Programs that drive digital experiences today seem to turn to contents that are popular,and they are unable to tell facts from fictions (虚构的事).And due to the fact that anyone can post anything they want online,unconfirmed reports and irresponsible and unchecked contents are common in the online world.
The problem is so common that the British newspaper The Independent has a whole page contributed to news about fake (虚假的) news,along with Mashable’s social media and a growing number of others.
During the past days when most kids used textbooks that had been edited and reviewed responsibly before they were used,the need for students to check their sources was not great.Today,it’s different.Students use the Internet for research,and teachers and parents can’t keep them away from bad contents all the time.And they’re on their own as they get older.They have to master information literacy,the skills of recognizing bad information,identifying good information,and understanding the difference between the two.
There are people and organizations dealing with the problem and developing information for Internet searchers,both adults and children.The website of Encyclopedia Britannica (《大英百科全书》),for example,has provided Internet searchers with extra information at the top right of their results page.The move is intended to make people slow down and think twice before accepting search results as facts.
Fake news is here to stay.We all need to fight.We can start with awareness and a few rules:don’t make the web full of bad information;don’t spread or share information if you aren’t sure about it.And be mindful of how we use information;practice information literacy.And human curiosity is of great importance in this fight against misinformation.Curiosity drives learning and makes people question information.We need everyone to join in researching and questioning the truth.
1.What problem is described about the online world
A.We are given too much information.
B.Useless results often show up first online.
C.The Internet includes much fake information.
D.Fake news is spread purposely to attract searchers.
2.What does the third paragraph mainly talk about
A.The need for information literacy.
B.Different generations’ learning style.
C.How networks affect today’s students.
D.Why fake contents exist on the Internet.
3.What does the website of Encyclopedia Britannica do for searchers
A.It marks the facts.
B.It provides more details.
C.It corrects the search results.
D.It alarms searchers if necessary.
4.Which of the following would the author agree with
A.It is hard to clean up all fake news.
B.We can’t speak freely in cyberspace.
C.People should be forced to follow the rules.
D.We should keep curious to discover the truth.

答案:
Ⅰ.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。现在,网络上充斥着虚假信息。随着青少年接触网络的机会越来越多,训练他们提高分辨信息的能力越来越重要。
1.C 推理判断题。根据第一段的内容可知,电脑程序并不能分辨事实与虚假信息,网上的未经确认的说法及不负责任、未加审核的信息也很常见。由此可知,网络世界中存在的问题是其中包含很多虚假信息。
2.A 段落大意题。第三段先提到过去孩子们使用经过审校的课本,因而不用过于检查课本的来源;接着将现在孩子们的情况跟过去进行对比,现在,孩子们经常使用网络资源,而家长跟老师很难让孩子们完全远离低质内容;最后提到了孩子们必须要具备一定的信息素养,以此来提高分辨信息的能力。由此可知,文章第三段主要讲述了信息素养的重要性。
3.B 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“The website of Encyclopedia Britannica...make people slow down and think twice”可知,大英百科全书网站会提供更多的细节信息。
4.D 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“human curiosity is of great importance...questioning the truth”可知,好奇心会让人们进行学习,对问题发问,每一个人都应当为了真相进行研究与发问。由此可知,我们应当保持好奇心以发现真相。
Ⅱ.【语篇解读】本文是一篇议论文。作者认为许多人害怕在社交媒体上展示自己的真实生活,这是因为不自信和不接受自己。
1.C 根据上文“beautify their selfie so much”可推知,此处指把自拍照片美化得太过以至于让人辨认不出来了。envy“嫉妒”;admire“钦佩”;recognise“辨认”;defeat“击败”。故选C项。
2.A 根据上文“There must be one or more”可知,你的社交媒体里一定有一个或多个这样的人。exist“存在”;survive“生存”;flood“淹没;充满”;spot“看见”。故选A项。
3.D 根据上文“Every time we went to a restaurant”可知,每次去餐厅时,她都要等到点的菜都上桌了才肯吃一口。take a bite意为“吃一口”,故选D项。
4.A 句意:她要等到点的菜都上桌了才肯吃一口。order“点(菜)”;serve“服务”;offer“提供”;prepare“准备”。故选A项。
5.B 句意:她会花时间让桌子上的菜看起来是随意摆放,实则是按照自己安排好的顺序摆放的。messy“混乱的”;arranged“按顺序的”;casual“随意的”;correct“正确的”。故选B项。
6.C 结合上文“Then the most important part:taking pictures.”可知,此处指选择其中一张照片进行修图。
7.A 根据下文“it all went cold”可知,最后食物变凉了,所以此处是指大家没有机会真正去享受菜肴。have no chance to do...意为“没有机会做……”,故选A项。
8.D 句意:她讨厌洗碗所以会把用过的碗放好几天。分析选项可知,只有D项符合语境。
9.B 根据上文“Many people care too much about others’ opinions”可知,许多人因为太在乎别人的看法,而去努力取悦别人。comfort“安慰”;please“取悦”;inspire“激励”;discourage“使灰心”。故选B项。

