细节理解题。根据第三段 “After the first time Anna had witnessed such a fire of burning books, she made her decision: if the Nazis sought to erase knowledge, she would preserve it. With the help of her former professor, Herr Fischer, and a handful of like-minded intellectuals, they began to smuggle banned books into a forgotten wine cellar beneath an old bookshop. Its owner, a weary and arrogant man, had seen too many of his customers disappear in the dead of night. He understood the risks but handed Anna the key without hesitation. Shelves were packed with volumes deemed dangerous by the regime—works on philosophy, history, political theory, and poetry that spoke of liberty. The group called their refuge Die Schattenbibliothek—The Shadow Library. (在安娜第一次目睹了这样的焚书大火后，她做出了决定：如果纳粹试图抹去知识，她就会保存它。在她以前的教授费希尔先生和一些志趣相投的知识分子的帮助下，他们开始把禁书偷运到一家老书店下面一个被人遗忘的酒窖里。它的老板是一个疲惫而傲慢的人，他看到太多的顾客在深夜凭空消失。他明白其中的风险，但毫不犹豫地把钥匙交给了安娜。书架上摆满了被政权视为危险的书籍——涉及哲学、历史、政治理论和诗歌的自由著作。该组织称他们的避难所为——影子图书馆。)” 和第四段的句子 “Every evening, they gathered to read and remember that another world had once existed—a world where ideas could flourish unchained. (每天晚上，他们聚在一起读书，回忆曾经存在过的另一个世界——一个思想可以不受束缚地蓬勃发展的世界。)” 可知，安娜创建 “影子图书馆” 的目的是为了保存被禁书籍，并为思想交流提供一个避难所。故选B。

Why did the author mention the shop owner?

To show that he was a contributor to the library in terms of the important shelter he provided.

To emphasize the widespread support for the resistance movement from his previous customers in Berlin.

To highlight the risks people were willing to take to preserve knowledge during the Nazi regime.

推理判断题。根据第三段的句子 “With the help of her former professor, Herr Fischer, and a handful of like-minded intellectuals, they began to smuggle banned books into a forgotten wine cellar beneath an old bookshop. Its owner, a weary and arrogant man, had seen too many of his customers disappear in the dead of night. He understood the risks but handed Anna the key without hesitation. (在前任教授费舍尔先生和几位志同道合的知识分子协助下，他们开始将禁书偷运至一家老书店地下被遗忘的酒窖中。店主是个疲惫而倨傲的男人，早已目睹太多顾客在深夜里人间蒸发。他清楚其中风险，却毫不犹豫地将钥匙交给了安娜。)” 可推知，作者提到书店老板是为了突出人们在纳粹统治下为了保存知识所愿意承担的风险。故选C。

In the underlined sentence, what does “interrogated” most likely mean?

Arrested.

Inquired.

Encountered.

Attacked.

词义猜测题。根据划线句子中的 “The Gestapo (纳粹秘密警察) arrived hours later. They tore through the shop, upturned shelves, (纳粹秘密警察破门而入。他们粗暴地搜查书店，掀翻书架，)” 和下文的 “But they found nothing in the shop (但他们在书店里什么也没找到)” 可知，纳粹秘密警察是来搜查东西的，所以他们肯定会审问在场的赫尔·费舍尔。由此可知，interrogated的意义为 “讯问，审问”，与inquired意义一致。故选B。

What is the main purpose of the passage?

To demonstrate the inhumane acts of the Nazis and evoke readers’ anger towards the Nazi regime.

To emphasize Anna’s heroic deeds, with the intention of inspiring readers to be brave in the face of adversity.

To illustrate the impact of Nazi rule on free thought and highlight intellectual resistance.

To analyze the historical context of Nazi’s book-burning campaigns and discuss the impact on cultural development.

目的意图题。根据全文内容，特别是第二段的 “The Nazis had declared war on free thought, reducing thousands of books to ashes in public bonfires, their flames reflecting the growing darkness of the era. (纳粹向自由思想宣战，在公共场所的篝火中将成千上万本书化为灰烬，熊熊的火焰反映出那个时代日益黑暗的一面。)” 和最后一段的 “However, in the wreckage of a broken world, she found hope. The war had sought to silence knowledge, but knowledge had endured. (然而，在这个破碎世界的废墟中，她找到了希望。战争试图压制知识，但知识却经久不衰。)” 可知，文章的主要目的是通过讲述安娜和她的同伴们创建 “影子图书馆” 的故事，展示纳粹统治对自由思想的影响，并突出知识分子的抵抗。故选C。
