Pht Research
“If yu want t be a better phtgrapher, stand in frnt f better stuff.” Phtgrapher Jim Richardsn shared it with thers. He spends a great deal f time ding pht research, lking fr great lcatins t sht.
Seeing a wnderful place is bread-and-butter phtgraphy—it’s just part f the jb. Getting there is nly half f any great phtgraph’s stry. The ther half is hw the phtgrapher prepares t capture the subject nce in frnt f it. It is believed that grundwrk is part f phtgraphy, as essential as knwing expsure and lighting r recgnizing the decisive mment t take the sht. Research sunds like a bring task fr many phtgraphers, while fr thers digging int a subject in advance is part f the pleasure.
Philsphically, phtgraphers seem t divide alng that line. On ne side are thse wh desire nly t be in the mment. On the ther side are the planners. They wuld never dream f ging ut the dr withut a full list f hw they’re ging t apprach the sht. Actually, there is a third grup nwadays. They just take phts f the whle scene and d all the creative wrk in Phtshp after the event. Mst phtgraphers d bth: research carefully t prepare their schedule and then act in the mment nce n site.
Phtgraphers shuld d a lt f research in rder t get ready fr a phtgraphic trip. This includes creating a file fr each lcatin they are due t visit. They start a file fr each place and begin t make a list f the pieces f infrmatin. Knwing what the place lks like in advance is invaluable, s it is gd t hit several Internet pht sites. Besides clueing them int the phtgraphic pssibilities f the lcatin, this can als shw what angles have already becme verused and which they shuld therefre avid. But phtgraphers will als find angles they didn’t expect frm lcatins they hadn’t imagined. Armed with these they will be better prepared t push the bundaries f what they expect.
“Abve all, I’ll lk fr places and events that are seasnal and timeless. I pen my mind t what might make a great subject fr a picture,” Jim said. “Mst travelers tend t think nly f places they’re visiting, withut lking deeper int culture, histry r meaning. I try t get in time with the rhythm f the place and in tune with its meldy. But mst f all I just want t be ready. If I’m ready, I can just abut cunt n being lucky.”
27. What des the underlined wrd “capture” in Paragraph 2 prbably mean?
A. Identify.B. Recrd.C. Arrange.D. Explre.
28. What pint des the authr make abut phtgraphers in Paragraph 3?
A They are unable t decide n the best plan f actin.
B. It is pssible fr them t adpt flexible ways f wrking.
C. The third grup is nt as imaginative as sme f the thers.
D. Sme f them refuse t try t understand the way thers wrk.

B. One shuld create pht sites in a phtgraphic trip.
C. Taking phts requires vivid imaginatin in advance.
D. It is essential t d pht research in central lcatins.
30. In the last paragraph, Jim states that ______.
A. he feels gd t visit thse histrical places
B. he refuses t spend t much time in ne place
C. he is careful abut chsing the right place t visit
D. he likes t g t places that few peple bther t visit
【答案】27. B 28. B 29. A 30. C
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了摄影师的工作特点，以及摄影师在正式进行拍摄前需要进行大量的研究工作，寻找拍摄的好地点。对许多摄影师来说，研究听起来是一项枯燥的任务，而对其他人来说，提前深入研究一个主题则是乐趣的一部分。
【27题详解】
词义猜测题。根据画线词上文“hw the phtgrapher prepares t”（摄影师如何准备）以及后文“the subject nce in frnt f it”（曾经在前面的物品）可知，摄影师的职责是拍摄或记录下被拍摄物体，所以画线词所在句意思是：摄影师如何准备在被摄物面前记录下它，即画线词意思为“记录”。A. Identify.识别；B. Recrd.记录；C. Arrange.安排；D. Explre.探索。故选B。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“On ne side are thse wh desire nly t be in the mment. On the ther side are the planners. They wuld never dream f ging ut the dr withut a full list f hw they’re ging t apprach the sht. Actually, there is a third grup nwadays. They just take phts f the whle scene and d all the creative wrk in Phtshp after the event.(一边是那些只希望活在当下的人。另一边是规划者。如果没有一份完整的拍摄计划清单，他们绝对不会想到出门。事实上，现在还有第三种人。他们只是把整个场景拍下来，然后在活动结束后用Phtshp做所有的创意工作)”可推知，作者认为摄影师可以采用灵活的工作方式。故选B。
