Like many in the mainstream press, I wanted to separate the world of photographers into “them”, who trade in picture of bodies or chase celebrities, and “us”, the serious news people. But after 16 years in that role. I came to wonder whether the two worlds were easily distinguishable.Working in the reputable world of journalism, I assigned photographers to cover other people’s nightmares. I justified invading moments of grief, under the guise(借口) of the reader's right to know. I didn’t ask photographers to trespass(冒犯) or to stalk(跟踪),but I didn’t have to: I worked with pros(同行) who did what others did: talking their way into situations or shooting from behind police lines to get pictures I was after. And I wasn’t alone.In the aftermath of a car crash or some other hideous incident when ordinary people are hurt or killed, you rarely see photographers pushing past rescue workers to capture the blood and gore(血雨腥风). But you are likely to see the local newspaper and television photographers on the scene - and fast.How can we justify our behavior? Journalists are taught to separate doing the job from worrying about the consequence of publishing what they record. Repeatedly, they are reminded of a news-business dictum(格言): leave your conscience in the office. You get the picture of the footage: the decision whether to print or air it comes later. A victim may lie bleeding, unconscious, or dead: your job is to record the image. You put away your emotions and document the scene.We act this way partly because we know that the pictures can have important meaning. Photographs can change deplorable(凄惨的) situations by mobilizing public outrage or increase public understanding.However, disastrous events often bring out the worst in photographers and photo editors. In the first minutes and hours after a disaster occurs, photo agencies buy pictures. Often an agency buys a picture from a local newspaper or an amateur photographer and put it up for bid by major magazines. The most keenly sought “exclusives” command tens of thousands of dollars through bidding contests.Many people believe that journalists need to change the way they do things, and it’s our pictures that annoy people the most. Readers may not believe, as we do, that there is a distinction between sober-minded “us” and sleazy(低级庸俗的) “them”. In too many cases, by our choices of images as well as how we get them, we prove our readers right.

正确答案 ：

解析：译文：作者认为拍摄人们噩梦般的经历是合理的。按照行文的顺序，文中对应的信息应该在第三段，通过题干中的关键词nightmares和justifiable，可以再该段的第二行找到，I assigned photographers to cover other people’s nightmares. I justified invading moments of grief, under the guise（借口） of the reader’s right to know.这句话表面的意思：我委派摄影师们去拍摄别人的噩梦，我为入侵别人伤心欲绝的时刻这一行为的合理性找到的借口是读者的知情权。（作文暗含的意思是摄影记者总是以读者知情权为幌子拍摄那些具有新闻价值的图片，而不顾忌当事人的感受）题干中的动词shooting在文中对应的动词是cover都是拍摄的意思，（同义替换的情况）justified是作者为自己行为开脱的合法性理由，因此从作者传达的本意来看，他并不认为这样一种行为是合理的。因此选项是错误。（wrong）考点细节信息查找

The report, which followed 73,000 women for 17 years,found walking for at least seven hours a week lowered the risk of the disease.The American Cancer Society team said this was the first time reduced risk was specifically linked to walking. UK experts said it was more evidence that lifestyle influenced cancer risk.A recent poll for the charity Ramblers a quarter of adults walk for no more than an hour a week,but being active is known to reduce the risk of a number of cancers.This study, published in Cancer Epidemiology,Biomarkers&Prevention,followed 73.615 women out of 97,785 aged 50-74 who had been recruited by the American Cancer Society between 1992 and 1993,so it could monitor the incidence of cancer in the group.They were asked to complete questionnaires on their health and on how much time they were active and participating in activities such as walking,swimming and aerobics（有氧运动）and how much time they spent sitting watching television or reading.They completed the same questionnaires at two-year intervals between 1997 and 2009. Of the women,47% said walking was their only recreational activity.Those who walked for at least seven hours per week had a 14% lower risk of breast cancer compared to those who walked three or fewer hours per week.Dr. Alpa Patel, a senior epidemiologist at the American Cancer Society in Atlanta, Georgia, who led the study, said:”Given that more than 60% of women report some daily walking, promoting walking as a healthy leisure-time activity could be an effective strategy for increasing physical activity amongst post-menopausal women.We were pleased to find that without any other recreational activity, just walking one hour a day was associated with a lower risk of breast cancer in these women.””More strenuous（紧张的）and longer activities lowered the risk even more.”Baroness Delyth Morgan, chief executive of Breast Cancer Campaign,said:”This study adds further evidence that our lifestyle choices can play a part in influencing the risk of breast cancer and even small changes incorporate into our normal day-to-day activity can make a difference.”She added:”We know that the best weapon to overcoming breast cancer is the ability to stop it occurring in the first place. The challenge now is how we turn these findings into action and identify other sustainable lifestyle changes that will help us prevent breast cancer.”

