While she has a full-time job doing wedding makeup, her real passion lies in painting real-life people into cartoon characters!‎ The 26-year-old artist said that her love for comics began as a child – she would spend hours drawing after school. She also picked up all her makeup skills growing up. “In high school instead of studying I spent a lot of time practicing and doing friends makeup,” she said.‎ Although Moseley has been painting faces for over two years, she recently started doing the comic-style makeup that has made her so popular. “When I first did it, I posted some of my work on my Facebook page and my friends and my brother really liked it,” she said.‎ Each comic transformation takes her about a couple of hours to complete. So far, her favorite transformation was when she painted herself to look like Captain Planet. “Captain Planet was my way of paying tribute to (称赞) my brother and all his support for my art.” she said.‎ ‎“My favorite reaction will always be my dad’s after I painted myself,” she added. “When I sent him the picture and he asked me who it was. After I told him it was me, the shock that was on his face was priceless, even more when he was curious about where I got the suit, and I replied I had painted it as well.” Moseley said that she dreams of doing movie makeup someday, but for now, she is addicted to cosplay. “Turning into my favorite characters each night just became fun,” she added.‎ ‎21.

However, some believe that taking selfies is causing people to take unnecessary risks that in some cases are proving to be deadly!‎ So how bad is the problem? According to recent news reports, taking an “exciting” selfies has killed 12 people this year. Thought that may not seem like a lot, it is four more than the eight people that have died from shark attacks.‎ While the problem has been known for a while, it came to a head following the accidental death of Hideto Ueda at the Taj Mahal in Agra. The 66-year-old Japanese was trying to take a selfie when he fell down some stairs. He passed away soon after a head injury.‎ The rising number of injuries is forcing governments to take some measures. The Russian Interior Ministry has begun a nationwide program to warn its young people about the dangers of taking selfies. The program’s slogan is: “Even a million ‘likes’ on social networking websites are not worth your life and well-being.”‎ Though no other country has followed their lead, many are banning the tool that has led to the rise in injuries – the selfie stick. In the last few months, many museums and Parks including Disney have banned their use.‎ While these measures may help, the only way to stop selfie-related injuries and deaths is to encourage everyone to take responsibility – not just for themselves, but also, their friends. So the next time you or your best friends decide to take a selfie that appears a little risky, be sure to stop and ask yourself, “Is it worth it?”‎ ‎25. The underlined word “selfies” in Paragraph 1 probably means__________.‎ A. a photograph B. a cellphone C. an invent D. a risk ‎ ‎26. The author quotes the accident of Hideto Ueda mainly to tell us ________.‎ ‎ A. the pity injured aged was 66 years old B. the Japanese prefer to take selfie ‎ C. selfie can be deadly without taking care D. Taj Mahal is an attractive place ‎27. What can we infer from the text? ‎ A. It is not worth taking selfie everywhere because it is dangerous. ‎ B. Many governments have taken measures to call people’s attention.‎ C. Shark attacking is the most serious reason to make people killed.‎ ‎ D. So attractive is the Selfie that people easily ignore the risks around.‎ ‎28. What is the best tile for the text?‎ A. Take measures to keep safe. B. Watch out for selfie.‎ C. Ask yourself for excitement. D. Take responsibility.‎ C Most big stars get their first chance after countless attempts but some of the biggest names just happened to be in the right place at the right time. Without that first spark of luck we may have never seen some of these big names in the headlines.‎ Justin Bieber ‎ Justin Bieber is one of the biggest popular stars in the music industry.

If Bieber can do it, then anyone can!‎ Natalie Portman ‎ ‎ Don’t you just hate it when you are sitting down and trying to enjoy a particularly good slice of pizza when you are asked if you want to be a model? When Natalie was just eleven, that problem happened to her. Respectfully, she expressed her enthusiasm (热情) for being an actor; then she got the chance to play a challenging role in Leon: the Professional. After that she put more effort into her schooling as she wasn’t satisfied until she got a psychology degree from Harvard, which she uses to try and identify with her characters more genuinely. ‎ Will Smith ‎ ‎ Will Smith wasn’t born to be a famous actor. He used to be a rapper and was facing both heavy debt and severe depression. When Will Smith was lost on his way to an audition (试唱面试), the person he asked for direction just happened to be a big name working at NBC who thought that he would be great in a sitcom (情景喜剧).
