The Stories Behind 3 of the Photos from Our Pictures of the Year
Each year, National Geographic will publish a special issue to showcase some of the impressive images taken around the globe to celebrate the high-quality photography. This year, 49 were selected as the best photos of the year out of millions of images, and the photo editors give a glimpse behind the scenes of 3 images included in 2022 Pictures of the Year annual special issue.
Qaanaaq, Greenland//Kiliii Yüyan
Photographer Kiliii Yuyan is no stranger to documenting the daily lives of native peoples and the issues they face around the world. He commits himself to capturing surprising and unique images for each story while his colleague Mallory has quit in their tracks. In his story, two cousins push strollers (婴儿车) across a snowy plain in Greenland on their way to annual dogsled races. The story itself challenges readers to think about how to treat their ecosystem without destroying it and gives more insight into the daily lives of Inughuit women.
Canary Islands, Spain//Carsten Peter
It’s hard to capture the speed, texture, and sense of danger of lava flowing from a volcanic eruption, but that’s what photographer Carsten Peter achieved with this image. He documented the 85-day eruption for National Geographic, then returned to focus on the damage and on the scientific fieldwork that had been done once the slow-moving lava had cooled.
Minneriya. Sri Lanka//Brent Stirton
Photographer Brent Stirton provided a window into these animals’ lives, which she hopes will increase awareness and stir up sympathy through the photo.
The image was tough to capture not only because Stirton needed to get close to the wild animals for the frame but also because it was a challenging time to work in Sri Lanka. The government was collapsing in economic decline. “I think there’s an opportunity to show people a side of animals they may have not seen before,” she says.

Jason Ahn’s favorite parts of Marvel’s (漫威) Iron Man movies are scenes showing inventions being developed. Many of these scenes are similar to the experiences he went through himself before winning national recognition for an innovative classroom whiteboard design.
For Ahn, 17, a rising senior at Ames High School in Iowa in the US, there was a good month’s worth of nights staying up until 4 am — before going to school the next day — during which he first gained the idea for an auto rolling and erasing whiteboard, or ARE Board. He then submitted it to the Raytheon Technologies Invention Convention US Nationals.
All that work paid off for Ahn in 2022 when he was among inventors from across the country to win awards at the competition.
In his physics class — and throughout most of his time in school — he noticed his teachers struggle with having to write and erase (擦) the same notes for each of their classes; that was if they could even reach the top of their traditional whiteboards. However, electronic whiteboards are too expensive.
He made a working prototype (原型) of a whiteboard on a motorized (机动的) conveyor belt system that can be scrolled (滚动) up and down. It is more time and space efficient than a traditional whiteboard. He wanted to make something similar to an electronic whiteboard but far cheaper and easy to use.
“I’ve seen my friends kind of joking, ‘Isn’t this kind of a step backward? We’ve evolved all the way to electronic whiteboards’.” Ahn said.
“In some cases, it’s good to keep the traditional aspects and characteristics of some fundamental tools,” because markers and erasers are more tangible (有形的) and accessible to people, he added.
One of the awards he won at the competition provided him with a patent lawyer to help him get a patent application with the fee covered. He’d be willing to sell a patent to a company.
Ahn thinks of things in daily life that might make the world a better place. “I’m making a notebook of all the ideas that I’m thinking of,” he said.
4. What about Marvel’s Iron Man movies interests Ahn the most?
A. Iron Man’s hi-tech suit. B. The hi-tech fighting scenes.
C. The various hi-tech inventions used. D. The scenes of hi-tech products being made.
5. What inspired Ahn to invent ARE Board?
A. His teachers’ struggles to erase whiteboards. B. An electronic whiteboard he came across.
C. A motorized conveyor belt system he found. D. His cooperation with other inventors.
6. What advantages does Ahn’s ARE Board have over other electronic whiteboards?
A. It is smaller and lighter. B. It is more futuristic.
C. It is cheaper and more user-friendly. D. It is expensive.
7. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A. How to Upgrade Your Classroom
B. An Inspirational Inventor Creates Motorized Whiteboard
C. Teenagers Can Make a Big Difference
D. ARE Board — Whiteboard’s Bright Future
【答案】4. D 5. A 6. C 7. B

People perform graceful moves, all while standing on a bamboo strip in the river. You may think it’s a scene from an art movie, but actually it is a form of intangible cultural heritage: bamboo drifting(独竹漂).
