But Guido Daniele creates fantastic paintings of birds, elephants, tigers, and giraffes by painting on skin. Born in Soverato, Italy, Guido Daniele has been called “Hand Gogh” (after artist Vincent van Gogh) since he began creating works of art on peoples hands in 1990. Painting on the hands can be a challenge because, unlike canvas, the skin moves when rubbed. Danieles models must remain perfectly still for hours as he paints. He often uses his daughter and his son as his “canvases”.Before he can begin to create his “manimals” (the artists name for his hand animals), Daniele studies photographs of the animal that he will be painting in order to be able to understand its character and give it life. “Next,” he says, “I look at the hand from different perspectives(视角), and I begin to imagine what is the best way to position the hand for me to paint the animal.” He also studies the skin of the model, preferring it to have little hair and few blemishes(瑕疵).Daniele starts by drawing on the models hand with a pencil. He next paints the skin using watercolors made specifically for body art. The eyes of Danieles painted animals look amazingly real, and they are the most difficult part to paint.Paintings on hands must eventually be washed away. Guido Daniele says that hes gotten used to this part and that he doesnt really mind seeing his work washed down the drain(排水沟). “Tomorrow, I will paint the next one. The important thing is to take many good photographs before washing the hand!”5. Danieles paintings are mainly about .A. sceneryB. plantsC. storiesD. animals6. In Paragraph 3 the author mainly tells us .A. what Daniele needs to do before paintingB. why Daniele chooses to paint “manimals”C. how Daniele develops his own style of paintingD. how Daniele paints on the skin of his models7. How does Daiele feel about the fact that his paintings must be washed away?A. He feels disappointed at this.B. He cares little about this.C. He is satisfied to see this.D. He in fact cant accept this.8. What do we learn about Daniele from the passage?A. His real name is Hand Gogh.B. His works are mainly drawn with pencils.C. He is an artist who paints on hands.D. He often asks his wife to be his model.CTreesareusefultomaninthreeimportantways:theygivehimwoodandotherusefulthings,theygivehimcoolplaces,andtheyhelptostopdroughtandflood.Unluckily,inmanypartsoftheworld,manhasnotfoundthatthethirdofthesepointsisthemostimportant.Manwantstomakemoneyfromtrees,sohehascutthemdowninlargenumbers,onlytofindthatwithoutthemhehaslostthebestfriendshehad.Andalso,heisusuallytoocarelesstoplantandlookafternewtrees.Sotheforestsslowlydisappear.Thisdoesnotonlymeanthatmanwillhavefewertrees.Theresultsareevenworse:forwheretherearetrees,theirrootsbreakupsoil-maketherainin-andalsobindthesoil,thusstoppingitfrombeingwashedawayeasily;butwheretherearenotrees,therainfallsonhardgroundandflowsaway,causingfloodsandcarryingawaytherichtop-soil.Whenallthetop-soilisgone,nothingisleftbutuselessdesert.9.Themostimportantpointsoftreestomanis_.A. theyhelphimtomakemoney B. theygivehimcoolC. theygivehimwoodandotherthings D. theyhelphimtostopdroughtandfloods10.Inmanyplacesforestsslowlydisappearbecause_.A. manytreeshavebeencutdownbyman B. newtreesarenotwelllookedafterC. manhasnotpaidenoughattentiontoplantingtreesD. alltheabove11.Landbeesdesertafteralltreesarecutdownbecause_.

In fact, a group of Colorado teens want to help others by starting a revolution where friendships matter.Eight years ago, Brad Thomas, a language arts teacher at Grand Junctions Central High School, began supporting The Revolution Group, a loosely organized, extracurricular(课外的)group with the slogan “Loving others one person at a time, forever.”“We do things in small and big ways to love people,” Thomas says. “That might be putting your hand on some bodys shoulder if they are having a bad day, smiling at somebody in the hall who looks unhappy, opening a door for somebody, picking up somebodys books.”Seven months ago, students at the higb school started to go to the munity(社区), surrounding Kimwood Park, and area of nearby Clifton, Colo, sometimes referred to as “Little Beirut” because of the neighborhoods violent crime.Each Wednesday, The Revolution Group students pack donated food for a “backpack program,” distributing(分配)weekend food to nearly 700 children in need. On Sundays, students and other volunteers may bag more donated food and set up for a meal for those in the area. Then breaking up into groups, the students help distribute the remaining donations throughout the Clifton neighborhood, visiting and in viting the neighbors to a munity meal in Kimwood Park. After the meal, the students and Clifton children play games or do other interesting things.Shylo Gallegos, an 18 year-old senior, says he wishes he had bee one of its members earlier.“If students in the first year went to volunteer like this, our school would be a lot different,” Shylo Gallegos says. And, he says, besides giving him a way to help others, The Revolution Group has made him feel better about his own life: He says he used to be the kid who sat in the back of the class and didnt have many friends and didnt really like anybody.“When I really became part of The Revolution Group, it got me out of my shell,” he says.12. How do volunteers in The Revolution Group help others?A. By organizing daily popularity contests.B. By taking part in extracurricular activities.C. By starting a revolution at school.D. By doing little things in daily life.13.
