You surely want to take a good school yearbook photo, for you only get to do it once, and it’s what people remember you by for the whole school year.Learn how to look good and look natural in your yearbook photo with these simple tips.

1.Practice smiling in a mirror.It sounds crazy, but figuring out how to make a natural looking smile for the camera does need a little preparation.Don’t be shy! Just imagine you are in front of a camera —hold your head high, look straight into the mirror and smile.Keep practicing until you find out your most attractive smiling face.

2.Choose your color wisely.In yearbook photos, lots of people look good in darker colors because they draw attention to the face.Generally, white often isn’t the best choice because it can make your skin look a bit gray, especially if you’re pale.Besides, stay away from super(超級(jí)的)-bright colors ( bright yellow, bright blue) unless you’re really sure they make you look perfect.

3.Avoid unnecessary details.Busy patterns draw attention to themselves in yearbook photos, not to your face and smile.Save them for your everyday fashion experiments.Besides, have your clothes prepared for the day when the yearbook photo is taken.The last thing you want to do is pick out the perfect thing to wear, only to find that it’s in the laundry.

4.Avoid big changes to your appearance.Big changes may not turn out the way you hope.Leave some time to do your hair, such as combing(梳頭) it up right before the yearbook photo is taken.Don’t overdo it, since you want your hair to stay in one place and your face to draw all the attention, but go for the "less is more" approach.

1.The best title of this passage is ______.

A. How to Make Yourself Look Good

B. How to Do When Taking a School Photo

C. How to Get Ready for Your School Photo-taking

D. How to Make a Good School Photo Book

2.A bright yellow shirt is not a good choice for taking photos because _______.

A. it reflects light with the brightness

B. it makes people look gray and pale

C. it draws more attention than the face

D. it suits nobody in front of a camera

3.The underlined part "less is more" in the last paragraph means _______.

A. common hair style is more attractive than the over-done

B. simple hair style makes your face more attractive

C. spending less time on hair makes you look more attractive

D. combing the hair up right costs less time but means more

4.During the preparation for photo-taking ______.

A. a camera is needed

B. clothes should be in the laundry

C. fashion should be perfectly showed

D. big changes are not needed

17.Maybe you don’t think animals have certain mental powers which human beings do not have.But the truth is that some of them have instincts,and besides this,I am sure they can feel certain things we humans cannot.A personal experience showed me this.

Some years ago,I had a dog named Howard. From the time when he was a puppy,he was timid,so we named him Howard,sounding like “coward”!He was especially afraid of thunderstorms.At the first flash of lightning or crash of thunder,he would run whining into his house and hide under a table.

I often went for a walk with Howard. Once,as we were walking along a road,it began to rain.I quickly ran to a bus stop for shelter.The bus stop had a roof supported by metal poles.Soon after I had got there,Howard caught my trousers in his teeth and tried to pull me away.At first I was puzzled and a little angry at his behavior.But I decided to humor him and walked away from the shelter into the rain and started to go home.

When I was about two hundred metres from the shelter,there came a flash of lightning and soon after,there was thunder which nearly deafened me.Howard stopped walking and began whining.Thinking he was afraid,I bent to pick him up.As I straightened up,I glanced at the bus shelter we had just left.I was shocked to see that two of the poles were bent and the roof was lying on the ground,broken.The shelter had been struck by the bolt of lightning!

Finally, I entered the university.Because of my careful savings, I did not have to work during the school year. Then, summer came and it was time to work harder than ever. I continued working as a waitress at night, instructed tennis camps several mornings a week and worked as a secretary for a few hours in the afternoons. I even decided to take a class at a community college. This class at the community college saved me $650. It was an extremely tiring summer and made me anxious to return to my relatively easy life at the university.

During my second and third years of undergraduate schooling, I decided to work about five hours per week in the campus admissions office answering phones. This provided a little spending money and kept me from drawing my savings out. The overall situation looked hopeful as I approached my senior year as long as I could make as much money as I had the previous summer. I wanted to go to Israel to study for 3 weeks, but I hesitated in making this decision because it would cost me $1,600 more to get the credits in Israel. About two weeks later my Mom called to tell me that I had $1,600 in the bank that I had forgotten about! One of my concerns about this trip was not only the cost, but the loss of time to make money; however, I made as much that summer in the ten weeks when I was at home as I had made during the fourteen weeks when I was at home the summer before. The way everything worked together to make this trip possible was one of the most exciting things that have ever happened to me.

This experience has shaped me in many important ways. The first thing that I learned was the importance of a strong work ethic. Working long hours did a lot to develop my character and helped me learn the value of a dollar. It also made me learn how to search for creative ways to settle difficult situations.

1.Where did the writer probably work part-time before attending the university?

A. In the tennis camps B. In a restaurant

C. In a company D. In the admissions office

2.The writer took a class at a community college mainly because_____.

A. summer time was tiring

3.The writer’s concern about the trip to Israel was that _____.

A. her mother would not give her approval

B. she would fail to get credits in Israel

C. $1,600 couldn’t be drawn out in time

D. a summer job would be lost

4.The passage is mainly about how the writer _____.

A. was shaped by working part-time through college

B. managed to make full use of her vacation

C. was forced to support herself by her mother

D. made money on the college campus
