I appreciated my secretary Sara’s hard work, 13 her non-emergency ―urgent‖ calls were driving me crazy!
I walked past the switchboard where Sara sat. ―I’m out. Hold my calls.‖ ―But what if it’s an urgent 14 ?‖ Sara asked in a serious voice.
“Take a message,‖ I said. ―I’ll 15 it as soon as I get back.‖ I then headed out the door.
When I finally got back to the office, I had a headache. There on my desk was a bright orange sticky note. ―Urgent Message! Please take action 16 ,‖ it said.

―That’s awful! Who took the message?‖ asked the other.
―Sara did, but she doesn’t 19 who she gave the message to. And what’s worse, the child didn’t show up for school today!‖
I 20 . Could they be talking about my ―urgent message‖? I dug in my wastebasket until I found the orange sticky note: ―School Nurse at Lee Middle. Reporting possible child abuse. Please call before school closes.‖

―Sara doesn’t remember putting this message in my box. I could 22 I never got it!‖ I told myself. Then I 23 my eyes. I knew what I must do. Tightly holding the orange sticky note, I knocked on the door. Sara’s face relaxed as I began to explain.
Weeks later, I opened a file and found a note in Jean’s handwriting: ―Ann Matthews is hard working. In the
area of social work, mistakes are sometimes made. Ann’s greatest strength is her willingness to take 24 .‖
Now, I keep an orange sticky note on my desk to 25 me.

B
We were extremely poor. We had no house, no food. We had nothing. My parents had many problems. My family was always on the edge of violence. It was unbelievably stressful. There wasn't a moment to relax during my entire childhood.
I wanted to be an artist when I was about six. But my family was so poor that I got knocked off track by the working-class educational system and the environment I was living in. I became a street gang member, causing trouble and fighting against other groups.
Being a teenager with vivid imagination, a strong sense of adventure and some degree of courage, it was attractive to steal cars, drive them away, and get chased by the police.
If I had nothing to do, I would go to evening school to learn painting. I tried to enter one of those art schools, but I was rejected by 11 schools when they heard I had been a street gang member. When I was not accepted, I cried a lot.
When I was finally accepted by Croydon College of Art, I felt I was in heaven. I felt that my life had been saved. I worked with great stress that other students found scary, and it scared me too. Unlike other students I could also feel a kind of happiness to do my best to realize my dream.
I went through a long period in my life where my art was not accepted. The only time I almost considered giving up was one morning, about 3 a.m. I had an exhibition in New York. I could sell none of my works. I could not afford to live. I was so defeated. I thought maybe I should go somewhere in the middle of America and find a new job, have a car and a house with a garage. That lasted about an hour, but it was such a stressful experience. Now I'm famous, and I got a lot of my works sold at a pretty high price. I think before one is famous, one has to be infamous, and before one is accepted, one has to be rejected. Painting doesn't explain itself. Painting is not an explanation. Painting doesn't try to teach. Painting is a body of experiences. Painting is called a hard business. One has to have firm beliefs. And I do. One has to have courage to be an artist because one has got to put up with all the insults one has to suffer as an artist. So one has to persist, in other words, to have a little hope. 30. The childhood of the author was ________.
A. happy B. relaxing C. boring D. painful
31. According to the passage, why was the author rejected by so many schools? A. Because he couldn’t paint well. B. Because he had no imagination. C. Because he often caused trouble. D. Because he couldn’t afford the fee.
32. What does the underlined word ― that ‖ in Para. 6 refer to? A. The time when I stayed in New York. B. The idea of giving up painting. C. The unsuccessful exhibition. D. The hard period of my life.
