Little Lady Starts Big War
Harriet Beecher Stowe had poured her heart into her anti-slavery book "Uncle Tom's Cabin." (46) The publisher was so doubtful that he wanted her to split the publishing costs with him, and all she hoped was that it would make enough money for her to buy a new silk dress.
But when the first 5,000 copies were printed in 1852， they sold out in two days. In a year the book had sold 300,000 copies in the United States and 150,000 in England. (47) Within six months of its release, a play was made from the book which ran 350 performances in New York and remained America's most popular play for 80 years. It might appear that "Uncle Tom's Cabins was universally popular, but this was certainly not true. Many people during those pre-Civil War days--particularly defenders of the slavery system--condemned it as false propaganda and poorly written melodrama (传奇剧作品).
Harriet did have strong religious views against slavery (When asked how she came to write the book, she replied: "God wrote it."), and she tried to convince people slavery was wrong, so perhaps the book could be considered propaganda. (48)
Though she was born in Connecticut in 1832, as a young woman she moved to Cincinnati, Ohio, when her father accepted the presidency of newly founded Lane Theological Seminary (神学院). Ohio was a free state, but just across the Ohio River in Kentucky, Harriet saw slavery in action. (49) In 1851, Harriet Beecher Stowe began her book.
Its vast influence strengthened the anti-slavery movement and angered defenders of the slave system. (50)
In fact, when Abraham Lincoln met Harriet at the White House during the Civil War, he said, "So, this is the little lady who started this big war."
A She had read a lot about the slavery system
B Today some historians (历史学家) think that it helped bring on the American Civil War.
C But if so, it was true propaganda, because it accurately described the evils of slavery.
D For a while it outsold every book in the world, except the Bible
E But neither she nor her first publisher thought it would be a big success.
F She lived 18 years in Cincinnati, marrying Calvin Stowe, professor of a college.
46. E 47. D 48. C 49. F 50. B
Little Lady Starts Big War的答案与解析
第5部分：补全短文（第46～50题）
学员们，在作答这类题时，关键就是关注上下文。句子与句子之间是有联系的，所以理解其中的逻辑关系是很重要的。学员们千万要记住这一点。
46.E But neither she nor her first publisher thought it would be a big success.前面一句是说作者投入太多心血。后一句则说出版商并不看好这部作品。所以，46处需要有一个转折句。选项中共有两个转折句。逐一查看，我们发现C选项的意思与上下文不吻合。所以，选择E.
47. D For a while it outsold every book in the world, except the Bible联系前一句，我们知道了这本书很畅销，而后一句并没有说不好的方面，所以，我们可以初步推定要选的这个句子依然是有关于畅销方面的。所以，选择D.
48. C But if so, it was true propaganda, because it accurately described the evils of slavery联系上句，我们了解了这段文字叙述了作者反对奴隶制。因此，我们也要找到一个与奴隶制相关的句子与其搭配。A项虽然谈到奴隶制，但是并不符合语境。所以，选择C.
49. F She lived 18 years in Cincinnati, marrying Calvin Stowe, professor of a college.本段是对作家的一个简单的生平介绍。按照事情发展的顺序。所以，选择F.
50. B Today some historians （历史学家） think that it helped bring on the American Civil War.前一句论述说这部作品对于反对奴隶制有很大的影响力，而美国内战正是破除奴隶制的战争。所以，选择B.
