A
There are always the same number of restaurants on The Top 100, but every year offers more — more quality, more variety, more surprises. What never changes is how a restaurant gets on the list — wonderful food well served in an inviting setting, among which are some Chinese restaurants.
Long Island Pekin
Long Island Pekin reminds us of the first Chinese foods many of us fell in love with: the roast duck and pork, the lo mein and fried rice, the steamed dumplings and pot stickers. There are more, than a dozen dumplings and buns to start the meal, three types of noodles and then meats roasted in the “hung oven”， including Peking duck.
New Fu Run
New Fu Run has been serving the cuisine of Dongbei in Great Neck since 2017. Dongbei cooking tends to be earthier than Cantonese and not as spicy as Sichuan. Treat your taste buds (味蕾) to a cold starter of country-style beef with cucumber and the signature dish — Cumin Lamb Chop. Longing for something more familiar Call three days in advance and New Fu Run will’ prepare a three-course meal based on Peking Duck.
Splendid Noodle
It’s always a splendid occasion when there’s a chef twisting, pounding and swinging ropes of wheat noodles in the air. The most sought-after Chinese noodle houses have an open kitchen where the acrobatics (杂技) are on display. The Stony Brook shop offers this wavy noodle as well as a couple cold noodle dishes in light sesame sauce.
21. What qualifies a restaurant to get on the list of The Top 100
A. Unique dishes.
B. A splendid occasion.
C. Great food and environment.
D. More quality, variety and surprises.
22 What do Long Island Pekin and New Fu Run have in common
A. They serve spicy food.
B. They offer Peking Duck.
C. They have a cooking display.
D. They require advance reservations.
23. Where is this text most probably taken from
A. A cuisine book. B. A restaurant guide.
C. A restaurant marketing plan. D. An online food delivery platform.
B
The South Bronx is one of the poorest and most polluted places in America, with smog-choked freeways and smelly wastewater treatment plants.
“We’re a dumping ground,” Omar explains. “All the garbage from the rest of New York City ends up here.”
But Omar started looking at garbage in a different way. “A lot of what people throw away is perfectly good,” he says. “Just look at that stuff from construction sites — doors, sinks, toilets. People will buy those things. It’s only called garbage because somebody threw it away.” Omar was just out of college and working for an environmental group called Sustainable South Bronx when he started considering how to get this “good garbage” to people who could use it. Instead of destroying old things, why not clean them up and resell them Why not hire people in the community to do the work Better yet, why not make this business a “cooperative,” which means the people working in the business own it and share the profits
Out of this Omar started the first cooperative in the country dedicated to reusing construction waste. To start his business, Omar put up flyers along the truck-jammed, trash-filled neighborhood streets, looking for people to work with him. He soon found four other dedicated workers. They rented a warehouse and started looking for donations of used materials.
In April 2008, Omar’s cooperative, ReBuilders Source, opened its business and began selling construction supplies — at reasonable prices — to neighborhood builders and home owners. With the help of city officials, he also began planning a new training program to help local residents learn the skills to get good jobs that help the environment and even start their own cooperatives. Workers were trained to carefully take buildings apart so that things like doors and windows can be reused instead of being smashed and sent off to a landfill. Deconstructing buildings this way could be a huge industry with many good jobs for people who need them.
“If you have a use for something,” Omar says, “it’s no longer waste.”
24. Why is the South Bronx mentioned in the first paragraph
A. To arouse readers’ interest. B. To serve as the background information.
C. To contrast with the other districts. D. To introduce a famous place.
25. Which was Not the reason for Omar’s creating a cooperative business
A. To provide jobs for local people. B. To deal with dumped rubbish.
C. To increase cooperation among neighbors. D. To make money from garbage.
26. Which of the following words best describe Omar
A Idealistic and business-minded. B. Creative and action-oriented.
C. Practical and self-focused. D. Devoted and iron-hearted.
27. Which saying might interpret Omar’s action
A. Knowledge starts with practice. B. One good turn deserves another.
C. Four eyes see more than two. D. Kill two birds with one stone.
C
For generations, we’ve spent the first third of our lives acquiring the college degrees we need to find jobs. These degrees are the stamps on our professional passports that pave the way for the remaining two-thirds of our journey. However, the future of work won’t be about college degrees; it’ll be about job skills.
According to the World Economic Forum, over one billion jobs, almost one-third of all jobs worldwide, are likely to be transformed by technology in the next decade. We’ve already seen this happen. Think of the apps you use to shop, track orders and simply stay informed. The stores need to keep them up and running at all hours, day after day, all year round, meaning they need those who can analyze and secure customer data.