【29题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段“Phtgraphers shuld d a lt f research in rder t get ready fr a phtgraphic trip. This includes creating a file fr each lcatin they are due t visit. They start a file fr each place and begin t make a list f the pieces f infrmatin. Knwing what the place lks like in advance is invaluable, s it is gd t hit several Internet pht sites. Besides clueing them int the phtgraphic pssibilities f the lcatin, this can als shw what angles have already becme verused and which they shuld therefre avid. But phtgraphers will als find angles they didn’t expect frm lcatins they hadn’t imagined. Armed with these they will be better prepared t push the bundaries f what they expect.(为了准备一次摄影之旅，摄影师应该做大量的调查研究。这包括为他们要访问的每个位置创建一个文件。他们在每个地方都建立了一个文件，并开始列一张信息清单。提前知道这个地方是什么样子是非常重要的，所以最好去几个互联网照片网站。除了提示他们拍摄地点的可能性外，还可以告诉他们哪些角度已经被过度使用，因此他们应该避免哪些角度。但摄影师也会从他们没有想象过的地点找到他们没有想到的角度。掌握了这些，他们将更好地准备好去突破他们所期望的界限)”可知，第四段的主要思想是要想拍出令人满意的照片，万全的准备是必须的。故选A。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Mst travelers tend t think nly f places they’re visiting, withut lking deeper int culture, histry r meaning. I try t get in time with the rhythm f the place and in tune with its meldy. But mst f all I just want t be ready.(大多数旅行者倾向于只想到他们要去的地方，而没有深入了解文化、历史或意义。我努力跟上那个地方的节奏，与它的旋律合拍。但最重要的是，我想做好准备)”可知，Jim说他对选择合适的地方去旅游很谨慎。故选C。

Lessns in the Lst Art f Listening
When was the last time yu listened t smene? And when was the last time smene really listened t yu? I nce asked peple what it meant t be a gd listener The typical respnse was a blank stare.
Of curse, technlgy plays a rle. Peple find phne calls interrupting them, preferring text r wrdless emji. Besides, schls and clleges rarely ffer classes r activities that teach careful listening. Yu can jin clubs t perfect yur public speaking, but wh attempts t achieve excellence in listening? The lud unpleasant mixture f sunds f mdern life als stps us frm listening.
Generally, listening ges beynd simply hearing what peple say. It als invlves paying attentin t hw they say it and what they d while they are saying it, in what cntext, and hw what they say is related t yu. It’s nt abut merely hlding yur peace while smene else hlds frth. Quite the ppsite. A lt f listening has t d with hw yu respnd—the degree t which yu facilitate the clear expressin f anther persn’s thughts and, in the prcess, have a clear mind f yur wn.
Gd listeners ask gd questins. They engage in explring the tpic, nt t divert attentin. There are curius questins like “Wuldn’t yu agree…?” r “Dn’t yu think…?” These questins have strng tendencies. They will greatly influence the ther persn t change his r her view. And yu’d better stay away frm sme persnal questins like “What d yu d fr a living?” r “What part f twn d yu live in?” Just try t find ut what excites peple. Ask abut the last mvie they saw r fr the stry behind a piece f jewelry they’re wearing. Als gd are expansive questins, such as, “If yu culd spend a mnth, where wuld yu g?” Research indicates that when peple wh dn’t knw each ther well ask each ther this type f questin, they feel mre cnnected than if they spend time tgether achieving a task.
Because ur brain can think a lt faster than peple can talk, be careful with the tendency t take mental side trips when yu are listening. Smart peple’s attentin is easily taken away by their wn runaway thughts. They may als assume they already knw what the ther persn is ging t say.
The reward f gd listening will certainly be mre interesting cnversatins. Researchers have fund that attentive listeners receive mre infrmatin frm speakers, even when they dn’t ask any questins. We are, each f us, the sum f what we attend t in life. The gentle vice f a mther and the criticism f a bss bth ultimately frm and shape us. And t listen prly, selectively r nt at all limits yur understanding f the wrld and prevents yu frm becming the best yu can be.
