rainforest，there still remain unusual groups of indigenous (土著的) people.surprisingly，these people live largely by their own laws and their own social customs.and yet，people in this area are in fact french citizens because it has been a colony (殖民地) of the french republic since 1946.in theory，they should live by the french law.however，their remote locations mean that the french law is often ignored or unknown，thus making them into an interesting area of “lawlessness” in the world.the lives of these people have finally been recorded thanks to the efforts of a frenchman from paris called gin.gin spent five months in early 2015 exploring the most remote corners of this area，which sits on the edge of the amazonrainforest，with half its population of only 250，000 living in its capital，cayenne.“i have a special love for the french guianese people.i have worked there on and off for almost ten years，”says gin.“ive been able to keep firm friendships with them.thus i have been allowed to gain access to their living environment.i dont see it as a lawless land.but rather i see it as an area of freedom.”“i wanted to show the audience a photographic record touching upon the uncivilized life，”continues gin.“i prefer to work in black and white，which allows me to show different specific worlds more clearly.”his blackandwhite pictures present a world almost lost in time.these pictures show people seemingly pushed into a world that they were unprepared for.these local citizens now have to balance their traditional selfsupporting hunting lifestyle with the lifestyle offered by the modern french republic，which brings with it not only necessary state welfare，but also alcoholism，betrayal and even suicide.【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。在法国圭亚那地区的热带雨林深处居住着一群土著居民。他们虽然是法国公民，却按照自己的方式生活。一位摄影家的照片使这群土著居民进入公众视野，也使他们逐渐受到现代的法国生活方式的影响。7why does the author feel surprised about the indigenous people in french guiana?athey seldom follow the french law.bthey often ignore the guianese law.cthey are separated from the modern world.dthey are both guianese and french citizens.【解析】细节理解题。由题干中的feel surprised定位到第一段中的信息surprisingly，these people live largely by their own laws and their own social customs.，由此可知让作者吃惊的是，这些土著人在很大程度上按照他们自己的法律和社会风俗生活，尽管他们实际上是法国公民，却不遵守法国法律(the french law is often ignored)，故选a项“他们很少遵守法国法律”。b项应改为they often ignore the french law.；c项和d项不是作者感到吃惊的原因。【答案】a8gin introduces the special world of the indigenous guianese as aa tour guide ba geographerca film director da photographer【解析】推理判断题。根据第四段中的show the audience a photographic record以及第五段中的blackandwhite pictures可推知gin是一名摄影师，他通过拍摄的照片让观众了解这群土著居民，故选d项“一名摄影师”。a项“导游”，b项“地理学家”，c项“电影导演”，均与文中所提供的信息不符。【答案】d9what is gins attitude towards the lives of the indigenous guianese?acautious. bdoubtful.cuninterested. dappreciative.【解析】推理判断题。通读第三段可知，gin对这群土著居民有特殊的爱，他们之间有深厚的友谊。gin认为这是一块自由的土地。由这些描述可知gin欣赏这群土著居民的生活方式，故选d项appreciative(欣赏的)。a项cautious “谨慎的”，b项doubtful“怀疑的”，c项uninterested“不感兴趣的”，均与文章内容不符。【答案】d10what does the underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refer to?athe modern french lifestyle.bthe selfsupporting hunting.cthe uncivilized world.dthe french republic.【解析】词义猜测题。解本题的关键是读懂最后一句话。这些当地居民不得不兼顾他们传统的自给自足的狩猎生活方式和法兰西共和国带给他们的现代的生活方式，伴随这种生活方式的不仅仅有必不可少的国家福利，还有酗酒、背叛，甚至自杀。故it指代的是现代的法国的生活方式，a项正确。b项“自给自足的狩猎(生活)”，c项“野蛮世界”，d项“法兰西共和国”，均不符合此处的语境。【答案】a.阅读填句(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)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。easy
