Paparazzi, or “paps”, are photographers who take pictures of famous people when they are not at the center of public attention. Paps are different from professional photographers or journalists because they never take ordinary photos.
The goal for paparazzi is to get pictures that no one else will get and then sell the pictures to the buyer who offers the most money — normally a small newspaper, magazine or website.
There is no law against paparazzi taking pictures in public places. However, there are laws that protect certain individuals. For example, child protection laws stop improper pictures of anyone under 16 from being published.
There is also no law that stops paparazzi from following celebrities and taking their pictures either. However, if paps are secretly following them and taking pictures of their faces, they could get into trouble.
Most paparazzi hang out on streets and hot spots for celebrities, waiting for the opportunity to take a picture of a star. Many stay on the streets until the early hours of the morning when celebrities are leaving nightclubs and looking a little worse for wear. However, some have other
ways to make sure they get pictures. Many paps are in contact with “informers” who know the locations of celebrities at any given time. They then pass the information on to paparazzi. An informer could be anyone — from a restaurant waiter to a salesman.
Most of the time, paparazzi get a bad reputation for following celebrities. But sometimes stars or their managers will contact paps themselves and tell them exactly where and when they will go.
What a love-hate relationship between paparazzi and celebrities!
1. Which of the following things paparazzi might do would be against the law?
A. Taking pictures of famous people in public places.
B. Hanging out at the places where celebrities often appear.
C. Following a famous woman singer secretly and taking her pictures.
D. Getting unsuitable pictures of a 10-year-old actress published.
2. In order to earn big money, a pap has to .
A. get the only first-hand pictures B. sell the pictures to a big newspaper
C. make friends with famous people D. know the locations of celebrities
3. The fifth paragraph mainly tells us .
A. how paparazzi get the pictures B. how dangerous paparazzi’s job is
C. how much paparazzi get paid for the pictures D. how paparazzi contact informers
4. What can we infer from the passage?
A. Paparazzi always take pictures when famous people are tired.
B. Paparazzi and famous people rely on each other sometimes.
C. Stars hate paparazzi and don’t want to be followed.
D. Informers might get paparazzi into trouble.
C
Shopping for clothes is not the same experience for a man as it is for a woman. A man goes shopping because he needs something. His purpose is decided in advance. He knows what he wants, and his objective is to find it and buy it; the price is a secondary consideration. All men simply walk into a shop and ask the assistant for what they want. If the shop has it in stock(有现货的), the salesman immediately introduces it, and the business of trying it on follows at once. All being well, the deal can be and is often completed in less than five minutes, with hardly anychat
and to everyone’s satisfaction.
For a man, slight problems may begin when the shop does not have what he wants, or does not have exactly what he wants. In that case the salesman, as the name implies, tries to sell the customer something else, he offers the nearest he can to the article required. No good salesman brings out such a substitute impolitely; he does so with skill, “I know this jacket is not the style you want, sir, but would you like to try it for size? It happens to be the color you mentioned.” Few men have patience with this treatment, and the usual response is, “This is the right color and may be the right size, but I should be wasting my time and yours by trying it on.”
Now how does a woman go about buying clothes? In almost every way she does so in the opposite way. Her shopping is not often based on need. She has never fully made up her mind what she wants, and she is only “having a look round”. She is always open to persuasion; in fact she sets great store by what the saleswoman tells her, even by what companions tell her. She will try on any number of things. Uppermost in her mind is the thought of finding something that everyone thinks suits her. Opposite to a lot of jokes, most women have an excellent sense of value when they buy clothes. They are always on the lookout for the unexpected bargain. Faced with a roomful of dresses, a woman may easily spend an hour going from one rail to another before selecting the dresses she wants to try on. It is a tiring process, but obviously an enjoyable one. Most dress shops provide chairs for the waiting husbands.
1. The underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 suggests when a man is shopping .
A. he chooses the cheap ones
B. he buys whatever he likes
C. he often buys and then regrets
D. he does not care much about the price for the right things
2. What does a man do when he cannot get exactly what he wants?
A. He usually does not buy anything.
B. He buys so long as the style is right.
C. He buys a similar thing because of the color he wants.
D. At least two of his requirements must be met before he buys.
3. What is the most obvious difference between men and women shoppers?
A. Women have a good sense of value, but men do not.
A. Women bargain for their clothes, but men do not.
B. Men do not try clothes on while women do.
C. Women spend lots of time shopping for clothes, but men do not.

