However, their remote locations m
61、ean that the French law is often ignored or unknown, thus making them into an interesting area of “lawlessness” in the world.2The lives of these people have finally been recorded thanks to the efforts of a Frenchman from Paris called Gin. Gin spent five months in early 2015 exploring the most remote
62、 corners of this area, which sits on the edge of the Amazonrainforest, with half its population of only 250,000 living in its capital, Cayenne.3“I have a special love for the French Guianese people. I have worked there on and off for almost ten years，” says Gin.“Ive been able to keep firm friendship
63、s with them. Thus I have been allowed to gain access to their living environment. I dont see it as a lawless land. But rather I see it as an area of freedom.”4“I wanted to show the audience a photographic record touching upon the uncivilized life，” continues Gin. “I prefer to work in black and white

68、4、5段画波浪线部分从摄影师的角度介绍圭亚那土著人生活的各个方面的情况详述情况第2步：微观突破理解障碍尝试翻译然而，他们偏远的位置意味着法国的法律经常被忽略或是不为人知的，因此这使他们变成一个世界上有趣的“不受法律约束”的地区。(二)这样做题名师解题28细节理解题。选A根据第一段中的“Surprisingly, these people live . should live by the French law”可知，作者感到惊讶的是法属圭亚那的土著人有自己的法律和社会风俗，他们很少遵守法国的法律。A项为同义替换。B项“他们常无视圭亚那法律”为曲解文意；C项“他们与现代社会隔绝”为无中生有；D项
69、“他们是圭亚那和法国居民”为混淆视听。29细节理解题。选D根据第四段中的最后一句及第五段中的第一句可知，Gin是以一名摄影师的身份介绍圭亚那的。D项为同义替换。A项“一个导游”；B项“一个地理学家”；C项“一位电影导演”均为混淆视听。30推理判断题。选D由第三段中的“I have a special love for the French Guianese people”和最后一句可知，Gin很欣赏圭亚那土著人的生活方式。D项为合理推断。A项“小心的”；B项“怀疑的”；C项“不感兴趣的”均为颠倒是非。31代词指代题。选A根据画线词所在句可知，it指代的是上文的“the lifestyle of

139、2选D上文提到母亲坚持让作者在圣诞节和生日写感谢信，D项(无论长短，无论工整与否，只要写信就可以)符合语境。3选G本段提到作者18岁时离家和父母书信联系，此处应该侧重家书的意义。G项(家书里面包含关于我的父母和他们的朋友日常的事情)符合语境，故选G项。4选E空格前一句提到我只能用书信和他们保持联系，空格后一句意思是“我发现比起谈话，书信经常能让我更轻松地表达自己的观点”，所以空格处应侧重体现这种书信联系对维系友谊的作用及意义，故选E项(但写信不仅没有毁掉我们的关系，反而似乎促进了我们的友谊)。5选C根据最后一段中的“Like .I insist they write their own thankyou letters. My daughter writes to me little letters, just as I did to my mother.”可知，作者成为母亲后坚持让儿女自己写感谢信，这一传统被沿用，故C项(我很高兴我的孩子正在沿用这个传统)符合语境。