In these and other similar situations, people are the organizing force making sure technology works the way we want it to. This means a quick rise in new kinds of digital jobs. According to the Forum’s Jobs of Tomorrow report, there’ll be a rapid influx of roles at the forefront of the data and AI economy, as well as new roles in engineering, cloud computing and product development. These jobs need talent with relevant skills, and importantly these skills can be learnt even by those without college degrees.
Shifting our focus from degrees to skills will mean transitioning (过渡) to always-on skills-based education and employment organizations that acknowledge not just certification but fitness-for-job and employment as outcomes. In recent years, several companies have focused on continuous learning for the workforce — the trend will become stronger.
When it comes to skills, employers look for more than just technical panies want people with an eye for detail, creative problem-solving skills, a collaborative mindset and an ability to handle complex issues. These too are skills that can be learnt. Anyhow, lifelong learners with ever relevant skills will be in greater demand in the workplace.
28. How does technology influence the jobs
A. It calls for higher demands for degrees. B. It makes many jobs less challenging.
C. It reduces their dependence on degrees. D. It connects them with degrees closely.
29. What does the underlined word “influx” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A. Change. B. Recovery. C. Decline. D. Increase.
30. What will future employers value most concerning their staff
A. Their traditional technical skills. B. Their continuous learning abilities.
C. Their certification-based education. D. Their desire to start their own business
31. What might be the best title for the text
A. Skills Are Different From Degrees B. Degrees Will Be More Competitive
C. Degrees Will Shape the Future of Work D. Skills Are More Vital for Future Work
D
Marketers are often very conscious of the ways that their advertisements can backfire or “go wrong” in the eyes of their audiences. However, this rarely happens and there are virtually no cases where advertising has resulted in a decline in sales.
A psychological reason can account for the cause. It has to do with the mere exposure effect, which basically means that the more we’re exposed to something, the more we like it. The mere exposure effect is commonly attributed to Robert Zajonc for the important research that he conducted in the 1960s. His research, and the research of many others, shows that we tend to develop a liking or positive feeling for symbols or items that we see repeatedly.
When we take the mere exposure effect into account, it becomes clear why advertising rarely has a negative impact. Advertising helps to put brand assets (资产), like your logo and color and product and brand characters, in front of people, and the more these assets get in front of people, the more likely people are to develop positive feelings toward these assets and your brand. In fact, the impact of the mere exposure effect has been shown specifically in studies using advertisements, and they have found that students rated a banner ad more favorably when they had previously appeared as a pop up on their computer.
In order to fully take advantage of the mere exposure effect in marketing, marketers should make sure to use recognizable elements within their advertising. In addition, they should make sure that these elements align with what the customers see when they see the product. This will ensure that your customers will have an easier time noticing the product on the store shelves or on the computer screen and that they will have some familiarity with the brand.
The mere exposure effect is just one of many psychological biases that people use to simplify how they go about the world. Feel free to contact us or sign up for our newsletter to stay in touch with the latest insights in marketing psychology.
32. Which statement will Robert Zajonc probably agree with
A. A familiar song becomes more appealing.
B. We often follow trends to make daily purchases.
C. People are often drawn to something unfamiliar.
D. Advertising with celebrities can increase product sales.
33. What can be inferred from paragraph 3
A Advertisement creates instant brand love.
B. Logos seen often in advertisements are rarely liked.
C. The banner ad has a significant attraction for consumers.
D. Advertisement uses exposure to develop brand appreciation.
34. What does the underlined part in paragraph 4 refer to
A. Contribute to. B. Correspond to. C. Differ from. D. Depend on.
35. Where is the text most probably taken from
A. A business webpage. B. A news report. C. A psychology textbook. D. A marketer’s diary.

It was a sunny day. Anabia, an 11-year-old girl, was excited because today was the drawing contest at her school. Anabia was really good at drawing and usually got the highest marks in art. Her teachers would often ask her to make posters for school plays and call on her during free periods to help with cuttings, drawing, shading, colouring and much more. There was an art competition taking place in school and Anabia had worked really hard and wanted to win it. But there was one thing that was disturbing her today.
Recently, a new girl, Rida, had joined her class. She was also interested in art but she was not as good at drawing as Anabia was. Miss Saima, the art teacher, helped Rida and taught her tips and tricks to improve her drawing skill. And now Rida was also considered among the best artists in grade six.
