A few young people are talking about their dream jobs in the future.

I want to be an actor like Mr Pan when I grow up. Mr Pan isn't tall. He is not good-looking, either. However, he is funny and wise. I hope to bring more joy to people. After all, joy is the best thing in life.

——Dave

I'd like to be an engineer like Bill Gates. He has changed our world with his great inventions. I also want to do something for the world. It might be hard to reach this goal, but I'll keep working hard.

——Eric

Mo Yan is my favourite writer. He tells the world a lot by writing great stories. I hope to learn from him. To write more and better stories, I'll spend more time reading his works.

——Tony

Kobe was one of the greatest basketball players in the world, but it's sad that he died years ago. I love basketball and I think I'm going to be a famous player like him. Though it's not easy to become a sports star, I'll never give up.

A.took up
B.grew up
C.made up
D.dressed up

答案： 36. A[提示:考查动词短语辨析。句意:这个女孩两年前开始从事绘画,现在她能画得相当好。took up 开始从事;grew up 长大;made up 编造,组成;dressed up 打扮。根据"two years ago"和"now she can paint quite well"可知,句子强调"从过去开始绘画,到现在画得非常不错"的过程。took up painting"开始从事绘画",故选 A。]
