With lower-quality lenses(透镜) and image sensors, smartphones probably wont replace professional video cameras anytime soon. Still, some creative filmmakers are extending the borders of smartphone moviemaking by shooting professional-quality films using only smartphones.Soon after Apples iPhone 4 was released, two filmmakers decided to make a short film using only their iPhone 4s. Michael Koerbel and Anna Elizabeth James shot and edited the one-and-a-half-minute film Apple of My Eye in only 48 hours. Audiences were fascinated with the film, in which a man and his grandfather connect emotionally while admiring a model train set in a store window. The filmmakers followed up their success with Goldilocks, an extraordinary spy novel told over nine, three-minute films.Many filmmakers are convinced that smartphone films are here to stay. One sign is their inclusion in major film festivals. In February xx, organizers of the Berkshire International Film Festival staged the 10 X 10 On North Festival. Entries included Oliver by Hooman Khalili, an award-winning film about a girl whose special powers enable her to brighten the lives of three lonely people. Another entry was Yearlapse11, a 365-second film by Zsolt Haraszti that describes an actual journey he made from New York to London.During the festival, which ran from February 16 to 26, these and many other smartphone films were shown at the Beacon Cinema in Pittsfield, Massachusetts. Similar festivals in Canada and South Korea have given smartphone filmmakers opportunities to show off their creative work.56. What does the article imply about smartphone filmmakers? A. Their efforts have gotten little attention. B. Their biggest challenge is finding actors. C. Theyve influenced famous movie studios D. They must overe equipment limitations.57. What does the article point out about Harasztis film? A. It uses slow-motion effects. B. It took just minutes to make. C. Its cast was quite large. D. Its based on true events.58. Which film is about secret agents? A. Apple of My Eye. B. Goldilocks. C. Olive. D. Yearlapse 11.59. According to this article, what is true about the festivals in Canada and South Korea? A. Theyre held at the same time of year. B. Theyre part of an emerging trend. C. They both receive government support. D. Theyre still in the planning stages.BFile Created Page 1 DELAYED BAGGAGE REPORT PRINTED AT ALBANY N.Y.

For most students, math can be tough but scientists have proved that math problems can actually trigger physical pain.Scientists came to his conclusion with an in-depth experiment, which was published in the Public Library of Science One journal. They began by finding out how much participants fear math. Those involved were asked a series of questions such as how they feel when they receive a math textbook or when they walk into a math lesson.Based on their answers, participants were divided into groups. One group was made up of people who were particularly afraid of math and participants in the other group were more fortable with the subject.Both groups were then given either math tasks or word tasks. When a math task was going to e next, a yellow circle would appear but when a word task was soon to e, a blue square would be shown.Using a brain-scan machine, scientists noticed that whenever people from Group One saw a yellow circle, their brain would respond in a way similar to when their body is feeling pain. It was like the pain they would fee, for example, if they burnt their hand on a hot stove. But they reacted less strongly when they knew that they would be faced with a word task.However, scientists saw no strong brain response from people in the second group.Math can be difficult, and for those with high levels of mathematics-anxiety (HMA), math is associated with tension, apprehension and fear. “When you are really thinking about the math problems, your mind is racing and you are worrying about all the things that could go wrong,” explained Ian Lyons from University of Chicago, US, leader of the study. “The higher a persons anxiety of a maths task, the more he activated brain regions associated with threat detection, and the experience of pain.”More interestingly, the brain activity disappeared when participants actually started dealing with the math tasks. “This means that its not that math itself hurts; rather, the anticipation of math is painful,” Lyons said.Based on the study, scientists suggested that things could be done to help students worry less and move past their fear of math, which might mean they perform better in tests.63. In the first stage, scientists ask participants some questions to _.A. see whether math hurtsB. find out how much they fear mathC. observe how their brain responseD. test their endurance of pain64. The underlined word “the anicipation of math” is closest in meaning to .A. the attempt of learning math B. the motivation to work out math problemC. the effort to understand math D. the act of thinking about math65. Which is the best title for the passage?A. How to overe math fear. B. Physical pain affects math performance.C. Math pain in your brain. D. Unknown truth about pain.66. What can be concluded from the experiment?A. The anticipation of math has no relation to students confidence in math. B. Moderate mathematic anxiety promotes students academic performance.C. Effective solutions have been worked out to lower students anxiety of math.D. Physical pain caused by HMA disappears in the process of doing math problem.D As we drove along, my spirits went up again, and I turned, with pleasure, to the thought of the new life which I was entering. But though it was not far past the middle of September, the heavy clouds and strong north-easterly wind bined to make the day extremely cold; and the journey seemed a very long one, so that it was nearly one oclock before we reached the place of our destination. Yet when we entered the gateway, my heart failed me, and I wished it were a mile or two farther off. For the first time in my life I must stand alone: there was no retreating now. I must enter that house, and introduce myself among its strange people. But how was it to be done? True, I was near nineteen; but, thanks to the protecting care of my mother and sister, I well knew that many a girl of fifteen, or under, was gifted with a more womanly address, and greater ease and self-possession, than I was. Yet, anyway, I would do very well, after all; and the children, of course, I should soon be at ease with them.Be calm, be calm, whatever happens, I said within myself; and truly I was so fully occupied in steadying my nerves and keeping down the rebellious beat of my heart that when I was admitted into the hall and into the presence of Mrs. Bloomfield, I almost forgot to answer her polite greeting; and it afterwards struck me that the little I did say was spoken in the tone of one half-dead or half-asleep. With due politeness, however, she showed me my bedroom, and left me there to take a little refreshment for a little while and led me into the dining-room. Some beefsteaks and potatoes were set before me; and while I dined upon these, she sat opposite, watching me (as I thought) and trying to keep something like a conversation consisting chiefly of monplace remarks. In fact, my attention was almost wholly absorbed in my dinner: not from appetite, but from