31. One f the factrs that influence listening is that ________.

【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了失落的倾听艺术，分析了导致倾听艺术遗失的一些因素、好的倾听者所具有的一些特点和倾听所带来的潜在好处。
【31题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Besides, schls and clleges rarely ffer classes r activities that teach careful listening.(此外，学校和大学很少开设教导认真聆听的课程或活动)”可知，影响聆听的因素之一是学校很少教授聆听技巧。故选C。
【32题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“Generally, listening ges beynd simply hearing what peple say. It als invlves paying attentin t hw they say it and what they d while they are saying it, in what cntext, and hw what they say is related t yu. It’s nt abut merely hlding yur peace while smene else hlds frth. Quite the ppsite. A lt f listening has t d with hw yu respnd—the degree t which yu facilitate the clear expressin f anther persn’s thughts and, in the prcess, have a clear mind f yur wn.(一般来说，倾听不仅仅是听别人说什么。这还涉及到注意他们是如何说的、他们说的时候做了什么、在什么语境下以及他们说的话与你有什么关系。这不仅仅是在别人滔滔不绝的时候保持沉默。恰恰相反。大量的倾听与你如何回应有关——你在多大程度上促进了他人思想的清晰表达，在这个过程中，你有一个清晰的自己的头脑)”可知，第三段主要讲了人们如何重新找回失传的倾听艺术。故选D。
【33题详解】

【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“The reward f gd listening will certainly be mre interesting cnversatins. Researchers have fund that attentive listeners receive mre infrmatin frm speakers, even when they dn’t ask any questins.(善于倾听的回报肯定会是更有趣的对话。研究人员发现，细心的听众会从说话者那里获得更多信息，即使他们没有问任何问题)”以及“And t listen prly, selectively r nt at all limits yur understanding f the wrld and prevents yu frm becming the best yu can be.(而不善倾听、有选择地倾听或根本不倾听，会限制你对世界的理解，阻碍你成为最好的自己)”可推知，优秀的听众为自己争取到了利益的最大化。故选B。

阅读下面短文，根据题目要求回答问题。
Mst yung peple are accustmed t having nline prfiles n their mbile devices, such as smart phnes, pads, and laptps. These devices cntain a significant amunt f infrmatin abut them and their friends and family, including cntact numbers, phts and lcatins. Since they are expsed t cyber mre frequently, yung peple need t be aware f cyber threats and have a gd understanding f cybersecurity, the measures taken t prtect systems, netwrks, devices, and prgrams frm digital attacks.
Cybersecurity experts cntinually identify the use f strng, unique passwrds as ne f their tp recmmendatins. Hwever, because yung peple have been using passwrds nline fr mst f their lives, they might nt have stpped t think abut hw unsafe their passwrds actually are. Indeed, strng passphrases, passcdes r ther features such as tuch identificatin t lck their devices can help prtect their infrmatin if their devices are lst r stlen.
Public wireless netwrks are widely used nwadays, hwever, they are nt safe. which means that anyne culd pssibly see what yu are ding n yur laptp r smart phne while yu are cnnected t them. Yung peple shuld limit what they d n public WiFi, and avid lgging in t persnal accunts like email and E-pay. If needing a safer cnnectin, they shuld cnsider using a virtual private netwrk (VPN) r a persnal mbile htspt.
Finally, infrmatin n hw t act nline is imprtant fr the safety f yung peple. They shuld be taught that they shuld add “friends” n scial media nly if they knw wh he r she is. They shuld als be made aware that psting pictures f ther peple withut their permissin might get themselves int truble.
Starting t use these methds and raising the certain awareness f cybersecurity at an early age can dramatically imprve the security f a yung persn’s nline life.
40. What is cybersecurity?
41. What is the pssible danger f cnnecting t public wireless netwrks?
42. Read the fllwing statement, underline the false part f it and explain the reasn. Experts cntinually recmmend yung peple t use passwrds frequently because they lack security awareness.
43. Please briefly present what yu can d t imprve yur cybersecurity. (abut 40 wrds)
【答案】40. Cybersecurity is the measures taken t prtect systems, netwrks, devices, and prgrams frm digital attacks. / The measures taken t prtect systems, netwrks, devices, and prgrams frm digital attacks. / The measures taken t prtect yur persnal infrmatin nline.
41. Anyne culd pssibly see what yu are ding n yur laptp r smart phne. / What yu are ding n yur mbile devices will be expsed t ther peple. / Their persnal infrmatin may leak ut (be unsafe).
42. Experts cntinually recmmend yung peple t use passwrds frequently because they lack security awareness. In spite f frequent use f passwrds nline, yung peple may nt be aware f hw unsafe their passwrds actually are. S experts cntinually recmmend them t use strng, unique passwrds.
