I have always been interested in making things. When I was a child, I enjoyed drawing, but I also liked making things out of clay(粘土). I won a prize for one of my paintings when I was fourteen. That may be why I went to art school four years later. But I studied painting at first, not pottery(制陶). I like being a potter because I like to work with my hands and feel the clay. I'm happy working by myself and being near my home. I don't like mass-produced(集体生产)things, because they are made by machines. I think crafts(手工艺) are very important and crafts-people make things cleverly with hands. They make our lives colorful. When I left school, I got some money. I hope to become a full-time crafts-woman. This work-place is small, but I wish to move to a larger one next year.

1.From the passage we are sure that the writer is a _______.

A. student B. teacher C. man D. woman

2.The writer got into art school because of ______.

A. liking to make things

B. enjoying working near her home

C. a prize won when the writer was young

1.C
While small may be beautiful,tall is just plain uncomfortable it seems,particularly when it comes to staying in hotels and eating in restaurants.
The Tall Persons Club Great Britain (TPCGB),which was formed six months ago to campaign (发起运动) for the needs of the tall,has turned its attention to hotels and restaurants.Beds that are too small,shower heads that are too low,and restaurant tables with hardly any leg-room all make life difficult for those of above average height,it says.
But it is not just the extra-tall whose needs are not being met.The average height of the population has been increasing yet the standard size of beds,doorways,and chairs has remained unchanged.
"The bedding industry says a bed should be six inches larger than the person using it,so even a king-size bed at 6′6″(6feet and 6inches) is falling short for 25% of men,while the standard 6′3″bed caters for (满足需要) less than half of the male (男性) population."Said TPCGB president Phil Heinricy,"Seven-foot beds would work fine."
Similarly,restaurant tables can cause no end of problems.Small tables,which mean the long-legged have to sit a foot or so away from them,are enough to make tall customers go elsewhere.
Some have already taken note,however.At Queens Moat Houses′Caledonian Hotel in Edinburgh,6′6″beds are now put in as standard after requests for longer beds from taller visitors,particularly Americans.
64.What is the purpose of the TPCGB campaign?C
A.To provide better services.
B.To rebuild hotels and restaurants.
C.To draw public attention to the needs of the tall.
D.To attract more people to become its members.
65.Which of the following might be a bed of proper length according to Phil Heinricy?B
A.7′2″.B.7′.C.6′6″.D.6′3″.
66.What may happen to restaurants with small tables?A
A.They may lose some customers.
B.They may start businesses elsewhere.
C.They have to find easy chairs to match the tables.
D.They have to provide enough space for the long-legged.
67.What change has already been made in a hotel in Edinburgh?B
A.Tall people pay more for larger beds.
B.6′6″beds have taken the place of 6′3″beds.
C.Special rooms are kept for Americans.
D.Guest rooms are standardized.
