Pictures of nature and natural scenery tell people that you are driven to succeed and use the pictures to relax and remove the pressure (压力) in your life.Cityscapes，pictures of cities or towns，show that you enjoy travel and adventure.Most people with cityscapes as their wallpaper are optimistic (乐观的)， happy people who feel even better thinking about the places theyve visited or want to visit. Pictures of animals show that you are optimistic and kindhearted.You are often happy and you enjoy life and act young.Cartoons (漫画) or drawings show that you are a multitasker，someone who does many things at once.You have many responsibilities，but you deal with them well.Thats one reason you like having something to smile about when you look at your computer wallpaper. Then，what does plain blue wallpaper tell us about a person？According to Dawson，a person with plain blue wallpaper probably values their privacy and keeps work from becoming too personal. 语篇解读 本文是议论文。研究表明，电脑的桌面壁纸可以反映一个人的性格。 29A prize Photo as wallpaper suggests someone_.

Apictures of nature and natural scenery Bpictures showing their past successes Ccity views or pictures of animals Dphotos of staying with friends 12 解析： 细节理解题。根据第三段中的 Most people with cityscapes as their wallpaper are optimistic 和第四段中的 Pictures of animals show that you are optimistic 可知，积极乐观的人往往会将城市风景或动物的图片用作电脑的桌面壁纸。 答案： C 31What can be the best title for the text? AWhere to Look for Your Computer Wallpaper BComputer Wallpaper Shows Your Personality CHow to Place Wallpaper on Your Computer DComputer Wallpaper Interests Everyone 解析： 标题归纳题。文章第一段为主题段，其中的 the wallpaper on your computer can tell people a lot about you 点明文章主旨，即：电脑的桌面壁纸可以反 映一个人的个性，故 B 项作标题贴切。 答案： B D Argentina (阿根廷 ) lies in the South America.There are many festivals in Argentina during the year.Therefore，you can enjoy the different interesting festivals when traveling there.First of all，we should talk about the Tango (探 戈舞) Festival in Argentina，which is held in the capital of this countryBuenos Aires，from February to March.You ought to know that Argentina is the home of tango，so Argentineans admire this dance very much.Even if you cannot dance perfectly， you should join the people and try to perform this dance.
