As a historian who's always searching for the text or the image that makes us re-evaluate the past，I've become preoccupied with looking for photographs that show our Victorian ancestors smiling（what better way to shatter the image of 19th-century prudery？）.I've found quite a few，and - since I started posting them on Twitter - they have been causing quite a stir.People have been surprised to see evidence that Victorians had fun and could，and did，laugh.They are noting that the Victorians suddenly seem to become more human as the hundred-or-so years that separate us fade away through our common experience of laughter.不同单候复你办法社拉工 Of course，I need to concede that my collection of 'Smiling Victorians' makes up only a tiny percentage of the vast catalogue of photographic portraiture created between 1840 and 1900，the majority of which show sitters posing miserably and stiffly in front of painted backdrops，or staring absently into the middle distance.How do we explain this trend？不同单候复你办法社拉工 During the 1840s and 1850s，in the early days of photography，exposure times were notoriously long：the daguerreotype photographic method （producing an image on a silvered copper plate） could take several minutes to complete，resulting in blurred images as sitters shifted position or adjusted their limbs.The thought of holding a fixed grin as the camera performed its magical duties was too much to contemplate，and so a non-committal blank stare became the norm.不同单候复你办法社拉工 But exposure times were much quicker by the 1 880s，and the introduction of the Box Brownie and other portable cameras meant that，though slow by today's digital standards，the exposure was almost instantaneous.Spontaneous smiles were relatively easy to capture by the 1890s，so we must look elsewhere for an explanation of why Victorians still hesitated to smile.不同单候复你办法社拉工 One explanation might be the loss of dignity displayed through a cheesy grin. "Nature gave us lips to conceal our teeth." ran one popular Victorian maxim，alluding to the fact that before the birth of proper dentistry mouths were often in a shocking state of hygiene.A flashing set of healthy and clean，regular "pearly whites" was a rare sight in Victorian society，the preserve of the super- rich（and even then，dental hygiene was not guaranteed）.不同单候复你办法社拉工 A toothy grin（especially when there were gaps or blackened gnashers）lacked class：drunks，tramps and music hall performers might gurn and grin with a smile as wide as Lewis Carroll's gum-exposing Cheshire Cat，but it was not a becoming look for properly bred persons.Even Mark Twain，a man who enjoyed a hearty laugh，said that when it came to photographic portraits there could be "nothing more damning than a silly，foolish smile fixed forever".不同单候复你办法社拉工不同单候复你办法社拉工（1）According to paragraph 1，the author's posts on Twitter ______.不同单候复你办法社拉工A.illustrated the development of Victorian photography.不同单候复你办法社拉工B.highlighted social media's tole in Victorian researches.不同单候复你办法社拉工C.re-evaluated the Victorian's notion of public image.不同单候复你办法社拉工D.transformed people's initial cognition of the Victorians.不同单候复你办法社拉工（2）Mark Twain is quoted to show that the disapproval of smiles in pictures was ______.不同单候复你办法社拉工A.a thought-provoking idea不同单候复你办法社拉工B.a two-edged sword不同单候复你办法社拉工C.a controversial view不同单候复你办法社拉工D.a deep-rooted belief不同单候复你办法社拉工（3）Which of the following questions does the text answer？ ______不同单候复你办法社拉工A.When did the Victorians start to view photograph differently？不同单候复你办法社拉工B.How come most Victorians looked stem and stiff in photographs？不同单候复你办法社拉工C.How can re-assessing pasts reveal the contemporary tendency？不同单候复你办法社拉工D.How did smiling in photograph become a post-Victorian norm？
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Much of the work in today's world is accomplished (完成) in teams. Most people believe the best way to build a great team is to gather a group of the most talented individuals. ___ Companies spend millions hiring top business people. Is their money well spent? ___ They focused on football, basketball and baseball. The results are mixed For football and basketball, adding talented players to a team proves a good method, but only up to the point where 70% of the players are top talent; above that level, the team's performance begins to decline. Interestingly, this trend isn't evident in baseball. where additional individual talent keeps improving the team's performance. To explain this phenomenon, the researchers explored the degree to which a good performance by a team requires its members to coordinate (协调) their actions. ___ In baseball, the performance of individual players is less dependent on teammates. They conclude that when task interdependence is high, team performance will suffer when there is too much talent, while individual talent will have positive effects on team performance when task interdependence is lower. If a basketball star is. for example, trying to gain a high personal point total, he may take a shot himself when it would be better to pass the ball to a teammate, affecting the team's performance. Young children learning to play team sports are often told, "There is no I in TEAM." ___ Another possibility is that when there is a lot of talent on a team, some players may make less effort. Just as in a game of tug-of-war (拔河比赛), whenever a person is added, everyone else pulls the rope with less force. ___. An A-team may require a balance-not just A players, but a few generous B players as well.A. It's not a simple matter to determine the nature of talent. B. Sports team owners spend millions of dollars attracting top talent C. The group interaction and its effect drew the researchers' attention. D. Stars apparently do not follow this basic principle of sportsmanship. E. Several recent studies examined the role of talent in the sports world. F. Building up a dream team is more complex than simply hiring the best talent. G. This task interdependence distinguishes baseball from football and basketball.

