题目内容
A Chilean(智利)soap-opera star, a beauty from Ancient Pompeii and a freckled (雀斑的)boyish girl hardly make an average beauty show line-up.
The first world-wide digital beauty contest to the surprise of many online fans was won by a woman who is virtually(虚拟) real flesh and bones. "Virtual models are not the anti-real, they are a different representation of reality," said Franz Cerami, the organizer of Miss Digital World (数字世界小姐).
Each of the contestants had to provide the charming photo of high degrees, with date of birth and body measurements.
Chilean Rodolfo Perez Ayala decided that no figure of his imagination could beat the beauty of his wife, Katty Kowaleczko, so he hired artist Flavio Parra to recreate her. Kowaleczko, who plays Paula Sandoval in the popular Latin American soap opera Tentacion, was transformed into Katty-ko and won the digital contest with more than 17,000 online votes.
"I'm so happy Katty-ko won. I think her strength is her similarity to a real woman - not too luxurious or exposed", Kowaleczko, 40, told reporters. "Her beauty is in her simplicity." Kowaleczko was not afraid of being replaced by her 3D clone in movies or theatres, but hoped she would become "a sort of ambassador(使者) of Chilean beauty".
Cerami said Latin American interest in Miss Digital World had greatly increased since Katty-ko joined the contest, which attracted about 3600 entries from countries from Iran to Australia and even from the ancient Roman empire.
"Pompea" was the digital reconstruction of a young woman killed by the outbreak of Vesuvius in 79 AD．"She was a slave, but also a rich man's lover. When her body was discovered, many jewels and a bangle(手镯) with the writing 'from the master to his servant girl' were found" said Genny Tortora, a professor at the University of Salerno who led Pompea's creative team.
Other contestants included Kaya, the most realistic model with digital freckles, pouty (噘起的) lips and upturned nose.
Now, Cerami's dream is to manage a form of virtual beauties, introducing them for calendars, games, ads, and movies. One is even reported to be heading for Playboy's front page.
The winner in the first Miss Digital World contest was ______.
A．a star who performed in some soap operas
B．a beauty who came from Chilean
C．a beauty who was from the ancient Roman empire
D．a made-up beauty based on a real woman.
Which group of the following are the names for the digital beauties mentioned in the passage?
A．Katty-ko, Pompea, Kaya.
B．Katty Kowaleczko, Pompea, Playboy.
C．Flavio Parra, Genny Tortora, Franz Cerami.
D．Rodolfo Perez Ayala, Pompea, Franz Cerami
The digital beauty “Pompea” was created by ______.
A．Genny Tortora B．a group of people
C．by a young woman D．a rich man
What the organizer of Miss Digital World wants to do next is ______.
A．sell pictures of beauties for calendars B．hold another contest
C．put the digital beauties into practical use. D．start an ads company
【小题1】D
【小题2】A
【小题3】B
【小题4】C
解析:
这是一篇时尚类短文。本文讲叙的是：首届“数字世界小姐”选美，智利虚拟美女“凯蒂”夺冠。
【小题1】 事实细节题。根据第二段“was won by a woman who is virtually real flesh and bones”可知：首届“数字世界小姐” 最后的赢家是一位以真人为原型的虚拟美女。
【小题2】 事实归纳题。短文中提到的三位“数字美女”，根据第四段“以凯蒂·科瓦列兹为原型塑造的“凯蒂”在网上投票中以1.7万票赢得此次数字小姐大赛的冠军”一句，可知她的名字是“凯蒂”；倒数第三段和倒数第二段分别提到：“庞贝尔”是利用数字技术“复活”的一名公元79年在维苏威火山爆发中死去的年轻女子；其他参赛者还包括最具现实主义风格的虚拟美女“凯亚”，由此可判断出另外两个名字是“庞贝尔”和“凯亚”。
【小题3】推断题。短文倒数第三段“Genny Tortora, a professor at the University of Salerno who led Pompea's creative team.”的意义是：热尼·托尔托拉，萨勒诺大学的教授，他是“庞贝尔”设计小组的领导人。根据此句意义可推测“庞贝尔”是由集体成员创作的。
【小题4】细节理解题。短文最后一段的意义是：赛拉米现在的梦想是成立一个虚拟美女公司，将她们“推销”给挂历、游戏、广告和电影等产业。据报道，已经有一位美女登上了《花花公子》的头版。由此可概括为“practical use”。

小学生10分钟应用题系列答案Last year, I lived in Chile for half a year. I lived with a Chilean family and had the responsibilities of any Chilean teenager. I had good days and bad days I didn’t understand.
Chuquicamata, my host community, is a mining camp. When I arrived there, I was scared. It was so different from what I was used to. There were lots of dogs on the streets, and there was no downtown, few smoothly paved streets, and little to do for entertainment. Rain was not seen very often, earthquakes and windstorms were frequent.
I had studied Spanish for two and a half years and was always one of the best students in my class. But in my first week in Chile I was only able to communicate and needed one person to whom I could explain my shock. I couldn’t speak the thoughts in my head and there were so many.
Most exchange students experience this like me. Culture shock presents itself in everything from increased aggression (敌对心理) towards the people to lack of appetite(食欲). I was required to overcome all difficulties.
As time passed, everything changed. I began to forget words in English and to dream in Spanish and love Chilean food. I got used to not depending on expensive things for fun. Fun in Chuquicamata was being with people. And I took math, physics, chemistry, biology, Spanish, art, and philosophy.
But the sacrifices were nothing compared to the gain. I learned how to accept and to succeed in another culture. I now have a deeper understanding of both myself and others.