正确答案 ：

解析：译文：从Dr. Alpa Patel’的研究中可以推论出________？这是一道推论题，从题干部分的infer可以看出，相关的动词有：suggest, imply, conclude, indicate等都表示暗示、推导、总结、表明。选项往往表现为句子。首先通过题干部分的关键信息，Dr. Alpa Patel’（不可被同义替换掉的人名、职位名称）找到相关的段落（extensive reading）然后通过结合选项当中的关键词（名词、动词、形容词、副词等）进行筛选，由于是推论题，往往没有直接的信息，会有同义替换（paraphrasing）Dr. Alpa Patel, a senior epidemiologist at the American Cancer Society in Atlanta, Georgia, who led the study, said:”Given that more than 60% of women report some daily walking, promoting walking as a healthy leisure-time activity could be an effective strategy for increasing physical activity amongst post-menopausal women. We were pleased to find that without any other recreational activity, just walking one hour a day was associated with a lower risk of breast cancer in these women.””More strenuous（紧张的）and longer activities lowered the risk even more.”简便的办法是找到本段的重复词语“walking”显然该研究围绕“walking”的问题展开，该段的中心意思是：散步时健康的休闲方式，可以大大降低妇女乳腺癌的可能性。因此B. daily walking could cut the chance of breast cancer最为符合该段的中心意思（paraphrasing: from specific examples to category）考点推理判断

正确答案 ：

解析：译文：文中最后一段的“sustainable”和下列哪个词意思最为相近？通过查询字典和联系上下文“The challenge now is how we turn these findings into action and identify other sustainable lifestyle changes that will help us prevent breast cancer.””文中的意思找到一个可持续的生活方式的改变来帮助我们抗击乳腺癌，因此只有D选项最为合适。考点推理判断

St.Martin’s Press has announced the release of the paperback edition of Picking Cotton, a remarkable true story of what novelist John Grisham calls an “account of violence, rage, redemption(救赎)，and, ultimately forgiveness.”　　The story began in 1987, in Burlington, North Carolina, with the rape of a young while college student named Jennifer Thompson. During her ordeal, Thompson swore to herself that she would never forget the face of her rapist, a man who climbed through the window of her apartment and assaulted her brutally.________(1) When the police asked her if she could identify the assailant(袭击者) from a book of mug shots, she picked one that she was sure was correct, and later she identified the same man in a lineup.Based on her convincing eyewitness testimony, a 22-year-old black man named Ronald Cotton was sentenced to prison for two life terms. Cotton’s lawyer appealed the decision, and by the time of the appeals hearing, evidence had come to light suggesting that the real rapist might have been a man who looked very like Cotton, an imprisoned criminal named Bobby Poole._______ (2) Jennifer Thompson looked at both men face to face, and once again said that Ronald Cotton was the one who raped her.Eleven years later, DNA evidence completely exonerated(证明……清白) Cotton and just as unequivocally(明确地) convicted Poole, who confessed to the crime. ________(3) “The man I was so sure I had never seen in my life was the man who was inches from my throat, who raped me, who hurt me, who took my spirit away, who robbed me of my soul,” she wrote. “And the man I had identified so surely on so many occasions was absolutely innocent.”_______ (4) Remarkably both were able to put this tragedy behind them, overcome the racial barrier that divided them, and write a book, which they have subtitled “Our memoir of injustice and redemption.”Nevertheless, Thompson says, she still lives “with constant pain that my profound mistake cost him so dearly______ (5)”

正确答案 ：

解析：通过联系上下文可以看到，被指认的嫌疑人cotton的律师又有不服判决进行了上诉，下文提到受害人再次进行了指认。因此只有B. Another trial was held.举行了二审。最为符合。考点上下文之间意义关系、复现原则
