They are a mirror of ourselves.” Here, Schult was talking about his 1,000 trash sculptures in the form of humans. He first exhibited them in 2019 in the western German state of North Rhine-Westphalia.“They are social sculptures,” he explains. “They are not only sculptures for eyes. They are sculptures to spread the idea that we live in a time of garbage.”So far , Schult’s social sculptures have been on show in Paris, in Moscow’s Red Square, on the Great Wall of China, and in the desert next to the Pyramids of Giza near Cairo.HA Schult’s work is unforgettable. Although his work has had a big influence on the art world, Schult remains modest(谦虚的) about his creations: “Artists have to learn every time. We are not important. All that counts is the time in which we are living.”Trash art has been around for years. But it seems that only the popular artists are regarded as true artists when working with trash. Why can’t common people be considered artists when they use the same things and change them into some form of personal art? Maybe it’s because we all have our own preset(预设的) ideas of what art is and isn’t, or whom artists are of should be.You can be an artist like Schult if you try. Look at used metal cans. What might be done with them？Imagine them in any number of new uses, or picture them simply as an art form. What about boxes or clothing? Boxes can usually serve as new storage containers and houses for pets. And clothing? Imagine talking old clothes and turningthem into hats or hanging organizers.4. What do we know about Schult’s sculptures?A. They serve as garbage containers.B. They reflect environmental issues.C. They were first shown in Paris, France.D. They are to raise economic awareness.5. HA Schult’s artistic works convey the message that an artist must ________.A. be socially responsibleB. be as modest as possibleC. make garbage recyclableD. take diverse artistic forms6. According to the last two paragraphs, the author probably agrees that ________.A. it takes talent to be a trash artistB. preset ideas are important to artistsC. trash art can’t be seen as a real art formD. average people can also make trash artists7. Which of the following is the best title for the text?A. Could You Be a Trash Artist?B. What Are Social Sculptures?C. Do You Know about Trash Art?D. How Can W e Deal with Used Cans?CDennis Sinar, 51, a doctor from New York, is quick to explain why he took a year-long break from his job. “I was pretty burned out after practicing medicine for 26 years. I needed a recharge.” So he took a “gap year”, from July 2019 to June 2019, to explore things like ancient buildings, and traditional Eastern medicine, in locations including Alaska, Nepal and Romania.“Taking a break from work is an excellent way for adults to go into a new career or refresh an old one,” said Holly Bull, president of Princeton, N, J. “In recent years, mid-career breaks have been gainin g more interest,” she said. A report on adult gap years published this year by a market research company also described the potential American market for gap years as a “sleeping giant.”“A gap year is a challenge for the older individual to step out of a comfort zone and take a risk. I enjoyed that side most.” said Dr. Sinar, who kept a daily blog about his experience. His time studying Eastern medicine “assured the reasons I went into health care,” said Dr. Sinar, who returned to practice medicine at his old job, although he works fewer days. “I use those experiences to provide my patients with more care,” he added. “And I listen better than I did before.”George Garritan, chairman of the Department of Leadership and Human CapitalManagement at New York University, certainly agrees with Dr. Sinar. He said a gap-year experience could be worthwhile for employees and companies. For employees, investing in themselves and improving skill sets is a move that will benefit throughout their career. He added that returning employees feel refreshed and have given more thought to their career. For companies, offering unpaid leaves makes good sense for attracting and keeping talented employees.8. Dr. Sinar took a gap year because he ______.A. had lost his old jobB. wanted to refresh after 26 years’ workC. had a desire for travellingD. became interested in historical research9. The phrase “sleeping giant” (in 2nd paragraph) indicates that ______.A. it’s too early for people to accept the concept of gap ye arB. the effect of gap year policy remains to be seenC. it’s difficult to foresee the gap year marketD. more American people will accept the gap year policy10. What’s George Garritan’s attitude toward the “gap year”?A. Positive.B. DoubtfulC. Uninterested.D. Uncertain.11. What’s the passage mainly about?A. How an adult plans a mid-career gap year.B. Why a gap year is worthwhile for adults.C. Whether a gap year is popular with adults.D. Why a gap year is challenging for individuals.DMusic icon Bob Dylan will not attend the Nobel ceremony in December because he has other commitments, the Swedish Academy said on Wednesday.“The Swedish Academy received a personal letter from Bob Dylan yesterday where he explained that he could not make himself available in December...,”it said in a statement.“He wishes that he could accept the award personally, but other commitments make it unfortunately impossible.
