Nine-year-old Regina, from Scotland, has always loved taking photos. When she was just three, she picked up her father, Kevin’s camera, and asked him how it worked. But rather than just being a curious(好奇的) child or a girl with an inability to leave anything alone, Regina is in fact a professional wedding photographer. “Regina became interested in photography at a very young age, ” her father, and fellow professional photographer, Kevin, tells Daily Mail Australia. “She first started asking questions about how to use my cameras. Regina has never been on a training course,” He goes to explain that he has never forced his daughter to take photos like her dad does for his job. “I just answer questions when she asks them, and when she wants to do some shooting she can. Over the years she tagged along to quite a lot of shoots, so her skills just grew through experience.” These skills reached the highest point on April 15 this year, when Regina shot over 400 photos at her first wedding. “She completely love it,” Kevin said. “She is quite a quiet girl, but when she has that camera in her hands she is super-confident, and had no problem dealing with people or setting up shots throughout the day. Regina’s next wedding is on July 1 and several of my other brides have called to ask if she can come along as they love her work. I honestly don’t have words to describe how proud I feel,” he concluded. “In the past, Regina said a few times that she just wants to keep it as a hobby,” said Kevin. “But over the past few days, upon seeing some of the response her work has got and some of the nice messages she’s received from people all over the world, she has said she might like doing this when she’s older.” 1.From Paragraph 1 we can learn _______. A.Regina got the first camera from her father at the age of nine. B.Regina has been a professional photographer since she was three. C.Regina is interested in cameras and wants to know how to use it. D.Regina is a curious child and always leaves everything alone. 2.What did Kevin do to help Regina? A.He answered her questions about photography. B.He sent her to a training course to learn photography. C.He forced her to go to some wedding with him. D.He asked her to take photos as much as possible. 3.The underlined word “shooting” in Paragraph 2 probably mean “ ____ ”. A.射击 B.拍摄 C.发芽 D.投篮 4.From Kevin’s words, how does Regina feel when she takes a camera? A.She feels tired and leaves the camera alone. B.She is quiet and feels a little nervous. C.She is quite sure that she can do it well. D.She really wants to go to a training course. 5.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

Many years ago, people relied on the sun, the moon and stars to find their way around. Later, the compass (指南针) was introduced. And now, we have satnav (卫星导航) systems to guide us. A satnav system uses groups of satellites to show the user’s location. They send information to a receiver, such as a smart phone, to show us where we are. The earliest built satnav system is the Global Positioning System, which belongs to the US. Then there is Russia’s Global Navigation (导航) Satellite System, the European Union’s Galileo and China’s own satellite navigation system, BeiDou. On October 14, 2017, an ARJ21-700 plane, which was the first domestically-produced jet (国产喷气式飞机) equipped with the BeiDou navigation system, successfully completed a test flight. The results showed the performance of the system developed by China matches that of similar systems produced aboard, according to the Commercial Aircraft Corporation of China. Since its introduction in 2000, the Beidou navigation system has seen increasing numbers of applications linked to everyday life, from shared bikes to farming. When it comes to shared bikes, smart locks that support BeiDou chips offer more accurate positioning than others, making it easier to find a bike. Farmers can use BeiDou-enabled tractors to plow (犁) the soil and use unmanned aircraft with BeiDou to sow seeds, which can improve efficiency and make better use of resources. BeiDou’s farming applications have spread from Heilongjiang province to Beijing, Liaoning, Shanxi, Hubei and other regions across China. With its many uses, the Beidou navigation system is even playing a big role in the Belt and Road Initiative (一带一路). “To date, the BeiDou system has covered most parts of the Asia-Pacific region (地区), as well as countries along the Silk Road Economic Belt and the 21stCentury Maritime Silk Road” said Yang Changfeng, Chief designer of the BeiDou system. Today, there are more than 20 BeiDou satellites above our heads, and China plans to launch even more this year to expand the BeiDou network to better serve the Belt and Road Initiative. “As BeiDou expands its overseas reach, it will be increasingly popular in the logistics (物流) industry,” said Miao Qianjun, secretary-general of the navigation services association. “Ships, for example, can use it to position themselves while sailing across oceans to European countries, no longer limited to Southeast Asian regions in the near future.” 1.What is the purpose of the first two paragraphs? A.To compare some modern satnav systems. B.To describe the benefits of satnav systems. C.To tell us how satnav systems were created. D.To introduce some satnav systems and how they work. 2.What can we know about the BeiDou navigation system according to the article? A.It was used successfully in a new jet plane. B.It is more powerful than other satnav systems. C.It was introduced into China on October 14, 2017. D.It wasn’t used in our everyday life until recently. 3.According to the article, the BeiDou navigation system is already widely used for _________. A.plowing the soil and sowing seeds B.improving the efficiency of networks C.producing more smart locks for shared bikes D.navigating ships across oceans to European countries 4.What is Miao Qianjun’s attitude toward the future of the BeiDou system? A.worried B.uncertain C.positive D.doubtful 5.Where does the passage probably come from? A.A government report. B.A science magazine. C.A storybook. D.A science fiction.

