2.In Chinese we say,"Your handwriting says a lot about you."But in the eyes of South African photographer John Thackwray,someone's bedroom can do just the same thing.
Thackwray,30,first had the idea of taking pictures of people's bedrooms six years ago,because he was curious how young people born in the 1980s and 1990s lived their lives.And he started with his friends'in Paris.
Soon he decided to take this project a little further.Over the past six years,Thackwray has traveled to 55countries and taken pictures of 1,200 bedrooms-from New York,one of the world's busiest and most developed cities,to Russia,Thailand,Iran and the poor neighborhoods in Nairobi,and cast African countries.
From the layout of the rooms and the little items in them,you can not only see how different people's lifestyles and personalities are,but also get an insight into how unequal the world is and how traditions are replaced by new technology.
Now Thackwray has put all his photos into a book named My Room Project.Each photo in the book comes with the name,age and job of its owner,and they are arranged in the order of his travels.But Thackwray got a lot more from the project than the chance to publish a book.He also saw a lot of things,met a lot of people and had many great experiences.
"I was impressed by the spirituality in India,the friendliness of the Russian people and the craziness of the Japanese lifestyle,"Thackwray told The Huffington Post.

28.What does the underlined part in the first paragraph mean?C
A.one's bedroom says much about his handwriting.
B.one's bedroom and handwriting are the same thing.
C.one's bedroom says much about his personality.
D.people do the same the thing in their bedrooms.
29.Which of the following information about John Thackwray is true?B
A.The pictures Thackwray has taken are more from developed countries than developing countries.
B.The idea of taking bedroom pictures occurred to Thackwray when he was 24.
C.Thackwray began the project with taking the pictures of his own bedroom.
D.The photos in the book My Room Project are put in the order of time.
30.What does the word"insight"in the fourth paragraph mean?B
A.achievement    B.understanding    C.chance      D.curiosity
31.Which of the followings will be the suitable title for the text?D
A.Photos in bedrooms 
B.Handwriting and photos
C.Impressive six years
D.Photos telling stories.

31.D 主旨大意题,根据文章大意,主要讲述了Thackwray在24岁时有了一个给人们的卧室照相的主意,去过55个国家拍摄了1200间卧室的照片,看了很多东西,认识了很多人,有了很多很棒的经历.又根据:"you can not only see how different people's lifestyles and personalities are,but also get an insight into how unequal the world is and how traditions are replaced by new technology"由此可见,Thackwray拍的照片蕴含很多故事,所以这篇文章的标题应该是有故事的照片比较合适,故选D.
