问题     Estee Lauder, a very successful business leader, died on April 24th, 2004, at the age of 97. She had sold beauty products for more than 70 years. Her business, the Estee Lauder Companies, began on the streets of New York City.
    Estee’s parents had come to America from Hungary. They did not have much money. But they did have a beautiful daughter.
    Estee’s uncle was a chemist. Together, they worked to develop skin care creams in the 1920s when Estee was still a teenager. She took her products to New York City and stopped women on the street. She let them try the creams for free, calling the products "jars of hope".
    Soon, young Estee was selling the products to large stores that sold things to wealthy women. She wrote powerful marketing messages such as "I have the secrets" or "start the New Year with a new face." She also used many smart sales tricks.
    Estee Mentzer married Joseph Lauder in 1930. He became her business partner. Estee Lauder once said, "I never dreamed about success. I worked for it." In 1995, she decided she had worked long enough, so she retired. Today, her two sons and a grandson lead the Esstee Lauder Companies. The business is worth about ten thousand million dollars. It employs more than 20 thousand people.
Which of the following statements is NOT true about Estee Lauder?
选项 A、Her parents were from Hungary.
B、She was a successful business leader.
C、She was good at sales when she was young.
D、She began to dream about her success since she was a young girl.
答案D
解析 判断是非题。参考文章第一、二、四段内容，可以判断[A]、[B]、[C] 都与文章事实相符。唯有[D]项与最后一段的“I never dreamed about success, I worked for it”不符合。故答案是[D]。
