  There was one thing that I found rather strange on my first day to work at Monk’s House.The floors in the house were very thin.The bathroom was directly above the kitchen, and when Mrs.Wolf was having her bath before breakfast, I could hear her talking to herself.On and on she went, talked, talked, talked, asking questions and giving herself the answers.I thought there must have been two or three people up there with her.Later Mrs.Woolf explained that Mrs.Woolf always said the sentences out loud what she had written during the night.She needed to know if they sounded right and the bath was a place for trying them out.

  I was not allowed to make coffee at Monk’s House-Mr.and Mrs.Woolf came into the kitchen at eight o’clock every morning to make it.When we carried the breakfast trays to Mrs.Woolf’s room I noticed that there were pencils and paper beside her bed so that when she woke up she could work, and sometimes it seemed as though she had had very little sleep.

  Mrs.Woolf’s bedroom was outside the house in the garden.I used to think how inconvenient it must be to have to go out in the rain to go to bed.Her bedroom had been added on to the back of the house; the door faced the garden and a window at the side opened out on to a field.Because the writing room was small.Mr.Woolf had had a large one built for her at the end of the garden against the church wall.

  I can always remember her coming out of her writing room only for lunch each day.She used to walk down through the thin and very graceful, with large, deep set eyes.She wore long skirts in the fashion of the day, any silk jackets of the same color, which suited her well.I pressed her clothes and did any sewing that was necessary.

  Her cigarettes were made from a special tobacco called My Mixture.Mr.Woolf bought it for her in London, and in the evenings, they used to sit by the fire and make these cigarettes themselves.

第二部分  阅读理解(共25小题;第一节每小题 2 分,第二节每小题1分;满分45分)

第一节 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

Diane Arbus is known for creating intense black and white photographs of very unusual people. She used a special camera that produced square shaped images. One art expert said Diane Arbus turned photography inside out. Instead of looking at her subjects, she made them look at her.

Diane Arbus was born in 1923 to a wealthy family in New York City. After finishing high school at the age of 18, Diane married Allan Arbus. Mr. Arbus worked in the advertising department of her father’s store.

It was Mr. Arbus who gave Diane her first camera. Diane soon decided to take a class with the famous photographer Berenice Abbott. The Arbuses eventually started taking photographs of clothing. These images were used as advertisements for Diane’s father’s store. After the birth of their daughter, Doon, the Arbuses started a business together. Their purpose was to photograph clothing fashions. Diane Arbus was the stylist. She would prepare the hair and faces of the fashion models who wore the clothing being photographed. Allan Arbus took the pictures.

The couple soon had jobs from important fashion magazines such as “Vogue” and “Harper’s Bazaar”. Their work was very successful during the 1950s. They became part of a group of artists that were helping to redefine visual culture. They were breaking with past traditions to create a new look for a new decade, the sixties.

But Diane was not satisfied with her secondary role. She wanted a more active part in making photographs. She wanted to explore her own artistic expression and freedom. To do this, she stopped working with her husband. Then she started taking photography classes at the New School in New York City.

Arbus’ teacher, Lisette Model, influenced her in many ways. She showed Diane how to use a camera like an expert. She also taught Diane to use her art to face her doubts and fears. Miss Model once said that Diane soon started “not listening to me but suddenly listening to herself.”

41. Diane Arbus got her first camera ______.

A. from her father         B. from her husband

C. in a shop                  D. in the advertising department

42. Why did the Arbuses start a business together?

C. To prove themselves.               D. To make friends with more people.

43. The Arbuses ______ in the 1950s according to the passage.

A. were in charge of “Vogue”              B. earned more than other artists

C. were recognized as great artists D. were proud of their achievements