Bamboo drifting dated back to over 2,000 years ago in the Chishui River area of Guizhou. During the Qin Dynasty,the Bozhou district of Zunyi city was known for its high-quality nanmu. It was in great demand by the royal court more than 2,000 kilometers to the north. With no transportation along the Chishui River， people had to stand on one log(原木)to drift down the river. Later, local people began to compete along the way and the game of wood drifting was born. In the Qing Dynasty, wood drifting became bamboo drifting because of bamboo’s lower price.
Now, communities in Guizhou hold bamboo drifting competitions every year during Dragon Boat Festival. Due to the great strength and balance it takes for one to get the hang of this act, bamboo drifting was included in the national intangible cultural heritage list.
Yang Liu,24,is an inheritor(继承人) of bamboo drifting.Yang said the most challenging part of bamboo drifting was keeping one’s balance. “I fell in the water several times when I was practising,” she said.
But the love for the ancient skill keeps Yang going. In the past 17 years, she has drifted all year round, in winter cold and summer heat.
Yang also produces new ideas when spreading the culture of bamboo drifting. For example, she connects dance with bamboo drifting to make it more graceful and wears hanfu when performing, creating a beautiful feel. In 2020, Yang registered on social media platforms and posted her videos. “I want to spread it to other countries so that more people around the world will like Chinese culture,” she told China Daily.
8. Why did bamboo drifting replace wood drifting?
A. The bamboo was cheaper. B. The bamboo was more beautiful.
C The bamboo was more convenient. D. The bamboo was much easier to control.
9. What does the underlined phrase “get the hang of” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Prepare. B. Change. C. Master. D. Improve.
10. What is the most difficult for bamboo drifting in Yang Liu’s opinion?
A. Designing moves. B. Transporting goods.
C. Choosing bamboos. D. Keeping balance.
11. What can we infer about Yang Liu?
A. She inherits bamboo drifting creatively.
B. She learned bamboo drifting very easily.
C. She has become the leader of bamboo drifting.
D. She began learning bamboo drifting at 17.
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. D 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了非物质文化遗产竹林漂流的历史和传承。
8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“In the Qing Dynasty, wood drifting became bamboo drifting because of bamboo’s lower price.（到了清代，由于竹子的价格较低，木漂变成了竹漂。）”可知，到了清代，由于竹子的价格低于楠木，所以独“木”漂变成了独“竹”漂。故选A项。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段第二句的“bamboo drifting was included in the national intangible cultural heritage list.（因此被列入国家非物质文化遗产名录）”可知，Due to the great strength and balance it takes for one to get the hang of this act（由于竹漂需要巨大的力量和平衡才能……）与之互为因果关系，结合句意可知，划线部分数与C项Master“掌握”的意思相近。故选C项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段第二句“ Yang said the most challenging part of bamboo drifting was keeping one’s balance. （杨说，竹漂最具挑战性的部分是保持平衡。）”可知，她认为独竹漂最具有挑战性的是保持身体平衡。故选D项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段一、二句“Yang also produces new ideas when spreading the culture of bamboo drifting. For example, she connects dance with bamboo drifting to make it more graceful and wears hanfu when performing, creating a beautiful feel. （在传播竹林漂流文化的过程中，杨也产生了新的想法。例如，她将舞蹈与竹漂结合起来，使其更加优雅，表演时穿着汉服，创造出一种美丽的感觉。）”可推断，她创造性地继承了这一古老的技艺。故选A项。

In a country where over 80% of residents live in public housing, a government commitment to sustainable urban design could have huge influence. And when it’s a tropical country like Singapore where convenience and air conditioning are a way of life, the impact could be greater still.
Promising 42,000 new homes across five residential districts, the eco-town of Tengah will be the 24th new settlement built by Singapore’s government since World War II. It is, however, the first with centralized cooling, automated trash collection and a car-free town center, with which environment lovers hope to offer a roadmap for reducing carbon emissions in the Southeast Asian city-state.
The development is named as “Forest Town” by officials, due to its abundant greenery and public gardens. Once home to brickmaking factories, and later used for military training, the 2.7-square-mile site has been reclaimed by a forest in recent years. A 328-foot-wide ecological “corridor” will be maintained through its center, providing safe passage to wildlife and connecting a water catchment area on one side to a nature reserve on the other.
The project has proven a new plan for urban planners supporting green design principles and “smart” technology, according to Chong Fook Loong, group director for research and planning at Singapore’s Housing and Development Board, the agency overseeing the country’s public housing. “Tengah is a new start,” he said in a video interview, explaining that roads and parking are being pushed beneath the town center. “We’re going for the ideal concept of separated traffic, with everything underground and then the ground level totally freed up for pedestrians — for people. So, it’s a very safe environment for all.”
