Perhaps it was something served in the 18th century and then forgotten.But great art is timeless.Lets use modern science to recover the ingredients，flavors and techniques of past ages，and reconstruct great dishes.(Jill Neimark，2，700 words)ArtThe feeling of finishingWhen the artist stops working on a painting，the painting is finished.The artist doesnt intend to stop working if the painting is unfinished.However，“Things can get in the way: an artists attention wanders，a better idea appears，and the money just runs out.Sometimes history interferes(干涉)The enemy is at the door and the work must be abandoned.” (Marion Coutts，870 words)For more articles which are worth reading this week，visit http：/thebrowser.con/【语篇解读】本文简单介绍了一周内网站里有关文化和艺术话题方面值得一读的文章。1What can we know about Pixars films?AThe

you teach？” Without taking time to reflect，I answered，“Because someday I might say something that might make a difference in someones life.” Even though I was sincere，that wasnt a very good answer and my student didnt let it slide.“Let me get this straight，” he said.“You went to college for four years so you could come here every day because you have the hope that someday you might say something that will influence someone？” He shook his head as if I were crazy and walked away looking confused.Im one of those people who look back and wish they had said something smart or witty，or swift.Even though that particular student might no longer wonder why I teach，there are days when I wonder.On those days，I remind myself of the real reasons I teach：Its in my blood.My mother was my most influential teacher，and she was a 6th grade reading teacher until her death in 1990.She instilled (逐渐灌输) in me a love of reading and the knowledge that education opens doors.Teaching is a way to make a difference.If you throw a stone in a pond the ripples go on and on until they reach the shore.You cant have ripples without a “stone”Good teachers throw stones that make a positive difference，and thats what I strive to do.I genuinely love teenagers.I want to share with others what I know and what I have learned through the years.Life is full of ups and downs，and if I can help students avoid some potholes on the road of life，I want to do so.If theyll allow me to celebrate their victories with them，I want to do，too.Teaching isnt for everyone，but I know I have made the right career choice.【语篇解读】为什么要从事教育事业？学生的提问让“我”认真思考了这个问题，发现原因就是母亲的影响、自己对教育事业的执着和对学生的热爱。12What do you think of the writer?AStupid.BHonest.CClever.DPolite.B细节理解题。通过作者的自我剖析，能够看出她作为一名教师，首先是很诚实的。故B项符合题意。13According to
