    Van Gogh spent his early adult life working for a firm of art dealers. After a brief period as a teacher, he became a missionary (传教士) in a very poor mining region. He did not begin his career as an artist until 1880; however, during the last ten years of his life, he produced more than 2,000 pieces, including around 900 paintings and 1,100 drawing and sketched (素描).

    【题目】阅读理解
    Finding summer jobs for teenagers has not always been easy, but now you no longer have to worry about what your kids can do to earn their own money. Recently I found some different sites online that offer information about what kids can do. Below issome of that information, along with questions to think about to help you come upwith your own ideas.
    Ideas for summer work:
    ●Parks and Recreation Programs.
    ●Babysitting (当临时保姆) during the day of school.
    ●Working part-time at a day care for the summer.
    ●Car washing.
    ●Working at local vegetable stands.
    The easiest way for you to find ways for your child to make money is to think about others' inconveniences (不方便). Think of things you need done, or would like to have done, and what you would consider paying for these things to get done. Once you have some ideas, you can sit down with your children and talk to them aboutwhat they would be interested in doing. Then once you have an idea of what theywant to do you can help them come up with fair prices.
    Preferably you would want to only have your child working with people you know and trust, or in the least bit you could have your child pick a partner. That way with each of them carrying cell phones, even those without service can call 911, they will be much safer.

    【题目】根据短文理解，选择正确答案。
    For many people around the world, a subway journey means speeding from one dull station to the next, surrounded by too many uncomfortable, impatient people. But on the Moscow Metro, taking the subway is like walking through a national heritage site. Depending on where you get off, you'll receive a brief course in architectural movements and face colorful glass windows, marble(大理石) columns, gilded(鎏金的) mosaics and painted scenes from Russian history.
    “These extraordinarily beautiful places are unlike any metro station I've ever seen, “says Vancouver-based photographer David Burdeny.
    When Burdeny, who himself has a master's degree in architecture, first found out about Moscow's metro stations, he was struck by the work of art. In all, he has photographed 20 of the most beautiful stations.
    Burdeny had originally planned to focus on Russian stations more generally, taking photos of examples in both St. Petersburg and Moscow.
    “But when I saw the stations in Moscow, they just completely blew away the St. Petersburg ones,” he says.
    Shooting in the subway sounds simple, but it is not without challenges. For one thing, Burdeny had to figure out a way to access them between 00:30 a.m. and 5:30 a.m., when the stations were closed.
    In the end, he settled on Arbatskaya Metro Station, whose vaulted(拱状的) arches he found the most beautiful. But it also represented a challenge he was not sure if he was able to overcome: conveying the hugeness of the spaces. The Arbatskaya platform, for example, stretches 820 feet.
    “Some of the arches are quite long,” he says. “When you enter them, they're just so completely grand.”
    （1）We can learn from the text that David Burdeny.
    A.is a world-famous architect
    B.took photos of Moscow subway stations
    C.took the subway to and from work
    D.is studying Russian history
    （2）What Burdeny found challenging was .
    A.when to take photos of Moscow subway stations
    B.Whether to work in St. Petersburg or Moscow
    C.where to get off to study the Moscow metro system
    D.how to photograph the long arches at Arbatskaya Metro Station
    （3）What does the underlined word “Shooting” mean in Paragraph 6?
    A.Firing bullets from a gun
    B.Making movies
    C.Taking photographs
    D.Throwing the ball at the basket.
