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.

A
解析
对话中女士提到,Eleanor非常独立,想帮助人们,但有些人不喜欢她,原因是她不是一个传统女性,有人说她太强悍独立。甚至有人说她丑。A项not a conventional woman与原文的not a traditional woman同义,为答案。B“她想帮助别人”、C“她希望世界和平”和D“她有一份好工作”都与问题无关。
