Of the 2500 national health service hospitals in Britain, almost 100 now have very valuable collections of present art in passages, waiting areas and treatment rooms.These recent movements first started by one artist, Peter Senior, who set up his studio at a Manchester hospital on northeastern England during the early 1970s. He felt the artist had lost his place in modern society, and that art should be enjoyed by a wider audience.A mon hospital waiting room might have as many as 5,000 visitors each week. What a better place to hold regular exhibitions of art! Senior held the first exhibition of his own paintings in the outpatients waiting area of the Manchester Royal Hospital in 1975. Believed to be Britains first hospital artist, Senior was so much in demand that he was soon joined by a team of six young art school graduates.The effect is striking. Now in the passages and waiting rooms the visitor experiences a full view of fresh colours, playful images and restful courtyards.The quality of the environment may reduce the need for expensive drugs when a patient is recovering from an illness. A study has shown that patients who had a view onto garden needed half the number of strong pain killers pared with patients who had no view at all or only a brick wall to look at.24. From the text, the collections of present art are not shown in . A. waiting areas B. passages C. washing rooms D.treatment rooms25. The underlined part to soften the hard edges of modern buildings in Paragraph2 means .Ato make the corners of hospital buildings round Bto decorate hospitals with art collectionsCto change peoples attitude toward hospitalsDto replace the old buildings with modern buildings26. From this text, weve learnt that .A. artists in Britain have pletely lost their places in modern society B. patients should be encouraged to learn artC. art is encouraged to be introduced into British hospitals D. hospitals in Britain should be changed into art museums27It can be inferred from this text that.Ahospitals in Britain look more beautiful than those in other countries Bhospital artists have done a lot for patientsCexhibitions of art in hospital attract more audience than that in museums Dthe quality of hospital environment is being recognizedCThe writer Margaret Mitchell is best known for writing Gone with the Wind, first published in 1936. Her book and the movie based on it, tell a story of love and survival during the American Civil War. Visitors to the Margaret Mitchell House in Atlanta, Georgia, can go where she lived when she started posing the story and learn more about her life.Our first stop at the Margaret Mitchell House is an exhibit area telling about the writers life. She was born in Atlanta in 1900. She started writing stories when she was a child. She started working as a reporter for the Atlanta Journal newspaper in 1922. One photograph of Ms. Mitchell, called Peggy, shows her talking to a group of young college boys. She was only about one and a half meters tall. The young men tower over her, but she seems very happy and sure of herself. The tour guide explains: “Now in this picture Peggy is interviewing some boys from Georgia Tech, asking them such questions as Would you really marry a woman who works? And today itd be Would you marry one who doesnt? ”The Margaret Mitchell House is a building that once contained several apartments. Now we enter the first floor apartment where Ms. Mitchell lived with her husband, John Marsh. They made fun of the small apartment by calling it “The Dump”.Around 1926, Margaret Mitchell had stopped working as a reporter and was at home healing after an injury. Her husband brought her books to read from the library. She read so many books that he bought her a typewriter and said it was time for her to write her own book. Our guide says Gone with the Wind became a huge success. Margaret Mitchell received the Pulitzer Prize for the book. In 1939 the film version was released. It won ten Academy Awards, including Best Picture.28. The book Gone with the Wind was _.

A Trip to Know Margaret Mitchell.D Last Thursday, Michael and Linda stood behind large food trucks distributing meals to 4,000 homeless people for their wedding reception on the border town of Kilis. The couple had decided that instead of hosting their friends and family for a traditional feast reception, they would feed the victims from an earthquake-stricken area. The idea came from the bridegrooms father, Ted, who volunteers for a Turkish relief organization. For the past few years, the organization has distributed daily meals to thousands of people whove suffered from natural disasters. He approached a representative of the organization and suggested that the family cover part of the costs of feeding them for the day. Then he told his son, who was surprised by the suggestion, but soon won over. When he told that to the bride, she was really shocked but finally accepted because in southeastern Turkey there is a real culture of sharing with people in need. They love to share their food, their table and everything they have. And afterwards she was quite amazed about it. So, they arrived at the distribution center on Thursday to spend the day serving food and taking photographs with their grateful recipients（接受者） On Tuesday evening, the newly married couple were still pleased with their decision to quit a personal celebration for one with a greater good. Its like sharing a dinner with your friends and family who have this kind of thing on a daily basis or sharing something with people who dont even have the most basic things, Michael said. Hopefully, this will also give the start for other wedding dinners to be held here with our brothers and sisters in need.32. Why did so many people crowd in Kilis? A.

We can know from the text that _. . A. Kilis is a place which lies in southeastern Turkey B. Ted was a representative of the organization C. Linda adopted the suggestion immediately she heard it D.
