He drew the horses very well, but he always began the tail. Now it is the Western rule to begin at the head of the horse, that is why I was surprised. It struck me that it could not really make any difference w 49 the artist begins at the head or the tail or the belly (肚子) or the foot of the horse, if he really knows his business. And most great artists who really know their business do not follow other people’s rule. They make their own r 50 . Every one of them does his work in a way peculia r(奇特的) to himself; and the peculiarity means only that he f 51 it more easy to work in that way. Now the very same thing is true to literature (文学). And the q 52 “How shall I begin?” only means that you want to begin at the head i 53 of beginning at the tail or somewhere else. That is, you are not yet experienced (有经验的) e 54 to trust to your own powers. When you become more experienced you will never ask the question, and I think that you will often begin at the tail —that is to say, you will write the e 55 of the story before you have even thought of the beginning. 八、任务型阅读 A Wonderful Christmas Gift Christmas was so close, and so was Ann’s birthday.

Recently she was working overtime and looked pale and worn out. Soon it was Christmas Eve. In everyone’s house there was a decorated Christmas tree, but Ann’s house was cold and empty. Every child went to bed eagerly waiting for the lovely gifts. Ann went to bed, wishing that at least this time she would get a gift from Santa Claus. Ann slowly drifted off to sleep. She dreamed of Santa riding in the snow... The next morning Ann jumped up after hearing her alarm. Out of her expectation, there lay a beautiful packet tied with a red ribbon near her bed. Inside the package was a pretty white dress with fluffy frills and attractive lace! Ann checked the gift carefully to find out who had given her this beautiful dress. Suddenly a small piece of paper fell out from the dress. Dear Ann,This dress is gifted to you for being a good girl. Hope you continue to do good things and help your mother. Your Loving friend, Santa Claus Ann felt that there was something familiar about this note. She looked into the note carefully. Then it struck her. She realized that . Her mother had worked overtime to save money to buy this expensive gift. Ann was happy beyond words. She knew that she was the luckiest girl to have been given the best Christmas gift. 56．What did Ann want for Christmas? 57．Why did Ann feel out of the conversations of her classmates? 58．Ann was only worried about her Christmas gift, wasn’t she? 59．How was Ann’s house different from other people’s houses on Christmas Eve? 60．Complete the sentence in the last paragraph.

He drew the horses very well, but he always began the tail. Now it is the Western rule to begin at the head of the horse, that is why I was surprised. It struck me that it could not really make any difference w 49 the artist begins at the head or the tail or the belly (肚子) or the foot of the horse, if he really knows his business. And most great artists who really know their business do not follow other people’s rule. They make their own r 50 . Every one of them does his work in a way peculia r(奇特的) to himself; and the peculiarity means only that he f 51 it more easy to work in that way. Now the very same thing is true to literature (文学). And the q 52 “How shall I begin?” only means that you want to begin at the head i 53 of beginning at the tail or somewhere else. That is, you are not yet experienced (有经验的) e 54 to trust to your own powers. When you become more experienced you will never ask the question, and I think that you will often begin at the tail —that is to say, you will write the e 55 of the story before you have even thought of the beginning. 【答案】49．(w)hether 50．(r)ules 51．(f)inds 52．(q)uestion 53．(i)nstead 54．(e)nough 55．(e)nd 【导语】本文主要讲述了我们要相信自己的能力。 49．句意：我突然想到，如果一个艺术家真正懂得自己的工作，他从马的头、马的尾、马的腹、马的脚开始画，其实并没有什么区别。根据“the artist begins at the head or the tail or the belly（肚子）or the foot of the horse”和首字母提示可知，whether...or...“无论是……还是……”符合句意，故填(w)hether。 50．句意：他们制定自己的规则。根据“And most great artists who really know their business do not follow other people’s rule.”和首字母提示可知，艺术家自己制定规则，rules符合句意，故填(r)ules。 51．句意：他们每个人都以自己独特的方式工作；这种特殊性只意味着他发现用这种方式工作更容易。根据“it more easy to work in that way”和首字母提示可知，觉得用这种方式工作更容易，句子时态是一般现在时，主语是单数，finds符合句意，故填(f)inds。 52．句意：“我该如何开始?”这个问题只意味着你想从头部开始，而不是从尾部或其他地方开始。根据“How shall I begin?”和首字母提示可知，这是一个问题，qustion符合句意，故填(q)uestion。 53．句意：“我该如何开始?”这个问题只意味着你想从头部开始，而不是从尾部或其他地方开始。根据“of beginning at the tail”和首字母提示可知，不想从尾部或其他地方开始，instead of符合句意，故填(i)nstead。 54．句意：也就是说，你还没有足够的经验去相信自己的能力。根据“you are not yet experienced”和首字母提示可知，没有足够的经验，enough符合句意，故填(e)nough。 55．句意：当你变得更有经验时，你永远不会问这个问题，我认为你会经常从结尾开始——也就是说，你甚至在想到开头之前就写了故事的结尾。根据“I think that you will often begin at the tail”和首字母提示可知，在想到开头之前就写了故事的结尾，end符合句意，故填(e)nd。 八、任务型阅读 A Wonderful Christmas Gift Christmas was so close, and so was Ann’s birthday.
