Fifteen years ago, I took a summer vacation in Lecce in southern Italy. After climbing up a hill for a panoramic view of the blue sea, white buildings and green olive trees, I paused to catch my breath and then positioned myself to take the best photo of this panorama.
Unfortunately, just as I took out my camera, a woman approached from behind, and planted herself right in front of my view. Like me, this woman was here to stop, sigh and appreciate the view.
Patient as I was, after about 15 minutes, my camera scanning the sun and reviewing the shot I would eventually take, I grew bored. Was it too much to ask her to move so I could take just one picture of the landscape Sure, I could have asked her, but something prevented me from doing so. She seemed so content in her observation. I didn't want to mess with that.
Another 15 minutes passed and I grew bored. The woman was still there. I decided to take the photo anyway. And now when I look at it, I think her presence in the photo is what makes the image interesting. The landscape, beautiful on its own, somehow comes to life and breathes because this woman is with it.
This photo, with the unique beauty that unfolded before me and that woman who "ruined" it, now hangs on a wall in my bedroom. What would she think if she knew that her figure is captured and frozen on some stranger's bedroom wall A bedroom, after all, is a very private space, in which some woman I don't even know has always been there. In some ways, she lives in my house.
Perhaps we all live in each other's spaces. Perhaps this is what photos are for: to remind us that we all appreciate beauty, that we all share a common desire for pleasure, for connection, for something that is greater than us.
That photo is a reminder, a captured moment, an unspoken conversation between two women, separated only by a thin square of glass.
1.According to the author, the woman was probably .
A. enjoying herself
B.losing her patience
C.waiting for the sunset
D.thinking about her past
2.In the author's opinion, what makes the photo so alive
A.The rich color of the landscape.
B.The perfect positioning of the camera.
C.The woman's existence in the photo.
D.The soft sunlight on that summer day.
3.The photo on the bedroom wall enables the author to better understand .
A. the need to be close to nature
B.the importance of private space
C.the joy of the vacation in Italy
D. the shared passion for beauty
4. The passage can be seen as the author's reflections upon .
A.a particular life experience
B.the pleasure of traveling
C.the art of photography
D. a lost friendship

Reasons you should travel while you're young
I have been very lucky to travel around the world while still young. According to my experiences, I advise every young person to get out of their hometown and see what’s out there. Here are three ways that traveling has changed me forever.
Travelling changes the way you connect with the world.
I grew up in a small town. 1 When you travel to other countries and see the amazing beauty of sunset overseas, monkeys swinging through rain forests, and so on, you realize the world is full of more beauty than you are able to see in a lifetime. But, you still want to try.
Travelling changes the way you connect with others.
Everyone in my hometown looked and acted basically the same. 2 I realized that my life could be enriched by developing friendships with people who didn't look or act like me. Far from my hometown, I developed friendships with people who were nothing like me, but were exactly what I needed. 3
Travelling helps develop your interest in education.
4 Just reading the stories in books seemed boring to me. However, when I visited the Palace of Versailles in France and walked in the halls of the Louvre, I couldn’t help but have interest in history. 5
A.Travelling taught me not to fear.
B.Travelling makes history come alive.
C.Sadly, I never liked history in school.
D.When I travelled, I learned about other cultures.
E.It also taught me the importance of communication skills.
F.The older I become, the more I realize I actually know very little about life.
G.If I hadn't had the chance to travel, I would have a difficult time imagining much else outside my country.
概要写作
阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
The journey to the moon has been the first step toward future exploration in space. The distance between the moon and the earth is very short indeed when compared with the distances between the earth and the other planets. Mars, one of the nearest planets to the earth, is millions of miles away. Travelling to the planets will be man's next aim. Such travels will be more challenging than the trip to the moon and certainly more adventurous.
Recently, two American spaceships, Vikings 1 and 2 landed on Mars trying to discover whether there is any life on the planet. So far the signs of life on Mars has neither confirmed nor ruled out.
Russians have discovered that the surface of Venus is so hot that it is almost certain that there is no life there. Also the atmosphere of Venus is extremely dense and the pressure is nearly a hundred times greater than that of the earth's atmosphere.
Scientists believe man may find planets which have the same conditions as those we have on the earth, but man should realize the earth will be his only home for a long time and begin to love and care about it.

I love travelling, but it hasn't always been my passion. In my first year of university, I started to travel during the holidays. During the Christmas holiday I went to Paris, and during the spring vacation, I visited Athens and various cities in Italy. I was very excited because this was the first time I had travelled abroad with just my friends. This desire to travel started off simply as a way to have something to look forward to after exams, but I soon discovered how important it is to travel.
On my travels I have had the opportunity to not only experience new and exciting cultures through the art, history, language and food, but also communicate with people who have different views on life. Travelling is a learning experience for both yourself and the people you meet. Some people I met during my travels had never heard of Gambia and it was very delightful to share my African roots with them. When you travel you will meet people who have different cultural backgrounds and as a result, sometimes your own ideas and opinions might be challenged. Ifs important to learn to see things from other people's perspectives (观点)and to challenge your own.
This is how I realized that travelling is the realization of home. When you travel you are exposed to a different setting, a different language and a different way of living. All these factors, mixed with a new and exciting adventure, make you realize your own home. Not just the physical location of home, but also your way of life and your outlook.
Travelling is truly an enriching experience and I am always excited about the discoveries that wait for me in my next adventure!

