Ⅰ.阅读理解
(2024·珠海高一检测)
Raegan Byrd tries to complete her homework every night.But the high school student in Hartford，Connecticut, has to use her mobile phone to search for the necessary information because she does not have internet connection at home.
In May, the US Department of Education(ED) published its findings that the number of homes without access(接入) to internet has been getting smaller, but 14 percent of homes in city areas and 18 percent of homes in the countryside still do not have internet connections.
In some states, the problem is much more serious.For example, in the countryside of northern Mississippi, a third of the 294 homes in Maben do not have computers.And close to half have no access to internet whether they can pay for it or not.
Sharon Stidham, a mother in Maben, has to take her four boys to the school library at East Webster High School.Her husband works there, so the children can use the internet for their schoolwork.A signal tower can be seen through the trees from their home, but they could not put aside any money for the internet.Research results from the National Center for Education(NCE) have shown that students with internet at home get much better scores in reading, math and science than the ones who do not.Some teachers call this problem “the homework divide”．Jessica Rosenworcel, an NCE member, said, “The so-called homework divide is the cruelest part of the digital age and it is hurting the poor students and creating a big barrier to their dreams.”
Local communities(社区) have started to help.They made lists of restaurants and other businesses with Wi-Fi places where children are welcome to come and do their homework.And many public libraries have also planned to offer free access to the students next year.
语篇导读：本文是一篇说明文。美国部分家庭没有安装网络，导致了一部分孩子不能完成家庭作业，因此社区和公共场所也大力提供帮助。
1.What has ED found out in its survey？ D
A．Students with internet at home are doing better at school.
B．About 33% of the students in Mississippi do not have internet at home.
C．An increasing number of students do not have access to internet at home.
D．4% more homes in the countryside don't have internet access than those in the city.
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段“14 percent of homes in city areas and 18 percent of homes in the countryside still do not have internet connections(城市地区14%的家庭和农村地区18%的家庭仍然没有互联网连接)”可知，农村和城市区域没有网络连接家庭的相比较，农村家庭的百分比，要比城市多出4%。故选D。
2.Why does Sharon Stidham take her sons to the East Webster High School library？ A
A．Her sons have to use the internet for their schoolwork.
B．She wants her sons to study in a better environment.
C．She does not want to pay for the internet at home.
D．Her husband is a teacher in the library.
解析：细节理解题。根据第四段的第二句“Her husband works there, so the children can use the internet for their schoolwork.(她的丈夫在那里工作，所以孩子们可以用互联网做功课。)”可知，她带上四个孩子去她丈夫工作的地方是为了让孩子们有网络做作业。故选A。
3.How does Jessica Rosenworcel think of “the homework divide”？ C
A．Unimportant. B．Useful.
C．Harmful. D．Positive.
解析：推理判断题。根据倒数第二段的“Jessica Rosenworcel, an NCE member, said, ‘The so-called homework divide is the cruelest part of the digital age and it is hurting the poor students and creating a big barrier to their dreams.’(NCE成员Jessica Rosenworcel表示：‘所谓的家庭作业鸿沟是数字时代最残酷的部分，它伤害了贫困学生，给他们的梦想制造了巨大障碍。’)”可推知，Jessica Rosenworcel认为“家庭作业鸿沟”是对学生，尤其是贫困学生有害的。故选C。
4.What is the main idea of the last paragraph？ A
A．Helps are coming from the public and the local communities.
B．Libraries have opened their doors to the students for free.
C．Restaurants have volunteered to take in the children.
D．Local communities are called on to take action.
解析：段落大意题。根据最后一段的第一句“Local communities(社区) have started to help.(当地社区已经开始提供帮助。)”以及最后一句“And many public libraries have also planned to offer free access to the students next year.(许多公共图书馆也计划明年向学生免费开放。)”可知，当地社区和公共场所都在提供帮助。故选A。
Ⅱ.语法填空
(2023·汉中高一检测)
To a certain extent, we can hardly live without the Internet.So far, the Internet 1.has brought (bring)us great convenience. 2.However , it also raises all sorts of questions.When surfing the Internet, how can we protect 3.ourselves (we) How can we use the Internet responsibly The followings may show you how to live in the digital world.
Above all, you should use the Internet in a safe way.You must always be careful about which sites 4.to trust (trust)．One wrong click may damage your computer and remove all your computer files！Therefore, before 5.visiting (visit)a web page, always check for signs that warn people of danger.Another tip is to keep your 6.personal (person) information private, including your phone number, address and email account.
You also need to show respect when you are interacting 7.with other online users.Leave comments politely and treat others the way you would like 8.to be treated (treat)．Though today online users are 9.nicer (nice) and more friendly than before, there might be some users who still make you feel uncomfortable online.In such cases, be aware that you always have the right to say no and cut off contact.Remember that relationships you establish in the digital world are just 10.the same as those you have in real life.
