Photographers Turn Their Cameras on Pets
In2019photographers Kendrick Brinson and David Walter Banks visited14countries on assignment.When the couple described the adventures21____________they had experienced when
photographing,people invariably asked,“But who takes care of your four cats and dogs?”They joked that the pet sitter(临时看护宠物的人)made a lot of money.
But2020couldn’t have been22____________(different).Due to COVID-19,Brinson and Banks never left the United States.Often,they didn’t even leave their Los Angeles neighborhood.23____________spending long hours in airport curity lines and waiting for the perfect lighting,the pair stayed along with dogs Tux and Tia and cats Rex and Kudzu.“Our pets became emotional therapy animals,and our only friends we could safely hug in a world24____________(strike) by a deadly pandemic(大流行病),”Banks said.
As COVID-19lockdowns swept across the world in March of2020,the change made an especially great impact on
photographers,who are accustomed to25____________(spend)long periods abroad.And so many cameras 26____________(turn)on a domestic subject:the pet.
Rearch suggests that pets have offered emotional support during the pandemic,helping27____________(make)the long days of isolation more bearable,says Emily McCobb,a clinical associate professor at Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine at Tufts Universit
y.In fact,the pandemic has sped up a trend,according to McCobb’s and other scientists’obrvation,28____________the pet is becoming a member of the family.“In the past20to30years,the role of the pet in the family29____________(take)on a whole new role,”says McCobb.“It really hasn’t been that long30____________ the furry child substitutes gained this kind of importance in American society.”
21.考察定语从句，先行词adventures，定语从句中they为主语，先行词adventure为谓语had
experienced的宾语，所以填which/that。
22.考察形容词比较级，couldn’t have been more different这里意为没有比这更不同的了，所以填more
different。
23.考察连词，根据句子意思，23____________spending long hours in airport curity lines and
waiting for the perfect lighting,the pair stayed along with dogs Tux and Tia and cats Rex and Kudzu，表达的是“宁愿……也不愿……”或者“而不是”的含义，所以应该填Instead of/ Rather than。
24.考察非谓语动词，过去分词做后置定语修饰world，意为遭受致命流行病侵袭的世界，所以答案
应该为struck/stricken。
25.考察非谓语动词，are accustomed to doing为固定搭配用法，意为习惯于做某事，to为介词，所
以答案填动名词spending。
26.考察动词的时态语态，句子主语cameras后缺谓语动词，又根据本段时态分析应是一般过去时，
且主语与谓语动词存在被动的关系，所以答案为were turned。
27.考察非谓语动词。help（to）do为固定搭配，意为有助于，句意为研究表明，宠物在流感大流
行期间提供了情感上的支持，有助于人们更好地忍受长时间的隔离，所以答案为(to)make。28.考察名词性从句——同位语从句，做题时可先将“according to McCobb’s and other scientists’
obrvation”这一部分先删去，留下“the pandemic has sped up a trend28____________the pet is becoming a member of the family”，可见从句部分是在说明trend的具体内容，所以填that。29.考察动词的时态，首先主句缺少谓语动词，又根据前文所给时间“In the past20to30years”在
过去的二三十年里以及下文“It really hasn’”可以判断出填现在完成时，所以答案为has taken。
台式电脑怎么连接蓝牙耳机汽车折旧年限
30.考察状语从句——时间状语从句，根据句子意思，自从这些毛茸茸的孩子替代品在美国社会中
获得了如此重要的地位，所以答案为since。
