1:正确答案： C
答案解析： 答案选C。only是绝对词，在选项D中出现，根据经验排除D；对照原文第一自然段最后一句话there was something quite exceptional about this woman说她有些特别的地方，接着第二自然段就讲In the summer of 1995, McCarty gave $ 150,000, most of the money she had saved throughout her life，to the University of Southern Mississippi in her hometown.她把大部分积攒的钱捐献给了家乡的大学，A和B表达都不全面，答案是C。
2:正确答案： C
答案解析： 答案选C。主旨题。联系第一自然段和每段首句知道，本文讲了三个作家，锁定答案B和C，结合内容，文章主要讲关于他们的旅行和作品，答案是C。
3:正确答案：A
答案解析： 答案选A。事实细节题。该题目主要考查考生对文章主人公相关细节的了解。根据题干内容，此细节定位于文章本段讲述自己高中毕业后经历的部分。文中讲到“当我高中毕业时，爸爸正在做生意。所以我压根没有考虑过继续获得大学学位的事情，毕业后直接转向为爸爸工作”。可判断A选项与原文句意一致。
