(B) For three months it was essentially illegal to show any light at night, however faint. Rule-breakers could be arrested for lighting a cigarette in a doorway or holding a match up to read a wartime poster.

4. Alice Walker에 관한 다음 글의 내용과 일치하는 것은?

In the summer of 1966, Alice Walker, who would later win a Pulitzer Prize for The Color Purple, spent her days battling racism in Mississippi. She had recently won her first writing fellowship and could have chosen to follow her dream of moving to Senegal, Africa, but instead she put herself in the heat of the civil rights movement. Born in 1944, Walker was the eighth child of Georgia farmers who earned about $300 a year. When she was 8, her brother accidentally shot her in the left eye with a BB gun.

By the time her parents got her to the hospital a week later (they had no car), she was blind in that eye. Despite the counts against her, Walker has become an award-winning novelist. As Walker puts it, she writes about people who “make it, who come out of nothing. People who triumph.”
