M: Professor Barlow, why was Eleanor Roosevelt such an important woman in US history?
W: Well, [1]she was a very unusual woman. In her times, she did things that most women didn’t do.
M: Like what, for example?
W: Well, she worked in politics. When her husband was governor of New York, [2]he became sick and he couldn’t walk. So Eleanor did some of his work.
M: She traveled a lot for him, didn’t she?
W: Yes, [2]she traveled around New York and made political speeches for her husband. And she really enjoyed it.
M: And what did people in New York think of her then?
W: They loved her! So then, in 1933, when FDR became president of the US, Eleanor was already popular. She became a new kind of first lady. Mt What do you mean?
W: Well, most first ladies wouldn’t very independent. But Eleanor wanted to be different. She had her own ideas, and she wanted to speak out about them.
M: What kind of ideas? Can you give me an example?
W: Sure. Eleanor wanted every person to go to school and have a good job. She especially wanted to help women, children, and the poor people. And she wanted peace in the world. So she spoke out her ideas. She wrote in newspapers; she spoke on the radio; and she travelled all over the world.
M: I know people everywhere respected her.
W: Yes, she was so strong and independent, and she really wanted to help people. But some people didn’t like her.
M: Really?
W: Look, [3]Eleanor was not a traditional woman. Some people said she was too strong and independent. They even said she was ugly.
M: Really?! How did Eleanor feel when she heard these things?
W: Well, Eleanor Roosevelt was a strong woman. So she just laughed.
M: Professor Barlow, there are so many books about Eleanor Roosevelt. Why did you want to write one, too?
W: Well, [4]I felt that most writers—especially men—didn’t really understand Eleanor’s life. I wanted to give a woman’s view.
M: What do you mean?
W: Well, for example, everybody knows that FDR was not a good husband. So, many people said that Eleanor was unhappy all her life.
M: And what do you think?
W: I think that’s not true. I mean, of course Eleanor was unhappy for a while. Her husband didn’t love her anymore. And she was angry. For two years, she couldn’t eat or sleep well. But as time passed, Eleanor’s feeling changed. She stopped feeling angry.
M: Really?
W: Yes, Eleanor saw that a good marriage wasn’t the only way for her to be happy. [5]She remembered the important lessons she learned from her teacher. Marie Souvestre. And she decided to have an independent life.
M: Professor Barlow, thank you for talking with me today.
W: My pleasure.

选项
A、Because she was President Roosevelt’s wife.
B、Because she was sympathetic toward women and the poor.
C、Because she was already popular when her husband became president in 1933.
D、Because she was unusual and did things that most women didn’t do.
答案
D
解析
①选项都以Because she开头,故本题问原因,由Roosevelt’s wife可知与罗斯福太太有关。
②对话开头,男士问女士为什么Eleanor Roosevelt在美国历史上是位重要的女人,女士同答说,她非常特别(very unusual),在那个时代做了大部分女性没有做的事。D项的表述与原文一致,为答案。A“冈为她是罗斯福总统的妻子”、B“因为她对女人和穷人有同情心”和C“因为她在1933年丈夫就任总统时已经很受欢迎了”都是对话提到的事实,但不能回答为什么她如此重要(such an important woman)这个问题。
