【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了著名文学家托马斯·哈代的生平经历。
4. 细节理解题。根据第二段第三句“Later he moved to London and began writing poems, but his works were rejected by publishers.(后来他搬到伦敦，开始写诗，但他的作品被出版商拒绝。)”可知，哈代的写作生涯是从诗歌开始的。故选C。
5. 词句猜测题。根据第三段第三句中的“real places around Dorset into the plot(……多塞特郡的真实场景进入情节)”可知，此处是指在小说中把多塞特郡周围的真实场景融入了情节，所以incorporated意为“包含，合并”。故选A。
6. 细节理解题。根据第四段“Hardy followed this with Far From the Madding Crowd, set in Puddletown, near his birthplace. This novel finally netted Hardy the success that enabled him to give up his architectural practice and concentrate only on writing.(哈代接着写了《远离喧嚣》，故事发生在他出生地附近的普德镇。这部小说最终为哈代赢得了成功，使他能够放弃建筑实践，只专注于写作。)”可知，在《远离喧嚣》后哈代全身心投入到写作当中。故选B。
7. 推理判断题。根据第三段第三句“As with most of his fictional works, this novel incorporated real places around Dorset into the plot, including the village school that Hardy attended.(与他的大多数虚构作品一样，这部小说将多塞特郡周围的真实地方融入了情节，包括哈代就读的乡村学校。)”和第六段“In 1887, Hardy published The Woodlander, a story concerning an honest woodsman in a small village. Then in 1891 one of his best works, Tess of the d’Urbervilles, came out, which was set primarily in the English countryside during the 19th century.(1887年，哈代出版了《樵夫》，讲述了一个小村庄里一个诚实的樵夫的故事。1891年，他最好的作品之一《德伯家的苔丝》问世了，故事主要发生在19世纪的英国乡村。)”可知，哈代大部分小说的常见元素是乡村生活。故选D。
【导语】本文是记叙文。24岁的Martin以诱捕为生，他认为有些动物过量会对环境有害，他很喜欢他的生活方式。
8. 根据上文“Trapping used to be a way to make a good living. That has certainly changed over the past several years. The demand for furs is nearly gone. Environmentalists think trapping is wrong.(诱捕曾经是谋生的好方法。这种情况在过去几年里已经发生了变化。对皮草的需求几乎消失了。环保主义者认为诱捕是错误的)”可知，设空处在此起承上启下的作用，与上文存在语义上的转折，同时又引出下文Martin的故事。G项中的However是解题关键词，且其中的trapping remains a way of life和上文中的trapping is wrong语义相反，G项中的Johnny Martin又引出本文的主人公。故G选项“然而，对于24岁的Johnny Martin来说，捕兽仍然是‘一种生活方式’”符合语境，故选G。
9. 根据上文中“He traps enough animals to make up for low fur prices.(他捕捉了足够多的动物，以弥补毛皮价格低廉的损失)”和下文Martin所说的“I can make up for low fur prices by bringing in more than the average trapper(我可以赚到比一般捕兽人更多的猎物来弥补毛皮价格低的不足)”可知，Martin认为数量甚至比质量更重要，故选D项。故D选项“对我来说，数量比质量重要得多”符合语境，故选D。
10. 根据下文中“his home is filled with animal skins.(他的家里到处都是动物皮)”和“It’s also not easy for him to take a day off.(对他来说，休息一天也不容易)”可知，此处是指Martin全职猎捕也有缺点，故C项符合语境。此句为本段主题句。故C选项“不过，全职工作也有缺点”符合语境，故选C。
11. 根据上文中的“It’s also not easy for him to take a day off.(对他来说，休息一天也不容易)”和下文Martin所说的“Then, I spend the rest of the evening skinning animals and preparing for the next day(然后，我把晚上剩下的时间用来给动物剥皮，为第二天做准备)”可知，这里描述Martin从早到晚的忙碌状态，故F选项“我的一天通常在太阳升起之前开始，一直持续到天黑之后”符合语境，故选F。
12. 根据上文中“He thinks that most anti-trapping groups don’t understand that trapping animals helps in the long run.(他认为大多数反诱捕组织不明白诱捕动物从长远来看是有帮助的)”和下文Martin所说的“They don’t understand the animals’ environment(他们不了解动物的生存环境)”可知，A项Most of these people don’t know how animals live符合语境，其中的understand和know是同义词复现，且下文中的They就指Most of these people。故A选项“大多数人不知道动物是如何生活的”符合语境，故选A。

