The juries(陪审团)entered．
I stood beside the lawyer and my brother，Jimmy．It reminded me of our childhood—as things often did—when we played the game “Simon Says”，we would react at the same time in harmony when hearing all kinds oforders．“Simon saysjump，Simon saystouch your toes”—it wasalmost the same．Almost．When we grew up，my brother had chosen a separatelife，leaving mealone．I missed hima lot．Today，though，we were together，standing in court，waiting for the sentence．
The guilty verdict(判决)was read．I sat down，but my brother cried，“No! I'm innocent．”And then he turned to me，yelling，“How can you do this to me，James! I finally can make a new life by myself．”
“Stop this，”the judge yelled，“the juries have made the decision．”
“But it's not fair!”my brother replied，“I didn’t kill anyone．”
I wished I could explain，but I said nothing because this is the only way we can be togetheragain．
The judge pulled his glasses from his face．“By law…”
“The law is unjust，”my brother said．
The judge wiped his eyes，and，to mysurprise，said calmly．“Yes，”he nodded his glasses aside．“I agree with you about that．Law is meant to protect the innocent．And you certainly seem innocent．But how can I tell? You two are clones．Your faces，your fingerprints，even your DNA match exactly．That’s why whenone is found guilty，all others…”
The judge sighed，replaced his glasses，and banged the hammer．“I sentence you both to twenty years．”

Parents who want their kids to succeed more than anything are nowbeing sold a high-tech solution．Class 120 is $199-a-year smartphone app that tracks teenagers andalerts parents if the kid isn’t in his or her scheduled class．
Is it a good idea for parents to track whether their young adultsare in class? In short：No．This is aterrible idea．
One of the fundamental purposes of a college is learning to be anindependent person．That means learning how to do what needs to be done，whether one particularly feels likedoing it or not．It’s easy to seewhy parents are keen on tracking their kids．A student is admitted to college by a process that focuses mainly ongrades and scores．Monitoringgrades and scores is easy．The parents may think that：
“Our child is succeeding．We are good parents．We are happy．”But grades and scores can’t tell everything．
They don’t take into account whether their kids have the strength of self-discipline(自律)and the skill needed to care forhimself or herself．
Monitoring the development of character is much harder for parents．Character growth happens throughencountering(遇到)andlearning to deal with disappointments and failure．You never know which problem will be the point for growth．
However，letting kids fail can be really difficult for anxious parents．They believe that success meansbeing perfect and never failing．The truth is that kids need to learn to fail．
College is an ideal place to practice adults’responsibility and independence．Students need to make their owndecisions about whether to get out of bed and go to work in the morning．Maybe your child hasn’t learned this lesson by now，but he or she has to learn it sometime．An alarm clock’s job is to wake you up，but it does not provide a reason．
28．What’s author’s attitude toward trackingteenagers? A．Supportive．
B．Opposed．
C．Indifferent．
D．Disappointed．
29．According to the author，what’s the mostimportant thing should a college student learn in school?
A．Avoiding failure．
B．Keeping healthy．
C．Professional knowledge．
D．Living independently．
30．What’s the author’s opinion on failure?
A．Failure means that a kid is not good enough．
B．Failure may be the key part of kid’s development．C．Everyone should manage to avoid failure at any time．D．Failure will bring many negative influences to children．31．What does the underlined sentence mean in the last paragraph? A．An alarm clock is necessary for a kid．
B．A kid should buy a talking alarm clock．
C．A kid should get up early for learning without any reason．
D．A kid should always maintain a sense of responsibility andindependence．

Do you still remember the scene in the famous movie Titanic，directed by Cameron，where Jack was frozen to death inthe icy cold water so that Rose could survive on the floating door alone? Itbroke many people’s heart．
Two decades later，people are still asking the question，“wasn’t thereenough room on the door for both of them?”
Cameron once responded by saying it wasn’t a question of room，but buoyancy(浮力)—if both of them had tried to stay on the raft，he argued，the whole thing would sink．
But several guys from“Mythbusters”，an Australian-American science entertainment television program，decided to test the theorythemselves．Theydiscovered that if Rose had took off her life jacket to the bottom of the raft，there would have been enoughbuoyancy to keep both of them afloat．
When they presented their findings to Cameron，the director insisted that Jackcouldn’t be saved．
“The answer is very simple，”Cameron said．“Because it says on page 147 of thescript that Jack dies．To Cameron，it was an artistic choice to have the beloved character of millions，Jack drown into the cold sea．Jack had to die because Cameronthought it would be best if we did．
“It was an artistic choice，the thing was just big enough tohold her，and not bigenough to hold him，”Cameron said．“I think it's all kind of silly，really，that we’re having this discussion 20 yearslater．But it doesshow that the film was effective in making Jack so endearing to
the audiencethat it hurts them to see him die．The film is about death and separation；he had to die．”
Since Jack was doomed to die，Cameron said，it could have happened in a variety of different ways．It’s not about the door not being big enough：that’s just a practical method for his death．“Whether it was that，or whether a chimney fell on him，he was going down，”Cameron said．“It’s called art：things happen for artistic reasons，not for physics reasons．”
32．What do we know about the character Jack according to the text? A．He intended to kill himself．B．He sacrificed himself to save Rose．
C．He didn’t have money to buy ticket．D．He lacked basic knowledge ofphysics．
33．According to Cameron，why did the audience argue about Jack’s death for 20 years?
A．They are fragile people．B．They don’t like the movie．
C．They love the character Jack．D．They are crazy about physics．
34．Why was a chimney mentioned in the last paragraph?
A．To introduce the structure of the ship．
B．To show the original plan of the movie．
C．To present the missing part of the movie．
D．To explain the unchangeable fate of Jack．
35．What is best title of the text?
A．Jack in Titanic Must Die．B．Big Enough for Both．C．Cameron is Wrong．D．Jack could Survive．第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)

Capturing a dramatic sky with a camera is more difficult than itseems．With the skylighter than the land，the camera will typically over-expose the sky，turning a brilliant blue into anunexciting gray． 36
◆Time it right．
Landscape photography may not require the timing that’s necessary for capturing a baby’s smile． 37 The sky that’s gray one day, could be brightblue the next．When planningout a landscape photo，consider how the timing will impact the sky．
◆ 38
Photography rules are sometimes meant to be broken．Sometimes，using the wrong white balancesetting creates a more dramatic sky．This is especially true when shooting towards the beginning or endof the day.
◆ Compose for the sky．
39 If you are shooting a photo with an averagelooking sky，try placingthe horizon on the upper third of the image，so more of the land is included in the photo．But if the sky is really dramatic，take advantage of that and includemore of it in the frame by placing the horizon on the lower third．
◆ Use a filter(滤镜)．
40 It limits the light coming in for brightscenes or long exposures．Every landscape photographer should have a filter in their camerabag in order to capture more dramatic skies．

B．Try the wrong white balance．
