8.He's an old cobbler(修鞋匠)with a shop in the Marais,a historic area in Paris.When I took him my shoes,he at first told me:"I haven't time.Take them to the other fellow on the main street; he'll fix them for you right away."
But I'd had my eye on his shop for a long time.Just looking at his bench loaded with tools and pieces of leather,I knew he was a skilled craftsman(手藝人)."No,"I replied,"the other fellow can't do it well."
"The other fellow"was one of those shopkeepers who fix shoes and make keys"while-U-wait"-without knowing much about mending shoes or making keys.They work carelessly,and when they have finished sewing back a sandal strap(鞋帶)you might as well just throw away the pair.
The man saw I wouldn't give in,and he smiled.He wiped his hands on his blue apron(圍裙),looked at my shoes,had me write my name on one shoe with a piece of chalk and said,"Come back in a week."
I was about to leave when he took a pair of soft leather boots off a shelf.
"See what I can do?"he said with pride."Only three of us in Paris can do this kind of work…"
When I got back out into the street,the world seemed brand-new to me.He was something out of an ancient legend,this old craftsman with his way of speaking familiarly,his very strange,dusty felt hat,his funny accent from who-knows-where and,above all,his pride in his craft.
There are times when nothing is important but the bottom line,when you can do things any old way as long as it"pays",when,in short,people look on work as a path to ever-increasing consumption(消費)rather than a way to realize their own abilities.In such a period it is a rare comfort to find a cobbler who gets his greatest satisfaction from pride in a job well done.

24.Which of the following is true about the old cobbler?D
A.He was equipped with the best repairing tools.
B.He was the only cobbler in the Marais.
C.He was a native Parisian.
D.He was proud of his skills.
25.The sentence"He was something out of an ancient legend."( paragraph 7 ) implies thatD.
A.the man was very strange
B.it was difficult to communicate with this man
C.the man was too old
D.nowadays you can hardly find anyone like him
26.According to the author,many people work just toC.
A.realize their abilities
B.gain respect
C.make money
D.gain happiness
27.This story wants to tell us thatC.
A.craftsmen make a lot of money
B.people are born equal
C.whatever you do,do it well
D.craftsmen need self-respect.

3.A Dutch artist and designer has come up with a device which he hopes will get rid of pollutants from Beijing's smog skies,creating clean air for the city's mask-wearing people.An electromagnetic (電磁)field will pull particles(微粒) in the smog to the ground where they can be easily cleaned."
It's like when you have a balloon which has static(靜電) and your hair goes toward it.Same with the smog,"says artist Daan Roosegaarde.
His studio has reached an agreement with the Beijing government to test the technology in one of tile capital's parks.
With its skies regularly covered by dirty gray smog,Beijing this week announced a series of emergency measures to handle the problem.
Roosegarde says an indoor model device has already proven it works and is confident that the results-with the help of a team of scientists and engineers-can be replicated outside.
"Beijing is quite a good place because the smog in Beijing is quite low.It lies in a valley so there's not so much wind.It's a good environment to explore this kind of thing."
"We'll be able to purify the air and the challenge is to get the top of the smog so you can see the sun again."
Roosegaarde acknowledges that projects like this are a way of drawing attention to the problem,rather than a practical solution to Beijing's awful air pollution.
"This is not the real answer for smog.The real answer has to do with clean cars,different industry and different lifestyles."
However,he hopes the project will make a"fundamental statement"by allowing the city's people to realize the difference between breathing clean and smog-filled air.

25.The device works byB.
A.helping keep the particles out with more masks
B.pulling pollutants to the ground with an electromagnetic field
C.a(chǎn)bsorbing hair with a balloon with static
D.creating clean air and let it out into the sky
26.According to the passage,C.
A.the Beijing government has agreed to use the technology in Beijing
B.they have provn the results of the device both indoors and outdoors
C.the results of the air-cleaning device can be expectable
D.the Beijing governmenthas never done anything to handle the air pollution
27.What does Roosegaarde really mean by saying"Beijing is quite a good place…"?C
A.The air pollution in Beijing is not quite serious.
B.The weather in Beijing is good for foreigners to live in.
C.Beijing is quite fit for using the air-cleaning device.
D.It is easy to get the top of the smog in Beijing.
28.Roosegaarde appeals to people in Beijing toA.
A.pay attention to air pollution and solve the problem finally
B.invent more devices to clean the smog in Beijing
C.drive modern cars and try different lifestyles
D.realize how serious the pollution they're facing is.
