However, the man found that there was no window at all, just a blank wall.The nurses explained that the dead man had been blind.

However, at that time the subject (被拍对象) had to keep still while a picture of it was taken. Few people had ever tried to take photos of moving subjects. The first man to do so was Eadweard Muybridge, a world-famous photographer. He created the first moving picture.When a horse is running, do all four hooves (蹄)ever leave the ground at the same time? That was the bet that a gentleman called Leland Stanford had with some of his friends. Most people believed that a horse always had one hoof on the ground, but Stanford didnt think: so. Because a horses legs are moving so fast, its impossible to tell just by looking. Stanford needed a way to record the movement of a running horse. In 1872, Leland Stanford offered Eadweard Muybridge $25,000 to find the answer. Muybridge had no idea if he could successfully set up and perform an experiment to settle (解决) the bet, but he thought he should give it a try.In 1878, after years of experiments, Muybridge got what he wanted. He had a sequence (连续) of 12 images (图像), and one of them clearly showed all four of the horses hooves were off the ground at the same time. In the end Muybridge collected his well-earned $25,000 from Stanford.Though Thomas Edison is usually considered as the person who created the first cine-camera (电影摄影机) in 1889, it was the work of Eadweard Muybridge and the bet that led to Edisons invention.36. The underlined word “still” most probably means “_” in Chinese.A. 安逸的B. 平衡的C. 直立的D. 静止的37. Leland Stanford thought that _.A. a horse always had one hoof on the ground while runningB. a horse had all 4 hooves off the ground at some point while runningC. it was possible for Eadweard Muybridge to make a moving pictureD. it was impossible for Eadweard Muybridge to make a moving picture38. Muybridge finally found the answer to the bet in _.A. 1839B. 1872C. 1878D. 188739. Muybridges experiments proved that it was _ who won the bet.A. StanfordB. Stanfords friends.C. MuybridgeD. Muybridges friends40. The passage mainly tells us _.A. that Thomas Edison created the first cine-cameraB. that Eadweard Muybridge created the first still picturesC. how photography helped people know more about animalsD. how Eadweard Muybridge got pictures of movement successfully【答案】36. D 37. B 38. C 39. A 40. D【解析】本文主要讲了Eadweard Muybridge是如何成功得到马蹄在移动时的状态的，中间穿插了Stanford与朋友的赌约，最终证明了在移动时马蹄是可以都不在地面的。【36题详解】词义猜测题。根据第一段“The word photography was first used in 1839. However, at that time the subject (被拍对象) had to keep still while a picture of it was taken.”可知，拍照的时候，被拍对象是需要保持一动不动的。故选D。【37题详解】推理判断题。根据“.and one of them clearly showed all four of the horses hooves were off the ground at the same time.”可知，他最后通过另一个人确定，马在奔跑的时候，有一个时间没有一只蹄在地面。故这也是他的想法。故选B。【38题详解】细节理解题。根据倒数第二段第一句话“In 1878, after years of experiments, Muybridge got what he wanted.”可知，在1878年，Muybridge得到了他想要
