答案 D
解析 推理判断题。
根据文章第一段的最后两句“However,hethenwentontotalkaboutMr.Obamainawaywhichsuggestedhehadnoideaofhisbackgroundatall.IsensedthatIwastalkingtoabookliar.”可以推断出通过讨论这本书的内容作者进而发现朋友在撒谎,故选D。

B.42%ofpeoplepretendedtohaveread1984.
C.Theauthoradmittedhavingread9books.

解析 细节理解题。
根据文章第二段最后两句“ButIampleasedtosaythat,unlike42percentofpeople,Ihavereadthebookatnumberone,GeorgeOrwell’s1984.Ithinkit’sreallybrilliant.”可知答案。
选项A和D提到的细节在文中是有出现,但是选项的内容无法从文章中得出结论;选项C的信息作者在本文没有叙述。
66.Bylyingaboutreading,apersonhopesto.
A.controltheconversation
B.appearknowledgeable

D.makemorefriends
答案 B

67.Whatistheauthor’sattitudeto58%ofreaders?
A.Favorable.B.Uncaring.
C.Doubtful.D.Friendly.
答案 C
解析 作者态度题。
结合文章大意,以及文中最后出现的“...amastonishedthat58percentsaidtheyhadneverdoneso”可知,作者对58%ofreaders持怀疑态度,故C项(怀疑的)符合文意。
选项B(不予关注的),显然错误,作者若不予以关注就不会写出这篇文章。
