Unit 3 The Million Pound Bank Note.阅读理解The 2014 Nobel Prize in Literature went to the French novelist for“the art of memory with which he has evoked the most ungraspable human destinies and uncovered the life-world of the occupation”.Although the 69-year-old writer is a very popular literary figure in France,he is little known elsewhere.So who is this Patrick Modiano,why does his memory have such an influence upon him,and what exactly has he uncovered?Modiano was born in a suburb of Paris right after World War ended in Europe in July 1945.His father was a Jewish Italian businessman, who met his Belgian actress mother during the Nazi occupation of Paris.As The New Yorker magazine put it,Europeans born in 1945 shared a conditionThey escaped the war,but not “the taint (污点) of the war”.Modianos life has been influenced by Nazi Germanys occupation during the war and his familys connections with it.According to New York-based newspaper The Forward,his father survived the war dishonorably.When Paris Jews were brought together to be sent to concentration camps,the businessman did not join them but spent the time making money from deals with Nazis on the black market.“The novelist has a duty to record the lives of the people who have disappeared and the people who have been made to disappear,” French writer Clemence Boulouque,also an expert in Jewish studies,told The New Yorker magazine.In his more than three dozen novels,Modiano has returned again and again to the same themes:Jewishness,the Nazi occupation,and the loss of identity.His most admired novel,Missing Person,is a good example.Its a story about a detective who has lost his memory.He tries to find out who he really is by following his own steps through history.Although Modianos win is a surprise outside France,people are celebrating in his home country.Modiano is the 15th French literature winner.After Le Clezios 2008 win,it seemed unlikely that there would be another so soon.1.The passage is mainly about.A.a literary figures personal affairsB.a famous novelists family backgroundC.a Nobel Prize winner and his literary achievementsD.Europeans sufferings during World War 2.Which of the following statements about Patrick Modiano is TRUE according to the passage?A.He is a survivor of World War .B.He tried to find his lost identity.C.World War has an impact on his life.D.He was world-famous before winning the Nobel Prize.3.Modiano won the Nobel Prize because of.A.his extraordinary character B.his unique way of recording history C.his characters unusual experiencesD.his special connections with the war4.It can be inferred from the passage that.A.Modianos parents were sent to the concentration camp B.Modianos winning the Nobel Prize was beyond expectationsC.Modianos father had nothing to do with the Nazis D.Clemence Boulouque is also of Jewish origin.七选五Money MattersParents should help their children understand money. 1 So you may start talking about money when your child shows an interest in buying things, candy or toys, for example. 1.The basic function of moneyExplain the basic function of money by showing how people trade money for goods or services.
