As a child, he liked playing with a stuffed (填充) rabbit his mother had made. “At that time, I knew he would become a craftsman(工匠)in the future，” Kalins mother said.Kalins father was a carpenter and taught him early how to use his hands. In high school, Kalin was so interested in photography that he cut class to take photos 18 hours a day. Eventually, Kalin ended up at New York University. One night, his landlord asked him to build a website for his restaurant. “I didnt know anything about websites, but I built the basic site by looking through books in four weeks，” Kalin recalls.After working on a craft site that provided “advice and a lot of handholding”， Kalin recognized that there was no market for their goods. He wrote a fan letter to Stewart Butterfield, the founder of Flickr, who had sold his highly popular photosharing website to Yahoo! Impressed by Kalins letter, he took a look at Kalins idea and invited him to San Francisco for a month in 2020;2020. He taught Kalin how to build a website, and helped him borrow $ 615,000 from a bank.With the help of Stewart, Kalin was able to create etsy. com, an online craft fair that may be the largest market for handmade goods in the world. Last year, 350,000 woodworkers, and other craftsmen sold their oneofakind goods on the fouryearold site. It sells everything from handknitted Tshirts to wooden electric guitars. In an age of chain stores and malls, it seems theres still a big market for the unique: custommade(定制)skirts and handpainted tea sets. Today, Etsys staff has increased to 70 employees, and more than three million consumers in 150 countries are buying goods on Etsy every year.21It can be learned from the passage that Rob Kalin _.Aopened a restaurant after graduationBwas good at building websites at universityCadmired Stewart Butterfield very muchDoffered good advice to craftsmen解析：根据文章第3段第2句可知Rob Kalin是Stewart的fan，故Rob很崇拜Stewart。答案：C22Which of the following can be used to describe Rob Kalin?AHelpful and creative.BCurious and changeable.CSmart and humorous.DStrict and brave.解析：根据文章的叙述可知Rob乐于助人，有创造性。答案：A23What can we learn about Etsy from the passage?AIt offered craftsmen advice at first and then began to sell crafts.BIt sells custommade clothes and other handmade things.CIt has employed 350,000 craftsmen.DIt was set up by Stewart Butterfield.解析：根据文章最后一段的描述可知B项正确。答案：B24Which is the correct order of the following events?aKarin was admitted into New York University.bStewart helped Kalin get enough money to create etsy. com.cKalin spent 18 hours taking photographs every day.dKalin worked on a site providing craftsmen with advice.eKalin rented a room from a restaurant owner.Aabdec BadcbeCcaedb Dcbade解析：根据文章的描述可知C项正确。答案：C.补全对话(2020;2020四川成都一诊)W: Welcome to our interview, Mr. Smith.M: _25_W: So, youre an Australian theater actor, but youve just come back from making a film in Los Angeles.M: Thats right.W: _26_M: Well, I was working in a play in Sydney and the director of the film came to see it.
