Part 2 Reading Comprehension (Multiple
Choice)

(
每小题：

)
Directions: Read the following passages carefully and choose
the best answer from the four choices marked A, B, C and D.


Questions 1 to 5 are based on the same passage or dialog.

Time passed and my cards sold well. My enthusiasm for the
greeting card business grew quickly. All along, I had been drawing


fantasy art: monsters, dragons, castles, etc. With the birth of my
first son in 1980, the content of my work went through a pretty
dramatic change.

Fantasy went out of the window, and I began to illustrate reality.

In the spring of 1983, we, The Mary Engelbreit Greeting Card
Company, took our 12 little designs to New York to exhibit them at
a national card show.

I remember how big the show was. I just couldn't get over it. I had
no idea there were so many different card companies. And it was
exciting because our 12 little cards were getting a lot of attention in
that huge place!

I've been told one of the reasons we had so much success at that
show is because my card style was different than anything else at
the market. I typically draw complicated details and use deep colors
and funny or meaningful quotations.

By 1985, many greeting card publishers started noticing my art, and
two of them approached me with licensing contracts.

I have always believed if you choose a job you love, you'll never
work a day in your life. If you ask about the mystery of my success,
all I can say is this: to imagine is everything!

Questions 6 to 10 are based on the same passage or dialog.

In 1913, the United States government introduced a bold, new
nickel. James Earle Fraser said his goal was to design a coin that
would be
more distinctive than the American buffalo. Choosing to show a
Native American on the other side of the coin, Fraser said the new
nickel had

counterfeiters (

the nickel had to do with its inability to stand heavy use. One coin

In 1938, the Government staged a competition for a new nickel