Beijing's Forbidden city is a place full of wonder. From its thousands of rooms to its many beautiful artifact,there's no wonder it's one of China's most popular tourist destinations.
But even more than 600 years after it was built, it's still managing to serve surprises. Since it was built during the Ming Dynasty, it's estimated that the Forbidden City has survived more than 200 earthquakes. And while most structures aren't made to survive natural disasters., let alone ones built hundreds of years ago, it seems that the Forbidden City was built to withstand anything.
A recent television documentary by UK broadcaster Channel 4 explored the skills of the ancient building's designers. A group of Chinese carpenters and engineers were shown building a scale model (成比例模型)of one of the Forbidden City's palaces, at one fifth of the size.
To show how strong ancient Chinese architecture really is, the model was put to the test. It was subjected to a simulated (模拟的)earthquake of 9.5 on the Richter scale—equivalent to the largest ever recorded quake—and survived. Instead of falling apart, the model was just moved gently during the test.
According to experts, the answer to the Forbidden City's strength, as well as other ancient Chinese structures1, lies in dougong—a centuries-old building method invented in China. This is the name for special brackets on buildings. Though being held together without any nails or glue, the brackets are perfect at keeping structures together when the weather gets rough.
The Forbidden City draws visitors because of its rich history and culture, but perhaps it should add one more thing to its list: earthquake shelter.
1.Which one of the followings can we not infer from the passage
A.The Forbidden City has been built for more than 600 years.
B.The Forbidden City has survived many natural disasters.
C.Many ancient buildings are designed to withstand disasters.
D. Some Chinese craftsmen appeared in the UK documentary.
2.Which of the following can best replace the underlined phrase "was subjected to" in Paragraph 4
A.suffered
B.was controlled by
C.obeyed
D.was affected by
3.What is "dougong" according to the text
A.A paint that gives Chinese buildings an attractive look.
B.A tool used by ancient people to measure earthquakes.
C.Special building parts that keep a traditional Chinese building together.
D.A building piece located in the center of a traditional Chinese house.
4.What is the article mainly about
A.What has made the Forbidden City a popular tourist destination.
B.What has helped the Forbidden City survive so many earthquakes.
C.The characteristics of Chinese architecture during the Ming Dynasty.
D.A variety of building methods used in ancient Chinese structures.

People who like travelling have their reasons. They believe that travelling can help them expand their field of view, especially in the geographical and historical sense. They also think that touring will give them more chances to enjoy different kinds of food and experience new things that would never be brought by other activities. But those who dislike travelling also have some reasons.
Travelling, in my opinion, does more good than harm. Most importantly, it broadens our mind. We can get in touch with other civilizations, cultures, customs and ideas.
Through history, most people travelled because of necessity一not for pleasure. People travelled just in order to remain alive. They searched for food to eat or places to live in. They sometimes ran away from enemies. This is not to say that no one ever travelled just for the fun of it. In ancient times, for example, rich Romans travelled all the way to Greece to take part in the Olympic Games, and festivals. Of course, some people decided to travel just out of curiosity. They wanted to find out what it looked like beyond the horizon. Also business travel has been going on for centuries. Traders could not only make money but also learn to speak several languages and be introduced to different cultures.
So, travelling does enrich our mind and draw new ideas to us. There is no doubt that we can get much from it.
5. The underlined word "expand" in Paragraph 1 can be replaced by .
A. widen B. protect
C. lose D. decide
6. According to the passage, in the past most people travelled .
A. for fun B. for knowledge
C.to get experience D. to make a living
7.In the writer's opinion, travelling can be .
A. expensive B. funny
C. helpful D. tiring
8.What’s the main idea of this passage
A. Different kinds of travelling.
B.Travelling enriches our mind.
C.Ways to enjoy yourself while travelling.
D. The advantages and disadvantages of travelling.

“Where are you " I asked. "Where can I meet you to get the camera?"
I didn't have to travel far. Janet lived just fifteen minutes away—she attended our sister church the next town over.

One weekend in July, Jane and her husband,Tom, had driven three hours to camp overnight by a lake in the forest. Unfortunately, on the way an unpleasant subject came up and they started to quarrel. By the time they reached the lake, Jane was so angry that she said to Tom, “I’m going to find a better spot for us to camp” and walked away.
With no path to follow, Jane just walked on for quite a long time. After she had climbed to a high place, she turned around, hoping to see the lake. To her surprise, she saw nothing but forest and, far beyond, a snow-capped mountain top. She suddenly realized that she was lost.
“Tom! ” she cried. “Help! ”
No reply. If only she had not left her mobile phone in that bag with Tom. Jane kept moving, but the farther she walked, the more confused she became. As night was beginning to fall, Jane was so tired that she had to stop for the night. Lying awake in the dark, Jane wanted very much to be with Tom and her family. She wanted to hold him and tell him how much she loved him.
Jane rose at the break of day, hungry and thirsty. She could hear water trickling somewhere at a distance. Quickly she followed the sound to a stream. To her great joy. she also saw some berry bushes. She drank and ate a few berries. Never in her life had she tasted anything better. Feeling stronger now, Jane began to walk along the stream and hope it would lead her to the lake.

Paragraph 1:
But no more helicopters came and it was getting dark again. Immediately, an absolute darkness ruled the forest. Jane, exhausted and scared, lay down near a stone, missing her family at a distance. All the fantastic memory crowded in and she couldn't help crying, "Hadn't I quarreled with Tom, walked away and climbed to the high place, I wouldn't be trapped in this awful place, confronted with the danger of dying." She regretted with endless anxiety, and then became asleep with shining tears in her eyes.
Paragraph 2:
It was daybreak when Jane woke up. Weak as she was, she struggled to her feet, continuing searching for assistance. To her great joy, a helicopter was flying overhead again and again. Eager and excited, she flagged her yellow blouse and spared no effort to yell so as to attract others' attention. Fortunately, she was eventually noticed and brought into the helicopter. There, she saw her husband,_a man staring at her, wearing an expression of relief. As tightly as possible, she hugged him and was too thrilled to say anything. Besides, they agreed never to quarrel again.