12.D 结合上文“this will not bring any change to reality”可知,因为他们仍然遵循着同样的生活方式,所以这不会给现实带来任何改变。
13.A 结合上下文语境可知,如果他们真的想要优雅的生活,那么他们就应该付出更多的努力来实现它。
14.B 结合上文“and to accept themselves”可知,此处指要自信,接受自己并尽最大的努力变得更好。identify“识别”;accept“接受”;persuade“说服”;amuse“逗乐”。故选B项。

Ⅲ.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。旨在告知读者如何有效地制止网络霸凌。
1.C 上文“you can usually get away from the bullies when you are at home”说明校园霸凌会因为待在家而远离。下文“Cyber bullying can be done...You might feel it will never end.”说明网络霸凌可以是匿名的,你可能会感觉它永无休止。故可推断和校园霸凌不一样的是,网络霸凌不会消失。C项“But with cyber bullying there is no way out.”,以“但是”作为转折,说网络霸凌不会消失符合上下文的语境。故选C项。
2.D 上文“You might feel like it will never end.”说明“你”可能感觉网络霸凌永无止境。下文“We want you to know there are things you can do to make it stop.”指出“你”可以做一些事来终止网络霸凌。故可推测出空格处为承上启下的转折句。D项“没人有权利让你有那样的感觉”与上文过渡自然。故选D项。

4.E 上文“It is a good idea to keep a copy...and time they were sent.”提供了一个好办法:把辱骂的文本、邮件、评论、信息等的副本保留下来,并记录好他们发送过来的时间。E选项 “Keeping records can be useful when it comes to reporting the bullying.”指出了这样做的好处:如果要报告这一霸凌事件时,这些记录会起作用。故选E项。
5.G 上文“In addition,you must never give out any personal details on the Internet.”指出“你”不能把自己的个人细节信息泄露在网络上。G选项 “Such information includes your real name,address,age or phone number.” 指出上文说的个人信息包含真实姓名、地址、年龄和电话号码。故选G项。UNIT 5单元提能强化练

