AAre all your photographs good? Be honest with yourself. Aren’t some of your pictures too dark, and others too light? How many times have you thrown away a photo? We, the Fine Photograph Club, can help you. We meet every Wednesday in our comfortable club room in Bridge Street.

They will help you to develop your films or enlarge your pictures. What does it all cost? Only 5 pounds a year.Photography is now a big business. Do you know, for instance, that there are 15 million cameras in our country? And that 700 million photographs are taken a year, more than one-third of them in color? Think of the amount of photography in television, the cinema, newspapers, books, advertisements and so on. In modern life people learn a lot from pictures, so photography is more and more important.

Although campers and hikers are warned not to feed the bears, many people ignore these warnings and feed the beasts anyway. When bears are used to people’s food, problems soon arise.Bears like to eat a large variety of things, both meat and vegetable. Without human assistance, bears live nicely on roots, twigs, leaves of trees, insects and small animals. With people around, the bears' tastes quickly expand to include sandwiches, hot dogs, hamburgers, and anything else they can tempt humans into giving up.Bears often develop clever strategies for getting people to let go their food supplies. More often than not, an unsuspecting hiker has taken off his or her pack for a rest only to have a bear charge out of the woods, grab the pack and quickly disappear into the underbrush with it. Hanging the pack on a tree branch won’t help. Bears have been known to climb up, jump off, and catch the pack on the way down. One mother bear stretched up with her baby on her shoulders to reach a pack stored on a pole. Many bears threaten people into giving up their supplies. Although a bear is unlikely to attack a person and would probably run away if screamed at, few people are willing to do so. Most people drop the pack and run the other way. This, of course, delights the bear. In some places, the Park Service installed some metal barrels with lids to help campers keep their supplies safe from bears. Although the bears were unable to open these containers, the effort was less than successful. Most campers, unable to tell the metal drums from rubbish cans, never used them for the intended purpose.5. Feeding bears on people’s food.A. brings the people a lot of funB. can cause problemsC. often causes injuries and deathsD. helps bears survive6. If people had never fed bears, the bears .A. might be satisfied with what they had originallyB. would have starved long beforeC. wouldn’t have enough food supplyD. would have hunted for other kind of food7. Which of the following is TRUE?A. If fed on sandwiches and hot dogs, the bears would no longer eat roots, twigs and insects.B. It’s likely that bears would hurt people if the people didn’t give up their food.C. Most people would frighten away the bears that would tempt their food.D. Seeing a pack, the bear would quickly take it and run away with it.CThink about the different ways that people use the wind. You can use it to fly a kite or to sail a boat. Wind is one of our cleanest and richest power source, as well as one of the oldest. Evidence shows that windmills(风车) began to be used in ancient Iran back in the seventh century BC. They were first introduced to Europe during the 1100s, when armies returned from the Middle East with knowledge of using wind power.For many centuries, people used windmills to grind(磨碎) wheat into flour or pump water from deep underground. When electricity was discovered in the late 1800s, people living in remote areas began to use them to produce electricity. This allowed them to have electric lights and radio. However, by the1940s when electricity was available to people in almost all areas of the United States, windmills had been rarely used.During the 1970s, people started becoming concerned about the pollution that is created when coal and gas are burned to produce electricity. People also realized that the supply of coal and gas would not last forever. Then, wind was rediscovered, though it means higher costs. Today, there is a global movement to supply more and more of our electricity through the use of wind.8. From the text we know that windmills ________.A. were invented by European armiesB. have a history of more than 2800 yearsC. used to supply power to radio in remote areasD. have rarely been used since electricity was discovered9. What was a new use for wind power in the late l9th century?A. Sailing a boat.B. Producing electricity.C. Grinding wheat into flour.D. Pumping water from underground.10. One of the