24、   Brennan Agranoff, a colorblind boy, started his custom sock business in middle school, with a small loan（贷 款）he got from his parents. Up till now, he has sold over 1 million dollars' worth of socks online in the last four years.

Brennan thought of the idea for his custom sock company at just 13 years old. He was attending a high-school basketball game in his hometown of Sherwood, Oregon, and noticed that many kids of his age were wearing the same white Nike sport socks. The boy told himself that if these white plain socks were so popular with kids, then some cool custom designs would surely be an even greater hit.

But the boy didn't tell his parents about the business idea immediately. He spent six months researching things like printing machines and technology and drawing up a business plan. Only when he had everything planned out did he ask his parents for a loan. “They thought the idea was a little out there, ”Brennan recently told CNN Money, but he kept pushing, and finally received a $3,000 loan to start his company. Then he began to work on his own designs. The fact that he was colorblind didn't stop him and he has created over 200 designs now.

Business was slow the first year, but then Brennan started pushing his HoopSwagg products heavily on the Internet. Orders soon started coming in in large numbers, and HoopSwagg became a popular brand among custom sock lovers. Right now,his designs can be found on HoopSwagg website, Amazon and eBay.

Four years after starting his business,Brennan has achieved great success while balancing(平衡)school, house chores and his social life. And he says he loves every minute of it.

25、   I have been drawing for as long as I can remember. When I was a child, my parents were very busy. And for my generation, we didn’t have the internet. In order to entertain myself, I found pens and paper, and I just started drawing.

At that time, I thought of drawing just as a hobby. But I was tired of studying for school exams. I wanted to do something creative. One day, it hit me: How nice would it be if I could do what I love for a living? I did research on the best art schools around the world. One of my friends studied art in the United States. She advised me to go to the Rhode Island School of Design(RISD). That was the only school I applied to after I graduated from high school.

Luckily, I was accepted into the RISD. There were new skills to learn every day. At first, I was a little confused. I tried many different things. Chris Baselli, one of my teachers, helped me to find my own style.

Now,  I’ve been working as a full-time illustrator( 插 画 师 ) for ten years. I’ve drawn for newspapers and magazines such as The New York Times and The New Yorker. I’ve also worked with companies like McDonald’s and Apple. Some clients(客户) keep coming back to me. They love my style.

When I get an assignment( 任 务 ), I read it over a lot of times. I try to work out the most important message that I need to include in my work. Then, I forget about the assignment for a while— the best idea often pops up when I am not thinking too hard.

I’m still at the early stage of my career. One of the biggest fears that I have is losing the excitement. I hope that will never happen so that I can keep creating wonderful designs.

26、   Do you think studying in a different country is something that sounds very exciting? Certainly, it is a new experience. However, there are also some problems you will meet. Because you may have difficulty getting used to a new culture. This is culture shock .

Actually, at least four main periods of culture-shock appear. The first period is called “the honeymoon ( 蜜月)”. In this period, you feel excited about living in a different place, and everything seems to be fun. You like everything, and everybody seems to be so nice to you. Also, the happy life in a new culture seems as if it will have no ending.

However, the second period of culture shock appears. This is the “enemy period”. You get to notice that not everything is as good as you had thought it was. You become tired of many things about the new culture. Besides, people don’t treat you as a guest anymore. Everything that seemed to be so wonderful before is now terrible.

After you deal with your enemy feelings, you come to the third period called “getting good again”. In this period, you will feel more active, and you try to develop understanding of everything you don’t understand. The whole situation becomes better; you feel well from the symptoms of the first two periods, and you adapt yourself to the new values and traditions of the new country. You get to see that even the culture is different from your own, it has something that you can learn from.

The last period of culture shock is called “nature”. In this period, you have reached a point where you actually feel good because you have learned enough to understand the new culture. The things that made you feel uncomfortable or strange are now things that you understand. Now you feel comfortable, and you have adapt yourself to the new culture.

In fact, culture shock is something you must experience when living in a foreign country. It does not seem like a very useful experience when you are going through its four periods. However, when you have got used to a new culture, you can more fully enjoy it. You learn how to communicate with other people, and learning about other cultures helps you learn more about yourself.

【1】When you are studying in a foreign country, what will you do?

A.Discover funny things. B.Have a chance to get rich.

C.You think that you are on a holiday with your family.

D.You believe everything will always be OK.

【3】If you are in the second period, you will probably feel .

A.bored B.worried C.relaxed D.surprised

【4】What is the meaning of the underlined phrase “symptoms” in the passage?

A.Influences. B.Illness. C.Changes. D.Differences.

【5】After learning the passage, we will know .

A.how to search the culture shocks

B.how to stop the culture shock happening

C.how to communicate with people in a new culture
