24、A “Gap Year” is a period of time when a student takes a break before going to university. It is often spent traveling or working. It can give young people useful learning experiences and new skills.

Gap years are popular with European and Australian students, but remain less popular in America. However, in recent years, more and more American students are preparing for college by taking a gap year. The advantages of taking a gap year are as follows：

Learn about the World and Yourself

Although you don’t have to go abroad to experience gap years, most gap year students catch the chance to travel abroad. You are able to work out who you are and what you are for. The experiences of different cultures offer you interesting lessons. You can learn more about the world and get to know yourself better.

Face Challenges and Have Fun

A gap year is not only a time to take a vacation, but also a time to face challenges. Gap year students usually work, volunteer or take service projects.

Save Money and Improve Your College Admission Chances

Besides, at the end of a gap year, students are much more likely to know what to study in college. Clear learning goals ran keep the students working hard instead of wasting time and money playing.

27、What can you do to help yourself get out of stress or worry? If you're an artist, you keep making art. And if you have never considered yourself an artist, now is the time to take up an artistic hobby such as drawing or painting. It is never too late to start. Everyone can do it. If you can hold a brush or crayon, you can create art.

Creating art heals（治愈）not only the mind and spirit but also the body since all of these are connected. As you draw or paint,   your breathing slows, your blood pressure lowers, and your mind lets go of daily problems. This slowing down allows you to fully experience the moment.The process not only relaxes you but also brings a feeling of joy, increasing your energy and enthusiasm （热情）for life.

Making art also allows you to play, freeing you to find out and try out new materials and methods. It also lets you express pleasure by seeing beauty where others may not. Creating art provides you a special chance to express your anger or upset, as well as your personal ideas.

Although the process of making art is the most important part, your finished product is significant too.Your painting or drawing will remind you of the lessons you learned while making it, and you may feel energetic just by looking at it.

If you don't know how to begin, here are some ways to start creating art. If possible, set aside a small table with your brushes and watercolors so you can get creative whenever you get inspiration. Without thinking much about it, just choose colors that you like and start painting with them, or cut pictures with those colors out of magazines and glue them down, combining（结合）them with paints. The act of enjoying the colors and working on the color combinations will give you something to focus on instead of the stresses of your daily life.

【1】What do you need to do if you start making art according to Paragraph 1?

A．Ask a teacher for help.

B．Start as early as possible.

C．Be a young artist first.

D．Just have a brush or crayon.

【2】What can you learn about making art from Paragraphs 2 and 3?

A．It is good for our health.

B．It causes high blood pressure.

C．It's like playing games.

D．It helps us solve daily problems.
