24、 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.
【1】When the writer was a child, she drew in order to_________.
A.make money B.surprise her parents

C.when she was a pre-school child D.after she graduated from high school
【3】After being accepted into the Rhode Island School of Design, the writer felt_________at first.
A.bored B.frightened C.confused D.disappointed
【4】The underlined phrase “pop up” most probably means “_________”.
A.work B.win C.escape D.appear
【5】According to the article, the writer fears that_________.
A.illustrators will be replaced by robots B.her clients will no longer love her style
C.the creative ideas will escape from her head D.she will no longer be excited about her profession
25、 Where is it possible to drive from Rome to Moscow, Madrid, Paris, Vienna and Stockholm without going to Europe? The answer is in the state of Maine!
Throughout the United States there are many towns and cities that have been named after not only European cities but other countries as well, such as China, Poland, Norway, Sweden, and Denmark. Just how many New World place names are recycled from the Old World names has never been tallied, but one researcher found forty-one Londons, fifty-six Berlins, twenty-four Dublins, thirty-two Athenses, and twenty-seven Moscows, among others!
Reasons for European place names differ. Some were in memory of settlers' former homes, others in honor of historic events. Founded in 1818 by John coffee, Robert Beauty, John D. Carroll and John Read, Athens is one of the oldest incorporated cities in the State of Alabama. The town was first called Athenson, and the name was then shortened to Athens, after the ancient city in Greece. More interestingly, some names were given by mistake. For instance, the people of Moscow, Kansas, wanted their city to follow the name of the explorer Moscoso. They shortened his name to Mosco, and an official in Washington, thinking the Kansans couldn't spell, added a "w".
【1】What might have made the official in Washington change Mosco into Moscow?
A.Moscow is a world-famous city name.
B.He thought Moscoso would prefer Moscow.
C.He believed Moscow was a far better name.
D.He couldn't spell very well and made a mistake.
【2】The underlined word "tallied"? In Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to"________".
A.built B.believed C.added D.visited
【3】The best title for the passage is ________.
A.The Story of Moscow, Kansas
B.American Cities and Their Names
C.Interesting Names
D.Old World Place Names in America
26、 The winner of the fifth season of the China Central Television's Chinese Poetry Conference (中国诗词大会) was shown on Feb 9. Peng Min, who has fallen at the final hurdle twice before, finally won the crown (王冠) for himself.
The competitors vary in age, from teenagers to adults. Peng, 36, an associate senior editor (副主编) of a poetry magazine, is one of the most familiar (熟悉的) faces of the show. He can recite around 1,000 poems.
With a master's degree in literature, Peng is always the hot favorite to win the prize, but, surprisingly, he's lost two finals in a row-the second season he lost to a 16-year-old high school student, Wu Yishu, and in the third season he was beaten by deliveryman (送货员) Lei Haiwei.
He cried after losing the season three final, “I realized that if I compete and fail again, at least I've tried, but if I don't sign up, that means I'm more of a failure because I'm afraid of trying. Therefore, when season five came around, I decided to give it another go,” Peng recalls.
The season five final came down to Peng and 11-year-old Han Yaxuan-again he was facing a much younger rival. This time, though, there was to be no mistake and victory was finally his.
“I want to tell people who have a similar experience that, even though you go through all kinds of misfortune (不幸的) or difficulties, as long as you are brave enough to look up, there will always be a light in the sky to guide you out of the darkness,” Peng said in his speech. “Thousands of years later, all of our shadows will vanish, only the beauty of poems will last.”
【1】How many seasons of the Chinese Poetry Conference does Peng Min take part in?
A.Two B.Three C.Four D.Five
【2】Who won the second season of the Chinese Poetry Conference?
A.Wu Yishu B.Peng Min C.Lei Haiwei D.Han Yaxuan
【3】What made Peng Ming successful ?
A.His failure B.His misfortune C.His braveness D.His difficulties
【4】What’s the meaning of the underlined phrase “vanish”?
A.存在 B.消失 C.出现 D.停止
【5】What is the best title of the passage ?
A.No Pain, No Gain. B.It Is Never Too Late to Learn.
C.Failure Is The Mother of Success. D.A Good Beginning Makes A Good Ending.

A Letter From Mars
Dear Earthmen,
I have enjoyed my stay on your interesting planet.

First of all you live in boxes. Every morning you leave your big boxes and get into smaller boxes on wheels(轮子). All these small boxes run around and around, and finally stop to rest. You leave these boxes on wheels and go to very large tall boxes.