“We want a town that allows walking and cycling in a very user-friendly manner,” he added, saying that cycling has “taken off” in Singapore in the “last three to five years especially”. The master plan will see the installation of electric vehicle charging stations.
12. What is special about the 24th new settlement?
A. It can house 42,000 people. B. It will be well equipped.
C. It will be built by the government. D. It will be environmentally friendly.
13. Which of the following might be the design of the forest town?
A.
B.
C.
D.
14. What can we learn from Chong Fook Loong’s words?
A. A parking lot will put in the town center.
B. Passers-by and traffic will be in different levels.
C. Bikes will be able to fly in the near future.
D. All masters will install charging stations.
15. What is the best title for the text?
A. Ways to reduce carbon emissions B. A green roadmap for Singapore
C. An eco “smart” city planning D. A smart electric vehicle technology
【答案】12. D 13. A 14. B 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了新加坡政府提供了一个支持绿色设计原则和“智能”技术的新计划，对新加坡进行可持续城市设计。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“It is, however, the first with centralized cooling, automated trash collection and a car-free town center, with which environment lovers hope to offer a roadmap for reducing carbon emissions in the Southeast Asian city-state.(然而，这是第一个拥有集中冷却、自动垃圾收集和无车城镇中心的城市，环境爱好者希望通过这个城市中心为东南亚城市国家减少碳排放提供一个路线图)”可知，第24个新定居点将是环保的。故选D项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“A 328-foot-wide ecological “corridor” will be maintained through its center, providing safe passage to wildlife and connecting a water catchment area on one side to a nature reserve on the other.(一条328英尺宽的生态“走廊”将贯穿其中心，为野生动物提供安全通道，并将一边的集水区与另一边的自然保护区连接起来)”可知，走廊贯穿在森林镇中，连接集水区和自然保护区。对比四个设计图，A项符合。故选A项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“We’re going for the ideal concept of separated traffic, with everything underground and then the ground level totally freed up for pedestrians — for people.(我们追求的是分离交通的理想概念，所有东西都在地下，然后地面层完全解放出来供行人使用——供人们使用)”可知，我们可以从庄福龙的话中知道行人和交通将处于不同的水平面。故选B项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，根据第二段的“It is, however, the first with centralized cooling, automated trash collection and a car-free town center, with which environment lovers hope to offer a roadmap for reducing carbon emissions in the Southeast Asian city-state.(然而，这是第一个拥有集中冷却、自动垃圾收集和无车城镇中心的城市，环境爱好者希望通过这个城市中心为东南亚城市国家减少碳排放提供一个路线图)”结合倒数第二段“The project has proven a new plan for urban planners supporting green design principles and “smart” technology, according to Chong Fook Loong, group director for research and planning at Singapore’s Housing and Development Board, the agency overseeing the country’s public housing.(新加坡住房发展局负责研究与规划的集团总监昌福龙表示，该项目为城市规划者提供了一个支持绿色设计原则和“智能”技术的新计划)”可知，本文主要讲述了新加坡生态“智能”城市计划，所以“An eco “smart” city planning (一个生态“智能”城市规划)”是本文最佳标题。故选C项。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道，主要讲的是在过去的十年里，生活在北京的希腊摄影师George Doupas一直在拍摄这座城市，捕捉它的美丽，并在网上和展览中分享这些照片。
【41题详解】
考查名词的复数。句意：在过去的十年里，他一直在拍摄这座城市，捕捉它的美丽，并在网上和展览中分享这些照片。空前有these，空格处用复数photos，故填photos。
【42题详解】
考查冠词。句意：“这真正代表了北京——新与旧，完美地融合在一起，”Doupas一边说，一边展示了他拍摄的智化寺的照片。智化寺是一座美丽的明朝建筑。building是可数名词的单数形式，表泛指，前面要加不定冠词，beautiful是辅音音素开头，因此不定冠词用a，故填a。
