第一篇Taking Pictures of the World

Meet Annie Griffiths Belt, a National Geographic photographer. Belt has worked for National Geographic since 1978，and has taken pictures on almost every continent in the world. In fact, Antarctica is the only continent Belt hasn't seen yet.

Belt's photographs are well known for their beauty and high quality. They also reflect very different cultures and regions of the world. Belt has photographed the ancient city of Petra, Jordan, as well as the green landscapes of the Lake District in England. Recently，her pictures appeared in a book about undeveloped natural places in North America.

Everywhere that Belt goes, she takes pictures of people. Belt has found ways to connect with people of all ages and nationalities even when she does not speak their language. " The greatest privilege of my job is being allowed into peopled lives," she has said. "The camera is like a passport, and I am often overwhelmed by1 how quickly people welcome me!"

Knowing how to break the ice has helped to make Belt a successful photographer, but experts say that anyone can learn to connect with new people. When people speak the same language, greetings and small talk can make strangers feel more comfortable with each other. When people don't speak the same language, a smile is very helpful. Having something in common can also help break the ice. For example, Belt has traveled with her two children, so when she takes pictures of children or their parents，they all have that family connection in common. Even bad weather can help people to connect when they are experiencing it together.

Belt has some advice if you are thinking about a career in photography. You can volunteer to take pictures for a local organization that can't afford to hire a professional photographer. You can also take a good, honest look at your best photographs. If you're a real photographer, your photos are good because of your personal and technical skills. Belt also recommends studying and learning from photos taken by professional photographers.

Remember, the next time you look at a beautiful photograph, you might be looking at the work of Annie Griffiths Belt. And the next time you meet a new person, don't be afraid to break the ice. The connection you make could be very rewarding.

答案與題解：

1. B在第二段第三行，作者提到貝爾特曾經(jīng)為英格蘭湖區(qū)的美景拍過(guò)照片，那她自然就去過(guò)英格蘭。因此，這一題題干的表述（貝爾特從沒(méi)去過(guò)英格蘭）明顯是錯(cuò)誤的。

2. A第一段第三行說(shuō)到南極洲是貝爾特唯一沒(méi)親眼見(jiàn)過(guò)的大洲，那么她必然沒(méi)去過(guò)南極洲。 所以這一題題干的表述（貝爾特從沒(méi)去過(guò)南極洲）是正確的。

3. C第一段第一行提到貝爾特從1978年就開(kāi)始為《國(guó)家地理》雜志工作，但是并無(wú)其他信息，所以我們無(wú)從得知在1978年之前，貝爾特是否還為其他雜志工作過(guò)。所以我們既沒(méi)法說(shuō)貝爾特只為《國(guó)家地理》一家雜志工作過(guò)，也沒(méi)法說(shuō)貝爾特在很多家雜志工作過(guò)。因而,我們無(wú)法在文中找到這一題題干所表述的信息（貝爾特在很多家雜志工作過(guò)），答案只能是C。

4. A在第二段第二行，作者提到貝爾特曾經(jīng)在約旦的古城佩特拉進(jìn)行過(guò)拍攝，這迎合題干的表述(佩特拉是一座古老的約旦城市）。所以答案為A。

5. B在第三段第一行第二句話(huà)，作者提到：在語(yǔ)言不通的情況下，貝爾特找到了和不同年齡、不同民族的人溝通的方法。而題干中的表述(貝亦特只能和會(huì)說(shuō)英語(yǔ)的人溝通)和文中的信息完全不符，所以答案為B。

6. A在第四段第七行，作者提到：一起體驗(yàn)壞天氣可以幫助人們?cè)鲞M(jìn)相互間的交流。這和題干的表述(人們?cè)趬奶鞖庀驴梢韵嗷贤?基本一致，所以答案為A。

7. A第五段第一行提到貝爾特為希望從事攝影行業(yè)的人提供了一些建議：當(dāng)個(gè)志愿者為沒(méi)錢(qián)請(qǐng)專(zhuān)業(yè)攝影師的地方機(jī)構(gòu)拍攝照片。這和題干的表述（做一名志愿者是開(kāi)始攝影生涯的一種方式)基本吻合，所以答案為A。
