She once said: "When people ask me if writing has been a hard or easy road I always answer with the famous saying, "the end is nothing; the road is all.'” That is what I mean when I say writing has been a pleasure. I have never faced the type-writer (打字機) with the thought that one more task had to be done."
Like most writers, Willa Cather did not write books for the money that they brought her, but rather for the pleasure that came in their writing. Her works were, like her, simple and full of the vigor (活力) of her days in Nebraska, where she grew from childhood to young womanhood and where she developed a deep love for the treeless land of the Great Plains with its wild flowers, wheat fields and rivers.
"It's a rather strange thing about the flat country," she wrote later. "It takes hold of you, or it leaves you perfectly cold. A great many people find it very dull; they like a church tower, an old factory, a waterfall country all made to look like a German, Christmas card... But when I come to the open plains, something happens. I'm home. I breathe differently."
1.What did Cather mean by "the end is nothing; the road is all"?
A. Writing is the only path to success.
B. I feel happy when I finish writing a book.
C. I enjoy writing whether it is hard or easy.
D. Writing itself, not its result, is important.
2.What was the place like where Cather grew up?
A. It was cold, plain and without a church.
B. It was a colorful world of wild flowers.
C. It was like a German Christmas card
D. It was vast, open, flat and wild.
3.When she said "It takes hold of you, or it leaves you perfectly cold", Willa Gather meant ______.
A. you either love the place or hate it
B. you decide either to stay or to leave
C. some find the place warm; others find it cold
D. some find the place peaceful; others find it wild
4.What happens when Cather comes to the open plains?
A. She breathes differently from others:
B. She wants to make the place her home.

Just like in school, there are lessons you will learn in Latin dance. These lessons are not only about the dance itself. It’s also important to learn about manners (禮節(jié)) to get along well with other dancers.
What are some of the manners you should know about in Latin dance?
1. Sit out if the dance floor is overcrowded.
There are times when there are too many people on the dance floor. When the dance floor is overcrowded, people can run into each other, causing people to get angry. If you are polite, you will sit out in order to give way to other dancers. This way, they can perform with enjoyment.
2. Do not get in the way of other dancers.
There may be times when you need to share one dance floor. The best way to do it is to start in a place not too close to the other dancers. When you see that they need to move into your space, allow them some more space to complete their performance. Once they are finished, you will have the space to yourself and the people next to you will make space for you.
3. The dance floor is for dancing.
In the dance hall, do not use the dance floor to talk to your friends, discuss, or disagree about something. Dance floors are not sitting areas where you can do just anything. You will bother other dancers on the dance floor.
4. Avoid stopping other dancers.
You might need to step onto the dance floor while other dancers are performing. If you need to do this, walk around the dancers to avoid stopping them. This is one way of showing respect to your friends. You would not want them to stop you if you were the one dancing, so do not do it to them.
If all dancers would take these Latin dance manners to heart, then people would get along better on the dance floor.
1.What should you do if there are too many dancers on the dance floor?
________________________________________________________________________
2.What should you do when other dancers move into your space on the dance floor?
________________________________________________________________________
3.What should you do to avoid stopping other dancers when dancing on the same dance floor?
________________________________________________________________________
4.What is the passage mainly about?
________________________________________________________________________

A hobby is an investment of time. It also can be an investment of money and commitment. Many people choose to develop more than one type of hobby. 1. When it comes to choosing the hobby, consider the following factors.
Hobbies are usually an activity of some sort that brings out a certain skill that you have. When you have a talent like painting or woodworking, it can be easy to determine which hobby suits your skill. 2. Skill can be developed and challenged as you go along.