答案:
Ⅰ.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了人们在龙卷风到来之前、龙卷风发生时以及龙卷风过后要注意的安全问题和急救措施。
1.D 推理判断题。根据第一段可知,飓风在到来前会提前几天就有预警,而龙卷风是突然发生的,这使人们对龙卷风提前做好应急准备非常重要,由此推断提到飓风的目的是为了说明龙卷风更难提前为之做好准备。
2.C 细节理解题。根据Before a storm部分第二条可知,应急箱里面要放入水、食物以及备用电池等。
3.B 细节理解题。根据Safety measures during a storm部分第二条中的“If you’re in a mobile home,get out quickly”可知,龙卷风发生的时候要立即离开活动的房屋。
4.A 主旨大意题。通读全文内容可知,文章主要介绍了人们在龙卷风到来之前、龙卷风发生时以及龙卷风过后要注意的安全问题和急救措施,所以A项“针对龙卷风的安全措施”能概括全文内容。
Ⅱ.【语篇解读】本文是一篇议论文。文章论述了人们对运动会是否要有输赢的不同观点。
1.C 根据上文可知,本段会介绍喜欢运动和恐惧运动的人。下文介绍了恐惧运动的人,由此可知,空处应是介绍喜欢运动的人。C项符合文意。
2.E 上文讲非竞争性运动让所有孩子不必担心失败,尽情地运动,这是它的益处。E项承接上文,讲出了非竞争性运动给孩子带来的益处。
3.A 由上文“However,some people feel that...learning how to win.”可知,上下文讲的是赢的重要性。A项体现了对赢的看重。
4.F 本段是在讲大部分人都同意上文提到的观点,特别是父母,所以F项“有很多人同意这个想法,尤其是父母!”符合文意。
5.D 根据后文“We want to know your ideas.”可推断,空处应是提了一个问题。所以D项“那么,学校运动会是否应该是竞争性的呢 ”符合语境。
Ⅲ.【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。作者的女儿过生日当天发生了地震,他们去学校派送礼物时发现学校里没有人,最后作者一家将礼物送给了附近医院的孩子们。
1.B 根据下文“I would wake her up early the next morning and hand out the presents”可知,作者向女儿承诺(promised)会在第二天叫醒她,去派送礼物。

11.C 根据下文“There were hundreds of injured people waiting for treatment.”可知,作者决定将礼物送给医院(hospital)的孩子们。
12.D 根据下文“He looked at me with his eyes as if asking,‘Could I have one ’”可知,此处表示一个头上缠着绷带的男孩走到跟前(came up)。
13.D 根据下文“as if asking”可知,男孩用询问的(questioning)眼光看着作者。

My wife and I recently completed a day-long tour of the Great Wall with Jessie.In addition to being very knowledgeable about the history of the areas that we toured,she spoke excellent English and was able to answer all of our questions.Her driver was very experienced and polite,and we really enjoyed being able to have a customized tour that avoided the tourist traps and forced shopping that seem to be a part of the larger group tours.
The attractions themselves were fantastic.I was a little worried that the snowy weather might impact our trip to the Great Wall,but everything went fine,and there weren’t many people out at all that day.I suggest wearing strong shoes—the Great Wall is really a hike.And on snowy or rainy days,the surfaces are pretty slippery(滑的)!Seeing this area in winter was really unique,and the snow made for great pictures.Jessie kept us entertained with stories and facts about the construction of the Great Wall,and always pointed out great spots for taking pictures.Even though she’s in fantastic shape,she cared about our level of fitness and often stopped to let us catch our breath.
When we got back to our hotel,Jessie gave us a great recommendation for dinner and some tips for our planned stops the next day.If I find myself in Beijing in the future,I will certainly be contacting Jessie for more tour opportunities,and I’ve already recommended her to some friends who are visiting the area later in the year.I can’t say enough about how kind and knowledgeable she was,and she really gave us a great tour experience.
1.What can we infer about Jessie
A.She is a tour advisor.
B.She is a tour guide.
C.She is a foreign traveler.
D.She is a skilled driver.
2.When did the writer visit the Great Wall
A.In spring. B.In summer.
C.In autumn. D.In winter.
3.What did the writer think of his tour
A.Adventurous. B.Disappointing.
C.Satisfactory. D.Improvable.
4.What is the probable title for the text
A.A Wonderful Tour Day with Jessie
B.An Extraordinary Tour Company
C.The Great Wall,an Excellent Attraction
D.Jessie,a Kind and Knowledgeable Guide