阅读下面的短文,根据短文内容回答问题。 The idea that red means stop and green means go has influenced our lives in more ways than just traffic signals (信号). We have been taught from a young age that the color red means danger and green means it’s okay to move forward. But why were those colors chosen for traffic lights in the first place? For something we have to look at every day, why couldn’t they have been prettier colors? Well, it’s important to know that before traffic lights for cars, there were traffic signals for trains. At first, railway companies used red to mean stop, white to mean go, and green to mean warn. As you could imagine, trains ran into a few problems with white meaning go. For example, one train mistook a bright star for a white light and something unexpected happened. Because of that, railway companies finally moved green meaning go and used yellow to mean warn. And it’s been that way ever since. Red has always been a color that mean danger, long before cars were even around. This most likely started because it’s the color with the longest wavelength (波长) so it can be seen somewhere farther than other colors. But, believe it or not, yellow was once used to mean stop. Back in the 1900s, some stop signs were yellow because it was too hard to see a red sign in a poorly lit area. Finally, highly reflective materials (高反射材料) were developed and red stop signs were born. Since yellow can be seen well at all times of the day, school zones, some traffic signs, and school buses continue to be printed yellow. So next time you are impatiently waiting at a traffic light, don’t get so mad at them, they’ve certainly come a long way. Answer the following question with no more than 8 words. 1.How many colours have been used for traffic signals since the very beginning? 2.What did one train mistake for a white light? 3.Did the colour yellow mean go at first? 4.Why does red mean danger? 5.When were stop signs yellow?

阅读下面的短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词,每个空格只填一个单词。 As a saying goes, “If you have a good friend, your joys are doubled and your sorrows are halved.” Friends are a helping hand, a comforting shoulder to lean on, a patient ear to listen to you and most importantly, a warm and loving hug to embrace (拥抱) you. Man is a social animal by nature. We all need friends, as they are there for us when we need support, just as we are there for them whenever they need us. Therefore, it is necessary for you to know how to make friends. The first step is to open yourself up. If you want to make good friends, you should be able to share your thoughts and feelings with other people first. Only when you share something of yourself with others, can you begin making friends. When your friends open a conversation with you, they are usually expecting you to share information in return. That is to say, when you are in a conversation, you’d better express your own thoughts and feelings. If a conversation is one-sided, the person doing all the talking may think the other person is not interested in what he is saying. So, when talking with your friends, be sure that the conversation is a two-way street. One of the most important keys to building a solid (坚固的) friendship with other people is to listen to them — really listen. When your friends tell you something that happened to them or complain about a situation, they are usually not looking for agreement but just want to be heard. So don’t try to change their mind or solve their problems, just let them know that you are listening to them. Respecting your friends is also important to keep your relationships healthy and strong. Looking at your friends while they are talking to you is one way to show your respect, as they will feel that what they are saying is important to you. Unconditional support and encouragement is one of the things which friends have. True friendship means offering a shoulder when they need it, crying with them when they are sad, and laughing with them when they are happy. Only in this way, can the tree of friendship last for a long time.
