But he was not a good artist. 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, Daguerre, 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, other people began to use Daguerres way. Travelers brought back wonderful photos from all around the world. People took pictures of famous buildings, cities and mountains. In about 1840, photography was developed. Then photographers could take pictures of people and moving things. That was not simple. The photographers had to carry a lot of films 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 pictures of great people. The pictures were unusual because they were very lifelike. Photography also became one kind of art by the end of the 19th century. Some photos were not just copies of the real world. They showed our feelings, like other kinds of art.21. The first photo was a picture of Niepces _.A. businessB. house C. gardenD. window22. The Daguerreotype was _.

Rising food prices, weather emergencies and political problems are deepening the struggle for families in many countries. Three UN agencies have published a report recently, saying high prices are likely to continue. Gregory Barrow, who is with the World Food Program in Rome, says, “If you look at the places where the World Food Program works, particularly in developing countries, you see people who might be spending more than 60 percent of their salary in purchasing food for their families.” East Africa is suffering its worst drought in years. In Kenya, at least three and a half million people are going hungry, mostly in the north. Yet food is going to waste in central Kenya. Now, farmers there want the government to buy their food and give it to those in need. Farmers say bad roads and lack of transportation make it difficult for them to get their produce to the market. Mr. Barrow says, “It needs the government to make some arrangements such as providing transport. They can buy it at a good price, then give it to those people instead of asking for food from overseas, which is very bad. When we are throwing away food, they are asking for food from overseas.” Economists say that imports reduce local food prices, decrease productivity(生产效率) and increase the dependency on other countries. Farmers in Kenya hope the government can pay higher prices for their crops so that they can feed more Kenyans. 28. What is the best title for this passage?A. Kenya Imports Food from AbroadB. World Food Program in Rome.C. The Poor Suffer from High Food Prices.D. A Report Published by Three UN Agencies.29. What do we know about Kenya from the passage?A. The people in central Kenya are suffering from hunger.B. At least three and a half million Kenyans lack food.C. The Kenyan government wants to improve road conditions.D. People in northern Kenya refuse to ask for food from overseas.30. What does “they” in the fourth paragraph refer to? A. The people of northern Kenya.B. Government officials.C. The farmers of central Kenya.D. Kenyan economists.31. Which of the following statements is TRUE, according to this passage?A. Gregory Barrow suggests that Kenya make good use of overseas food.B. People in northern Kenya are suffering the drought less than the central.C. Economists believe importing food from abroad may cause problems.D. Kenyan government hopes to buy the native crops at higher prices. D Hunan Satellite TV is losing its leading position? Theres a reason for saying this. In xx, the reality talent show, the Voice of China, on the Zhejiang Television became the most popular program in China. The reason for its popularity was really because of its excellent quality? Or can we assume that without any opponent, we cant tell a contestant is winning because he is really talented or because there is no parison? The administrative department really contributed a lot in the popularity of the Voice of China. In the past, there were no other draft shows(选秀节目) ranked as high as Super Girl and Super Boy. Even though there were some draft shows which seemed to share the popularity, it never turned out true. All the other draft shows were shadowed by the ones on Hunan TV. One example was that since draft shows of Hunan TV were broadcast on Friday night, the draft shows of other stations were shifted to Saturday or Sunday. However, Hunan TV didnt get their permission for broadcasting shows in xx. And if this were not bad enough, SARFT did a great favor for it. SARFT issued a regulation, saying that all draft shows should be broadcast after 10:30 pm at night. Zhejiang TV declared long before the regulation that since was “no audition(海选)， no PK, no rise in rank, no voting, no champion”, its program was never a draft show. So, in xx, all the opponents of Zhejiang TV had to broadcast their draft shows after 10:30 pm while the Voice of China was permitted to be broadcast in prime time.If you really think about it, theres no essential difference between a draft show and the Voice of China. It also selected people from all over the country, how did they say this was different from a draft show? No PK, really? PK doesnt mean one versus one! A team versus a team is called PK too. And “no rise in rank” is just a switch of concepts because at the end of every game, some left the stage and some stayed. If there was really “no champion”, how e there was only one “good voice of China” at the final round? All these were rising in rank, in disguise(隐性).Under such circumstances, the Voice of China even got praise. We are not saying that it is not a good show; we are saying that theres regret about the show since it had no opponent.32. The following factors are important in making the Voice of China popular EXCEPT _.A. the unique quality of the voice of ChinaB. the policy support from SARFT and the administrative departmentC. the favorable broadcasting time D. the shortage of good opponents33. The passage mainly tells us _. A. the voice of China is not a real draft showB. the draft shows of Hunan Satellite TV still cause our attentionC. the advantages of the Voice of ChinaD. the reasons why Hunan Satellite TV is losing its leading position34. Whats the authors attitude towards the voice of China?A. supportiveB. doubtfulC. optimisticD. hopeful35. Which is TRUE according to the passage?A. SARFT issued a regulation, saying that all draft shows should be broadcast after 10:30 pm at night.B. Draft shows of Hunan TV were broadcast on Sunday night.C. In the past, there were some draft shows ranked as high as Super Girl.D. The Voice of China is a program of Hunan Satellite TV.第二节: （共5小题； 每小题 2分，满分 10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Parents have started to notice many benefits associated with online math and reading tutoring services. Both conventional and online tutoring offers children academic help. 36 . Heres why. Online tutoring, much like conventional tutoring, helps a student plete difficult assignments, and is geared toward(使适合) improving grades. This method, however, allows your children to master their studies from the convenience of home, making it more convenient for both children and parents who have a busy schedule. Since the Internet is probably already one of your childrens favorite activities, working education programs into their online time is easier than convincing them to apply traditional face to face methods. 37 .These abilities are essential in todays world. Online tutoring also enables very individualized programs and plans. Often, people believe online tutoring is designed for the masses. 38 .

So, how do you truly identify whether online tutoring is right for you and your child? 40 . If this method is not effective, contact a local tutor or tutoring center.A. The online method is increasing in popularity, however.B. The only way is to give it a try.C. Online tutoring may not be for everyone, however.D. Learning these requirements early will help to ensure future success.E. However, most online tutoring programs are personally designed to match each child.F. The conveniences of a home-based program are more important than your childs education.G. Participating in online programs also enhances students online research techniques and typing skills. 第三部分: 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节 ：完形填空（共20小题； 每题1.5 分，满分 30分） The town of Pressure and the town of Pleasure were neighbors but they had nothing in mon.
