They are paparazziphotographers who make a living by taking

11、pictures of the rich and famous.This September, California, a state with plenty of celebrities, passed a law aimed at taking action against paparazzi. The law forbids photographers from entering private property to take pictures, from using high-tech devices to take pictures of people on private pro

12、perty, and from “persistently following in order to take a picture.” Violators can be fined or spend time in prison. The United State Congress is considering passing a similar law.Supporters of the California law say it will protect the privacy of celebrities, whom paparazzi have been bothering for

13、years. Opponents (反对者) say the law restricts photojournalists from doing their job.Most celebrities seem to like having their pictures taken when they are in public at award shows or other events. After all, its free publicity. But when theyre not in public, they say, photographers should leave them

14、 alone. Yet paparazzi have been known to secretly look in windows and worse. Actor Michael J. Fox said that paparazzi have even “tried to pretend to be medical personnel at the hospital where my wife was giving birth to our son.”Celebrities have as much right to their privacy as anyone else, support

15、ers of the law state. Supporters further argue that the California law is a fair way to keep the press at bay, because the law still allows photographers to do their job. It only punishes them, supporters say, when they violate celebrities privacy.Opponents of the law say it violates the First Amend

16、ment to the United States Constitution (美国宪法第一修正案), which guarantees that no laws will be made to limit “the freedom of speech, or of the press.”Although some people might not consider paparazzi a part of the legal press, the California law does not single out paparazzi. It applies to photographers

17、working for any publication.Opponents of the law are also concerned about its wording. “Does persistently mean following someone for six minutes, six seconds, or six days?” asked lawyer Douglas Mirell. The wording of the law is too vague, critics complain, and could be used to punish almost any news

18、 photographer.The United States needs a free press to keep the public informed about important news, paparazzi law opponents say. Limiting the press in any way, they argue, limits the freedom of all.1、Which of the following will be considered illegal by the new California law?APaparazzi slipping int

22、with the creative idea of an eco-bank which allows kids of all ages to become economically independent and financially wise while helping the environment.Established in 2012, The Bartselana Student Bank is the worlds first cooperative bank for kids. Whoever wants to join has to bring in at least 5 k

23、ilograms (11 pounds) of solid waste (paper or plastic) and establish a savings goal. Once accepted, all bank “partners” are required to deposit at least one additional kilogram (2* 2 pounds) of recydables on a monthly basis and obey other requirements, such as attending financial education and envir

24、onmental management workshops. The waste accumulated is sold to local recycling companies, who, thanks to some clever negotiation by Jose, pay a higher-than-market rate for everything brought in by Bartselana Student Bank members. The funds received are placed in the individuals account where they c

25、ollect until his/her savings goal is reached. The account holder can then withdraw his/her money, or choose to leave it and continue to grow for a bigger target.“At the beginning, my teachers thought I was crazy or that a child could not undertake this type of project,” Jose recalls. “They did not u

26、nderstand that we are not the future of the country but its present. Luckily, I had the support of the school principal and an assistant in my classroom.”The youngsters persistence paid off. Today, the eco-bank, which now has the support of several local institutions, has ten educational centers and

32、es of worship (祭祀) for Buddhist monks. Today theyre homes for 200 poor Afghan families and one classroom.Fereshta Ahmadi was able to stay in school after her family moved to the caves about a decade ago. Shes now a senior at an all-girls high school in Bamyan but she felt the need to educate the chi

33、ldren of cave settlers. So 6 years ago, she transformed her living space into a classroom.For 2 hours every day she teaches 30 primary school-age kids different subjects including English. She says she wants to give an opportunity to the children who dont have access to mainstream schools.“Cave sett

34、lers are no different from people who live in modern communities or people who live in fancy apartments and buildings.

So do humans. When you see an apple or apiece of chocolate you know that these are things you can eat.

40、You can also use other senses when you choose your food. You may like it because it smells good or because it tastes good. You may dislike some types of food because they do not look, smell or taste very nice. Different animals use different senses to find and choose their food. A few animals depend

41、 on only one of their senses, while most animals use more than one sense.Although there are many different types of food, some animals spend their lives eating only one type. The giant panda eats only one particular type of bamboo. Other animals eat only one type of food even when given the choice.

42、A land of white butterfly will stay on the leaves of a cabbage, even though there are plenty of other vegetables in the garden. However, most animals have a more varied diet.

47、All animals spend their lives eating one type of food.DThe diet of birds and fox will be the same depending on the season25（10分） A new study from brain researchers helps explain how the human brain evolved, or changed over time, to permit people to speak and write.Michael Ullman, the lead researcher

48、, a professor at Georgetown University Medical School in Washington, DC, has been studying language learning for more than 20 years.Ullman says his research shows that the human brain does not have a special area or system for making language. Over time we have simply reused or co-opted(指派) parts of

49、 our brain for language. And those parts, he says, are ancient-older even than humans themselves.This study examines the theoretical framework(准则) that language is learned, stored and processed in two ancient learning and memory systems in the brain.Ullman, Hamrick and the rest of the team looked at

50、 data from 16 other studies on language. They found that people learn language using two memory systems: declarative and procedural. Memorizing vocabulary, for example, is a declarative memory process. But learning grammar is, mostly, a procedural memory process.Declarative memory, in humans at leas

51、t, is what we think of as learning memory, such as, Oh, remember what you said last night or things like that. And procedural motor memory is what we often call motor memory such as how you learn to ride a bicycle. Or, Ullman adds, These procedural memory skills become so deeply leaned that we are n

52、o longer aware that we are doing them.However, Ullman explains that the two long-term memory systems can share tasks. And, he ads, the adult brain uses the systems to learn language a bit differently than a childs brain.Adult language learners of a second language may use their declarative memory fo

53、r using grammar patterns. They think about it purposefully. For a child, the grammar may come more naturally. They dont have to think about the grammar rules before speaking.In addition to language learners, Ullmans study could help people who have a brain injury that affects speaking and writing. T

54、his knowledge can also help those who have learning disabilities such as dyslexia(阅读障碍). People with dyslexia have difficulty recognizing words and symbols accurately.1、How did Ullman study humans memory systems?ABy examining the brain with his team.BBy studying language learning over years.CBy comp

55、aring different languages year after year.DBy referring to data from other studies on language.2、Which of the following is an example of motor memory?ALearning to make a model plane.BRemembering the grammar patternsCRepeating what you heard.DMemorizing what you read.3、What does the underlined word i

56、t refer to?ADeclarative memory.BAn adult language learner.CUsing grammar patterns.DA second language.4、Whats the main idea of the text?AUllman has advanced our language understanding.BA new research helps people learn a new language.CLearning memory is more active than motor memory.DHuman beings lea
