2、???
Last
year,
I
took
a
sightseeing
trip
to
Washington,
DC.
I
heard
a
voice
say,
“Can
you
help
me?”
When
I
turned
around,
I
saw
an
elderly
blind
woman
with
her
hand
extended.
Immediately,
I
pulled
out
all
of
my
change
and
placed
it
on
her
hand
without
even
looking
at
her.
But
the
blind
woman
smiled
and
said,
“I
don’t
want
your
money.
I
just
need
help
finding
the
post
office.”
???
In
an
instant,
I
realized
what
I
had
done.
I
acted
with
prejudice―I
judged
another
person
simply
for
what
I
assumed
she
had
to
be.
I
hated
what
I
saw
in
myself.
???
The
thing
I
had
forgotten
about
myself
is
that
I
am
an
immigrant.
I
left
Honduras
and
arrived
in
the
US
at
the
age
of
15.I
started
my
new
life
with
two
suitcases,
my
brother
and
sister.
Through
the
years,
I
have
been
a
doorkeeper,
cashier
and
pizza
delivery
driver
among
many
other
humble(卑微的)
jobs,
and
eventually
I
became
a
network
engineer.
???
In
my
own
life,
I
have
experienced
prejudice.
I
remember
a
time―at
the
age
of
17―when
I
was
a
busboy,
I
heard
a
father
tell
his
little
boy
that
if
he
did
not
do
well
in
school,
he
would
end
up
like
me.
???
But
now,
living
in
my
American
middle-class
lifestyle,
it
is
too
easy
to
forget
my
past,
to
forget
who
I
am,
where
I
have
been,
and
to
lose
sight
of
where
I
want
to
be
going.
That
blind
woman
on
the
streets
cured
me
of
my
blindness.
She
reminded
me
of
my
belief
in
humility(谦虚).By
the
way,
I
helped
that
lady
to
the
post
office.
I
hope
to
thank
her
for
the
priceless
lesson.
1.How
did
the
writer
give
the
blind
woman
money?
A.In
a
modest
way.
B.In
a
polite
way.
C.In
a
painful
way.
D.In
an
impatient
way.
2.According

3、???
The
fourth
round
of
heavy
smog
that
hit
Beijing
in
four
weeks
has
sent
more
people
to
the
hospital
with
respiratory
(呼吸的)
illnesses
and
led
to
calls
for
laws
to
control
the
pollution.
???
Pan
Shiyi,
a
real
estate
developer,
said
he
is
planning
to
propose
a
Clean
Air
Act
to
the
local
government.
As
a
representative
of
the
Beijing
Municipal
People’s
Congress,
he
started
an
online
survey
at
9:20
am.
Within
three
hours,
more
than
25,000
web
users,
or
99
percent
of
total
respondents,
welcomed
his
proposal
on
Sina
Weibo,
China’s
Twitter.
???
They
have
good
reasons
to
stand
alongside
Pan.
The
latest
round
of
haze
(雾霾)
reduced
visibility
to
under
500
meters
in
many
parts
of
the
city.
The
smog
has
also
led
to
a
great
increase
in
respiratory
(呼吸)
illnesses,
particularly
among
children
and
the
elderly.
Anxious
parents
and
doctors
about
all
blame
the
smoggy
air
for
the
illnesses.
Though
most
schoolchildren
are
home
for
the
winter
holidays,
the
bad
air
can
easily
move
indoors.
Besides,
ordinary
medical
masks
fail
to
provide
adequate
protection,
so
some
people
have
turned
to
gas
masks
and
respirators
(呼吸器).
???
The
causes
of
the
scary
smog
are
rather
mysterious,
though
experts
blame
excessive
emissions
and
the
mountains
around
Beijing
that
trap
pollution
in
winter,
unless
there
is
adequate
wind
to
clear
it
away.
Some
critics
have
pointed
fingers
at
China’s
top
two
oil
firms,
China
National
Petroleum
Corp
and
China
Petrochemical
Corporation,
saying
the
companies’
outdated
production
technologies
produce
large
quantities
of
substandard,
high-polluting
gas
fuel.
???
Meanwhile,
concerned
Beijingers
have
moved
their
brainstorming
sessions
to
cyberspace.
If
Pan’s
proposal
for
a
Clean
Air
Act
is
adopted,
netizens
say
the
new
law
should
include
items
providing
for
“car-free
days”
in
times
of
smog,
higher
standards
for
vehicle
fuel,
stricter
restrictions
on
industrial
and
exhaust
gas
emissions,
and
more
effective
protection
for
the
public.
???
Beijing
is
not
the
only
city
that
has
ever
lost
the
blue
sky.
Five
days
of
thick
fog
caused
thousands
of
deaths
in
Britain
in
December
1952,
urging
the
government
to
pass
the
first
Clean
Air
Act
in
1956,
which
introduced
smokeless
zones
and
cleaner
fuels
to
reduce
pollution.
That
may
provide
some
experience
for
Beijing
to
refer
to.

