Mario Vargas Llosa was born in Arequipa, but from age one he lived in Cochabamba, Bolivia, where he was brought up by his mother and grandparents after his parents separated. However, Vargas Llosa once said that “I feel very much an Arequipan.” He also spent some time in Piura, northern Peru (1945～1946)． Vargas Llosa attended Leoncio Prado Military Academy (1950～1952), and Colegio Nacional San Miguel de Piura (1952). In 1955 he married Julia Urquidi; they divorced in 1964. From 1955 to 1957 Vargas Llosa studied literature and law at the University of San Marcos. He then attended graduate school at the University of Madrid, where he received his Ph. D. in 1959. In the 1950s, while still a student, Vargas Llosa worked as a journalist for La Industria. His first collection of short stories, LOS JEFES, appeared in 1959.“I liked Faulkner but I imitated Hemingway，” he said later. Vargas Llosa moved to Paris because he felt that in Peru he could not earn his living as a serious writer. Although the boom of Latin American fiction in the 1960s opened doors to some authors for commercial success, the great majority of Peruvian writers suffered from the problems of the country's publishing industry. In France Vargas Llosa worked as Spanish teacher, journalist and broadcaster. From the late 1960s Vargas Llosa worked as a visiting professor at many American and European universities. In 1970 Vargas Llosa moved to Barcelona and five years later he settled back in Peru. Most of his novels are set in Peru. In addition to the Nobel Prize, Vargas Llosa has received many other honors. Among the most notable are Leopoldo Alas Prize (1959), Peruvian National Prize (1967) and Miguel de Cervantes Prize (1994)． 語篇解讀：本文介紹的是2010年諾貝爾文學(xué)獎獲得者秘魯作家Vargas Llosa的人生經(jīng)歷。 1．What's the passage mainly about?

It's only a few thousand listeners，” said WGN's Steve Cochran. I smiled apprehensively, my heart pounding. I sat in the chair opposite to Steve in the studio while spectators outside pressed their noses against the windows to get a glance. Countless people told me this day wasn't possible; they said real authors weren't 15-year-olds and that my story wasn't good enough, I knew that I could only rely on one person to make this happen: me. Self-publishing was a great option to make my book a reality in a world that doubted my abilities. After two months of reading, writing and revising the manuscript, it was finally ready for publication. I remember coming home from school and seeing a brown box on the kitchen table. I tore open the box to see five copies of my finished book. Thick staples (訂書釘) had held together the stories I used to create when I was three, and that day began my official journey as an author but I hungered for more than just a published book. I didn't have an agent. In fact, all I had was a check for $15.54. I began e-mailing every newspaper I could think of and soon, I was featured in many but still wanted more publicity and so I began writing for radio stations. I was interviewed on two, but when I found out that I would be on WGN, I was at a loss for words. Like the home-made books created with crayons (蠟筆) and pencils that turned into professional pieces of art, I came out of my box the same day my books did. I changed from a shy, terrified girl filled with dreams to an outgoing, confident young lady who made her dreams a reality. “Are you ready to go on? ”Steve asked. I smiled and said, “Yes, I am.” 語篇解讀：作者是一名15歲的少年作家，本文講述了作者努力將自己的作品出版的過程，為此一家電臺對她進行了采訪。 5．Steve Cochran's words gave some________ to the author.

It's only a few thousand listeners”可知Steve Cochran的話語給作者帶來了一些鼓勵。 6．The author thought she could succeed________． A．by depending on countless people B．with the help of her agents C．by depending on herself D．with the help of her parents 解析：選C　細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段第二句“I knew that I could only rely on one person to make this happen: me.”可知，作者認為成功取決于自己。 7．How long has the author written her book? A．For about 15 years. B．For about 12 years. C．For about 9 years. D．For about 6 years. 解析：選B　推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段首句可知作者15歲；根據(jù)第三段最后一句可知作者在3歲的時候開始寫作，故作者用了12年的時間才完成了這本書。 8．The author's interview on WGN would be her________ one on radio stations. A．first B．second C．third D．fourth 解析：選C　推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段最后一句“I was interviewed on two, but when I found out that I would be on WGN, I was at a loss for words.”可知， 在WGN是作者第三次接受電臺采訪，正確答案為C。 9．According to the last paragraph, the author felt________． A．uncertain of her interview and future B．herself still the same girl as before C．shy and fearful for the coming interview D．well ready for the coming interview 解析：選D　細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段中“I changed from a shy, terrified girl filled with dreams to an outgoing, confident young lady who made her dreams a reality.”可知，作者變得外向和自信，根據(jù)最后作者的回答“Yes, I am.”可知，作者已經(jīng)對即將開始的采訪做好了準備。 [湖南專用] Ⅲ.閱讀理解(同江蘇、安徽專用B篇) Ⅳ.閱讀簡答 One tends to go out for a jog, walk or even hit the gym, if the weather is pleasant outside.

So, What do you do in such a situation? Well, it's not very difficult. Look around the house and you will find many creative ways to exercise. For example, you can take up some housework. Clean the stove, tidy your garage, move the furniture, sweep the floor of your bedroom and change the bed sheet. Doing these things can burn your calories and lift your mood.
