问题     Delta Goodrem says she’s learnt a lot over the past few years. But one little nugget of wisdom she’ll be taking with her when she moves to New York next month is the advice to keep her private life private.
    "Being in Australia and the U. K. definitely taught me a lot very young, " the 20-year-old girl said. "You make mistakes and go, okay, I need to protect myself here or I need to do this. And they(the media)can get any information they want from the past but I guess it is just a matter of keeping things more private. I don’t know exactly what I have learnt. All I know is that I have a totally different perspective on things now."
    Goodrem, who first became a household name as Nina Tucker on Neighbours, has rented an apartment in New York with Irish singer boyfriend Brian McFadden in a bid to break into the lucrative U. S. market. She will move to the U. S. following her Visualise national tour which kicks off officially this week.
    "I am not moving, " Goodrem said. "I still have my home in Sydney. I am just having a place to rent(in New York)because I can’t live out of a hotel. It is fine(living in hotels)but I have done it for quite a long time now and I feel like I’d like to have a base in the place I am going to be in. So Brian(McFadden)and I are renting a place. "
    Goodrem will release a hybrid of her first two albums, Innocent Eyes and Mistaken Identity, in the U. S. and recently did a series of showcase gigs to American music executives through her local label Sony BMG.
    For the moment, Goodrem is keenly focused on her first ever national tour, marking her first major live gigs since she underwent cancer treatment in 2003. The tour began with a preview show at the Newcastle Entertainment Centre on Sunday but officially starts on Friday in Perth before the singer performs dates in Adelaide, Melbourne, Brisbane, Canberra, Sydney and Hobart.
    "This is what I do, " she said. "This is what I have worked hard for. This is the first time I have got to do an arena show and I just want it to be really relaxed and enjoy it."
    Media reports leading into the tour have focused on poor ticket sales despite a number of shows selling out. But that doesn’t seem to bother the singer. "As long as those people in there think it is one of the best shows they have ever been to, then I am a very lucky girl, " she said. "You don’t worry if it is going to be full."
    Goodrem has sold millions of albums, enjoyed seven number-one singles and received eight ARIA awards from her two albums. She is undoubtedly one of the Australia’s most successful recording artists ever, and with the full support of Sony BMG’s U. S. label Columbia Records, Goodrem is likely to go well in the U.S.
Which of the following is INCORRECT according to the passage?
选项 A、Goodrem has enjoyed seven number-one singles.
B、Goodrem will live in New York permanently.
C、Goodrem first became a household name as Nina Tucker on neighbours.
D、Goodrem will perform dates in Adelaide, Melbourne and other places.
答案B
解析 细节题。文章第四段中Goodrem公开表示她不是搬家到美国，她的家依然在澳大利亚，所以[B]与原文不符，故为答案。[A]、[C]和[D]分别出现在文章倒数第一、第三和第四段。
