3、h. I merely determined to make a list of all the books I had ever read. Strict with myself, I included only once a title I might have read several times. (How, after all, could one read a book more than once?) And I included only those books over a hundred pages in length. (Could anything shorter be
4、 a book?)
There was yet another high school list I made. One day I came across a newspaper article about an English professor at a nearby state college. The article had a list of the “hundred most important books of Western Civilization.” “More than anything else in my life,” the professor told th
5、e reporter with finality, “these books have made me all that I am.” That was the kind of words I couldn’t ignore. I kept the list for the several months it took me to read all of the titles. Most books, of course, I hardly understood. While reading Plato's The Republic, for example, I needed to keep

本文主要講述了作者中學時期的閱讀經(jīng)歷。
36. A 細節(jié)理解題。 從第一段后半部分可以看出,作者在聽到老師有關閱讀的意見以后,就開始爭取讀盡量多的書,并把自己讀過的書都列成了一個書目。
37. A 細節(jié)理解題。 從第一段可以得知,作者并不是只讀超過l00頁的書,更不是只是反復地讀一本書,更沒有關于他學著自己教育自己的表述。
38. A 詞義猜測題。 在他的一生中,是他所閱讀過的這些書使他取得了如今的成就。根據(jù)上下文的理解,我們可以推測這位科學家是很“堅定地”跟記者說的。
