Released to theaters between 2001 and 2003, the films were seen and loved by audiences all over the world. As a result of the films success, there has been a renewed interest in the original books by J.R.R. Tolkien.Tolkien had originally planned LOTR as a sequel (续篇) to his earlier novel The Hobbit. Because that book had been so popular, his publisher (出版商) wanted him to continue the story. Tolkien, a language professor at university, warned him that he was a slow writer, but no one expected that he would need 12 years to finish LOTR! Whats more, the book took another six years to be published because of several other difficulties.Tolkien had trouble deciding how to begin the story. Although he tried several times, the plot (情节) and the characters would not resolve themselves in his mind. He didnt have the ideas he needed, and it took him another two years to decide what direction he wanted to take. Moreover, he had to stop writing for a period of time during the early 1940s because he was too busy teaching. In 1949, he finally finished writing it.LOTR was written as a single book, but at the time of its publication(出版) in the early 1950s, Britain was still recovering from World War II (WWII). Many important things were in short supply, including paper. Because of the paper shortage（缺乏）, Tolkiens publisher decided to divide LOTR into three books. Since then, the three books have been translated into about 40 languages and have sold millions of copies worldwide. What began as a fantasy (奇幻) story for children is now seen as a major work of 20th-century literature.14. What happened after the release of the three films?A. Fantasy novels attracted new interest.B. Tolkien decided to continue the long story.C. Peter Jackson became accepted by the public.D. The original books saw a rise in peoples interest.15. Which is closest in meaning to resolve in Paragraph 3?A. Follow. B. Change.C. Become clear. D. Become popular.16. Why does the author mention WWII?A. To suggest Tolkien fought in the war.B. To show Tolkien was short of writing paper.C. To explain why LOTR was divided into three books.D. To describe how the original LOTR was destroyed in the war.CI was nine when I arrived at the Childrens Home in Nashua, New Hampshire, in 1965.
