24、There are many things we do for the people we love. Some show their love with sweet words, and some with gifts. And one man, 72-year-old Vojin Kusic, has built a rotating（旋转的）house for his beloved wife.

Kusic and his family live in Srbac, Bosnia. Their house is amazing, and what makes it more impressive is that Kusic has designed and built it all by himself. He used electric motors（电动机）and the wheels of an old truck to make the house rotate. The house is two storeys high, and it can rotate a full circle in just 22 seconds at its fastest speed, and complete the turn in 24 hours at its slowest.

Kusic made the decision because his wife said she wanted to be able to see the front yard from the living room, and he was tired of tearing down（拆除）the walls. It took a lot of hard work to build the house and even more to make it rotate, but Kusic was happy to do it, because it meant a lot to his wife.

This is not the first time the man has built a house for his family. When they were first married, he had built a regular, non-rotating home, where he and his wife raised their three children. At the time, his wife wanted their bedroom to face the sun. As a result, their living room had to face away from the road. Then his wife got a little sad that she couldn’t see guests walking up to their home. So Kusic decided to do something different.

Kusic’s wife is now very happy, and so is Kusic. He joked, “Now, our front door also rotates, so if she finds unwanted guests heading our way, she can rotate the house and make them turn away.”

【1】The writer introduces the topic of the passage in the first paragraph by ________.

A．comparing a fact

B．telling a story

C．asking a question

D．describing an experience

【2】Which of the following is TRUE about Kusic’s new house?

A．It rotates day and night.

B．It is changed from an old truck.

C．It can rotate 360 at different speeds.

D．It is built by Kusic and his wife together.

【3】Upon his wife’s request, Kusic first ________.

A．made the house much bigger

B．made the bedroom face the sun

C．made the living room face the road

D．made it difficult for guests to find the door

【4】Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?

A．

B．

C．

D．

25、We can see walls everywhere in the world .But the Great Wall of China is the biggest of all . The Chinese call it “ The Ten—Thousand—Li Great Wall”. It is in fact more than 6,000 kilometers long. It is 4-5 meters wide. In most places, five horses or ten men can walk side by side.

When you visit the Great Wall, you can’t help wondering how the Chinese people were able to build such a great wall thousands of years ago.

26、You can create art with crayons, chalks or paints. Well, African artist Mounou Desire Koffi makes his art by using something different. He uses old phones.

Koffi grew up in the Ivory Coast. 【1】 “I was always playing with the things I could find in the streets,” he said.

In art school, Koffi wanted to find the meaning of his work. “I remembered my childhood and the waste I found in the streets,” Koffi said. “Then I decided to work with the materials that could inspire (启发) me.” 【2】

The artist got to work. He took down parts of the old phones and painted them. 【3】 Many of Koffi’s works show people from the Ivory Coast. Some are studying at school. Some are riding motorbikes. One of his works even includes an elephant.

【4】 “I’m sharing the day-to-day life of millions of people in Africa. Each person has their own life story,” he said. “We are alike, but so different.”
