Belt has worked for National Geographic since l978，and has taken pictures on almost every continent in the worldIn fact, Antarctica is the only continent Belt hasnt seen yet Belts photographs are well known for their beauty and high qualityThey also reflect very different cultures and regions of the worldBelt has photographed the ancient city of Petra，Jordan，as well as the green landscapes of the Lake District in EnglandRecently，her pictures appeared in a book about undeveloped natural places in North America Everywhere that Belt goes，she takes pictures of peopleBelt has found ways to connect with people of all ages and nationalities even when she does not speak their language“The greatest privilege of my job is being allowed into peoples lives”she has said“The camera is like a passport，and I am often overwhelmed by 1 how quickly people welcome me!” Knowing how to break the ice has helped to make Belt a successful photographerbut experts say that anyone can learn to connect with new peopleWhen people speak the same language， greetings and small talk can make strangers feel more comfortable with each otherWhen people dont speak the same language，a smile is very helpfulHaving something in common can also help break the ice 2For example，Belt has traveled with her two children，so when she takes pictures of children or their parents，they all have that family connection in commonEven bad weather can help people to connect when they are experiencing it together Belt has some advice if you are thinking about a career in photographyYou can volunteer to take pictures for a local organization that cant afford to hire a professional photographerYou can also take a good，honest look at your best photographsIf youre a real photographer，your photos are good because of your personal and technical skillsBelt also recommends studying and learning from photos taken by professional photographers Remember，the next time you look at a beautiful photograph，you might be looking at the work of Annie Griffiths BeltAnd the next time you meet a new person，dont be afraid to break the iceThe connection you make could be very rewarding词汇：landscape

mentioned答案与题解：1B在第二段第三行，作者提到贝尔特曾经为英格兰湖区的美景拍过照片，那她自然就去过英格兰。因此，这一题题干的表述(贝尔特从没去过英格兰)明显是错误的。2A第一段第三行说到南极洲是贝尔特唯一没亲眼见过的大洲，那么她必然没去过南极洲。因此这一题题干的表述(贝尔特从没去过南极洲)是正确的。3C第一段第一行提到贝尔特从l978年就开始为国家地理杂志工作，可是并无其它信息，因此我们无从得知在1978年之前，贝尔特是否还为其它杂志工作过。因此我们既没法说贝尔特只为国家地理一家杂志工作过，也没法说贝尔特在很多家杂志工作过。因而，我们无法在文中找到这一题题干所表述的信息(贝尔特在很多家杂志工作过)，答案只能是C。4A在第二段第二行，作者提到贝尔特曾经在约旦的古城佩特拉进行过拍摄，这迎合题干的表述(佩特拉是一座古老的约旦城市)。因此答案为A。5B在第三段第一行第二句话，作者提到：在语言不通的情况下，贝尔特找到了和不同年龄、不同民族的人沟通的方法。而题干中的表述(贝尔特只能和会说英语的人沟通)和文中的信息完全不符，因此答案为B。6A在第四段第七行，作者提到：一起体验坏天气能够帮助人们增进相互间的交流。这和题干的表述(人们在坏天气下能够相互沟通)基本一致，因此答案为A。7A第五段第一行提到贝尔特为希望从事摄影行业的人提供了一些建议：当个志愿者为没钱请专业摄影师的地方机构拍摄照片。这和题干的表述(做一名志愿者是开始摄影生涯的一种方式)基本吻合，因此答案为A。第十二篇Starting a New Tradition Shantelle Davis is a nine-year-old girl in New YorkOn a cold night in Decemberher family is standing around the kitchen table while she lights a candleThe table is decorated with baskets of fruits and vegetables and ears of corn for Shantelle and her two brothers “This candle represents umoja，an African word that means being together,” Shantelle says“Thats the most important thing for a family” Tonight is the first night of Kwanzaa，and Shantelle is spending the holiday with her familyMore than 5 million African Americans celebrate Kwanzaa every year from December 26 until January lIts a time when they get together with their families to think about their history and their ancestors in Africal Kwanzaa is very unusual because it was started by one manIn l966,an American named Maulana Karenga wanted a holiday for AfricanAmericans to honor their culture and traditionsSo he used words and customs from Africa to create a new celebrationHe took the name Kwanzaa from the words for “first fruits” in Swahili, an African languageAt first, a few American families had small celebrations at homeNow there