   Grant Wood’s American Gothic caused a stir （轰动）in

1930 when it was exhibited for the first time at the Art Institute

of Chicago and awarded a prize of 300 dollars. Newspapers

across the country carried the story, and the painting of a farmer

and a younger woman posed before a white house brought the

artist instant fame.

       In 1930, Grant Wood, an American painter with European training, noticed a small white house built in the small southern Iowa town of Eldon. Wood was so fascinated by it that he decided to paint the house along with the kind of people he thought should live in that house. In the painting, the farmer is modeled on his dentist. Dr. Byron McKeeby. His younger sister Nan served as a model for the woman （imagined to be the farmer’s wife or daughter）. Wood wanted to give a description of the traditional roles of men and women as the man is holding a pitchfork symbolizing hard labor. Each element was painted separately; the models sat separately and never stood in front of the house. The Gothic style of the house inspired the painting’s title.

       American Gothic remains one of the most famous paintings in the history of American art. The painting has become part of American popular culture. Some believe that Wood used it to satirize（讽刺） the narrow-mindedness that has been said to characterize Midwestern culture. The painting may also be read as a praise of the moral virtue or rural America or even as a mixture of praise and satire. American Gothic is one of the few images to reach the status of cultural symbol, along with Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa.

49．Which of the following is true about American Gothic?

       A．It won a prize of ￡ 300.

       B．The two characters in it posed before the White House.

       C．It was the first painting by Grant Wood.

       D．It was on show at the Art Institute of Chicago in 1930.

50．From the passage we can infer Iowa is in __________.

        A．the southern town of Eldon             B．the Midwest of the United States

        C．a European country           D．the city of Chicago

51．Grant Wood chose the two models __________.

       A．to describe traditional roles of men and women

       B．to praise the moral virtue of rural America

       C．to make his dentist and his sister famous

       D．to carry the story across the country

52．The title of the painting is based on __________.

       A．the name of a small town                   B．the man and the woman

       C．the Gothic style of the house     D．the pitchfork symbolizing hard labor

   The person who touched me most is an unknown lady. I study in a city school but lives in a village 15 kilometers away. One afternoon, I receive a call from my family saying my mom was serious ill. I hurried to the bus station, only find the last bus had left. Feel anxious, I decided to walk home. On the way a car stopped and the driver asked me that I needed help. Worried about being cheated, I said anything. But she was such sincere that I finally accepted her offer. When we reached my village, it was dark. Seeing her car out of the sight. I was in tear. Whenever I think of her, I always feel grateful.

 “I was only thirteen when four of my team members and I were chosen by my swim coach to train with the Chinese National Team. The following piece shows how that experience has influenced me.”

     The night before I left for China, my mother called me into her room. I entered not knowing what to expect. I sat down at the end of her very neatly-made bed, opposite the bedroom table on which she kept a Ming-style vase illustrated in great detail. She told me that my great-grandmother was still living in the surroundings of Beijing. Her name was Ren Li Ling and she was 97 years old. This was the first time I had ever heard of her.

 The dragon on the vase snaked through the flowers and vines（藤蔓）as my mother said, “Pu Pu, look at me. You need to hear this so that when you go to China you will understand. You must keep this knowledge in your heart.”

     She told me a story about my grandfather, Ren Li Ling's son, who left Beijing to go to college in Taiwan. She told me how the Chinese civil war kept him away from his mother for fifty years, so neither of them even knew that the other was alive. No one from Taiwan could visit, write, or call anyone in mainland. All lines of communication were cut off.

She told me of my grandfather's devotion to his own children, and how difficult it was for him to send his daughter to America for her education, fearing the same separation. He gave my mother all that he could give — nineteen years of love and fifty years of savings. I learned how my mother, through means only available in this country, would finally be able to unite my great-grandmother with my grandfather again. The dragon curled around the vase, connecting the separate vines. For a fleeting second, I felt it was present in my mother's room. It was all very strange, yet very clear. I began to understand that this trip to China was not just for me; it was for my mother, and her father, and his mother. Now, I had not only a future, but more significantly, a past. I saw the world with new eyes.

And so I went to China and met my great-grandmother. My great-aunt picked me up at the training center, and we rode in a taxi through the crowded city. The noise of the taxi and the city united into a deep roar. We finally stopped in front of a narrow street lined on either side with small one-level houses. As we made our way to a house like all the others, I drew the stares of many people in the street. My great-aunt led me through a rotting doorway into a room with a furnace（炉子）, table, and a rocking chair where an old woman wearing gloves sat facing the doorway, covered with a worn brown blanket. I walked over and immediately embraced this frail woman as if I had known her all my life. My limited, broken Chinese wasn't up to expressing my complicated feelings. And even though I couldn't completely understand what she was saying in her thick Beijing accent, I knew — the same way I knew what my mother had been trying to tell

me before I left. Her joy shone through her toothless smile. She wouldn't let go of my hand. I haltingly（结结巴巴地）asked her how she had managed to live such a long life. She answered in words I will never forget, “Hope has kept me alive. I have lived this long because I wanted to see my son before I died.”

My fellow team members must have wondered how two people separated by three generations could be so close. Before this trip, I would have wondered the same thing. And even now, I can't quite explain it. We were as different as two people can be; some 85 years and 8,000 miles apart. We came from two entirely different cultures; yet we were connected by a common heritage(传统).

I stayed for dinner which was cooked in a black iron wok（锅）over the furnace. The meal was lavish（过分丰盛的）, prepared in my honor. As I began to eat, with my great-grandmother beside me, I felt the dragon was present. But this time, the feeling didn't pass; the dragon had become a part of me.

