12、ld. ”可知切尔西克林顿避开媒体的关注是为了上大学并进入商业圈，故选C项。2.【解析】选A。词义猜测题。联系上文可知“Her feature stories will reportedly be used in the Making a Difference series, which runs on NBC Nightly News. ”的句意为“切尔西的专题报道将被应用到Making a Difference系列节目中，这档节目在NBC Nightly News中演出。”根据句意可知此处run意为“(连续地)演出”，故选A。3.【解析】选D。细节理解题。根据文章第三段的叙述可知D项符合题

13、意。4.【解析】选B。推理判断题。根据文章第三段中的内容可知，当比尔克林顿当选为总统后美国第一夫人希拉里要求媒体不要报道有关其女儿切尔西的新闻，切尔西也非常赞同妈妈；2007年，希拉里竞选总统时切尔西为其助阵；近来，切尔西又为克林顿的新书作宣传。通过切尔西的这些举动，我们可推断出她非常支持她父母的事业，故选B。文中没有信息告诉我们切尔西是克林顿的第几个女儿，排除A项；虽然在第三段中我们得出切尔西支持其父母的事业的结论，但不等于她总是听从妈妈的建议，排除C项；通过最后一段可知Jenna Bush Hager is a correspondent for NBCs “Today” show，而不是“NBC Nightly News”，故排除D项。阅读第2节答案：15.
