8. A。表示揪某人衣領(lǐng)時(shí),常用“動(dòng)詞+某人+by the collar”。這時(shí)有一只大手抓住作者的衣領(lǐng)把作者拎了起來(lái)。

She carried it with her,like“rocks in the stomach”.
“I finally decided to__5__about my experiences and my feelings.I__6__ it would be a good mental health exercise. I wanted to be rid of that company and those people, once and for all.__7__I wrote and wrote. It wasn't just a story that poured out-it was a whole__8__! My resentment (怨恨)___9__ my writing. The whole world would know how__10__ they were!”
“What__11__when the book came out?”
I asked BJ.
“Not much,” she replied, “The newspaper kept doing what it had__12__done. My feelings didn't__13__ them one bit, but it took me several more years to finally__14__my negative emotions. Finally, the time came when I decided to make amends (補(bǔ)償) for the angry things I had said about the company.
I__15__my former boss to dinner and made my__16__. I told him I was sorry for being so resentful. It was
a
great healing process for me.”
“What was the__17__outcome?” I asked her.
“Gratitude,”
she replied,
“Not only wasn't I resentful any more,
but I was grateful to the company.
If I hadn't had those__18__experiences, I would never have written a book. And the book became__19__successful-now in 21 languages. In short, my resentment gave way to gratitude.”
She smiled,“I owe them a debt of thanks for giving me such a great
tale to tell.”

1.C。由上句中的“這家報(bào)業(yè)集團(tuán)有100多年的歷史”可知,恰恰是它曾經(jīng)的輝煌阻礙了它現(xiàn)在的變革。

8.D。下文提到了the book,是暗示,故選D。
9.C。從上文事實(shí)可知,顯然內(nèi)心的怨氣促使她越寫(xiě)越多。 fuel原意為“供給燃料”,此處用其比喻義。
10.D。上文提到他們很守舊、管理僵化。在她看來(lái),這都是極其愚蠢的。
11.A。那么這本書(shū)寫(xiě)好之后又有什么變化呢?其他三項(xiàng)與語(yǔ)境不符。