reasons why wind was rediscovered in the 1970 is that ________.A. wind power is cleanerB. it is one of the oldest power sourcesC. it was cheaper to create energy from windD. the supply of coal and gas failed to meet needs11. What would the author probably discuss in the paragraph that follows?A. The advantage of wind power.B. The design of wind power plants.C. The worldwide movement to save energy.D. The global trend towards producing power from wind.DIf Confucius(孔子) were still alive today and could celebrate his September 28 birthday with a big cake, there would be a lot of candles. He’d need a fan or a strong wind to help him put them out.While many people in China will remember Confucius on his special day, few people in the United States will give him a passing thought. It’s nothing personal. Most Americans don’t even remember the birthdays of their own national heroes.But this doesn’t mean that Americans don’t care about Confucius. In many ways he has become a bridge that foreigners must cross if they want to reach a deeper understanding of China.In the past two decades, the Chinese studies programs have gained huge popularity in Western universities. More recently, the Chinese government has set up Confucius Institutes in more than 80 countries. These schools teach both Chinese language and culture. The main courses of Chinese culture usually include Chinese art, history and philosophy(哲学). Some social scientists suggest that Westerners should take advantage of the ancient Chinese wisdom to make up for the drawbacks(缺点) of Western philosophy. Students in the United States, at the same time, are racing to learn Chinese. So they will be ready for life in a world where China is an equal power with the United States. Businessmen who hope to make money in China are reading books about Confucius to understand their Chinese customers.So the old thinker’s ideas are still alive and well.Today China attracts the West more than ever, and it will need more teachers to introduce Confucius and Chinese culture to the West.As for the old thinker, he will not soon be forgotten by people in the West, even if his birthday is. 12. The opening paragraph is mainly intended to ________.A. provide some key facts about ConfuciusB. attract the readers’ interest in the subjectC. show great respect for the ancient thinkerD. prove the popularity of modern birthday celebrations13. We can learn from Paragraph 4 that American students ________.A. have a great interest in studying ChineseB. take an active part in Chinese competitionsC. try to get high scores in Chinese examsD. fight for a chance to learn Chinese14. What is the best title for the passage?A. Forgotten Wisdom in AmericaB. Huge Fans of the Chinese LanguageC. Old Thinker with a Big FutureD. Chinese Culture for Westerners15. The passage is likely to appear in ________.A. a newspaperB. a history paperC. a biographyD. a philosophy textbook第二节(共5小题:每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

ATaj Mahal, Agra, IndiaAs many as 28 different varieties of semi-precious and precious stones were used to decorate the outside of the Taj Mahai. Construction of the Taj Mahai took around 20 years, beginning in around 1632 and finishing around 1653. Exact dates are unknown. The building, which was made from white marble from the quarries(采石场)of Rajasthan, appears pink in the morning, white in the day and golden in the moonlight. The building is symmetrical (对称) in every way, and was built as a memorial to the wife of Mughal emperor Shah Jahan. Completion date: 1653.Akashi Kaikyo Bridge, Akashi Strait, JapanIt took 2 million workers 10 years to construct the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge. It connects the city of Kobe, on japan's mainland, with Iwaya on Awaji Island. Before it opened, the only way to get between the two cities was by ferry. However, the waterway was often stricken by severe storms and when two ferries turned over in 1955, killing 168 people, public anger convinced the government of the need for a bridge. It's 1,991 meters long. Completion date: April 5, 1998.Panama Canal, PanamaMore than 4.5 million cubic yards of concrete were used in the construction of this canal's locks and dams. The Panama Canal is a 77-kilometer long waterway that connects the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. The earth and rubble excavated to make way for it would have been enough to bury Manhattan to a depth of four meters. A series of locks allows shipsto pass through the water; each of the moveable lock doors weighs 750 tons and each of the locks fills with 52 million gallons of water to accommodate the 15,000 ships that use the canal every year. It was completed on January 