After years of dreaming, I decided it was finally time to write a book. For 10 years I wrote, 36 four middle-grade novels and six picture books almost only to editors. This was 37 in the snail-mail age. Remember the 38 you experienced as a child waiting for birthday presents to arrive in the mail? That was me for the better part of a decade. In Spring 2009, at the last minute, I decided to hand in a middle-grade historical novel-in-verse to a 39 at a local writing conference. I knew in my heart that it was my 40 work, but I wasnt sure how it would be 41 alongside pieces meant for the adult market. But thenI won. My prize 42 a one-on-one interview with an editor who, after 43 my manuscript, asked, “Why dont you have a(n) 44 yet?” Not long after that, I 45 with my first agent. Then in 2013, after parting with my first agent, I was again faced with the 46 for representation. This time I submitted to three agencies and got two 47 . Over the span of 20 years, Ive got 18 completed manuscripts and was 48 almost 350 times. It took me 14 years to see my first book 49 the shelf. You could look at these numbers and get pretty 50 . Ican look at these numbers and feel the same. I know plenty of people with a 51 apprenticeship (学徒期). I have friends who have been more 52 . All sorts of authors I 53 with in 2012 have published far more than I have. But heres the 54 thing Ive learned in the last 20 years: My process is mine. My journey is mine. Each book finds its way on its own.The writing life is a long-term journey. There is no right way. There is no 55 fix. There is no easy road. There is a lot of frustration and disappointment, but there is joy and satisfaction, too.36. A. submittingB. lendingC. keepingD. presenting37. A. soonB. backC. alreadyD. later38.

Someone suggested “googolplex”one of the largest describable numbers. Page shortened it to “googol.” When he later checked for the availability of the domain name, he made a mistake and typed in “google” instead. But he liked the name and registered it for himself and co-founder Sergey Brin.This luxury car maker combined elements from the Ford and Oldsmobile companies when it was started in 1902 and later became known for its innovation and high quality. The company was named for the French explorer Antoine Laumet de la Mothe Cadillac, who founded the city of Detroit in 1701.Company co-founder Gordon Bowker has said that while brainstorming names, someone brought out a map that featured the old mining town of Starbo. That may have led him to think of Starbuck, the first mate in Herman Melvilles famous novel, Moby Dick. Not only the company name but also the origin of its logo has aroused great curiosity.The inventor of Rolex, Hans Wilsdorf, was looking to make an elegant, yet precise, wristwatch. He wanted a name that was easy to say, worked in different languages, and looked good on the watches. He settled on Rolex in 1908.56. Which company name has a close relationship with literature? A. Google.B. Cadillac.C. Starbucks.D. Rolex.57. Which of the following statements is True?A. Google was adopted because “googol” was not available then. B. Cadillac was named after the founding father of the company. C. Starbucks was used due to the co-founders love for his town. D. Hans Wilsdorf intended Rolex to be universally accepted.BIf you could travel back in time five centuries, youd encounter a freshly painted “Mona Lisa” in Renaissance Europe and cooler temperatures across the Northern Hemisphere. This was a world in the midst of the Little Ice Age and a period of vast European exploration now known as the Age of Discovery.But what if we could look 500 years into the future and glimpse the Earth of the 26th century? Would the world seem as different to us as the 21st century would have seemed to residents of the 16th century? For starters, what will the weather be like?Depending on whom you ask, the 26th century will either be a little chilly or extremely hot. Some solar output models suggest that by the 2500s, Earths climate will have cooled back down to near Little Ice Age conditions. Other studies predict that ongoing climate change and fossil fuel use will leave much of the planet too hot for human life by 2300. Some experts date the beginning of human climate change back to the Industrial Revolution in the 1800s, others to slash-and-burn agricultural practices in prehistoric times. Either way, tool-wielding humans alter their environmentand our 26th century tools might be quite impressive indeed.Theoretical physicist and futurist Michio Kaku predicts that in a mere 100 years, humanity will make the leap from a type zero civilization to a type I civilization on the Kardashev Scale. In other words, well become a species that can use the entire sum of a planets energy, mastering clean energy technologies such as fusion and solar power. Furthermore, theyll be able to handle planetary energy in order to control global climate.Technology has improved significantly since the 1500s, and this pace will likely continue in the centuries to come. Physicist Stephen Hawking proposes that by the year 2600, this growth would see 10 new theoretical physics papers published every 10 seconds. If Moores Law holds true and both computer speed and complexity double every 18 months, then some of these studies may be the work of highly intelligent machines.What other technologies will shape the world of the 26th century? Futurist and author Adrian Berry believes the average human life span will reach 140 years and that the digital storage of human personalities will enable a computerized state of living forever. Humans will farm the oceans, travel in starships and reside in both lunar and Martian colonies while robots explore the outer cosmos.58. Why does the author mention the Little Ice Age in the first paragraph?A. To show the severity of the current global warming. B. To stress the close connection with the current climate. C. To provide contrast to the prediction of future climate. D. To illustrate the importance of protecting the environment. 