are also Kwanzaa events in schools and public places，and Kwanzaa has spread to other countries like Canada and Jamaica The main symbol of Kwanzaa is a candleholder with seven candies, one for each of the principles of KwanzaaEach night，a family member lights one of the candles and talks about the idea it represents：being together，being yourself，helping each other，sharing，having a goal， creating，and believingThe candles are red，black，and green，the colors of KwanzaaThe parents also pour drinks to honor family members who have diedOn the last night of Kwanzaa，there is a big dinner with African food, and children receive small presents Today people can buy Kwanzaa greeting cards and special Kwanzaa clothesStores sell Kwanzaa candles and candleholdersSome people dont believe that Kwanzaa is a real holiday, because its so newBut other people say that customs and celebrations are always changing and that Kwanzaa shows what is important in peoples lives 2Shantelle Davis says she likes Kwanzaa because its fun“But I also learn new things every year,”

Why do we form an opinion about someone without really knowing anything about him or her-aside perhaps from a few remarks or readily observable traits 2 The answer is related to how your brain allows you to be aware of the worldYour brain is so sensitive in picking up facial traits，even very minor difference in how a persons eyes，ears，noseor mouth ale placed in relation to each other makes you see him or her as different1In fact， your brain continuously processes incoming sensory information-the sights and sounds of your worldThese incoming “signals” are compared against2 a host of “memories” stored in the brain areas called the cortex system to determine what these new signals “mean” 3 If you see someone you know and like at school3,your brain says “familiar and safe.” If you see someone new, it says，“new-potentially threatening” .Then your brain starts to match features of this stranger with other “known” memories. The height，weight，dress，ethnicity, gestures，and tone of voice are all matched upThe more unfamiliar the characteristicsthe more your brain may say，“This is newI dont like this person”.0r else，“Im intrigued”. Or your brain may perceive a new face but familiar clothes，ethnicity，gestures-like your other friends；so your brain says：“I like this person”But these preliminary “impressions” can be dead wrong44 When we stereotype people, we use a less mature form of thinking(not unlike the immature thinking of a very young child)that makes simplistic and categorical impressions of othersRather than learn about the depth and breadth of people-their history，interest, values，strengths，and true character-we categorize them as jocks，geeks，or freaks 5 However, if we resist initial stereotypical impressions, we have a chance to be aware of what a person is truly likeIf we spend time with a person，hear about his or her life, hopes, dreams, and become aware of the persons character, we use a different，more mature style of thinkingand the most complex areas of our cortex, Which allow us to be humane词汇：traittreitn特点，特征，特性hosthustn一大群，许多simplisticsimplistikadj过分单纯化的sensorysensriadj感官的，感觉的categorical, ktigarikladj绝正确cortex/k:teksn脑皮层jockdk/ adj骗子ethnicityenistin种族特点geekgi:kn反常的人intrigueintrigv激起兴趣stereotypesteriutaipV对产生成见；freakfri:kn怪人humanehjumeinadj有人情味的，人文的注释：1Your brain is so sensitive in picking up facial traits，even very minor difference in how a persons eyes，ears，nose，or mouth are placed in relation to each other makes you see him or her as different从even开始到as different是个结果状语从句，相当于that even very minor，而 that是与主句中的so呼应的。2against：和对比3If you see someone you know and like at school:如果你在学校看到某个你认识而且喜欢的人like在这里是动词。4dead wrong：相当于completely wrong。dead wrong是口语表示用语。练习：1Paragraph 22Paragraph 33Paragraph 44Paragraph 5A Ways of Departure from Immature and SimplisticB Comment on First ImpressionC Illustration of First ImpressionD Comp
