Though digital restoration is a painstaking process, mending irreplaceable family pictures means the world to victims like Emily Lancaster, 71, who took out piles of ruined photo albums after Katrina, never thinking the mess could be saved. But she just couldn39。 When her editor, Dave Ellis, saw the photo of the couple, he suggested they go back and restore damaged photos for even more people. So in January 2006, with paid time off from the paper, the two set up shop in Pass Christian. After posting a notice in the munity newsletter, Rebecca and Dave received 500 photos in four days. For each, the pair took a new digital picture, then used hightech software to erase water spots and restore colors.

The expectations of her mother (who raised her) were openended. It was the freedom of this lifestyle that drove her to see what she could do.s no surprise, then, that when she moved to New York to join a theatre pany, she found herself restricted. The existing dancing style, their way of operating—all of this seemed to her the work of a misguided past. Duncan was very direct about what she wanted, confidently telling people she had a different vision of dance that she was going to spread in the world. This, naturally, led to ridicule and laughs early on, but as she built up her work, these instances became less frequent. Today, she is remembered as The Mother of Dance, with much of the modern art owing its expressive style to her influence. Inspired by the ancient Greeks, she brought the style to life. But Duncan was different. Not only was she already talented enough to earn money even at that age, but she also had a rare kind of confidence that helped her treat troubles as fuel —something to elevate the fire that is already burning inside of her. It39。 In her autobiography (自傳), one of the things Duncan frequently refers to as the basis of her expressive spirit is the fact that she had a childhood where she wasn39。 Growing up, before she left school, she was told one of two things: that she was either pletely useless or that she was a genius. There was nothing in between. Even when she started working, people either bowed to her or they basically ignored her. But there wasn39。 There is an old quotation if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid. And it captures an important truth. At school, Isadora Duncan was a failure. In the dance hall, she gave form to brilliance.(1)What does the underlined phrase treat troubles as fuel mean? used troubles to push her forward towards her dream. was good at burning away everyday troubles. turned Duncan into a confident girl. lit the fire of dancing in Duncan.(2)Which of the following is TRUE about Duncan? experience in New York was the foundation of her career. teaching job when she was little destroyed her confidence. dancing style was not very well received at the beginning. mother set higher expectation on her than she could bear.(3)What does the author try to tell the readers in the last paragraph? is useless climbing a tree to catch fish. is a genius in his own way. e from human stupidity. can impact students greatly.(4)What is this passage mainly about? Duncan39。s early experiences and the reasons for her success.39。根據(jù)第二段中的“Not only was she already talented enough to earn money even at that age, but she also had a rare kind of confidence”即使在那個年齡,她也有足夠的天賦去掙錢,而且她還有一種罕見的自信;以及“something to elevate the fire that is already burning inside of her ”能讓她心中燃燒的火焰更旺,可推測出劃線部分的意思應為“用困難推動她向夢想前進”。很自然,這在一開始就引起了人們的嘲笑和大笑,但隨著她的工作越來越多,這樣的事情就不那么頻繁了。根據(jù)最后一段中的“if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.”如果你以爬樹的能力來判斷一條魚,它終其一生都會認為自己是愚蠢的。由此可推斷出,作者在最后一段想要告訴我們每個人都是獨特的天才。鄧肯十歲時輟學去教別人跳舞,文章主要介紹了她的經(jīng)歷以及所取得的成功。ve lost.
