阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

In 1826, a French man named Niepce needed pictures for his business. But he was not a good artist. 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, Daguerre, 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 pictures of famous buildings, cities and mountains.

In about 1840, photography was developed. Then photographers could take pictures of people and moving things. That was not simple. The photographers had to carry a lot of films 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 pictures of great people. The pictures were unusual because they were very lifelike.

Photography also became one kind of art by the end of the 19th century. Some photos were not just copies of the real world. They showed our feelings, like other kinds of art.

The first photo was a picture of Niepce's _______.

business

house



garden

window



The Daguerreotype was _______.

a Frenchman

a kind of picture



a kind of camera

a photographer



This passage tells us_______.

C

There is growing concern about food insecurity in the developing world. Rising food prices, weather emergencies and political problems are deepening the struggle for families in many countries.

Three UN agencies have published a report recently, saying high prices are likely to continue. Gregory Barrow, who is with the World Food Program in Rome, says, “If you look at the places where the World Food Program works, particularly in developing countries, you see people who might be spending more than 60 percent of their salary in purchasing food for their families.”

East Africa is suffering its worst drought in years. In Kenya, at least three and a half million people are going hungry, mostly in the north. Yet food is going to waste in central Kenya. Now, farmers there want the government to buy their food and give it to those in need. Farmers say bad roads and lack of transportation make it difficult for them to get their produce to the market.

Mr. Barrow says, “It needs the government to make some arrangements such as providing transport. They can buy it at a good price, then give it to those people instead of asking for food from overseas, which is very bad. When we are throwing away food, they are asking for food from overseas.”

Economists say that imports reduce local food prices, decrease productivity(生产效率) and increase the dependency on other countries. Farmers in Kenya hope the government can pay higher prices for their crops so that they can feed more Kenyans.

What is the best title for this passage?

Kenya Imports Food from Abroad

World Food Program in Rome.

The Poor Suffer from High Food Prices.

A Report Published by Three UN Agencies.

What do we know about Kenya from the passage?

The people in central Kenya are suffering from hunger.

At least three and a half million Kenyans lack food.

The Kenyan government wants to improve road conditions.

People in northern Kenya refuse to ask for food from overseas.

What does “they” in the fourth paragraph refer to?

The people of northern Kenya.

Government officials.

The farmers of central Kenya.

Kenyan economists.

Which of the following statements is TRUE, according to this passage?

Gregory Barrow suggests that Kenya make good use of overseas food.

People in northern Kenya are suffering the drought less than the central.

Economists believe importing food from abroad may cause problems.

D. Kenyan government hopes to buy the native crops at higher prices.

we can't tell a contestant is winning because he is really talented or because there is no comparison?

Hunan Satellite TV is losing its leading position? There's a reason for saying this. In 2012, the reality talent show, the Voice of China, on the Zhejiang Television became the most popular program in China.

The reason for its popularity was really because of its excellent quality? Or can we assume that without any opponent,
