"My dear love; those lazy boys need something to wake them up. There are bound to be jobs going. "

　　" Is that her point in settling here? Surely as a woman she has simply taken a fancy to the place. "

　　" Nonsense, my love, how little you've noticed the world has changed. She's got a first-rate degree and some sort of business qualification, I'm told. She surely needs one of our boys! Perhaps you might give her a call. "

　　" Me? No. Perhaps you can take an interest. You still have your looks, after all. She may even offer you a job. " "Oh, that's not likely. These new chances belong to the younger generation. But now you mention it, I think I'll go along all the same. "

　　And Mrs Bennet went along. That was 10 years ago. She is now managing director of a FTSE-listed company.

　　... It would remain the case, of course, that Mrs Bennet would be one of very few women on the company board, that her salary would be lower than her male colleagues, her bonus of a more "female" dimension and her lifespan (年限) among the city's business leaders shorter than theirs. Still, she'd no doubt have enjoyed Davos—and might even have hobnobbed (攀谈) with influential figures.

　　67. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

　　A. Austen was born 200 years ago.

　　B. Austen rewrote Pride and Prejudice.

　　C. Austen's success lies in her wisdom.
