For hundreds of years, artists have used cartoons to criticize bad rulers or landowners. As early as the 19 th century, people produced and read books of drawings. In many ways, they were similar to modern comics(漫画). They contained stories of naughty children and playful animals. The owl and the elephant were usually wise animals, ready to give advice. The lion and tiger were brave. The fox and wolf were cunning, greedy and dangerous.
A century ago, an American newspaper published the first-color comic strip. It was so popular that sales of the newspaper, Morning Journal, increased quickly. Since then, newspapers throughout the world have included comic strips.
In modern time, comics are popular in China, Japan, the USA and almost everywhere. Not even video games or CD-ROMs have reduced their popularity. Names such as Snoopy, Woodstock and Garfield are well known in dozens of countries. The Peanuts comic strip appears in over 2,000 newspapers and in more than 25 languages.
Perhaps one day, you may like to create your own comic strip and become a millionaire. First, you must think of a good plot. It should be funny, exciting or interesting in some way. It should have plenty of action. Moreover, the language must be realistic and simple. The words should suit the characters in your story.
Furthermore, the characters in your story must be clear to readers. They should be obviously good or bad. In many comic strips—especially those showing crime of adventure—there should also be a hero or heroine. This will attract the reader to keep on reading the story.
1. Which of the following is NOT the name of a cartoon character?
A. Snoopy B. Garfield C. Peanuts D. Woodstock
2. We can know from the first paraphaph that rulers ________.
A. asked the artists to draw cartoons B. probably did not like cartoons about them.
C. often drew cartoons many years ago. D. used cartoons to give people advice.
3. According to the passage, what makes a popular and successful comic strip?
A. Good plot B. suitable language C. clear characters D. All of above
4. The underlined word “plot” is similar in meaning to ______.
A. places B. stories C. events D. characters

I’ll call my father tomorrow which is Father’s Day. Every other 1 I call,Morn answers and Dad quietly picks up the 2 and listens in to our conversation.But 3 Father’s Day, we will talk a little about my job,my family and the weather. Then Dad will say,“Thanks for 4 ,son ,”and hang up.
5 it is almost summer, every year after our Father’s Day talk,I’m left with images of my father and the cold.As a boy I watched him out of the kitchen window 6 our lane(道) of snow with the first snow blower(旋转式清雪机). First,he’d do our walk and then he’d blow the lanes of the shut-ins(不能出门的病人),the single morns,and poorer folks, 7 could not seem to get it together.
I 8 him and learned from him,but I 9 not remember my father and me ever having much of a conversation.Nothing that he 10 shared、vim me in a heart-felt way showed that he may be 11 ,upset or ready to climb the wall.

To love the remote father is to face this paradox(矛盾):to accept his refusal of my 19 for a sunset walk with his worry that I might have died with thousands of others last September; to deeply know, if not accept,that is his way, the way a man of 10 words,snowblower of shut-ins and lonely hearts,can best show a father’s love.
