小題1:這是一道推理題。根據(jù)第一段“The story of Alice ...,was similar to his wife’s experience. It also reflected so much of his own life. All this contributed to the completion of the Alice in Wonderland paintings.”可以推斷出作者認(rèn)為Alice的遭遇和他妻子的經(jīng)歷相似,(這個(gè)小說(shuō))也很大程度反映了作者的生活,所以作者畫(huà)了這些畫(huà)。所以畫(huà)畫(huà)的目的是表達(dá)作者的感受。
小題2:這是一道細(xì)節(jié)判斷題。根據(jù)對(duì)于Topsy-Turvy和Drawing Workshop的介紹,這兩個(gè)活動(dòng)都在27 July 開(kāi)放,具體時(shí)間在12 noon-3 pm有重疊,所以可以在同一天參加。
小題3:這是一道推斷題。根據(jù)對(duì)于Drawing Workshop的介紹,“Find out how Charles Blackman distorted scale in his paintings to create a curious world.”可以推斷出這個(gè)展覽是對(duì)于Charles Blackman繪畫(huà)技巧的一個(gè)展示,所以想要理解作者這幅畫(huà),應(yīng)該去參觀這個(gè)展覽,地點(diǎn)在Foyer,Level 3.。
小題4:這是一道推斷題。根據(jù)對(duì)于Wonderful world的描述,“Celebrate the exhibition and Children’s Book Week with special just for the day.” 可知這個(gè)展覽是關(guān)于兒童書(shū)籍的展覽,時(shí)間是24 June,2007。

Directions: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each paragraph.  There is one extra heading which you do not need.

小題1:
The causes of eating disorders are not clear. There may be genetic or biochemical factors in some cases. There may be psychological problems from early childhood or the present (such as school or family conflicts) that trigger the problem. Often, there is the double pressure to enjoy life through food and yet remain ultra-slim. Society all around us encourages eating and drinking as main ways to enjoy life- To be popular, you are supposed to eat. eat, eat
小題2:
But in real life most people, if they keep consuming like that, just keep pulling on more and more weight They then find themselves in conflict with another dominant pressure in society — to stay slim and trim. Models in ads, even those shown earing fairy foods, are usually physically lit and quite thin. All of these pressures put teens in a terrible situation. The ".solution" that some teens choose is to deny themselves all the time so as to keep temptation away. Bui soon, hunger and food boredom lead to overeating. Over time they develop anorexia or bulirnia.
小題3:
Once an earing disorder has become firmly established, there is no easy cure. Someone who's never suffered anorexia and never known an anorexic might be tempted to think. "It's simple — jusi tell them to eat more!" Unfortunately, it's not thai simple. Even when anorexics have been brought into the hospital and arc receiving physical care, nutritional therapy, and psychiatric care, many don't improve much.
小題4:
Our society's obsession with thinness, together with a constant emphasis on the theme that rich food means pleasure, puts many teens in a difficult situation. Being drawn to overeating on the one hand and self-denial on the other can bring about anorexia or bulimia — or both. Anorexics seem to feel that no matter how much weight they lose, they are still too fat Therefore, it is important for each person in our society to try to maintain a healthy and realistic self-image. Don't compare yourself wiih the models and actors in the media Set your sights more realistically by comparing yourself with family and friends, if anyone.
小題5:
Self-denial is the typical first step toward an caring disorder. Eventually, desires for what you've denied yourself become unbearable, and you react with eiiher a binge or overly fierce self-control. The answer is not of course. 10 eai all the snacks and trcais you fancy. But 10 avoid that first step that leads to overeating, strive for a good and healthy diet Such a diet is based primarily on grain products, fruits, and vegetables, with moderate amounts of meat and dairy products and with small amounts of snacks and desserts. Research demonstrates that mis kind of diet leaves you more alert and energetic.

It's great fun to explore (探索) new places—it feels like an adventure, even when you know you're not the first to have been there. But make sure not to get lost or waste time going round in circles.
● Do the map reading if you're being driven somewhere. It'll be easier if you keep turning the map so it follows the direction you' re traveling in. Keep looking ahead so that you can give the driver lots of warning before having to make a turn, or you'll have to move to the back seat.
● Get a group of friends together and go exploring. You'll need a good map, a compass (指南針), a raincoat, a cell phone to call for help in case you get lost, and a bit of spare cash for emergencies (應(yīng)急現(xiàn)金). Tell someone where you're going before you set out and let them know what time you expect to be back. The test is in not getting lost, not in seeing how fast you can go, so always stick together, waiting for slower friends to catch up.
● See if your school or a club organizes orienteering activities, in which you need a map and a compass to find your way. This can be done as a sport, with teams trying to find the way from A to B (and B to C, etc. ) in the fastest time, or simply as a spare-time activity. Either way, it's not only good fun, but a great way to keep fit.
小題1:Sitting beside the driver, you should ________.
A.direct the driver when necessary

小題3:Orienteering activities can ________.
