19.Animals are a favorite subject of many photographers.Cats,dogs,and other pets top the list,followed by zoo animals.However,because it's hard to get them to sit still and"perform on command,"some professional photographers refuse to photograph pets.
One way to get an attractive portrait of a cat or dog is to hold a biscuit or treat above the camera.The animal's longing look toward the food will be caught by the camera,but the treat won't appear in the picture because it's out of the camera's range.When you show the picture to your friends afterwards,they'll be impressed by your pet's loving expression.
If you are using fast film,you can take some good,quick shots of a pet by simply snapping a picture right after calling its name.You'll get a different expression from your pet using this technique.Depending on your pet's mood,the picture will capture an interested,curious expression or possibly a look of annoyance,especially if you've awakened it from a nap.
Taking pictures of zoo animals requires a little more patience.After all,you can't wake up a lion!You may have to wait for a while until the animal does something interesting or moves into a position for you to get a good shot.When photographing zoo animals,don't get too close to the cages,and never tap on the glass or throw things between the bars of a cage.Concentrate on shooting some good pictures,and always respect the animals you are photographing.

35.Why do some professional photographers dislike to take pictures of pets?A
A.Pets may not follow orders.
B.Pets don't want to be bothered.
C.Pets may not like photographers.
D.Pets seldom change their expressions.
36.What is the use of a biscuit in taking pictures of a pet?A
A.To capture a attractive look.
B.To create a special atmosphere.
C.To arouse the appetite of the pet.
D.To keep the pet from looking at the camera.
37.What is the advantage of calling your pet's name when taking a shot of it?D
A.To help your pet look its best.
B.To make sure that your pet sits still.
C.To keep your pet awake for a while.
D.To catch a different expression of your pet.
38.In what way is photographing zoo animals different from photographing pets?B
A.You need to have fast film.
B.You need more time to watch and wait.
C.You need special equipment.
D.You need to stay close to the animals.

分析 動物是很多攝影師拍照的對象,但很難讓他們禁止不動.文章講述了幾種可以讓動物保持安靜的幾種方法.

解答 35.A 細節(jié)理解題.由第一段中的However,because it's hard to get them to sit still and"perform on command,"some professional photographers refuse to photograph pets.可知,寵物拍照時,很難聽從攝影師的命令,保持不動,所以攝影師不太喜歡給寵物拍照.可知A項符合題意.
36.A 細節(jié)理解題.由第二段中的"One way to get an appealing portrait of a cat or dog is to hold a biscuit or treat above the camera.The animal's longing look toward the food will be captured by the camera."這句可以看出,攝影師為了捕捉瞬間,往往會給寵物餅干等東西來吸引他們的注意力.所以給寵物餅干主要為了抓拍精彩的瞬間. 可知A項切題.
37.D 細節(jié)理解題.由第三段中的"If you are using fast film,you can take some good,quick shots of a pet by simply snapping a picture right after calling its name.You'll get a different expression from your pet using this technique."攝影師如果想拍攝寵物不同表情的話,可以不聽叫喚寵物的名字.可知D項切題.
38.B推理判斷題.由最后一段中心句"Taking pictures of zoo animals requires a little more patience."以及"You may have to wait for a while until the animal does something interesting or moves into a position for you to get a good shot."題目要求我們找出攝影師拍攝動物園的動物和拍攝寵物的不同點,從這句話看出二者區(qū)別在于:攝影師在拍攝動物園動物時需要更多耐心.可知B項切題.

點評 本文屬于科教說明文,話題貼近學(xué)生生活,難度不大.考生注意第一段和每段的第一句話,可以把握大意,將題干信息帶到文章找信息源,仔細推敲,比較.

