But Guido Daniele creates fantastic paintings of birds, elephants, tigers, and giraffes by painting on skin. Born in Soverato, Italy, Guido Daniele has been called “Hand Gogh” (after artist Vincent van Gogh) since he began creating works of art on people’s hands in 1990.Painting on the hands can be a challenge because, unlike canvas, the skin moves when rubbed. Daniele’s models must remain perfectly still for hours as he paints. He often uses his daughter and his son as his “canvases”.Before he can begin to create his “manimals”(the artist’s name for his hand animals), Daniele studies photographs of the animal that he will be painting in order to be able to understand its character and give it life. “Next,” he says, “I look at the hand from different perspectives(视角), and I begin to imagine what is the best way to position the hand for me to paint the animal.” He also studies the skin of the model, preferring it to have little hair and few blemishes(瑕疵).Daniele starts by drawing on the model’s hand with a pencil. He next paints the skin using watercolors made specifically for body art. The eyes of Daniele’s painted animals look amazingly real, and they are the most difficult part to paint.Paintings on hands must eventually be washed away. Guido Daniele says that he’s gotten used to this part and that he doesn’t really mind seeing his work washed down the drain(排水沟). “Tomorrow, I will paint the next one. The important thing is to take many good photographs before washing the hand!”5. Daniele’s paintings are mainly about .A. sceneryB. plantsC. storiesD. animals6. In Paragraph 3 the author mainly tells us .A. what Daniele needs to do before paintingB. why Daniele chooses to paint “manimals”C. how Daniele develops his own style of paintingD. how Daniele paints on the skin of his models7. How does Daiele feel about the fact that his paintings must be washed away?A. He feels disappointed at this.B. He cares little about this.C. He is satisfied to see this.D. He in fact can’t acce pt this.8. What do we learn about Daniele from the passage?A. His real name is Hand Gogh.B. His works are mainly drawn with pencils.C. He is an artist who paints on hands.D. He often asks his wife to be his model.CTrees are useful to man in three important ways: they give him wood and other useful things, they give him cool places, and they help to stop drought a nd flood.Unluckily, in many parts of the world, man has not found that the third of t hese points is the most important. Man wants to make money from trees,so h e has cut them down in large numbers, only to find that without them he has lo st the best friends he had. And also, he is usually too careless to plant and loo k after new trees. So the forests slowly disappear.This does not only mean that man will have fewer trees. The results are e ven worse: for where there are trees, their roots break up soil-make the rain in -and also bind the soil, thus stopping it from being washed away easily; but w here there are no trees, the rain falls on hard ground and flows away, causing floods and carrying away the rich top-soil. When all the top-soil is gone, nothing is left but useless desert.9.The most important points of trees to man is ________.A. they help him to make moneyB. they give him coolC. they give him wood and other thingsD. they help him to stop drought and floods10.In many places forests slowly disappear because ________ .A. many trees have been cut down by manB. new trees are not well looked afterC. man has not paid enough attention to planting treesD. all the abovend becomes desert after all trees are cut down because ________ .A roots of trees break up the soilB. there are too many rainfallsC. strong winds bring a lot of sandD. there are no longer trees to keep the rain and protect the top-soil.DBelieve it or not, some high school students are interested in more than daily popularity contests. In fact, a group of Colorado teens want to help others by starting a revolution — where friendships matter.Eight years ago, Brad Thomas, a language arts teacher at Grand Junction’s Central High School, began supporting The Revolution Group, a loosely organized, extracurricular(课外的)group with the slogan “Loving others one person at a time, forever.”“We do things in small and big ways to love people,” Thomas says. “That might be putting your hand on some body’s shoulder if they are having a bad day, smiling at somebody in the hall who looks unhappy, opening a door for s omebody, picking up somebody’s books.”Seven months ago, students at the higb school started to go to the community(社区), surrounding Kimwood Park, and area of nearby Clifton, Colo, sometimes referred to as “Little Beirut” because of the neighborhood’s viol entcrime.Each Wednesday, The Revolution Group students pack donated food for a “backpack program,” distributing(分配)weekend food to nearly 700 children in need. On Sundays, students and other volunteers may bag more donated food and set up for a meal for those in the area. Then breaking up into groups, the students help distribute the remaining donations throughout the Clifton neighborhood, visiting and in viting the neighbors to a community meal in Kimwood Park. After the meal, the students and Clifton children play games or do other interesting things.Shylo Gallegos, an 18 –year-old senior, says he wishes he had become one of its members earlier.“If students in the first year went to volunteer like this, our school would be a lot different,” Shylo Galle gos says. And, he says, besides giving him a way to help others, The Revolution Group has made him feel better about his own life: He says he used to be the kid who sat in the back of the class and didn’t have many friends and didn’t really like anybody.“When I really became part of The Revolution Group, it got me out of my shell,” he says.12.