Are you thinking about holidaying alone,but a bit concerned about the dangers You needn’t worry if you consider these tips first.
1.Safety
Unless you positively invite danger—i.e.wandering around a dark park at 3 am with headphones on—travelling alone isn’t actually that risky. 1 In the case of taking taxis,always keep a record of the plate number and ask for an estimated fare before setting off.You should also carry your ID card with you and always keep a back-up.And most importantly,ensure that someone else knows your route and keep in regular contact with them.
2.Plan
Being alone means you can’t use your partner’s phone when yours runs out of juice,or rely on them should you lose your wallet. 2 It’s a good idea to write down some key numbers of friends,hotels and emergency services beforehand,and keep some back-up money in your bag,just in case.
3.Eating
Many single travelers have a fear of eating alone. 3 You can bring a book to avoid boredom,sit at counters to be less noticeable or use the opportunity to practice your foreign language on a waiter.
4.Making friends
4 This is another common concern when travelling alone.In fact,acquiring new companions(伙伴) is easier than feared.You can smile at people,read something interesting to start a conversation,or ask strangers a question.All these help you look approachable.More hands-on tips include visiting bars,joining tours or using apps designed to help people make friends.
5.Enjoy it
Without having to consider others’ needs,the joy of solo travel is that you can be entirely selfish:walk at your preferred pace,eat what and when you want,and go wherever you like to see the sights that interest you. 5
A.What if no one likes me on my trip
B.The biggest danger is being taken for a ride.
C.It’s actually not so hard to get over your worry.
D.You needn’t get into a panic if this really happens.
E.However well you plan in advance,things will go wrong.
F.Just appreciate your independence and enjoy that freedom.
G.So put emergency systems in place before starting your trip.

The Price of a Dream
I grew up in a poor family with six brothers,three sisters—a group of foster kids,my father and my wonderful mother.My parents worked day and night to keep a roof over our heads and food on our table.It’s true that we had little money and few goods,but we got plenty of love and attention.I was very happy and energetic.I understood that no matter how poor a person was,he could still afford a dream.
My dream was athletics.I fell in love with baseball at an early age.I practiced hard every day and that made me a little closer to my dream.By the time I was sixteen,I had made great progress:I could throw a ninety-mile-per-hour fast ball and hit anything that moved on the field.I was also lucky:my high school coach was Ollie Jarvis,who not only believed in me,but also taught me how to believe in myself.One particular incident(事件) with my coach Ollie Jarvis changed my life forever.
It was the summer holiday in Senior 2 and one of my friends recommended me for a summer job.This meant a chance for money in my pocket—certainly,money for a new bike and new clothes,and I could also begin to save money for a house for my mother,which was what I had always dreamed of.The prospect(前景) of this summer job was attractive and I wanted to jump at this chance.Then it hit me that I would have to give up summer baseball training to deal with the work schedule.I was afraid of telling my coach,who would certainly be against my plan.I hesitated for several days.At last,I spurred(给……打气) myself with the advice my mother often gave us,“If you make your bed,you have to lie in it.” I made up my mind.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式作答。
When I told my coach Ollie Jarvis,he was as angry as I expected him to be.
“Well,” he asked,“is $3.5 an hour from the summer job the price of a dream ”

When I told my coach Ollie Jarvis,he was as angry as I expected him to be.“You have your whole life to work,” he said,with a serious look on his face,“but your playing days are limited.You can’t afford to waste them.” I stood before him with my head hanging,trying to think of the words that would explain to him why my dream of having money in my pocket and buying my mother a house was worth facing his disappointment in me.“How much are you going to make at this summer job,son ” he demanded.“$3.5 per hour,” I replied in a low voice.
“Well,” he asked,“is $3.5 an hour from the summer job the price of a dream ”That simple question set me thinking.It made me understand the difference between wanting something right now and having a long-term goal.Determined to put all my heart into baseball,I promised the coach that I would give up the job.That summer,I dedicated myself to baseball training,and the next year,I was given a baseball scholarship to a university.Finally,I signed with a famous team for $1.7 million,and certainly bought my mother the house of my dream.
