第三部分：阅读理解（共20小题，每小题2分，满分40分）

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。

A

There was an American writer who often told such a story to his friends and readers.

It was an exhibition of the artists’ works organized by the Red Cross. I was invited as a special guest to take part in the exhibition. During this period, two cute girls of 16 or 17 years old came to me and asked for my signature(签名).

“I haven’t brought my pen. Is the pencil okay?” I asked. In fact I knew they wouldn’t refuse. I just wanted to show a well-known writer’s good manners to the common readers.

“Certainly,” the young girls readily agreed. I could see they were very excited. Of course, their excitement also made me more pleased with myself. One of the girls handed her notebook to me. I took out my pencil, wrote a few words of encouragement, and signed my name. The girl read my signature, frowned(皱眉), looked at me carefully and asked, “Aren’t you Robert Charboss?”

“NO,” I told her proudly, “I’m the author of Alice Adams, the winner of two Pulitzer Prizes.”

The young girl turned to another one, and said, “Mary, lend your eraser to me.”

At the moment, all my pride turned into a bubble (泡沫) immediately. Since then, I always warn myself：Don’t think too highly of yourself even though you are so outstanding(杰出的).

56. The writer went to the exhibition because he .

A. would put out his new book
