He was born on July 21, 1899. His writing style had a strong influence on 20th-century fiction, while his life of adventure and his public image affected later generations.Hemingway produced most of his works between the mid-1920s and the mid-1950s, and won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1954. He published seven novels, six short story collections, and two non-fiction works. Three novels, four collections of short stories, and three non-fiction works were published after his death.Hemingway was raised in Illinois. After high school he worked for The Kansas City Star for a few months, before leaving for the Italian front to enlist in the World War I ambulance drivers, where, in 1918, he was seriously wounded and returned home. Hemingways experiences in wartime formed the basis for his novel A Farewell to Arms, published in 1929.In 1922, he married Richardson, the first of his four wives. The couple moved to Paris, where he worked as a foreign journalist and fell under the influence of the modernist writers and artists of the 1920s called “Lost Generation”. The Sun Also Rise, Hemingways first novel, was published in 1926, with which he scored his first solid success.Hemingway married Pauline after he divorced Richardson in 1927. However this marriage was also unsuccessful and the couple divorced after Hemingway returned from the Spanish Civil War, where he had been a journalist, and after which he wrote For Whom the Bell Tolls, the harvest of his considerable experience of Spain in war and peace. He married his third wife Gellhorn in 1940. They separated when he met Welsh in London during The Second World War.Shortly after he published The Old Man and the Sea one of his masterpieces, in 1952, Hemingway went to Africa, where he was almost killed in a plane crash that left him in pain or ill-health for much of the rest of his life. Hemingway lived in Florida and Cuba during the 1930s and 1940s, but in 1959 he moved from Cuba to Ketchum, Idaho, where ended his life in the summer of 1961.25.

When it comes to taking selfies, knowing the following tips can directly affect the quality of your final product.The use of light is vital to improving image quality. Lights can help avoid shadows and create soft features on your face, so turn your face toward the main light source. If you want to be creative, play with light angles by turning your body, but make sure the photo is properly exposed and your face is lit from the front or the side. Besides, avoid taking selfies against the main light source or with overhead lighting. Additionally, natural light possesses a warmth that makes you look like youre glowing.When taking selfies, angles also matter a lot. Hold the camera away from your face, and try to take photos both horizontally and vertically. If not, your face might look bigger than usual. Ideally, the universal selfie angle is 45 degrees above your head. But you should study your face at different angles because finding your best angle requires you having seen all of them.One problem with selfies is that most have distracting backgrounds. You can always do more to show others your best side. Try to simplify the background by taking selfies outdoors or in spacious areas. Document yourself engaging in interesting activities-hiking with family members, visiting landmarks, or working out with friends. At least, you can make the photo appealing by getting rid of your outstretched arm or a background thats too busy.You can also download some photo apps that allow you to adjust the lighting and contrast. Some apps offer useful filters, which can change your skin tone and eliminate pimples (粉刺) on your face.29. To get an image of high quality, you need to _.A. be under the light sourceB. be against the main lightC. face the main light sourceD. have the photo fully exposed30. How can you find the angle that suits you most?A. Study your face at different angles.B. Hold the camera far enough from you.C. Keep the camera lower than your face.D. Place the camera 45 degrees above your head.31. Which of the following should be avoided when taking selfies?A. The use of natural light. B. A landmark as a background.C. Changes of the skin tone. D. A busy background.DIts sometimes said that the US is a “melting pot” of different racial groups living together, but a decision last month set fire to the pot.On Nov 24, a local court decided not to charge(控告) Darren Wilson, a 28-year-old white police officer in Ferguson, Missouri, US. Wilson shot dead the 18-year-old unarmed black teenager Michael Brown in Ferguson on Aug 9.By Nov 26, people who were against the decision in 37 US states and Canada had taken to the streets, said a newspaper.Wilson said that Brown had hit him and tried to get his gun. In fear for his life, Wilson shot Brown 12 times and killed him. However, some said that Wilson attacked Brown for breaking traffic laws, and shot him for no good reason.People are wondering whether the same thing would have happened if Brown had been white. The deep racial divide in the US makes the case more than a crime story, said a New York Times article.Its been five decades since legal segregation (种族隔离政策) was banned, but a wide gap remains between black and white Americans. The unemployment gap between them is unchanged in 40 years, while the gaps in wealth, income and educational attainment have widened, according to the newspaper.The case is the latest reminder for some people that the US judicial system doesnt treat black and white people the same, CNN reported.Just days before the decision, a white police officer shot and killed a 12-year-old black child, Tamir Rice. Police said that Tamir had an air gun that looked real, according to CNN.To help with the distrust between police and minority communities (少数民族社区), President Obama said that he would ask Congress for $263 million to buy 50, 000 body-worn cameras for police to record themselves, and improve training to make sure law is obeyed.“For the people who just feel pained because they get a sense that some communities arent treated fairly I understand that, and I want to work with you, and I want to move forward with you,” Obama said on Dec 2.32.Which of the following differences between black and white Americans isnt mentioned in the text?A. incomeB. welfareC. education D. jobs33. We can learn from the text that _.A. only black Americans care about the shootingB. the case is not about a man but about legal segregation.C. if Brown had been white, the same thing would not have happened.D. many American Media pay attention to the case34. President Obamas attitude towards the case can be described as _.A. gentleB. caring C. angry D. hesitant35. We can infer from the text that _.A. the shooting and the decision shock the United StatesB. all American policemen are equipped with body-worn camerasC. all people believe black Americans arent treated fairlyD. the police, Wilson, will be charged with the shooting第二节（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。Dos And Donts Of DonatingGiving up your unused or unwanted things is a great way to make space in your home for the items that you do enjoy on a regular basis. 36 Here are 4 dos and donts of donating your belongings.Do Prepare Your ClothesYouve thoroughly cleaned out your closets and drawers, and have a mountain of clothing waiting to be donated. Before you bag up these pieces, examine each one to ensure that theyre in good condition.
