Did Sarah Josepha Hale write “Mary’s Little Lamb,” the eternal nursery rhyme（儿歌)about

Did Sarah Josepha Hale write “Mary’s Little Lamb,” the eternal nursery rhyme(儿歌)about girl named Mary with a stubborn lamb？ This is still disputed, but it’s clear that the woman 26 reputed for writing it was one of America’s most fascinating 27 characters. In honor of the poem publication on May 24,1830, here’s more about the 28 supposed author’s life.Hale wasn’t just a writer, she was also a 29 fierce social advocate, and she was particularly 30 obsessed with an ideal New England, which she associated with abundant Thanksgivinx xg meals that she claimed had “a deep moral influence,” she began a nationwide 31 campaign to have a national holiday declared that would bring families together while celebrating the 32 traditional festivals. In 1863, after 17 years of advocacy including letters to five presidents, Hale got it. President Abraham Lincoln during the Civil War, issued a 33 proclamation setting aside the last Thursday in November for the holiday.The true authorship of “Mary’s Little Lamb” is disputed. According to New England Historical Society, Hale wrote only one part of the poem, but claimed authorship. Regardless of the author, it seems that the poem was 34 inspired by a real event. When young Mary Sawyer was followed to school by a lamb in 1816, it caused some problems. A bystander named John Roulstone wrote a poem about the event, then, at some point, Hale herself seems to have helped write it. However, if a 1916 piece by her great-niece is to be trusted, Hale claimed for the 35 rest of her life that “Some other people pretended that someone else wrote the poem”.

Most people have typewriters and can type well prefer to type 【M1】______ their letters no

wadays. There was a feeling a generation ago that typewriting was not quite proper in social correspondence, but, in the United States at least, the prejudice of typewriting much social 【M2】______ correspondence has disappeared. Many people, as a matter of fact, prefer that letters written to them to be prepared on the typewriter, 【M3】______ since it makes them easier to read. Typewriting becomes fashionable with the development of social patterns. Mark Twain is reputed to being the worlds first 【M4】______ author to use a typewriter. His manuscript. for Life on the Mississippi arrived at the publisher neatly set down in typewritten form. On the 【M5】______ other hand, the objections to the typewriter are that it is less personal and that it suggests that the writer was too much of a hurry to sit 【M6】______ down and write in longhand. Ones handwriting is in some ways as much an expression of his personality like his voice, and in 【M7】______ correspondence between friends a great deal of the writer is missing if he uses a typewriter. Therefore, the typewriter is often avoided in letters which express friend and personal sentiments. 【M8】______ However, the typewriter had become so popular that the Remington Company received a letter from Mark Twain, which today seems most ironic: "I have stopped using the Type-Writer, for the reason that I never could write a letter with it to anybody with 【M9】______ receiving a request by return mail that I would not describe the 【M10】______ machine but also state what progress I had made in using it, etc. I dont like to write letters, so I dont want people to know that I own this curiosity breeding little joker."

Hotels were among the earliest facilities that bound the United States together. They were

. both creatures and creators of communities, as well as symptoms of the frenetic quest for community. Even in the first part of the nineteenth century, Americans were private, business and pleasure purposed. Conventions were the new occasions, and hotels were distinctively American facilities making conventions possible. The first national convention of a major party to choose a candidate for President (that of the National Republican party, which met on December 12, 1831, and nominated Henry Clay for President) was held in Baltimore, at a hotel that was then reputed to be the best in the country. The presence of Barnum's City Hotel in Baltimore, a six-story building with two hundred apartments helps explain why many other early national political Conventions were held there.

In the longer run, too. American hotels made other national conventions not only possible but pleasant and convivial. The growing custom of regularly assembling from afar the 'representatives of all kinds of groups—not only for political conventions, but also for commercial, professional, learned, and. vocational ones—in turn supported the multiplying hotels. By mid-twentieth century, conventions accounted for over third of the yearly room occupancy of all hotels in the nation, about eighteen thousand different conventions were held annually with a total attendance of about ten million persons.

Nineteenth-century American hotelkeepers, who were no longer the genial, deferential "hosts" of the eighteenth-century European inn, became leading citizens. Holding a large stake in the community, they exercised power to make it prosper. As owners or managers of the local "palace of the public", they were makers and shapers of a principal community attraction. Travelers from abroad were mildly shocked by this high social position.

The National Republican party is mentioned in line 8 as an example of a group______.

A．from Baltimore

B．of learned people

C．owning a hotel

D．holding a convention

The penny press, which emerged in the United States during the 1830's, was a powerful agen

t of mass communication. These newspapers were little dailies, generally four pages in length, writ ten for the mass taste. They differed from the formal presentation of the conservative press, with its emphasis on political and literary topics. The new papers were brief and cheap, emphasizing sensational reports of police courts and juicy scandals as well as human interest stories. Twentiethcentury journalism was already foreshadowed in the penny press of the 1830's.

The New York Sun, founded in 1833, was the first successful penny paper, and it was followed two years later by the New York Herald, published by James Gordon Bennett. Not long after, Ho race Greeley issued the New York Tribune, which was destined to become the most influential paper in America. Greeley gave space to the issues that deeply touched the American people before tile Civil Warabolitionism, temperance, free homesteads, Utopian cooperate settlements, and the problems of labor. The weekly edition of the Tribune, with I00,000 subscribers, had a remarkable influence in rural areas, especially in Western communities.

Americans were reputed to be the most avid (热心的) readers of periodicals in the world. An English observer enviously calculated that, in 1829, the number of newspapers circulated in Great Britain was enough to reach only one out of every thirtysix inhabitants weekly; Pennsylvania in that same year had a newspaper circulation which reached one out of every four inhabitants weekly. Statistics seemed to justify the common belief that Americans were devoted to periodicals. Newspapers in the United States increased from 1,200 in 1833 to 3,000 by the early 1860's, on the eve of the Civil War. This far exceeded the number and circulation of newspapers in Eng land and France.

What is the author's main point in the first paragraph？

A．The penny press was modeled on earlier papers.

B．The press in the nineteenth century reached only a small proportion of the population,

C．The penny press became an important way of disseminating information in the first half of the nineteenth century.
