But even though I adored writing, I still knew that being a real-life writer was a dream both great and impossible.At different times I harboured the possibility that it might work. When I was seventeen, I wrote a story that was published in a collection. At college, I entered local writing competitions and had success. A couple of times, I wanted to register for a creating writing degree offered by Harvard University, but each time, the fear of failure held me back. Then I understood the dream was indeed impossible and I gave up writing setting out on the path to become a teacher.Years later, after my daughter was born and deep in the intense world of a newborn, I felt urged to scribble (草草写下) madly. Then, two years later, late at night as I fed my second daughter. I read a book written by one of my teachers and it lit me up. I was hungry to make a reader feel something as intensely as she had made me feel.I got in touch with my old teacher and with her encouragement, I finally registered for a creative writing degree and got actively involved in the writing events. At a literary event, I listened to a panel of writers and publishers talk about the need to be brave and take chances. At the end of the event, I took one of those chances, handing my as-yet-unfinished manuscript (手稿) to one of the panelists, who told me to send her the first three chapters via e-mail.Six months later, I had my first publishing contract and felt like I’d won the lottery (彩票). There are a thousand different paths to publication, most of them with some rocky patches before the thrilling moment you hold your book in your hands.4.Why did the author quit the idea of being a writer?A.She had applied for a degree.

Many people seem to think so, judging the things they wear. But fashion is not everything. It is more important to be a healthy and good person.People go to great lengths to be fashionable. Some people think they have to have a certain body type, so they go on extreme, unhealthy diets in order to change their bodies. In addition, many women wear uncomfortable fashions, such as high-heeled shoes and tight body shapers that limit blood flow. Men and women alike spend time and money on products that change their natural hair color and use hot irons and blow dryers to curl or straighten their hair. Some people spend several hours a day in front of a mirror. Is fashion important enough to spend so much time and effort on changing how you look like?If the purpose of fashion is to make a person feel good, it does not make sense that he or she would go through so much discomfort to be fashionable. Fashion should not come first. People should focus on being healthy and positive. What people wear does not show anything about their personalities. Instead of spending hours choosing a suit, perhaps you should call your friends and do something together! Instead of going on strict diets and starving, why not eat some healthy foods and then exercises? By doing these things, you can keep a healthy lifestyle and truly grow as a person.8.The author’s main purpose in writing the text is to .A.show readers advantages and disadvantages of dietingB.persuade readers to value health more than fashionC.tell readers ways to become fashionableD.inform readers of the latest fashion trends9.Which statement best shows the author’s opinion?A.Fashion can make people do some unhealthy things.B.Fashion increases famous people’s self-respect.C.When you look good, you feel good.D.People need to diet to lose weight.10.What does the underlined phrase “go to great lengths” possibly mean in paragraph 2?A.go abroad B.spend lots of moneyC.do everything possible D.buy expensive clothing11.Which of the following activities would the author most likely suggest?A.Shopping for fashionable clothes B.Starting a strict diet with a friendC.Going skating with friends D.Changing the hairstyle every weekD(说明文)Every year, the Palace of Fine. Arts Theatre in San Francisco fills up with dance lovers. They come to take in experimental works of art that all have one thing in common — hip hop. This weekend the San Francisco International Hip Hop DanceFest, the mission of which is to encourage the evolution of hip hop dance culture while preserving its legacy, celebrates 20 years of presenting exciting hip hop performances.Each DanceFest has diversity of style and group size, and a balance of local and out-of-town companies. The festival has drawn impressive international talents. In fact, outstanding technical dance skills are only a basic standard that the festival organizers are looking for. They look for much more groups or solo artists that think outside the box. Artists that use hip hop in a theatrical way or use it to address social issues are sure to stand out. For instance, the 2010 performance “Tables and Chairs” served to highlight the negative effects of alcoholism on society, warning people against the addiction to alcohol.It would be terribly irresponsible not to mention the founder, Micaya, in any introduction to DanceFest. A popular hip hop dance instructor, Micaya began producing high energy dance shows in the heart of San Francisco in 1993. Students love her classes so much that a San Francisco newspaper once called her “Best Dance Instructor”.However, Micaya was concerned about the doubtful reputation of hip hop. She made it her goal to get hip hop the same recognition and respect as other dance forms. In 1999 she started DanceFest. It was the first festival of its kind to honor the creativity of hip hop dance in a non-competitive atmosphere. To Micaya, competitive formats leave little room for the magic that comes from true expression. One review said, Micaya's festival challenges us “to reconsider just how diverse ... and embracing hip hop can now be.” Indeed, Micaya brings out the best in dancers, and has given San Francisco one of its finest festivals.12.Why is the San Francisco International Hip Hop DanceFest held?A.To attract international talents.B.To encourage people to play hip hop.C.To show the diversity of hip hop style.D.To promote the development of hip hop dance culture.13.What does the underlined word “address” in Paragraph 2 mean?A.Handle. B.Discuss.C.Recognize. D.Record.14.What can we infer about Micaya?A.She was a popular hip hop composer in 1993.B.She made hip hop dance less diverse in 1999.C.She popularizes hip hop dance through the DanceFest.D.She contributes to the increasing competition of hip hop dance.15.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.The Rise and Fall of Hip Hop B.A Unique Hip Hop DanceFestC.A Famous Hip Hop Dancer D.The Development of Hip Hop DanceFest 参考答案ACD BADA BACC DACB
