Is your family interested in buying a dog? A dog can be a good friend to your family, but if you choose the wrong kind of dog, it can cause you a lot of trouble.

Family should sit down and discuss the problems before buying a dog. Even if the children in your family are the ones who want the dog, the parent are the ones who are really responsible (有责任的) for seeing that the animal is properly cared for. If you don’t know much about dogs, it’s a good idea to go to the library for books about different kinds of dogs, as well as books about how to train a young dog. Dogs of different kinds change in popularity as the years go by. One of the most popular dogs these days is the German shepherd (牧羊犬). This is because it provides protection. The family should be warned that these dogs grow up to be very big, and may be too powerful for children. If your house is not big, a toy dog may be a good choice. These dogs are very small and easy to train. They don’t need to be walked daily.

In most situations, light helps us see. But nowadays humans are using too much of it so that it is in fact a kind of pollution.

When it comes to looking at the night sky, too much light makes it difficult for us to watch some of life’s most wonderful sights: stars, planets and even galaxies(星系).

According to scientific research, about 2, 500 stars can be seen by the human eye without using any special equipment(设备). But because of light pollution, you can only see 200 to 300 stars from today’s countryside, and no more than ten stars from a city. In most big cities, people cannot see the sky filled with stars like they did in their childhood.

Light pollution affects more than just our view of sky. Research shows that lots of nighttime light can harm wildlife, too.

When birds fly to another place over cities, they sometimes get lost by the brightness and fly in circlesuntil they drop from tiredness. Sea turtlesneed dark beaches for laying eggs, but they can’t find their ideal places because of those bright lights.

Too much light at night may even affect human health, but scientists are not sure of that. They are still learning more.

In order to prevent things from going worse, governments and some organizations are working to reduce light pollution. Many cities and towns have taken action to reduce the use of lights at night. Lights are used only when and where they are truly needed. They also shine lights down at the ground instead of up into the sky and use lower brightness levels.

Hopefully, in the near future, humans can enjoy the clear and beautiful sky again and all the wildlife will live a peaceful and undisturbed life, too.

26. Why does the writer think that too much light is a kind of pollution?

A. Because there are fewer and fewer stars.

B. Because human health has been affected.

C. Because too much light is a waste of energy. D. Because some of the wildlife can be harmed.

27. Which of the following is NOT mentionedin this passage?

A. The problems that light pollution has caused. B. The reason why humans use too much light. C. The ways that light pollution can be reduced.

D. The reason why fewer stars can be seen than before. 28. Which of the following is true according to the passage?

A. There are about 2,500 stars in the sky.

B. Humans want to do nothing to reduce light pollution. C. Sea turtles always get lost and die from tiredness.

D. Something has been done to reduce light pollution.

The painter Craigie Aitchison was born in Scotland. He came to London intending(打算)to study law, but went to art school instead. There he found the traditional drawing classes difficult, but still kept on painting.

In his late twenties he was given money by the Italian government to study art and liked early Italian artists, which shows in some of his work. He loved the greens and browns of the Italian fields and the clear light there, and wanted to put this light into his paintings.

This led him to paint colours thinly one on top of another from light to dark, but he insists he's never sure what the results will be. He says, \"It's a secret-because I don't know myself. I don't start by painting yellow, knowing I'm going to put anything on top.\" Like most talented people, Aitchison makes it sound easy. \"Anyone can do the colours-you can buy them. I simply notice what you put the colours next to.\"

Unlike some artists, he never does drawings before he starts a painting, as he feels that if he did, he might get bored and not do the painting afterwards. Instead, Aitchison changes his paintings many times before they are finished. This explains why his favourite models are people who don't ask to see their pictures while he's painting them. \"If I feel they're worried and want to look at the painting, I can't do it.\"

Since moving to London years ago, he has not felt part of the Scottishpainting scene. He says he doesn't want to follow any tradition, but just paints the way he can. However, his work still influences young British painters.

29. In the passage, the writer is trying to _____ .

A. describe particular works by Craigie Aitchison B. teach readers how to paint like Craigie Aitchison C. introduce the artist Craigie Aitchison to the readers

D. explain how Craigie Aitchison has made money from painting 30. What can the reader learn about Aitchison from the passage?

A. He works in a different way from other artists. B. He often gets bored easily with his paintings.

C. He found the drawing classes easy at art school. D. He was sure what his painting was like before drawing. 31. Aitchison prefers models who don't _____ .

A. keep moving around while he's working B. ask him about his strange method of working C. worry about how long the work will take D. feel worried to see the work as it's developing

32. What might a visitor at an exhibition say about Aitchison's work?

I'll always remember the day I went to my first dance class. My mother was an excellent balletdancer and I wanted nothing more than to follow her.

After class, my mom asked how I liked it. I thought of what had happened in the class: when I stood side by side with those experienced and confident girls, all my clumsy(笨拙的)movements made me want to cry. However, I still told my mom I couldn't wait to dance again.

Weeks passed and one day my dance teacher announced we were going to have a performance soon. Though I practiced as much as I could, I still saw no improvement in my ballet ability. I went to my mom and told her that dancing wasn't for me. My mom told me that she would show me all she knew about ballet. She quickly discovered how bad my dancing was, but she still taught me with the greatest patience.

By the time the performance arrived, I had been as prepared as I could be. My mom sat in the audience(观众)，with worries in her eyes. I positioned myself and began moving to the music without missing a step. When the music stopped, a storm of applause broke out. I cried and I knew all my hard work had paid off.

After the performance, my mom hugged me and told me how proud she was. I looked her in the eye and told her there was no way this could have happened without her. I knew she would always be there to keep me going. 53. What was the writer's mother?
