But he was not a good artist. So he invented a very simple camera. He put it in a window of his house and took a picture of his garden. That was the first photo.The next important date in the history of photography was in 1837. That year, Daguere, another Frenchman,took a picture of his reading room. He used a new kind of camera in a different way. In his picture you could see everything very clearly, even the smallest thing. This kind of photo was called a Daguerreotype.Soon, o ther people began to use Daguerre’s way. Travelers brought back wonderful photos from all around the world. People took picture of famous buildings, cities and mountains.In about 1840, photography was developed. Then photographers could take picture of people and moving things. That was not simple. The photographers had to carry a lot of film and other machines. But this did not stop them, for example, some in the United States worked so hard.Mathew Brady was a famous American photographer. He took many picture of great people. The pictures were unusual because they were very lifelike(栩栩如生的).Photographers also became one kind of art by the end of the 19th century. Some photos were nor just copies of the real world. They showed and feelings, like other kinds of art.4. The first photo taken by Niepce was a picture of ____________A．his business B．his house C．his garden D．his window5. The Daguerrotype was____________.A．a Frenchman B．a kind of picture C．a kind of camera D．a photographer6. If a photographer wanted to take pictures of moving things in the year of 1840, he had to__________.A．watch lots of films B．buy an expensive cameraC．stop in most cities D．take many films and something else with him.CWhen a storm is coming, most people leave the area as quickly as possible and head for safety. But there are a few people who will get into their cars and go straight for the center of the storm．These people are willing to risk being killed by floods or 100-Kilometer- an-hour winds for the excitement of watching the storm close up．"Storm chasing (追逐)" is becoming an increasingly popular hobby, especially in the Midwest of the United States, where there are frequent storms between March and July．A storm chaser begins the dayby checking the Internet for the latest weather reports, and then drives up to l,000 kilometers to where the storm will be and waits for it to develop．Although anyone can do it, storm chasing is extremely dangerous. The power of a big storm can throw a cow into the air or destroy a whole house in seconds．Storm chasers are also often hurt in accidents caused by driving in a heavy rain．If you are a beginner, it is much safer to join a group for storm - chasing vacations during the storm season．Even then, storm chasing is not all adventure and excitement．"Storm chasing is 95％driving," says Daniel Lynch, who spends most of his summer storm-chasing．"Sometimes you can sit around for hours waiting for something to happen, and all you get is blue sky and a few light showers."However, for storm chasers, it is all worth it. "When you get close to a storm, it is the most exciting sight you will ever see in your life," says Jasper Morley．"Every storm is an example of the power of nature．It is the greatest show on Earth．"7. For storm chasing, the first thing storm chasers do is to ____A. head straight for the center of the stormB. get into the car for safetyC. wait patiently for the storm to developD. collect information about a coming storm8. Beginners of storm chasing are advised______A not to drive in a heavy rainB. to do it in an organized wayC. not to get too close to a stormD. to spend more time on it in summer9. By saying "it is all worth it" in the last paragraph, the author means that_____A. storm chasing costs a lot of moneyB. storm chasing is worth hours of waitingC. efforts in storm chasing are well paidD. a storm presents the greatest show on earth10. What can we learn from the text?____A. Sometimes storm chasers get nothing but disappointment.B. Many storm chasers get killed in the storms.C. Storm chasing is becoming popular around the world.D.

An Israeli law banning too-skinny models went into effect with the start of 2013. The law, approved last March in Israel, requires models to prove they have maintained a Body Mass Index (BMI) of at least 18.5 for three months before a fashion show. That means a woman who is 5’8” tall can weigh no less than 119 pounds.“This law is another step in the war against eating disorders,” said physician Adatto. “Underweight models,” he explained, “can no longer serve as rold models for innocent young people who copy their false image of being skinny.”But some critics in this country say it is misguided, focusing on weight instead of health. They also say the Israeli ban is bound to fail because of the strong power of the fashion industry. “I think it’s an approach that isn’t going to work.” Said eating disorder expert Susan Ice, who worked with an organization wich creates a healthy working environment for models.But Adatto told the reporter told the reporter that he began to concern the issue after meeting an aspiring model who looked like she needed to be hospitalized. He said. "I realized that on ly legislation can change the situation. There was no time to waste, so many girls were dieting to death."However, the efforts to regulate models’s weight in Spain and Italy have not resulted in part because of difficulties in determining reliable methods of measuring weight and health."？Still, folks including Ice say there's no denying that images from Hollywood and the fashion industry can be difficult for young women to deal with. "Certainly I don't believe the modeling industry has caused the rise in eating disorders, but it makes it harder," she says. "It's a difficult recovery environment, worshiping thinness as the beauty ideal."1．What does BMI in the first paragraph refer to?A．A measure of body health based on height and weight.B．A worldwide prize for the healthies model.C．A new show held by those skinny models.D．A kind of medicine to cure eating disorders.2．One benefit the new Israeli law may bring is .A．to change the working conditions of modelsB．to lower the chance of skinny models’s deathC．tp [revent models from suffering from eating disordersD．to provide guidance for women worshiping thinness3．In the opinion of the critics, the law won’t succeed because.A．it misleads young women to form a bad eating habitB．the fashion industry is much too influentialC．it doesn’t provide a proper approach that can work wellD．it doesn’t create a healthy working environment for models4．What cause Adatto to think that a law was needed to change the situation?A．Establishing his fashion-model agent.B．Metting an ambitious but too skinny model.C．Being interviewed by a reporter.D．Seeing a model die from eating disorders.5．According to the passage, the new Israeli law banning skinny models is .A．practical B．acceptable C．reasonable D．controversial38.

