In the depths of the French Guianese rainforest，there still remain unusual groups of indigenous(土著的) people.Surprisingly，these people live largely by their own laws and their own social customs.And yet，people in this area are in fact French citizens because it has been a colony(殖民地) of the French Republic since 1946.In theory，they should live by the French law.However, their remote locations mean that the French law is often ignored or unknown，thus making them into an interesting area of “lawlessness”in the world.

The lives of these people have finally been recorded thanks to the efforts of a Frenchman from Paris called Gin.Gin spent five months in early 2015 exploring the most remote corners of this area，which sits on the edge of the Amazon-rainforest，with half its population of only 250,000 living in its capital，Cayenne.

“I have a special love for the French Guianese people.I have worked there on and off for almost ten years,”says Gin.“I've been able to keep firm friendships with them.Thus I have been allowed to gain access to their living environment.I don't see it as a lawless land.But rather I see it as an area of freedom.”

“I wanted to show the audience a photographic record touching upon the uncivilized life,”continues Gin.“I prefer to work in black and white，which allows me to show different specific worlds more clearly.”

His black-and-white pictures present a world almost lost in time.These pictures show people seemingly pushed into a world that they were unprepared for.These local citizens now have to balance their traditional self-supporting hunting lifestyle with the lifestyle offered by the modern French Republic，which brings with it not only necessary state welfare，but also alcoholism，betrayal and even suicide.

语篇导读

这是一篇社会类文章。本文介绍了有关法属圭亚那土著人的生活方面的内容。

25.Why does the author feel surprised about the indigenous people in French Guiana?

A.They seldom follow the French law.

B.They often ignore the Guianese law.

C.They are separated from the modern world.

D.They are both Guianese and French citizens.

解析：A 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Surprisingly,these people live largely by their own laws and their own social customs”“In theory,they should live by the French law”可知，作者感到惊讶的是法属圭亚那的土著人有自己的法律和社会风俗，他们很少遵守法国的法律。所以A项正确。

26.Gin introduced the special world of the indigenous Guianese as_______ .

A.a tour guide

B.a geographer

C.a film director

D.a photographer

解析：D 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“I wanted to show the audience a photographic record touching upon the uncivilized life”及最后一段中的“His black and white pictures present a world almost lost in time.These pictures show…”可知，Gin是以一名摄影师的身份介绍圭亚那的。所以D项正确。

27.What is Gin's attitude towards the lives of the indigenous Guianese?

A.Cautious.

B.Doubtful.

C.Uninterested.

D.Appreciative.

解析：D 观点态度题。由第三段中的“I have a special love for the French Guianese people”“I don't see it as a lawless land.But rather I see it as an area of freedom”可知，Gin很欣赏圭亚那土著人的生活方式。所以D项正确。

28.What does the underlined word “it”in the last paragraph refer to?

A.The modern French lifestyle.

B.The self supporting hunting.

C.The uncivilized world.

D.The French Republic.

解析：A 代词指代题。根据最后一段的“These local citizens now have to balance their traditional self-supporting hunting lifestyle with the lifestyle offered by the modern French Republic, which brings with it not only necessary state welfare, but also alcoholism, betrayal and even suicide.”可知,it指代的是上文的“the lifestyle offered by the modern French Republic”。所以A项正确。

Last year I ruined my summer vacation by bringing along a modern

convenience that was too convenient for my own good: the iPad.Instead of looking at nature，I checked my e mail.Instead of paddling an small boat，I followed my Twitter feed (推特简讯).Instead of reading great novels，I stuck to reading four newspapers each morning.I was behaving as if I were still in the office.My body was on vacation but my head wasn't.

So this year I made up my mind to try something different; withdrawal (退出) from the Internet.I knew it wouldn't be easy，since I'm bad at self-control.But I was determined.I started by giving the iPad to my wife.

The cellphone signal at our house was worse than in the past，making my attempts at cheating an experience in frustration (沮丧). I was trapped，forced to go through with my https://www.wendangku.net/doc/0d1290504.html,rgely cutting off from e-mail，Twitter and my favorite newspaper websites，I had few ways to connect to the world except for radio—and how much radio can one listen to，really?I had to do what I had planned to do all along: read books.

This experience has had a happy ending.With determination and the strong support of my wife，I won in my vacation struggle against the Internet，realizing finally that it was I，not the iPad，that was the problem.I knew I had won when we passed a Starbucks and my wife asked if I wanted to stop to use the Wi-Fi.“Don't need it,”I said.

However，as we return to post-vacation life，a harder test begins: Can I continue when I'm back at work?

There are times when the need to know what's being said right now is great.And I have no intention of giving up my convenience completely.But I hope to resist the temptation (诱惑) to check my e mail every five minutes，which leads to checking my Twitter feed and a website or two.

I think a vacation is supposed to help you reset your brain to become more productive.Here I hope this one worked.

语篇导读

假期中，“我”认识到了使用网络对自己的影响，于是决定将iPad 交给妻子，以抵制网络的诱惑。

29.What do we know about the author's last summer vacation？

A.He was determined to enjoy the beautiful view.

B.His iPad ruined his plan of finishing a great novel.

C.He felt satisfied that he had stuck to his usual timetable.

D.He hated himself for acting as if he were working on vacatoin.

解析：D 细节理解题。根据第一段的最后“I was behaving as if I were still in the office.My body was on vacation,but my head wasn't”可知，作者对假期不满意，认为自己就像仍在办公室工作一样，虽然身体在度假，但是精神却没有度假，故D项正确。