4.China has announced it's abolishing its one-child policy.What difference has it made,statistically speaking?
400 million births prevented
The one-child policy,officially in place since 1979,has prevented 400 million births.Parents have faced fines and other punishments for having more children.
The majority of the decrease in China's fertility rate happened in the 1970s.It dropped from 5.8 children per woman in 1970 to 2.7 in 1978.Despite the one-child policy the rate had only fallen to 1.7 by 2013.
21:28-baby deaths rate
Since the one-child policy was introduced,baby girls have become more likely to die than boys.
In the 1970s,according to the United Nations,60 males per 1,000 live births died under the age of one.For girls the figure was 53.In the 1980s,after the one-child policy became official,the rate for both was 36.By the 1990s,26 males per 1,000 live births died before the age of one-and 33 girls.The 2000s saw 21 boys per 1,000 live births dying and 28 girls.
1.16 boys born for every girl
Sexually selective abortions have been considered as a major cause of China's unusual imbalance.
Gietel-Basten,associate professor in social policy at Oxford University,says the births of many girls are not registered if parents have broken the rule by having two children,adding officials often turn a blind eye.It's estimated there are now 33 million more men than women in China.
4:2:1 families
With the ageing of China's population and the continuation of the one-child policy,a"4:2:1"home is the description given to households in which there are four grandparent,cared for by two working age parents,who themselves have one child.
By 2050,it's predicted that a quarter of China's population will be 65 or older.The predicted decline in the number of people of working age is thought to have persuaded the government to drop the one-child policy.
21.When was the baby deaths rate for both boys and girls equal?B
A.In the 1970s.B.In the 1980s.C.In the 1990s.D.In the 2000s
22.What makes the one-child policy abolished according to the passage?D
A.The decline of birth rate.B.The rise of baby deaths rate.
C.The change of family structure.D.The decline of working age people.
23.The passage sums up the one child policy byA.
A.number           B.example         C.contrast        D.a(chǎn)nalysis.

4.A.Create family traditions.
B.Remember the 80/20 rule.
C.Insist on family celebrations.
D.Crcate opportunities for talking.
E.Use technology to your advantage.
F.Go on individual dates with your children.

It's no secret that nowadays a majority of parents are overworked,overcommitted and overscheduled.Kids would rather text their friends than chat with Mom or Dad,.which leads to a family communication crisis.Want to improve your family's communication skills?Try following these simple steps.
61.D
Make time for talking by reducing the number of activities your family is involved in each week-the time it frees up for communication will be invaluable.And if you do find yourself in the car running from place to place,make a point to turn off the radio,the cell phones and the personal game players,and use that opportunity to catch up on the day's activities.
62.F
Spending time with each of your children lets them know that they matter and aren't getting lost in a busy day or large family.Older teens might enjoy going out for a hamburger or a latte at their favorite coffee place.Younger children often enjoy going to the supermarket,especially when you let them select their favorite cereal or special dessert.Please remember,regularly making such arrangements can keep the relationship healthy.
63.B
When you are trying to improve any relationship,listening is far more important than talking,so when it comes to family communication,listen four times longer than you speak.Similarly,think twice about what you say before you say it.Sometimes a parent's first reaction is to rant and scream,especially to negative news.Do your best to avoid this,and if you do verbally explode before your child is finished,apologize quickly and assure him or her that you're now ready to listen
64.E
If the family computer's been relegated to homework duties or surfing the Web,why not put it to work by creating a family newsletter that you publish monthly?Ask everyone in the family to contribute"articles"and information about themselves.Then print out a copy for each person and hand deliver it.This would be especially helpful to families that find keeping in touch more difficult as the kids grow up and move away.
65.A
Setting up a family movie night,attending religious services or creating special holiday treats are all examples of family traditions.Family members come to expect and appreciate these traditions,seeing them as opportunities to come together as a unit.If your family is short on traditions,there's no reason you can't start some now.Why not set up a bowling night once a month?Or grow a family garden?Or visit the same spot every year for summer vacation?

