    Swedish master medical photographer Lennart Nilsson is a pioneer in medical photography．In association with researchers and with the help of advanced, specially designed equipment, he has documented the inside of man down to the level of a cell with his camera.

    Born in Str??ngn??s, a satellite city of Stockholm, in 1922, Nilsson got his first camera from his father when he was 11 years old．From the early stage, he has been interested in looking at ants and taking photos of them.Throughout the years, he has devoted special attention to capturing the creation of a human being, from conception to birth.

    In 2006 when his photo book Life was published in both Swedish and English, he was invited to give a lecture at the Stockholm bookstore．He vividly described to the public how he took the photos so that the development process of the embryo can be understood better．Finally when he was signing his name in the book, I asked him what made him so passionate about working on this, he stopped writing and thought for a second, “I think it is the respect for life,” Nilsson said.

    Nilsson began his career as a photographic journalist in the middle of the 1940s and published a number of photo-essays in Swedish and foreign magazines, including "Polar Bear Hunting in Spitzbergen" (1947) and Midwife.

     “When I went to the professor to take the embryo photo, I was looking around and then I saw something which was unbelievable, it was a tiny human embryo lies in a very special place, a 10-20 millimeter embryo with hands, arms and eyes, and I got a shock,” Nilsson said.

    Nilsson began experimenting with new photographic techniques in the mid-1950s to report on the world of ants and life in the sea．His revealing macro-studies were published in his book on ants, Myror (1959), and in the Life in the Sea (1959), and in Close to Nature (1984)．In the 1960s special designed, very slim endoscopes (内窥镜))made it possible for him to photograph the blood vessels and the cavities (空洞) of the body with the necessary depth of field and, in 1970, he used a scanning electron microscope for the first time, he was also considered the pioneer for three dimension digital pictures of the body organs.

    After his photographs of human embryo were published, he was encouraged to continue photographing the origins of human being.

    Nilsson is very modest and sincere．At age of nearly 88, he is still cooperating with colleagues in Karolinska Institute where the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine is selected every year.

    “He can forget all the other things when he is working and he is still working diligently,” Mrs Nilsson told People’s Daily Online.

    Why does Nilsson want to document the creation of a human being?

           A．Because he is a pioneer in medical photography.         

           B．Because he has been interested in taking photos.

          C．Because he thinks it a way to show respect for life.

          D．Because he wished to win a Nobel Prize.

    What can we learn from the passage?

          A．Nilsson was the only expert in medical photography.

          B．Nilsson’s camera is specially designed.

          C．Nilsson’s photo book Life is better received than his other books.

          D．Nilsson has always been working alone．

    How many books written by Nilsson are mentioned in this passage?

          A．3．   B．4.      C．5.      D．6.

    Which of the following word can Not be used to describe Nilsson?

          A．Passionate.       B．Devoted.   C．Forgetful. D．Dillgent.

    What can be the title for the passage?

           A．Nilsson, a pioneer medical photographer.     

           B．Nilsson, a pioneer medical publisher

           C．Nilsson, a person of rich experience

           D．Nilsson, a talented photographer

    第II卷（两部分共35分）

    第四部分任务型阅读（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)

    请认真阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入最恰当的单词。

    注意：每空只填1个单词,请将答案写在答题纸上。

    In addition to self-awareness, imagination, and conscience, it is the fourth quality — independent will — that really makes effective self-management possible. It is the ability to make decisions and choices and to act in agreement with them. It is the ability to act rather than to be acted upon, to actively carry out the program we have developed through the other three qualities.

    The human will is an amazing thing. Time after time, it has overcome unbelievable difficulties. The Helen Kellers of this world give dramatic(给人深刻印象的) evidence to the value, the power of the independent will.

    But as we examine this quality in the context of effective self-management, we realize it’s usually not the dramatic, the visible, the once-in-a-lifetime, up-by-the-bootstraps(自立自强的) effort that brings lasting success. This special ability comes from learning how to use this great quality in the decisions we make every day.

    The degree to which we have developed our independent will in our everyday lives is measured by our personal honesty. Honesty is, fundamentally, the value we place on ourselves. It’s our ability to make and keep promises to ourselves, to “walk our talk.”

    Effective management is putting first things first. While leadership decides what “first things” are, it is management that puts them first, day-by-day, moment-by-moment. Management is discipline (training to be self-controlled), carrying it out.

    Discipline obtains from belief—belief in a set of values, belief in an overriding(最主要的) purpose, to a long-term or short term goal that must be carried out.

    In other words, if you are an effective manager of yourself, your discipline comes from within; it is a function of your independent will. You are a follower of your own deep values and their source. And you have the will, the quality to control your feelings and moods rather than depend on others or have your work half done.

    Think about it.   53   , while walking to work, we mark where we are by  54  a certain building, why should we not mark where we are when we pass a familiar, though  55  , person?

    I grew up in a house where the TV was seldom turned on and with one wall in my bedroom entirely lined with bookshelves, most of my childhood was spent on books I could get hold of. In fact, I grew up thinking of reading as natural as breathing and books unbelievably powerful in shaping perspectives (观点) by creating worlds we could step into, take part in and live in.

    With this unshakable belief, I, at fourteen, decided to become a writer. Here too, reading became useful. Every writer starts off knowing that he has something to say, but being unable to find the right ways to say it. He has to find his own voice by reading widely and discovering which parts of the writers he agrees or disagrees with, or agrees with so strongly that it reshapes his own world. He cannot write without loving to read, because only through reading other people’s writing can one discover what works, what doesn’t and, in the end, together with lots of practice, what voice he has.

    Now I am in college, and have come to realize how important it is to read fiction (文学作品)．As a. law student, my reading is in fact limited to subject matter—the volume (量) of what I have to read for classes every week means there is little time to read anything else. Such reading made it all the clearer to me that I live in a very small part in this great place called life. Reading fiction reminds me that there is life beyond my own. It allows me to travel across the high seas and along the Silk Road, all from the comfort of my own armchair, to experience, though secondhand, exciting experiences that I wouldn't necessarily be able to have in my lifetime.

    1.What can be inferred about the author as a child?

    A.  He never watched TV.

    B.  He read what he had to.

    C.  He found reading unbelievable.

    D.  He considered reading part of his life.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             

    2. The underlined word "voice" in the second paragraph most probably means “       ”.

    A.  an idea     

    B.  a sound quality

    C.  a way of writing

    D.  a  world to write about

    3.What effect does reading have on the author?

    A.  It helps him to realize his dream.

    B.  It opens up a wider world for him.

    C.  It makes his college life more interesting.

    D.  It increases his interest in worldwide travel.

    4.Which of the following can be the best title of this text?

    A.  Why do I read?

    B.  How do I read?

    C.  What do I read? 

    D.  When do I read?
