11、nnect with each other in bad weather.A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned7. Volunteering is one way to begin a photography career.A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned答案与题解：1. B 在第二段第三行，作者提到贝尔特曾经为英格兰湖区的美景拍过照片.那她自然就去过英格兰。因此，这一题题干的表述( 贝尔特从没去过英格兰) 明显是错误的。2. A 第一段第三行说到南极洲是贝尔特唯一没亲眼见过的大洲，那么她必然没去过南极洲。所以这一题题干的表述

12、（贝尔特从没去过南极洲) 是正确的。3. C 第一段第一行提到贝尔特从1978 年就开始为国家地理杂志工作，但是并无其他信息，所以我们无从得知在1978 年之前. 贝尔特是否还为其他杂志工作过。所以我们既没法说贝尔特只为国家地理一家杂志工作过，也没法说贝尔特在很多家杂志工作过。因而，我们无法在文中找到这一题题干所表述的信息( 贝尔特在很多家杂志工作过)，答案只能是C。4. A 在第二段第二行，作者提到贝尔特曾经在约旦的古城佩特拉进行过拍摄，这迎合题干的表述(佩特拉是一座古老的约旦城市)。所以答案为A。5. B 在第三段第一行第二句话，作者提到：在语言不通的情况下，贝尔特找到了和不同年龄、不同民

13、族的人沟通的方法。而魍千中的表述(贝尔特只能和会说英语的人沟通)和文中的信息完全不符，所以答案为B。6. A 在第四段第七行，作者提到：一起体验坏天气可以帮助人们增进相互间的交流。这和题干的表述（人们在坏天气下可以相互沟通)基本一致.所以答案为A。7. A 第五段第一行提到贝尔特为希望从事摄影行业的人提供了一些建议：当个志愿者为没钱请专业摄影师的地方机构拍摄照片。这和题干的表述(做一名志愿者是开始摄影生涯的一种方式）基本吻合，所以答案为A。译文第一篇镜头中的世界让我们来认识摄影师艾妮格里菲斯贝尔特。贝尔特从1978 年以来就一直在为国家地理杂志拍摄照片，她的拍摄足迹几乎遍布世界上的所有大洲。事

14、实上，南极洲是贝尔特唯一没亲眼见过的大洲。贝尔特的拍摄作品因美轮美奂和质量上乘而广为人知，它们也反映了世界上不同的文化和地区。贝尔特曾经为约旦古城佩特拉和英格兰湖区的美景拍过照片。最近，在一本介绍北美未开发的自然区域的书中出现了她的摄影作品。无论去哪里，贝尔特都在所到之处拍下人物照片。贝尔特已经找到在语言不通的情况下和不同年龄、不同民族的人进行沟通的方法。“我的工作的最大优势就是可以走进人们的生活，” 她说，“照相机就像通行证一样，而且我常常由于人们迅速地接纳我而被搞得手足无措！”知道如何打开话题帮助贝尔特成为了一名成功的摄影师，但是专家们声称任何人都能学会如何同陌生人打交道。当语言相通时，打

15、招呼和相互寒暄能使陌生人之间感到更舒适。当语言不通时，微笑就会变得很有用。彼此的共同点也有助于打开话题。比如，贝尔特常和她的两个孩子一起旅行，所以当她为孩子们或孩子们的父母拍照时，他们就有了相同之处： 家庭联系。甚至一起体验坏天气也可以帮助人们增进相互间的交流。如果你正在考虑从事摄影行业，贝尔特对此有一些建议。你可以当个志愿者为没钱请专业摄影师的地方机构拍摄照片。你也可以用诚实的态度仔细端详自己最好的摄影作品。如果你是一位真正的摄影师，你的作品会因为你的个人特色和精湛的技艺而变得出类拔萃。贝尔特也推荐向专业摄影师的作品学习。记住，当你下一次看到漂亮的照片时，也许你看的正是艾妮格里菲斯贝尔特的作

16、品。当你下一次遇见陌生人时，不要害怕打开话题。你为沟通所做的一切都是非常值得的。第十二篇Starting a New Tradition Shantelle Davis is a nine-year-old gir1 in New York.

