It es from the Greek words that mean to write with light. But photography could only give people static pictures. So scientists were trying hard to find ways to make pictures that can move. They made lots of experiments, but failed again and again. It was Eadweard Muybridge who finally succeeded. He was the first photographer to try this successfully. But how did he make it? It was an interesting story. Back in 1872, people didn39。t know exactly（確切地） whether all four of a horse39。s hooves（蹄） left the ground at the same time when it was running. A gentleman called Leland Stanford made a bet with his friend about it. Most people believed that a horse always had one hoof on the ground, or it would fall over. But Stanford didn39。t think so. At that time, it was hard to know who could win the bet, because a horse39。s legs move so fast that it is impossible to tell just by looking. So they needed a way to record the movement of a running horse. Then Stanford offered $ 25,000 to the famous photographer, Muybridge, to help find the answer. In the beginning, Muybridge failed to get clear images, but he didn39。t give up. He continued to improve his cameras. In 1878, after many experiments, he managed to get a sequence（連續(xù)） of 12 photos. One of them clearly showed that all four of the horse39。s hooves were off the ground at the same time. And when the photos moved fast, people could see a horse running. Though Edison is usually considered as the person who created the first movie in 1889, it was the work of Eadweard Muybridge and the bet that led to Edison39。s invention.（1）The underlined word static in Paragraph 1 most probably means . A.prettyB.darkC.movingD.still（2）What did Leland Stanford make a bet with his friend about? A.Whose horse ran faster.B.Whether a horse would fall over while running.C.Whether it was possible for scientists to make moving pictures.D.Whether a horse39。s hooves all left the ground at the same time while running.（3）Muybridge finally found the exact answer to the bet in . A.1839B.1872C.1878D.1889（4）The passage mainly tells us . A.that Thomas Edison created the first movieB.that Eadweard Muybridge created the first static picturesC.how photography helped people know more about animalsD.how Eadweard Muybridge got pictures of motion（移動） successfully【答案】 （1）D（2）D（3）C（4）D 【解析】【分析】大意：文章主要介紹了 Eadweard Muybridge拍到移動的照片的故事。 （1）詞義猜測題。根據(jù)下文 So scientists were trying hard to find ways to make pictures that can move. 所以科學(xué)家很努力地嘗試找到讓照片動起來的方法，可知以前的照片是靜止的，static意為still“靜止的”。故選D。 （2）細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段 Back in 1872, people didn39。t know exactly（確切地） whether all four of a horse39。s hooves（蹄） left the ground at the same time when it was running. 可知， Leland Stanford和朋友打賭馬在奔跑的時候是不是四只馬蹄都離地。故選D。 （3）細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段 In 1878, after many experiments, he managed to get a sequence（連續(xù)） of 12 photos. 可知，直到1878年， Muybridge ，才設(shè)法拍到連續(xù)的12張照片。故選C。 （4）主旨大意題。通讀全文可知，文章主要介紹了 Eadweard Muybridge拍到移動的照片的故事。故選D。 【點評】考查閱讀理解，首先快速瀏覽、分析問題，抓住關(guān)鍵詞；其次帶著問題通讀全文，了解文章大意，找到依據(jù)，確定答案；最后再檢查一遍，確保答案正確。7．閱讀理解 Australia at last!
