D.characters答案：CBDC解析：1.細節(jié)理解題。從文章第三段“NamessuchasSnoopy,WoodstockandGarfieldarewellknownindozensofcountries.”，而Peanuts只是一本漫畫書在書名，可知答案是C。2.推理判斷題。本題要求我們理解初期的漫畫功能，從第一段第一句話“…artistshaveusedcartoonstocriticizebadrulersorlandowners.”中可以推斷出B是正確的選項。3.細節(jié)理解題。從最后二段的內容的“First,youmustthinkofagoodplot…”,“Moreover,thelanguagemustberealisticandsimple…”,“Furthermore,thecharactersinyourstorymustbecleartoreaders…”我們可以得到答案。4.詞義猜測題。從上下文，特別是下文的“Itshouldbefunny,excitingorinterestinginsomeway.”，可以推斷出C是故事情節(jié)的意思。37.ScientistsareuncoveringthesecretsoftwoportcitieslostunderthewatersoftheMediterraneanSea,aresearchersaidyesterday.
