     The Sistine Chapel Ceiling painted by Michelangelo is one of the most famous artworks of the High
Renaissance. Now the great master's original has been recreated by simple cross-stitching (十字繡).
     It took Michelangelo four years-from 1508 to 1512-to complete the Sistine Chapel Ceiling. Its
cross-stitch reproduction, however, took four more years to copy in all its amazing detail. Joanna
Lopianowski-Roberts, a Canadian needle worker, 44, spent at least one hour every day with the work
on her lap. By committing a total of 3,572 hours, which her husband Aaron Roberts accurately timed
on a stopwatch, her dream became a reality.
     The extraordinary project started in October 1995. During the years that followed, Joanna would
face several challenges that brought her close to giving up completely. As is the method with
cross-stitching, Joanna had to pre-design an outline for each painting of the Sistine Chapel Ceiling and
then fill in all of the 45 sections with color and detail by stitching.
     To get the detail right for each painting, Joanna had to get an individual close-up (特寫(xiě)照片) of each
piece which came from several different sources. She even bought books from Rome to make sure she
had an accurate depiction (描繪) of every part of Michelangelo' s work.
     "It was really hard and I had a lot of false starts," she said. "I even considered stopping. After many
starts and retries, I decided in late 2001 that if I didn't set a commitment to myself of stitching an average
of one hour every day, I'd never finish."
     Joanna's Sistine Chapel, which measures 40 inches by 80 inches, is now kept safely at her home. And despite holding the item close to her heart, she says she would sell it to the right buyer for the right price.
     Her accomplishment has now been documented in Joanna's book In the Footsteps of Michelangelo:  The Sistine Chapel Ceiling in Cross Stitch which acts as a guide for other would-be stitchers to try
themselves.
1. The cross-stitch work was completed in ________.
A. four years
B. six years
C. eight years
D. twelve years
2. How did Joanna' feel about the cross-stitch project?
A. It was easy and interesting.
B. It was very hard work.
C. It went on pretty smoothly.    
D. It was not very successful.
3. According to the passage, Joanna bought books from Rome to ________.
A. make the reproduction correct in every detail
B. improve her painting skill
C. learn cross-stitching from Italians
D. comfort and amuse herself
4. Which of the following is TRUE about Joanna?
A. She never thought of giving up the work.
B. She worked under her husband's instruction.
C. She was writing a book on Michelangelo.
D. She decided to sell her cross-stitch work.

     Paula Radcliffe, chasing(角逐)a third London marathon title(冠軍), says she has become a stronger
person after her terrible experience at the 2004 Athens Games.
     Radcliffe, who failed to complete the Olympic marathon and the 10,000m last August, said: “Athens made me a stronger person and it made me care about criticism(批評(píng)).”
   “In the past I wanted to please everyone, but now I am going to listen even more to the people around me.”She didn't care about criticism made at the weekend by Liz McColgan, who felt Radcliffe should
have rested and let her body recover after her failure in Athens.
   “Liz is someone I look up to but she hasn't spoken to me last year and if she really cared for me, I'm
sure she would have contacted(聯(lián)系)me.”
     Instead Radcliffe won the New York City marathon just 11 weeks after Athens.
   “In New York I wasn't in my best state but I did know I was good enough to win the race.”
     Radcliffe insisted her only goal in Sunday's race would be winning a third title and not chasing world
records.
     However, Radcliffe has not ruled out(排除)in the future chasing her “final” world record time and
questioned sayings that marathon runners have the ability in their career to produce only four or five
world-class times.
    “I don't think that---although I can't put a number on it,” said Radcliffe. “That changes from person to person.”
     Radcliffe is sure she can better her winning London 2003 performance some point in the future.
Following a successful three-month training period in the United States, the 31-year-old will chase a third
title on Sunday after her first victory in 2002 and again 12 months later.
     Radcliffe clocked a time 2:18:56 in her first 42.2-kilometre race three years ago.
     Afterwards she set a “mixed course” mark of 2:17:18 five months later in Chicago before lowering
that to a time of 2:15:25 in the 2003 London event.

1. Radcliffe’s failure in Athens made her ______.  
A. face criticism calmly          
B. rest for five months     
C. love people around her more    
D. develop respect for Liz
2. Which of the following is true according to the passage?  
A. Radcliffe broke the world record in the New York City marathon.  
B. Radcliffe didn’t fully recover before the New York City marathon.  
C. Radcliffe won her first marathon title in the New York City marathon  
D. Radcliffe had a 3-month training before the New York City marathon.
3. By saying “I can’t put a number on it “ , Radcliffe means she’s not sure ______.  
A. if she has the ability to set a new world record  
B. if she can win another race though she has won many times  
C. how many times a marathon runner can set the world record  
D. if she has the ability to produce four or five world-class times
4. According to the text, Radcliffe has won_____ London marathon title(s).  
A. one  
B. two  
C. three  
D. four
5. What can we learn from Radcliffe's story?  
A. Practice makes perfect.  
B. Well begun is half done

