I had a bad habit of skipping to the last pages of a book. I just wanted to
see how it ended 1I was still in the middle of it. This habit2first my mom, then
my friends, and 3even my own daughter. Often my 4wouldn’t be limited just
to the books I read but also to what others were 5as well. Then one day my
daughter told me in anger, “Dad, please just read a book one6at a lime like
everyone else!”
At times I didn’t 7this bad habit to just books either. I also tried to skip
ahead in my own life and 8out what to do months and even years from now
9enjoying each day at present. Although I knew that the 10of my life wasn’t
done yet and that I had many pages 11to go. I still couldn’t control my
burning desire to write the12of it half-way through. Time and again, I would
13jump ahead and try to solve every potential problem before it happened.
Life,14, doesn’t work like that. It loves to 15us, and you never know what new
problems, changes or opportunities each new day will 16.

words, I 18, turned the book of my life back to the19page, and thanked God for
today.

Some people like modem art, while others say that is rubbish. But a
cleaner who works in the Tate Gallery in London isn’t able to tell the
difference. The woman, whose name isn’t known, mistook a work of art by
the German painter Gustav Metzger for a bag of rubbish, and threw it out with
other bags. The plastic bag, which contained pieces of paper and cardboard,
was later recovered outside the gallery, but the artist thought that it was too
damaged to be put on show again. 78-year-old Mr Metzger explained that the
exhibit, which he said was a copy of a similar work he had created in 1960, was
meant to show that all art is temporary and “finite” .
Embarrassed officials at the museum said that they had to call a meeting
with cleaners to explain which things should not be touched. They would not
say whether Mr Metzger would be paid any compensation for the incident.
However, to make absolutely sure the same thing would not happen again,
they decided to cover Mr Metzger’s work every evening with a colored cloth.
In this way the cleaners arriving after the gallery had closed to the general
public would realize they should not touch it.
This is not the first time that museum cleaners have had trouble
distinguishing exhibits from rubbish. In 2001, in another London gallery, a


cleaner threw away a work by the well-known British artist Damien Hirst. It was
an arrangement of empty beer bottles, coffee cups, and overflowing ashtrays,
which were meant to indicate the chaos in the life of an artist.
However, cleaners don’t always throw things away—sometimes they
clean them! This was the case with a dirty bath, which was on show in a gallery
in Germany. Without asking what the bath was doing in the gallery, the
cleaners simply scrubbed it clean.
（1）What’s the best title of the passage?
A . Cleaners mistake modem art for rubbishB . Modem art shouldn’t be
cleanedC . What makes a great work of artD . Cleaners don’t always throw
things away
（2）The officials of the museum covered Mr Metzger’s work so that .
A . the visitors couldn’t get close in the eveningB . they could get
recovered soonC . the cleaners wouldn’t make the same mistakeD . they
would return to normal
（3）Which of the following is NOT true?
A . People have different opinions on modem artB . Mr Metzger would be
paid much compensationC . A work of Damien Hirst was thrown away by a
cleaner in 2001D . Some modem work is about artists’ chaos of their life
（4）The last paragraph is written to show that .
A . cleaners often make exhibits as clean as possibleB . cleaners can’t
always differ exhibits from rubbishC . exhibits are usually difficult to cleanD .
exhibits are not always so beautiful

Do you want to make a difference in your community? The Verizon App
Challenge can get you started. The first step is to think of a problem in your
community. The next step is to create an app that can solve the problem.
Group of five to seven students in middle school or high school, led by a
teacher, can enter the contest. First, teams will compete on a local level. Teams
that make it to the next round receive $$ 5,000 for their schools. Finalists
present their app ideas to judges in a live web conference. Next, the judges
pick national winners. The top eight teams receive an additional $$ 15,000 for
their schools, and each team member receives a Samsung tablet. Plus, the
winning teams get the chance to bring their app to life.
A group of six girls from Los Frenos, Texas won the second annual Verizon
App Challenge. They came up with the Hello Navi app concept, short for
“hello navigation”. The app was designed to help visually impaired
students navigate their school. Do you have an app idea that could help solve
a local issue? The deadline to register is November 24. Find more information
and register your team at /appchallenge.
Here are some tips from the Verizon Foundation to get you started:
Get your team together for a brainstorming meeting. Write out all the
ideas that conic to mind. Don’t ignore challenges. Accept the idea that you
can solve a problem that exists in your community. Ask family, friends and
people in your community to share their thoughts about problems that they
want to see solved.