59. The prediction that Earth will cool down is based on _. A. changes in solar activityB. ongoing climate changeC. previous general assumptionsD. current consumption of fossil fuel60. What effect will the 26th century technologies have on human beings?A. Humans will suffer from severe global warming.B. Cyber technology helps human personalities survive.C. Humans neednt work with the application of robots.D. Highly intelligent machines will replace humans.CHow would you describe your style? Formal? Classical? Casual? Smart? First of all, what is style? Lets hear a few words of wisdom from the wise. “Style is knowing who you are and what you want to say,” (Gore Vidal); “Style is an expression of individualism mixed with charm,” (John Fairchild); “Style is the perfection of a point of view,” (Robert Eberhart); “Style is a simple way of saying complicated things,” (Jean Cocteau); “Style is the dress of thoughts,” (Lord Chesterfield). So, now you know what style is, youll need to buy some clothes. But where? In the UK, you can get really cheap, stylish, second-hand clothes at charity shops. Theyre great if you want exclusive labels but dont want to pay the price. The only difficulty is discovering where the really good bargains are. But dont worry, Leila Gray can help you here. Shes the proud owner of a vintage Hardy Amies coat, picked up at a charity shop for 20a good deal when you realize it cost more than 800 new. “You have to go to the richer areas of a city,” she says. “Thats where all the labels are. It can take a bit of hunting around, but that is half the fun, and theres a lot of buried treasure just waiting to be discovered.”So, now you know where to buy your new, stylish clothes, how do you acquire your style? Experts say that mixing and matching from charity shops can help you find your own stylesomething thats really you. Thats what Scottish musician Momus did. “My fashion tip is this,” he says, “look at yourself with the eye of a graphic designer. If you cant be attractive, aim for interesting or original.” Momus unique style could even make him happier, too. As psychologist Marilyn Elias explains, the happiest people “judge themselves by their own yardsticks, never against what others do or have”.Shoichi Aoki, the founder of Japanese street style magazine FRUiTS, agrees. “I think real fashion is what people wear on the streets, the clothes that they wear, the way that they wear them,” he says. “What you see in fashion magazines and on models has been styled and its more commercial.” He says that his inspiration for FRUiTS came from people combining traditional Japanese clothing such as the kimono and “geta” (Japanese wooden clogs) with Western fashion. “This really caught my eye,” Aoki adds. These styles may seem wild, but Aokis idea is not: be bold, be creative and find something that suits you.Maybe its time to create your own look. There are many online guides to help you. Perhaps the best advice comes from a website called wikiHow, “If you see something you like,” it says, “feel free to copy, but dont make yourself a clone. mix it up and make it yours.” Think about it! 61. What should you first do to choose the style that best suits you?A. Follow the images of the wise people. B. Go for whatever is fashionable.C. Simplify complicated expressions. D. Figure out what a true style is. 62. What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. Getting clothes of leading brands.B. Buying clothes at rather low prices. C. Searching for really good bargains.D. Starting a charity shop selling clothes. 63. What is the focus of Shoichi Aoki and his magazine FRUiTS?A. Commercialization of fashion magazines.B. Expression of something personal and creative.C. Designing fashionable wear for men in the street.D. Promoting Japanese traditional clothing worldwide.64. What is probably the best title for the passage?A. How to find the style that suits youB. Where to pick up a bargainC. What to wear to develop your styleD. Whom to model to be popularDJ.K. Rowling is the author of the most successful book series in history, but her attempt to take on a new career as a screenwriter hasnt been as smooth as she may have thought it would be. The sequel (续篇), “Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald”, shows that even the most successful author in the world is in need of checks and balances when making the transition to cinema. Following the sale of half a billion copies of the Harry Potter series, Rowling is working hard to extend and enrich the mythology she created around the child wizard. In contrast to the eight Harry Potter movies, which were base
