Have you tried painting by numbers Paint-by-numbers is a picture which has many parts with numbers. This has made it easier for people to paint because they only have to paint in each part with its color.
Dan Robbins is the inventor of paint-by-numbers. After World War Ⅱ, he worked for Palmer Paint. Working in the paint company helped him make the first paint-by-numbers. The idea came from Leonardo da Vinci. While painting, da Vinci often divided(分成) the picture into different parts and numbered them, so his students could complete the painting later.
Robbins used this idea and decided to make something that everyone could enjoy. He shared the idea with the manager of the company and got his help.
After working hard for some time, Robbins created paint-by-numbers. At first, sales of the product were low. But in 1951, after a show in New York, paint-by-numbers became very popular. In 1955, sales reached 20 million dollars. Paint-by-numbers is not only popular with children, but adults also enjoy it in their free time. Dan Robbins retired(退休)in 1973 and died in 2019. Till this day, his paint-by-numbers is still popular around the world.
59.Palmer Paint is the name of ________.
A. a manager B. a paint school
C. a paint company D. a famous painter
60.Which question is not answered in the passage
A. What is paint-by-numbers
B. Who gave Dan Robbins the idea
C. How long did it take to create paint-by-numbers
D. When did paint-by-numbers become popular
61.Which of the following is true about paint-by-numbers
A. It appeared before World War Ⅱ.
B. It is only popular with children.
C. It quickly became popular when it appeared.
D. It has been popular for about seventy years.
【答案】C、C、D
【解析】【文章大意】文章讲述了数字绘画的发明过程。
59. 根据第二段After World War Ⅱ, he worked for Palmer Paint. Working in the paint company helped him make the first paint-by-numbers.(第二次世界大战后,他在PaintPalmer工作。在涂料公司的工作帮助他制作了第一幅数字画。)可知,Palmer Paint是一家涂料公司的名字。故选C。
60. 根据第一段Paint-by-numbers is a picture which has many parts with numbers可知,作者解释了什么是数字绘画;根据第二段The idea came from Leonardo da Vinci.可知,作者解释了谁给了Dan Robbins这个想法;根据第四段But in 1951, after a show in New York, paint-by-numbers became very popular.可知,作者解释了数字绘画什么时候变得受欢迎的。所以选项C的问题文中没有给出答案。故选C。
61. 根据第四段But in 1951, after a show in New York, paint-by-numbers became very popular.和Till this day, his paint-by-numbers is still popular around the world.(但在1951年,在纽约的一场展览之后,数字绘画变得非常流行。直到今天,他的数字绘画仍然在世界各地流行。)可知,数字绘画已经流行70年了。所以选项D正确。故选D。

A problem is only a problem until there is a way to solve. We find solutions (解决办法) by thinking creatively. We use our imagination and come up with creative ideas.
Amsterdam (阿姆斯特丹) is one of the most crowded cities in Europe. As a result, housing is very expensive, especially for students. Students need low cost apartments. However, finding this kind of apartments is almost impossible.
While the colleges in Amsterdam were trying to solve the housing problem, thousands of shipping containers (集装箱) were lying quietly in ports (港口) around the world. These huge steel containers carry things from one country to another. The life of each container is about 10 years. The companies recycle some of the old containers. Yet they can't recycle all of them because there are so many.
Back in Amsterdam, a company came up with an amazing idea. Why not reuse these shipping containers as student apartments The containers are great for building apartments. They are all the same size and fit together perfectly. Moreover, these strong containers are so widely available that they are quite cheap to buy. For all these reasons, they can be used to build apartments quickly and cheaply. Building began in 2005, and after only a few
weeks, hundreds of Amsterdam students had new homes.
When students first heard about this idea, they thought the container apartments would be small, noisy, and cold. However, they were surprised to see them. Each container apartment has a kitchen, a bedroom with a study area, and a bathroom. The apartments are warm and quiet. They even have a high speed Internet connection. Living in a shipping container has become popular. Today, over 3,000 Amsterdam students live in the container village.
62.According to the passage, Amsterdam is a city with ______.
A. fewer people B. noisy apartments
C. rich students D. expensive housing
63.Paragraph 4 mainly tells us the ________ to reuse shipping containers as student apartments.
A. reasons B. achievements C. problems D. opinions
64.The passage is mainly about ______.
A. it's easy to solve housing problems
B. it's popular to live in shipping containers
C. apartments can be built by college students
D. problems can be solved with creative minds
65.The passage is probably from the ________ part of a newspaper.
A. City Development B. Sports Games

One afternoon I toured an art museum while waiting for my husband to finish a business meeting. I was looking forward to a quiet view of the art works.
A young couple viewing the paintings in front of me chatted nonstop between themselves. I watched them a moment and decided the wife was doing all the talk. I admired(钦佩) the husband's patience for standing her continuous talk. Distracted(分心) by their noise, I moved on.
I met with them several times as I moved through the different rooms of art. Each time I heard her constant(不变的) burst of words, I moved away quickly.
I was standing at the counter of the museum gift shop buying things when the couple came near to the exit. Before they left, the man reached into his pocket and pulled out a white object. He extended(伸展) it into a long stick and then tapped his way into the coatroom to get his wife's jacket.
"He's a brave man." The clerk at the counter said, "Most of us would give up if we were blinded at such a young age. During his recovery he made a promise that his life wouldn't change. So, as before, he and his wife come in whenever there's a new art show."
"But what does he get out of the art "I asked, "He can't see."
"Can't see You're wrong. He sees a lot. More than you or I do." The clerk said, "His wife describes each painting, so he can see it in his head."
I learned something about patience, courage and love that day. I saw the patience of a young wife describing paintings to a person without sight and the courage of a husband who would not allow blindness to change his life. And I saw the love shared by two people as I watched this couple walk away hand in hand.
66.The young couple were at an art museum ______.
A. to show their love B. to enjoy the paintings
C. to practice talking D. to buy some gifts
67.We can infer(推断) from the passage that the husband ______.

