Fujio, born on December 1, 1933, in Toyama, Japan, is one of the most famous manga (日本漫画) artists in the world. His real name was Hiroshi Fujimoto, but he is widely known by his pen name, Fujiko F. Fujio. He is best remembered as the creator of Doraemon, a beloved cartoon character that has w___51___ the hearts of millions of children and adults worldwide. Fujiko’s journey to becoming a manga artist began at a young age. W___52___ his love for drawing, he decided to pursue a career in manga. However, it wasn’t an easy thing to do. He faced many c___53___ before his big break. The idea for Doraemon came about in the late 1960s, during a period when Fujiko was trying to find new ideas. At that time, he was interested in science fiction and robots, which l___54___ to the creation of a robot cat from the future named Doraemon. This character was designed to help a young boy named Nobita Nobi with his everyday problems. The first Doraemon comic was published in 1969, and it quickly gained attention. The story of Doraemon touched on many themes, i___55___ friendship, problem-solving, and the importance of doing one’s best.

Answer the questions：(12分) 根据短文内容回答下列问题 Taking Pictures or Taking Notes? In a class last December, I wrote some directions on the blackboard for students about their final examination. One young girl quickly took a picture of the board using her smartphone. When I looked in her direction, she apologized, “Sorry. Was it wrong to take a picture?” “I can’t read my own handwriting,” she explained. “It’s best if I take a picture of your writing so I can understand the notes.” Those words started a heated discussion about taking a picture instead of taking notes. Some took pictures of notes because they knew their phones were a safe place to store material. They might lose paper, they thought, but they wouldn’t lose their phones. Some took photos because they wanted to record exactly what had been written on the blackboard. Others told me that during class, they would like to listen to the discussion attentively. Taking notes would distract them from important information. It may be convenient to use cameras as note takers. Yet it does raise some questions about the classroom. Is a picture as effective a replacement for the process of note-taking? Teachers encourage students to take notes because the act of doing so not only records necessary information but also helps prepare the way of understanding. Encouraging students to take notes seems to be an old-fashioned teaching method. But a method with a long history doesn’t mean it’s out of date. Writing things down makes a student’s brain take an active part in class, according to a study. The act of writing down information enables a person to begin keeping it in mind, and to process and combine it. Taking a picture does record the information. However, taking a picture deletes (删除) some of the necessary brain activities like ________ and ________ that notetaking is rich in. So can the two be equally effective? 58. Did the young girl take notes about the directions on the blackboard or take a picture of the board? _________________________________________________________________________ 59. How did the young girl feel when the writer looked in her direction? _________________________________________________________________________ 60. How many reasons did the students give for preferring to take pictures instead of notes in Para.3? _________________________________________________________________________ 61 Why do the teachers encourage students to take notes? _________________________________________________________________________ 62. Complete the sentence: However, taking a picture deletes some of the necessary brain activities like ________ (≤5 words) and ________ (<5 words) that notetaking is rich in. 63. Which way do you prefer, taking pictures in class or traditional note-taking? Why? _________________________________________________________________________ VII. Writing (作文) (共20分) 64.
