Read the following paragraph carefully and select the best topic sentence from the four possible answers that follow the paragraph. Write the letter of your choice in the blank provided.
These memories of mine have been collected slowly, over a period of years. Some readers, finding them in a magazine, have taken them for stories. The assumption that I have “made them up” is surprisingly prevalent （流行的）, even among people who know me. I do not understand the reason for these doubts. Can it be that the public takes for granted that anything written by a professional writer is necessarily untrue? The professional writer is looked on perhaps as a “story-teller”, like a child who has fallen into that habit and is mechanically scolded by his parents even when he protests that this time he is telling the truth.
Topic Sentence: _________
A、I am essentially a story-teller.
B、I am often accused of telling lies.
C、The fact that I am a professional writer is often doubted by my readers.
D、The memories of mine are often taken as stories by some of my readers.
【正确答案】：D
【题目解析】：开头第一句提到我的记忆是经过多年慢慢收集起来的。之后就围绕那些记忆展开论述，说到一些读者在杂志上看到了我的那些记忆，把它们当成了故事，反问职业作家写的东西一定是不真实的吗。说明这一段的主旨句就是开头第一句，故选D。
