【题目】 The candles we make at Wax Buffalo are imperfect-"beautifully imperfect',as we like to say. one is unique, hand-poured (手工灌注的)with pure soy wax (大豆蜡). It's a small business 1 started, and everyone who enjoy, working here comes into the studio in free time, so they can be home with their family, cats, dogs at prime times.
I first fell in love with candles on visits to my grandmother Feme's house in Lincoln. At night, candlelight flashed off the book-lined walls. During the day, she'd take me to a cafe in the historic Haymarket district and we'd drink tea out of china cups.
I poured my first candle at the age of 14, using the candle-making tool that Feme had given me. I gave the finished product to my grandmother for Christmas. She loved that candle I'd made for her. That first candle was imperfect. Beautifully imperfect
Then in 2014. life took a dark turn for my grandmother. The breast cancer took away her life. I found myself thinking about the candle-making tool she had given me as a 14-year-old kid and the joy it had brought me. I began pouring candles again, making them for friends. Because of kids' health. I'd become especially interested in natural products. I used locally sourced soy wax. Was there a way I could make candles for people beyond my group of friends? And so, Christmas of that year, Wax Buffalo was launched. Little by little, the business grew as we found more people who wanted our candles. Now our candles are sold in more than 60 shops across the country.
Isn't life wonderful? Indeed, it is beautifully imperfect. But it hasn't turned out at all how I'd have predicted. I think that's what Ferne wanted me to understand. To trust the light of hope, to enjoy fun in its light, to know that it can transform a person from within.

【题目】 Talent shows are common on Chinese television, but instead of casting starry-eyed(幻想的) hopefuls, a new series pairs young famous actors with big-name veterans who are ready to teach them a lesson.
The Birth of Performer first appeared on Zhejiang Satellite TV in October and has already received 330 million online views for just its first two episodes. The show has caused debate on social media about the acting skills of some stars.
A flood of investment in China’s TV and film industry has driven up paychecks for popular young attractive persons and soap opera sweethearts, but some stars have been slammed by critics and the public for lacking professionalism and acting skills.
"People wonder why some actors don’t take acting seriously with more and more money pouring in,"Wu Tong wrote. However, he said that he had met many devoted young actors through the show, whose A-list cast of mentors(导师) includes Zhang Ziyi, who starred in the Oscar-winning kung fu epic Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon; and comedy queen Song Dandan.
One highlight from the first episode saw Zhang appear to become angry when she disagreed with her fellow judge-mentor Liu Ye over the performance of contestant Zheng Shuang.
"Do you know what acting is?"Zhang questioned Liu. In response, Liu slammed his phone on the table — and then his shoe.
As the audience and contestants were left stunned(震惊的), Zhang turned to Liu and warmly said, "Give me a hug."The two mentors explained that their quarrel was intended to show how to act out a scene of conflict — but later, online commentators speculated(推测) that Zhang was concealing her genuine irritation.
【1】What can we learn about The Birth of Performer according to Paragraph 2?
A.Only the young love it.B.It proves popular.
C.The performers are excellent.D.There are fewer stars present.
【2】What does the underlined word "slammed"in Paragraph 3 mean?
A.Praised.B.Employed.
C.Criticized.D.Applied.
【3】By mentioning Zhang Ziyi, Wu Tong wants to show _______.
A.she is famous worldwide
B.she earned a lot of money
C.she is devoted to performance
D.she has drawn public attention
【4】How did Liu react when Zhang Ziyi questioned Zheng Shuang’s performance?
A.He consulted with her patiently.
B.He behaved rather rudely.
C.He had words with her.
D.He fought against her.
