B．A magazine.C．The Internet. D．A report.BThe Lord of the Rings, one of the best sellers in the new millennium (千年), was made up of three parts—The Fellowship of the Ring, Two Towers, and The Return of the King. Millions upon millions of people have read it in over 25 different languages, but fewer know about the author and the history of the composition of the creative masterwork.John Ronald Reuel Tolkien was born in South Africa in 1892.His parents died when he was a child.Living in England with his aunt, Tolkien and his cousins made up play languages, a hobby that led to Tolkien's becoming skilled in Welsh, Greek, Gothic, Old Norse and Anglo－Saxon.After graduating from Oxford, Tolkien served in World War I. In 1917, while recovering from trench fever, he began composing the mythology (神话) for The Rings. As a professor of Anglo －Saxon in 1930s at Oxford, Tolkien was part of an informal discussion group called the Inklings, which included several writers. The group was soon listening to chapters of Tolkien's imaginative work The Hobbit.Hobbit was a name Tolkien created for local people that could best be described as half －sized members of the English rural (乡村的) class. Hobbit live in hillside holes. One of them, Bilbo Baggins, looks for treasures with a group of dwarves (侏儒). On the way, he meets the twisted, pitiful creature Gollum, from whom he sees a golden ring that makes the holder invisible.One of Tolkien's students persuaded her employer, publisher Allen & Unwin, to look at a draft (草稿)．The chairman of the firm, Stanley Unwin, thought that the best judge for a children's book would be his ten－year－old son. The boy earned a shilling for reporting back that the adventure was exciting, and The Hobbit, was published in 1937.It sold so well that Unwin asked for a continuation.Over a dozen years later, in 1954, Tolkien produced The Lord of the Rings, a series of books so creative that they hold readers—new and old—after their publication.21．What can we learn from the text?A．The Lord of the Rings didn't sell well in the last millennium.B．People know better about Tolkien himself than about his works.C．Tolkien was quite familiar with Old English.D．Tolkien knew very well about different kinds of local languages in Africa.22．What can we learn about Hobbit that Tolkien created in his works?A．Hobbit was a race living in English downtown areas.B．Hobbit was a group of local people who were very tall and strong.C．Hobbit was a social group of people who lived in old castles.D．Hobbit was a group of people who were mostly dwarves.23．Which of the following helped most in making The Hobbit published?A．One of Tolkien's students.B．Stanley Unwin's son.C．Allen & Unwin.D．Bilbo Baggins.24．What is mainly discussed in the text?A．The Lord of the Rings and its writer.B．A completely new masterwork in the new millennium.C．A famous professor at Oxford University.D．The power of the magic ring.25．Which of the following shows the right order of Mr J．R. R. Tolkien's life experience?a．He had his The Hobbit published.b．He became a member of the Inklings.c．He served in World War I.d．He became an undergraduate at Oxford.e．His work The Lord of the Rings came to the world.f．He moved to England to live with his aunt.A．f－d－b－c－a－e B．f－d－c－b－a－eC．f－c－d－b－e－a D．d－f－c－a－b－e答案课时作业(二十六)Ⅰ.本文是一篇记叙文。
