“Just because you can’t see something, that doesn’t mean it’s not there. ”

This old saying is quite meaningful for British sculptor Willard. The items he creates are so small that most of them fit on the head of a pin. You can see them clearly only through a microscope.

Many people want to own his art pieces. He’s been honored by the Queen of England for his great art achievements. At every one of his exhibitions, the question is always the same. __________

The answer is very, very carefully. So carefully, in fact, that he actually slows his breathing down and works in between breaths. Willard usually works under a microscope using special tools that he creates. To paint his works, he uses the hair from a fly as a paintbrush.

Creating these detailed works is a very long and difficult process, and it isn’t always enjoyable. “It is a terrible dream when I start but a nice dream when I finish,” he says. A single item can take at least several weeks to complete, which usually sit on a pin. Even the sound caused by traffic outside can influence Willard’s work, so he often works through the night.

People have asked Willard why he chose to do something that needed effort and took time. His interest in creating small things began when he was five. He started creating houses and playgrounds for ants. Willard was not a strong student. He had difficulty in reading and spelling words. Some kids used to call him a loser. This made him feel small, so focusing on little things helped him to feel big. The smaller his work got, the bigger he felt. A newspaper reporter said, “Willard has shown the world that he is special. Though his works are small, he is great. ”

32. Why is the sentence “Just because you can’t see something, that doesn’t mean it’s not there. ” mentioned at the beginning of the passage?

A．To lead in Willard and his special work.

B．To introduce the tool of creating something small.

C．To advise people to experience Willard’s dream.

D．To show how to see something through a microscope.

33. Which question is the most suitable for the blank at the end of the Paragraph 2?

A．How does he do it?	B．Why does he do it?
C．What does he do?	D．When does he do it?

34. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 mean?

A．The single item.	B．The long process.
C．The terrible dream.	D．The detailed work.

35. What is the last paragraph mainly about?

A．The suggestions for reporting a sculptor.

B．The steps of creating these detailed works.

C．The reasons for doing something difficult.

D．The difficulties in reading and spelling words.

Have you ever eaten something that you grew in your own garden? Many people have not had the pleasure of this experience. Alice Waters, the owner of Chez Panisse Restaurant, set out to change all that for a special group of students at Martin Luther King Junior Middle School in Berkeley, California.

Waters worked with the school’s principal（校长）, Neil Smith, to create a cooking and gardening programme at school. Waters believe in the importance of people knowing where their food comes from. She also believes that there is a strong relationship between food, health and the environment. She wanted to show children the pleasure in gardening and in preparing the foods that they grew. She wanted to teach them that a healthy body and a healthy environment go hand in hand.

The project that Waters began took a lot of time and patience. Teachers, students and community volunteers helped her turn a parking area into a garden. At the same time, renovation（整修）was begun to turn an old cafeteria（自助餐厅） into a kitchen where students could prepare foods and share meals with their teachers.

In 1995, the first crops were planted. Every year since then, new crops are evaluated（评价） to make sure that they are best suited for the environment an the needs of the school.

Students have found that they look forward to the time they spend in the garden each week.

They have learnt how to grow and harvest. They have leant about the life cycles of various plants.

Alice Waters dreams that one day there will be a garden in every school in the United States. She hopes that school lunches can be prepared using the produce from the gardens.
