The Costa Book Awards consistently pick winners that are both of the moment and
subsequently endure. It's our pleasure to confirm this year's Category Winners.
First Novel Award Winner
Book: Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine
Author: Gail Honeyman
Eleanor is 31 years old; work finishes on a Friday and begins again on a Monday. Between, her
only company will be two bottles of vodka and her own solitary, unique wit （ 机 智 ） ． It is
contentment, of a kind, but an unexpected shared experience suddenly opens the door to
possibility. Challenging reader expectations with a living, breathing character, Gail Honeyman's
debut is a funny and moving diamond.
Biography Award Winner
Book: In the Days of Rain
Author: Rebecca Stott
The Exclusive Brethren were a closed community who believed the world is ruled by Satan.
Into this is born Rebecca. Her father had been an influential Brethren Minister. As her father lay
dying, he begged her to help him write the memoir. He wanted to tell the story of their family who
for generations had all been members of a fundamentalist Christian sect.
Poetry Award Winner
Book: Inside the Wave
Author: Helen Dunmore
To be alive is to be inside the wave, always travelling until it breaks and is gone. These
poems are concerned with the borderline between the living and the dead—the underworld and the
human living world—and the acutely intense being of both.
Children's Award Winner
Book: The Explorer
Author: Katherine Rundell, Hannah Horn
Four children survive their aircraft plunging into the Amazon jungle, but for Fred and his
friends it's only the beginning of a cruel battle for survival. Brimming with adventure and a real
command of character and incident, Rundell has few peers in superb children's fiction.

A．boring and lonely. B．funny and touching.
C．exciting and complex. D．ordinary and happy.
22．Why did Rebecca Stott write In the Days of Rain?

The student arrived early, sat front and center, and stood out in my classroom in more ways
than one. I'd say that he was about 40 years older than his classmates in my undergraduate
communications class. He eagerly jumped into class discussions, with his humor and wisdom of
experience. And he was always respectful of the other students' perspectives, as if each of them
were a teacher. Jerry Valencia walked in with a smile—and he left with one too.
"These students gave me the confidence that I didn't need to feel bad about my age," Valencia
says.
One day, I spotted Valencia on campus. He said he would have to stop taking classes that
semester and reapply for next year. By then, he hoped to have earned enough money and have his
student-loan papers in order. He asked seriously whether he could still sit in on my
communications class.
Sure, I said. But he wouldn't get any credit.
No problem, he said.
Soon there he was again, back at his old desk, jumping into our discussions on how to find
and tell stories in Los Angeles—a 63-year-old man with as much energy and curiosity as any of
the youngsters in class. .
A lot of Valencia's classmates apparently knew he couldn't afford that semester's tuition but
was still doing the homework. "Here he is, willingly taking a class for the delight of it and benefit
of learning," says Jessica Espinosa, a 25-year-old junior. Afterward, I overheard Valencia wanted
to stay in school until he earned a master's degree, but it had taken him 12 years to finish
community college, so he had a long way to go.
There is something splendidly unreasonable about Valencia's determination to get a four-year
degree and then a master's. At his current pace, he'll be 90 when he finally hangs all that paper on
the wall. But that doesn't seem especially relevant. He's found all the youthful energy and
academic opportunity stimulating. Valencia's grade in my class this semester will not show up on
his transcripts(成绩单). But I'm giving him an A-and in the most important ways, it counts.
24．What made Valencia different from his classmates?
A．He was respectful to the teacher.
B．He activated the class atmosphere.
C．He was eager to learn despite his age.
D．He often put forward different opinions.
25．According to the author, why did Valencia continue to attend classes?
A．He treasured the chance of learning.
B．He wished to show his determination.
C．He needed the credits to further his study.
D．He desired to have an A on his transcripts.
26．Which of the following best describes Valencia?
A．Modest and independent. B．Energetic and generous.