7, 1914 after 10 years of building.Grand Canyon Skywalk, ArizonaThe Skywalks foundation is strong enough to support 71 million pounds. Located 1,219 meters above the Colorado River, the Grand Canyon Skywalk consists of one million pounds of steel and 83, 000 pounds of glass. It was the creation of Las Vegas businessman David Jin, who approached the Hualapai Tribe with the idea of a glass walkway over the Grand Canyon in 1996. The Skywalk was assembled (ERLE)on site, with the drilling alone taking over a year to complete. Completion date: March 28, 2007.21. Which of the constructions took the longest time to build? A. The Taj Mahal.B. The Akashi Kaikyo Bridge.C. The Panama Canal.D. The Grand Canyon Skywalk.22. The Japanese government decided to build the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge ______. A. in the year of 1955 B. following public opinion C. to show its national power D. to develop Japan's economy23. The Grand Canyon Skywalk is probably a real challenge for those who _____. A. are airsick B. hate rock climbing C. have a fear of heights D. feel ill travelling in boatsBI decided to ski to the North Pole. It was after I saw an advertisement in a newspaper looking for people to join a team to ski 350 miles to the North Pole. Back in 1996, there had never been a woman from the UK who had accomplished this challenge. I wondered what此卷只装订不密封班级 姓名 准考证号 考场号 座位号it would be like to survive in temperatures cold enough to freeze your flesh in seconds, so I sent off for the application form.The application form full of pictures of male explores arrived. The w ords “Are you man enough for the ultimate(极限的)challenge?” made me angry and even more determined to get on the team.Over 500 individuals applied for a place in the team, and the selection process included physical and psychological tests designed to pick the best group. In one test, there was a huge rope ladder we had to climb, and I froze at the top because I have a fear of heights.I thought my hopes were fading as most other applicants sailed past, leaving me behind. But two others helped me over, and later I found out that the organizers were not looking for amazing individuals, but great team players, and this moment had shown them who would take care of others in the team.I had revealed(显示)my weakness, and in a place like the Arctic, you have to be yourself, as there is nowhere to hide. These personalities of asking for help and showing weakness are necessary for women to master.I realized that by being myself, I could succeed. I was selected for the team. I realized that I could achieve more than I ever imagined — more importantly, by sharing my story with others, I could inspire them to take a step into the new world and reveal more of their abilities.24. How did the author react on seeing the advertisement?A. She got cross.B. She was determined.C. She got frightened.D. She was hesitating.25. What did the organizers view as the most important in the selection of new hands?A. Personal quality.B. Individual-ability.C. Spirit of teamwork.D. Courage to challenge.26. What does the author think of women’s showing weakness?A. Beneficial.B. Shameful.C. Merciful.D. Disturbing.27. What’s the intention of the author in writing this passage?A. To inspire us to prepare for our future goal.B. To advise women how to turn to others.C. To make suggestions to her team members.D. To encourage people to explore the unknown.CLi ke “Titanic (1997)” and another record- breaking “Avatar (2009)”, the very first film to hit one billion yuan at China’s box office, both directed by James Cameron, American films are an unavoidable part and hold plenty of appeal for Chinese film-goers, including me. However, while American movies have gained great influence in China and become part of everyday popular culture, Chinese films have failed to win an equal amount of recognition in the U.S. market.Hollywood, known as a remarkable film production center, exported the biggest number of mainstream movies around the globe. Both its marvelous storytelling techniques and smooth production process have made it the most successful film industry in the world, gaining global acceptance. It has its own standards about the scriptwriting format throughout its filmmaking process while China has no such. Moreover, in Hollywood, a break during the production period is a must for all crew members whereas most Chinese film crew do not even allow their production team time to rest on the weekend.Besides production, content is another important aspect of Hollywood’s cultural exportation. The United States is known as a melting pot, as it is a country of immigrants. Its culture, in a way, is more diversified than oth ers’. And