18.Though many Internet celebrities try to shrug off their fame,Yan Mingliang,27,has dreamed of joining the Internet elite(精英) ever since he entered college.
However,luck didn't favor him.Instead,fame fell into the lap of his pet dog,Beiji.In early 2015,Yan used his microblog to post two pictures of Beiji lying on the ground,and they went viral on social media.Because he took the photos at a strange angle,it almost looks like Beiji's body has fallen apart.
Finally,Yan got to experience what is like to be an Internet celebrity,or more accurately,the owner of an Internet celebrity dog.New followers started to flood in,and Yan received hundreds of private messages each day.In less than four weeks,Yan managed to attract more than 20,000followers."I am famous now."Yan thought at that time.
However,fame didn't just bring joy,but also annoyance.Since Beiji was only 3months old and Yan sometimes had to put him into a cage as a means of"education",there were also private messages from followers who fiercely criticized Yan for being too cruel.
"It gradually occurred to me that no matter how frankly you present yourself on social media,Internet users only witness part of your life.And their judgments depend on that partial life story of yours,"said Yan,"They don't know how hard it is to raise a pet dog when you're unemployed,Yan explained.They also don't care about whether the dog they're enjoying is being pushed too hard."
Yan finally decided to leave his Internet fame behind and focus more on his real life."The lesson I learned is that,if you can't live up to your followers'expectations,it's better not to be an Internet celebrity,"he said.

A.were exposed                    
B.became widely-spread
C.were criticized                   
D.became viruses
30.Why did Yan become famous?A

D.Because he became an Internet celebrity.
31.How did Yan probably feel at first when he realized he became well-known?D
A.puzzled and annoyed              
B.surprised and tired
C.disappointed and annoyed          
D.excited and joyful

A.It is hard to raise a pet dog.
B.He isn't fully understood on the Internet.
C.He decided to stop making use of his microblog.

    In his first 100 races he never even came close to winning.Still,he got right back on and trained again.Even as a schoolboy,Arcaro had set his own track in life.Because he was only a little over five feet tall (1.5 meters) and weighed barely 80 pounds (36kg),the other students picked on him.So he skipped school,hanging out at the local race track where a trainer let him ride horses.
    His father reluctantly agreed to let him pursue a career as a jockey.The trainer had told him so."Send him back to school,"he said."He'll never be a rider."In spite of that,Arcaro was determined not just to ride,but to become the world's greatest jockey.But first someone would have to give him a chance.
    He finally got to ride in a real race.Before it was over,he'd lost his whip and his cap and had almost fallen off the saddle.By the time he finished the race,the other horses were on their way to the stables(马厩).He'd come in dead last.Nevertheless,Arcaro went from track to track,looking for any opportunity to ride.
    Finally,a trainer who pitied him took him in and gave him a chance.One hundred losses later,he was still giving him chances.He saw something in this unlucky jockey,something he couldn't define.
    There were many brushes with death and several broken bones.Every time he would return to the saddle.Then Arcaro began to win.In thirty years of riding,he won 4,779 races,becoming the only jockey in history to win the Kentucky Derby five times.By the time he retired in 1962 he was a millionaire and a legend in his own lifetime.

We all do it. We make huge plans for New Year's Eve. As the big day approaches, we start building expectations, planning the best night of our lives. And yet, it rarely lives up. After all, how could it? We set unrealistic goals for a single night when many places are crowded and loud, there are tons of noisy drunk people, and an astronomical bill comes at the end of the evening. You're left wondering, "Was it worth it?" Fortunately, all it takes is a little reconsideration of your expectations to make sure this year's big night is one to remember.

If you get smashed on New Year's Eve, it is likely that you won't even remember what you did and whether or not you had fun. That's not saying there's something wrong with having a couple of glasses of wine at midnight. After all, it is a celebration. Just keep it light, since you want to remember the fun you had with your friends and family. After all, do you really want to spend the first day of the new year with drunkenness?

Many people like to spend the holidays with their friends and family. You could reserve a table at a favorite restaurant, but how about staying home and cooking? There's nothing worse than having to shout across the table because the restaurant is so crowded, except maybe waiting in line for an hour or more for that privilege. Never mind the bill will almost always be significantly higher than it would be almost any other night of the year. If you love to cook, you can make a great meal that everyone can enjoy.

A great idea for an at-home New Year's Eve party is wonderful. If it's a large get-together, it might be difficult to have a sit-down meal due to space restrictions, but a buffet is always a good choice. You just need to display the dishes for them to choose as they wish. Consider your space and guests' comfort when deciding what to serve.

1.Why do our huge plans for New Year's Eve usually fail?

A. We waste too much money on dinner.

B. There are drunken people everywhere.

C. Every place is crowded with people.

D. We pin too much on a single night.

2.Which of the following can replace the underlined word "smashed" in Paragraph 2?

A. Tired. B. Drunk.

3.What did the author suggest doing to spend holidays with your friends and family?

A. Treating them at home.

B. Inviting them to dinner outside.

C. Waiting in line for a favorite restaurant.

D. Booking a great meal that everyone can enjoy.

4.What should you do if your home is not big enough?

A. Try to arrange a sit-down meal for your friends.

B. Serve a small meal according to your space.

C. Let your friends help themselves to dishes.

D. Consider your guests' comfort only.
