He has made wigs for the stars of more than seventy movies, including Tom Hanks inPhiladelphia, Johnny Depp in Sleepy Hollow, and Nicole Kidman in The Others. One of his biggest jobs so far has been designing the hair and make-up  for the three Lord of the Rings movies. He had just six weeks to design and make more than a hundred wigs, each one a different style, colour, shape and length. The hair and make-up in a movie are just as important as the costumes  or the sets. Over the years, Peter has made actors look older, younger, healthy and sick. For one movie he even made a female actor look like a man!"What people don't realize about wigs is that we are not always making people more beautiful," he says. "Often we are covering up beauty and making them look ordinary." All Peter's wigs are hand-made using human hair, so they look as real as possible. This also makes them very expensive--between US$4,500 and US$12,500 each! He knows he's done a good job when people don't realize the star of the movie is wearing a wig. So he was pleased when one newspaper said that Nicole Kidman had dyed  her hair dark brown for a movie. "It was a wig and no one knew that," he says. Question: Why are Peter's wigs so expensive? Options: A: They are made in foreign countries. B: Peter makes the best wigs. C: They are only made for rich film makers. D: They are hand-made using human hair.

I listened as she was speaking to her imaginary friend and I'll never forget the words she said, even though it was pretend . She said, "Suzie's in the corner because she's not been very good. She didn't listen to a word I said or do the things she should." In the corner I saw her baby doll all dressed in lace and pink. It was obvious she'd been put there to sit alone and think. My daughter continued her "conversation,"  as I sat down on the floor. She said, "I'm all fed up, I just don't know what to do with her anymore. She cries whenever I have to work and wants to play games, too. She never lets me do the things that I just have to do. She tries to help me with the dishes, but her arms just cannot reach and she doesn't know how to fold towels. I don't have the energy to teach. I have a lot of work to do and a big house to keep clean. I don't have the time to sit and play. Don't you know what I mean?" And that day I thought a lot about making some changes in my life, as I listened to her innocent  words that cut me like a knife. I hadn't been paying enough attention to what I hold most dear. But now my attitude has changed, because, in my heart, I realize I've seen the world in a different light through my little darling's eyes. So, let the cobwebs   have the corners and the dust bunny rabbit rule the floor, I'm not going to worry about keeping up with them  anymore . I'm going to fill the house with memories of a child and her mother, for we have only one childhood, and we will never get another. Question: What can we learn from this passage? Options: A: The mother shouldn't blame her daughter. B: The mother should spend enough time with her daughter. C: The mother shouldn't carry responsibilities that many. D: The mother should pay attention to her daughter's words.
