If so, our great new competition is for you! All you have to do is take a picture that sums up your sense of family life. The competition will be judged by the RD (Reader’s Digest) team and award-winning photographer Barry Marsden. To get your creative juices flowing, here are two of our regular photographers’ tips for taking great pictures. Pal Hansen The most important thing is to carry a camera around with you at all times. Use manual (手动的) settings as much as possible. Now that everything is digital I’d also say, “Shoot as much as possible,” because it doesn’t cost anything. Michelle McCarron Kids find wonder in the simplest things, so as a photographer it helps to be ready for those moments. The connection across generations is sometimes best captured in a photograph. Frame your subject well. Get close to the action, or your subject, and choose your angle (角度) carefully. A slightly odd angle can make a photo different. HOW TO ENTER ★ Take a clear photo with either a phone or digital camera. Send it to rdphotocomp@readersdigest. co.uk by 5 pm, August 30, 2014. Please include a brief explanation of who’s in the entry (参赛作品). ★There are two categories — one for adults and one for under-18s. ★In the adult category, the winner will receive £500. The under-18 winner will receive £250 of high-street vouchers (代金券) for a store of their choice. Rules: Please make sure that pictures are not published before. If you are under 16 you must ask your parent’s permission to enter this competition. We will use entries in all print and electronic media. We cannot return your entry. Entry is not open to employees of Vivat Direct Ltd (trading as Reader’s Digest) and all other persons associated with this competition, their immediate families, and relatives living in an employee’s household. The judges’ decision is final. 21. What do we know about the photo competition? A. It is designed for readers of RD. B. Entries must be about family. C. Photos must be taken by a camera. D. Pal Hansen is one of its judges. 22. To take part in the competition, one should _____. A. be 18 years old or above B. send in his entry in August C. ask his family’s permission D. give a description of his entry 23. According to the text, winners of the competition will _____. A. each win£500 B. get their entries back C. see their pictures published D. be offered some vouchers B He runs from explosions, drives over waterfalls and jumps from tall buildings. That might sound like Superman, but stuntman (特技演员) Vince Deadrick Jr. is very much human. As a stuntman in movies and television shows, Deadrick admits he’s no stranger to getting hurt. He has suffered broken bones, bled, gotten knocked out and nearly fallen to his death, but he considers himself lucky to be alive after some of the stunts he has performed. Deadrick has been a stunt coordinator (协调员) for the Nickelodeon channel for 12 years. He has worked with famous actors, directors and producers, and he has traveled all over the world. But that doesn’t mean his work is easy. It took him years of hard work to get where he is today. Deadrick’s father, Vince Deadrick Sr., was also a stuntman, but his family connection didn’t give Deadrick a free pass into the movie business. He learned from his dad how to set up cardboard boxes and fall pads for high falls, and he started training on his own once he decided to follow in his father’s footsteps. As a stunt coordinator, Deadrick takes danger seriously. When he hires a new stunt performer, he looks for a professional. “You’re only as good as the people you hire,” he says. A stuntman needs to know his own abilities and limitations so he won’t shy away from doing his best but also won’t be such a daredevil (铤而走险的人) that he could hurt himself or others. When the actors and stuntmen are going to do something dangerous, they need to know they’re trusting the right person. With over 40 years in the business, Deadrick is an expert at making stunts both realistic and safe. Though he has a large amount of responsibility, Deadrick loves his job. “I’m in a position where I have to make decisions on risk factors, keeping the actors and stuntmen safe while still making it look impressive. I love my business, and I love the excitement.” 24. It can be inferred from Paragraph 2 that Deadrick is _____. A. careless B. optimistic C. unfortunate D. generous 25. What do we know about Deadrick’s path to success? A. He picked up his stunt skills from a stuntman. B. He made it with hard work and great effort. C. His dad offered him great encouragement. D. His dad led him into the movie business. 26. When hiring stuntmen, Deadrick _____. A. can’t be too careful B. prefers the fearless ones C. likes those with no limitations D. puts experience above all else 27. What does Deadrick think of his job? A. Hard and boring. B. Easy and attractive. C. Skilled but relaxing. D. Challenging but exciting. C The Oxford English Dictionary has just named its Word of the Year. From “Eurogeddon”, to “green-on-blue” and “Games Maker” to “Mobot”, many words that have crossed over into real usage had been shortlisted. The winner of the American edition (版本) is GIF — short for Graphics Interchange Format (图像互换格式). The winning word of the British edition is “omnishambles” — a situation that has been completely mismanaged because of careless mistakes. Language is as old as humans. In some ways it is surprising that languages change at all. It’s interesting to note that the English language has developed more rapidly in the last few centuries, adding many words to its vocabulary, than just a few centuries ago. As the language develops, it will be interesting to follow the influences of social events, new technologies, industries, products and experiences that bring more richness to our language. Over the last few years, the influence of the Internet has without exception been the greatest on our society. It has given us many words — maybe even taking over the English language. And this year is no exception. The American edition’s word this year is GIF. GIF refers to a type of format for pictures that can be used to create simple animations (动画). Have you seen a flip book or perhaps created one? These are books with a little picture up in the right-hand corner of each page and if you flip the pages quickly enough it appears as if the little pictures are moving. Similarly to create a GIF, you can put some pictures together. When you move these pictures rather quickly, your eyes see them as movement. GIF made its simple beginnings in 1987. While it is more usually pronounced with a hard g (like [ɡ] in “great”), the programmers who developed the format prefer the use of a soft g (like [dʒ] in “general”). Animated GIFs are now commonly seen on the Internet. This year, the animated Gangnam style GIF was extremely popular. 