问题     George Bernard Shaw, the greatest British dramatist (居作家) of the first half of the 20th century, was born in Dublin, Ireland. His father was a man who drank too much and could not support his family properly. His mother was a disappointed, unhappy woman who found more pleasure in studying music than in her children. Bernard and his two sisters received little love and attention from their parents when they were young.
    Shaw was a good, bright, curious student in his school years. At fifteen, he went to work in an office. After five years, he decided that he wanted to be a writer, so he left Ireland then and went to London, where he began to write seriously.
    On September 2, 1882, Shaw’s ideas on socialism suddenly took shape (成形) when he attended the lecture by an American economist Henry George. The lecture led him to recognize that economics must be at the centre of socialist thought. He studied Karl Marx’s Das Kapital and attended a Marxist reading circle on September 5, 1884, eight months after its founding.
    In 1898, Shaw married a wealthy, independent woman named Charlotte Payne Townshend. They lived happily together until her death in 1943.
    By 1915, Shaw’s international fame was firmly established (树立) and his plays were staged (上演) in many countries all over the world, from Britain to Japan. Shaw won the Nobel Prize for literature (文学) in 1925. He came to China in 1932 and 15ecame a friend of Lu Xun, when he was 76 years old.
    He died on November 2, 1950. It was reported that on the night of his death, theatres around the world were darkened ill his honour.
According to this article, a Marxist reading circle was founded ______.
选项 A、on Sept. 5, 1884
B、in Jarl. 1884
C、on Sept. 2, 1882
D、in May, 1885
答案B
解析 此题为细节信息推论题。其中关键词是Marxist reading circle．．．founded。从各选项中得知此试题与时间信息有关。先在文章中找出上述关键词的出处(第3段末句：attended a Marxist reading circle on September 5，1884，eight months after its founding)，从中知道他是在马克思著作阅读小组成立八个月之后加入其中的，而他加入的时间为1884年9月5日。由此可推算出，马克思阅读小组成立于1884年1月，故B项是正确答案。
