答案与解析
16.A 结合下文可知狄更斯最开始写书是因为自己爱好,而不是为了家庭、朋友或学校。
17.C be willing to do sth.“愿意做某事”。他想可能有人会愿意读他写的故事,因此他才给出版商寄稿件。
18.D 由后文“The publisher did not know who wrote them”可知狄更斯没在稿件上签名。
19.A others在此泛指其他的故事。
20.B 因为出版社不知道稿件的作者是谁,狄更斯自然也不会收到“receive”稿费。
21.D 看到他的书出版了,他很高兴。
22.C publishing company出版公司。
23.B hire sb. to do sth.雇用某人做某事。
24.A 动词的ing形式作定语,修饰前边的The Pickwick Papers。
25.D as引导时间状语从句,相当于when。《匹克威克外传》描述了匹克威克先生和他的朋友们在伦敦游历时的冒险经历。
26.C 固定句式:It is+adj.+for sb. to do sth.“做某事对某人来说是……的”。
27.B know so much about ...“对……很了解”。
28.A 动词需用副词修饰,sell well“畅销”。
29.C 既然他的书很畅销,想必他不用再受穷了。

31.D 人们喜欢读他的文章。
32.C earn one's living“谋生”,他的写作技巧使他得以谋生。
33.A the next+时间段=the following+时间段,用于描述过去“接下来的……时间里”。
34.D a large number of“大量的”,适合语境;a few“一些”,few“几乎没有”,不符合上下文语意;当修饰的名词前没有定冠词、形容词性物主代词等限定词时,many直接修饰名词,不用加of。
35.B 空格处及后文作定语从句,先行词既有人又有物,且关系词在从句中作名词性成分,只能用that引导。

C
A herring (鲱鱼) once decided to swim right around the world. “I'm tired of the North Sea,” she said.“I want to find out what else there is in the world.” So she swam off south. Once she was nearly eaten by a shark.
But she swam on and on. Round the tip of Africa and into the Indian Ocean, she was amazed by the different shapes and sizes and colors of other fishes. And on she swam through the wide Pacific. Then she turned north and finally she swam home into her own North Sea.
All her friends and relations gathered around. They had a big feast and offered her the very best food they could find, but the herring said, “I've swum around the whole world, and I've eaten more wonderful dishes than you could possibly imagine.” And she refused to eat anything. Then her friends and relations asked her to come home and live with them. But she refused.“I've been everywhere and that old rock is too dull and small for me.”And she went off and lived on her own.
When the breeding (繁殖) season came, she refused to join in the spawning (产卵), saying, “I know how many fishes there are in the world. I can't be interested in herrings anymore.”
Finally, one old herring swam up to her and said, “Listen, if you don't spawn with us, some herring eggs will not turn into healthy young herrings. If you don't live with your fa mily, you'll make them sad and if you don't eat, you'll die.”
But the herring said, “I don't mind. I've seen everything there is to see, and now I know everything there is to know.”
“I don't know,” said the old herring. “But there may be something.”
Just then, a fishing boat came by, and all the herrings were caught in a net and taken to market that day. A man bought the herring and ate her for his supper, and he never knew that she had swum right around the world and had seen everything there was to see, and knew everything there was to know.
