课时分层作业(十三)　Section Ⅰ (建议用时：35分钟) [高考题型练习提能力] Ⅰ.阅读理解 A J. K. Rowling turned another year older this week. Born Joanne Rowling, J. K. Rowling is, of course, her adopted pen name. Concerned that young boys might not go for a book written by a woman, her publisher suggested she come up with a pseudonym(笔名). So, upon combining her first initial with the initial of her paternal grandmother, Kathleen, the moniker J. K. Rowling was born. That's the interesting fact about Rowling, apparently, and she can only fool some of the people some of the time. Back in 2013, a crime novel appeared on the shelves. It was entitled The Cuckoo's Calling, and it was written by Robert Galbraith. According to Galbraith's bio, he spent “several years with the Royal Military Police” and the leading character of his novel, a fellow by the name of Cormoran Strike, “grew directly out of his own experiences and those of his military friends.” Only, upon further review, he didn't! The book was actually penned by J. K. Rowling, who apparently wanted to try and sell a novel based on complete craftsmanship rather than on her name. Unfortunately, however, the wife of a partner in the media in whom she placed her trust, shared the secret on Twitter. Rowling was angry and disappointed concerning the betraying of trust. I'm not sure whether I would be terribly upset for too long，if I were her. Previous to her being known as the author，Rowling saw her book listed 4，709th on Amazon. After the big revelation, her book jumped all the way to No. 1! More importantly, I think she got what she wanted. The novel has received nearly universal critical acclaim. Rowling passed her own test with flying colors. Clearly, she's pretty good at her craft! In any case, I personally look forward to reading her newest writing endeavor. 【语篇解读】　本文主要报道了J.K.