Thomas Hardy was born at Higher Bockhampton, Dorset, on June 2, 1840, where his father worked as a builder. From his father he gained an appreciation of music, and from his mother an appetite for learning and the delights of the countryside about his rural home.
Due to his poor health, Hardy did not start school until he was eight. At 16, Hardy helped his father with architectural drawings and then started to work for architects. Later he moved to London and began writing poems, but his works were rejected by publishers. In 1870, he was sent to work in Cornwall. There he met his future wife Emma Gifford, who encouraged him in his writing.
Hardy published his first novel Desperate Remedies in 1871, to universal disinterest. But the following year Under the Greenwood Tree brought Hardy popular praise for the first time. As with most of his fictional works, this novel incorporated real places around Dorset into the plot, including the village school that Hardy attended. After Under the Greenwood Tree came a serialized novel A Pair of Blue Eves. Once more Hardy drew upon real life, and the novel mirrors his romance with Emma.
Hardy followed this with Far From the Madding Crowd, set in Puddletown, near his birthplace. This novel finally netted Hardy the success that enabled him to give up his architectural practice and concentrate only on writing.
The Hardys lived in London for a short time, then in Yeovil, then in Sturminster Newton, which Hardy described as “idyllic (田园诗般的)”. It was at Sturminster Newton that he penned Return of the Native, one of his most enduring (持久的) works.
In 1887, Hardy published The Woodlander, a story concerning an honest woodsman in a small village. Then in 1891 one of his best works, Tess of the d’Urbervilles, came out, which was set primarily in the English countryside during the 19th century.
Tess excited interest, but his next work, Jude the Obscure (1896), threw Hardy into a storm of controversy (争议), which made him turn away from fiction and focused on poetry for the rest of his life.
4. What do we know about Hardy
A. He was into drawing as a young man. B. He got fame at first attempt of writing.
C. His writing career started with poems. D. His wife Emma shared his interest.

Trapping used to be a way to make a good living. That has certainly changed over the past several years. The demand for furs is nearly gone. Environmentalists think trapping is wrong. 8
Martin started trapping when he was nine. He makes a pretty good living by trapping animals like rabbits, foxes, etc. He traps enough animals to make up for low fur prices. “ 9 I can make up for low fur prices by bringing in more than the average trapper,” he said. Farmers also hire Martin to trap annoying animals. He receives two dollars for each gopher he traps. The Department of Natural Resources has also contracted with Martin. About twelve times a year, he traps beavers that have destroyed private land.
10 For example, his home is filled with animal skins. It’s also not easy. for him to take a day off. State law requires that traps be checked every day. “It can be very hard work,” Martin said. 11 “Then, I spend the rest of the evening skinning animals and preparing for the next day. I really don’t get a day off during trapping season.”
As a full-time trapper, Martin worries about the views people have of his profession. He thinks that most anti-trapping groups don’t understand that trapping animals helps in the long run. “ 12 They don’t understand the animals’ environment,” he said. “There are areas where I can’t trap right . now. Most of the animals in those areas are sick with disease because of the lack of food and overpopulation. I’d like to show anyone who is against trapping some of the terrible things I’ve seen.”
A. Most of these people don’t know how animals live.
B. Rabbits aren’t the trapper’s most valuable creatures.
C. Trapping full time does have its drawbacks, though.
D. For me, quantity is much more important than quality.
E. Besides, trapping brings him and his family other benefits.

New App Helps People Remember Faces
Large gatherings such as weddings and conferences can be socially overwhelming. Pressure to learn people’s names only adds to the stress. A new facial-recognition app could come to the rescue, but privacy experts recommend proceeding with caution.
The app, called Social Recall, connects names with faces via smartphone cameras and facial recognition, potentially avoiding the need for formal introductions. “ It breaks down these social barriers we all have when meeting somebody, ” says Barry Sandrew, who created the app and tested it at an event attended by about 1,000 people.
After receiving an invitation to download Social Recall from an event organizer, the user is asked to take two selfies and sign in via social media. At the event, the app is active within a previously defined geographical area. When a user points his or her phone camera at an attendee’s face, the app identifies the individual, displays the name, and links to his or her social media profile. To protect privacy, it recognizes only those who have agreed to participate. And the app’s creators say it automatically deletes users’ data after an event.
The start-up has also developed a version of the app for individuals who suffer from prosopagnosia, or “ face blindness, ” a condition that prevents people from recognizing individuals they have met. To use this app, a person first acquires an image of someone’s face, from either the smartphone’s camera or a photograph, and then tags it with a name. When the camera spots that same face in real life, the previously entered information is displayed. The collected data are stored only on a user’s phone, according to the team behind the app.
Ann Cavoukian, a privacy expert who runs the Privacy by Design Center of Excellence praises the app’s creators for these protective measures. She cautions, however, that when people choose to share their personal information with the app, they should know that “ there may be unintended consequences down the road with that information being used in another context that might come back to bite you. ”
