58、laundry line. There are portraits of Muhammad Ali and Jean-Michel Basquiat, plus a series of cityscapes detailedly captured over 60 years by Alex Harsley, a neglected but talented New York photographer.The city has been Mr Harsleys home since 1948, when, aged ten, he moved there from South Carolina.
59、 He took his first photograph ten years later, and became the first black photographer to work for the citys district attorneys office. His vivid pictures freeze moments in New Yorks evolution from the 1950s to the present. “It could start with the smell of something burning.” he says of his method.
60、 “And then you see a family sitting on the steps of a funeral home sadly looking at the firemen going through their routine.”Some of the scenes in the collection were captured from the window of his old apartment in Harlem; they include images of black activists, streets submerged in snow and shots

62、 For decades, it is also a hub for the citys artistic underworld. In the 1970s New Yorks photography scene was flourishing, but exclusive. As Mr. Harsley puts it, “a number of great artists were swept aside” because they lacked connections. Helping talent became part of his mission. In 1971 he estab

He opened his gallery two years later; many photographers have had their first shows there.(正如哈斯利所说,“许多伟大的艺术家都被扫地出局了”,因为他们之间缺乏联系。帮助人才成为他使命的一部分。1971年,他成立了“小众摄影家”组织,帮助那些崭露头角的艺术家展示自己的作品。两年后,他开了自己的画廊,许多摄影师都在那里举办了他们的第一次展览)”可知,他通过在崭露头角的艺术家和著名艺术家之间建立联系来帮助其他的摄影师。故选C项。(B)TROUBLESHOOTINGFor pos