Rida was quick, smart and intelligent. Anabia became jealous of Rida’s intelligence and felt that the new girl would be tough to beat.
So that day, for the art competition, Miss Saima took all the students to the art room, told them their roll numbers and gave important instructions. Anabia’s roll number was 16, while Rida was number 17. The bell rang, indicating the beginning of the contest. Miss Saima wrote on the board: make a scene of a sunset with a flowing river and a sailing boat.
Anabia knew that the best tools to make a sunset were oil pastels (油画棒). Anabia started to look for her oil pastels in her art bag. Then, after looking through the bag, she remembered that she had left them at home. Immediately, she got up to tell Miss Saima.
Miss Saima was disappointed at Anabia’s carelessness and told her that she could not help her, as it was her responsibility to come prepared for the contest that had been announced a week in advance. Anabia’s best friends were also there, but none of them offered to share anything, much to Anabia’s surprise and disappointment.
注意：
1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右;

Anabia’ s eyes filled with tears.

It was a sunny day. Anabia, an 11-year-old girl, was excited because today was the drawing contest at her school. Anabia was really good at drawing and usually got the highest marks in art. Her teachers would often ask her to make posters for school plays and call on her during free periods to help with cuttings, drawing, shading, colouring and much more. There was an art competition taking place in school and Anabia had worked really hard and wanted to win it. But there was one thing that was disturbing her today.
Recently, a new girl, Rida, had joined her class. She was also interested in art but she was not as good at drawing as Anabia was. Miss Saima, the art teacher, helped Rida and taught her tips and tricks to improve her drawing skill. And now Rida was also considered among the best artists in grade six.
Rida was quick, smart and intelligent. Anabia became jealous of Rida’s intelligence and felt that the new girl would be tough to beat.
So that day, for the art competition, Miss Saima took all the students to the art room, told them their roll numbers and gave important instructions. Anabia’s roll number was 16, while Rida was number 17. The bell rang, indicating the beginning of the contest. Miss Saima wrote on the board: make a scene of a sunset with a flowing river and a sailing boat.

There are always the same number of restaurants on The Top 100, but every year offers more — more quality, more variety, more surprises. What never changes is how a restaurant gets on the list — wonderful food well served in an inviting setting, among which are some Chinese restaurants.
Long Island Pekin
Long Island Pekin reminds us of the first Chinese foods many of us fell in love with: the roast duck and pork, the lo mein and fried rice, the steamed dumplings and pot stickers. There are more, than a dozen dumplings and buns to start the meal, three types of noodles and then meats roasted in the “hung oven”， including Peking duck.
New Fu Run
New Fu Run has been serving the cuisine of Dongbei in Great Neck since 2017. Dongbei cooking tends to be earthier than Cantonese and not as spicy as Sichuan. Treat your taste buds (味蕾) to a cold starter of country-style beef with cucumber and the signature dish — Cumin Lamb Chop. Longing for something more familiar Call three days in advance and New Fu Run will’ prepare a three-course meal based on Peking Duck.
Splendid Noodle
It’s always a splendid occasion when there’s a chef twisting, pounding and swinging ropes of wheat noodles in the air. The most sought-after Chinese noodle houses have an open kitchen where the acrobatics (杂技) are on display. The Stony Brook shop offers this wavy noodle as well as a couple cold noodle dishes in light sesame sauce.

The South Bronx is one of the poorest and most polluted places in America, with smog-choked freeways and smelly wastewater treatment plants.
“We’re a dumping ground,” Omar explains. “All the garbage from the rest of New York City ends up here.”
But Omar started looking at garbage in a different way. “A lot of what people throw away is perfectly good,” he says. “Just look at that stuff from construction sites — doors, sinks, toilets. People will buy those things. It’s only called garbage because somebody threw it away.” Omar was just out of college and working for an environmental group called Sustainable South Bronx when he started considering how to get this “good garbage” to people who could use it. Instead of destroying old things, why not clean them up and resell them Why not hire people in the community to do the work Better yet, why not make this business a “cooperative,” which means the people working in the business own it and share the profits
Out of this Omar started the first cooperative in the country dedicated to reusing construction waste. To start his business, Omar put up flyers along the truck-jammed, trash-filled neighborhood streets, looking for people to work with him. He soon found four other dedicated workers. They rented a warehouse and started looking for donations of used materials.
