题文
阅读理解。 Photographs are everywhere. They decorate (装饰) the walls ofhomes and are used in stores for sales of different goods. The news
is filled with pictures of fires, floods, and special events. Photos record
the beauties of nature.They can also bring things close that are
far away. Through photos, people can see wild animals, cities in foreign
lands, and even the stars in outer space. Photos also tell stories.
Reporting the news through photos is called photojournalism.
At times photojournalists tell their stories through a single picture.
At other times, they use a group of pictures to tell a story. Each picture
is like a chapter in a book, which can do more than record the
facts. It can also be a strong force for social change.
Jacob Riis was among the first photojoumalists. He took pictures
of parts of New York City where the poor lived. Riis believed
that poverty(贫穷 )caused crime, and he used photos to help him
prove his point. A few years later,the photos of small children working
in factories by Lewis Hine shocked the public. Hine's pictures
helped bring about laws to protect such children.
Hundreds of pictures may have to be taken in order to get one
or two really good photos. It takes science to have the photo come
out clearly and art to make a photo that has a good design and expresses
feeling. Photojournalists make an actual record of what they
see. A photo, however, can be both a work of art and an actual record.
It can record an important event as a beautiful or exciting picture.
As historical and artistic documents (文献), photos can become
more important over time. Today photojournalists still have
their pictures appear in newspapers and magazines. They also publish
(发表) them in books and on the Internet.1. The underlined word"They" in the first paragraph refers to __. A. beauties

考点
据考高分专家说，试题“阅读理解。 Phot.....”主要考查你对 [日常生活类阅读 ]考点的理解。日常生活类阅读
日常生活类阅读的概念：
日常生活这一话题主要涉及人们衣食住行等方面的活动。这一话题的选材主要针对人们日常的工作，生活以及学习情况。做这一类题时，最主要的是要把握好人物的活动内容，时间和地点。
日常生活类阅读题答题技巧：
【题型说明】
该类文章内容涉及到人们的言谈举止、生活习惯、饮食起居、服饰仪表、恋爱婚姻、消遣娱乐、节日起源、家庭生活等。文章篇幅短小，追根溯源，探索各项风俗的历史渊源，内容有趣。命题也以送分题为主，如事实细节题、语义转换题、词义猜测题和简单推理判断题等。虽然这类文章读起来感觉轻松，试题做起来比较顺手，但绝不能掉以轻心。因为稍不留神，就会丢分。
【备考提醒】
为了保证较高准确率，建议同学们做好以下几点：
1、保持正常的考试心态。笔者在教学中发现，越是容易的试题，同学们越是容易失分。为什么呢？因为在这种情况下，同学们极易产生麻痹思想，认为题目好做，就不引起高度重视，于是思维不发散、不周密。而命题人就是利用同学们的这一弱点，设计陷阱题。所以，无论试题难易与否，我们都要保持正常的考试心态。试题容易，不欣喜；试题难，不悲观。
2、根据前面讲到的方法，认认真真、细细心心做好事实细节题。
3、做好语义转换题。这类题是根据英语中一词多义和某些词语在文中能表达一定的修辞意义的原则而设计的。要求同学们解释某生词的含义，确定多义词或短语在文中的意思，确认文中的某个代词所指代的对象，或者对英语中特有的表达、格言、谚语进行解释。这种题要求同学们一定要根据上下文猜测词义或理解句子，切不可望文生义。
4、做好简单推理判断题。简单推理判断题要以表面文字为前提，以具体事实为依据进行推理，做出判断。这种推理方式比较直接，只要弄清事实，即可结合常识推断出合理的结论。
