And what could you do for it? Huang Yongfu gave his answer. Huang and his wife lived in a village. After he stopped working in the 1970s, Huang had a lot of free time. He started painting lovely animals on the walls of his house for fun. Later, his neighbors asked him to paint their houses, too. His paintbrush brought a second “life” to the boring houses. In 1998, the village was to be pulled down because many villagers left. To save it, Huang decided to paint every street in the village. The old man covered every street, wall and door in the village with lovely colors. In 2010, some university students happened to pass by the village. They were struck by Huang’s cute artwork. These students then started the “Save Rainbow Village” campaign (运动). It was a success and the area became an art park. Huang himself began to be famous as Grandpa Rainbow. Now, Rainbow Village has become a famous place for tourists. It welcomes more than a million people every year. Grandpa Rainbow finally made his dream come true. He saved his village. Although Grandpa Rainbow left us on January 23, 2024, people will remember him forever. 21．What is the purpose of the two questions at the beginning of the passage? A．To find the answers.

C．He asked the university students for help. D．He started the “Save Rainbow Village” campaign. 25．What would be the best title for the passage? A．A Successful Campaign B．A Story Behind a Rainbow C．Grandpa Rainbow is Famous D．When a Village Meets Art B Nine years ago, I moved to a city in East Yorkshire with my family, because I got a new job there. Since then, I have been busy with my job. I didn’t go back to my hometown until last month. When I got off the bus, I could hardly find the way to my house. With the help of a policeman, I finally found my house where I had lived for about twenty years. My house with a small garden was in the middle of the fields. There are many houses around it now. The small garden is now a bar. Many people talk with friends and drink wine there. All of my neighbors and friends in my childhood had moved to other places. I didn’t meet anyone I knew. It made me lonely. The town center is completely different, too. The old market has disappeared. Now there is a big shopping center there. Even the old white building where I went to learn how to play chess has been replaced (取代) with a meeting center. The butcher’s shop where we got fresh meat in the mornings is now a bookshop. The quiet streets I used to walk on are now filled with cars and people. Some old trees have been cut down to build wider roads and new stores. The small park where I used to fly kites with my father has become a parking lot. My hometown has changed so much that it makes me surprised. Although I didn’t know anyone well, it is still a fascinating place because I love my hometown deeply. 26．What were around the writer’s house before he moved away? A．Mountains. B．Houses. C．Rivers.

Even the old white building where I went to learn how to play chess has been replaced (取代) with a meeting center. The butcher’s shop where we got fresh meat in the mornings is now a bookshop. The quiet streets I used to walk on are now filled with cars and people. Some old trees have been cut down to build wider roads and new stores.