My great-grandmother passed away last year at the age of 100. With her highest hopes and wildest dreams fulfilled, I know she died happy.

On Christmas Eve, 1944, my grandmother urged my uncle, then 12 years old, to slip out of the concentration camp where they were imprisoned near 15 miles east of Vienna to go to Deutsch-Wagram. “People are charitable around Christmastime,” Grandma Lili said to her son, Gyuri. “Ask for some food. Anything they can spare. Tell them that we’re on the edge of starvation. Tell them that your 3-year-old sister can not get off the bed because she’s outgrown her shoes.”

In the dark of that night, Gyuri secretly left the camp and walked nearly four miles to Deutsch-Wagram, the closest town. He happened upon a house and knocked on the front door. A woman opened that door. She was probably alone, her man far away, fighting in the war, her children asleep in their beds. The 12-year-old pieced together in German exactly what his mother had told him to say.

“Come back tomorrow," whispered the woman. The next day, my uncle returned. The woman opened the door with a smile. She piled his hands with bread, clothing, a pair of shoes that her child had outgrown and a pair of socks. The woman had knitted warm socks for my mother. After putting on the socks and shoes that fit, my mother got off the bed in delight. Her ragged shoes were passed on to a younger child who was also living in the camp. They shared their unexpected harvest with the entire camp. It was a quiet celebration of human kindness around Christmastime.

In April 1945, my mother, uncle and grandmother were liberated. And it was those very socks and shoes that my mother wore as she walked some 28 miles over two days to Bratislava on her walk to a new life.

To the unknown giver, I thank you. In the desperation of a cold and snowy land, when many hearts were closed and death was more likely than life, especially for Jews, you gave them hope and comfort.

25. What did Gyuri manage to do on Christmas Eve?

A. Get permitted to go out.                B. Receive food and clothing.

C. Express what his family needed.          D. Celebrate Christmas in the camp

26. Why does the author mention shoes so many times?

A. To prove the truth of the story.            B. To help the development of the story.

C. To attract readers’ attention to the story.     D. To make clear the background of the story.

27. What feeling did the author write the text with?

A. Desperation       B. Gratefulness.      C. Excitement              D. Sorrow.

28. What is the passage mainly about?

A. Light in darkness                       B. Peace to common people

C. Courage in face of danger                D. The influence of Christmas

Experienced⁃Based Education

Everyone is familiar with traditional education. You sit in a class and a teacher teaches.  This is an important part of development. But at some point, every individual has to take charge of their own education. To do this, one must look at the root of learning.1．

Basically, unfamiliar experiences usually add more value than experiences that are familiar.

2． And we are in a better state to learn something new. Honestly, someone who never experiences the same thing twice will never have a chance to benefit from anything learned. However, new experiences are generally what make people interesting and push them to grow.

High school is a new experience. College is a new experience. However, at some point traditional education becomes repetitive. It is not that you won’t learn anything else, but that the environment is so familiar.3．

To solve this, an individual needs to introduce new experiences into their life. You may spend a summer in a different part of the country or learn a new language through trial and error. You can also go to a drive⁃in movie（or some other entertainment event that is new to you）.4．

These types of experiences often result in very little“book knowledge”.  Instead, they will often provide you with a better understanding of yourself as you experience your reaction to different situations.5． It can be invaluable for you to work effectively with others. Becoming a well ⁃ rounded human isn’t something that happens by accident. You can spend your entire lifetime developing your potential.

A．Has education changed so much in the last decade?

B．They will also provide you with a better understanding of others.

C．Those new experiences may not lead to great personal development.

D．These are all things that can stretch and expand your experience in life.

E.This is because unfamiliar experiences require much more of our attention.

F.As a result, you can easily become less aware of your experience and not learn as much.

G.What makes some experiences add great value to our lives while other experiences do not?

参考词汇:liberal art class文科班    science class 理科班   all-round abilities整体素质

Recently readers have had a heated discussion about whether it's necessary to cancel the division of liberal art classes and science classes in senior middle schools.

What happened to that brilliant idea that you once had? Did you    36    it because you thought that it was just a little thought? Have you ever    37    what that little thought would have become if you had acted on your instincts (直觉)    38    if you had paid more attention to it?

Imagine a scene,    39    you are sitting at home watching television or reading a book, suddenly a light is    40    on in the dark tunnel of your mind as a thought or an idea crosses your mind. The thought    41    your attention but seems so meaningless and you are tempted to    42    it, but wait a minute! That thought could be the potential beginning of the    43    you have so mush wished for.

As the thought crosses your mind, your senses become alert and you suddenly see a possibility, a solution, or find the answer to a problem whose solution has    44    escaped you. It is almost as if a wise man has    45    the perfect solution into your ear or awakened your senses to a reality, thereby bringing light to your life. It is like finding the    46    piece of jigsaw puzzle (拼图游戏). This becomes an amazing moment and everything freezes around you as you excitedly try to grasp the practicality of that    47    but powerful thought.

Your self-confidence and enthusiasm increase as you become    48    of the great possibilities that can    49    if that little thought is acted upon. This becomes the moment to build upon that thought and to put    50    any ideas that are streaming from that little thought for later review.   51   meaningless little thought or ideas when acted  52    have a potential to explode into great projects. Many successful projects have been  53    from the little positive thoughts that were carefully protected and recognized as bricks to great things.

Don't waste a(n)    54    to act on a potentially brilliant idea. You don't have to wait for a major idea, or approval from your peers in order for you to act on that little thought.

That little thought or idea is the    55    of great things if you decide to follow it through.
