24、 his progress amazed everyone as the young boy produced impressive landscapes and watercolors.”可知C项正确。2解析：选D推理判断题。根据第五段作者提供的几个数据：第一次“he sold 19 paintings for 14,000 pounds”， 第二次“sold 16 paintings for over 17,000 pounds”，第三次“earning 150,000 pounds”，第四次“His entire collection had sold out in 10 minutes
25、 to collectors from around the world. Now he has a waiting list of more than 5,000 people who have ordered his paintings.”可知，他的画越来越受欢迎。故选D项。3解析：选D细节理解题。根据第五段中对几次画展中Kieron的画的销售情况的描述，尤其是“His entire collection had sold out in 10 minutes to collectors from around the world.”可知，在第四次画展中，他全部的画仅10分钟就销售一空了，所以比他预期的要早得多，故选D项。4解析：选B词义猜测题。根据画线词前的“he has been compared to Pablo Picasso”和其后的“still making time for football and maintaining excellent grades at school”可知，虽然受到很多人的注意，但他依然抽时间踢球，保持优异的成绩，由此推测他并未受到这些关注的影响。.15FADBG
