Famous Train Stations

A relaxing way of getting around is to travel by train. Many train stations have grown into impressive structures over the years and are famous for their architecture. Here's a look at two of them.

Paddington Station

Location: London, England.

Built: 1854, but the train stop has existed there since 1838.

Famous for: Paddington Bear.

Paddington was originally a stop for the Great Western Railway. This took people on holiday to resorts in southwest England. The main station was designed by Isambard Kingdom Brunel, a famous engineer.

Paddington Bear is a famous children's story character. He got his name from this station. There is a small tourist shop in the station that sells Paddington Bear souvenirs. The station has appeared in films and fiction. In fact, the mystery writer Agatha Christie wrote a book named 4.50 from Paddington. There was also a gangster film that featured the station called The Long Good Friday.

Grand Central Station

Location: New York City, the United States.

Built：1871.

Famous for: Having the most platforms in the world.

There are forty­four platforms in Grand Central Station, and there will be forty­eight once a new Manhattan East access line is finished.

There have been a number of films with scenes from Grand Central Station. Scenes from Superman take place in the station, but are actually filmed in London. The scene in North by Northwest(1959) was filmed at night inside the real Grand Central Station. Another film with scenes from Grand Central Station is The Untouchables(1987)．

The station is home to over 100 businesses and transports 125，000 commuters per day. If you ever visit Grand Central, you will be one of 500，000 daily visitors.

(2019·惠州市第二次调研)I realized something this morning. I have been writing now for 34 years. It all started when I was just 18 years old. As a boy I had read literally hundreds of books. I had a thirst for knowledge that seemingly could never fade. Then suddenly I found I had something I wanted to share. I tried to ignore it, but as any writer tells you once the ideas awaken inside of you they won't leave you alone until you write them down. I didn't have a computer，word processor，or even a typewriter. Still, I grabbed a pen and lined notebook paper and wrote everything that was burning inside of me.

When I was done I didn't know how to share it. There was no Internet back then，no smart phones，and no social media. I sought out the editor of my local county newspaper and asked him to print what I had written. He was a good man full of both wisdom and kindness. He not only printed my first story but agreed to publish anything else I was willing to write. I continued to write new articles each week and shared them first with other local papers and later online as well. Years later at the urging of my readers I even self­published two collections of my stories in book form.

Through my writing I slowly became more than I was. In my writings I encountered my highest self. In my writings I discovered the goodness and light that lie in us all. In my writings I found great love and joy and encouraged others to choose love and joy as well. I also found that we all are writers whether we put pen to paper or not. With every choice we make, with every thought we hold，and with everything we do，we are writing our own life story.

Lance Wubbels once wrote：“I hope you realize your life is truly your life. It belongs to you. It is your story to write with love. Day by day，line by line，write it well.”

A．He was hired as a newspaper editor.

B．He put his stories online by himself.

C．He self­published two books.

D．He was helped by a local newspaper editor.

6．What does the author think of writing?

A．Writing takes practice and efforts.

B．Writing can benefit oneself and others.

C．Writing helps people tell right from wrong.

D．Only with a pen can one write his life story.

In my writings I found great love and joy and encouraged others to choose love and joy as well”可知，作者在自己的作品中，遇到了最好的自己，发现了所有的人身上都有的善良和光明，还找到了伟大的爱和欢乐，并鼓励别人也选择爱和欢乐。由此可推知，作者认为写作利己利人，故选B。]

7．Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
