2．About a decade ago，Lawson was at a beach in Virginia watching his kids build castles right next to the waves.
"I kept trying to get them to come back because I thought it was a terrible idea，" he remarked.He wanted them to build their sandcastles closer to the dunes （沙丘）.But they found it more exciting to build right where the waves hit，seeing their sandcastles get destroyed，and then rebuilding them with whatever debris （殘?。?washed up from the ocean. "It seemed so symbolic，somehow，of how life works more than just building your perfect sandcastles，" said Lawson.When he decided to turn that sunny day into a children's book，the idea came to just use pictures. "It seemed like it would work beautifully without words，" he said.
A Day for Sandcastles is illustrated by Qin Leng.It's the second wordless picture book for Lawson and Leng since 2021's Over the Shop.Leng's illustrations stay pretty true to real life.Three siblings spend the day building sandcastles and watching them get destroyed by a flying hat. "To me it's a celebration of childhood and the simple joys of life.These are the things I like to capture （捕捉），" said Leng.
Leng spent part of her childhood in France，and she was inspired by European comic books "What I love to do when I illustrate a picture book is add side stories to the main storyline.I always think about the readers and the longevity（持久） of the book，and I want them to be able to discover something new every time they revisit the book，" Leng explained.
At the end of the day，the sleepy-eyed kids pile into the bus that will take them home. "Those last pages are some of my favorite.They capture that feeling like at the end of the day on the beach，when it's getting dark and you feel completely exhausted，" Lawson said.It must be a universal childhood feeling：happy with sand，sticky from the salt，hot from the sun，and ready to fall asleep the moment you get into the car.
（1）Why does Lawson mention the scene where the kids built sandcastles？
A．To suggest a way to enjoy leisure.
B．To remind readers of the childhood.
C．To convince us of how life works.
D．To tell us the inspiration for his book.
（2）What do you know about the two books mentioned？
A．They are purchased by kids universally.
B．Readers can only find pictures in them.
C．They carry no elements of comic books.
D．The stories are literally works of fantasy.
（3）How does Lawson feel when telling us the last pages in the last paragraph？

A．Childhood in sandcastles
B．Beautiful childhood memories
C．Popular illustrated books
D．Explore the mystery of nature組卷：11引用：5難度：0.3 -

"What's this — Ben is trying out for Mr.Zuckerman？"
My ears burned at hearing my name.It was Lindsey，the most popular eighth-grader，talking to her friend.I held my breath.She obviously had no clue that my locker was next to Mr.Steven's room；where the tryout schedule for Charlotte's Web was posted.
"What if he ruins the character？He's never acted before，" Lindsey continued.
My stomach tightened.Lindsey was right.Who was I kidding？I'd never been in a play.So what if Mom told me I was a natural when I imitated （模仿） movie stars？Mothers always think you're talented.At lunch I told Trevor，my best friend，that I'd changed my mind.I'd join the technical crew instead.That fit my quiet-kid image better anyway.Trevor shook his head，but he didn't try to change my mind.I was starting to look forward to being on the tech crew.
The cast list （演員表） was finalized.Cindy，a seven-grader，got the part of Charlotte.Trevor was Templeton.And Lindsey was Mrs Zuckerman？And rehearsals （排演） started.I spent Tuesday and Thursday afternoons at school.It was fun to learn all the technical stuff.It was also fun to watch the actors from backstage by visualizing （想象） their moves.By the third week I'd memorized everyone's lines （臺(tái)詞）.My mind just does stuff like that.
And then，only a week before the performance，everything fell apart.The actor to play Mr.Zuckerman crashed his bike and broke his leg.Then his understudy （替補(bǔ)） came down with the flu.Things like this weren't supposed to happen in real life.
Mr.Steven called the cast together. "We cannot get someone else ready by next jye.aiek.We'll have to postpone the play." She frowned. "If the auditorium （禮堂） is booked for later，we may even have to cancel."
Silence fell.Then I heard Trevor's voice. "Ben can do it.He has known all the lines by heart."
Mr.Steven stared at me.I nodded，taking a deep breath，and then spouted out （滔滔不絕地說出） Mr.Zuckerman's longest speech.
Mr.Steven clapped. "All right，Ben，you've saved the show.Cast dismissed for today，but be here the rest of the jye.aiek.We have a lot of work to do."
Lindsey just looked at me，confused.
注意：
（1）續(xù)寫詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右；
（2）請(qǐng)按如下格式在答題卡的相應(yīng)位置作答。
Mr.Steven started us，but on stage I was rather nervous and awkward.
And then it was opening night.
