    Willa Cather once said, "When people ask me whether writing has been a hard or easy
road,I always answer with the famous saying: The end is nothing;the road is all. That is
what I mean when I say writing has been a pleasure. I have never used the computer with
the thought that one more task had to be done."
    Like most writers, Willa Cather did not write books for the money that they brought her,
but rather for the pleasure that came in their writing. Her works were, like her, simple and
full of the vigor of her days in Nebraska, where she grew from child to young womanhood
and where she developed a deep love for the treeless land of the great plain with its wild
flowers, wheat fields and rivers.
    "It"s a rather strange thing about the flat country," she wrote later. "It takes hold of you or
it leaves you perfectly cold. A great many people find it very dull; they like a church tower,
an old factory, a waterfall, the country all made to look like a German Christmas card...But
when I come to the open plain, something happens. I"m home. I breathe differently."
1. Willa Cather wrote because she found writing _____.
[     ]
A. simple and lively
B. opened up a road to success
C. neither too hard nor too easy
D. interesting and enjoyable
2. What was the place like where Cather grew up?
[     ]
A. It was cold,plain and without a church.
B. It was vast,open and flat.
C. It was like a German Christmas card.
D. It was a colorful world of wild flowers.
3. When she said "It takes hold of you or it leaves you perfectly cold.", Willa Cather
    meant that _____.
[     ]
A. you either love the place or hate it
B. you decide either to stay or to leave
C. some find the place warm; others find it cold
D. some find the place peaceful; others find it wild
4. What happens when Cather comes to the open plain?
[     ]
A. She breathes differently from others.
B. She wants to make the place her home.
C. She feels completely comfortable.
D. She finds the place similar to her home.

     The story of Madame Tussaud is as fascinating as that of the exhibition itself. From a housekeeper"s
daughter to a successful business woman, her life has all the marks of a Hollywood blockbuster.
     Madam Tussaud was born in 1761 and named Marie Grosholtz. Her father was killed in battle only two
months before Mane"s birth. For the first five years of her life, Marie lived in Berne with her mother, who
worked as housekeeper for Dr Philippe Curtius. A doctor, with a talent for wax modeling, Curtius became
her teacher.
     It was Curtius who opened the original wax exhibition in Paris in 1770 and introduced Marie to some
famous people. At only 17, she modeled the famous writer Francois Voltaire, followed by a portrait of
American statesman Benjamin Franklin when he was in Paris as US ambassador. Both figures are still on
display at Madame Tussaud"s, London today.
     Her work at Curtius successful wax exhibition led to an invitation to the court of Louis XVI and his
queen. For nine years she lived at the palace of Versailles guiding the artistic education of the king"s sister.
Meanwhile the French Revolution was about to erupt. Aware of the political arrest, Philippe Curtius called
Marie back to Paris. Marie"s connection with the royal family made her guilty. Both she and her mother
were arrested. After she was set free, Marie was forced to make death masks (a death mask is a model of
a dead person"s face, made by coving their face with a soft substance and letting it become hard) of executed
(被处决的) nobles. Many were former friends at court, including her former employers, the king and queen.
     By 1800 Marie was married with two young children and a poor business inherited from Curtius. Madame
Tussaud made the decision to take her exhibition on tour. In 1802, she left France. For the next 33 years,
Madame Tussaud traveled the British Isles, exhibiting her growing collection of portraits. In those pre-television
days, this was the only way most people had direct contact with the famous people of the time. The exhibition
became permanently based in London in 1835, moving to its present site in Marylebone Road in 1884. Her last
work, a remarkable self-portrait that is still on show, was completed only eight years before her death aged 89.

A. Curtius" recommendation
B. her gift for wax modeling

A. how Marie"s was modeling business became successful
B. how Marie balanced her family and work