In April 2008, Omar’s cooperative, ReBuilders Source, opened its business and began selling construction supplies — at reasonable prices — to neighborhood builders and home owners. With the help of city officials, he also began planning a new training program to help local residents learn the skills to get good jobs that help the environment and even start their own cooperatives. Workers were trained to carefully take buildings apart so that things like doors and windows can be reused instead of being smashed and sent off to a landfill. Deconstructing buildings this way could be a huge industry with many good jobs for people who need them.
“If you have a use for something,” Omar says, “it’s no longer waste.”
24. Why is the South Bronx mentioned in the first paragraph
A. To arouse readers’ interest. B. To serve as the background information.
C. To contrast with the other districts. D. To introduce a famous place.
25. Which was Not the reason for Omar’s creating a cooperative business
A. To provide jobs for local people. B. To deal with dumped rubbish.
C. To increase cooperation among neighbors. D. To make money from garbage.
26. Which of the following words best describe Omar
A Idealistic and business-minded. B. Creative and action-oriented.
C. Practical and self-focused. D. Devoted and iron-hearted.
27. Which saying might interpret Omar’s action
A. Knowledge starts with practice. B. One good turn deserves another.
C. Four eyes see more than two. D. Kill two birds with one stone.
C
For generations, we’ve spent the first third of our lives acquiring the college degrees we need to find jobs. These degrees are the stamps on our professional passports that pave the way for the remaining two-thirds of our journey. However, the future of work won’t be about college degrees; it’ll be about job skills.
According to the World Economic Forum, over one billion jobs, almost one-third of all jobs worldwide, are likely to be transformed by technology in the next decade. We’ve already seen this happen. Think of the apps you use to shop, track orders and simply stay informed. The stores need to keep them up and running at all hours, day after day, all year round, meaning they need those who can analyze and secure customer data.
In these and other similar situations, people are the organizing force making sure technology works the way we want it to. This means a quick rise in new kinds of digital jobs. According to the Forum’s Jobs of Tomorrow report, there’ll be a rapid influx of roles at the forefront of the data and AI economy, as well as new roles in engineering, cloud computing and product development. These jobs need talent with relevant skills, and importantly these skills can be learnt even by those without college degrees.
Shifting our focus from degrees to skills will mean transitioning (过渡) to always-on skills-based education and employment organizations that acknowledge not just certification but fitness-for-job and employment as outcomes. In recent years, several companies have focused on continuous learning for the workforce — the trend will become stronger.
When it comes to skills, employers look for more than just technical panies want people with an eye for detail, creative problem-solving skills, a collaborative mindset and an ability to handle complex issues. These too are skills that can be learnt. Anyhow, lifelong learners with ever relevant skills will be in greater demand in the workplace.
28. How does technology influence the jobs
A. It calls for higher demands for degrees. B. It makes many jobs less challenging.
C. It reduces their dependence on degrees. D. It connects them with degrees closely.
29. What does the underlined word “influx” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A. Change. B. Recovery. C. Decline. D. Increase.
30. What will future employers value most concerning their staff
A. Their traditional technical skills. B. Their continuous learning abilities.
C. Their certification-based education. D. Their desire to start their own business
31. What might be the best title for the text
A. Skills Are Different From Degrees B. Degrees Will Be More Competitive
C. Degrees Will Shape the Future of Work D. Skills Are More Vital for Future Work
D
Marketers are often very conscious of the ways that their advertisements can backfire or “go wrong” in the eyes of their audiences. However, this rarely happens and there are virtually no cases where advertising has resulted in a decline in sales.
A psychological reason can account for the cause. It has to do with the mere exposure effect, which basically means that the more we’re exposed to something, the more we like it. The mere exposure effect is commonly attributed to Robert Zajonc for the important research that he conducted in the 1960s. His research, and the research of many others, shows that we tend to develop a liking or positive feeling for symbols or items that we see repeatedly.
When we take the mere exposure effect into account, it becomes clear why advertising rarely has a negative impact. Advertising helps to put brand assets (资产), like your logo and color and product and brand characters, in front of people, and the more these assets get in front of people, the more likely people are to develop positive feelings toward these assets and your brand. In fact, the impact of the mere exposure effect has been shown specifically in studies using advertisements, and they have found that students rated a banner ad more favorably when they had previously appeared as a pop up on their computer.
In order to fully take advantage of the mere exposure effect in marketing, marketers should make sure to use recognizable elements within their advertising. In addition, they should make sure that these elements align with what the customers see when they see the product. This will ensure that your customers will have an easier time noticing the product on the store shelves or on the computer screen and that they will have some familiarity with the brand.