C. how women go about buying clothes
D. why a man goes shopping
D
By proving that we are able to recycle 100% of the building materials at very low cost, the cardboard house is a direct challenge to the house industry to reduce housing and environmental costs.
A cardboard house places the least demand on resources and encourages people to shift their ideas about the “typical Australian house”. Many Australians enjoy camping on their holidays, easily shifting their lifestyle from the inflexibility of the city home to the freedom of the campsite.
Being very low cost and transportable, the cardboard house could be widely used. You could live in one while your permanent house is being built or repaired, for emergency housing, or for short-term housing.
Cardboard is not made of traditional building materials. However, the introduction of pioneer connection, cutting and structural techniques has provided the chance to consider this lightweight and recyclable material in a more creative fashion. And what happens when it rains? The roof is waterproof, thanks to HDPE plastic (that’s a kind of special plastic), which is also used for water storage tanks under the house. All the materials of the house are recycled, and recyclable, making it an excellent environmentally sustainable ( 能持续的) choice for housing. The cardboard house is made of recycled cardboard supplied by Visy Industry. This is completed with a waterproof made from HDPE plastic, which also forms the material of the flexible under floor water tanks and the new kitchen and bathroom “pods (容器)”.
Environmental features: uses 85% recycled materials; all materials are 100% recyclable; recycling the house saves 12 cubic meters of landfill, 39 trees and 30,000 liters of water.
12. Which is the best title of this passage?
A. Cardboard Houses of the Future B. Structures of Cardboard Houses
C. Materials of New Houses D. Costs of Cardboard Houses
12. According to the passage, a cardboard house will mainly .
A. reduce housing and environmental costs
B. prepare for you forever living in it
C. make you love city life more
D. change the present building materials
13. How does the cardboard house change Australians’ lifestyle?
A. It uses the least building resources.
B. It gives them the freedom of camping.
C. It provides them with chances to communicate.
D. It gives them more chances to enjoy city life.

Different weather makes people feel different. It influences health, intelligence and feelings.
In August, it is very hot and wet in the southern part of the United States. 16 In the Northeast and the Middle West, it is very hot at some times and very cold at other times. People in these states have more heart trouble after the weather changes in February or March.
The weather can also influence intelligence.

Students in many schools of the United States often get worse on exams in the hot months of the year (July and August)

The Italian dinners we had every Sunday when I was a boy were feasts fit for a king. There were loaves of Italian bread ready to be eaten. 41 were great with butter and even 42 (good) when you dipped them in the sauce (调味汁). My grandma, 43 we called “Nanny”, would always bake them a day ahead so they would be ready. I remember watching her hands make the dough ( 面 团 ). I would often ask to help but only because I wanted to have 44 bite of the dough before she placed it in the pans to bake.
One day I 45 (foolish) asked Nanny why she didn’t just buy bread at the store 46 (save) time. “Because they’re not as good,” she said 47 her thick Italian accent. Then she laughed, smiled, and gave me a piece of dough to eat.
Nanny was right. Today I buy my bread at the store and it isn’t as good. It is factory-made and 48 (lack) all the taste, 49 (warm), and love that Nanny put into hers. Store-bought happiness is a sad substitute for homemade joy. 50 you want lasting love, permanent peace, and endless joy, then you have to bake them on your own.

Patience is of great importance in our daily life. Once I waited a bus to come at a stop. Thirty minutes past, but no bus came. Both upset and annoyed, I decided to walk on feet. But no sooner had I left when the bus arrived. I thought if I had waited for one more minute, I would have caught it. If I chose to take a next bus, I would have to wait for other 30 minutes. Only then do I realize my problem. Being impatient will possible waste all the efforts that I have put it in. Now whenever I am close to lose my patience, I’ll think of this experience.
