Computer connections of the World Wide Web and Internet also use satellites. Many of our TV programs come to US through satellites．Airplane pilots also sometimes use a satellite to help them find their exact location．
We use satellites to send television pictures from one part of the world to another．They are usually 35，880 kilometers above the equator．Sometimes we can see a satellite in the sky and it seems to stay in the same place．This is because it is moving around the world at 11，000 kilometers an hour—exactly the same speed that the earth rotates．A satellite must orbit the Earth with its antennae(天线)facing the earth．Sometimes, it moves away from its orbit，So there are little rockets on it which are used to put the satellite back in the right position．This usually happens about every five or six days．
Space is not empty! Every week, more and more satellites are sent into space to orbit the Earth．A satellite usually works for about 10-12 years．Satellites which are broken are sometimes repaired by astronauts or sometimes brought back to Earth to be repaired．Often，very old or broken satellites are left in space to orbit the Earth for a very long time．This is very serious because some satellites use nuclear power and they can crash into each other．
1.Which of the following is NOT done by satellites according to the passage?（）
A. Sending information for weather forecasts.
B. Taking photographs of the Earth.
C. Sending TV pictures.
D. Providing food for airplane pilots.
2.What’s the speed the Earth rotates at?（）
A. 35,880 kilometers per hour.
B. 335,880 kilometers per hour.
C. 11,000 kilometers per hour.
D. 111,000 kilometers per hour.
3.What does the underlined word “This” in paragraph 3 refer to?（）
A. A satellite.
B. A little rocket.
C. A satellite seems to stay in the same place in the sky.
D. The satellite puts the rockets in the right position.
4.How would the very old and broken satellites be dealt with?（）
A. They will be repaired by astronauts.
B. They will be left in space to orbit the Earth for a very long time.
C. They will be brought back to Earth to be repaired.
D. They will be made to crash into each other.
5.What’s the proper title for this passage?（）
A. he ABC about Satellites
B. Satellites Using Nuclear Power
C. The Speed of Satellites
D. How to Deal With Satellites When They are Old and Broken?

These conflicting ideals arise from uneasiness on the part of both photographers and viewers of photographs toward the aggressive component in "taking" a picture. Accordingly, the ideal of a photographer as observer is attracting because it implicitly denies that picture-taking is an aggressive act. The issue, of course, is not so clear-cut. What photographers do cannot be characterized as simply predatory or as simply, and essentially, benevolent. As a consequence, one ideal of picture-taking or the other is always being rediscovered and championed.
An important result of the coexistence of these two ideals is a recurrent ambivalence toward photography's means. Whatever are the claims that photography might make to be a form. of personal expression just like painting, its originality is closely linked to the power of a machine. The steady growth of these powers has made possible the extraordinary informativeness and imaginative formal beauty of many photographs, like Harold Edgerton's high-speed photographs of a bullet hitting its target or of the swirls and eddies of a tennis stroke. But as cameras become more sophisticated, more automated, some photographers are tempted to disarm themselves or to suggest that they are not really armed, preferring to submit themselves to the limit imposed by pre-modern camera technology because a cruder, less high-powered machine is thought to give more interesting or emotive results, to leave more room for creative accident. For example, it has been virtually a point of honor for many photographers, including Walker Evans and Cartier Bresson, to refuse to use modern equipment. These photographers have come to doubt the value of the camera as an instrument of "fast seeing". Cartier Bresson, in fact, claims that the modern camera may see too fast.
This ambivalence toward photographic means determines trends in taste. The cult of the future (of faster and faster seeing) alternates over time with the wish to return to a purer past when images had a handmade quality. This longing for some primitive state of the photographic enterprise is currently widespread and underlies the present-day enthusiasm for daguerreotypes and the work of forgotten nineteenth-century provincial photographers. Photographers and viewers of photographs, it seems, need periodically to resist their own knowingness.

A．emphasis that each places on the emotional impact of the finished product.
B．degree of technical knowledge that each requires of the photographer.
C．way in which each defines the role of the photographer.
D．extent of the power that each requires of the photographer's equipment.

“Oh, yes,” the old lady said. “I love 'Let's Pretend' game.”
“Good. I'll ask you a question first,” the doctor said. “Then you can tell me one.”
He pretended to think for a few moments. Then he said, “Tell me, what would you do if you won a million dollars in the lottery？” “Oh, that's an easy one,” the old lady said. “I'd give most of it to you, doctor, because you have been so good to me all these years. Doctor!”

第10题
听力原文： At the University of Kansas art museum, investigators tested the effects of different colored walls on two groups of visitors to an exhibit of paintings. For the first group the room was painted white; for the second, dark brown. Movement of each group was followed by an electrical system under the car pet. The experiment revealed that those who entered the dark brown room walked more quickly, covered more area, and spent less time in the room than the people in the white environment. Dark brown stimulated more activity, but the activity ended sooner. Not only the choice of colors but also the general appearance of a room communicates and influences those inside. An other experiment presented subjects with photographs of faces that were to be rated in terms of energy and well-being. Three groups of subjects were used; each was shown the same photos, but each group was in a different kind of room. One group was in an "ugly" room that resembled a messy storeroom. Another group was in an average room a nice office. The third group was in a tastefully designed living room. Results showed that the subjects in the beautiful room tended to give higher ratings to the faces than did those in the ugly room.

A．The group in a messy storeroom.
B．The group in a nice office.