28. The new words mentioned in Paragraph 1 are to show _____. A. the Oxford English Dictionary is worth buying B. too many words have appeared on the Internet C. the English language is developing quickly D. the English language has a large vocabulary 29. The last but one paragraph is mainly about _____. A. what GIF is actually about B. why GIF has become popular C. how to make an animated GIF D. when GIF made its beginnings 30. Which of the following words has a soft g? A. Dog. B. Sign. C. Garden. D. Gentle. 31. What would the author most probably talk about next? A. Something about “omnishambles”. B. The importance of a dictionary. C. The future of the Internet. D. The history of languages. D As each semester begins, my colleague greets his students wearing a jacket and tie. “You make only one first impression,” he says. So while the rest of the semester he teaches class in his usual, more casual clothes, the first week he presents a different image. His thought is that students will remember their first meet positively and more readily think highly of him as the semester goes on because that favorable first impression has an influence on them. The sequence (顺序) that we meet matters in how we judge subsequent (后来的) information. The big influence of first impressions is related to the halo effect, where the perception (看法) of positive qualities in one thing or part gives rise to the perception of similar qualities in related things or in the whole. Here is an example: You meet a friendly person at a party and later are asked to collect money for a worthy cause. You call that person because you think she will make a contribution. In reality, there is no connection between being pleasant and being generous. Yet the halo effect leads you to think that the two are related. The halo effect is powerful, but it is questionable whether it matters much in long-term relationships, such as that between teacher and student. While dressing up may make students think the teacher must know his subject matter because he creates a professional first impression, the effect wears thin if the person turns out to be a poor teacher after all. First impressions matter but they don’t have the final word. Facts speak louder. If you had never seen or heard of Einstein, the first time you saw him your impression would most likely be negative. Now his face is connected with genius (天才), not madness because he is the person who has come to define what genius is. The problem is that few of us are Einsteins and we often don’t get the chance to change a negative first impression. 32. The author explains the halo effect mainly by _____. A. giving an example B. making a comparison C. setting down general rules D. following the order of importance 33. In the author’s eyes, the halo effect _____. A. is surprisingly powerful B. matters more in the long run C. may affect our judgment of others D. makes some teachers irresponsible 34. The author uses the example of Einstein to show the importance of _____. A. appearance B. truth C. impressions D. fairness 35. The author seems to advise readers _____. A. to mind their first impressions B. not to judge a book by its cover C. not to follow others’ judgments D. to pay no attention to the halo effect 第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分) 根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Four benefits of writing by hand Today is National Handwriting Day! Although we don’t write like we used to, here are four ways handwriting is still helpful. It’s better for learning. 36 That’s because putting ink to paper stimulates (刺激) the brain. One study from 2010 found that the brain areas related to learning “lit up” much more when kids were asked to write words like “spaceship” by hand versus just studying the word closely. 37 Many famous authors prefer writing by hand to the use of a typewriter or computer. Writer Susan Sontag once said that she penned her first drafts (草稿) before typing them up for editing later. She said, “38” A 2009 study seems to support Sontag’s preference for writing by hand: Elementary school students who wrote essays with a pen not only wrote more than their keyboard-tapping friends, but they also wrote faster and in more complete sentences. It will prevent you from being distracted (分心). The computer in front of you is really a distraction. 39 In 2012, scientists even suggested that taking five-minute breaks to browse Tumblr or BuzzFeed could make you a more productive worker. However, when it’s time to work on that essay, have only a pen and paper in front of you. It keeps your brain sharp as you get older. 40 According to The Wall Street Journal, some physicians say that the act of writing is good exercise for those who want to keep their minds sharp as they age. A. It makes you a better writer. B. Writing is good for your brain. C. Of course, the Internet isn’t all bad. D. I like the slowness of writing by hand. E. Try writing by hand at least 20 minutes each day. F. Many writers have a preference for writing by hand. G. One of the most effective ways to study is to rewrite your notes by hand. 第三部分:语言知识运用(共两节,满分45分) 第一节:完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分) 阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 When I was young, I had always wanted a baby sister, someone who loved me and understood me. My mother 41! She’d always regretted her own 42 of sisters: “I’m going to make sure you aren’t 43 when you grow up,” she said. But she didn’t keep her word. From the time I was three until I was ten, she did nothing but 44 baby brothers. I did my best to persuade my mother’s uterus (子宫) to grow a girl. I waved pink blankets and hair ribbon around my mother. Nothing 45. Finally, when she’d delivered her fifth son, my mother 46 making promises. “Paul, that’s all,” she declared to my father. The boys broke the 47 of our days and turned our home into a chaos of toys. “It’s 48 me,” my mother screamed. However, having brothers wasn’t all 49.

For many years now, my brothers’ 55 have provided the 56 I always dreamed of — choosing the oversize sweater for Christmas the year I 57 weight, visiting frequently to cheer me up when I was in hospital, 58 their children as my own hope for motherhood became less and less likely. I can always 59 the diets we’ve tried, the walks we’ve taken, the stories we’ve shared, the meals we’ve cooked and the babies we’ve chased. Both my brothers and my sisters-in-law have become the most 60 part of my life, showing me the blessing of belonging. 41. A. decided B. refused C. answered D. promised 42.
