A traveller was staying in an Egyptian village. One day, she held up her camera to take pictures of the children. Suddenly the young ones began to shout at her.

She explained to him the operation of a camera for a long time. Several times the head tried to say something, but he couldn't.

(答案→)D 解析：这篇文章是一则很幽默的小故事，主要讲了一位旅行者去埃及旅行，当她准备给一些孩子们拍照时，孩子们冲她大喊。她意识到有些地方的人认为被拍照，灵魂就会被带走，于是她向孩子们道歉并用很长时间解释怎样使用相机。孩子们的首领有话要说，旅行者却一直自顾自的解释着，直到她确认孩子们不再担心，她才让他们开口说话，他们说：“你没有打开镜头盖。”【小题1】根据With a smile, he said, The children were trying to tell you that you forgot to take off the lens(镜头) cap! 故选D。【小题2】根据she apologized to the head for what she was doing, and told him she had forgotten that people in some places believed a person would lose his soul(灵魂) if his picture was taken.故答案应为A。【小题3】这位旅行者向孩子们解释如何使用照相机是为了让孩子们不要担心，故选D。【小题4】根据When she believed that the head didn't fear any longer, the traveller then let him speak.