43. Firstly, I will design strng passwrds t unlck my mbile phne. Als, when in public places, I chse t use my mbile htspt rather than public WiFi. Besides, if strangers ask me t add “friends” n WeChat, I tend t refuse. (43 wrds)
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些提高网络安全的办法。
【40题详解】
考查细节理解。根据文章第一段“Since they are expsed t cyber mre frequently, yung peple need t be aware f cyber threats and have a gd understanding f cybersecurity, the measures taken t prtect systems, netwrks, devices, and prgrams frm digital attacks.(由于他们更频繁地接触网络，年轻人需要意识到网络威胁，并充分了解网络安全，即为保护系统、网络、设备和程序免受数字攻击而采取的措施)”可知，网络安全是为保护系统、网络、设备和程序免受数字攻击而采取的措施。故答案为Cybersecurity is the measures taken t prtect systems, netwrks, devices, and prgrams frm digital attacks. / The measures taken t prtect systems, netwrks, devices, and prgrams frm digital attacks. / The measures taken t prtect yur persnal infrmatin nline.
【41题详解】
考查细节理解。根据文章第三段“Public wireless netwrks are widely used nwadays, hwever, they are nt safe. which means that anyne culd pssibly see what yu are ding n yur laptp r smart phne while yu are cnnected t them.(现在公共无线网络应用广泛，但并不安全。这意味着当你是连接公共无线网络时，任何人都可能看到你在笔记本电脑或智能手机上做什么)”可知，连接到公共无线网络可能存在的危险是任何人都可能看到你在笔记本电脑或智能手机上做什么。故答案为Anyne culd pssibly see what yu are ding n yur laptp r smart phne. / What yu are ding n yur mbile devices will be expsed t ther peple. / Their persnal infrmatin may leak ut (be unsafe).
【42题详解】
考查推理判断。所给陈述“Experts cntinually recmmend yung peple t use passwrds frequently because they lack security awareness.”意为“专家不断建议年轻人频繁使用密码，因为他们缺乏安全意识。” 根据文章第二段“Cybersecurity experts cntinually identify the use f strng, unique passwrds as ne f their tp recmmendatins. Hwever, because yung peple have been using passwrds nline fr mst f their lives, they might nt have stpped t think abut hw unsafe their passwrds actually are.(网络安全专家不断将使用强大、独特的密码作为他们的首要建议之一。然而，由于年轻人大部分时间都在网上使用密码，他们可能不会停下来思考自己的密码到底有多不安全)”可知，专家并不是不断建议年轻人频繁使用密码，而是不断建议他们使用强大、独特的密码，因为尽管经常在网上使用密码，年轻人可能没有意识到他们的密码实际上有多不安全。由此可知，所给陈述的“Experts cntinually recmmend yung peple t use passwrds frequently”部分是错误的，因为尽管经常在网上使用密码，年轻人可能没有意识到他们的密码实际上有多不安全。故答案为Experts cntinually recmmend yung peple t use passwrds frequently because they lack security awareness. In spite f frequent use f passwrds nline, yung peple may nt be aware f hw unsafe their passwrds actually are. S experts cntinually recmmend them t use strng, unique passwrds.
【43题详解】
开放题。题目让我们简要介绍你可以做些什么来提高你的网络安全。本题属于开放性试题，根据自己的理解，言之有理，符合文章内容即可。根据文章第二段关键句“Indeed, strng passphrases, passcdes r ther features such as tuch identificatin t lck their devices can help prtect their infrmatin if their devices are lst r stlen.(事实上，如果他们的设备丢失或被盗，强大的通行码、密码或其他功能，如用于锁定设备的触摸识别，可以帮助保护他们的信息)”可知，我们可以通过设计强大的密码来解锁我的设备，在设备丢失或被盗时可以帮助保护我们的信息；根据文章第三段关键句“Yung peple shuld limit what they d n public Wi Fi, and avid lgging in t persnal accunts like email and E-pay. If needing a safer cnnectin, they shuld cnsider using a virtual private netwrk (VPN) r a persnal mbile htspt.(年轻人应该限制他们在公共Wi Fi上的行为，避免登录电子邮件和E-pay等个人账户。如果需要更安全的连接，他们应该考虑使用虚拟专用网(VPN)或个人移动热点)”可知，为了提高网络安全，在公共场所，我们选择使用虚拟专用网或移动热点，而不是公共Wi Fi；根据文章倒数第二段关键句“They shuld be taught that they shuld add “friends” n scial media nly if they knw wh he r she is. They shuld als be made aware that psting pictures f ther peple withut their permissin might get themselves int truble.(应该教导他们，只有知道对方是谁，才能在社交媒体上添加“朋友”。他们还应该意识到，未经允许张贴他人照片可能会给自己带来麻烦)”可知，如果陌生人要在社交媒体上加我们为“朋友”，我们应该拒绝。故答案为Firstly, I will design strng passwrds t unlck my mbile phne. Als, when in public places, I chse t use my mbile htspt rather than public Wi Fi. Besides, if strangers ask me t add “friends” n We Chat, I tend t refuse. (43 wrds)
第二节 翻译句子(10分)
44. 屠呦呦是第一位因其工作获得诺贝尔奖的中国女科学家。(汉译英)
____________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Tu Yuyu is China’s first female scientist t win a Nbel Prize fr her wrk.