The Harry Potter series, written by J.K. Rowling, is perhaps the most popular set of novels of the modern era. With seven books and many successful films to its name, the series has gathered about 15 billion dollars in sales. How did the series become so popular? The reason can be broken down into several areas.The first book in the series was rejected 12 times before it was picked up by Bloomsbury—a small publisher in England. So receiving this contract was Rowling's first step to success. However, getting a book contract does not ensure the success of a book. The story was soon loved by children and adults alike. In light of this, Bloomsbury Publishing published a second version of the books with “adult” (less colorful and more boring) book covers. This made it easier for a full range of ages to enjoy the series.Another factor that worked like a charm was that the publisher and Rowling herself, through the books, conducted midnight releases, promotions, and pre-ordering more readers. Customers who feared that their local bookstore would run out of copies responded by pre-ordering over 700,000 copies before the July 8, 2000 release.What does the underlined word “releases” (Para. 3) mean?A. The activity that frees or expresses energy or emotion.B. The announcement about the book’s publishing information.C. The sales of books that is available only at midnight.
question or statement.Hot pot is a traditional dish in China. It is believed to date back more than 1,000 years to the time of the Jin Dynasty. Hot pot's origins can be found in the dining practices of Mongolian horsemen who rode across the steppe and into northern China. Legend has it that the Mongols used their helmets as pots to simmer (炖) broth (汤底) over open fires, and cooked chunks of meat in the broth.Hot pot cooking seems to have spread to northern China during the Tang Dynasty. In the regional variations developed with different ingredients such as seafood. In the centuries that witnessed the growth of the Song Dynasty, hot pot moved — and changed — further south, with each successive region adapting it to their local ingredients and tastes.The ingredients in a hot pot vary a lot from region to region. Perhaps the most famous hot pot is the Chongqing or Sichuan hot pot. It features a dark red broth chock-full (塞满了的) of spices, chili peppers, and the uniquely mouth-numbing Sichuan peppers. In Beijing and elsewhere in the north, hot pot broth tends to be mild and, compared to its racy southern "cousins", a little light. In the northeast of China, a kind of local sauerkraut (酸菜) is used to add some tang (强烈的味道), making the broth a bit sour. People can choose a version of hot pot according to their taste.1 Hot pot is believed to date back more than 1,000 years to the time of _______.A. the Jin Dynasty B. the Tang DynastyC. the Song Dynasty D. the Yuan Dynasty

The increase in international business and in foreign investment has created a need for executives with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. Americans, however, have not been well trained in either area and, consequently, have not enjoyed the same level of success in negotiation in an international arena as have their foreign counterparts. Negotiating is the process of communicating back and forth for the purpose of reaching an agreement. It involves persuasion and compromise, but in order to participate in either one, the negotiators must understand the ways in which people are persuaded and how compromise is reached within the culture of the negotiation. In many international business negotiations abroad, Americans are perceived as wealthy and impersonal. It often appears to the foreign negotiator that the American represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation that can afford to pay the price without bargaining further. The American negotiator’s role becomes that of an impersonal supplier of information and cash. In studies of American negotiators abroad, several traits have been identified that may serve to confirm this stereotypical perception, while undermining the negotiator’s position. Two traits in particular that cause cross-cultural misunderstanding are directness and impatience on the part of the American negotiator. Furthermore, American negotiators often insist on realizing short-term goals. Foreign negotiators, on the other hand, may value the relationship established between negotiators and may be willing to invest time in it for long-term benefits. In order to solidify the relationship, they may opt for indirect interactions without regard for the time involved in getting to know the other negotiator.
