Of course, I need to concede that my collection of ‘Smiling Victorians’ makes up only a tiny percentage of the vast catalogue of photographic portraiture created between 1840 and 1900, ... How do we explain this trend?
During the 1840s and 1850s, in the early days of photography, exposure times were notoriously long: the daguerreotype photographic method (producing an image on a silvered copper plate) could take several minutes to complete, .., and so a non-committal blank stare became the norm.
But exposure times were much quicker by the 1880s, and the introduction of the Box Brownie and other portable cameras meant that, though slow by today’s digital standards, the exposure was almost instantaneous. Spontaneous smiles were relatively easy to capture by the 1890s, so we must look elsewhere for an explanation of why Victorians still hesitated to smile.
One explanation might be the loss of dignity displayed through a cheesy grin. “Nature gave us lips to conceal our teeth,” ran one popular Victorian saying, alluding to the fact that before the birth of proper dentistry, mouths were often in a shocking state of hygiene. A flashing set of healthy and clean, regular ‘pearly whites’ was a rare sight in Victorian society, the preserve of the super-rich (and even then, dental hygiene was not guaranteed).
A toothy grin (especially when there were gaps or blackened teeth) lacked class: drunks, tramps and music hall performers might gurn and grin with a smile as wide as Lewis Carroll’s gum-exposing Cheshire Cat, but it was not a becoming look for properly bred persons. Even Mark Twain, a man who enjoyed a hearty laugh, said that when it came to photographic portraits there could be “nothing more damning than a silly, foolish smile fixed forever”。

34. Mark Twain is quoted to show that the disapproval of smiles in pictures was ______.
A. a deep-rooted belief

35. Which of the following questions does the text answer?
A. Why did most Victorians look stern in photographs?
B. Why did the Victorians start to view photographs?
C. What made photography develop slowly in the Victorian period?
D. How did smiling in photographs become a post-Victorian norm?
31. 【答案】A(changed people’s impression of the Victorians)
【解析】本題為細節題。根據題干關鍵詞Paragraph 1和the author’s posts on Twitter定位到第一段②句：I’ve found quite a few, and—since I started posting them on Twitter—they have been causing quite a stir。③句進一步解釋stir，即People have been surprised to see evidence that Victorians had fun and could, and did, laugh。A項changed people’s impression of the Victorians是對該句的概括。所以本題選A。
32. 【答案】B(They are rare among photographs of that age.)
【解析】本題為細節題。根據題干關鍵詞the Victorian portraits he has collected定位到第二段①句中的my collection of ‘Smiling Victorians’ makes up only a tiny percentage of the vast catalogue of photographic portraiture created between 1840 and 1900。They are rare among photographs of that age是對makes up only a tiny percentage of the vast catalogue of photographic portraiture created between 1840 and 1900的概括總結。所以本題選B。
33. 【答案】D(Their unhealthy dental condition.)
【解析】本題為細節題。根據題干關鍵詞kept the Victorians from smiling for pictures in the 1890s定位到第四段②句Spontaneous smiles were relatively easy to capture by the 1890s, so we must look elsewhere for an explanation of why Victorians still hesitated to smile。該句指出在19世紀90年代，自然的。微笑相對容易捕捉，因此需要尋找其他的原因。緊接著第五段作出另一種可能的解釋，其中第五段②句中的before the birth of proper dentistry, mouths were often in a shocking state of hygiene說明了口腔衛生狀況常常令人震驚，導致維多利亞人拍照時不露齒笑，對應了Their unhealthy dental condition。所以本題選D。
34. 【答案】A(a deep-root belief)
【解析】本題為例證題。根據題干關鍵詞Mark Twain定位到第六段②句，該句引用了Mark Twain的具體話語。再向前尋找他所要證明的觀點，從而定位到第六段①句A toothy grin (especially when there were gaps or blackened teeth) lacked class，即“露齒微笑缺少修養”，這是一種根深蒂固的觀念，對應A項a deep-root belief。所以本題選A。
35. 【答案】A(Why did most Victorians look stern in photographs?)
【解析】本題為主旨大意題。全文前兩段提出維多利亞時代人們拍照時普遍不會微笑這一現象，接下來第三段至第六段分別從曝光時間，牙齒健康狀況以及固有觀念這三方面分析現象背后的原因，因此A項Why did most Victorians look stern in photographs?是對原文主旨的概括。所以本題選A。
