【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文，主要就如何拍摄出完美的天空提出了一些建议。
1．G 根据上文“Capturing a dramatic sky with a camera is mre difficult than it seems.With the sky lighter than the land, the camera will typically ver－expse the sky, turning a brilliant blue int an unexciting gray (用相机捕捉引人注目的天空比看起来要困难得多。由于天空比陆地亮，相机通常会过度曝光天空，将明亮的蓝色变成平淡的灰色)．”可知，本句为本段最后一句，有启示下文的作用，结合后文主要介绍了一些拍摄天空的技巧，故G选项“这里有一些拍摄出完美天空的技巧”符合语境。故选G项。
2．F 根据标题“◆Time is right.”以及后文“The sky that’s gray ne day, culd be bright blue the next.When planning ut a landscape pht, cnsider hw the timing will impact the sky(今天还是灰色的天空，明天可能会变成明亮的蓝色。在规划一张风景照片时，要考虑时机对天空的影响)．”可知，本段主要说明的是拍摄天空要注意时机问题，且标题中Time可对应到F选项中timing。故F选项“但要拍摄出完美的天空，时机是很重要的”符合语境。故选F项。
3．B 本空为本段小标题，根据后文“Phtgraphy rules are smetimes meant t be brken.Smetimes, using the wrng white balance setting creates a mre dramatic sky.This is especially true when shting twards the beginning r end f the day(有时候，摄影规则就是用来打破的。有时，使用错误的白平衡设置可以创造出更引人注目的天空。尤其是在一天的开始或结束时拍摄，更是如此)．”由此可知，本段主要说明的是要勇于打破常规，尝试错误的白平衡设置，且后文中“the wrng white balance setting”可对应到B选项中“the wrng white balance”。故B选项“尝试错误的白平衡”符合小标题。故选B项。
4．E 根据后文“If yu are shting a pht with an average lking sky, try placing the hrizn n the upper third f the image, s mre f the land is included in the pht.But if the sky is really dramatic, take advantage f that and include mre f it in the frame by placing the hrizn n the lwer third (如果你拍摄的是一个普通的天空，试着把地平线放在图像的上三分之一处，这样可以将更多的陆地包括在照片中。但如果天空真的非常引人注目，就可以利用这一点，将地平线放在下三分之一处，从而将更多的天空纳入画面)．”可知，后文主要说明了拍摄天空放置地平线位置的问题，且后文中“placing the hrizn”可对应到E选项中“place the hrizn”。故E选项“注意你放置地平线的位置”符合语境。故选E项。
5．A 根据小标题“◆ Use a filter.”以及后文“It limits the light cming in fr bright scenes r lng expsures.Every landscape phtgrapher shuld have a filter in their camera bag in rder t capture mre dramatic skies (它限制光线进入明亮的场景或长时间曝光。每个风景摄影师都应该在他们的相机包里装上一个滤镜，这样才能捕捉到更引人注目的天空)．”可知，本段主要说明的是拍摄天空时滤镜的使用问题，结合后文可知，本句主要是在说明滤镜的作用。且标题中“a filter”可对应到A选项中“A filter”。故A选项“滤镜就像太阳镜”符合语境。故选A项。
