Jane Austen, a famous English writer, was born at Steventon, Hampshire, on December 16, 1775, and died on July 18, 1817. She began writing early in life, although the prejudices (偏见) of her times forced her to have her books published anonymously (匿名)．
But Jane Austen is perhaps the best known and best loved of Bath's many famous local people and visitors. She paid two long visits here during the last five years of the eighteenth century and from 1801 to 1806, Bath was her home. Her deep knowledge of the city is fully seen in two of her novels, Northanger Abbey and Persuasion, which are largely set in Bath. The city is still very much as Jane Austen knew it, keeping in its streets and public buildings the well-ordered world that she described so well in her novels. Now the pleasure of learning Jane Austen's Bath can be enhanced (增强) by visiting the Jane Austen Centre in Gay Street. Here, in a Georgian town house in the heart of the city, you can find out more about Bath in Jane Austen's time and the importance of Bath in her life and work.
The Centre has been set up with the help and guidance of members of the Jane Austen Society. After your visit to the Centre, you can look round the attractive shop, which offers a huge collection of Jane Austen related books, cards and many specially designed gifts. Jane Austen quizzes are offered to keep the children busy.
You can also have walking tours of Jane Austen's Bath, which is a great way to find out more about Jane Austen and discover the wonderful Georgian city of Bath. The tour lasts about one and a half hours. The experienced guides will take you to the places where Jane lived, walked and shopped.
6．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A．Austen once lived in Bath during the last five years of the eighteenth century. B．Austen knew very well about Bath.
C．The shop there offers books signed by Austen.
D．The city was built according to what was described in Austen's novels. 答案：B 细节判断题。从第二段第二句可知，奥斯汀在巴斯居住的时间是1801～1806年，应排除A项：根据第二段第三句“Her deep knowledge of the city...”判断，奥斯汀对巴斯非常了解；根据第三段可知，那里的商店可提供与奥斯汀有关的书籍，但不可能是她签名的，因为她于1817年去世了；第二段介绍巴斯这座城市时，说到奥斯汀小说中大部分是以巴斯这座城市为背景而写的。
7．Jane Austen paid two long visits to Bath ________. A．in her early twenties C．in her late twenties
B．in her early teens D．in her late teens
答案：A 细节推断题。简·奥斯汀出生于1775年，第二段第二句话告诉读者她在18世纪的最后5年(1795～1799)两次参观巴斯，可推算是在她20多岁的初期。
8．What can we learn about Bath from the passage? A．Bath has greatly changed since Jane Austen's death. B．The city has changed as much as Jane Austen knew it. C．Bath remains almost the same as in Jane Austen's time. D．No changes have taken place in Bath since Jane Austen's time.
答案：C 细节理解题。根据第二段中间“The city is still very much as Jane Austen knew it, keeping in its streets and public buildings the well-ordered world that she described so well in her novels.”可知，这所城市和简·奥斯汀当时的情况依然很相像。
9．The author writes this passage in order to ________. A．attract readers to visit the city of Bath B．ask readers to buy Austen's books
C．tell readers about Jane Austen's experience D．give a brief introduction to the Austen Society
答案：A 作者意图题。文章第一段介绍了著名作家奥斯汀以引起读者的兴趣，从第二
段开始文章介绍奥斯汀曾对巴斯进行两次长期造访、曾于1801～1806年居住于巴斯，现在的巴斯和当时几乎一样，并建有奥斯汀中心，这些都是为了吸引人们到巴斯来参观。
10．It takes you about one and a half hours ________. A．to get to the Jane Austen Centre in Gay Street B．to buy Jane Austen related books, cards and gifts C．to find a guide to take you to the Centre D．to look around the city of Bath on foot
