The creator sets the _4_ settings for the entire album, which can be contributors only, friends of contributors only or public. when people are tagged in photos, the audience _5_ expands to friends of the person tagged. Each contributor is _6_ when new photos are added. The album creator may delete any contributor’s photos, so it may be a good idea to preserve a backup _7_.
Contributor can upload photos or _8_ an existing album into the shared one. They may also add other contributors and edit their own photos. A contributor who’s kicked out or __9__ an album has to go to their Activity Log to delete the photos in the album.
Mobile users can upload photos to a shared album. However, a shared album can’t be created from a mobile device yet. Facebook programmers started designing the feature and put a working version together in a matter of hours.

解题思路

Passage 29
解题思路
1.[N]空格位于副词increasingly和名词短语photo-sharing market之间,据此推断此处应填入形容词。本句提到Facebook, Google和Yahoo都加入到相片分享市场,可见这个市场的竞争很激烈,因此选用competi- tive最合适。
2.[K]此处应填入动词原形或现在分词与has构成has sb. do/doing的结构。共享相册是一个创新(innovation),再结合后面出现的几家公司,可推知他们争相占领这个市场。题库中striving符合语义。
3.[H]空格所在的定语从句主谓宾齐全,由此判断in...在从句中作状语。本句指出,Facebook用户可创建共享相册,每个相册上传人数限定50人,每个人可以上传200张照片。in可与名词turn构成固定搭配,in turn “依次,轮流”符合语义。
4.[A]空格在定冠词和名词之间,可为形容词、动词分词或名词作定语。结合定语从句的描述:只有向上传人、上传人的好友或面向公众开放,可知此处说的是关于隐私的设定,privacy符合语义。
5.[J]句子主谓宾齐全,判断空格处应为副词,修饰动词expands。词库中副词automatically“自动地”放人句中,句意通顺,指出照片上的人一旦被加上标注,相册会“自动”向其朋友开放。
6.[F]空格位于be动词之后,可以为名词、形容词或为分词。本句说的是有新照片加入共享相册的时候,相册的所有上传人(each contributor)会怎样。此处最适当的是notified,表示“得以告知”。
7.[G]空格所在句主谓宾结构完整,据此推断空格应为副词,表明保存照片的方式或地点。词库中只有副词somewhere符合语境。
8.[B] or提示空格需填人动词与前面的upload并列作句子的谓语,而且该动词可以与into搭配。后面的into the shared one提示,此处说的是将现有相册放进共享相册,merge符合语义。
9.[E]空格需要一个与is kicked out并列的动词,本句提到照片的上传者要去活动日志删除照片的两种情况,一种是他们被赶出去(is kicked out),另一种应该是“自动退出”,因此用leaves最适合。
10.[M]空格前的定冠词the提示这里应填入名词。后面提到,Facebook要做出努力(shows the effort Facebook must go through)以推出面向很多人的社交网络,由此推知,只有“推出”共享相册一段时间后,才能发现 产品的缺陷,从而进一步完善产品,release符合语境。
