解析

小题1:这是一道推理题。根据第一段“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.”可以推断出作者认为Alice的遭遇和他妻子的经历相似,(这个小说)也很大程度反映了作者的生活,所以作者画了这些画。所以画画的目的是表达作者的感受。
小题2:这是一道细节判断题。根据对于Topsy-Turvy和Drawing Workshop的介绍,这两个活动都在27 July 开放,具体时间在12 noon-3 pm有重叠,所以可以在同一天参加。
小题3:这是一道推断题。根据对于Drawing Workshop的介绍,“Find out how Charles Blackman distorted scale in his paintings to create a curious world.”可以推断出这个展览是对于Charles Blackman绘画技巧的一个展示,所以想要理解作者这幅画,应该去参观这个展览,地点在Foyer,Level 3.。
小题4:这是一道推断题。根据对于Wonderful world的描述,“Celebrate the exhibition and Children’s Book Week with special just for the day.” 可知这个展览是关于儿童书籍的展览,时间是24 June,2007。
核心考点
试题【Charles Blackman:Alice in WonderlandAn Exhibition at the National Gallery of Vic】;主要考察你对题材分类等知识点的理解。[详细]
举一反三
The Danish capital is a year-round destination. Here are some of the city"s best annual events.
Roskilde Festival (July)
The Danes love the outdoors and they love rock music; the Roskilde Festival is where they combine these passions for a weekend of drunken celebration. The four-day event is held about 30 minutes from the city completely, which means you can either go in for the full festival experience, or you can travel from the city to the festival each day.
There are also day tickets if you don"t have the power for the whole collection of facts.
Kulturnatten (October)
For something a little more high brow there"s the Night of Culture. For one night only some 300 venues in the city stage theater performances, art exhibitions, concerts and poetry readings.
Father Christmas Congress (July)
One of the more bizarre fixtures in Copenhagen"s calendar, the event is held in July—the slow season for Santas—at the Bakken amusement park, some 20 minutes north of the city. The most interesting of the event is a procession of Santas from all over the world along Strøget. Parents should be prepared for some embarrassed questions from the kids.
Tivoli Gardens (November/December)
These pleasure gardens make for a great day out any time of the year but to see them at their most attractive, visit from mid-November through December, when they are transformed into a fairy tale of lanterns and Christmas markets. There"s also outdoor skating, a Christmas entertainment and the very Danish "Nissekøbing" village, home to more than 100 mechanical fairies.

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.

小题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
小题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.
小题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.
小题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.
小题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.
