Section B In-depth ReadingPassage OneQuestions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage.When I was a junior in college, I took a course on D. H. Lawrence. I know this sounds stupid, but I at first thought it was about Lawrence of Arabia, the great British desert fighter. I’d seen the movie, and I wanted to be him.I went to a used bookstore to get the required novels. I was surprised by the titles: Women in Love, Sons and Lovers, and Lady Chatterley’s Lover. This was a side of Lawrence of Arabia I didn’t know about. The clerk explained. Bad news. But I had registered for the course and I needed the credits. Hopelessly, I went home to read.Like a lot of college students, I bought used books hoping someone would have already underlined the important stuff. And the books I bought were thoroughly underlined. When I started to read, I was blown away. This was hot stuff!All the books had the same female name in the front. This girl really knew how to underline—not only the juicy parts, but the beautiful passages about love. I looked her up in the phone book and she was listed. I figured that I’d call her, hoping for anything from a date to copies of the papers she might have written about Lawrence.I called her, introduced myself, and told her what I wanted. She was not a college student, but a retired professor of English literature. These books were copies she’d sold when she moved to a smaller apartment. She laughed and said she’d be glad to have a date with me.We liked each other right away. She lived alone, and her eyes were failing. She suggested that if I’d drive her to the supermarket once a week, she’d tutor me in Lawrence.46.
