I got my first job at 12 as a waitress. It certainly was tiring but interesting. And when I went on to college, it paid for tuition and housing and eventually, a camera.
From the moment I picked up a camera, I was attracted. All I wanted to do was take pictures for the university newspaper, the Minnesota Daily. The paper at that time was one of the largest in the state and was produced by young journalists who went on to work at every major magazine in the country. For the final two years, I just wanted to be a photographer. The week I finished college. I was hired by the Worthington Daily Globe.
Jim Vance was the top-notch publisher of the Globe. He had very high expectations of all the staff. With little or no instruction from him, 35 writers and photographers were expected to fill the paper with stories that were important to our readers. It was perfect training for my future career at National Geography.
I was the youngest photographer working for National Geography when I arrived in 1978, and I spent at least a decade just trying not to make mistakes. While I was grateful for the opportunity, it was very difficult for me. With each new task came the fear that this was going to be the one where they figured out that I couldn't do the job. On many tasks, the most challenging part turned out to be the transportation. Over the years, I traveled by horse, cars train, truck and all sorts of old vehicles. I traveled by mule in Mexico, by ship along the Indian Ocean, by fishing boat in the Sea of Galilee. Wherever I traveled in the world, I wanted my pictures to make a real difference in people's lives.
I am deeply grateful for the amazing lessons photography has taught me. I've learnt that women really do hold up half the sky; that language isn't always necessary, but touch usually is; that all people are not alike, but they do mostly have the same hopes, and fears.
4. When did the author wish to become a photographer A. After she graduated from college. B. When she was working as a waitress. C. As soon as she picked up the camera.
D. While she was working for the university newspaper.
5. How did the author feel when she began working for National
Geography
A. Inspired. B. Worried. C. Touched. D. Disappointed. 6. What has the author learned from photography A. Transportation is the most challenging in travelling. B. Women and men are not equal in some countries. C. People hold different hopes and ideas towards life.
D. People can still understand each other despite language barriers (障碍).
7. How is the passage developed
A. By making comparisons. B. By giving examples. C. By time. D. By space. C
The Pygmalion fleet refers to a possible influence that people's expectations can have on other people's performance.Therefore,it directly links the initial expectations we have about a person's abilities and the performance that this same person ends up having. High expectations lead to better performance and low
expectations lead to worse;both effects are called the self-fulfilling prophecy (自我实现预言).It is interesting to analyze the self-fulfilling prophecy because it can affect us both positively and negatively.The positive effect is referred to by the term \"Pygmalion effect\",which strengthens the characteristic you want to influence,
and it produces an increase in self-esteem (自尊).We call the adverse effect \"Golem effect\",which produces a decrease in people's self-esteem and their performance.
The Pygmalion effect can also be called the Rosenthal
effect.Rosenthal was a professor of social psychology at Harvard University who,together with Lenore Jacobson,carried out a famous experiment to see the effects of the self-fulfilling prophecy in education.
Rosenthal and Jacobson gave a non-verbal (非语言的) intelligence test to the students at the beginning of the course,informing the teachers that the analysis predicted the intelligence level of the students.Then,they selected,without any regular plan,a sample of 20% of the students in each class,thus creating the experimental group.The teachers were informed that the selected \"good students\" had greater potential for progress,while for the rest they did not say anything,the latter becoming the control group.
After eight months,an intelligence test was passed on to all the students and the conclusion Was that those students who had been rated as more intelligent had improved more than the rest.This experiment allowed scientists to show that the positive expectations of those around us have a direct good effect on our
performance and our results.They create a better atmosphere and are more open to giving information and encouragement.A person is not \"still\" and permanent,but is changing and developing through their experiences.Educators have a role that can be vital in making up for socioeconomic differences among students,and are able to strengthen those that can have added difficulties to reach their greatest potential.
8. What can be inferred about the self-fulfilling prophecy? A. It is a part of the Pygmalion effect. B. It is a double-edged motivation tool. C. It does good to people's self-esteem.
