            • 1． （2015•日照模拟）The International Painting Contest on Google’s homepage in 2015 may look pretty strange，but it spotlightings a very serious issue：clean water，which is unusual for an 11-year-old from Long Island．
              Audrey Zhang，a fifth-grader from Levittown，N．Y，is the winner of this year’s Doodle 4Google contest，rising to the top of some 100，000entries on the theme of“draw one thing to make the world a better place．”
              Her piece，titled“Back to Mother Nature，”describes a detailed water-cleaning machine．Zhang worked with a team of artists at Google to animate（使…生动）her drawing．
              “To make the world a better place，I came up with a transformative water purifier，a machine used to remove dirty or harmful substances，”Google quoted Zhang as saying．“It takes in dirty and polluted water from rivers，lakes and even oceans，then massively transforms the water into clean，safe and pure water．When humans and animals drink this water，they will live a healthier life．”
              She created a whole world around the device-one populated by humans，a whale in a top hat and dragons．
              Zhang，s piece is“so vivid and so rich and so full and so complete，”Google Doodle team leader Ryan Germick told the Washington Post．“Every leaf seemed to have life in it．”
              Along with having her artwork featured on Google’s homepage，Zhang wins a 30，000 dollars college scholarship．In addition，her school will receive a 50，000dollars Google for Education technology grant，and the company is donating 20，000dollars in her name to a charity devoted to bringing clean water to schools in Bangladesh．On Sunday，the night before her work was revealed on net，Zhang told Newsday she was excited by the big win，but said she wouldn't be awake when her art first went online at midnight．
              “I have school-tomorrow，so I can’t stay up late，”she told the paper．

              25．What’s the passage mainly about？    
              A．The winner and her work in the painting contest．
              B．The team of artists at Google to animate drawings．
              C．The painting contest of Google’s homepage in 2015．
              D．The water-cleaning machine in the painting contest．
              26．According to the passage，we know that    ．
              A．Audrey Zhang is creative and self-disciplined
              B．a water-cleaning device was made in the contest
              C．50，000dollars will be donated in Audrey Zhang’s name

              C．breakaway from

            • 2． After having worked in the University of Maryland for three years，I got a job offer from another university---Lynn University．I left my letter of offer on my present boss's desk，turned around，and closed the door quietly．I was expecting a call from my boss saying congratulations，which would show her approval of my leaving．
              In the afternoon，my boss called me，saying，"Can we meet tomorrow？"That was a good signal．The next day，I met with my boss．She said，'Nicholas，we want you．What do you want？"I said，"Boss，I deserve a significant pay raise this year due to my outstanding performance．I think I need a 10% pay raise next year as a condition for me to stay here．"My boss said，"No problem．''
              When I left her office，I called Lynn University and told them that I was going to get a 10% pay raise．They had to give me 10% more than their original pay offer in order for me to accept the job．The new boss told me that he was willing to give me more，but I would feel very bad working at this university with such a high pay．I would win a battle，but I would lose a war．He said，"The problem is that your colleague will earn less than you，so you will feel guilty（内疚）and uncomfortable．But，I can still give you 5% more than the original offer．"
              I delivered this massage to my present boss，and she told me that she would give me another 5% pay raise if I promised to refuse this new job offer．On top of that，she would strongly support my early promotion（晋升）from assistant professor to associate professor．According to the university policy，you must take at least 6years to get promoted．That was my third year of employment at this university．After refusing the new job offer，I finally enjoyed both a pay raise and early promotion．
              24．In paragraph 2，what does Nicholas mean by"That was a good signal"？    
              A．His boss would approve his leaving the University of Maryland．
              B．He would leave his present job and work for Lynn University．
              C．His boss would talk with him about a possible pay offer．
              D．His friends would congratulate him on getting a new job offer．
              25．Why did the new boss agree to another 5% raise when Nicholas asked for 10% the next day？    
              A．He did not have the right to make such a big pay offer．
              B．he did not want Nicholas to earn more than he did．
              C．Nicholas was not experienced enough to get such a raise．
              D．Nicholas would not feel good for earning too much more than others．
              26．How much pay raise did the author finally get as a result of refusing the new job offer？    
              A.5%      B.10%     C.15%     D.20%
