artificial islands in the world and are under construction in Dubai，in the United Arab Emirates on which major commercial and residential infrastructure will be constructedThey are being developed as tourist，leisure，and residential resorts，and will increase the coastline of the country by 120 kilometresAfter four years of planning and careful consideration of the environmental issues，construction started in 2001Dutch engineers with experience of reclaiming land from the sea were employed in the building of the first two islandsThe site for all three islands is an area of the sea where the water is not very deepSand is taken from the seabed and sprayed into the construction siteAlthough the shallow water facilitates this process，the islands are still very exposed to the currents and tidal movements of the seaRocks are used to hold the sand in place resulting in a large crescent（月状的）structureThis acts as a breakwater and protects the islands from the seaThe first two islands are in the shape of date palm trees and consist of a trunk and 17 fronds，or leaves，coming off the trunkThe first island，named Palm Jumeirah，has three fivestar hotels in the trunk，and luxury homes in the leavesIt is astonishing that when these homes went on sale in 2004，they were all sold within three daysThe second palm Jebel Ali，was started in 2002 and is designed to be an entertainment centreSix marinas（小游艇船坞）are planned，with a water theme park，and home built on stilts（桩柱）in the waterThe Palm Deira is planned to be the largest of the three islands，with a length of 14 km and a width of 85 km，an area larger than the city of ParisIt will consist of residential properties，marinas，shopping malls，sports facilities，and clubsThese will be open to both residents and touristsMore artificial islands，the World Islands，are now being constructed near the Palm JumeirahThey consist of 300 private islands grouped into the shape of the continents of the world and will be used for estates，private homes，community islands，and resortsUnquestionably，these artificial islands are one of the wonders of the modern worldThey will also maintain Dubais status as one of the leading tourist destinations in

high qualityThey also reflect very different cultures and regions of the worldBelt has photographed the ancient city of Petra，Jordan，as well as the green landscapes of the Lake District in EnglandRecently，her pictures appeared in a book about undeveloped natural places in North AmericaEverywhere that Belt goes，she takes pictures of peopleBelt has found ways to connect with people of all ages and nationalities even when she does not speak their language“The greatest privilege of my job is being allowed into peoples lives，” she has said“The camera is like a passport，and I am often overwhelmed（激动得不知所措）by how quickly people welcome me！”Knowing how to break the ice has helped to make Belt a successful photographer，but experts say that anyone can learn to connect with new peopleWhen people speak the same language，greetings and small talk can make strangers feel more comfortable with each otherWhen people dont speak the same language，a smile is very helpfulHaving something in common can also help break the iceFor example，Belt has traveled with her two children，so when she takes pictures of children，they all have that family connection in commonEven bad weather can help people to connect when they are experiencing it togetherBelt has some advice if you are thinking about a career in photographyYou can volunteer to take pictures for a local organization that cant afford to hire a professional photographerYou can also take a good，honest look at your best photographsIf youre a real photographer，your photos are good because of your personal and technical skillsBelt also recommends studying and learning from photos taken by professional photographersRemember，the next time you look at a beautiful photograph，you might be looking at the work of Annie

musician，but you might not be a good readerEach of us is differentPsychologists disagree about what is intelligence and what are talents or personal abilitiesPsychologists have two different views on intelligenceSome believe there is one general intelligenceOthers believe there are many different intelligencesSome psychologists say there is one type of intelligence that can be measured with IQ testsThese psychologists support their view with research that concludes that people who do well on one kind of test for mental ability do well on other testsThey do well on tests using words，numbers or picturesThey do well on individual or group tests，and written or oral testsThose who do poorly on one test，do the same on all testsStudies of the brain show that there is a biological basis for general intelligenceThe brain of intelligence people use less energy during problem solvingThe brain waves of people with higher intelligence show a quicker reactionSome researchers conclude that differences in intelligence result