The legal limit for driving after drinking alcohol is 80 milligrams of alcohol in 100 millilite rs of blood, when tested. But there is not sure way of telling how much you can drink before you reach this limit. It varies with each person depending on our weight, your sex, if you’ve just eaten and what sort of drinks you’ve had. Some people might reac h their limit after only about three standard drinks.In fact, your drinking ability can be affected by just one or tow drinks. Even if you’re below the legal limit, you could still be taken to court if a police officer thinks your driving has been affected by alcohol.It takes about an hour for the body to get rid of the alcohol in one standard drink. So, if you have a heavy drinking session in the evening you might find that your driving ability is still affected the next morning, or you could even find t hat you’re still over the legal limit. In addition, if you’ve had a few drinks at lunchtime, another one or tow drinks in the early evening may well put you over the legal limit.In a test with professional drivers, the more alcoholic drinks they had had t he more certain they ere that they could drive a test course through a set of moveable posts and the less able they were to do it !So the only way to be sure you’re safe is not to drink at all.Alcohol is a major cause of road accidents. One is three of the drivers killed in road accidents have levels of alcohol which are over the legal limit, and road accidents after drinking are the biggest cause of death among young men. More than half of people stopped by the police to take a breath analyzer test have a blood alcohol concentration of more than twice the legal limit.It is important to remember that driving after you’ve been drinking doesn’t just affect you. If you’re involved in an accident it affects a lot of other people as well, not least the perso n you might kill or injure.1. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. Three standard drinks may cause some people to reach the legal limit.B. There is no sure way of telling how much you can drink before you reach the legal limit.C. The legal limit for driving after drinking is 0.008 gm of alcohol in 100 milliliters of blood.D.

Four out of ten women who diet end up heavier than when they started watching their waistline（腰围）, a study revealed today. The research also showed that a large percentage of women start noticing the pounds creeping back on just 21 days after reaching their ideal weight. Yesterday, Dr Ian Campbell of the Jenny Craig weight management program said: “In the UK 61.4 per cent of adults are overweight or obese. Successful weight management requires a long-term commitment in order to lose weight successfully and for good. Dieting can be a real challenge so setting realistic goals and remaining focused on them is important. Otherwise as this research shows, women coul d end up heavier than when they started.”The “Food: Body: Mind” report was publicized by Jenny Craig who quizzed 2000 women aged between 18 and 65 who diet regularly on their attitudes, beliefs and behaviors around weight loss. Six in ten said they are currently on a diet and one in five women said they are on a “continuous diet”.It found the most common triggers to start dieting was seeing their “reflection in the mirror”, preparing for a summer holiday or unflattering photos posted on social networking sites. Other popular reasons include comments by friends or relatives or their other half.However, the study showed that one in ten give up within one day, while almost a fifth manage to make it to a week or more. The average is ten days. Many blamed pres sure they put on themselves to lose weight too quickly for the weight gain, which leaves them with a bigger appetite than normal. Others blamed colleagues, who tuck into fatty lunches and snacks unaware of the effect it has on the dieter, while mothers who polish off their children's leftovers（剩饭）was another common cause of weight gain.1. Which of the following might be the best title for this article?A. Three reasons to fail in dietingB. Important things for successful dietC. Obesity: problem for 61.4% adults in UKD. Four in ten women gain weight on diets2. In the UK, women who go on a diet __________.A. are all overweight or obeseB. are likely to gain weight again after reaching their ideal weightC. all fail because they are not persistent enoughD. end up heavier than when they start to diet3.

Which of the following is NOT the reason why many people quit dieting very soon?A. The pressure they put on themselves to lose weight quickly.B. Colleagues who give them fatty lunches and snacks.C. Reflections they see in the mirror.D. Leftovers of children’s taken by their mothers.5. In which column of the newspaper do you probably find the passage?A. Health.B. Economy.C. Sports.D. Education.六、书面表达41. 假定你是李华，从互联网（the Internet）上得知一个国际中学生组织将在新加坡(Singapore)举办夏令营，欢迎各国学生参加。
