【题目】 Playing video games and getting money for it seems like a dream job for many of today’s teenagers. But is it all fun and games?

Big business

Pro (professional) gaming is certainly big business. In 2017, there were more than 3,000 gaming competitions and over 10,000 professional players worldwide. A large number of people watch their competitions online, and successful gamers can get more than 1,000,000 dollars from prize money and ads. The industry is clearly thriving.

What it takes

Becoming a professional is not just about being good at playing games- it also takes a lot of hard work. Some pro gamers practice for fourteen hours a day. "You need to spend much time and put all your efforts to it", says ex-gamer George

Not all fun and games

It can be a difficult job as well. Stress is a big problem for gamers. Tiredness is another, and injuries(受伤) are common. Top player Hai Lam had wrist(手腕) problems after years of pro gaming. Careers(生涯)are short, and many gamers retire (退休) before they are 30 and try to find another job.

However, the bad points probably won't change the dreams of many teenage gamers. And angry parents are still likely to hear the excuse, “But I'm just practicing for my future job!”

【1】How many professional players were there around the world in 2017?

A. 130.000.B. More than 3, 000.C. Over1,000.000.D. More than 10.000

【2】What does the underlined word "thriving" in Paragraph 2 mean

A. Getting worse.B. Doing well.C. Developing slowly.D. Changing quickly.

【3】What can we infer from the last sentence of the passage?

A. Children are angry with their parents

B. Teenagers practice games for their future jobs

C. Some teenagers are crazy about playing games

D. Parents stop their children playing games successfully.

【4】What's the main idea of the passage?

A. Pro gaming isn't all fun and games

B. The career as a pro gamer doesn't last long

C. Being a pro gamer is a good choice for teenagers.

D. Being a pro gamer is an easy way to make money.

【答案】

【1】D

【2】B

【3】C

【4】A

【解析】

玩电脑游戏挣钱对今天的青少年来说好像是一个梦想中的工作，都是乐趣和游戏吗？真正的专业游戏人员需要花费大量的时间来练习，需要投入全部的精力，压力对他们来说是一个大问题，受伤很普通，顶尖玩家Hai Lam就有手腕问题，许多玩家30前就退休，但是这些不好的情况不能改变青少年游戏者的梦想。

In some faraway places in the world, drones are the fastest way to send medicine to people who are in great need of it.

【题目】 This painting is called The Fighting Temeraire. Temeraire is the name of the big, old sailing ship that you can see on the left of the picture. People chose this picture to be the greatest painting in Britain.

J. M. W. Turner painted it in 1839. It shows the old sailing ship, the Temeraire, on the River Thames near London. There’s a small tugboat pulling the old ship. It’s in fact taking the Temeraire on its last journey. The old ship is going to the breaker’s yard. In the background we can see the sun setting.

The picture, however, is more than just a painting of two boats in the evening. The artist wanted to show the end of an era (时代). The time of the beautiful, old sailing ships is coming to an end. That’s why we see this happening at sunset. In the little, brown tugboat we can see the new industrial era starting. The tugboat is small and dark and it’s making a lot of smoke, but it’s very strong, because it’s pulling the much bigger ship.

The painting shows a real event. Turner watched the Temeraire taking its last journey up the Thames, but he changed some of the details. He painted the old ship white and gold so that it looks like a ghost. In fact, the real ship was black and yellow. We also see the sun setting behind the ship, but in fact, the ship travelled towards the sunset. However, Turner wanted to show the sun setting on the time of the beautiful old sailing ships.

Turner painted The Fighting Temeraire when he was quite old, so perhaps he wanted to show the sun setting on his own life, too. He loved the painting and he never sold it. You can see it today in the National Gallery in London.

【1】The Fighting Temeraire _______.

A. is the name of a big sailing shipB. was thought the best painting in Britain

C. shows two nice new shipsD. was painted by a famous young artist

【2】The old ship was pulled to the yard ______.

A. to be painted newB. to be repairedC. to be broken upD. to be sold

【3】What does the tugboat stand for according to the passage?

A. The new industrial era.B. The beautiful old era.

C. The painter’s own life.D. The white and gold ghost.

【4】What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?

A. The color of the real sailing ship was white and gold.

B. In the painting the sailing ship was going towards the sunset.

C. Finally Turner sold this painting because he didn’t like it.

D. Today the painting is kept in the National Gallery in London.