from differences in the speed and effectiveness of information processing by the brainHoward Gardner，a psychologist at the Harvard School of Education，has four childrenHe believes that all children are different and shouldnt be tested by one intelligence testAlthough Gardner believes general intelligence exists，he doesnt think it tells much about the talents of a person outside of formal schoolingHe think that the human mind has different intelligencesThese intelligences allow us to solve the kinds of problems we are presented with in lifeEach of us has different abilities within these intelligencesGardner believes that the purpose of school should be to encourage development of all of our intelligencesGardner says that his theory is based on biologyFor example，when one part of the Brain is injured，other parts of the brain still workPeople who cannot talk because of Brain damage can still singSo，there is not just one intelligence to loseGardner has identified 8 different kinds of intelligence；linguistic，mathematical，spatial，musical，interpersonal，intrapersonal，bodykinesthetic（身体动觉的），and naturalistic36What is the main idea of this passage ?AThe importance of intelligenceBThe development of intelligence testsCHow to understand intelligenceDHow to become intelligent37Which of the following statements is true concerning general intelligence ?APeople doing well on one type of intelligence test do well on other testsBMost intelligent people do well on some intelligence testsCIntelligent people do not do well on group testsDIntelligent people do better on written tests than on oral tests38Gardner believes that _Aall children are alikeBchildren should take one intelligence testCthere is no general intelligenceDchildren have different intelligences39According to Gardner，schools should _Apromote development of all intelligences Btest students IQsCtrain students who do poorly on testsDfocus on finding the most intelligent students40Gardner thinks that his theory has a _Amusical foundationBbiological foundationCintrapersonal foundation Dlinguistic foundation36-40: CADAB第三篇 AlaskaIn 1959 Americans welcomed Alaska into the Union as the 49th state，symbolizing a change of attitude from that held in 1867，when the peninsula（半岛）was purchased from RussiaThen，most Americans had little interest in 1，500，000 square kilometers “of icebergs and polar bears”一beyond Canadas western borders，far from the settled areas of the United StatesIn those sections of the state which lie above the Arctic Circle，Alaska still is a land of icebergs and polar bearsIce masses lie buried in the earthFrom early May until early August，the midnight sun never sets on this flat，treeless region，but the sun cannot melt the icy soil more than twothirds of a meter downAlaska is Americas largest state，but only about 325，000 people live thereAccording to estimates，800，000 hectares of its land area are fit for plowing but only about 640，000 hectares are being cultivatedArctic Alaska has been the home of Eskimos for countless centuriesIt is believed that the Eskimos moved there from Mongolia or Siberia，probably crossing Bering Strait，named for Vitus Bering，the Danish sea captain who discovered Alaska on his voyage for Russia in 1741The Eskimos are the states earliest known inhabitantsRussian fur traders established settlements but，by the time Alaska was sold to the United States，most of the traders had departedIn 1896 gold was discovered near the Klondike River in Canada just across the Alaskan borderThousands of Americans rushed to the region on their way to Klondike；some never returnedAlaska was never completely cut off again，although even today transportation is a major problemThere are only two motor routes from the US mainland，and within the state，every town has its own airfieldPlanes fly passengers，mail and freight to the most distant villagesThe gold that changed life so suddenly for Alaska was soon ended，and although many stories about mining camps have become part of American literature，the gold from Alaskan earth contributed less to economic progress than the fish from Alaskan watersThe fish caught in a single year range in value from $80 million to $90 millionFurbearing animals are plentiful in the forests and streams，and valuable fur seals inhabit the watersAfter fishing，the states chief industry is lumber and the production of wood pulpIn recent years，Alaskas single most important resource has become oilThe state also has large deposits of coal，copper，gold and other minerals41Alaska is an American state thatAlocates within the Arctic CircleBwas known by Americans before 1867Clies to the east of CanadaDwas once owned by Russia42Which of the following is true about Alaska?AThe sun never sets on its land in MayBSome of its land is fit for plowingCIt is a mountainous landDIt has two seasons：spring and winter43What is true about the Eskimos?AThey are the natives of AlaskaBThey moved to Alaska from DenmarkCThey had a long fight with th
