Living in Iowa and trying to become a photographer specializing in landscape(風景)can be quite a challenge, mainly because the corn state lacks geographical variation.
Although landscapes in the Midwest tend to be quite similar either farm fields or highway, sometimes I find distinctive character in the hills or lakes. To make some of my landscape shots, I have travelled up to four hours away to shoot within 10-minture time for me, I tend to travel with a few of my friends to state parks or to the countryside to go on adventures and take photos along the way.
Being at the right place at the right time is decisive in any style of photography. I often leave early to seek the right destinations so I can set up early to avoid missing the moment I am attempting to photograph. I have missed plenty of beautiful sun sets and rises due to being on the sport only five minutes before the best moment.
One time my friends and I drove three hours t0Devil’s Lake, Wisconsin, to climb the purple quartz(石英) rock around the lake. After we found a crazy-looking road that hung over a bunch of rocks, we decided to photograph the scene at sunset. The position enabled us to look over the lake with the sunset in the background. We managed to leave this spot to climb higher because of the spare time until sunset.
However, we did not mark the route(路線)so we ended up almost missing the sunset entirely. Once we
found the place, it was stressful getting lights and cameras set up in the limited time. Still looking back
on the photos, they are some of my best shots though they could have been so much better if I would have
been prepared and managed my time wisely.
24.How does the author deal with the challenge as a landscape photographer in the Midwest?
A. By teaming up with other photographers.B. By shooting in the countryside or state parks.
C. By studying the geographical conditions.D. By creating settings in the com fields.
25. What is the key to successful landscape photography according to the author?
A. Proper time management.B. Good shooting techniques.
C. Adventurous spirit.D. Distinctive styles.
26.What can we infer from the author’s trip with friends to Devil’s Lake?
A. They went crazy with the purple quartz rockB. They felt stressed while waiting for the sunset.
C. They reached the shooting spot later than expected.
D. They had problems with their equipment.
27. How does the author find his photos taken at Devils Lake?
A. Amusing.B. Satisfying.C. Encouraging.D. Comforting.

What comes into your mind when you think of British food? Probably fish and chips or a Sunday dinner of meat and two vegetables. But is British food really so uninteresting? Even though Britain has a reputation for less-than-impressive cuisine, it is producing more top class chefs who appear frequently on our television screens and whose recipe books frequently top the best seller lists.
lts thanks to these TV chefs rather than any advertising campaign that Britons are turning away from meat-and-two-veg and ready-made meals and becoming more adventurous in their cooking habits. It is recently reported that the number of those sticking to a traditional diet is slowly declining and around half of Britains consumers would like to change or improve their cooking in some way. There has been a rise in the number of students applying for food courses at UK universities and colleges. It seems that TV programmes have helped change what people thinking about cooking.
According to a new study from market analysts, 1 in 5 Britons say that watching cookery programmes on TV has encouraged them to try different food. Almost one third say they now use a wider variety of in- gradients(配料)than they used to, and just under 1 in 4 say they now buy better quality ingredients than before. One in four adults say that TV chefs have made them much more confident about expanding their cookery knowledge and skills, and young people are also getting more interested in cooking. The UK’s
obsession(癡迷) with food is reflected through television scheduling. Cookery shows and documentaries about food are broadcast more often than before. With an increasing number of male chefs on TV, it’s no longer "uncool" for boys to like cooking.
28. What do people usually think of British food?
A. It is simple and plain.B. It is rich in nutrition.
C. It lacks authentic tastes.D. It deserves a high reputation.
29.Which best describes cookery programmes on British TV?
A. Authoritative.B. Creative.
C. Profitable.D. Influential.
30.Which is the percentage of the people using more diverse ingredients now?
A.20%.B.24%.C.25%.D.33%.
31.What might the author continue talking about?
A. The art of cooking in other countries.B. Male chefs on TV programmes.
C. Table manners in the UK.D. Studies of big eaters.

If you want to tell the history of the whole world, a history that does not privilege one part or humanity. you cannot do it through texts alone. Because only some of the world has ever had texts, while most of the world, for most of the time, has not. Writing is one of humanity’s later achievements, and until fairly recently even many literate(有文字的)societies recorded their concerns not only in writing but in tings.
Ideally a history would bring together texts and objects, and some chapters of this book are able to do just that, but in many cases we simply can’t. The clearest example of this between literate and non-literate history is perhaps the first conflict at Botany Bay between Captain Cooks voyage and the Australian Aboriginals. From the English side, we have scientific reports and the captain’s record of that terrible day. From the Australian side, we have only a wooden shield(盾)dropped by a man in flight after his first experience of gunshot. If we want to reconstruct what was actually going on that day, the shield must be questioned and interpreted as deeply and strictly as the written reports.
In addition to the problem of miscomprehension from both sides, there are victories accidentally or deliberately twisted, especially when only the victors know how to write. Those who are on the losing side often have only their things to tell their stories. The Caribbean Taino. the Australian Aboriginals, the African people of Benin and the Incas all of whom appear in this book, can speak to us now of their past achievements most powerfully through the objects they made: a history told through things gives them back a voice. When we consider contact(聯系)between literate and non-literate societies such as these, all our first-hand accounts are necessarily twisted, only one half of a dialogue. If we are to find the other half of that
conversation, we have to read not just the texts, but the objects.
32. What is the first paragraph mainly about?
A. How past events should be presented.B. What humanity is concerned about.
C. Whether facts speak louder than words.D. Why written language is reliable.
33. What does the author indicate by mentioning Captain Cook in paragraph 2?
A. His report was significantB. He represented the local people.
C. He ruled over Botany Bay.D. His record was one-sided.
34. What does the underlined word "conversation" in paragraph 3 refer to?
A. Problem.B. History.C. Voice.D. Society.
35. Which of the following books is the text most likely selected from?
A. How Maps Tell Stories of the WorldB. A Short History of Australia
C. A History of the World in 100 ObjectsD. How Art Works Tell Stories