D. It works differently in people of different backgrounds.
9. What does the underlined word \"adverse\" in Paragraph 2 mean? A. Lasting B. Desired. C. Opposite. D. Immediate. 10. What do we know about the experimental group? A. They had excellent classroom performance. B. They were chosen without purposeful plans. C. They were specially selected by the teachers. D. They had close scores in the intelligence test.
11. What is the Pygmalion effect's inspiration to educators? A. Challenging students with more difficulties. B. Offering poor students more financial support.
C. Carrying out more colorful teaching activities. D. Paying more attention to disadvantaged students. D
Should humans explore space?If you ask me,I'll definitely give a positive answer.
The exploitation (开发) of space has a direct impact on the lives of humans,as well as the state of our world.Satellites moving around the earth enable communication across the
world.connecting people of different continents and broadcasting information worldwide.The Global Positioning System (GPS) can identify our location anywhere.Furthermore,weather satellites can forecast harmful weather conditions which allows humans to prepare for deadly natural disasters and save lives.
Space programs can also indirectly contribute to the solution to poverty and world hunger.For example,large plots of land could be used far better if humans applied technologies.The most effective tool is the artificial earth satellite.It can screen areas of land within a very short time,indicating useful measures such as the condition of crops,soil rainfall,and droughts.It can then transmit this information to ground stations on the earth for better use.
In recent years,space-based technologies have become an
important factor to reach and expand global health
objectives.Information provided by remote technologies can be applied to study the epidemiology (流行病学).This data provided by space technologies can monitor disease patterns,understand the environmental causes that spread it,make predictions about where it can spread in the future,and make plans to fight it efficiently.
Furthermore,access to better education means better life prospects and opportunities for human beings.Rural communities have disadvantaged access to education and satellite
communication technologies are trying to bridge this gap.With the advancement of technology,students can now access any information and connect with peers and teachers in different parts of the world via video conferences and the creation of virtual classrooms.
Space exploration is something we can do for future
generations.Mankind is using the resources provided on the planet,but these will run out one day.Overpopulation can be an existential threat for all mankind.With the advancement of space technology,it will be wise to use and explore the vast potential of other planets,such as the availability of mining resources on asteroids or other planets.
For the exploration of the universe,perhaps the most
advantageous of all is that it will unite us to work together for a common purpose,regardless of our differences.
12. What can space exploitation do according to Paragraph 2? A. Improve the traffic on the earth. B. Promote travel between countries. C. Help prevent deadly natural disasters.
D. Help humans communicate and exchange information.
13. How can space programs help with poverty and world hunger? A. By benefiting crop production with artificial earth satellites. B. By transporting food worldwide more easily. C. By creating job opportunities for the poor. D. By protecting available land resources.
14. What does the author think of mining resources on other planets?
A. Time-wasting. B. Arguable. C. Necessary. D. Educational. 15. What would be the best title for the text? A. Why Space Exploration Is Important? B. Why Humankind Should Keep Exploring? C. Why We Should Improve Space Technology? D. Why Humans Should Keep Developing Technologies? Social anxiety disorder can make one feel scared and more
self-conscious than other people do in social interactions. (1) . The following tips can help you feel better and get through the day. Prepare. (2) . Preparing for what is to come can help boost your self-confidence and help you resist the urge to avoid some situations that make you feel nervous. For example, if you're going on a first date and you're scared you'll have nothing in common, try reading magazines and newspapers to find a few topics to talk about. If going to a party, do some relaxation or breathing exercises to help you calm down before you leave the house! Start small. Dealing with social anxiety takes time and practice. You have to be patient and try not to take on your biggest fears at once. Don't jump into a big social situation that doesn't yet make you feel comfortable.
(3) . You can practice eating out in public by going to restaurants with close friends and family, try making eye contact with people on the street or at the grocery store and say hello and if someone starts a conversation with you, ask them questions about their hobbies or favorite places to travel.