11.Virginia is set to begin enforcing the toughest drunken-driving punishment,one that will require thousands of first-time offenders-whether they were highly drunk or slightly over the limit-to install (安裝) in their cars blood-alcohol testing devices that can lock the ignition.The devices work like this-A driver must blow into a blood alcohol device linked to the car's ignition.If the result is higher than the legal limit,the car will not start.The device also requires random"rolling retests"once the driver is on the road.
Virginia's current law requires only repeat drunken-driving offenders or those with a blood alcohol level of 0.15or higher to have an ignition interlock device in their car.
The new law,which takes effect in July,will roughly increase the number of people required to use ignition interlock devices four times,and offenders will have to pay about﹩480 for a typical six-month installation.
The measure has caused a debate between groups battling drunken driving and those representing offenders.Such groups as Mothers Against Drunk Driving and the Washington Regional Alcohol Program say that Virginia's 274 alcohol-related road deaths and more than 5,500 injuries in 2010 remained unacceptably high despite years of cracking down on drunken driving.Ignition interlock devices,they say,reduce repeat offenses.But some public defenders and lawyers argue that the devices are too severe a punishment for offenders at the legal blood alcohol limit of 0.08,and that the court system will be burdened by more cases going to trial and lower-income drivers will be affected by the fees.
Del.Sal R.Iaquinto,who sponsored the bill,had a simple reply for concerns about the costs of the interlock devices:"How much does a life cost?""Blowing into a tube for six months,you will remember that,"Iaquinto said."And you?re not likely to offend again."

61.The ignition probably refers to the part in a car where.D
A.the alarm goes off  B.the car is fueled
C.the key is placed   D.the engine starts
62.Who are required to install the blood  alcohol devices according to the current law?A
A.The repeat drunken-driving offenders.
B.The first time drunken-driving offenders.
C.Drivers whose blood alcohol level is below 0.15.
D.The drivers who are not able to pay offence fees.
63.Some groups support the new law becauseB.
A.the government can be financed to build roads
B.some traffic deaths and injuries may be avoided
C.lower-income drivers will not afford to drink again
D.the court system is forced to work more effectively
64.The debate aroused by the measure suggests thatC.
A.justice has long arms
B.punishment is the key to all
C.no law is absolutely perfect
D.prevention is better than cure
65.According to Del.Sal R.Iaquinto,the new law isB.
A.severe  B.workable  C.unpractical  D.flexible.

9.Here is the list of my favorite comic books.
Sin City:The hard Goodbye by Frank Miller
I probably have read this comic book 30times.I can easily say that Marv is my favorite comic book character.He is violent with a heart of gold.This story is so well written.As I was reading Marv getting closer to the truth about who was trying to frame (陷害) him,it was like watching a movie.The pace of the story was amazing and I really can not take my eyes off.
Akira by Katsuhiro Otomo
I saw the movie years before I could read the original work.After reading the original work,I realized that though the movie is great,the comic book is far better!In the comic book,it goes deeper into the Tetsuo character development and tells a lot more about the lady Mariko whom we barely see in the movie.My brother,who is not even a comic book reader,has read this 2500-page series twice.
The Ultimate Spider-Man by Mark Bagley and Michael Bendis
I was not even born when Spider-Man started making his first web.So Mark Bagley decided to revisit the web slinger for their younger audience.Michael Bendis did an amazing rewrite of the web slinger.In the rewritten version,Peter Parker didn't grow up in the 1960s but born in the 21st century.And let me tell you,there is no rest for the Spider-Man in that comic book as he is fighting all his classic foes (敵人).
Watchmen by Dave Gibbons and Alan Moore
Who is watching the watchmen?I love this line.The story takes place years after the watchmen used to watch over society.An old man is murdered.We learn shortly that he is a member of the watchmen.Rorchach thinks it is a conspiracy (陰謀) and that all the ex-members of the watchmen are in danger.But who is behind the conspiracy?

32.If you want to read a story about a violent but kind-hearted man,you should readB.
A.The Ultimate Spider-Man      
B.Sin City:The hard Goodbye
C.Watchmen                  
D.Akira
33.What did the writer realize after reading the original work of Akira?D
A.The story isn't good enough to make a good movie.
B.It shouldn't have been adapted for the big screen.
C.Many characters don't show up in the movie.