语篇导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章就如何在网络世界中生活提出了建议。
解析：
1．考查时态和主谓一致。句意：到目前为止，互联网给我们带来了很大的方便。根据时间状语“So far”可知，此处应用现在完成时。主语the Internet为第三人称单数，助动词用has。故填has brought。
2．考查副词。句意：然而，它也引起了各种各样的问题。“it also raises all sorts of questions”和前文构成转折关系，且空格后有逗号，所以应用however表示“然而”，句首单词首字母应大写。故填However。
3．考查反身代词。句意：当我们上网时，我们如何保护我们自己呢？当宾语和主语指同一人或物时，宾语要用反身代词。空处在句中作宾语，且由主语we可知此处用反身代词ourselves。故填ourselves。
4．考查非谓语动词。句意：你必须始终注意哪些网站值得信任。“特殊疑问词＋to do”在句中可作主语、宾语、表语、宾语补足语等句子成分。“which sites to trust”在句中作介词about的宾语。故填to trust。
5．考查非谓语动词。句意：因此，在访问一个网页之前，一定要检查那些警告人们危险的标志。介词后用动名词，本句中空前的before为介词，意为“在……之前”，所以空处用动名词visiting。故填visiting。
6．考查形容词。句意：另一个建议是保持你的个人信息的私密性，包括你的电话号码、地址和电子邮件账号。information“信息”为不可数名词，名词前用形容词作定语，所以空处用形容词personal，personal information表示“个人信息”。故填personal。
7．考查介词。句意：在与其他在线用户交流时，你也需要表现出尊重。interact with sb.表示“同某人沟通/交流”，所以空处用介词with。故填with。
8．考查非谓语动词。句意：礼貌地留下评论，以你希望别人对待你的方式对待别人。would like to do sth.意为“想要做某事”，为固定搭配，主语you与treat之间为被动关系，故此处应使用不定式的被动式。故填to be treated。
9．考查形容词的比较级。句意：虽然如今网络用户比以前更友善、更友好，但也可能有一些用户让你在网上感到不舒服。结合空后“and more friendly than before”可知，空处与more friendly是并列关系，应用比较级nicer。故填nicer。
10．考查冠词。句意：记住，你在数字世界中建立的关系和你在现实生活中建立的关系是一样的。“the same as”意为“与……相同”，为固定搭配。所以此处应用定冠词the。故填the。
Ⅲ.读后续写
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
18-year-old Sadiya was born in Deora, a small village in eastern India, but moved to the city of Mumbai when she was3.In 2020, when a natural disaster broke out, her father's small business was forced to close temporarily and the whole family returned to her ancestral village to wait out the disaster.
However, she was shocked when she found that school in Deora was not common.When she learned about the specific situation, she knew that the children here really loved reading, and wanted to read more and more books, but they did not have the appropriate channels to get books to read.
Sadiya, the college girl with a strong sense of social responsibility, has been trying to seize opportunities to open doors for others.Fluent in Hindi, Urdu, and English, she wants to do something to change the status quo.
Used to taking on challenges, Sadiya was determined to do something for the children.One day last July, Sadiya sat down with her family elders and proposed the idea of setting up a library.Many shook their heads in disagreement—this wasn't how a young girl should spend her time.
After many discussions, Sadiya finally convinced them and gained access to her relative's guesthouse, mending it with some money that she'd won in public-speaking awards.She took the help of her uncle, Akbar, and cousin, Nawaz, and got to work.Walls were repainted, the bamboo roof was repaired and lights and bookshelves were fixed, and the room was filled with chairs and a long table.Vivid charts were stuck on the walls—from anatomy(解剖) to transportation, lightening the space.Looking at the newly-decorated “library”， Sadiya couldn't hold back her excitement while imagining the children reading books here by light.
All was ready except books.So what Sadiya was desperate to do next was fill the shelves with books.She drew on all her savings and purchased many books suitable for children online.
注意：续写词数应为150左右。
But these books were far from enough.
With everything ready, the library finally opened.
参考范文：
But these books were far from enough.To ensure children get access to more books, Sadiya took pictures of the library and uploaded them online, calling on people to donate books to the library.Before long, hundreds of new and second-hand books poured in, but they needed checking, classifying and arranging in order on the shelves, which took Sadiya, her uncle and cousin a whole week.Tired as Sadiya was, a smile lit up her face when she pictured the scene where children were buried in reading by the book-filled shelves.
With everything ready, the library finally opened.Several children stepped in curiously, asking Sadiya，“Can we read the books？” “Sure.Welcome！” Sadiya encouraged them.Some chose what they liked, while others hesitated.Realising they had trouble reading, Sadiya gathered them in a corner, teaching them from the very beginning.Soon more children joined in.Every night Sadiya spared some time to give lessons so that more children could gain knowledge from the books.Sadiya's efforts opened the wisdom door for them, which would surely make a great difference to their lives.

The Advantages and Disadvantages of Online Education
With the popularity of the Internet, more and more schools and students focus on online education.
Certainly, it has some advantages.Firstly, online education isn't limited by time and place.Students have access to their study materials whenever and wherever they like.Secondly, online education frees teachers from repeating the same teaching contents since the video can be played over and over again.However, online education also has some disadvantages.With online courses, students have to spend more time using computers, thus doing serious damage to their eyesight.And online education will reduce the communication between students and teachers, which will lead to the lack of learning atmosphere.
Personally, if traditional teaching and online education can be combined, more fruitful education is bound to be realized.
