21、Why are people taking pictures of their faces.their hobbies and their food? Why do we capture every single moment? I can't really give you an answer, because honestly, I am one of those people who take photographs of everything.
The special thing about photography Is that we can capture moments anywhere and anytime.All we need for this is our smartphone - something that rarely leaves our side.
Compared to other forms of visual (视觉的) art, you don't need any special talent for it.Every single one of us can get started with this wonderful hobby no matter if your goal is to sell your photographs or just to keep them for your own viewing pleasure.
Every picture you lake is a personal story.There is no painting without context (背景).However, unlike a painting, you don't need to spend hours of your time on it It is a way to express yourself, with little to no skill involved.
If you prefer to share your pictures with the world, you can also get immediate feedback (即时反馈) Camera phones allow us to upload our pictures in a few seconds Pictures connect and show the people around us what is going on in our life night now.
The most amazing hing for me is without question the ability to capture every single moment in my life with just a single click of a button (按钮) Thus enables me to remember every experience as it happens.It's crazy how the emotions of one single picture can throw you back in time.We can connect to our past no matter where we are and preserve those memories that are most meaningful to us.
Photography is also an amazing tool to appreciate the world around us and to stay in the moment - There is more to this hobby than “just taking pictures” .It is a way to express your feelings, your drives (渴望) and also yourself.Photography is art, and it allows each of us to become an artist Embrace your artsy (有艺术气息的) side, and take a picture of your next adventure! You won't regret it, I promise.

23、 A family in Edinburgh has discovered that an old chess piece they kept in a drawer for 55 years is a long-lost part of a medieval(中世纪的）chess set. The piece was bought by their grandfather for £5 from an antique dealer in Edinburgh in 1964. It is estimated that it could now sell for £ 1 million at auction(拍卖). It is one of five missing pieces from the Lewis Chessmen, a set of medieval chess pieces that were found in a sand hill on the Isle of Lewis, off Scotland’s west coast, in 1831.
The piece is 8.8 centimeters tall and made from walrus ivory, a rare material in those days. It is warder, which is a prison guard, with a helmet, shield and sword. This piece would be the same as a rook(车), or castle in a modern chess set.
The family, who don’t want to make their name public, explained how their grandfather was unaware of the piece’s importance when he bought it in 1964. After he died, it was looked after by his daughter, who believed that it had magical qualities. They finally realized how important the piece was when it was examined by Alexander Kader, an expert at Sotheby’s auction house in London.
The Lewis Chessmen are famous all over the world. The set is split between the National Museum of Scotland in Edinburgh, and the British Museum in London, attracting lots of visitors. They are thought to have been made in Trondheim, Norway, between AD 1150 and 1200, and were probably buried on Lewis for safekeeping on their way to being sold in Ireland. Nobody really knows for sure why they were buried there or how they were discovered.
The piece will go on display in Edinburgh and then London before its auction on 2 July. It is expected to either be bought by, or loaned to, a museum. Kader says there are still four missing pieces out there, “However, it might take another 150 years for one to show up.”
【1】Which of the following is TRUE about the Lewis Chessmen?
A.It has a history of 55 years. B.It consists of 5 missing chesses.

【2】People are most likely to see the Lewis Chessmen _________ .
A.in a sand hill B.in the museums
C.in a family drawer D.at an auction house
【3】Why did the daughter keep the chess piece for so many years?
A.She was honoring her late grandfather’s wish.
B.She knew it had certain historical value.
C.She didn’t want to make its existence public.
D.She thought it had some mysterious power-
【4】What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A.Where the chess piece will end up remains to be seen.
B.The other four missing pieces will eventually surface.
C.The family expects the piece to be sold to the museum.
D.The auction will attract many private collectors in Scotland.
24、Have you ever thought of yourself as the main character of a heroic adventure? It could be good for your health. Research suggests that imagining yourself on a hero’s journey could help you achieve a more meaningful life. You might be familiar with the hero’s journey. 【1】 Mulan, and Harry Potter courageously facing their trials, all take this journey. How can you start imagining your life as a hero’s journey? Here, experts share some strategies.
Keep a journal. Ask yourself: What makes you you? Describe your personality and core values. Think about events in your life that made you who you are today. Then consider the challenges that stand in your way, and which friends can help you on your journey. 【2】
Change the way you see obstacles. Going through a tough time? See your problems as challenges. 【3】 A challenge is a chance to develop strength and be the hero of your own story.
Go on more heroic adventures. “We like people who have new experiences and grow from their challenges.” Roger says. 【4】 It can be simple, like walking a new route to school. Or it can be dramatic, like borrowing a bike and riding it to school.
【5】 Say you’re facing a big challenge. Thinking of a favorite hero’s story can help you have that eagle-eye view of what might be next for you, or what you should be paying attention to.