C. knew nothing about art D. completely depended on his wife
68.After hearing what the clerk had said about the couple, the writer was ______.
A. encouraged    B. excited

69.The passage is mainly about ______.
A. the importance of art B. good manners in public

【答案】B、A、C、D
【解析】【文章大意】本文主要讲述了作者与一对陌生夫妇在博物馆时发生的故事。妻子一直喋喋不休地对着丈夫讲话,而丈夫一直沉默无语。作者对那位妻子很厌烦,后来才知道原来她丈夫的眼睛失明,妻子是在给丈夫讲解作品。
66. 由第二段首句A young couple viewing the paintings in front of me chatted nonstop between themselves.可知,他们是来看画展,由此可确定他们来博物馆是欣赏艺术的。故选B。
67. 从第五段During his recovery he made a promise that his life wouldn't change. So, as before, he and his wife come in whenever there's a new art show他在恢复期间就决定不改变自己的生活,因此,像以前一样,无论什么时候有新画展时,他和他的妻子都会来。可以推断出这个年轻人并不是从小一出生就是盲人,故选A。
68. 由最后一段第一句“I learned something about patience, courage and love that day.”可以推断出,作者在听了柜台职员的解释后被这对夫妇的爱、勇气和耐心深深地打动了。故选C。

Have you tried painting by numbers Paint-by-numbers is a picture which has many parts with numbers. This has made it easier for people to paint because they only have to paint in each part with its color.
Dan Robbins is the inventor of paint-by-numbers. After World War Ⅱ, he worked for Palmer Paint. Working in the paint company helped him make the first paint-by-numbers. The idea came from Leonardo da Vinci. While painting, da Vinci often divided(分成) the picture into different parts and numbered them, so his students could complete the painting later.
Robbins used this idea and decided to make something that everyone could enjoy. He shared the idea with the manager of the company and got his help.
After working hard for some time, Robbins created paint-by-numbers. At first, sales of the product were low. But in 1951, after a show in New York, paint-by-numbers became very popular. In 1955, sales reached 20 million dollars. Paint-by-numbers is not only popular with children, but adults also enjoy it in their free time. Dan Robbins retired(退休)in 1973 and died in 2019. Till this day, his paint-by-numbers is still popular around the world.
59.Palmer Paint is the name of ________.
A. a manager B. a paint school
C. a paint company D. a famous painter
60.Which question is not answered in the passage

A problem is only a problem until there is a way to solve. We find solutions (解决办法) by thinking creatively. We use our imagination and come up with creative ideas.
Amsterdam (阿姆斯特丹) is one of the most crowded cities in Europe. As a result, housing is very expensive, especially for students. Students need low cost apartments. However, finding this kind of apartments is almost impossible.
While the colleges in Amsterdam were trying to solve the housing problem, thousands of shipping containers
(集装箱) were lying quietly in ports (港口) around the world. These huge steel containers carry things from one country to another. The life of each container is about 10 years. The companies recycle some of the old containers. Yet they can't recycle all of them because there are so many.
Back in Amsterdam, a company came up with an amazing idea. Why not reuse these shipping containers as student apartments The containers are great for building apartments. They are all the same size and fit together perfectly. Moreover, these strong containers are so widely available that they are quite cheap to buy. For all these reasons, they can be used to build apartments quickly and cheaply. Building began in 2005, and after only a few weeks, hundreds of Amsterdam students had new homes.
When students first heard about this idea, they thought the container apartments would be small, noisy, and cold. However, they were surprised to see them. Each container apartment has a kitchen, a bedroom with a study area, and a bathroom. The apartments are warm and quiet. They even have a high speed Internet connection. Living in a shipping container has become popular. Today, over 3,000 Amsterdam students live in the container village.
62.According to the passage, Amsterdam is a city with ______.
A. fewer people B. noisy apartments
C. rich students D. expensive housing

A. it's easy to solve housing problems
B. it's popular to live in shipping containers
C. apartments can be built by college students
D. problems can be solved with creative minds
65.The passage is probably from the ________ part of a newspaper.
A. City Development B. Sports Games
C. Problems and Solutions D. History and Culture

One afternoon I toured an art museum while waiting for my husband to finish a business meeting. I was looking forward to a quiet view of the art works.
A young couple viewing the paintings in front of me chatted nonstop between themselves. I watched them a moment and decided the wife was doing all the talk. I admired(钦佩) the husband's patience for standing her
continuous talk. Distracted(分心) by their noise, I moved on.
I met with them several times as I moved through the different rooms of art. Each time I heard her constant(不变的) burst of words, I moved away quickly.
I was standing at the counter of the museum gift shop buying things when the couple came near to the exit. Before they left, the man reached into his pocket and pulled out a white object. He extended(伸展) it into a long stick and then tapped his way into the coatroom to get his wife's jacket.
"He's a brave man." The clerk at the counter said, "Most of us would give up if we were blinded at such a young age. During his recovery he made a promise that his life wouldn't change. So, as before, he and his wife come in whenever there's a new art show."
"But what does he get out of the art "I asked, "He can't see."
"Can't see You're wrong. He sees a lot. More than you or I do." The clerk said, "His wife describes each painting, so he can see it in his head."
I learned something about patience, courage and love that day. I saw the patience of a young wife describing paintings to a person without sight and the courage of a husband who would not allow blindness to change his life. And I saw the love shared by two people as I watched this couple walk away hand in hand.
