阅读下面短文,按照要求完成各题。
One of the most famous English writers was a woman called Jane Austen who lived in the late 18th century.At that time English women from educated, middle class families did not work-that is, they did not have jobs or work for money.Instead, they stayed at home to do things like organizing the house, sewing, reading books and writing letters.
Jane Austen was an unusual woman because she was determined to be a writer.She wanted to write about the ordinary lives of young women like herself-their hopes, dreams and problems.She finished her first novel when she was only 20 years old.By the time she was 24, she had finished two more.
Jane’s only problem was that no one wanted to publish her novels.Her father sent one to a publisher, but he refused to look at it.He didn’t think anyone would want to read about women’s lives.For fourteen years, Jane’s work remained unpublished and unread.
Finally, Jane decided she had waited long enough.She chose one of her novels Sense and Sensibility, and paid to have it published herself.Jane’s gamble(赌博)paid off.To the publisher’s surprise, every one of her books was sold.The publisher realized that women’s novels were interesting and agreed to publish all her other novels.
Jane Austen completed six books altogether, and all of them are still being read today.In the last few years, several of her novels have been made into films, including Sense and Sensibility, the novel which she had to publish herself all those years ago.
During Jane’s lifetime, some people looked down upon her novels.They said that no one would want to read about women and women’s lives.They believed that men’s lives were much more important and interesting.Now we know that they were very wrong.In fact, Jane Austen’s novels are wonderful because they tell us ________.They give us the details of life which are not recorded in history books.Her novels show us that although nearly 200 years have passed, and modern life is very different, people are still basically the same.
