　　[A] The first published sketch, "A Dinner at Polar Walk" brought tears to Dickens's eyes when he discovered it in the pages of The Monthly Magazine From then on his sketches, which appeared under the pen name "Boz" in The Evening Chronicle, earned him a modest reputation.

　　[B] The runaway success of The Pickwick Papers, as it is generally known today, secured Dickens's fame. There were Pickwick coats and Pickwick cigars, and the plump, spectacled hero, Samuel Pickwick, because a national figure.

　　[C] Soon after Sketches by Boz appeared, a publishing firm approached Dickens to write a story in monthly installments, as a backdrop for a series of woodcuts by the then-famous artist Robert Seymour, who had originated the idea for the story. With characteristic confidence, Dickens successfully insisted that Seymour's pictures illustrate his own story instead. After the first installment, Dickens wrote to the artist and asked him to correct a drawing Dickens felt, was not faithful enough to his prose. Seymour made the change, went into his backyard, and expressed his displeasure by committing suicide. Dickens and his publishers simply pressed on with a new artist. The comic novel, The Posthumous Papers of the Pickwick Club, appeared serially in 1836 and 1837 and was first published in book form in 1837.

　　[D] Charles Dickens is probably the best-known and, to many people, the greatest English novelist of the 19th century. A moralist, satirist, and social reformer, Dickens crafted complex plots and striking characters that capture the panorama of English society.

　　[E]Soon after his father's release from prison, Dickens got a better job as errand boy in law offices. He taught himself shorthand to get an even better job later as a court stenographer and as a reporter in Parliament. At the same time, Dickens, who had a reporter's eye for transcribing the life around him, especially anything comic or odd, submitted short sketches to obscure magazines.

　　[F] Dickens was born in Portsmouth, on England's southern coast. His father was a clerk in the British Navy Pay office -- a respectable position, but with little social status. His paternal grandparents, a steward and a housekeeper, possessed even less status, having been servants, and Dickens later concealed their background. Dicken's mother supposedly came from a more respectable family. Yet two years before Dicken's birth, his mother's father was caught stealing and fled to Europe, never to return. The family's increasing poverty forced Dickens out of school at age 12 to work in Warren's Blacking Warehouse, a shoe-polish factory, where the other working boys

　　mocked him as "the young gentleman." His father was then imprisoned for debt. The humiliations of his father's imprisonment and his labor in the blacking factory formed Dickens's greatest wound and became his deepest secret. He could not confide them even to his wife, although they provide the unacknowledged foundation of his fiction.

　　[G] After Pickwick, Dickens plunged into a bleaker world. In Oliver Twist, he traces an orphan's progress from the workhouse to the criminal slums of London. Nicholas Nickleby, his next novel, combines the darkness of Oliver Twist with the sunlight of Pickwick. The popularity of these novels consolidated Dickens' as a nationally and internationally celebrated man of letters.

　　【解析】排序題關鍵是收尾相接，要緊緊牢記大綱的考點“一致性和銜接性”。也就是要想選出下一題首先要確定上段的尾句在說什么，做到上一段的尾句和要選擇的段落首句銜接。41題取決于給出的首段D選線。D選項起到統(tǒng)領全文的作用，主要對狄更斯進以及他的作品進行了總體的評價和概括：狄更斯對于大多數(shù)人來說是英國知名的、偉大的小說家，他是一名道德家、諷刺家以及社會先驅(qū)者，他的小說情節(jié)曲折、人物性格鮮明，捕捉到了英國社會的全景。那么對于這類人物自傳式的文章，后面會先減少其生平。縱觀各選項，不難發(fā)現(xiàn)F選項首句出現(xiàn)Dickens was born in Portsmouth, on England's southern coast，各位考生要把握was born出生這個關鍵詞。因此，41題選擇F選項。下載考研萬題庫 觀看逐題權威視頻解析

　　【解析】要想做出42題，關鍵是理解41題F選項，尤其是F選項的后面一部分。我們認真研讀F選項的后半段一直在介紹狄更斯童年經(jīng)歷中他父親所起到的作用，介紹他的父親由于債務被關進了監(jiān)獄，這給狄更斯帶了羞恥感以及后面他在黑工廠做工的經(jīng)歷對他性格的行程都起到了很大的作用。于是我們?yōu)g覽各選項首句，發(fā)現(xiàn)E選項開頭Soon after his father's release from prison，出現(xiàn)了很關鍵的線索詞，即他的父親被釋放后，因此E可以接在4題F選項的后面。所以，42題選擇E選項。下載考研萬題庫 觀看逐題權威視頻解析