(4) . Pay attention to things happening around you instead of the thought in your head. Focus more on being present and interested, be a good listener by paying attention to the conversations that are happening around you and remind yourself that other people
probably can't tell how anxious you are just by looking at you. Use your senses. Using your six senses whenever you feel nervous or anxious can help you calm down. For some people, looking at a favorite photograph or smelling a certain scent can do the trick. (5) . A. Control your thoughts. B. Shift focus off yourself.
C. Take your time and build up the abilities to handle it. D. Get involved in physical activities as possible as you can. E. It is important to plan ahead of certain social interactions. F. So, the next time you feel anxious, try listening to a song or eating something.

When school was over,the day was fading and it started to drizzle (毛毛雨)I stood at the school gate,with a loaded backpack on my
shoulders.It was Friday again:a weekend of joy with unlimited sleeping hours and dinner courses specially made to my taste,a weekend at home.I waved goodbye to my friends as they jumped into their fathers' warm and comfortable cars.Curiously,this gave rise to a disturbing feeling in me.It was not exactly what they called jealousy,but something like dismay(沮丧).I knew all I could expect was an old bike Mom would ride along on,with the badly-oiled chain creaking(嘎吱作响)against the wheel to announce her arrival. Every Friday when Mom came to pick me up for the weekend,it was a moment full of great expectation and great unease.I always felt my face burning as we rode our way in and out of the numerous cars and saw my friends' faces sticking out of the car windows.It was like stepping into a ballroom with beautifully dressed ladies and finding yourself in a smelly T-shirt.
To tell you the truth,Mom is quite a headache once in a while.She just looks a homely middle-aged housewife.Being a practitioner of DIY,she knits most of my sweaters,chiefly in old styles.Whenever caught by some curious classmates asking what brand my sweaters are,I'd force a smile and reply in a half joking manner:homemade. I couldn't remember when I started to find her such an embarrassment.As a little boy,I relied on her so much.She had been working at home,cooking in the kitchen,knitting by the lamp
or riding across town to buy me a book I badly needed.It had always been much fun riding with mom.But just now there seemed to be something standing between us,something that made her so strange to me and me to her. 注意:

阅读能力一般指阅读速度和理解能力两个方面。阅读速度是阅读最基本的能力,考生必须在十分有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读,搜寻关键词、主题句,捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点,并且理清文章脉络,把握语篇实质。 二、看题干,带着问题读文章。
首先要掌握问题的类型,客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案;
而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调等,这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等。其次,了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息,然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读,对有关信息进行快速定位。此法加强了阅读的针对性,提高了做题的准确率。
