Ⅲ.阅读理解
(2021·安徽合肥蜀山二模)①The mobile phone was a great invention. It enables people to communicate with others easily, meaning we could get in touch with people to and from almost anywhere in the world. But even if we can talk to one another as soon as we want, it seems many of us like to communicate by text better. A study in the UK a few years ago found 49% of young people would like to send a text instead of speaking to someone.
②Certainly sending an SMS, a text or message through an app means we can think about what we want to say, and we can express more perfectly—especially if we communicate by using emojis(表情). It can also be quicker than having to talk with someone, although I feel you can still end up wasting time by having a full discussion by text! Text messaging can also protect your secret. It can stop other people from overhearing your text if you're in a public place, such as on a train.
③But texting instead of talking can seem unsocial. We may even forget the art of humors. A text can be misunderstood too because you miss out on a speaker's intonation(语调). Scientist Sophie Scott said, “We always speak with intonation to our voice. You take that information out of communication. You lose another way that sense is being expressed.”
④So every coin has two sides. It doesn't matter which way you choose. Who can win your attention, the one texting you or the other talking to you It's up to who has a more interesting thing to say.
1.The writer thinks that many people like to communicate with others by ________ better.
A.dancing B.texting
C.touching D.talking
2.What does the underlined word “It” refer to(指的是)
A.Writing a letter.

A.you send a wrong message
B.they can't understand short forms
C.you can't use body languages
D.they may miss out on your intonation

Ⅴ.短文填空
(2021·重庆渝中调研考试)On June 3, 2020, a document(文件) by the Ministry of Education(MOE 教育部) included labor(劳动) education as a compulsory course(必修课) for high school students.
According to Xinhua, many Chinese people are worrying that the country's young students do too little housework. For example, a survey found that students in China only spend about 12 minutes day 1 housework, while American students spend 72 minutes and in South Korea, 42 minutes. Besides, schools and parents sometimes focus on(关注) students' 2 and see physical work as distractions(干扰).
