三、阅读理解
  • 17. (2019九上·和平期末) 阅读下面的材料,从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

        The word photography was first used in 1839. However, at that time the subject (被拍对象) had to keep still while a picture of it was taken. Few people had ever tried to take photos of moving subjects. The first man to do so was Eadweard Muybridge, a world-famous photographer. He created the first moving picture.

        When a horse is running, do all four hooves (蹄)ever leave the ground at the same time? That was the bet that a gentleman called Leland Stanford had with some of his friends. Most people believed that a horse always had one hoof on the ground, but Stanford didn't think: so. Because a horse's legs are moving so fast, it's impossible to tell just by looking. Stanford needed a way to record the movement of a running horse. In 1872, Leland Stanford offered Eadweard Muybridge $25,000 to find the answer. Muybridge had no idea if he could successfully set up and perform an experiment to settle (解决) the bet, but he thought he should give it a try.

        In 1878, after years of experiments, Muybridge got what he wanted. He had a sequence (连续) of 12 images (图像), and one of them clearly showed all four of the horse's hooves were off the ground at the same time. In the end Muybridge collected his well-earned $25,000 from Stanford.

        Though Thomas Edison is usually considered as the person who created the first cine-camera (电影摄影机) in 1889, it was the work of Eadweard Muybridge and the bet that led to Edison's invention.

    1. (1) The underlined word "still" most probably means "________" in Chinese.
      A . 安逸的 B . 平衡的 C . 直立的 D . 静止的
    2. (2) Leland Stanford thought that ________.
      A . a horse always had one hoof on the ground while running B . a horse had all 4 hooves off the ground at some point while running C . it was possible for Eadweard Muybridge to make a moving picture D . it was impossible for Eadweard Muybridge to make a moving picture
    3. (3) Muybridge finally found the answer to the bet in ________.
      A . 1839 B . 1872 C . 1878 D . 1887
    4. (4) Muybridge's experiments proved that it was ________ who won the bet.
      A . Stanford B . Stanford's friends. C . Muybridge D . Muybridge's friends
    5. (5) The passage mainly tells us ________.
      A . that Thomas Edison created the first cine-camera B . that Eadweard Muybridge created the first still pictures C . how photography helped people know more about animals D . how Eadweard Muybridge got pictures of movement successfully

    Why Should We Learn Body Language

        In English classes, we spend a large amount of time studying grammar and learning new words. We work hard to improve our reading and listening skills. Few of us, however, pay enough attention to body language. So body language is not important, is it?

        The answer is, "Yes!" As the old saying goes, "Actions speak louder than words." Sometimes, we can communicate things even without a single word. For example, shrug our shoulders (耸肩), and, without a word, we've just said, "I don't know."

        Body language can help us stress what we are saying. It can help us express our true, inner feelings. Moreover, body language can help us find out if someone is lying. Often, people who are lying do not make eye contact (接触). They may turn away or raise their shoulders because they are uncomfortable with the conversation.

        In job interviews, the interviewers can sometimes judge the interviewee before he or she speaks. Body language is important in our personal lives, too. It can show if you really care about your friends. Leaning forward into the conversation, for example, means you are interested in what is being said. Listening without making eye contact means you are not paying attention but are waiting for your turn to speak.

        Scientists have been studying body language for a long time. They say more than 70 percent of our messages are delivered (递送)through body language. Sometimes, body language is more accurate (精准的) than the words we use.

        So it is very important for us to learn body language. By understanding body language, we are less likely to be misunderstood. We will find it easier to get a job. We will also have lasting friendships.

    1. (1) According to the first paragraph, in English classes, people do all of the following EXCEPT ________.
      A . studying grammar B . learning new words C . improving listening skills D . practicing using body language
    2. (2) According to the passage, in which of the following pictures is the woman saying, "I don't know."?
      A . B . C . D .
    3. (3) According to the passage, people who are lying may ________.
      A . learn forward B . make eye contact C . raise their shoulders D . shrug their shoulders
    4. (4) According to the author, body language can help us ________.

      ① get a job        ② lie without anyone knowing

      ③ prevent misunderstandings    ④ improve our English reading skills

      A . ①③ B . ②④ C . ①④ D . ②③
    5. (5) By writing this passage, the writer mainly wanted to ________.
      A . teach readers to understand body language B . tell readers it is important to learn body language C . show readers how to find out if someone is lying D . help readers improve their English reading and listening skills