we can see an increased diversity in Hollywood movies over the years, especially since 2000. For example, in 2017, Hollywood blockbuster (大片) “Coco (2017)” tells the story of a Mexican boy who dreams of being a musician. Full of elements of the Mexican culture, the movie caused a global fever for Mexican music at the time. It also achieved great results in China, ranking as the 10th highest grossing (最高票房) film in the country in2017, with the box office being over one billion yuan.In contrast, China’s highest grossing film of 2017, “Wolf Warrior 2”, despite having created a new record in the country’s box office, did not get too much attenti on in the U. S. market. In fact, there is hardly any Chinese movie that has become a blockbuster inforeign markets. One of the reasons may be that most Chinese films only tell domestic stories with strong domestic elements, which is not wrong but makes it hard to attract foreign viewers due to the narrow themes.While seeking to tell Chinese stories that are able to gain global popularity is still a question for Chinese filmmakers, fortunately, the technical aspect in the Chinese film industry has been improving thanks to the abundant cash flow in the market. When that day comes, more people will get a chance to learn more about China, one of the most beautiful places on the planet, which reminds me of the famous quote from “The Shawshank Redemption (1994)”, “Hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things. And no good thing ever dies.”28.What can we conclude from the passage?A.Chinese films are not well worth watching compared with Hollywood movies. B.Chinese films are in a sense not as popular globally despite abundant cash flow. C.Who directed China’s highest grossing film of 2017, “Wolf Warrior 2” is evident. D.American films global acceptance is bound to worsen the Chinese film industry greatly. 29.Why do most Chinese films hardly attract foreign viewers?A.Because they have no knowledge of Chinese filmmakers.B.Because the Chinese culture is more diversified than others’.C.Because they only tells Chinese stories with strong domestic elements. D.Because in China there is no unusually successful hit like Hollywood Blockbuster. 30.What is the main idea of the passage?A.American films have gained great influence in China.B.How Chinese stories affect the American film market.C.The outline about the history and development of Hollywood.D.Why Chinese films fail to gain much recognition in the U. S market.31.What is the author’s opinio n towards the present situation of Chinese films? A.Contradictory. B.Objective.C.Doubtful. D.Indifferent.DDuring Amsterdam’s chaotic rush hour, nine -year-old Lotta Crok cycles to a very busy junction. “Look,” she says. “There’s traffic coming from eve rywhere. Four trams from four different directions. For a child on a bike that’s really confusing!”Lotta is the first junior cycle mayor in the world and her working area is the Dutch capital. You would think this challenge would be superfluous in a city known as the bicycle capital of the world. The number of bicycles in Amsterdam is estimated at 81,000 - more than the city’s 850,000 inhabitants - and 63% of the population cycle daily.But children who cycle in Amsterdam face challenges, Lotta says: “The three biggest problems for us are cars, cycling tourists and scooters (小型摩托). The cars take up too much space, the tourists are always swinging side to side and stop when you least expect it, and the scooters simply run you over.”Lotta became junior cycle mayor in June last year when she won a contest in which school children were asked to come up with plans to make cycling safer and more fun. Her idea was to add children’s bikes to the popular bike share programme.Since Lotta was appointed junior cycle mayor, she has been busy, giving interviews, opening cycling contests in the city and being a jury (评审员) member during the Amsterdam Light Parade, an event in which Amsterdammers decorate their bikes with lights.She is now planning a meeting with the city’s mayor to discuss ideas that children have come up with: “One of our proposals is a bicycle park where children can learn how to cycle. Right now, most of us learn a it in the street, which can be quite busy. Another idea is to create an app for tourists to teach them the rules of cycling, because most of them really don’t know.”Following the success of the Amsterdam scheme, cycle mayors around the world are now planning to appoint junior colleagues. “They see it works really well,” Boerma, the senior maj or, says. “I talk to the parents, Lotta talks to the children. And if you look at the city through the eyes of a child, you will also make it accessible for others.