The mere exposure effect is just one of many psychological biases that people use to simplify how they go about the world. Feel free to contact us or sign up for our newsletter to stay in touch with the latest insights in marketing psychology.
32. Which statement will Robert Zajonc probably agree with
A. A familiar song becomes more appealing.
B. We often follow trends to make daily purchases.
C. People are often drawn to something unfamiliar.
D. Advertising with celebrities can increase product sales.
33. What can be inferred from paragraph 3
A Advertisement creates instant brand love.
B. Logos seen often in advertisements are rarely liked.
C. The banner ad has a significant attraction for consumers.
D. Advertisement uses exposure to develop brand appreciation.
34. What does the underlined part in paragraph 4 refer to
A. Contribute to. B. Correspond to. C. Differ from. D. Depend on.
35. Where is the text most probably taken from
A. A business webpage. B. A news report. C. A psychology textbook. D. A marketer’s diary.

The South Bronx is one of the poorest and most polluted places in America, with smog-choked freeways and smelly wastewater treatment plants.
“We’re a dumping ground,” Omar explains. “All the garbage from the rest of New York City ends up here.”
But Omar started looking at garbage in a different way. “A lot of what people throw away is perfectly good,” he says. “Just look at that stuff from construction sites — doors, sinks, toilets. People will buy those things. It’s only called garbage because somebody threw it away.” Omar was just out of college and working for an environmental group called Sustainable South Bronx when he started considering how to get this “good garbage” to people who could use it. Instead of destroying old things, why not clean them up and resell them Why not hire people in the community to do the work Better yet, why not make this business a “cooperative,” which means the people working in the business own it and share the profits
Out of this, Omar started the first cooperative in the country dedicated to reusing construction waste. To start his business, Omar put up flyers along the truck-jammed, trash-filled neighborhood streets, looking for people to work with him. He soon found four other dedicated workers. They rented a warehouse and started looking for donations of used materials.
In April 2008, Omar’s cooperative, ReBuilders Source, opened its business and began selling construction supplies — at reasonable prices — to neighborhood builders and home owners. With the help of city officials, he also began planning a new training program to help local residents learn the skills to get good jobs that help the environment and even start their own cooperatives. Workers were trained to carefully take buildings apart so that things like doors and windows can be reused instead of being smashed and sent off to a landfill. Deconstructing buildings this way could be a huge industry with many good jobs for people who need them.
“If you have a use for something,” Omar says, “it’s no longer waste.”
24. Why is the South Bronx mentioned in the first paragraph
A. To arouse readers’ interest. B. To serve as the background information.
C. To contrast with the other districts. D. To introduce a famous place.
25. Which was Not the reason for Omar’s creating a cooperative business
A. To provide jobs for local people. B. To deal with dumped rubbish.
C. To increase cooperation among neighbors. D. To make money from garbage.
26. Which of the following words best describe Omar
A. Idealistic and business-minded. B. Creative and action-oriented.
C. Practical and self-focused. D. Devoted and iron-hearted.
27. Which saying might interpret Omar’s action
A. Knowledge starts with practice. B. One good turn deserves another.
C. Four eyes see more than two. D. Kill two birds with one stone.

For generations, we’ve spent the first third of our lives acquiring the college degrees we need to find jobs. These degrees are the stamps on our professional passports that pave the way for the remaining two-thirds of our journey. However, the future of work won’t be about college degrees; it’ll be about job skills.
According to the World Economic Forum, over one billion jobs, almost one-third of all jobs worldwide, are likely to be transformed by technology in the next decade. We’ve already seen this happen. Think of the apps you use to shop, track orders and simply stay informed. The stores need to keep them up and running at all hours, day after day, all year round, meaning they need those who can analyze and secure customer data.
In these and other similar situations, people are the organizing force making sure technology works the way we want it to. This means a quick rise in new kinds of digital jobs. According to the Forum’s Jobs of Tomorrow report, there’ll be a rapid influx of roles at the forefront of the data and AI economy, as well as new roles in engineering, cloud computing and product development. These jobs need talent with relevant skills, and importantly these skills can be learnt even by those without college degrees.
Shifting our focus from degrees to skills will mean transitioning (过渡) to always-on skills-based education and employment organizations that acknowledge not just certification but fitness-for-job and employment as outcomes. In recent years, several companies have focused on continuous learning for the workforce — the trend will become stronger.
