The city is not so foggy as it was in 1952,when Margery Allingham published “The Tiger in the Smoke,” or as socially stratified as it when Marianne Dashwood waited in “Sense and Sensibility” for a suitor who never called;or as greedy as it was in the thrusting 1980s of Martin Amis’ “Money.” But it is all of those Londons,an accrual of different descriptions and eras.It is a city made for description—reread the first passages of “Bleak House,” also on the subject of fog,for a moody introduction—and one that so respects its authors that it buried a number of the best ones in style,in Westminster Abbey.
There are plenty of organized literarythemed tours around the city,easily found on the Internet.Or you can wander characteristically on your own,which is more fun.If you take the Tube or the bus,make sure to carry a book.
1.What can we infer from the first paragraph?
A.Most people of London like visiting museums.
B.No Londoners go to cinemas to see the films.
C.A majority of Londoners are book lovers.
D.All the Londoners like to walk in the rain.
解析:推理判断题。根据本段中museum lovers可知,“伦敦人喜欢去参观博物馆”,但不像A项所说的most people of London,故不能选;第一段中并没有提及是否有人去看电影,但也无法排除B项正误;文中提到了people who like to walk in the rain,但这只是many different Londons的部分,文中并没有提及是 all;根据本段最后一句 But richest of all,perhaps,is the London for book lovers.可知C项正确。
