  Did Sarah Josepha Hale write “Mary’s Little Lamb,” the eternal nursery rhyme (儿歌) about girl named Mary with a stubborn lamb? This is still disputed, but it’s clear that the woman 26 for writing it was one of America’s most fascinating 27 . In honor of the poem publication on May 24,1830, here’s more about the 28 author’s life.

  Hale wasn’t just a writer, she was also a 29 social advocate, and she was particularly 30 with an ideal New England, which she associated with abundant Thanksgiving meals that she claimed had “a deep moral influence,” she began a nationwide 31 to have a national holiday declared that would bring families together while celebrating the 32 festivals. In 1863, after 17 years of advocacy including letters to five presidents, Hale got it. President Abraham Lincoln during the Civil War, issued a __33__ setting aside the last Thursday in November for the holiday.

  The true authorship of “Mary’s Little Lamb” is disputed. According to New England Historical Society, Hale wrote only one part of the poem, but claimed authorship. Regardless of the author, it seems that the poem was __34__by a real event. When young Mary Sawyer was followed to school by a lamb in 1816, it caused some problems. A bystander named John Roulstone wrote a poem about the event, then, at some point, Hale herself seems to have helped write it. However, if a 1916 piece by her great-niece is to be trusted, Hale claimed for the __35__of her life that “Some other people pretended that someone else wrote the poem”.

  M) supposed v. 假定 a.假定的

  N)traditional a. 传统的

  O) versatile a. 多面的;通用的

  26. reputed:空格处需要动词形式。 原句出现了but,先抑后扬,因此后面的词需要褒义且和介词for搭配,选择reputed最合适。

  27. characters: 空格处填入名词,前面有个one of 标志,呼应characters的名词复数。

  28. supposed:空格处填入形容词修饰名词author或life。第一段最后一句作用是引起下文。supposed在此表示“据说的,所谓的”。

  29. fierce: 空格填入形容词或副词,此句话突出了她在新英格兰理念倡导中的迫切,因此选择fierce最为合适。有考生会觉得fierce用法偏门,但是根据语境这是最合适选项。

  30. obsessed: 非常明显的be ~ with 搭配,此句围绕主人公迫切倡导新英格兰理念,情感态度最合适且复合动词搭配的是obsessed。

  31. campaign: 此空需要名词,此句话的意思是她发起了一场全国性的运动来呼吁全国性节日。因此campaign最为合适。

  32. traditional: 首先此空需要形容词,来修饰festival。前面有个while并列“一新一旧”两个节日,因此选择traditional最为合适。

  33. proclamation: 此空需要名词,且能和动词issue搭配。语境理解是总统颁布一个名词性东西,proclamation解释为“宣布,公告”,最为合适。

  34. inspired: 此空需要填入动词且和by搭配,根据语境理解,选择inspired最为合适。

  35. rest:此处填入名词,且和of her life搭配,惯用搭配“the rest of life”为合适。