26、 Children receive presents at the end of Kwanzaa.A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned7.Everyone thinks Kwanzaa is an important holiday.A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned答案与题解：1. A 第三段第二行我们可以发现：超过500万的非洲裔美国人每年从 12 月26 日到1月1日庆祝宽扎节。 所以题干的表述（人们在年底庆祝宽扎节)县正确的，答案为A。2. A 从第四段前四行所述的内容中我们可以发现：为了向自己的文化和传统致敬，1966

27、 年美国人马拉那卡林加为非洲裔姜国人创立了宽扎节。 因此，题干的表述(宽扎节是为非洲裔美国人创立的节日)是正确的，答案为A。3. B 在第二题中我们知道宽扎节创立于1966年，并且文中第六段第七行也提到：一些人认为宽扎节的历史并不久远。所以，从以上两点我们可以得出结论：题干的表述( 宽扎节的历史非常悠久)是错误的，答案为B。4. C 从整篇文章中我们知道宽扎节最初是为非洲裔美国人创立的，之后宽扎节的传统又流传到诸如加拿大、牙买加等其他国家( 这一信息可以从第四段最后一行得到) 。但是文中并未提及非洲人民是否也庆祝宽扎节，因此这一题的题干信息(非洲人民庆祝宽扎节)并没在文中给出，答案为C。5.

28、A 在第三段最后两行中，作者提到：这段时间里非洲裔美国人和家人待在一起缅怀历史和非洲的祖先。 所以题干中的表述（宽扎节期间人民花很多时间和家人待在一起)是正确的。答案为A。6. A 在第五段最后两行中，作者提到：在宽扎节的最后一夜会有一顿非洲风味的大餐，并且孩子们会收到小礼物。所以.题干的表述( 孩子们在宽扎节即将结束时收到礼物)是正确的，答案为A 。7. B 在第六段第二行末尾， 作者提到：由于宽扎节的历史并不久远， 一些人认为它并不是一十真正的节日。从这里我们可以看出题干的表述(每个人都认为宽扎节是一个重要的节日)不正确，故答案为B。译文第十二篇 开始新的传统珊特尔戴维斯是一位九岁的纽约小

29、女孩。12 月的一个寒夜，珊特尔戴维斯的家人都围站在餐桌边看着她点亮一支蜡烛。水果蔬菜篮子和玉米穗装饰着这个餐桌，这些都是给珊特尔和她的两个兄弟的。“这支蜡烛代表umoja，在非洲这个词意味着在一起广，”珊特尔说，“这是家庭中最重要的事。”今晚是宽扎节的第一个晚上，珊特尔正和她的家人待在一起。超过500万的非洲裔美国人每年从12月26日到1月1日庆祝宽扎节。这段时间里他们和家人聚在一起缅怀他们的历史和非洲的祖先。宽扎节非常独特，因为它是由一个人创立的。在1966 年，一个名叫马拉那 卡林加的美国人想要为非洲裔美国人创立一个节日来向他们的文化和传统致敬。因此他利用非洲的语言和习俗来创造一个新的传

30、统。他将节日命名为宽扎节，这个词来源于非洲语言斯瓦西里语；在斯瓦西里语中，宽扎节的意思是“最初的果实。”一开始，只有少数一些美国家庭在家进行小规模庆祝。现如今学校和公共场所也有宽扎节的庆祝活动。并且宽扎节已经流传到诸如加拿大、牙买加等其他国家。一个放着七支蜡烛的烛台是宽扎节的主要标志 每支蜡烛代表宽扎节一个信条。每天晚上都会由一个家庭成员点亮一支蜡烛，并谈论这支蜡烛所代表的信条： 在一起，做自己，互帮互助，懂得分享，拥有目标，有创造性和有信仰。这些蜡烛有红的、黑的和绿的，这是宽扎节的颜色。父母们也为逝去的家庭成员斟上喝的以此来纪念他们。 在宽扎节的最后一夜会有一顿非洲风味的大餐，并且孩子们会收

31、到小礼物。现如今人们能买到宽扎节的贺卡和特制的宽扎节的衣服。商店里销售宽扎节的蜡烛和烛台。由于宽扎节的历史并不久远，一些人认为它并不是一个真正的节日：但是也有人说习俗和庆祝仪式总在发生变化，宽扎节向我们展现了人们生活中重要的东西。珊特尔戴维斯说她喜欢宽扎节，因为它很有趣。“但是每年我也会学到新的东西，”她谈道。阅读理解第三篇：Shark attack!Craig Rogers was sitting on his surfboard ,scanning the distance for his next wave, when his board suddenly stopped moving.
