13.THIS is an adapted excerpt(摘录)from Eman Mohammed's speech at TED (Technology,Entertainment and Design),a non-profit conference,in 2014.She is one of the few female photo journalists in the Gaza Strip(加沙地带).
    When I was 19,I started my career as the first female photojournalist in the Gaza Strip,Palestine.My work as a woman photographer was considered a serious insult(侮辱)to local traditions.The male-dominated profession made me feel unwelcome by all possible means.They made it clear that a woman must not do a man's job.Photo agencies in Gaza refused to train me.
    Three of my colleagues went as far as to drive me to an open air strike area where explosions were the only thing I could hear.Dust was flying in the air,and the ground was shaking beneath me.I only realized we weren't there to document the event when the three of them got back into the armored(装甲的)Jeep and drove away,waving and laughing.Leaving me behind in the open air strike zone.
    For a moment,I felt terrified,humiliated,and sorry for myself…
    I started paying closer attention to women's lives in Gaza.Because I am a woman,I could go where my colleagues were forbidden to go.Beyond the obvious pain and struggle,there were healthy amounts of laugher and accomplishments.
    In front of a police compound in Gaza City during the first war in Gaza,an Israeli air raid(袭击)destroyed the compound and broke my nose.For a moment,all I saw was bright white.I thought I had either gone blind or I was in heaven.By the time I managed to open my eyes,I had documented this moment.
    Mohammed Khader is a Palestinian worker who spent two decades in Israel.As his retirement plan,he decided to build a four-floor house.By just the first field operation(军事行动)in his neighborhood,the house had been flattened.Nothing was left but the pigeons he raised and a bathtub.Mohammed put the bathtub on the top of the rubble(瓦砾)and started giving his kids a bobble bath every morning.
     My work is not meant to hide the scars of war,but to show the full unseen stories of Gazans.As a Palestinian female photographer,the journey of struggle,survival and everyday life has inspired me to overcome the community taboo(禁忌)and see a different side of war and its aftermath(灾祸).I became a witness with a choice:to run away or stand still.

分析 本文属于说明文阅读,作者通过这篇文章主要向我们描述了作者不能和她的同事在加沙地带工作,因为当地的传统不允许女人做男人的工作,最终她决定记录战争看不见的场景.

解答 41.B.细节理解题.根据第二段My work as a woman photographer was considered a serious insult(侮辱)to local traditions可知作者不能和她的同事在加沙地带工作,因为当地的传统不允许女人做男人的工作;故选B.
42.A.细节理解题.根据文章In front of a police compound in Gaza City during the first war in Gaza,an Israeli air raid(袭击)destroyed the compound and broke my nose可知在空袭警察大院时,作家的鼻子受伤了;故选A.
43.C.推理判断题.根据倒数第二段Mohammed put the bathtub on the top of the rubble(瓦砾)and started giving his kids a bobble bath every morning可知作者用Mohammed Khader为例表明她可以记录人们的生活;故选C.
44.C.细节理解题.根据最后一段survival and everyday life has inspired me to overcome the community taboo(禁忌)and see a different side of war and its aftermath(灾祸).I became a witness with a choice:to run away or stand still可知作者决定记录战争更看不见的场景;故选C.
45.D.推理判断题.根据最后一段survival and everyday life has inspired me to overcome the community taboo(禁忌)and see a different side of war and its aftermath(灾祸).I became a witness with a choice:to run away or stand still可知最佳标题为做妇女的工作;故选D.

点评 考察学生的细节理解和推理判断能力,做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句,和题干进行比较,再做出正确的选择.在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实,要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断.

Ways to Track Your Personal Health Information on Your Phone
Your smart phone is a powerful and flexible tool for acquiring information related to your health.(36)FThere are other various ways that allow the user several approaches for acquiring health information.
◆(37)BThe sensors(传感器) built in to your phone can automatically capture selected types of health information when they are linked to suitable apps.Thus,the apps take advantage of the phone's stock hardware to deliver specialized health-related functions.(38)CNumerous apps use the phone's GPS to track outdoor activities like running or walking.A handful of apps also use the accelerometer(加速度计) to track indoor activities like treadmill running,which would be impossible to measure with the GPS.
◆Acquire information with a separate health sensor.The smart phone itself is a wonder of modern technology.(39)GHere are a few devices you can connect with your phone to track health information:Activity trackers like the fitbit,blood pressure monitor,heart rhythm monitor.Comprehensive platforms like Apple's Health app make it easy to tie all this information together.
◆Link to your electronic health records.Much of your health information may be stored in electronic health records maintained by your heath care providers.(40)EYou can access your health records through a patient portal(入口) on your phone or download it with the Blue Button function.

A.See doctor with remote-controlled technology.
B.Acquire information with the phone's sensors.
C.A popular example is tracking physical activity.
D.This is the most primitive way to track your health information.
E.Patients are now allowed to access information stored in electronic health records.
F.You can use your phone's native apps or a cloud storage service to track your health information.
G.However,its greatest potential for health tracking may lie in the ability to connect to separate sensors.

3.I am a writer.I spend a great deal of my time thinking about the power of language-the way it can evoke (唤起)an emotion,a visual image,a complex idea,or a simple truth.Language is the tool of my trade.And I use them all-all the Englishes I grew up with.
     Born into a Chinese family that had recently arrived in California,I've been giving more thought to the kind of English my mother speaks.Like others,I have described it to people as"broken"English.But feel embarrassed to say that.It has always bothered me that I can think of no way to describe it other than"broken",as if it were damaged and needed to be fixed,as if it lacked a certain wholeness.I've heard other terms used,"limited English,"for example.But they seem just as bad,as if everything is limited,including people's perceptions(认识)of the limited English speaker.
     I know this for a fact,because when I was growing up,my mother's"limited"English limited my perception of her.I was ashamed of her English.I believed that her English reflected the quality of what she had to say.That is,because she expressed them imperfectly her thoughts were imperfect.And I had plenty of evidence to support me:the fact that people in department stores,at banks,and at restaurants did not take her seriously,did not give her good service,pretended not to understand her,or even acted as if they did not hear her.
     I started writing fiction in 1985.And for reasons I won't get into today,I began to write stories using all the Englishes I grew up with:the English she used with me,which for lack of a better term might be described as"broken",and what I imagine to be her translation of her Chinese,her internal (内在的) language.and for that I sought to preserve the essence,but neither an English nor a Chinese structure:I wanted to catch what language ability tests can never show;her intention,her feelings,the rhythms of her speech and the nature of her thoughts.

41.By saying"Language is the tool of my trade",the author means thatA.
A.she is a writer by profession 
B.she is fascinated by languages
C.she works as a translator
D.she uses English in foreign trade
42.The author used to think of her mother's English asC.
A.impolite
B.amusing
C.imperfect
D.practical 
43.Which of the following is TRUE according to Paragraph 3?B
A.Americans do not understand broken English.
B.The author's mother was not respected sometimes.
C.The author'mother had positive influence on her.
D.Broken English always reflects imperfect thoughts.
44.The author gradually realizes her mother's English isD.
A.well structured
B.in the old style
C.easy to translate
D.rich in meaning 
45.What is the passage mainly about?A
A.The changes of the author's attitude to her mother's English.
B.The limitation of the author's perception of her mother.
C.The author's misunderstanding of"limited"English.
D.The author's experiences of using broken English.
