• 17．Architecture is amazing.It has changed the way I look and interact with the world and my environment.It has trained me to be hyper-sensitive （過度敏感） to the built environment，to recognize problems and find solutions that an untrained eye would never notice.
     As much as I love this profession，it is very easy to get lost in architecture.I get so focused that I have forgotten about everything else.Luckily my passion for cycling kept me sane （清醒的） while I was becoming an architect.I faced a lot of obstacles and challenges taking a bicycle ride across the United States.Looking back，cycling across the America was actually one of the smartest things I ever did.
     I have actually bicycled across the continental USA twice；East to west.Atlantic Ocean to Pacific Ocean，both times.Bicycling across America isn't as hard as you think.
     I rode alone on my first trip in 2005 from Virginia Beach to the coast of Florence，Oregon.In the end it was 4，547 miles over the course of 77 days.
     I left for the second trip in 2007 with my two best friends from Bar Harbor，Maine to Portland，Oregon，which was a 4，886 mile ride over 90 days.At that time，I fell in love with the idea of leaving the east coast behind，starting a whole new life and career in a new city.I ended up in Portland.After arriving in town on a bike，I eventually found a job，a place to live and an amazing dog.
     I share all this not to convince anyone to go biking across America，but only to share how doing this has changed my life.Architecture has given me a wonderful life and career but it isn't everything.Thankfully I have also been very passionate about：my friends，traveling，bicycles ，punk rock，technology，the internet，my dog，and even yoga.My architecture background has definitely sweetened my relationship with all those things.
     Becoming an architect is a noble pursuit，but you should keep pursuing everything else that you are passionate about.It will enhance your architecture career and ultimately make you a more interesting person，which in my opinion is really more important than being another silly architect.

• 18．    You've heard that plastic is polluting the oceans — between 4.8 and 12.7 million tons enter ocean ecosystems every year.But does one plastic straw （吸管） or cup really make a difference？Artist Benjamin Von Wong wants you to know that it does.He builds massive sculptures out of plastic garbage，forcing viewers to re-examine their relationship to single-use plastic products.
     At the beginning of the year，the artist built a piece called "Strawpocalypse，" a pair of 10-foot-tall plastic waves，frozen mid-crash.Made of 168，000 plastic straws collected from several volunteer beach cleanups，the sculpture made its first appearance at the Estella Place shopping center in Ho Chi Minh City，Vietnam.
     Just 9% of global plastic waste is recycled.Plastic straws are by no means the biggest source of plastic pollution，but they've recently come under fire because most people don't need them to drink with and，because of their small size and weight，they cannot be recycled.Every straw that's part of Von Wong's artwork likely came from a drink that someone used for only a few minutes.Once the drink is gone，the straw will take centuries to disappear.
     In a piece from 2018，Von Wong wanted to illustrate a specific statistic：Every 60 seconds，a truckload's worth of plastic enters the ocean.For this work，titled "Truckload of Plastic，" Von Wong and a group of volunteers collected more than 10，000 pieces of plastic，which were then tied together to look like they'd been dumped （傾倒） from a truck all at once.
     Von Wong hopes that his work will also help pressure big companies to reduce their plastic footprint.
  
  （1）What are Von Wong's artworks intended for？

  
  A．Beautifying the city he lives in.
  B．Introducing eco-friendly products.
  C．Calling for environment protection.
  D．Reducing garbage on the beach.
  （2）Why does the author discuss plastic straws in Paragraph 3？

  
  A．To show the difficulty of their recycling.
  B．To explain why they are useful.
  C．To voice his views on modern art.
  D．To find a replacement for them.
  （3）What effect would "Truckload of Plastic" have on viewers？

  
  A．Calming.
  B．Disturbing.
  C．Relaxing.
  D．Challenging.
  （4）What does the text mainly focus on？

  
  A．Artists' opinions on plastic safety.
  B．Media interest in contemporary art.
  C．Artworks of transformed plastic waste.
  D．Responsibility demanded of big companies.
