Everyone needs a break, and vacations are not meant for serious study. 【1 The Spring Festival is coming up so this is the perfect time to discuss some great English language literature to take on a long train journey.

Before getting into the recommendations, you need to determine your English reading comprehension level. If you’re at the beginner level, there are two options: reading a children’s book or reading a book that you’ve read in Chinese translation. 2If you’re at the intermediate level, popular books like pop fiction, mysteries and thrillers are good options. For advanced readers, classic works of literature or modern prize winners (Nobel, Pulitzer) are good options.

3 When I pick up a book I like, even though the first few chapters are really hard to get through, I would try to get accustomed to the language the author uses. Generally, after the first few chapters, things get a lot easier, especially if I get involved in the story.

Another great way to keep yourself motivated is to find a friend who’s interested in reading the same book. You can make goals that you both want to achieve. 4

Some quick recommendations: Harry Potter, start with the first book and go on from there; the Narnia series; anything by US writer Michael Crichton; and if you like horror, US writer Stephen King is always unusual and fun. 5 Happy reading!

A. If you pick a book which is so challenging, it will be too stressful.

B. The most important thing is to pick a book that you’re really interested in.

C. You may also enjoy your reading when hanging out with your family.

D. You should just find a topic or author you’re interested in, and the rest will go from there.

E. You can also discuss plot lines or vocabulary issues with each other by SMS or e-mail.

F. Instead, they’re a great way to take a break and enjoy a good book.

G. This will help you get over any unfamiliar words or phrases, since you’re already familiar with the story.

【答案】

【1】F

【2】G

【3】B

【4】E

【5】D

【解析】

試題分析:本文談論了怎樣接觸英語文學,并對不同程度的讀者提供了閱讀建議。

【1】F根據(jù)上文needs a break, 以及“假期不是為了嚴肅而認真地學習”可知此處用Instead...轉(zhuǎn)折引出下文較合適。故選F。

【2】G根據(jù)常識可知讀者讀過中譯本,則會be familiar with the story, 故選G項。

【3】B根據(jù)a book I like 可知作者建議:選擇感興趣的書。故選B。

【4】E第四段主要講和朋友一起讀書能做的事,所以E項正確。

【5】D上文提到了Harry Potter, the Narnia series, Michael Crichton, Stephen King 都是推薦讀的書目及作者,而且也提到了horror,這是一個topic,都包括在D項內(nèi),所以D項正確。

【學法指導】

【名師點撥】

1.根據(jù)上下文的語境來確定選項。一般在空格的上一句或下一句,也許是上、下句中會有暗示。比如第40.小題5 D上文提到了Harry Potter, the Narnia series, Michael Crichton, Stephen King 都是推薦讀的書目及作者,而且也提到了horror,這是一個topic,都包括在D項內(nèi),所以D項正確。

2.根據(jù)常識解題。比如第37小題G根據(jù)常識可知讀者讀過中譯本,則會be familiar with the story, 故選G項。

【題目】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 (丘疹,粉刺) taken out by computers.

Tip your head and learn what angles work with your face; everyone is different.So you have to learn what suits you.You can practice in Photo Booth for 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 (快門) is clicked for full eyes.

The study’s results show that food dropped for five seconds is less likely to contain bacteria than if it sits there for longer, according to Hilton.The students also found that the type of flooring where the dropped food lands has an effect. 2Bacteria are most likely to transfer from tiled (鋪瓷磚的) surfaces to moist food when the food has stood there for more than five seconds.3Therefore, consumers should still be cautious. “However, the findings of this study will bring some light relief to those who have been employing the five-second rule for years, despite a general consensus that it is purely a myth,” professor Hilton said in a statement.The research team at Aston also surveyed 500 people to find out who employs the five-second rule. Of the people surveyed, 87% said they would eat food dropped on the floor, or have done so in the past. 4“Our study showed people are also more likely to follow the five-second rule, which our research has shown to be much more than an old wives’ tale,” Hilton says.Still, scientists say you should be careful about eating food dropped on the floor, especially if you have doubts about the cleanliness of the surface. 5

A. But is that true?

B. Carpeted surfaces posed the lowest risk.

C. Of those people, the majority were women.

D. We’ve just lost our last excuse to eat food off the floor.

E. Usually people recover from the infection in five to ten days.

F. There is still a risk of infection if certain bacteria are present on the dropped surface.

G. A biologist points out that one in six Americans get sick from food poisoning every year.