On Sunday a few of us decided to take advantage of the first sunny day we’d have for ages to take a trip down to the coast to visit the penguins again. Last time I went down there was a couple of months ago and it was adull cold day. Sunday couldn’t have been more different — clear skies and sunshine made it feel like summer, although it was still -25°C.Six of us dr ove to the coast. It was the first time we’d been off the base on our own without our field assistant, so it had a slightly different feeling — more like a few friends going to the seaside than anAntarctic field trip! When we reached Windy Creek, we luckily caught sight of quite a few small flying seabirds, which are seldom seen there. Once on the sea ice we found that some of the more curious penguins had wandered over from the main group to come and check us out. We’d been told that then they werenursing their chicks and they would be more careful and nervous than lasttime, but that didn’t seem to be the case . We walked across to the maingroup which were stretched for a couple of miles along the coast. We sat downfor some sandwiches and soon found ourselves surrounded by many curious observers. Without any attackers onland, they were very brave and came within a meter of us to pose for photos.Before heading back, we spent a few hours on the sea ice watching thepenguins and their chicks, which had grown dramatically since our last visit.It was such a nice day.1. The six people did the following during the trip EXCEPT _____.A. feed the penguinsB. take pictures of the penguinsC. enjoy watching flying seabirdsD. watch the young penguins2. What does the writer mean by saying “but that didn’t seem to be the case” in the third paragraph?A. They were told a lie.B. A wrong decision was made.C. The truth was the opposite.D. They didn’t believe what they were told.3. When did the trip most probably happen?A. On a dull Sunday.B. On a warm Sunday.C. On a summer Sunday.D. On a winter Sunday.3. It’s a Saturday morning in a large courtyard. Young designers sell their creations, from fine tea sets to hand-painted earrings. I could be in east London, that is, until standard Chinese tones remind me I’m in Jingdezhen, a small Chinese city.Centuries ago, when Europeans first saw Chinese porcelain, it seemed so fine that they concluded it must have bee n made with magic and called it “ white gold ”.They couldn’t find out how it was made, but they knew where it came from:the town of Changnan. Changnan porcelain was so in demand that early traders began calling the whole country by this town name. Mixed by foreign tongues, Changnan transformed into China.Two million years after porcelain’s invention, the town, now called Jingdezhen, is still one of the world’s most important centers for porcelain production.“The people are the most important treas ure here. Their roots are deep in history.” says Zhang Jia. She’s part of a new wave of designers who havecome to Jingdezhen to learn techniques handed down and refined( 使精美 ) overa hundred generations. “This is the best place to study porcelain in China,perhaps in the entire world,” she added.Chinese artists aren’t the only ones drawn here. Founded in 2005 by Caroline Cheng, the Pottery Workshop runs classes for visitors from around the world. Paul told me that when he first visited Jingdezhen there were no street lamps and only dirty pavements. There were workshops but their goods were bought by traders and sold on elsewhere. These days, stylish cafes and bars pop up next to concept stores. At one such shop, I admired some tiny teacups like birds. With the popularity of the ottery Workshop, many of the designers are using Jingdezhen’s master craftsmen to make them because they know they offer quality, attention to detail.1. What made the writer realize that he was in China?A. Fine tea setsB. HandPDF-paintedearringsC. Standard ChineseD. Fine Chinese porcelain2. Why did early Europeans call Chinese porcelain “white gold”?A. Because it was made in China.B. Because they thought it was made with magic.C. Because they knew it came from Changnan.D. Because they liked it so much and it was in demand.3. Zhang Jia came to Jingdezhen in order to__________.A. know something about Jingdezhen’s history.B. enjoy the beautiful scenery of JingdezhenC. study techniques of making porcelainD. pay a visit to some of his foreign friends4. From what Paul said we can learn______.A. many foreign visitors came to Jingdezhen to study porcelainB. China’s young people are more interested in unique productsC. their goods were not popular in western countriesD. in the past Jingdezhen was a poor and dirty town4. A safari park is a park in which wild animals are kept. They are mainly located in east or central Africa. They often occupy a very wild area, with mountains and rivers. To visit the park and look at the animals, people have to drive around — in a car for a few of hours because the park is huge.In south Africa there is a safari park, which contains all sorts of wild animals like lions, elephants, rhinoceroses(犀牛), zebras, wild pigs, deer and