【解析】
【详解】考查时态和非谓语动词。表示“屠呦呦”为 Tu Yuyu，根据句意，描述一般事实用一般现在时，表示“第一位中国女科学家”为China’s first female scientist，表示“因其工作获得诺贝尔奖”为t win a Nbel Prize fr her wrk，修饰scientist，由序数词修饰用不定式作后置定语，结合主谓一致。故翻译为Tu Yuyu is China’s first female scientist t win a Nbel Prize fr her wrk.
45. 尽管屠呦呦年事已高，但今天她仍继续进行研究。(汉译英)
____________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Tday Tu Yuyu cntinues t cnduct research despite her age.
【解析】
【详解】考查时态和介词。根据汉语提示可知，本句为一般现在时，主语为“Tu Yuyu”，谓语为“cntinue”，后接动词不定式t cnduct research作宾语，“尽管”为介词despite，作状语，后接her age作宾语。再结合其它汉语提示，故翻译为：Tday Tu Yuyu cntinues t cnduct research despite her age.
46. 因此，他不仅是《超人》电影中的超级英雄，在现实生活中也被许多人视为超级英雄。(汉译英)
【答案】Thus, nt nly is he knwn as a superher in the Superman film, but he is als regarded as a superher t many in real life.
【解析】
【详解】考查固定句型。句子陈述目前事实，应用一般现在时，“因此”翻译为thus，“他是《超人》电影中的超级英雄”可翻译为“he is knwn as a superher in the Superman film”，“在现实生活中”翻译为“in real life”，“他被许多人视为超级英雄”为被动语态，翻译为“he is als regarded as a superher t many”，使用nt (als)将这两个分句连接起来，其中nt nly位于句首，它引导的分句使用部分倒装的语序，即“nt nly is he knwn as a superher in the Superman film”。故翻译为Thus, nt nly is he knwn as a superher in the Superman film, but he is als regarded as a superher t many in real life.
47. 只有在妻子、家人和朋友的持续支持下，他才最终找到了重新生活的意愿。（汉译英）
____________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】It was nly due t the nging supprt f his wife, family and friends that he eventually fund the will t live again.
【解析】
【详解】考查强调句型、短语、非谓语动词和时态。根据句意可知此句可用强调句型“It is/was+被强调部分+that...”表达，根据句意可知事情发生在过去，用一般过去时；“持续”用形容词nging表达，“支持”为名词supprt，“妻子、家人和朋友的持续支持”表达为the nging supprt f his wife, family and friends，“妻子、家人和朋友的持续支持”是他重新生活的意愿的原因，因此“只有在妻子、家人和朋友的持续支持下”可表达为nly due t the nging supprt f his wife，due t“因为”；“最终”为副词eventually，“找到”为动词find，作谓语，“重新生活的意愿”表达为the will t live again，不定式t live again作后置定语修饰名词the will，“他才最终找到了重新生活的意愿”表达为he eventually fund the will t live again，此句对“只有在妻子、家人和朋友的持续支持下”进行强调，故句子翻译为：It was nly due t the nging supprt f his wife, family and friends that he eventually fund the will t live again.
48. 随着新医学研究的进步，我相信像我这样的人总有一天能够再次行走。（汉译英）
【答案】With the prgress f new medical research, I believe that peple like me will be able t walk again ne day.
【解析】
【详解】考查时态、宾语从句和固定短语。根据句意可知，“with”意为“随着”，介词词性，“the prgress f…”意为“……的进步”，“new medical research”表示“新医学研究”，“With the prgress f new medical research”表示“随着新医学研究的进步”，作状语，句首单词首字母大写；“I”表示“我”，作主语，句子陈述的事客观事实，应用一般现在时，“believe”表示“相信”，作谓语，后接“that”引导从句作宾语，从句陈述的是将来发生的事，应用一般将来时，“peple like me”表示“像我这样的人”，“be able t d sth.”意为“能够做某事”，“walk again”表示“再次行走”，“ne day”表示“总有一天”，“I believe that peple like me will be able t walk again ne day”表示“我相信像我这样的人总有一天能够再次行走”。故翻译为With the prgress f new medical research, I believe that peple like me will be able t walk again ne day.
