Lita Cabellut is one of Spains most successful artists. Her paintings now sell for more than $100，000， but she spent her early years living on the streets.

Cabellut was born in 1961. While she was a baby， she was left with her grandmother by her parents. In fact， she spent most of her time out with other homeless children on the streets.

She didnt go to school and it never crossed her mind that one day she would become an artist. So what changed Cabelluts life so greatly？

Cabelluts grandmother died when she was about 10 years old. And she lived in an orphanage （孤兒院） before being adopted by a family at the age of 12. They took her to museums and introduced her to art. One painting by Goya， a famous Spanish painter， made a deep impression on her. She even tried to copy one of Goyas other paintings. The result was not very good， but her adopted family encouraged her to keep painting.

And for the first time in her life， she also started going to school. She says， “Its hard to start learning to read and write when you are 13. I had a lot of private classes at home because I had to learn everything.” She slowly made progress at school and started to listen to the radio program “Voice of Art”. After graduating from university， she kept painting.

Today， Cabellut is best known for her portraits， which include not only paintings of famous people such as Charlie Chaplin， but also some ordinary people who might consider ugly.

“I dont see ugly people，” says Cabellut. “I paint different people. I paint people in whom you need to find the real beauty behind the skin.”

She always says， “People are not buying just paintings—its the magic and emotion that is the spirit of art.”

24. What can we learn about Cabellut from the text？

A. She isnt a successful artist. B. She is more than fifty years old now.

C. She dreamed of being an artist as a little girl. D. She was sent to an orphanage after her birth.

25. What can we learn about Cabellut when she was about 10 years old？

A. Her talent for painting was first found. B. She went to school for the first time.

C. Her grandmother passed away. D. She was adopted by a family.

26. What is Cabellut most famous for？

A. Her portraits. B. Her radio program.

C. Her talent for learning. D. Her magic and emotion of drawing.

27. What do Cabelluts paintings mainly focus on？

A. People who are usually considered ugly. B. The real beauty behind every person.

C. The appearances of different people. D. Famous people in different times.

Nowadays more and more people are too busy with work to relax themselves. We have no time to tell a bedtime story to our children， or enjoy a nice dinner with our family， or take a break to think about how we live the valuable life， or even meet friends. All we notice is that the distinctions that used to guide and steady us—between Sunday and Monday， public and private， here and there—are gone. We have more ways to communicate， but less and less to say， partly because were so busy communicating.

Maybe thats why more and more people I know， even if they have no religious belief， seem to be turning to yoga， or meditation （冥想）， or tai chi. Some friends of mine try to go on long walks every Sunday， or to “forget” their cellphones at home. A series of tests in recent years has shown that their brains become both calmer and sharper after spending time in quiet rural settings.

In my own case， I often turn to extreme measures to try to keep my sanity （清醒） and ensure that I have time to do nothing at all. Ive not yet used a cellphone and Ive never tweeted Facebook. I tried not to go online till my days writing was finished， and I moved from Manhattan to rural Japan.

None of this is a matter of principle or asceticism （苦行主義）：Its just pure selfishness. Nothing makes me feel better—calmer， clearer and happier—than being in one place， absorbed in a book， a conversation， or a piece of music. Its actually something deeper than mere happiness： Its joy， which the monk David Steindl-Rast describes as “that kind of happiness that doesnt depend on what happens”. That is the highest of the highest we have been longing for—the joy of quiet.

28. The underlined part in Paragraph 2 suggests that the friends ____ .

A. think the cellphone isnt a suitable means of communication

B. leave their cellphones at home on purpose

C. hate modern techniques

D. are really forgetful

29. Why does the author sometimes do nothing at all？

A. He is out of work. B. He is worried about his writing.

C. He finds his work so dull. D. He can enjoy himself in his leisure time.

30. What is the author most probably？

A. A writer. B. A doctor. C. A businessman. D. A scientist.

31. What does the text mainly want to tell us？

A. The more we communicate， the better we will feel. B. We can do some sports such as yoga to relax.

C. To feel better， we should do nothing at all. D. Enjoying quiet time is very important.

The ruins of a Maya city have been discovered in Guatemala with the help of the remote sensing technique LiDAR. This lost city envelops sites like Tikal， Holmul， and Witzna， but shows that these famous areas are a small part of this lost urban network.

Hidden under the jungles of the Maya Biosphere Reserve site， more than 60，000 human-made features—homes， canals， highways， and more—have been identified in aerial （從飛機上的） images collected by some international researchers headed by the PAGUNAM Foundation， a Maya cultural and natural heritage organization. Those have experts rethinking the outlines and complexity of the Maya Empire.

These ancient peoples obviously created these imaginative cultures based on their known relics， but the new research has suggested that the size of this lost society is far beyond what experts imagined. The findings will be explored in a one-hour documentary called Lost Treasures of the Maya Snake Kings， to be broadcast on the National Geographic Channel.

This breakthrough was possible thanks to LiDAR sensors， which can survey lands in 3D by bouncing （反射） pulses off the ground from unmanned air vehicles and others. LiDAR is exceptionally useful for detecting archeological （考古的） sites， as it gets through jungles and other features that hold up exploration on the ground. The technique has made many discoveries become a reality in recent years. For instance， major finds at Angkor， Cambodia and Caracol， Belize can explain what it did. The final goal is to survey Guatemalas lowlands with it.

“There are entire cities we didnt know about now showing up in the survey data，” Francisco Estrada-Belli， one of the lead archeologists on the project， said in Nat Geos coming documentary. “There are 20，000 square kilometers more to be explored and there are going to be hundreds of cities about the mysterious people who built this urban network there that we dont know about， and we will push back the frontiers with the technology，” he added.

32. What does the underlined word “Those” in Paragraph 2 refer to？

A. Jungles. B. Researchers. C. Aerial images. D. Human-made features.

33. What does the author want to convey in Paragraph 4？

A. The working principle of LiDAR sensors. B. Great importance of Guatemalans lowlands.

C. The process of researching Maya civilization. D. LiDARs contribution to discovering the relics.

34. Which words can best describe the lost Maya city？

A. Small and hidden. B. Vast and complex.

C. Famous and high-tech. D. Fully-explored and imaginative.

35. What will the archeologists do next？

A. Continue to explore the unknown. B. Study the documentary carefully.

C. Upgrade the LiDAR technology. D. Build a massive urban network.
