In 1826, a Frenchman named Niepce needed pictures for his business .But he was not a good artist .So 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, Daguere, 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 Daguerre’s way .Travelers brought back wonderful photos from all around the world .people took picture of famous buildings, cities and mountains.
?In about 1840, photography was developed .Then photographers could take picture of people and moving things .That was not simple .The photographers had to carry a lot of film 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 picture of great people .The picture were unusual because they were very lifelike.
?Photographers also became one kind of art by the end of the 19th century .Some photos were nor just copies of the real world .They showed and feelings, like other kinds of art.

Most musicians agree that the best violins were first made in Cremona, Italy, about 200 years ago. These violins sound better than any others. They even sound better than violins made today. Violin makers and scientists try to make instruments like the Italian violins. But many aren’t the same. Musicians still prefer the old ones.
Some people think it is the age of the violins. But not all old violins sound wonderful. Only the old violins from Cremona are special. So age cannot be the answer.
Other people think the secret to those is the wood. The wood must be from certain kinds of trees. But the kind of wood may not be so important. It may be more important to cut the wood in a special way. Wood for a violin must be cut very carefully. It has to be the right size and shape. The smallest difference will change the sound of the violin. Musicians sometimes think that this was the secret of the Italians. Maybe they understand more than we do about how to cut the wood.
Size and shape may not be the answer either. Scientists can make new ones that are exactly the same size and shape. But the new violins still do not sound as good as the old ones. Some scientists think the secret may be the varnish (清漆). Varnish is what covers the wood of the violin. It makes the wood look shiny(光亮的). It also helps the sound of the instrument. No one knows what the Italian violin makers used in their varnish.
（ ）6.The passage is about .
A. the old Italian violins B. musical instruments
C. scientific ideas D. making violins
（ ）7.Other people think the Italian violin makers .
A. were lucky B. did not know much about the violin
C. used many kinds of wood D. knew something special
（ ）8.Violins made today _____.
A. have the same size and shape as the old ones
B. are better than the old ones
C. sound the same as the old ones
D. have the same varnish as the old ones
（ ）9.Some scientists believe that the secret of the old violin was .
A. their color B. their sound
C. their varnish D. the music
（ ）10.Why was the violin painted with the varnish?
A. To make the sound nice. B. To make the appearance shiny.
C. To value the violin. D. Both A and B．

This summer, the most popular touristy sight in China is Tibet. Why? Because the Qinghai-Tibet Railway was open on July 1.
The Qinghai-Tibet Railway is the first railway between Tibet and other parts of China. It is 1,142 kilometers long and is the world’s highest railroad.
About 960 kilometers of it is over 4,000 meters above the sea level. Many people thought it was impossible to build a railway so high. But the railroad was successfully completed last October.
The railway makes travel cheaper for Tibetans. Most of them don’t have enough money to travel by air.
It will also bring more tourists to Tibet. A recent Xinhua report said that the new railway will bring 3,000 to 4,000 tourists to Lhasa each day. In Shanghai, one travel agency has worked out a 10-day-trip from Shanghai to Lhasa at a price of 3,600 Yuan.
A railway trip to Tibet is more comfortable than driving or flying. Each train has special windows to keep out ultraviolet rays（紫外线） and sandstorms.
Thin air makes you feel sick. To stop this from happening, the train gives oxygen through its air-conditioning system. If you feel sick, you can find oxygen masks near the seats.
1. This summer, the most popular touristy sight in China is _________.
2. The Qinghai-Tibet Railway is the World’s highest railroad and it is _________ long.

Once there was an old farmer, with a horse which was almost as old as him. He set out
one morning with his young son, to sell the horse before it died. Father and son walked, because
the farmer did not want the horse to be too tired.
They met two men on the road who said, “Why are you walking, farmer? You have a horse. It’s a long way to the market.” The farmer knew that this was true, so he rode on the horse, while his son walked.
Then they met two old ladies. “What are you doing up there, farmer? Can’t you see how tired your boy is?” So the farmer got down, and his son rode instead.
Next, three old men stopped them. One said, “Why are you walking, farmer? Get up. It’s too hot for an old man like you to walk today.” So the farmer got up behind his son, and they rode on.
Some time later, a young woman passed them. “Why aren’t you walking?” she asked. “It isn’t far to the market. Give your poor old horse a rest.”
So the farmer and his son got down once again. It is a fact that you cannot please all the people all the time.

My favorite animals are pandas. I like them very much because they are gentle and shy. They are also friendly to people. And they look funny, too. Their eyes are the most interesting part. The black circles around their eyes make them look like they are wearing glasses or have just been in a fight. Their favorite food is bamboo leaves. They don’t like to move around very much. In fact, they prefer to sleep all day if they can.
But now pandas are endangered. For one thing, people have destroyed many of their habitats. For another, they don’t have enough food to eat. We must think of ways to protect them. I think we should build more panda zoos and plant more bamboo for them.
I hope everyone can do something for animals, so that we can keep our world rich and colorful and full of interesting animals.
