Suppose someone asks you to paint a picture. “All right,” you think. “No problem. I can fill the paper pretty easily.” But what if the picture you are asked to paint is three stories high, two city blocks long, and one block wide In other words, a total of 17,000 square feet! Most people would be overwhelmed by the request (请求). But not Diego Rivera.
Diego Rivera (1886-1957) was one of modern Mexico’s most famous painters. When he was asked to paint this huge picture, he knew he could do it. During his life, Rivera painted 124 frescos that showed Mexican life, history, and social problems. A fresco is a painting on wet plaster (灰泥).
Rivera had to plan ahead and drew simply about what he planned to paint. Then Rivera’s assistants would put all but the final layer (层) of plaster on the wall. Next, they used sharp tools to dig the outline (轮廓) of Rivera’s quickly-made drawing into the plaster. Then, they made a mixture of lime (石灰) and sand and spread this over the outline in a thin layer. As soon as this layer was firm — but not dry — Rivera began to paint. Every morning, his paints had to be freshly mixed. Rivera would paint as long as there was daylight. He refused to paint under man-made light since it would change how the colors looked.
Sometimes, Rivera would say that what he had painted that day was not good enough. Then he would insist that all the plaster be cut off so he could start again! It took Rivera years to finish, but this fresco is thought to be one of the greatest in the world. The man himself is considered to be the greatest Mexican artist of the twentieth century.
24. What would most people think about the request of painting the huge picture
A. It is possible. B. It is pretty easy.
C. It is interesting. D. It is too difficult.
25. The third paragraph is about _____.
A. how Rivera mixed different paints B. how Rivera chose his assistants
C. how Rivera did his painting D. how Rivera became famous
26. What can we learn about Diego Rivera
A. He wanted everything to be perfect.
B. He liked using light in his paintings.
C. He preferred quickly-made drawings.
D. He was good at making full use of his time.
C
The American screen has long been a smoky place. But cigarettes are more common in movies today than at any other time in the last 50 years. According to a survey by the University of California, San Francisco, 75% of all Hollywood films released (发行) between 1999 and 2006 showed tobacco use.
Sadly, audiences — especially kids — are taking notice. Two recent studies show that among children as young as 10, those who always see smoking in the movies are up to 2.7 times more likely than others to pick up the habit. Kids from non-smoking homes are hit the hardest. This could be because they don’t live with the dirty ashtrays (烟灰缸) that make real-world smoking a lot less attractive than the cleaned-up movie version.
“Seeing smoking on-screen makes it look normal,” says Jono Polansky, who works with a project called Smoke Free Movies. “It says, ‘If you want to be an adult, you’ll smoke,’” Polansky told TFK (Time for Kids). Before you go to the movies, check out smokefreemovies.ucsf.edu for an updated list of which movies show smoking.
More groups than ever are pushing to get the smokes off of the screen. “Some movies show kids up to 14 incidents of smoking per hour,” says Barry Bloom, head of the Harvard School of Public Health. “We’re in the business of preventing disease, and cigarettes are the Number 1 preventable cause.”
Pressure (压力) is growing to make movies a non-smoking zone. A dozen health groups, including the American Medical Association, are calling for a reduction of smoking in movies and on TV. Forty-one state attorneys general (州总检察长) have agreed to add an anti-tobacco public service ad at the beginning of any DVD that includes smoking.
Like former smokers, movie studios may realize that getting out of the habit is not just a lot healthier, but also a lot smarter.
27. The underlined part “the habit” in Paragraph 2 refers to _____.
A. smoking B. studying C. taking notice D. seeing a movie
28. Jono Polansky probably advises kids to _____.
A. act like an adult B. go to the movies
C. see smoke-free movies D. work for Smoke Free Movies
29. The move to make movies a non-smoking zone _____.
A. is impossible to succeed B. is under a lot of pressure
C. has proved to be a failure D. has received official support
30. What would be the best title for the text
A. Movies are becoming less and less attractive
B. Kids should see fewer and fewer movies
C. Movies may be bad for kids’ health
D. Smoking is harmful to kids’ health
D
Newborns begin to develop language skills long before they begin speaking. And, compared to adults, they develop these skills more quickly. People have a hard time learning new languages as they grow older, but babies have the ability to learn any language easily.
For a long time, scientists have tried to explain how such young children can learn the complicated (复杂的) grammatical rules and sounds of a language. Now, researchers are getting a better idea of what’s happening in the brains of the tiniest language learners. This new information might help kids with learning problems as well as adults who want to learn new languages. It might even help scientists who are trying to design computers that can communicate like people do.
Most babies go “ma ma” by 6 months of age, and most children speak in full sentences by age 3. For many years, scientists have wondered how the brains of young children figure out how to communicate using language. With help from new technologies, scientists are now finding that babies begin life with the ability to learn any language. They get into contact with other people, listen to what they say and watch their movements very closely. That is why they quickly master the languages they hear most often.
Studies show that, up to about 6 months of age, babies can recognize all the sounds that make up all the languages in the world. Starting at around 6 months old a baby’s brain focuses on (集中于) the most common sounds it hears. Then, children begin responding (回应) only to the sounds of the language they hear the most.
In a similar way older babies start recognizing the patterns that make up the rules of their native language. For example, English children who are about 18 months old start to figure out that words ending in “-ing” or “-ed” are usually verbs, and that verbs are action words.
31. Which of the following opinions does the author agree with
A. Babies are really good language learners.
B. Adults should learn languages like babies.
C. It’s better to learn a new language at an early age.
D. Babies should be trained to improve language skills.
32. The new research in the second paragraph can be helpful in _____.
A. finding successful language learners
B. teaching kids with learning problems
C. designing human-shaped computers
D. improving babies’ language ability
33. The researchers found out that babies learn a language mainly by _____.
A. repeating the words of other people
B. remembering the full sentences they hear
C. hearing and closely watching others speak
D. figuring out the meaning of different sounds
34. In the last two paragraphs, the author explains _____.
A. why babies pay more attention to sounds
B. how babies respond to what they hear most often
C. why verbs in a language attract the most attention of a baby
D. how babies master the grammatical rules of their native language
35. The purpose of the text is to _____.
A. discuss B. educate C. inform D. entertain

Tips for memorizing poems
If your teacher wants you to recite a long poem, you can learn it by dividing it into different parts. Here are a few tips for memorizing the poem.
☆ The first step is to start learning it. Begin by reading the poem line by line at least five times. 36 If you find some word which you do not know, look it up in the dictionary.
☆ 37 That’s because the lyrics have a tune to them. Though you do not have to set the poem to a tune, reading it more than once will help you in understanding its rhythm (韵律). Here, you will also understand the areas where you have to pause and the exact pronunciation.
☆ Then close the book and try to recall the poem. 38 However, you do not have to worry if you are not able to recall anything.
☆ The next step is the actual memorization process (过程). Break the poem into several parts and then repeat each one of them line by line. After you do this many times, try to recite the line without looking into the book. 39
☆ Once you have memorized the poem, keep on practicing till you are able to recite the poem fluently (流利地). 40
Memorizing a poem is not at all difficult if you put your mind and heart into it.
A. Let the words of the poem do the work.
B. Most of us find it easy to memorize a song.
C. A poem will live or die depending on how it is read.
D. Try to understand each and every word of the poem.
E. Repeat this process till you can repeat the whole poem by heart.
F. You may remember some words, lines, or may be nothing at all.
G. Practicing in front of your family, friends, or teacher can also be helpful.