【43题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意：它位于现代办公大楼Galaxy SOHO前面，以编织桥梁和连锁通道为特色。空格处是which引导的定语从句中的谓语，句子描述客观事实，时态用一般现在时，which指代的先行词building是单数，因此空格处用第三人称单数，故填features。
【44题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意：北京拥有丰富的历史遗产，自明朝以来一直是中国传统文化的重要中心。由since可知，句子时态用现在完成时，主语Beijing是一个地方，因此空格处是has been，故填has been。
【45题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：与此同时，他也惊叹于这座高端商业与多种产业相结合的现代化城市。句中谓语是is，空格处用非谓语动词，city和combine之间是主谓关系，因此空格处用现在分词表主动，故填combining。
【46题详解】
考查副词。句意：他说：“看到一个城市以如此惊人的速度发展，并投入如此多的精力来保护它的过去，这是令人着迷的，这就是我决定在这里追求事业的原因。”空格处用副词incredibly修饰形容词rapid，incredibly意为“非常地”，故填incredibly。
【47题详解】
考查表语从句。句意：他说：“看到一个城市以如此惊人的速度发展，并投入如此多的精力来保护它的过去，这是令人着迷的，这就是我决定在这里追求事业的原因。”空格处引导的是表语从句，根据语境可知，句子表示“看到一个城市以如此惊人的速度发展，并投入如此多的精力来保护它的过去，这是令人着迷的，这就是我决定在这里追求事业的原因”，空格处意为“为什么”，用why引导表语从句，故填why。
【48题详解】
考查过去分词。句意：Doupas致力于他在中国的摄影师生涯，他希望成为中国和西方之间的桥梁。句中谓语是hopes，空格处用非谓语动词，be dedicated to是固定短语，意为“致力于”，因此空格处用dedicated作状语，位于句首，首字母大写，故填Dedicated。
【49题详解】
考查介词。句意：Doupas致力于他在中国的摄影师生涯，他希望成为中国和西方之间的桥梁。serve as是固定短语，意为“充当”，因此空格处是介词as，故填as。
【50题详解】

第四部分：写作(共两节，满分35分)
第一节 短文改错(共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分)
51. 假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共有10处语言错误，每句中最多有两处错误。要求你在错误的地方增加、删除或修改某个单词。

We’ve all heard of the saying, “Reading good books are like having a conversation with the finest men of the past centuries.” By reading books, we can know which is going on at home and abroad. In fact, reading has many benefits. It can bring us knowledges and pleasure. From reading the number of books, we can get a lot. Reading books enables us broaden our horizons, made our life colorful and meaningful. We can not only understand how to live in a happy life and also learn new ways of doing things. When we faced difficulties, we can solve them peacefully. As someone puts it, “A good book is exact a good friend.”
【答案】1. are→is
2. which→what
3. knowledges→knowledge
4. the→a
5. broaden前加to
6. From→Through
7. made→making
8. 去掉live后的in
9. faced→face
10. exact→exactly

【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。讲述了阅读的好处。
【详解】1.考查主谓一致。句意：我们都听过这样一句话:“读好书就像和过去几个世纪最优秀的人交谈。”分析句子结构可知，主语Reading good books为动名词作主语，谓语动词应该用单数形式。故将are改为is。
2.考查宾语从句。句意：通过读书，我们可以知道国内外发生了什么事。分析句子结构可知，which引导的是宾语从句，从句中缺少主语，其意义为“……的事物”，不表示“哪一个”，应该用what引导。故将which改为what。
3.考查不可数名词。句意：它能给我们带来知识和快乐。分析句子结构可知，knowledge意为“知识”，为不可数名词，没有复数形式。故将knowledges改为knowledge。
4.考查冠词。句意：通过阅读大量的书，我们可以得到很多。分析句子结构可知，此处考查固定搭配：the number of意为“…数目”，a number of意为“许多的”，根据句意，此处应用a number of符合语境。故将the改为a。
5.考查不定式。句意：读书使我们开阔视野，使我们的生活丰富多彩，有意义。分析句子结构可知，本句已有谓语动词enables，所以broaden应该用非谓语形式，此处是固定搭配：enable sb. to do sth.意为“使某人能够做某事”。故在broaden前加to。
6.考查介词。句意：通过阅读大量的书，我们可以得到很多。分析句子，根据句意可知，from意为“从...”，而句中表达“通过阅读大量的书”之意，应该用by。故将From改为By。
7. 考查非谓语动词。句意：读书使我们开阔视野，使我们的生活丰富多彩，有意义。分析句子结构可知，本句已有谓语动词enables，所以make用非谓语形式，它的逻辑主语是Reading books，两者是主动关系，应该用现在分词形式。故将made改为making。
8. 考查介词。句意：我们不仅可以了解如何过上幸福的生活，还可以学习新的做事方式。分析句子结构可知，此处是固定搭配：live a happy life意为“过上幸福的生活”，in是多余的。故将in去掉。
9. 考查动词时态。句意：当我们遇到困难时，我们可以和平地解决它们。分析句子结构可知，此处描述的是客观状态，所以应该用一般现在时。故将faced改为face。
10. 考查副词。句意：正如有人所说，“一本好书就是一个好朋友。”分析句子结构可知，exact修饰的是动词is，应该用副词修饰。故将exact改为exactly。
