Ⅳ.阅读理解
So many things can keep you from seeing your loved ones in person, from busy schedules(日程安排) to long distances to a rather unexpected pandemic(流行病). Fortunately, thanks to modern technology, the people we miss are often only a phone call or text message away. But if you're someone who's more prone(倾向于) to type out messages than speaking ones, you may want to reconsider. According to science, if you want to feel more connected with the people you're talking to, you should call them instead of texting.
A new study found that communication interactions(互动) that included voice like a phone call or video chat created stronger social bonds than communication through typing like text messages or emails.
In a study, researchers asked 200 people to make predictions(预测) about what it would be like to reconnect with an old friend by email or by phone. Although people expected that a phone call would be more awkward, hearing someone's voice actually made the experience better. What's more, people reported they did form a significantly stronger bond with their old friend on the phone than by email, and they did not feel more awkward.
In another experiment, the researchers had strangers connect by texting, talking over video, or talking over audio only. They found that both forms of voice communication—whether video or audio only—made the strangers feel significantly more connected than when they communicated by texting.
Sabrina Romanoff, a psychologist(心理学家) in New York City, says people tend to text or email instead of calling because of convenience, as they see it as a controlled form of communication. Romanoff also says that in reality, texting can make it hard to determine the true meaning behind a conversation. “A phone call is actually more convenient when considering the net effects of the message，” she explains.
(　　)17.The underlined word “awkward” probably means “________” in Chinese.
A．高兴的 B．令人尴尬的
C．令人兴奋的 D．幽默的
(　　)18.Which of the following ways can make people feel more connected
A．By writing letters. B．By talking over video or audio.
C．By sending emails. D．By texting.
(　　)19.Why do some people prefer to communicate with others by texting
A．Texting is even easier to know the true meaning behind the words.
B．Texting can't form a significantly stronger bond with their old friend.
C．They see texting as a controlled form of communication.
D．Texting can make people feel significantly more connected.
(　　)20.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true
A．A phone call or video chat can create stronger social bonds than communication through typing.
B．Hearing someone's voice made people feel more awkward when they call their friends.
C．A phone call to strangers can make the strangers feel more connected than communication through texting.
D．Texting can make it hard to determine the true meaning behind a conversation.
(　　)21.Where can we find the passage
A．On a history website.
B．In a personal letter.
C．In a story review.
D．In a science report.

Ⅳ.繁忙的日程安排、遥远的距离、突如其来的疫情……太多的事情阻止你亲自去见你所爱的人。幸运的是，我们有现代科技，只要一通电话或一个短信就能联系上我们想念的人。但如果你更倾向于发短信而不是打电话，你可能需要重新考虑一下。科学告诉我们，如果你想和交谈的人感觉更亲近，你应该给他们打电话，而不是发短信。
17．B　词义猜测题。根据第三段中“Although people expected that a phone call would be more awkward, hearing someone's voice actually made the experience better.”可知，awkward为贬义词，意为“令人尴尬的”。故选B。
18．B　细节理解题。根据第一段中“According to science, if you want to feel more connected with the people you're talking to, you should call them instead of texting.”可知，如果你想和交谈的人感觉更亲近，你应该给他们打电话，而不是发短信。故选B。
19．C　细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Sabrina Romanoff, a psychologist in New York City, says people tend to text or email instead of calling because of convenience, as they see it as a controlled form of communication.”可知，为了方便，人们倾向于发短信或电子邮件，而不是打电话，因为他们将短信和电子邮件视为可控的通信方式。故选C。
20．B　判断正误题。根据第二段“A new study found that communication interactions that included voice like a phone call or video chat created stronger social bonds than communication through typing…”可知A项正确；根据第三段中“Although people expected that a phone call would be more awkward, hearing someone's voice actually made the experience better.”可知，尽管人们预期打电话会更令人尴尬，但听到对方的声音实际上会让体验更好，故B项错误；根据第四段中“They found that both forms of voice communication—whether video or audio only—made the strangers feel significantly more connected than when they communicated by texting.”可知C项正确；根据最后一段中“…texting can make it hard to determine the true meaning behind a conversation.”可知D项正确。故选B。
21．D　推理判断题。根据第一段中“According to science, if you want to feel more connected with the people you're talking to, you should call them instead of texting.”可知，这是一篇关于科学研究发现的文章。故选D。