    Since 1989, Dave Thomas, who died at age 69, was one of the most recognizable faces on TV.
He appeared in more than 800 commercials (商業(yè)廣告) for the hamburger chain named for his
daughter. "As long as it works," he said in 1991, "I'll continue to do those commercials."
    Even though he was successful, Thomas remained troubled by his childhood. "He still won't let
anyone see his feet, which are out of shape because he never had proper fitting shoes," Wendy said
in 1993. Born to a single mother, he was adopted as a baby by Rex and Auleva Thomas of Kalamazoo
in Michigan. After Auleva died when he was 5, Thomas spent years on the road as Rex traveled around
seeking construction work. "He fed me," Thomas said, "and if I got out of line, he'd beat me."
    Moving out on his own at 15, Thomas worked, first as a waiter, in many restaurants. But he had
something much better in mind. "I thought if I owned a restaurant," he said, "I could eat for free." A
1956 meeting with Harland Sanders led Thomas to a career as the manager of a Kentucky Fried
Chicken restaurant that made him a millionaire in 1968.
    In 1969, after breaking with Sanders, Thomas started the first Wendy's Old Fashioned Hamburgers,
in Columbus, Ohio, which set itself apart by serving made to order burgers. With 6,000 restaurants
worldwide, the chain now makes $ 6 billion a year in sales.
    Although troubled by his own experience with adoption, Thomas, married since 1954 to Lorraine,
66, and with four grown kids besides Wendy, felt it could offer a future for other children. He started
the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption in 1992.
    In 1993, Thomas, who had left school at 15, graduated from Coconut Creek High School in Florida.
He even took Lorraine to the graduation dance party. The kids voted him Most Likely to Succeed.
    "The Dave you saw on TV was the real Dave," says friend Pat Williams. "He wasn't a great actor or
a great speaker. He was just Joe Everybody."
1. What is the article mainly about?
A. The life of Dave Thomas.
B. The dream of Dave Thomas.
C. The schooling of Dave Thomas.
D. The growth of Dave Thomas's business.
2.What do we know about his childhood?
A. He lived a poor life.
B. He had caring parents.
C.He stayed in one place.
D.He didn't go to school.
3. Choose the right time order of the following events in Thomas's life.
a. graduated from high schoolb. started his own business
c. became a millionaire d. started a foundation
e. met Harland Sanders

A. e,b,c,d,a,
B. a,e,c,b,d,

    Almost no young people today know who the cartoon character Oswald the Rabbit is,
but they certainly recognize his successor, Bugs Bunny. Oswald, Bugs, and hundreds of other
characters were created by Walt Disney, perhaps the most famous cartoonist in history.
    Born in Chicago in 1901, Walt Disney always wanted to be an artist. After returning from
World War I, in which he drove an ambulance, Disney worked as a commercial artist. He
enjoyed drawing cartoons more than anything else, and decided to try his hand at a technology
that was new at the time, moving pictures.
   In the 1920's, he produced several films where he made cartoon characters move as if by
magic. The technique Disney used was painstaking. He made hundreds or even thousands of
repeated drawings of the same character. In each drawing, the character was changed just a
bit. A film was taken of the series of drawings, and when it was shown, the characters appeared
to move. The process, called animation, is still used today, although computers have made the
process much easier.
     In 1928, Disney created his most famous character, Mortimer Mouse, who we know today
as Mickey. The mouse starred in a cartoon called Steamboat Willie, which was unusual because
it involved the use of a sound track. Within the next few years, Disney invented many of his other
characters.
    The list of Disney's animation successes is long and memorable. It includes Pinocchio, Dumbo,
Bambi, Cinderella, and Peter Pan. Perhaps his most remarkable animated film is Snow White and
the Seven Dwarfs. Created in 1937, it was an immediate success. Today, more than fifty years later,
it is still one of the most popular films for children.
1. What is one of the chief differences between animation today and in Walt Disney's early years?
A. More people like animated movies.  
B. Fewer people like animated movies.
C. Computers have made the job easier.
D. Computers have made the job harder.
2. Which of these words best describes Walt Disney?
A. Creative.    
B. Athletic.
C. Exciting.      
D. Quiet.
3. What makes the film Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs so remarkable?
A. It was a little success when created.
B. It took more than a year to make it.
C. It was made at a time when there were no computers.
D. It has remained popular for more than fifty years.
4. The author of this passage would probably agree that ______.
A. Oswald the Rabbit is well-known today
B. Walt Disney is a remarkable person
C. animation is an easy technique
D. cartoons move by magic
5. What does the underlined word "painstaking" (in Paragraph 3) probably mean?
A. Something that hurts because it involves hard work.
B. Taking a long time and involving much hard work.
C. Requiring a lot of effort, like running a marathon.
D. Requiring many fine tools, such as pens and pencils.
6. The secret of animation is to _______.
A. make drawings that are exactly the same, then film them
B. choose names for characters that make people remember them
C. combine music, voices, and sound effects with pictures
D. make a film of many drawings that change just a little

      As a boy, Sanders was much influenced(影響) by books about the sea, but by the age of
fifteen he had decided to become a doctor rather than a sailor. His father was a doctor. So he
was often with the doctors and got along very well with them. When he was fourteen, he was
already hanging around the hospital where he was supposed to be helping to clean the medicine
bottles, but was actually trying to listen to the doctors' conversations with patients in the next room.
      During the war Sanders served in the army as a surgeon(外科醫(yī)生). "That was the happiest
