18．Though many Internet celebrities try to shrug off their fame，Yan Mingliang，27，has dreamed of joining the Internet elite（精英） ever since he entered college．
However，luck didn't favor him．Instead，fame fell into the lap of his pet dog，Beiji．In early 2015，Yan used his microblog to post two pictures of Beiji lying on the ground，and they went viral on social media．Because he took the photos at a strange angle，it almost looks like Beiji's body has fallen apart．
Finally，Yan got to experience what is like to be an Internet celebrity，or more accurately，the owner of an Internet celebrity dog．New followers started to flood in，and Yan received hundreds of private messages each day．In less than four weeks，Yan managed to attract more than 20，000followers．"I am famous now．"Yan thought at that time．
However，fame didn't just bring joy，but also annoyance．Since Beiji was only 3months old and Yan sometimes had to put him into a cage as a means of"education"，there were also private messages from followers who fiercely criticized Yan for being too cruel．
"It gradually occurred to me that no matter how frankly you present yourself on social media，Internet users only witness part of your life．And their judgments depend on that partial life story of yours，"said Yan，"They don't know how hard it is to raise a pet dog when you're unemployed，Yan explained．They also don't care about whether the dog they're enjoying is being pushed too hard．"
Yan finally decided to leave his Internet fame behind and focus more on his real life．"The lesson I learned is that，if you can't live up to your followers'expectations，it's better not to be an Internet celebrity，"he said．

29．The underlined phrase"went viral"in Paragraph 2probably meansB．
A．were exposed                    
B．became widely-spread
C．were criticized                   
D．became viruses
30．Why did Yan become famous？A
A．Because his dog became famous．
B．Because he posted two pictures on the Internet．
C．Because he took a strange picture．
D．Because he became an Internet celebrity．
31．How did Yan probably feel at first when he realized he became well-known？D
A．puzzled and annoyed              
B．surprised and tired
C．disappointed and annoyed          
D．excited and joyful
32．What can we infer from what Yan said in the last two paragraphs？B
A．It is hard to raise a pet dog．
B．He isn't fully understood on the Internet．
C．He decided to stop making use of his microblog．
D．Internet celebrities can't satisfy their followers．

2．You must know what BYD stands for？Yes，Build Your Dream．Have you built your dream and spare no effort to achieve it？Here is an inspiring story from http://www．naijamotiveation．com
    Eddie Arcaro dreamed of becoming the world's greatest jockey（賽馬騎師）．But after watching him ride a horse for five minutes，reality reflected a rough contradiction．He was awkward and clumsy，and in his early years in the saddle he couldn't do one thing right．
    In his first 100 races he never even came close to winning．Still，he got right back on and trained again．Even as a schoolboy，Arcaro had set his own track in life．Because he was only a little over five feet tall （1.5 meters） and weighed barely 80 pounds （36kg），the other students picked on him．So he skipped school，hanging out at the local race track where a trainer let him ride horses．
    His father reluctantly agreed to let him pursue a career as a jockey．The trainer had told him so．"Send him back to school，"he said．"He'll never be a rider．"In spite of that，Arcaro was determined not just to ride，but to become the world's greatest jockey．But first someone would have to give him a chance．
    He finally got to ride in a real race．Before it was over，he'd lost his whip and his cap and had almost fallen off the saddle．By the time he finished the race，the other horses were on their way to the stables（馬廄）．He'd come in dead last．Nevertheless，Arcaro went from track to track，looking for any opportunity to ride．
    Finally，a trainer who pitied him took him in and gave him a chance．One hundred losses later，he was still giving him chances．He saw something in this unlucky jockey，something he couldn't define．
    There were many brushes with death and several broken bones．Every time he would return to the saddle．Then Arcaro began to win．In thirty years of riding，he won 4，779 races，becoming the only jockey in history to win the Kentucky Derby five times．By the time he retired in 1962 he was a millionaire and a legend in his own lifetime．
21．The underlined phrase"picked on"in the passage probably meansB

B．made fun of

D．took special care of
22．The trainer who believed in Arcaro gave him chances becauseD
A．Arcaro had shown great talents in horse racing
B．he thought all that Arcaro needed was a bit of luck
C．he had sympathy for Arcaro for his unfortunate experiences
D．he was impressed by the way Arcaro stuck to his dream
23．The key message the author wants to convey through the passage is thatC    A．a(chǎn) man of words and not of deeds is like a garden full of weeds
B．you can't stop the waves，but you can learn how to surf
C．winners in life set goals and follow through on them
D．life consists not in holding good cards，but in playing well those you hold
24．Which of the following would be the most proper title for the passage？A

Do you know sand has been used to draw pictures since ancient times? Today, sandpainting, an interesting art, will be produced to you.

Sandpainting is an art of using the sand to make a fixed or unfixed painting. Maybe we all played fixed sandpainting as we were young. We first painted a simple picture, then we brushed glue(膠水)to the section, and at last we poured colored sand onto the glue in order to make it fixed.

Unfixed sandpaintings have a long cultural history around the world. People poured sand on a surface to make paintings or use some tools to draw pictures in the sand directly. They are often temporary(臨時的). Different people draw sandpaintings to express different meanings: love of nature, admiration for God or love of beauty.

Nowadays, sandpainting becomes a performance art and its popularity has risen. On the stages, sandpainting performers make a series of images(圖像)by drawing lines and figures in the sand with their fingers and hands. The series of images are used to tell a story.

Kseniya Simonova, who is from Ukraine, is one of the greatest sandpainting performers in the world. People call her “The Lady of the Sand”.

Simonova said that she never dreamed she’d become a sand artist, and when she began practicing, she nearly gave it up. But she persevered, caring for a household and her baby by day and training every night. You Are Always Nearby is one of the most famous performances of Simonoova. It is a story about a young couple separated by a war in which the solider is tragically killed, but returns in spirit to watch over his wife and child. This performance makes all audience cry.

Art is everywhere and is not far away from common people. Art of painting is in our life, even in the sand.

1.Which of the following is necessary to make a fixed sandpainting?

A. Glue B. A printed picture

C. Colored paper D. Water

2.What do we know about Simonva?

A. She is the best painter in the world

B. Being a sand artist is her biggest dream

C. She once gave up performing for her family

D. Her performances are popular with people

3.What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about?

A. How sandpainting is becoming popular

B. Why sandpainting is becoming popular

C. How an image is created in the sand

D. What sandpainting tries to express

4.The underlined word “persevered” can be replaced by _______.

A. set off B. gave out

C. held on D. ended up
