Question

【題目】根據(jù)短文理解，選擇正確答案。
Paparazzi, (狗仔隊)or “paps”, are photographers who take pictures of famous people when they are not at the center of public attention. Paps are different from professional photographers or journalists because they never take ordinary photos.
The goal for paparazzi is to get pictures that no one else will get and then sell the pictures to the buyer who offers the most money — normainly a small newspaper, magazine or website.
There is no law against paparazzi taking pictures in public places. However, there are laws that protect certain individuals. For example, child protection laws stop improper pictures of anyone under 16 from being published.
There is also no law that stops paparazzi from following celebrities（名人） and taking their pictures either. However, if paps are secretly following them and taking pictures of their faces, they could get into trouble.
Most paparazzi hang out on streets and hot spots for celebrities, waiting for the opportunity to take a picture of a star. Many stay on the streets until the early hours of the morning when celebrities are leaving nightclubs and looking a little worse for wear. However, some have other ways to make sure they get pictures. Many paps are in contact with “informers” who know the locations of celebrities at any given time. They then pass the information on to paparazzi. An informer could be anyone — from a restaurant waiter to a salesman.
Most of the time, paparazzi get a bad reputation for following celebrities. But sometimes stars or their managers will contact paps themselves and tell them exactly where and when they will go. What a love-hate relationship between paparazzi and celebrities!

【答案】

（2）C
（3）D
（4）D
（5）C
【解析】本文屬于說明文，介紹了狗仔隊這一特殊行業(yè)。并詳細介紹了狗仔隊是如何拍攝到名人的特殊照片的。

（1）B 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段最后一句For example, child protection laws stop improper pictures of anyone under 16 from being published.可知未成年人保護法禁止拍攝16歲以下的未成年人的圖片。所以B項內(nèi)容是違法的。

（2）C 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第二段The goal for paparazzi is to get pictures that no one else will get and then sell the pictures to the buyer who offers the most money可知狗仔隊的目的就是能夠拍攝到別人拍不到的圖片并以此謀利。故C項正確。

（3）D 主旨大意題。本文屬于說明文，介紹了狗仔隊這一特殊群體以及他們進行特殊偷拍的方法。AB項是錯誤的，C項與文章內(nèi)容無關。D項是文章的中心思想。

（4）D 推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章最后一段Most of the time, paparazzi get a bad reputation for following celebrities. But sometimes stars or their managers will contact paps themselves and tell them exactly where and when they will go.可知總得說來狗仔隊和明星是對立的，但是有時候明星為了有更高的曝光率，會主動讓狗仔隊拍攝。他們之間的關系很微妙。故D項正確。

（5）C 詞義猜測題。根據(jù)本句Most paparazzi hang out on streets and hot spots for celebrities, waiting for the opportunity to take a picture of a star.可知狗仔隊通常在大街上或一些很受歡迎的地方等名人出現(xiàn)并拍攝他們的照片。所以劃線短語“hang out”意為徘徊。故C項正確。
