24、No one knows when the first kite was made. The first record of a kite was more than 2, 000 years ago in China. Han Xin, the leader of an army, wanted to bring down a king. He decided to dig a tunnel(隊道)into the king’s palace. He flew a kite over the wall of the palace to make sure the length(长度)of its string(线). In this way, he could determine how long the tunnel should be. His men in the tunnel took the kite string with them. When they reached the end of the string, they knew to dig up.
Kites have been flown in Japan for hundreds of years. In the 1700s, kites were flown in autumn to give thanks for a good harvest. They were also flown to send good wishes to couples who had their first son. Today in Japan, kites are often flown as part of a celebration, such as the beginning of a new year. And kite festivals are held each year in many parts of the country.
Kites have been used for scientific purposes in the western world. In l752, Benjamin Franklin tied a key to a kite and flew it in a storm to find out that lightening was a form of electricity. In the 1890s, Lawrence Hargrave invented the box kite to test ideas about flight. From 1898 until 1933, the United States Weather Bureau(气象局)used box kites to collect weather data. The Wright brothers also experimented(试验)with kites. What they learnt helped them make the first airplane flight in 1903.

25、Every artist knows in his heart that he is saying something to the public. Not only does he want to say it well, but he wants it to be something that has not been said before. He hopes the public will listen and understand what he wants to teach them, and what he wants them to learn from him.
What visual(视觉的)artists like painters want to teach is easy to make out but difficult to explain,
because painters translate their experience into shapes and colours, not words. They seem to feel that a
certain selection of shapes and colours, out of countless billions of, is exceptionally interesting for them and worth showing to us. Without their work we should never have noticed these particular Shapes and colours. or have felt the delight which they brought to the artist.
Most artists take their shapes and colours from the world of nature and from human bodies in motion and at rest; their choices indicate(指示)that these aspects of the world are worth looking at, that they contain beautiful sights. Contemporary(当代的)artists might say that they merely choose subjects that provide an interesting pattern, that there is nothing more in it. Yet even they do not choose entirely without reference to the character of their subjects.
If one painter chooses to paint a decaying(腐烂)leg and another a lake in moonlight, each of them is directing our attention to a certain aspect of the world. Each painter is telling us something, showing us something, emphasizing something-all of which means that, consciously(有意识地)or unconsciously, he is trying to teach us.
【1】 An artist hopes that the public will .
A. understand him and learn from him
B. notice only shapes and colours in his work

A. does not express himself/herself well
B. uses unusual words and phrases
C. uses shapes and colours instead of words

【3】 The writer points out that the contemporary artists might say their choices of subject .
A. carry a message to the public
B. only provide interesting pattern
C. have no pattern or form
D. teach the public important truths
【4】What do you know from the passage?
A. A painting is more easily understood that music.
B. Art is merely the arranging of shape and colours.
C. Every artist tries to say something consciously to the public.
D. One must look beyond shape and colour to find what the artist is saying.

Reporters must be curious. They have to find out the answers to questions. They ask many people the same questions to make sure the information is true. 【4】 What do people want to know most?
