【题目】How to look good in a photo?

What should you do if you want to have a nice photo taken? Whether it’s work or fun, the most important thing is lighting. If you get bad lighting, you will look bad, too. Know where the light is. You don’t want it below you or above you, you want it to shine directly at you.

The key thing is no shadow. If you are being photographed outside, do it in the morning, or wait till the 2 o’clock shadow has passed. Also don’t let pictures in the magazines stress you out all the pictures are taken by great photographers. And all the faces have had pimples(粉刺)taken out by computers.

Tip your head and learn what angles (角度) work with your face; everyone is different. So you have to learn what suits you. You can practice in Photo Booth as long as it is your turn, to learn what angles suit your face. Tip your neck to make it look longer, make eye contact with the camera. No one can look bad if they smile.

For long legs, point one leg into center of the frame and get the photographer to shoot looking up your body.

For just leg shots, lie upside down and raise legs in the air for the best angle. And your legs will look thinner and be in better shape.

Keep shoulders back.

Always have mouth slightly open, enough to put a penny between your lips, as this will make your lips look fuller.

Lower your eyes and then look up just as shutter(快门)is clicked for full eyes.

Delete any evidence of a less than perfect photogenic moment, everyone has off days.

【1】If you want to look good in a photo, the light should be ______.

A. below you B. above you

C. directly at you D. right behind you

【2】According to the passage, we should consider all EXCEPT ______.

A. light B. shadow

C. angles D. photographers

【3】What advice does the author give on taking photos?

A. Raise your legs as high as possible.

B. Keep your eyes down.

C. Position your shoulders straight.

D. Put a penny between lips.

【题目】Years ago, I lived in a building in a large city. The next building was only a few feet away from mine. There was a woman living there, and I had never met her, yet I could see she sat by her window each afternoon, sewing or reading.

After several months had gone by, I began to notice that her window was dirty. Everything was unclear through the dirty window. I would say to myself. “I wonder why that woman doesn’t wash her window. It really looks terrible.”

One bright morning I decided to clean my flat, including washing the window on the inside.

Late in the afternoon when I finished the cleaning, I sat down by the window with a cup of coffee for a rest. What a surprise! Across the way, the woman sitting by her window was clearly visible (看见). Her window was clean!

Then it dawned on me. I had been criticizing (批评) her dirty window, but all the time I was watching hers through my own dirty window.

That was quite an important lesson for me. How often had I looked at and criticized others through the dirty window of my heart, through my own shortcomings?

Since then, whenever I wanted to judge (评判) someone, I asked myself first, “Am I looking at him through my own dirty window?” I try to clean the window of my own world so that I may see the world about me more clearly.

【1】The writer couldn’t see everything clearly through the window because _______.

A. the writer’s window was dirty

B. the woman’s window was dirty

C. the woman lived nearby

D. the writer was near-sighted

【2】 “It dawned on me” in paragraph5 probably means “_______”.

A. it began to get dark

B. it cheered me up

C. I began to understand it

D. I knew it grew light

【3】 It’s clear that ________.

A. they lived in a small town

B. the writer often washed the window

C. they both worked as cleaners

D. the writer had never met the woman before

【4】From the passage, we can learn _______.

A. one shouldn’t criticize others very often

B. one should often make his windows clean

C. one must judge himself before he judges others

D. one must look at others through his dirty windows

Painting a picture of Picasso

Pablo Picasso was born in Spain, in 1881. His father, 【1】 was also an artist, encouraged him 2 (start) drawing at a very young age. The father soon noticed that his son was3 far more talented painter than he was, so he promised never to pick up a paintbrush again. In 1895, Picasso and his family moved to Barcelona, where he attended the school of Fine Arts. After 4 (graduate), he continued his studies in Madrid, but instead of going to class, he spent his days at the Prado Museum, copying the style of famous old painters.

When he later returned to Barcelona, Picasso started to visit the Four Cats, a café which 5 (be) popular with artists. Picasso would spend hours debating art with poets and other artists. These lively meetings at the café led to two 6 (importance) events in Picasso’s life: first, he met the poet Jaime Sabartes and the painter Carlos Casagemas, who became his closest friends; second, he decided to devote his life 7 experimenting with different styles of art instead of producing traditional art. In October 1900, Picasso 8 (leave) Barcelona for the bright lights of Paris, and his life as a wandering artist really began.

Picasso formed his own style where the world is being 9 (construct)of cubes and rectangles and finally he a huge 【10 (succeed)in the world of art.

【题目】Scientists are fond of running the evolutionary clock backward, using DNA analysis and the fossil record to figure out when our ancestors stood straight and split off from the rest of the primate evolutionary tree. But the clock is running forward as well. So where are humans headed? Here's a thoughtless assessment of possible paths, ranging from similar humans to alien-looking hybrids bred for interstellar (星际的) travel.

Different populations of a species have to be separated from each other in order for those populations to diverge into separate species. Populations are increasingly in contact with each other, leading to greater gene-mixing. It's believable that separate species would appear. Evolution is still at work and the trend may well be accelerating. Cultural diversity is fading as human society becomes more interconnected globally.

The radical king of evolution moves much more quickly than biological evolution. High-tech improvements are ranging from Supermen, to camera-equipped flying drones(遥控飞机), to pills that keep soldiers going without sleep or food for days. To date, genetic medicine has focused on therapies that work on only one person at a time. The effects of those therapies aren't carried on to future generations. Tinkering with the germline could conceivably produce a superhuman species in a single generation-but could also conceivably create a race of monsters.

Today the rapid pace of cybernetic(计算机控制论的) change has led to worry that artificial intelligence may outpace human’s natural smarts. In some fields, artificial intelligence has already bested human. We're already making machines that can be assimilated (同化) including artificial limbs, mechanical hearts, and artificial retinas (视网膜).

If humans survive long enough, there's one sure way to grow new branches on our evolutionary family tree by spreading out to other planets. If humans established a permanent settlement on other planets, the radically different living conditions would change the evolutionary equation (方程式) What will be inconceivable millions of years from now? Two intelligent species, human and machine, definitely work together to spread life through the universe.

【1】Scientists study the evolution according to .

A. different populations of a species

B. DNA analysis and the fossil record

C. cultural diversity and greater gene-mixing

D. high-tech enhancements and biological evolution

【2】 Which is NOT true about human beings' evolution?

A. New species will appear.

B. Human's evolution is faster than biological evolution

C. Cultures will become more colorful.

D. The evolution might create a race of monsters.

【3】What might bring threat to human beings?

A. Supermen. B. Monsters.

C. Alien. D. Artificial intelligence.

【4】Which of the following must happen in the future?

A. Humans survive long enough.

B. Humans spread out to other planets.

C. Human and machine work together.

D. Living conditions change the evolutionary equation.
