21、Street art can be found on buildings, sidewalks, street signs and even trash cans from Tokyo to Paris to New York City. This special kind of art can take the form of paintings, sculptures, cloth or even stickers. It has become part of a global visual culture. Now, even art museums and galleries are collecting the works of street artists.

It is not easy to provide an exact history of the street art movement. This kind of art has developed in many kinds of ways in places all over the world. Also, because it is illegal to paint on public and private property without permission, street artists usually work secretly. This secretive nature of street art and its countless forms make it hard to define exactly. And people have different opinions about the movement. Some think street art is a crime and destroys property. But others see this art as a rich form of non-traditional cultural expression.

Many experts say the movement began in New York City in the 1960s. Young adults would use paint in special cans to spray their “tag” on walls and train cars around the city. This tag was a name they created to identify themselves and their artwork. This colorful style of writing is also called graffiti (涂鸦). It is visually exciting and energetic. Some graffiti paintings were signs marking the territories of city gangs or illegal crime groups.

Graffiti also became a separate movement expressing the street culture of young people living in big cities. Graffiti art represented social and political rebellion (叛逆). This was art that rejected the accepted rules of culture and power. These artists could travel around areas of the city making creative paintings for everyone to see. Sometimes this street art created a conflict between artists and city officials. Graffiti artists created their images and city officials quickly painted over them.

During the 1980s, two New York painters—Keith Haring and Jean Michel began showing their work in art galleries and museums. This is when street art started to become part of the more general popular culture.

【1】What can we infer from the first paragraph?

A. Street art has become popular and is accepted as a kind of culture.

B. Street art is very special compared with other forms of popular art.

C. Many people are beginning to learn street art.

D. Street art is better developed in big cities than in rural areas.

【2】Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?

A.“TAG” was a word created by people to distinguish street artists and the other artists.

B. There are three reasons explaining why it is hard to define the history of street art.

C. The movement of street art began in the 1980s in New York City.

D. All the people don’t think that the street art is a rich form of cultural expression.

【3】The city officials used to get rid of graffiti probably because ________.

A. they caused arguments between people

B. they were ugly in someone’s eyes

C. they were not painted under proper guidance

D. they didn’t express traditional culture

【4】Which is the best title of the passage?

A. The Way to Become a Street Artist

B. What Does Graffiti Art Stand For?

C. The History of Street Art Movement

D. The Work of Street Artists

22、Carrying too much credit card debt comes with a number of risks — thousands of dollars in interest payments, delayed financial goals, and possible even damage to your credit score.【1】 You should maintain spending and payment habits that help you avoid getting yourself in over your head.

Build a Safety Net. Without access to emergency savings, a credit card may be your only option to save you from a major car repair, medical bill, or other unexpected expense. While it takes time to build the recommended savings large enough to cover six months of living expenses, starting with a small amount like $500 or $1,000 can help you take care of those little expenses that pop up. 【2】.

Stick to What You Can Afford.【3】While you might rationalize that you can easily pay over time, promising your future income is risky. A better habit: save up for things you want rather than putting them on credit and only swipe your credit card for purchases you can afford to repay right away.

Avoid Unnecessary Balance Transfers. Transferring a balance from a high interest rate credit card to one with a lower interest rate is a smart move to pay off your balance at a lower cost. 【4】

Always Pay on Time. Staying on track with your credit card payments is one of the best ways to avoid credit card debt. Once you miss a payment, your next payment due will be much higher. 【5】It gets tougher to catch up, puts a strain on your budget, and tempts you to use your credit cards to make ends meet.

A．Still, credit card debt can be avoided.

B．Pay Your Full Balance Each Month.

C．You can build your emergency fund steadily over time.

D．Then you’ll have to make two payments plus pay the late fee.

E．Access to credit can be tempting when you spot items you want.

F．However, doing so, for example, to avoid a payment due date, can backfire.

G．Understanding features of your credit card can help you avoid credit card debt.

23、Vincent van Gogh (30 March,1853~29 July,1890) was a Dutch Post-Impressionist artist.【1】

Van Gogh spent his early adult life working for a firm of art dealers.【2】 He did not begin his career as an artist until 1880. However, during the last ten years of his life, he produced more than 2,000 pieces, including around 900 paintings and 1,100 drawings and sketches.He worked only with somber (昏暗的) colours until he met Impressionism and Neo-Impressionism in Paris. 【3】 Most of his best-known works were produced during his final two years, when he was suffering from serious mental illness.

Vincent van Gogh’s mother threw away quite a number of his paintings during Vincent’s life and even after his death.But she would live long enough to see her son become a world famous painter.

The only painting he sold during his lifetime, The Red Vineyard, was created in 1888. 【5】 Several paintings by Van Gogh rank among the most expensive paintings in the world. On March 30, 1988 Van Gogh’s painting Irises was sold for a record$53 million at Sotheby’s, New York. On May 15, 1990, his Portrait of Doctor Gachet was sold for$82.5 million at Christie’s, thus establishing a new price record.

24、If you are hungry, what will you do? Grab a piece of your favorite meal and stay quiet after that? Just like stomach, even your mind will be hungry. But it never lets you know, because you keep it busy thinking about your dream lover, favorite star and many such absurd things. So it silently begins to hide your needs and never lets itself grow. When mind loses its freedom to grow, creativity gets its full stop. This might be the reason why we all sometimes think “What happens next？”， “Why can't I think？”， “Why am I always given the difficult problems？” Well, this is the after­effect of using our brain for thinking of not­so­worthy things.

Hunger of the mind can be actually satisfied through extensive reading. But why is it reading but not watching TV? Because reading has been the most educational tool used by us right from the childhood. Just like that to develop other aspects of our life, we have to turn to reading for help. You have a number of books in the world which will answer all your “how­to” questions. Once you read a book, you just don't run your eyes through the lines, but your mind decodes (译解) it and explains it to you. The interesting part of the book is stored in your mind as a seed. Now this seed is unknowingly used by you in your future to develop new ideas. The same seed, if used many times, can help you link and relate a lot of things, which you would never think of in your wildest dreams！This is nothing but creativity. The more books you read, the wider your mind will become. Also this improves your oratorical (speech­making) skills to a large extent and also makes a significant contribution to your vocabulary. When you start speaking English or any other language fluently with your friends or other people, you never seem to run out of the right words at the right time.

Actually, I had a problem in speaking English fluently，but as I read, I could improve significantly. So guys, do join me and give food for your thoughts by reading, reading and more reading. Now what are you waiting for? Go, grab a book and let me know!
