I had piles of them and kept talking my Dad into making more shelves for me. One day, I read about a 13-year-old boy who had actually written one of my favorite comics, Legion of Super-Heroes, and I said, “I can do that too.” That year, I was two years younger than the writer.Three years later, a friend and I started our own fan magazine about comics. It became the first place that regularly told people when their favorite comics were coming out and writers and artists were working on them. Because of the magazine, I won the awards for The Comic Reader, but more important, it got many of the people in the field to know who I was.One day when I was visiting DC Comics for news for my next issue, one of the editors a chance to write text for his comic. Suddenly, at 16, I was getting paid to write.I was able to pay for my college classes working as an assistant editor at DC Comics and learned how to write comics stories while I was there. I wrote hundreds of stories. Over the years, I worked as an editor and an executive (主管) for the company, eventually serving as a president and publisher, until earlier this year. Now Im back to my first love, writing comics again.Every morning, I open my e-mail and find pages of art sent in by artists across the country who draw my stories. When Im tired of working on the stories, I can go online and find my readers commenting on my stories or telling me when I make mistakes.Keep reading and writing, its a wonderful way to live.1.

Pastry chefs (面包师) from around the country handed out samples of their very best work. Chef Scott Green, a chocolate sculptor, impressed the attendees at the show. Not only did he bring his work for all to see，but he also made chocolate sculptures right then and there.Green talked to TFK about his job as a chocolate sculptor. He explained that he thinks of himself as an artist who just happens to work with chocolate rather than wood or stone. “I hive been around chocolate so long that it isnt chocolate anymore,” he said. To learn more about the job of a chocolate sculptor, read on.TFK: What was the hardest thing that you have ever carved, and what was it made of?GREEN: In 2017, I did the U.S. Pastry Championship, and I had to carve ft castle out of white chocolate for the competition. I didnt have a lot of experience, and white chocolate is hard to carve. That was the hardest thing I have ever carved.TFK: How long does it take to make an average sculpture?GREEN: For me, it takes a couple of days. Most of that time is getting all the pieces ready. The easiest part is gluing it all together. Chocolate is used for glue. It holds together very well.TFK: How much chocolate do you use per sculpture?GREEN: It depends on the sculpture. For a show piece, I maybe use 20 to 60 pounds of chocolate. You have to be really strong to lift it. I always ask for help.TFK: Is it easier to work with sugar or chocolate?GREEN: They are very different. Generally speaking, it is easier to work with chocolate.

In fact, the study claims not exercising might be more harmful to your health than smoking.New findings, published Friday in the journal JAMA Network Open, detail how researchers at the Cleveland Clinic studied 122,007 patients from 1991 to 2014, putting them under treadmill (跑步机) testing and later recording death rates. Researchers found a clear connection between a longer, healthier life and high levels of exercise. The report calls for health care professionals to encourage patients to achieve and continue a strong and healthy fitness routine.Although it is widely understood that an active lifestyle can lead to a healthy life, the study concludes that a lifestyle which involves much sitting but little activity is equal to having a major disease and the simplest cure is exercise.Dr Wael Jaber, co-author of the study, called the results totally surprising. “Being unfit on a treadmill or in an exercise stress test has a worse prognosis (病情预断), as far as death, than being a smoker or suffering from high blood pressure,” Jaber told CNN. “Weve never seen something as noticeable as this and as objective as this.”The study also took a look at the risk of being overactive and found that extreme exercisers do not face higher risk of death: the research found that the more a person exercises the lower their death rates.8. Which of the following best explains “skipping out on” in paragraph 1?A. keeping away fromB. running inC. jumping out ofD. smoking inside9. What do we know from the new findings?A. An active lifestyle can lead to a healthy life.B. The simplest cure for a major disease is exercise.C. A person unfit on a treadmill is less likely to die.D. Ones life span is related to the level of exercise.10. What does Jaber think of the research results?A. Impossible.B. Amusing.C. Unbelievable.D. Uncertain.11. What conclusion can we draw from the last paragraph?A. Too much exercise will be no good.B. A low death rate depends on an active lifestyle.C. Extreme exercise is more harmful for health.D. The rise of death rate is related to exercise.DWhether youre on a long road trip or stuck in traffic while driving home from work, a low phone battery (电池) could mean disaster for the bored driver. At first, it may seem harmless to plug your phone into your cars USB port. But unless youre desperate, charging your phone in your car might be a big mistake.Why? First, the USB port in your vehicle probably provides less electricity than your phone really needs to charge. As a result, your phone might stop working while it charges, or worsehardly charge at all.Brad Nichols, a technician at Staymobile, told Readers Digest. “This is mostly due to the fact the phone is using more power than the car charger is supplying it.”Nichols also says that your phone could receive too much power, especially if youre using a “Cigarette Lighter” port to charge up. Most Cigarette Lighters can supply up to 10 amps (安培)，while most chargers use one to three amps. A damaged charger can provide inconsistent power to the phone, leading to sudden power increase that could cause damage to the inside parts, or on the rare occasion, destroy it.Charging your phone while on the road could use up your cars battery, too. If your engine is off, but you still use the radiothe phone will draw power from your cars battery as it charges. This usually isnt a big deal for those who own new cars with healthy batteries Nichols says. But if your car is an older model, you might want to avoid charging your phone through its USB port.Most importantly, it，s not safe to use your phone while operating a vehicle. “Anytime a persons hands leave the wheel or eyes leave the road, it becomes very dangerous for them and the other people around them,” Nichols says. Bottom line: Play it safe, and wait until you get home to plug in.12. Whats the main idea of the text?A. The bottom line of playing your phone safely.B. The problem with charging your phone in your car.C. The danger of operating a vehicle while charging.D. The best solution to charging your phone outside.13. What does “it” in paragraph 4 refer to?A. The phone.B. A damaged chargerC. “Cigarette Lighter” port.D. The inside parts.14. How many reasons does the author list against charging your phone in your car?A. 2.B. 3.C. 4.D. 5.15. Where is the passage probably taken from?A. A traffic report.B. A driving guide.C. A science magazine.D. A text book.第二节（共5小题；每小题3分，满分15分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。You are what you eat, goes an English saying. But actually, you are what you drink. Why?
