26、 In 1826, a Frenchman named Niepce needed pictures for his business, but he was not a good artist. So he invented a very simple camera. He put it in a window of his house and took a picture of his yard. That was the first photograph.
The next important date in the history of photography was 1837. That year, Daguerre, another Frenchman, took a picture of his studio. He used a new kind of camera and a different process. In his pictures, you could see everything very clearly, even the smallest details. This kind of photograph was called a daguerreotype.
Soon, other people began to use Daguerre’s process. Travelers brought back daguerreotypes from all around the world. People photographed famous buildings, cities and mountains. In about 1840, photographers could take pictures of people and moving things. Mathew Brady was a well - known American photographer. He took many pictures of famous people. He was also the first person to take pictures of a war. His 1862 Civil War pictures showed dead soldiers and ruined cities. They made the war seem more real and more terrible.
In the 1880s, new inventions began to change photography. Photographers could buy films ready - made in rolls. So they did not have to make the film themselves. The invention of the small handheld camera made photography less expensive. With the small camera, anyone could be a photographer. They took pictures of their families, friends and favorite places. They called these pictures “snapshot”.
Photographs became very popular in newspapers in the 1890s. Soon magazines and books also used documentary photographs. These pictures showed true events and people. They were much more real than drawing.
Photography also turned into a form of art by the end of the 19th century. Some photographs were not just copies of the real world. They showed ideas and feelings, like other art forms.

27、Both men and women are living longer these days in industrialized countries. 【1】 In general, they can expect to live six or seven years more than men. One reason for this is biological.
One important biological factor that helps women live longer is the difference in hormones between men and women. 【2】 Between the ages of about 12 and 50, women produce hormones that are involved in fertility(生育能力). These hormones also have a positive effect on the heart and blood flow. In fact, women are less likely to have high blood pressure or to die from heart attacks.
【3】They help the body defend itself against some kinds of infections. This means that women generally ger sick less often and less seriously than men. The common cold is a good example: women, on average, get fewer colds than men.【4】Scientists are still not exactly sure how influence aging, but they believe that they do. Some think that a woman’s body cells have a tendency(向) to age more slowly than a man’s. Others think that a man’s body cells have a tendency to age more quickly.【5】
A．However, women, on average, live longer.
B．The biological factor plays an important part.
C．Women are also helped by their female genes.
D．The female hormones also protect the body in another way.
E．Recent research seems to support both of these possibilities.
F．Therefore, women are more healthy than men and can live a better life.
G．Hormones are chemicals which are produced by the body to control carious body functions.
28、 China is known for its long history, rich culture, and cute pandas. It’s also known for some of the worst air quality in the world. But the Asian country is now using a natural weapon against air pollution — trees.
In February, China’s government announced plans to cover at least 32,400 square miles with forest. That is about the size of Ireland. Some 60,000 soldiers will take charge of the tree-planting program. Most of the trees will be planted in Hebei Province. That is an area surrounding China’s capital, Beijing.
Huang Wei is an environmentalist who works for Greenpeace East Asia. She is optimistic about the plan. “Trees act as a sink to absorb carbon dioxide and other pollutants,” she said. Carbon dioxide is a gas that traps the Earth’s heat. It contributes to global warming.
Why is China’s air filled with harmful chemicals? It’s because the country relies on coal-fired power plants. When coal is burned, PM2.5 is produced. PM2.5 is a pollutant. It can cause shortness of breath, heart attacks, and even death.
Just two years ago, pollution levels were so high in Beijing that schools and factories had to close. Huang hopes China’s tree-planting plan will reduce the nation’s suffering from air pollution.
The Chinese government is getting help from others in its drive to make the nation greener. Stefano Boeri is an Italian architect and urban planner. He is leading an effort to plant vertical (垂直的) forests in China.
Boeri’s designs have already taken root in the city of Nanjing, China. That’s where the Nan-jing Green Towers are under construction. The building has two towers. Thousands of trees and hanging plants will grow on the balconies and rooftops.
Boeri says his goal is to design buildings that help the environment and improve air quality. He also hopes to encourage a new generation of green architects.
【1】What measure is China taking to improve the air quality according to the passage?
A.Planting more tress.
B.Closing the electricity factories.
C.Forbidding people to burn coal.
D.Designing new buildings.
【2】What does Huang Wei think of the new plan?
A.Doubtful. B.Uncertain.
C.Promising. D.Ineffective.
【3】Which of the following has the closest meaning to “contributes to” in paragraph 3?
A.Adapts to. B.Results in.
C.Refers to. D.Concentrates on.
【4】Why is Stefano Boeri invited to China to design buildings?
A.Because his design can keep the polluted air outside the house.
B.Because his buildings are built in forest.
C.Because his design is special with two towers.
D.Because his design is environmentally friendly.
29、 When you're a parent to a young child, you spend a lot of time talking about feelings: about having to share, about being disappointed because you may not have a cookie instead of broccoli(绿花椰菜）， about the great injustice of a parent pressing the elevator button before the child has a chance to.
And in a parenting culture that's increasingly concerned with centering children's needs above all else, mothers and fathers have become skillful at talking about their kids' feelings while masking their own. But new research suggests that parents who hide their negative emotions are doing their children, and themselves harm.
A study published this month says that when parents put on a faux-happy(假开心）face for their kids, they do damage to their own sense of wellbeing and authenticity.
“For the average parent the findings suggest when they attempt to hide their negative emotion expression and over express their positive emotions with their children, it actually comes at a cost: doing So may lead parents to feel worse themselves, "researcher Dr. Emily Impett, says.
It makes sense that parents often fall back on amping up(扩大）the positivity for the sake of their children-there are a lot of things in the world we want to protect our kids from. But children are often smarter than we expect and are quite in tune with what the people closest to them-their parents-are feeling.
There was a time about a year or so ago, for example, when I received some bad news over the phone; I was home with my four-year-old and so I did my best to put on a brave face. She knew immediately something was wrong though, and was confused.
When I finally let a few tears out and explained that Mom heard something sad about a friend, she was, of course, just fine. My daughter patted my shoulder, gave me a hug, and went back to playing. She felt better that she was able to help me, and the moment made a lot more sense to her emotionally than a smiling mom holding back sobs. I was glad that I could feel sad momentarily and not have to work hard to hide that.
Relaying positive feelings to your children when you don't feel them is a move the researchers called high cost-that it may seem like the most beneficial to your child at the time but that parents should find other ways of communicating emotions that" allow them to feel true to themselves”。
But this is also about children seeing the world in a more honest way. While we will want to protect our children from things that aren't age-appropriate or harmful, it's better to raise a generation of kids who understand that moms and dads are people too.
【1】What is the typical behavior of parents when they bring up their children?
A.Allowing their children chances to do things themselves.
B.Expressing their dissatisfaction with their children.
C.Sharing their favorite food with their children.
D.Hiding their true feelings from their children.
【2】If parents put on a faux-happy face,_
A.their children will be protected
B.their children will be taken in
C.they will experience worse feelings
D.they will feel happy as a result
【3】The author mentioned the example of her daughter to show______.
A.children are not so clever as parents think
B.it's meaningful for parents to always look positive
C.children can often understand parents' true feelings
D.it's necessary to expose children to harmful things
【4】We can conclude from the passage that_____
A.protecting children from age-inappropriate things is important
B.children will admire their parents more because of being protected
C.it makes sense for children to know their parents' bad feelings
D.separation from bad feelings helps children see the world honestly
