9．When you are little，the whole world feels like a big playground．I was living in Conyers，Georgia the summer it all happened．I was a second grader，but my best friend Stephanie was only in the first grade．Both of our parents were at work and most of the time they let us go our own way．
   It was a hot afternoon and we decided to have an adventure in Stephanie's basement．As I opened the basement door，before us lay the biggest room，full of amazing things like guns，dolls，and old clothes．I ran downstairs，and spotted a red steel can．It was paint．I looked beyond it and there lay even more paint in bright colors like purple，orange，blue and green．
"Stephanie，I just found us a project for the day．Get some paintbrushes．We are fixing to paint．"She screamed with excitement as I told her of my secret plans and immediately we got to work．We gathered all the brushes we could find and moved all of our materials to my yard．There on the road in front of my house，we painted big stripes （条纹） of colors across the pavement （人行道）．Stripe by stripe，our colors turned into a beautiful rainbow．It was fantastic!
    The sun was starting to sink．I saw a car in the distance and jumped up as I recognized the car．It was my mother．I couldn't wait to show her my masterpiece．The car pulled slowly into the driveway and from the look on my mother's face，I could tell that I was in deep trouble．
    My mother shut the ear door and walked towards me．Her eyes glaring，she shouted，"What in the world were you thinking？I understood when you made castles out of leaves，and climbed the neighbors'trees，but this!Come inside right now!"I stood there glaring back at her for a minute，angry because she had insulted （侮辱） my art．
"Now go clean it up!"Mother and I began cleaning the road．Tears ran down my cheeks as I saw my beautiful rainbow turn into black cement．
    Though years have now passed，I still wonder where my rainbow has gone．I wonder if，maybe when I get older，I can find my rainbow and never have to brush it away．I guess we all need some sort of rainbow to brighten our lives from time to time and to keep our hopes and dreams colorful．

2．Hilversum is a medium-sized city between the major cities of Amesterdam andUtrecht in theGooi area of North Holland，the Netherlands．Unlike most of theNetherlands，Hilversum is actually in a hilly area with the soil mostly consisting of sand．Once called the Garden of Amsterdam，it still attracts travelers to come over to cycle and walk through the surrounding forests．They visit it for a relaxing day off from the urban madness．For Dutch people，Hilversum is all about textile（纺织）and media industries，and modern architecture．
In history，Hilversum was largely an agricultural area．Daily life was marked by farming，sheep raising and wool production．A railway link to Amsterdam in 1874attracted rich traders from Amsterdam to Hilversum．They built themselves large villas（别墅）in the wooded surroundings of the town．One of the families moving in was the Brenninkmeijers，currently the wealthiest family of the Netherlands．They moved in after big success in the textileindustry and aided a substantial textileindustry in Hilversum．But the textile boom lasted only several decades．The last factory closed in the 1960s．
The change to a media economy started in 1920，when theNederlandseSeintoestellenFabriek （NSF） established a radio factory in Hilversum．Most radio stations settled in the large villas in the leafy areas of the town．Television gave another push to the local economy．Hilversum became the media capital of theNetherlands，and Dutch television stars moved into the leafy neighborhoods surrounding the town．
In the early 1900s，modern architects W．M．Dudok and J．Duiker placedhundreds of remarkable buildings in Hilversum．These modern architecturalmasterpieces（杰作） are so many that Hilversum almost feels like an open airmuseum．Dudok alone shaped most of 20th century Hilversum and approximately 75buildings still bear his unique characteristics．His masterpiece，Hilversum Town Hall，was built in 1928-1931．It has wide international fame and is included in manyarchitecture textbooks．The building has remarkable shape and looks like acombination of"blocks"．Actually，one may start his journey of modern architecture by walking or biking the W．M．Dudok Architectural Route in Hilversum．

A．it has a large population