giraffes.There is a wild road leading through the park, but nobody is permitted to walk on the road. Anyone traveling in the park has to go in a car because wild animals may fiercely attack people. From the car he may see almost every typesof African wildlife. Some of these are getting scarce(稀有的) because people kill them for various reasons. For example, rhinoceroses are killed for their horns(角), which are used in traditional Chinese medicines for colds and headaches. Perhaps they will be seen only in museums and books one day.Travelers may purchase food for the animals. They can feed them when theytour the park. Of course, they should not feed them in a close distance because the wild animals may attack people. In addition, they should only give proper food to the animals.A traveler may carry a gun with him in his journey. The gun is given to him by the government. However, it is not used for hunting. In fact, a seal is fixed to it. The traveler may fire at a wild beast to defend h imself in case he is attacked. However, he has to prove to the government that he has been attacked and that he has not fired at a harmless animal.1. Why is nobody permitted to walk on the wild road?A. Because the road is rough.B. Because the road is dePDFsignedforwildanimals.C. Because wild animals may attack people.D. Because people kill wild animals for various reasons.2. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. The gun is given to traveler by the government.B. The gun can be used to hunt.C. The gun is given to a traveler to defend himself.D. A traveler may fire at a wild beast.3. Which is the thing people have to do while traveling in the park?A. Carry a gun with him.B. Drive around in a car.C. Look at the animals.D. Purchase food for the animals.4. What is the passage mainly about?A. Some information about traveling in a safari park in South Africa.B. A brief introduction to wild animals in a safari park.C. A brief introduction to a safari park.D. Some information about traveling in South Africa.二、七选五5.

AThe House at Pooh Corner by A. A. MilneI bought a box set of four Winnie the Pooh books while onholiday when I was eight years old. I adored Pooh, Piglet,Tigger and Eeyore. They became very real to me and I credit themwith starting a lifelong love of reading.I still have the box set, and loved reading the stories tomy children when they were small. Part of me secretly believesA. A. Milne’s wonderful characters are all alive and well andstill having their adventures in the Hundred Acre Wood.-----Roberta Smith Jane Eyre and Wuthering Heights by Charlotte and Emily BronteI can never sepa rate Charlotte Bronte’s Jane Eyre and Emily Bronte’s Wuthering Heights when I think about books that have stayed with me. Both had a deep impact on me when I read them as a teenager.They were the first classic books I read purely for pleasure, rather than because I had to for school.I grew up in Yorkshire, not far from where the Brontes lived, so part of me really understood the depressing landscape. That close geographical connection led to a lifelong interest in the authors as much as in the books themselves.I wrote a high-school essay on the contrasts and similarities between Charlotte and Emily and their heroines. I’d be fascinated to read that essay now to see what conclusions I reached as a 17-year-old.----Jane Lee 1. What do we know about the Winnie the Pooh books?A. They are very romanticB. They are designed for childrenC. They describe summer holiday storiesD. They encourage people to have all kinds of adventures2. One reason why the writer likes Jane Eyre and Wuthering Heights is that __________.A. the stories are in the background of an area that the writer knows wellB. the stories helped the writer with her essay writingC. they were recommended by the teachers in her schoolD. they were easy-to-find classic novels3. The text intended to tell us _________.A. to introduce the books’ authorsB. to improve some classical literatureC. to explain the influence of these books on the writersD. to make comments on the books’ leading charactersBThe summer before seventh grade our family moved and I said goodbye to everything that was familiar. For my parents, it was a good thing because it meant owning a home for the first time. But it meant that I’d have to transfer to another school and that put some butterflies in my stomach.On the fi rst day of school, kids jammed the school grounds. That’s when I met Barbara. We made a nervous conversation and soon learned we were in the same class. She was funny and we had a lot in common. But she was highly critical of others and sometimes of me. She made fun of my bushy hair, my big glasses and the clothes I wore. But it seemed as though the things we had in common were more important than the annoyances.The girls in the “popular” crowd had also been exposed to her sharp tongue. One day, one of th e girls approached me while I gathered my books. “We really like you,” she said. “The only way you can play with us, though, is that you keep your distance from Barbara.”Were those girls only trying to make