The trick in food photography is to show the food looking fresh, so many dishes have
stand-ins, just as movie stars do. “When I get my lights and cameras set up, I remove the
stand-in and put in the real thing,” explains Ray Webber, who photographs food for magazine
advertisements. “Sometimes I have to brush the meat with its juices because it may have dried out
a bit. A and when I‘m shooting (拍照) something like tomatoes, I always carry water to spray them with dew just before I shoot.”
Shooting food outdoors has special problems. “I‘m always worrying about flies or worms crawling up
a glass,” Webber explains, “my worry is that someday a dog will come up from behind and run off
with the food.” Once Webber was shooting a piece of cheese outdoors and needed something to make
its color beautiful. Finally he found it: a weed with lovely blue flowers. When the shot appeared,
several people were horrified-the weed was deadly nightshade!
Just before being photographed, some meats and vegetables are _______.
A. fanned
B. dyed
C. frozen
D. made wet
Everybody may have seen the film "Death on the Nile (尼罗河) ," but nobody can imagine that the writer of the story, Agatha Christie, saved a baby in a most unusual way.
In June 1977, a baby girl became seriously ill in Deleville. Doctors there were unable to find out the cause of her illness, so she was sent to a famous hospital in London, where there were many excellent doctors. The baby was so seriously iii that a team of doctors hurried to examine her without any delay. The doctors, too, were puzzled by the baby's illness, and they also became discouraged. Just then a nurse asked to speak to them.
"I think the baby is suffering from thallium (铊) poisoning," said the nurse~ "A few days ago, I read a story 'A Pale Horse' written by Agatha Christie. Someone uses thallium poison, and all the symptoms (症状) are written in the book. They are exactly the same as the baby's."
"You're very good at observing things, "said a doctor, "and you may be right. We'll carry out some tests and find out whether the cause is thallium poisoning or not."
The tests proved that the baby had indeed been poisoned by thallium. Once they knew that cause, the doctors were able to give her correct treatment. The baby soon got well and was sent back to Deleville. A week later it was reported that the poison might have come from an insecticide (杀虫剂) used in Deleville.
The baby was sent to a hospital in London because ______.
A.her parents were living in London then

D.doctors in Deleville were not sure about the cause of her illness

Dear Mr. Mills,
In reply to your letter of April 20, I would【21】to inform(通知) you that there are a【22】of beautiful summer cottages(小别墅) for sale here in Ocean City.
For example, we have a modern two-storey house that is【23】up to date. It is two blocks from the sea and you may find this a disadvantage(不利), but,【24】all, the opening of the summer【25】is only a few weeks from now, and finding a house【26】to the ocean than that is【27】out of the question. The house I'm speaking of has two bedrooms and a porch(门廊) that can be【28】for sleeping. For this reason, I consider it as a very good buy. The plumbing(给水管道) is out of order at the【29】, but this will be repaired, of course. The price is reasonable; as a matter of fact, it is less than is being asked for comparable(同等的) houses elsewhere in town.
As a rule, I【30】 to deal with people face to face in matters of this kind.【31】, I will be out of town next week, and I don't think you should delay in【32】 your decision about this house, since it is sure to be sold quickly. Under the circumstances (环境),【33】, I suggest that you come to see it as【34】 as possible. You can deal with one of my assistants in the office. I am sure you will find the house is【35】 what you expect.
Sincerely yours,
Jason Riggs, Manager
Ocean City Real Estate Company

Come, spend a summer studying in the USA, and get to know people and a land which are incredibly rich in their variety. You may end up on an urban campus or a rural one, at a small school or a large one, in a cool climate or a warm one, in San Francisco or St. Louis. But whatever your experience, it will be first-hand, personal, alive, and unforgettable!
If you spend a summer studying in the USA, you'll have advantages which the tourist never will. Not only will you learn the subject matter of your choice, but you’ll gain an understanding of the American educational system as well. You'll experience the culture of the people and the dynamics of your physical environment. But above all, as a student you'll have a chance to meet Americans. Get to know them, communicate, exchange ideas and opinions, and hopefully form. friendships which will endure beyond the length of your stay in the USA.
The following articles will help you in deciding which summer program to choose, what to bring, and how to adjust to the life in the USA. But the first and most important decision is one which you can make right now. Why not say, "This summer, I'll be studying in the USA!"
According to the passage, our impressions of other countries and their people are usually developed ______.
A.through first-hand experience
