【題目】One of my first memories as a child in the 1950s was a discussion I had with my brother in our tiny bedroom in the family house in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania.

We had heard in school about a planet called Pluto. It was the farthest, coldest, and darkest thing a child could imagine. We guessed how long it would take to die if we stood on the surface of such a frozen place wearing only the clothes we had on. We tried to figure out how much colder Pluto was than Antarctica, or than the coldest day we had ever experienced in Pennsylvania.

Pluto, which famously was downgraded from a “major planet” to a “dwarf planet”(矮星) in 2006, captured our imagination because it was a mystery that could complete our picture of what it was like at the most remote corners of our solar system

Pluto’s underdog discovery story is part of what makes it so attractive. Clyde Tombaugh was a Kansas farm boy who built telescopes out of spare auto parts, old farm equipment and self-ground lenses. As an assistant at Lowell Observatory in Flagstaff, Arizona, Tombaugh’s task was to search millions of stars for a moving point of light, a planet that the observatory’s founder thought existed beyond the orbit of Neptune. On February 18, 1930, Tombaugh found it. Pluto was the first planet discovered by an American, and represented a moment of light in the midst of the Great Depression’s dark encroachment(入侵).

Pluto is much more than something that is not a planet. It’s a reminder that there are many worlds out there beyond our own and that the sky isn’t the limit at all. We don’t know what kinds of fantastic variations on a theme nature is capable of making until we get there to look.

【1】Why did Pluto become famous in 2006 according to the passage?

A. Because it lost its major planet status

B. Because it disappeared in the sky

C. Because it was discovered by an American

D. Because it was proved to be the coldest planet in the universe

【2】What can be a suitable title for the text?

A. An American Scientist: Clyde Tombaugh

B. Pluto was First Discovered by a Boy

C. Pluto’s Strange Romance

D. The Days I Spent with My Brother in Pennsylvania

【3】What can we learn from the fourth paragraph?

A. Clyde Tombaugh discovered the darkness in the Great Depression

B. Pluto was the only planet that was discovered by Clyde Tombaugh

C. Clyde Tombaugh’s job was to build telescopes for Lowell Observatory

D. Clyde Tombaugh’s telescopes used for searching stars were very simple

【題目】Writers used to approach publishers to have their work read by the public. Now they can simply post them and find millions of instant audience.

After breaking up with her boyfriend, Bao Jingjing started “making up” a love story simply to distract (轉移) her attention. Her story of a girl suffering the pain like hers progressed quickly, attracting many readers.

When Bao stopped writing as she reunited with her boyfriend, she was urged to continue, as readers wanted to know what happened next. Bao finished it soon. It became so popular that it was turned into a best-seller. To cap it all off, Bao’s novel was later adapted into a successful movie.

Bao’s story is only one of many Internet novels that have landed deals for physical books, TV shows and films. Unlike traditional writers who buried themselves in their books for years, some young writers like Bao have got readers rapidly online and find overnight success.

Bao admits her success was unexpected. She still remembers how surprised her parents were when she proudly gave them her copyright earnings. Online literature forums are platforms for grassroots writers to succeed.

In recent years, Zhang Wei, known as “Tangjiasanshao”, has earned 177 million yuan by his fingers though working as an author was beyond his dreams. He topped the list of wealthiest Chinese Internet novelists twice and was the only online writer to be listed on the 2014 Forbes “Chinese Celebrity List”.

He admits that he is one of the few writers at the top of the pyramid while most online writers remain unknown. However, he urged that his success can be achieved by others, as long as “they write hard enough”.

【1】According to the passage, we know that ________.

A. Bao Jingjing’s parents didn’t want her to be a writer

B. Bao Jingjing didn’t really expect her success overnight

C. Bao Jingjing didn’t finish her first online love story

D. Bao Jingjing’s first online story was turned into a TV show

【2】The underlined words “to cap it all off” in Paragraph 3 probably means ________.

A. in turnB. in conclusionC. in timeD. in addition

【3】The author mentioned Zhang Wei’s example mainly to ________.

A. introduce another online writer to the readers

B. show the example of another online writer’s success

C. encourage readers to become online writers

D. express his admiration for online writer Zhang Wei

【4】What can we infer from what Zhang Wei says in the last paragraph?

A. Few words, many deeds.

B. First try, and then trust.

C. Harm set, harm get.

D. No pains, no gains.