trouble between the two of us? Would they watch me dump (抛弃) Barbara and then dump me for laughs?From the corner of my eye, I found two of the other girls from the group. They were watching me and giggling. I wondered if I was cool enough for them. I didn’twant to make the choice they were forcing me to make. So I shook my head and said, “I don’t think so. I like Barbara and we’re good friends.” Then I gathered my books and ran away.Even though Barbara still annoyed me at times, I knew I’d done the right thing. I’d made my own decision about a girl who had befriended me when I badly needed a friend. When she moved the following year I missed her friendship terribly. But what I kept has never left me—my self-respect.4. What does the underlined phrase mean?A. Got me to feel more excited.B. Left me in a state of desire.C. Brought me more expectation.D. Made me have a nervous feeling.5. What do we know about Barbara?A. She was a girl with a sharp tongue.B. She was popular with kids at school.C. She offered others help in critical moments.D. She was very critical of her own dress.6. What was the writer asked to do by one girl?A. To join the “popular” crowd.B. To end her friendship with Barbara.C. To invite Barbara to hang out with them.D. To pretend to be cool in th e “popular” crowd.7. What lesson did the writer learn from her experience?A. Keep far away from the “popular” group.B. Avoid making friends with an annoying person.C. Keep self-respect in making your own decisions.D. Share common interest with your friends.CWhile e-books are on the rise, most people, especially young kids still prefer printed versions that they can think over for hours on end. Though that is an excellent habit, it also means cutting down precious trees. But what if the book could turn into a tree? Now thanks to a Brazilian children's book publisher, that is possible, at least for one book!The “Tree Book Tree” program is the thought of Argentina's Pequeno Editor and FCB Buenos Aires. Their first creation, Mi Papa Estuvo en la Selva (My Father Was In the Jungle), has been around in regular format for many years. In the book, ayoung boy takes the readers on an exciting journey of his father's adventures inside an Ecuadorian jungle.The book that is made from acid-free paper, printed with natural ink and hand -stitched(手工缝合), is completely recyclable. Jacaranda(蓝花楹) seeds are carefully sewn into the pages to help transform them into a tree.After a kid finishes reading the book(over and over again), he or she waters the cover and places it in a sunny area inside the house. Once the seeds sprout, the book can be planted in the dirt in any location the owner decides. From then on, the book just has to be nurtured like any other plant. Franco says they picked the Jacaranda, because “It's a tree that provides excellent shade and offers oxygen to the environment.”The only unfortunate part is that the publishers are not planning to transform their other books or even make more copies of this “tree book”. This non-commercial project was just a one-time project to make everyone aware of the resources used when producing something even as common as a book.8. What can we know from the first paragraph?A. Reading e-books is an excellent habit.B. Printed books should be thrown away.C. Printed books have consumed too many trees.D. Young kids have a special preference for e-books.9. What is special about the book Mi Papa Estuvo en la Selva?A. It can be read again and again.B. It can be easily stored for future use.C. It can be transformed into a tree if planted.D. It is about an exciting journey in the jungle.10. What can a kid do after finishing reading the book?A. Nurture the book in the dirt.B. Put the book away on a shelf.C. Use the book to protect flowers.D. Sow Jacaranda seeds into the book.11. What's the publishers' attitude towards the future of “tree books”?A. Supportive.B. Doubtful.C. Criticized.D. Positive.DResearchers at the University of Kansas say that people can accurately judge 90 percent of a stranger's personality simply by looking at the person's shoes. “Shoes convey useful information about their wearers,”the authors wrote in the new study published in the Journal of Research in Personality.Lead researcher Omri Gillath said the judgments were based on the style, cost,color and condition of someone's shoes. In the study,63 University of Kansas researchers looked at pictures showing 208 different pairs of shoes worn by the study's participants. Volunteers in the study were photographed in their most commonly worn shoes,and then filled out a personality questionnaire.Some of the results were expected:People with higher incomes most commonly wore expensive shoes,and flashier shoes were typically worn by outgoing people. However,some of the more specific results are strange enough. For example,“practical and functional”shoes were generally worn by more“pleasant”people,while ankle boots were more linked with“aggressive”personalities. The strangest of all may be that those who wore “uncomfortable looking”shoes tend to have “calm” personalities.
