16、eresting or beautiful, there is a natural desire of us to capture (捕捉) and preserve it which means, in this day and age, that we are likely to reach for our phones to take a picture.Though this would seem to be an ideal solution, there are two big problems associated with taking pictures. Firstly, w
17、e are likely to be so busy taking pictures that we forget to look at the world whose beauty and interest encourage us to take a photograph in the first place. And secondly, because we feel the pictures are safely stored on our phones, we never get around to looking at them, so sure are we that well
18、get around to them one day.The first person to notice the problems was the English art critic (评论家), John Ruskin. He was a keen traveler who realized that most tourists make a poor job of noticing or remembering the beautiful things they see. He argued that humans have a natural tendency to respond
19、to beauty and desire to have it, but there are better and worse expressions of this desire. At worst, we get into buying souvenirs or taking photographs. But, in Ruskins eyes, theres just one thing we should do attempting to draw the interesting things we see, regardless of whether we happen to have
20、 any talent for doing so.Ruskin said, “Drawing can teach us to see: to notice properly rather than gaze absentmindedly. In the process of recreating with our own hands what lies before our eyes, we naturally move from a position of observing beauty in a loose way to one where we acquire a deep under
21、standing of its parts.”Ruskin deplored the blindness and hurry of modern tourists, especially those who prided themselves on traveling around the whole Europe in a week by train, “No changing of places at a hundred miles an hour will make us stronger, happier, or wiser.There was always more in the w
22、orld than men could see, if they ever walked slowly; they will see it no better for going fast. The really precious things are thoughts and sights, not pace.”8According to Paragraph 2, when taking pictures, people tend to _.Aforget to appreciate something attractive on the spotBfind it hard to learn
23、 skills of taking good picturesCfind a good way to keep things in their mindsDhave a chance to meet the challenge of new technology9According to Ruskin, what should travelers do to best express their appreciation of and desire for something beautiful?ATo speak it out openly.BTo photograph it instant
24、ly.CTo purchase it immediately.DTo paint it directly.10From the fourth paragraph, we can infer that Ruskin encourages us to be _.Aconsiderate and determinedBactive and adventurousCcreative and thoughtfulDsensitive and ambitious11The underlined word “deplored” in the last paragraph is closest in mean
25、ing to “_”Aappreciated BcriticizedCfavored DignoredDScientists recently discovered three tyrannosaur (霸王龙) trackways in Canada. The trackways suggest the meat eaters traveled and hunted in groups. The 70millionyearold footprints are the first tyrannosaur trackways ever found. Tyrannosaurs were a typ
26、e of meateating dinosaur that included the strong Tyrannosaurus rex and Albertosaurus. “Groups of tyrannosaurs may have stuck together as a group to increase their chances of bringing down animals and individually surviving，” study coauthor Richard McCrea says. He works for Canadas Peace Region Pala
27、eontology Research Centre. Its believed that tyrannosaurs were_solitary_creatures. The newly discovered trackways could change the way scientists look at these frightening beasts.Trackways can uncover a lot about the social behavior of a species. Unfortunately, very few tyrannosaur footprints have e
28、ver been found, and until recently, the only ones known were single prints discovered in Mongolia, the western US., and western Canada. But in October 2011, a hunting guide named Aaron Fredlund found two tyrannosaur track marks near Tumbler Ridge, an area in the foothills of the Canadian Rockies. Ov
29、er the next year, McCrea and his team searched the site and found the remaining trackways.The footprints are at about the same depth, which suggests the tyrannosaurs moved through the area at the same time. Impressions of the dinosaurs rough skin are even visible in the prints. The prints are also i
30、n nearperfect condition. Thats because the ground had a high clay (黏土) content when the dinosaurs walked through the area. The land was later covered by a thick layer of volcanic ash, which kept the marks intact (完整的). “This is the most ideal situation you could ask for，” McCrea says.Researchers are
31、nt sure of the exact species of tyrannosaur that left the prints. But the historic findings show a great deal about how the beasts moved and behaved. “We have extremely convincing evidence that tyrannosaurs traveled in groups，” says McCrea. “This is probably the most important evidence to come out t
32、o date on that topic.”12What do the underlined words “were solitary creatures” in Paragraph 2 mean?ACaused others to be scared.BUsually had animal meat as food.CUsually spent much time alone.DWere able to live for a long time.13What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?AThe means of footprints.BThe discovery
33、 of tyrannosaur footprints.CThe protection of tyrannosaur footprints.DThe study results of tyrannosaur footprints.14Why were the tyrannosaur footprints well protected?AThe dinosaurs left deep footprints.BThe natural condition was perfect.CThe area was untouched by humans.DThe geological activities w
34、ere active.15Which of the following will McCrea most probably agree to？AMore tyrannosaur footprints would be found.BThe social behaviors of dinosaurs are similar.CThe mystery of tyrannosaur remains to be solved.DThe findings are the basis of the research of dinosaurs.第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后
