三、七选五
There are five factors which contribute to the spread of fake news: political gain, misreporting, going viral(病毒式传播), financial gain and "not letting the truth get in the way of a good story".
①_____ When the Titanic disaster happened, telegrams stating that all the passengers from the Titanic had been rescued were reported as facts in newspapers, before the full extent of the tragedy came to light.
②_____ In the early 20th century it took years rather than seconds but the principle was the same. People shared the photographs around, not checking the accuracy of them, either wanting to believe they were real, or just because they were a novelty.
It's long been believed that the motto of Fleet Street is "Never let the facts get in the way of a good story", illustrated by a news story earlier in 2017 that Jeremy Corbyn had refused to bow his head to the Queen at the State Opening of Parliament. Only later did it become known that protocol(礼节) doesn't require bowing to the Queen in these situations. ③_____
The final two factors for a story to be fake news often go hand in hand: as a political tool, and a must to make profits. ④_____ Easier than you'd think. The websites with fake news can easily get astonishing hits, which then attract advertisements and thus earn the website owners a nice profit.
The good news is that a number of new media organizations are trying to encourage us to think about where news comes from, who puts it out, and whether anyone can politically, financially or ideologically gain from it, before we share it around social media. ⑤_____
A. How does that make money
B. How do people gain politically
C. But that didn't matter—the story was out.
D. Here is a good example of misreporting.
E. That was how a good story came into being.
F. Going viral is another typical characteristic of fake news.
G. Thus we can give it certain respectability and trustworthiness.

二、答案：1.upset; upsetting; 2.outcome; 3.worthwhile; 4.blanket; blanketed; 5.election; elected; 6.contest; 7.enthusiasm; enthusiastic
三、答案：DFCAG
解析：①横线后一句“When the Titanic disaster happened, Telegrams stating that all the passengers from the Titanic had been rescued were reported as fact in newspapers”告诉我们当泰坦尼克号沉没的时候,新闻报道说所有乘客都获救了。这属于典型的虚假新闻,列举的是错误报道的例子,所以D项“Here is a good example of misreporting.”符合语境,故选择D项。
②横线后一句“In the early 20th century it took years rather than seconds but the principle was the same.”告诉我们在20世纪早期虚假新闻的传播要好几年,而现在只要几秒钟。虽然时间差别很大,但是这种病毒式传播虚假新闻的原则是一样的,所以F项“Going viral is another typical characteristic of fake news.”符合语境,故选择F项。
③横线前一句中列举事例告诉我们实际上Jeremy Corbyn在国会上并不需要向女王鞠躬,但他拒绝向女王鞠躬的新闻已经传播出去了,至于最终是否是真实的并不重要。所以C项“But that didn't matter, the story was out.”符合语境,故选择C项。
④本段最后一句“The websites with fake news can easily get astonishing hits, which then attracts advertisements and thus earn the website owners a nice profit.”告诉我们虚假新闻刊登在网站上,引起更多人点击这个新闻,会吸引广告商在这个网站上投放广告,网站的所有者就可以挣钱了。该句解释了A项“How does that make money ”所提出的问题。故选择A项。
⑤本段第一句“The good news is that a number of new media organizations are trying to encourage us to think about where news comes from, who puts it out, and whether anyone can politically, financially or ideologically gain from it， before we share it around social media.”告诉我们很多新闻媒体鼓励人们在传播信息之前要仔细思考这个消息的来源以及谁能够从中获利等。这样做能够更好地确定新闻的真实性。G项“Thus we can give it certain respectability and trustworthiness.”符合语境,故选择G项。
四、答案：①. who/ that②. is raining③. the④. be given⑤. beauty ⑥. totally⑦. what⑧. Tears⑨. telling⑩. to let
解析：①who/ that考查定语从句。设空处引导定语从句修饰先行词An elderly lady，且在从句中作主语。
②is raining考查动词时态。根据at the moment可知，此处表示“正在下雨”，应该用现在进行时。
③考查冠词。设空处修饰名词garden，该词在文中是第二 次出现，为特指。
④考查被动语态。give与she之间是被动关系，且设空处位于情态动词后，故填be given。
⑤考查名词。根据此处的the…of…结构可知，设空处为中心词，应用名词形式。
⑥考查副词。空后的surprised为形容词，故此处用副词修饰形容词。
⑦考查疑问词。此处为“疑问词+不定式”结构，不定式中的动词say没有宾语，故用疑问词what。
⑧考查名词复数。设空处作句子的主语，表示“泪水”，且此处无限定词。故用名词的复数形式。
⑨考查现在分词作状语。设空处的动作tell作laughed的伴随状语，且与主语I之间是主动关系。故用现在分词形式。
⑩考查不定式。此处为不定式作目的状语。
