Now it is the Western rule to begin at the head of the horse, that is why I was surprised. It struck me that it could not really make any difference whether the artist begins at the head or the tail or the belly(肚子)or the foot of the horse, if he really knows his business. And most great artists who really know their business do not follow other people's rule. They make their own rules. Every one of them does his work in a way peculiar(奇特的)to himself; and the peculiarity means only that he finds it more easy to work in that way. Now the very same thing is true to literature(文学). And the question, "How shall I begin?" only means that you want to begin at the head instead of beginning at the tail or somewhere else. That is, you are not yet experienced(有经验的)enough to trust to your own powers. When you become more experienced you will never ask the question, and I think that you will often begin at the tail --that is to say, you will write the end of the story before you have even thought of the beginning. 33. A friend of the writer's drew the horses ____. A. very well B. in the way of western rule C. in the way of his own rule D. all of the above 34. The writer was surprised because ____. A. the artist began to draw at the head of the horse B. the artist began to draw at the tail of the horse C. the artist made his own rule D. the artist did not follow other people's rule 35.

A. you don't know where to begin B. you want to begin at the head instead of beginning at the tail C. you always asked question D. you do not trust to your own powers 36. When you become more experienced you will ____. A. never ask question B. often begin at the tail C. should write the end of the story D. should think of the beginning 37. The topic of the passage is ______. A. How to draw a horse B. How to write a story C. How to make your own rules D. Trust to your own powers 阅读文章并回答问题 When she looked ahead, Florence Chadwick saw nothing but a wall of fog. Her body was numb(麻木的). She had been swimming for nearly sixteen hours. Already she was the first woman to swim the English Channel. Now, at the age of 34, she wanted to become the first woman to swim from Catalina Island to the California coast. On the morning of July the fourth in 1952, the seawater was not very cold and the fog was so thick she could hardly see anything. Sharks(鲨鱼)swam around her, only to be driven away by rifle shots. Against the cold of the sea, she never stopped swimming ? hour after hour ? while millions watched on national television. Alongside Florence in one of the boats, her mother and her trainer encouraged her. They told her it wasn’t much farther. But all she could see was fog. They asked her not to give up. She never had ... until then. With only a half mile to go, she asked to be pulled out. Several hours later, she told a reporter, “Look, I’m not excusing myself, but if I could have seen land I might have made it.” It was not fatigue(疲劳)or even the cold water that defeated her. It was the fog. She was unable to see her goal. Two months later, she tried again. This time, no matter how thick the fog was, she swam with her goal clearly pictured in her mind. She knew that somewhere behind that fog was land and this time she made it!
