　　Ⅲ.阅读理解

　　For over 50 years, Charles Townsend was a well­known photographer for the Danville Register & Bee, taking photographs that ranged from heartbreaking scenes from disasters to touching photos of everyday life in the Dan River Region.

　　Townsend actually began working for the newspaper in 1934, when he was only 13 years old, delivering The Danville Register in the morning and The Bee in the afternoon.

　　“The first chance I had to take a photograph for the newspaper occurred after a robbery in 1940，” Townsend said. “I was so excited to get my first photo printed in the paper. Editor Marion Saunders told me to carry my camera with me from then on. That experience changed my life.”

　　By the time he was 25, he had become the head photographer for the two newspapers, and finally for the Danville Register & Bee when the two papers merged(合并) in 1989.

　　Bonnie Ross Cooper remembers Townsend well, especially his ability to discover a good story. “As an editor, I'd call and talk to him in the morning to give Townsend photo tasks，” Cooper said. “He always knew more than the people already at work. His photos really captured the moment and touched many readers.”

　　The newspaper often assigned new reporters to work with Townsend because of his vast circle of contacts and knowledge of the region. He was always willing to help the new hand. Editor Arnold Hendrix said he will never forget Townsend, who helped his budding(开始萌芽的) journalism career. “When I began my work, he was a great help to me. He showed me everything, introduced me to everyone and gave me background on everything，” Hendrix said. “I can never thank him enough. I wish he could live to this day”.

　　Baker, his former colleague, talked about Townsend's humor and popularity. “His jokes often made us laugh. He was such a humorous person that everybody loved him.” Baker said. “Townsend knew everyone in the community and got on well with them. To many folks in the community, when you talked about the Danville Register & Bee, you talked about Townsend. He was the face of the newspaper.”

　　1. When Townsend was 13 years old, he ______.

　　A. sent newspapers

　　B. became a photographer

　　C. published his first photo in the paper

　　D. dropped out of school

　　2. Which of the following words can't be used to describe Charles Townsend?

　　B. Humorous.

　　C. Easy­going.

　　D. Selfish.

　　3. What impresses Bonnie Ross Cooper most when he remembers Townsend?

　　A. His devotion to his career.

　　B. His ability to discover a good story.

　　C. His vast circle of contacts.

　　D. His good knowledge of photography.

　　4. What do you know about Townsend?

　　A. He had a happy childhood.

　　B. He founded the paper The Bee.

　　C. He has now passed away.

　　D. He helped Baker a great deal.

　　5. What is the main idea of the last paragraph?

　　A. Townsend's former colleagues.

　　B. Townsend's humor and popularity.

　　C. Townsend's popularity with the folks.

　　D. Townsend's contributions to the newspapers.Ⅳ.阅读填空(每空不超过三个单词)

　　The X­Factor(英国偶像), Britain's Got Talent(英国达人), American Idol(美国偶像) and Supergirl, TV talent shows are popular all over the world.

　　There are many reasons for that. To start with, the show can make the contestant(选手) famous overnight. Susan Boyle was an ordinary English woman before she appeared on Britain's Got Talent, in which she sang “I Dreamed a Dream”. The video clip(片段) of her performance was viewed more than 50 million times within a few weeks. Second, the show offers a good opportunity to display one's talents. Third, everybody has a fair chance to be involved in the show regardless of the age and background. Even if you can't perform in the show, you can vote for your favorite contestant through cellphones and the Internet. Fourth, the fun and humorous style also appeals to young people. Last but not least, the modern media such as TV and the Internet contribute greatly to its rapid popularity.

　　However, many people express concerns about TV talent shows. They argue that the TV talent show misleads the young people and makes them believe that they can become famous overnight. Some think the show only creates entertainers rather than artists, because many winners have little idea about real music and acting. What's worse, some judges even humiliate(羞辱) and laugh at contestants. One contestant from American Idol committed suicide because she couldn't stand the rejection and humiliation. Even the winners suffer. Susan Boyle suffered a nervous breakdown soon after the show, because she was unable to deal with the pressure.

　　Many countries have realized the problems and taken some steps to regulate the show. The UK requires that contestants younger than 16 not be allowed to participate. China bans TV talent shows to be broadcasted during the prime time. In the USA, some insulting judges are punished.

　　We hope the TV talent show can become healthier and better regulated.

　　.One possible version：

　　Xiao Fang and Xiao Yong are in the same class. Now they are walking home from the school. They both hold a test paper in their hands. Xiao Fang is very happy, because she has got a full mark in the test. She feels as if her mother kissed her on her cheek. However, Xiao Yong looks very sad, as he has failed the test. He feels as though somebody slapped him in his face.

　　From the picture, we can see what an important role encouragement plays in education. The more a student is encouraged, the harder he will work at his lesson. On the contrary, if a student is often discouraged, he is likely to lose interest in what he is learning. He might end up giving up his lessons.

　　I suggest teachers should give students more encouragement. Students' progress often comes from the praise from their teachers.
