     Since my retirement from teaching music in 2001, I have spent a good deal of time painting as an artist. I actually began drawing again in the summer of 1995 when my father died, so perhaps I was trying to recover from the loss of my father, or maybe it was just that it brought back memories of him. In any case, I drew pen and ink animals and landscapes much influenced by Krenkel and St. John for five years.
      For some strange reason, I had been waiting until my retirement to start doing watercolors again, but as soon as I walked out of the school door for the last time I picked up my brushes and rediscovered Andrew Wyeth, who quickly became my favorite artist. I had looked through all the art books I had on my shelves and found his watercolors to be the closest to how I thought good watercolors should look. So I painted landscapes around Minnesota for three years and tried out many other types of painting. However, watercolors remained my first choice, and I think I did my best work there, showing my painting at a number of art exhibitions.
     Art is now together with my piano playing and reading. There is a time for everything in my world, and it is wonderful to have some time doing what I want to do. As Confucius once said, "At seventy I can follow my heart"s desire."
1. What is the text mainly about?
A. Learning to paint in later life.  
B. How to paint watercolors.
C. An artist-turned teacher.          
D. Life after retirement
2. The author started drawing again in 1995 because ________.
A. he hoped to draw a picture of his father
B. he couldn"t stop missing his father
C. he had more time after retirement
D. he liked animals and landscapes
3. We can infer from the text that the author ________.
A. had been taught by Krenkel and St. John
B. painted landscapes in Minnesota for 5 years
C. believed Wyeth to be the best in watercolors
D. started his retirement life at the age of seventy
4. How does the author probably feel about his life as an artist?
A. Very enjoyable.    
B. A bit regretful.
C. Rather busy.        
D. Fairly dull.

saw himself as something else: a Rolls-Royce owner and a(n) 12 . He drove others in his taxi but himself
and his children in his Rolls-Royce. The world looked at his taxi and   13    him a taxi driver. But for him, a
taxi was just something he drove for a living. Rolls-Royce was something he drove for a(n) 14 .

     On a cold winter day, I waited in line to see my hero, Jack Canfield, the author of The Success
Principles
, who was going to deliver a speech on his new book.
     During his talk, Jack  1  his wallet, pulled out a hundred-dollar bill, and said, ""Who wants this?"   2  
shot up in the audience; people leaned forward to see whom Jack would   3  . But I jumped up, ran up
the  4  to the stage, and grabbed the bill. As I was launching myself in the air,   5  raced through my
mind- was I about to be humiliated (羞辱) in front of 800 people? Would they   6   security guards and
take me from the stage?   7   my desire for bold (大胆的)action was louder than any  8  voice. As I got
the bill from his hand, he said, "That"s it! We can"t wait for the   9  to come to us. We must take   10  to
create what we want!""
     After his talk, I   11   to formally meet Jack and boldly asked for his personal e-mail address. Over
the next months, I sent him emails   12   my points of view and dreams with him. He kindly e-mailed back
lots of encouragement. But my life got busy   13  other things. I stopped e-mailing Jack.
     A year later, my dreams had worn away. I thought Jack would inspire me into action, like a giant arrow
that would show me the way.
     I e-mailed him, and then again - but got no   14  . As I sat down at my computer to  15  my e-mails, I
   16   woke up. What was I doing? I was waiting! Now I remembered the crowd, most likely   17   that
hundred-dollar bill, while they sat glued to their chairs.
     Usually we all have a "Jack" for whom we wait - whether it"s a person, a place or a thing. We   18  
believe the gifts of life are just around the corner, and that everything will come in a(n)   19   way. So we
don"t try. We  20  . But as Wayne Gretzky said,"You"ll always miss 100% of the opportunities you don"t
take!" So I stopped waiting and started my writing career.
     Now what are you waiting for?

     Wishing to encourage her young son to make more progress on the piano, a mother took her boy to
a Paderewski concert. After they were seated, the mother spotted a friend in the audience and walked
down the aisle to greet her. Seizing the opportunity to explore the wonders of the concert hall, the little
boy rose and eventually found his way through a door marked "NO ADMITTANCE." When the house
lights dimmed and the concert was about to begin, the mother returned to her seat and discovered that
the child was missing.
    Suddenly, the curtains parted and spotlights focused on the impressive Steinway on stage. To her
horror, the mother saw her little boy sitting at the keyboard, innocently picking out Twinkle, Twinkle
Little Star
.
     At that moment, the great pianist made his entrance, quickly moved to the piano, and whispered in
the boy"s ear, "Don"t quit. Keep playing." Then leaning over, Paderewski reached down with his left hand
and began filling in a bass part. Soon his right arm reached around to the other side of the child and he
added a melody. Together, the old master and the young beginner transformed a frightening situation into
a wonderfully creative experience. The audience was amazed and, as it finished, they cheered.
    That"s the way it is in life. What we can accomplish on our own is hardly noteworthy. We try our best,
but the results aren"t exactly graceful flowing music. But when we put our trust in the hands of a Greater
Power, our life"s work can be truly beautiful. Next time you set out to accomplish great feats, listen
carefully. You can hear the voice of the Master, whispering in your ear, "Don"t quit, and keep playing."
1. The reason why the boy went to the piano was that ________.
A. he was encouraged to explore
B. his mother forced him to have a look
C. he was invited by the pianist
D. he was exploring the concert hall
2. What the famous pianist did at the beginning of the concert showed ________.
A. what a great pianist he was
B. what a skilled pianist he was 
C. what an upright man he was    
D. what a strong man he was
3. What did the author really want to tell us in the last paragraph?
A. Not being interrupted by others is important.
B. Life needs one"s own effort combined with guidance and cooperation.
C. It is necessary for us to keep doing everything.
D. It is important for us to get help from a famous person.