三、逻辑推理,做好深层理解题。
在实际阅读中,有时作者并未把意图说出来,阅读者要根据字面意思,通过语篇逻辑关系,研究细节的暗示,推敲作者的态度,理解文章的寓义。要求读者对文字的表面信息进行分析、挖掘和逻辑推理,不能就事论事,以偏概全。推理题在提问中常用的词有:infer,imply,suggest,indicate等。
四、猜词悟义,扫除阅读拦路虎。
猜词是应用英语的重要能力。它不但需要准确无误地理解上下文,而且要有较大的泛读量,掌握或认识较多的课外词汇。我们要学会\"顺藤摸瓜\",通过构词,语法,定义,同位,对比,因果,常识,上下文等线索确定词义。 12~15.【答案】D、A、C、A
【解析】(1)细节理解题。由本文第二自然段中的关键句Satellites moving around the earth enable communication across the world,connecting people of different continents and broadcasting information worldwide.The Global Positioning System(GPS) can identify our location anywhere.Furthermore,weather satellites can
forecast harmful weather conditions,which allows humans to prepare for deadly natural disasters and save lives.(绕地球运行的卫星能够在世界各地进行通信,连接不同的人们,并在世界各地广播信息。全球定位系统(GPS)可以在任何地方识别我们的位置。此外,天气卫星可以预测有害天气条件,使人类能够为致命的自然灾害做好准备并拯救生命。)可知太空探索可以帮助人类通信和传播信息。故选D。
(2)细节理解题。由本文第三自然段中的关键句Space programs can also indirectly lead to the solution to poverty and world hunger.For example,large plots of land could be used far better if humans applied technologies.The most effective tool is the artificial earth satellite.It can screen areas of land within a very short time,indicating useful measures,such as the condition of crops,soil,rainfall,and droughts.It can then transmit this information to ground stations on the earth for better use.(太空计划也可以间接解决贫困和世界饥饿问题。例如,如果人类应用技术,大片土地可以得到更好的利用。最有效的工具是人造地球卫星。它可以在很短的时间内对土地进行筛查,显示有用的措施,如作物状况、土壤、降雨和干旱。然后将这些信息传输到地球上的地面站以便更好地使用。)可知太空计划利用人造地球卫星造福农作物生产来帮助解决贫困和世界饥饿问题。故选A。
(3)观点态度题。由本文倒数第二段中中的关键句With the
advancement of space technology,it will be wise to use and explore the vast potential of other planets,such as the availability of mining resources on asteroids or other planets.(随着太空技术的进步,利用和探索其他行星的巨大潜力将是明智的,例如小行星或其他行星上的采矿资源的可用性。)可推断出在对其他星球上开采资源这一行为,作者对认为是有必要的。故选C。
(4)标题判断题。由本文第一自然段中的关键句Should humans explore space?If you ask me,I'll definitely give a positive answer.(人类应该探索太空吗?如果你问我,我一定会给你肯定的答复。)以及最后一自然段For the exploration of the universe,perhaps the most advantageous of all is that it will unite us to work together for a common purpose,regardless of our differences.(对于宇宙的探索来说,也许最有利的是它将把我们团结起来,为了一个共同的目标而努力,不管我们有什么分歧。)结合文章主要讲的是人类是否应该探索太空为此话题而展开的讨论,论述了探索太空的重要性。所以A.Why Space Exploration Is Important?(为什么太空探索很重要?)作为题目最合适。故选A。
这是一篇议论文。主要讲的是人类是否应该探索太空为此话题而展开的讨论,论述了探索太空的重要性。
阅读理解解题步骤:首先对原文材料迅速浏览,掌握全文的主旨大意,因为阅读理解题一般没有标题,所以,速读全文,抓住中心主旨很有必要,在速读的过程中,应尽可能多地捕获信息材料;其次细读题材,

【解析】(1)考查代词。句意:那个地方在三年前的一次军事政变中被推翻。分析句子结构可知此处是find it+adj to do结构,it作形式宾语,真正的宾语是后面的不定式。故填it。
(2)考查形容词。句意:是因为床不舒服吗?分析句子结构可知,空前是系动词is,所以空处应填形容词作表语,再根据句意,此处表达\"不舒服\"之意,comfort的否定形容词是uncomfortable。故填uncomfortable。
(3)考查定语从句关系词。句意:根据发表在《当代生物学》上的一项新研究,人们睡不好的一个重要原因是科学家们所说的\"第一晚效应\"。分析句子结构可知,空处引导定语从句,先行词是reason,

(7)考查可数名词复数。句意:然而,随着时间的推移,大脑左半球的活动减少,甚至下降到完全平静的地步。分析句子结构可知,空前是冠词the,所以空处应填名词,activity意为\"活动\",为可数名词,此处应该用复数形式。故填activities。
(8)考查现在分词。句意:随着时间的推移,大脑左半球的活动减少,甚至下降到完全平静的地步。分析句子结构可知,本句已有谓语动词decreased,所以fall用非谓语形式,它的逻辑主语是activities,两者间是主动关系,所以用现在分词作状语。故填falling。 (9)考查名词。句意:在这个过程中,参与者的睡眠体验越来越好。空前是冠词the,所以空处应填名词,participate意为\"参与者\",为
可数名词,此处应该用复数形式。故填participants。