79、 41. C 42. D【解析】本文是一篇说明文。文章是咖啡机质量报告的一部分,介绍了咖啡机会出现的故障,产生故障的原因以及解决方法。【40题详解】细节理解题。根据表格最后一条“The appliance does not come on.It is not plugged into the mains socket.”(设备不工作。它没有插入电源插座。”可知,如果设备不工作,可能是因为没有插到插座上。故选B。【41题详解】细节理解题。根据表格第三条“The coffee does not come out of the spouts, but from around the service
80、door.Clean the spouts with a toothpick.”(咖啡不是从壶口而是从服务门流出。用牙签把壶口清理干净。)可知,咖啡不能从壶口流出来时,可以用牙签检查一下。故选C。【42题详解】推理判断题。根据表格上方的“For possible malfunctions as described below, please contact Customer Services at 1-800-2020-123”(如遇以下可能发生的故障,请致电1-800-2020-123与客户服务中心联系)可推知,这篇文章很可能来自咖啡机质量报告。故选D。(C)That easterners
81、and westerners think in different ways is not mere prejudice. Many psychological studies conducted over the past two decades suggest Westerners have a more individualistic, analytic and abstract mental life than do East Asians. Several hypotheses (假设) have been put forward to explain this.One, that
82、modernization promotes individualism, falls at the first hurdle: Japan, an ultra-modem country whose people have retained a collective outlook. A second, that a higher rate of infectious disease in a place makes contact with strangers more dangerous, and causes groups to turn inward, is hardly bette
83、r. Europe has had its share of plagues; probably more than either Japan or Korea.That led Thomas Talheim of the University of Virginia and his colleagues to look into a third suggestion: that the crucial difference is agricultural. The basic West crop is wheat; the Easts rice. Before the mechanizati
84、on of agriculture a farmer who grew rice had to spend twice as many hours doing so as one who grew wheat. To organize labour efficiently, especially at times of planting and harvesting, rice-growing societies as far apart as India, Malaysia and Japan all develop co-operative labour exchanges which l
85、et neighbors stagger their farms schedules in order to assist each other during these crucial periods. Since, until recently almost everyone alive was a farmer, it is a reasonable hypothesis that such a collective outlook would dominate a societys culture and behaviour, and might prove so deep-roote
86、d that even now, when most people earn their living in other ways, it helps to define their lives.Mr. Talheim realized that this idea is testable. Large areas of Asia, particularly in the north, depend not on rice, but on wheat. That, as he explains in a paper in Science, let him and his team put so
87、me flesh on this theorys bones. The team gathered almost 1,200 volunteers from all over Asia and asked them questions to assess their individualism or collectivism. The answers bore little relation to the wealth of a volunteers place of origin. There was a striking correlation, though, with whether
88、it was a rice-growing or a wheat-growing area. This difference was marked even between people from neighbouring counties with different agricultural traditions.Undoubtedly, Talheims hypothesis has pointed to a direction worth further exploration. Viewing the message from modernized countries such as
89、 Japan, Korea and Singapore, which still hold on to collectivism, perhaps we can say: Asian values-with their principles of mutual support and collective action-are only Asian because back in ancient times, farmers in many parts of that continent found rice a more suitable crop to grow than wheat.43
90、. According to the second paragraph, which statement does the author most probably agree with?A. The first hypothesis fails to justify Japans ever-keeping collectivism as well as the second.B. The exposure to plague outbreaks increases the probability of the Europeans to turn back to individualism.C
91、. Modernized Japan stays close to collectivism as firmly as Europe maintains individualism in the times of plague.D. Neither modernization, as with Europe, nor the once prevailing plague, as with Japan, gives any evidence that promotes individualism.44. What does the underlined word “stagger” probab
92、ly mean?A. arrange events so that they do not happen at the same timeB. help something to develop more strongly because its about to collapseC. plan or organize something in advance to make it neat or attractiveD. offer something to somebody and receive something in return45. Mr. Talheim studied the
93、 Asian volunteers growing wheat in order to find out .A. whether growing wheat results in more sharing behavior.B. whether growing wheat leads to more prosperous community.C. whether the local crop affects the local economy positively.D. whether the local crop is related to local peoples mental life
94、.46. Which of the following can serve as the best title for this passage?A. A good beginning makes a good ending.B. The grass is greener on the other side.C. As you sow, so you will reap.D. You are what you eat.【答案】43. D 44. A 45. D 46. D【解析】【分析】这是一篇议论文。文章主要阐述了东方人倾向于集体主义,而西方人倾向于个人主义的几个不同假设,重点议论了这种现象
95、与种植什么农作物有关。【43题详解】推理判断题。根据第一句话“One, that modernization promotes individualism, falls at the first hurdle: Japan, an ultra-modem country whose people have retained a collective outlook.(其一,现代化促进了个人主义,第一个障碍落在了日本,一个极度现代化的国家,但它的人民保持了集体的观点。)”可知,假设一提出的现代化无法作为现代化促进个人主义的证据;根据第二句和第三句话“A second, that a higher
96、 rate of infectious disease in a place makes contact with strangers more dangerous, and causes groups to turn inward, is hardly better. Europe has had its share of plagues; probably more than either Japan or Korea.(第二,传染病在一个地方的高发率会使与陌生人的接触更加危险,并导致群体转向内向,这说法也不比第一个好到哪里去。欧洲也遭受过同样的灾难;可能比日本和韩国都要多。)”可知,假设
97、二提出的传染病的发生也无法作为促进个人主义的证据,所以无论是像欧洲那样的现代化,还是像日本那样的曾经盛行的瘟疫,都没有任何证据表明会促进个人主义。故选D项。【44题详解】词句猜测题。根据第三段句子“To organize labour efficiently, especially at times of planting and harvesting, rice-growing societies as far apart as India, Malaysia and Japan all develop co-operative labour exchanges which let neig
98、hbors stagger their farms schedules in order to assist each other during these crucial periods.(为了有效地组织劳动,特别是在种植和收获的时候,远在印度、马来西亚和日本的水稻种植社都发展了合作劳动交换机制,让邻国错开他们的农场时间表,以便在这些关键时期互相帮助)”可知,印度、马来西亚和日本的水稻种植社通过合作劳动交换机制使彼此的务农日程错开,故可判断“stagger”的意思为安排一些事情使它们不同时发生。故选A项。【45题详解】细节理解题。根据第四段“The answers bore little r
99、elation to the wealth of a volunteers place of origin. There was a striking correlation, though, with whether it was a rice-growing or a wheat-growing area.(这些答案与志愿者的出生地几乎没有关系。然而,这与它是水稻种植区还是小麦种植区有着显著的相关性。)”可知,研究种植小麦的志愿者主要是为了找到人们的集体主义文化是否与种植的农作物有关,即农作物的种植是否与所在地人们的精神生活有关。故选D项。【46题详解】主旨大意题。根据第三段最后一句“Si
100、nce, until recently almost everyone alive was a farmer, it is a reasonable hypothesis that such a collective outlook would dominate a societys culture and behaviour, and might prove so deep-rooted that even now, when most people earn their living in other ways, it helps to define their lives.(因为在近代以
101、前几乎每个人都是农民,所以假说认为这种集体观念会支配一个社会的文化和行为是有道理的,而这种观念可能已深深扎根于文化,以至于到今天,尽管大部分人不以农业为主,但这多少还是决定了他们的生活)”可知,文章主要认同人们的文化观念是与他们所在地方种植的农作物有关,例如在种植水稻的地区的人们更偏向于集体主义,他们吃的什么农作物他们就是什么样的,故本文标题为吃什么就是什么。故选D项。【点睛】阅读理解题的解题方法,首先,宏观浏览,掌握大意。不要困扰在个别词汇的翻译上,偶有生词,走为上计。其次,读懂题干,带着问题再去微观细读。最后,分析句子,慎思明辨。阅读理解题之细节理解解题要注意:1.排除干扰项,突出主题。2
102、.按文章的体裁,作者写作的组织模式及有关信息,预测应该到何处寻找自己所需要的事实。3.将注意力放在寻找你所需要的细节上,快速浏览,一目十行。发现细节,十目一行,放慢速度,仔细核对比较,直到找到正确答案。例如本文第2题,根据第三段句子“To organize labour efficiently, especially at times of planting and harvesting, rice-growing societies as far apart as India, Malaysia and Japan all develop co-operative labour exchan
103、ges which let neighbors stagger their farms schedules in order to assist each other during these crucial periods.(为了有效地组织劳动,特别是在种植和收获的时候,远在印度、马来西亚和日本的水稻种植社都发展了合作劳动交换机制,让邻国错开他们的农场时间表,以便在这些关键时期互相帮助)”可知,印度、马来西亚和日本的水稻种植社通过合作劳动交换机制使彼此的务农日程错开,故可判断“stagger”的意思为安排一些事情使它们不同时发生。故选A项。Section C (8 分)Directions:
