【題目】The popular smartphone application Instagram(照片分享)has changed the way we look at photography, even our world. The photo-worthy moments we share serve as an important function in cultivating the photographic artistic eye.

Instagram has got people to start noticing the art in their everyday life. It has also allowed us to share the artful moments in our lives with others. Clearly, making people focus on beautiful moments in their lives and how to share them is a positive takeaway from Instagram.

Not only has Instagram changed the way we look at things around us, but it has also changed the way people view professional photography. Instagram has turned everyone with a smartphone into an artist. Opening up art to the general community is a groundbreaking(創(chuàng)新的) aspect of this application. Making artistic attempts accessible for everyone to discover their artistic talents and explore creatively is something that has made people find the beauty in the everyday. However, this accessibility has also created questioning around art and respect deserved by professional photography.

The art in a professional photograph versus an Instagram can sometimes be hard to notice at a quick glance. But photographs taken by true professional photographers hold something that Instagram’s cannot match in terms of photographic quality, or advanced compositional knowledge.

This is not to say Instagram is a lesser art. Aesthetic qualities of art are a personal matter and how good an artwork is depends on personal preferences. Good is a very arbitrary term in the art world. For example, I may find one photo more pleasing than another, but not everyone has to agree with me.

The point I am trying to make is that professional photography should not be lost, but instead approached with a new, enhanced level of respect and admiration — despite how accessible, common and fun Instagram now makes the taking and sharing of photos.

A. The increasing popularity of Instagram.

【2】 What can the smartphone application Instagram do?

A. Help people to discover true self.

B. Inspire people to find the beauty in life.

C. Encourage people to be more competitive.

D. Let people gain others’ respect and admiration.

【3】Why do people begin to doubt the art of professional photography?

A. Because common people can take perfect photos easily.

B. Because they show no respect for professional photographers.

C. Because the artistic level of professional photography is reducing.

D. Because Instagram has changed the way people look at the world.

【4】What does the writer think of professional photography?

【解析】

【文章大意】智能手機(jī)的照片分享應(yīng)用改變了人們看待攝影、甚至世界的方式。通過分享自己生活中的美好瞬間，人們開始在日常生活中發(fā)現(xiàn)美并傳播美。同時(shí)，因?yàn)閾碛兄悄苁謾C(jī)的人都可以拍出完美的照片，人們也對專業(yè)攝影技術(shù)漸漸失去了應(yīng)有的尊敬。

【1】C 主旨大意題。在文中作者首先提到照片分享功能改變了人們看待攝影、甚至世界的方式，然后在下文分別從這兩個(gè)方面進(jìn)行介紹，由此判斷文章主要介紹了照片分享功能所帶來的變化，故選C。

【2】B 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第二段內(nèi)容可知手機(jī)的照片分享功能改變了人們看世界的方式，使得人們開始去發(fā)現(xiàn)身邊的美，并且愿意和別人去分享這份美好。而其他選項(xiàng)都屬于無中生有的干擾項(xiàng)。

【3】A 推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章第三段內(nèi)容可知智能手機(jī)的拍照和照片分享功能使得每個(gè)人都有機(jī)會(huì)去嘗試接觸藝術(shù)，發(fā)現(xiàn)自己的藝術(shù)天分，拍出完美的照片，因此人們對專業(yè)攝影作品也產(chǎn)生了質(zhì)疑，故選A。

【4】A 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章末段but instead approached with a new, enhanced level of respect and admiration可知作者認(rèn)為專業(yè)攝影還是有用的，故選A。

The amount of money that parents give to their children to spend as they wish differs from family to family. Some children get weekly pocket money. Others get monthly pocket money.
First of all, children are expected to make a choice between spending and saving. Then parents should make the children understand what is expected to pay for with the money.
