What should you do if you want to have a nice photo taken? Whether it’s work or fun, the most important thing is lighting. If you get bad lighting, you will look bad, too. Know where the light is. You don’t want it below you or above you, you want it to shine directly at you.
The key thing is no shadow（阴影）. If you are being photographed outside, do it in the morning, or wait till the 2 o’clock shadow has passed. Also don’t let pictures in the magazines stress you out – all the pictures are taken by great photographers. And all the faces have had pimples (丘疹，粉刺) taken out by computers.
Tip your head and learn what angles (角度) work with your face. Everyone is different. So you have to learn what suits you. You can practice in Photo Booth for as long as it is your turn, to learn what angles suit your face. Tip your neck to make it look longer, make eye contact with the camera. No one can look bad if they smile.
For long legs, point one leg into center of the frame and get the photographer to shoot looking up your body.
For just leg shots, lie upside down and raise legs in the air for the best angle. And your legs will look thinner and be in better shape.
Keep shoulders back.
Always have mouth slightly open, enough to put a penny between your lips, as this will make your lips look fuller.
Lower your eyes and then look up just as shutter (快门) is clicked for full eyes.
Try to catch every perfect photogenic moment!

Water rides — Something that really attracts you!
The water rides are the most popular rides. 1.__ The boat slides down very fast into the water! You can buy your ticket before you go to the theme park. Then you do not have to stand in a long line. 2. _ If more than 10 people go to the theme park together, it costs less. There is a ticket machine beside each ride. You can stand in line for your turn. Or you can take a ticket that gives a time you can go on that ride. Then you can do something else while you are waiting.
3.__ This is because when you are scared, your knuckles become white! It is a strange idea to pay more money to be scared, but many people do that because they want to enjoy the excitement of the rides! Sometimes they laugh and scream! At the theme parks, there are special rides for young children. Of course, the children’s rides are not fast or high or scary. 4._ The children are safe when they sit inside the teacups and the ride goes around very slowly.
Sometimes there are animals like rabbits and sheep for children to see at a theme park. So there are lots to do and see. You will sleep very well after you have been to a theme park for the day! 5.__ Or would you be too scared? Do you think that your mother and father would enjoy this ride?
A．You can go to the rides without waiting! B．You can travel in a boat made of wood. C．Would you like to go on this white knuckle ride? D．The most exciting rides are called “white knuckle rides”. E．One famous ride for children looks like a lot of teacups! |
No one else knew about the extra (额外的) club in Zach Nash's golf bag. It belonged to a friend, and Zach forgot it was there as he played his way to win in a junior tournament (锦标赛) this summer in Wisconsin, US.
The 14-year-old accepted his medal, and celebrated with grandparents who had come from a long way to watch. But when he stopped by his country club to share the news, a professional player noticed something wrong. "Count your clubs," he told the teenager.
Fifteen—one more than allowed. Zach's eyes filled with tears.
If Zach had just won a basketball or a soccer game and someone had discovered an offence (违反) after the win, it would not have mattered.
Bending the rules has become acceptable, if not encouraged, in many sports. It is nothing unusual for soccer players to make a turtle dive (假摔) in the hope of breaking rules.
Golf is different. In a win at all costs world, the game holds itself to a higher standard.
Golf isn't a game where referees (裁判) watch closely. In golf tournaments, dozens of competitors are spread across acres of land, so officials cannot hope to see each shot. Competitors call punishments on themselves.
Players feel the weight of history. Golf began at least the 15th century, but it became popular as a pastime for the wealthy who seemed to always have strict rules of behavior, even when it came to shooting at each other in rights.
"It was a sport for gentlemen, not laborers, and gentlemen did not care about winning. They cared about doing the right thing," said Robert Simon, a golf coach at Hamilton College in New York.
Honesty became a symbol of honor. When one of the game's early stars, Bobby Jones, was praised for calling a penalty on himself at the 1925 US Open. He replied, "You might as well praise a man for not robbing a bank."
So even the error had no effect on Zach's final score—he never used the extra club, the teenager packed up his medal and dropped it in the mail. "But this was golf, and rules are rules. I just knew what I had to do," he said.
Then came another tournament. Before teeing off, Zach counted his clubs four times.
1.Zach Nash returned the medal he won in the junior tournament because________.
A．he was caught cheating by a player
B．he decided to follow the rules of golf
C．he used another player's club by mistake
D．he made a mistake counting his final score
2.Which of the following statements about golf is TRUE according to the passage?
A．In golf, honor comes before win.
B．Early golf players didn't care about the rules.
C．Golf players usually do whatever it takes to win.
D．Golf referees watch each shot and call punishments.
3.The underlined phrase "teeing off" in the last paragraph probably means "____ ".
A．getting started B．getting caught
C．leaving D．winning
4.What is probably the best title of the passage?
A．Zach's medal. B．The history of golf.
C．Honesty counts in golf. D．Golf is rich men's game.