When it comes to skills, employers look for more than just technical panies want people with an eye for detail, creative problem-solving skills, a collaborative mindset and an ability to handle complex issues. These too are skills that can be learnt. Anyhow, lifelong learners with ever relevant skills will be in greater demand in the workplace.
28. How does technology influence the jobs
A. It calls for higher demands for degrees. B. It makes many jobs less challenging.
C. It reduces their dependence on degrees. D. It connects them with degrees closely.
29. What does the underlined word “influx” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A. Change. B. Recovery. C. Decline. D. Increase.
30. What will future employers value most concerning their staff
A. Their traditional technical skills. B. Their continuous learning abilities.
C. Their certification-based education. D. Their desire to start their own business
31. What might be the best title for the text
A. Skills Are Different From Degrees B. Degrees Will Be More Competitive
C. Degrees Will Shape the Future of Work D. Skills Are More Vital for Future Work
【答案】28. C 29. D 30. B 31. D

Marketers are often very conscious of the ways that their advertisements can backfire or “go wrong” in the eyes of their audiences. However, this rarely happens and there are virtually no cases where advertising has resulted in a decline in sales.
A psychological reason can account for the cause. It has to do with the mere exposure effect, which basically means that the more we’re exposed to something, the more we like it. The mere exposure effect is commonly attributed to Robert Zajonc for the important research that he conducted in the 1960s. His research, and the research of many others, shows that we tend to develop a liking or positive feeling for symbols or items that we see repeatedly.
When we take the mere exposure effect into account, it becomes clear why advertising rarely has a negative impact. Advertising helps to put brand assets (资产), like your logo and color and product and brand characters, in front of people, and the more these assets get in front of people, the more likely people are to develop positive feelings toward these assets and your brand. In fact, the impact of the mere exposure effect has been shown specifically in studies using advertisements, and they have found that students rated a banner ad more favorably when they had previously appeared as a pop up on their computer.
In order to fully take advantage of the mere exposure effect in marketing marketers should make sure to use recognizable elements within their advertising. In addition, they should make sure that these elements align with what the customers see when they see the product. This will ensure that your customers will have an easier time noticing the product on the store shelves or on the computer screen and that they will have some familiarity with the brand.
The mere exposure effect is just one of many psychological biases that people use to simplify how they go about the world. Feel free to contact us or sign up for our newsletter to stay in touch with the latest insights in marketing psychology.
32. Which statement will Robert Zajonc probably agree with
A. A familiar song becomes more appealing.
B. We often follow trends to make daily purchases.
C. People are often drawn to something unfamiliar.
D. Advertising with celebrities can increase product sales.
33. What can be inferred from paragraph 3
A. Advertisement creates instant brand love.
B. Logos seen often in advertisements are rarely liked.
C. The banner ad has a significant attraction for consumers.
D. Advertisement uses exposure to develop brand appreciation.
34. What does the underlined part in paragraph 4 refer to
A. Contribute to. B. Correspond to. C. Differ from. D. Depend on.
35. Where is the text most probably taken from
A. A business webpage. B. A news report. C. A psychology textbook. D. A marketer’s diary.

It was a sunny day. Anabia, an 11-year-old girl, was excited because today was the drawing contest at her school. Anabia was really good at drawing and usually got the highest marks in art. Her teachers would often ask her to make posters for school plays and call on her during free periods to help with cuttings, drawing, shading, colouring and much more. There was an art competition taking place in school and Anabia had worked really hard and wanted to win it. But there was one thing that was disturbing her today.
Recently, a new girl, Rida, had joined her class. She was also interested in art but she was not as good at drawing as Anabia was. Miss Saima, the art teacher, helped Rida and taught her tips and tricks to improve her drawing skill. And now Rida was also considered among the best artists in grade six.
Rida was quick, smart and intelligent. Anabia became jealous of Rida’s intelligence and felt that the new girl would be tough to beat.
So that day, for the art competition, Miss Saima took all the students to the art room, told them their roll numbers and gave important instructions. Anabia’s roll number was 16, while Rida was number 17. The bell rang, indicating the beginning of the contest. Miss Saima wrote on the board: make a scene of a sunset with a flowing river and a sailing boat.
Anabia knew that the best tools to make a sunset were oil pastels (油画棒). Anabia started to look for her oil pastels in her art bag. Then, after looking through the bag, she remembered that she had left them at home. Immediately, she got up to tell Miss Saima.
Miss Saima was disappointed at Anabia’s carelessness and told her that she could not help her, as it was her responsibility to come prepared for the contest that had been announced a week in advance.