the

4、Goldfish
have
pretty
boring
lives,
so
maybe
it’s
a
good
thing
they
can
only
concentrate
for
nine
seconds!
But
according
to
new
research,
humans
are
becoming
like
goldfish.
Our
attention
span(时长)
is
getting
shorter
and
it’s
all
because
of
technology.
“We
move
quickly
from
one
site
to
another
on
the
web,”
says
Dr.
Ted
Selker,
a
computer
scientist
from
Massachusetts,
“And
we
are
losing
the
ability
to
concentrate.”
With
millions
of
websites
to
choose
from,
the
attention
span
of
the
average
Internet
user
is
just
seconds.
There
are
other
digital
distractions(使人分心的事)
too:
emails,
instant
messaging
and
quickie
movies
on
websites.
Some
people
are
worried
about
the
effect
on
young
people.
“You
need
time
to
understand
and
think
about
what
you
read,”
says
Julia
Wood,
from
London.
“Young
people
search
the
net
all
the
time
and
their
brains
become
full
of
useless
information
but
there
is
no
time
to
make
sense
of
it.
I
am
trying
to
persuade
my
pupils
to
read
more
books,
so
that
they
concentrate
on
one
subject
for
longer.
”
Other
teachers
are
trying
more
unusual
methods
to
improve
students’
concentration.
Anne
Savan,
from
Wales,
was
so
worried
about
her
students
that
she
started
playing
Mozart
during
her
science
lessons.
She
says
that
it
had
an
amazing
effect,
“The
music
made
them
calmer,
and
their
concentration
was
much
better.”
But
not
everyone
believes
that
there
is
a
problem.
Ray
Cole,
an
educational
psychologist
says,
“On
the
web,
young
people
learn
to
make
quick
decisions
about
what
is
and
isn’t
worth
reading.
They
might
look
at
five
unhelpful
websites
very
quickly,
before
stopping
and
reading
a
sixth
useful
website
more
carefully.
In
a
world
with
so
much
information
available,
this
is
an
important
skill.
”
1.According
to
new
research,
why
humans
are
becoming
like
goldfish?
A.Because
we
have
pretty
boring
lives
like
goldfish.
B.Because
our
attention
span(时长)
is
getting
shorter
like
goldfish.
C.Because
we
can
only
concentrate
for
nine
seconds
like
goldfish.
D.Because
we
are
hard
to
learn
new
things
like
goldfish.
2.What
may
cause
a
shorter
attention
span
according
to
Dr.
Ted
Selker?
A.We
move
quickly
from
one
site
to
another
on
the
web.
B.We
become
more
and
more
busy.
C.Our
traditional
methods
of
reading
is
losing.
D.We

much
time
in
making
decisions.
3.What
will
help
students
overcome
a
short
attention
span?
A.Receiving
emails.
B.Texting
messages.
C.Reading
more
books.
D.Watching
quickie
movies.
4.What

With
the
development
of
technology
and
economy,
social
media
is
becoming
one
of
the
fastest-growing
industries
in
today’s
world.
A

conducted
by
the
US
Pew
Research
Center
showed
that
92
percent
of
teenagers
go

①______________
Changing
relationships
???
High
school
student
Elly
Cooper
from
Illinois
said
social
media
often
reduces
face-to-face
communication.
“It
makes
face-to-face
relationships
harder
because
of
people
s
attention
given
to
their
phones
instead
of
their
friends,”
Cooper
said.

②______________
Beth
Kaplan
from
Illinois
met
her
long-distance
friend
through
social
media.
He
currently
lives
in
Scotland,
but
they’re
still
able
to
frequently
communicate
with
each
other.
“I
can
feel
close
to
someone
that
I’m
talking
to
via
FaceTime,’’
Kaplan
said.

③______________
The
19-year-old
Essena
O’Neill
announced
on
the
social
networking
service
Instagram
that
she
was
emitting
social
media
because
it
made
her
unable
to
stop
thinking
about
appearing
perfect
online.
④______________
Teenagers
who
get
negative
comments
can’t

⑤______________

However,
Armin
Korsos,
a
student
from
Illinois,
takes
advantage
of
the
comments
he
receives
over
social
media
to
improve
his
videos
on
the
social
networking
site
YouTube.
“Social
media
can
help
people
show
themselves
and
their
talents
to
the
world
in
a
way
that
has
never
been
possible
before,”
Korsos
said.
A.
Opening
new
doors.
B.
Teenagers’
attitude
toward
social
media
C.
Negative
comments
can
also
do
great
damage
to
a
teenager’s
self-respect.
D.
The
wide
spread
of
social
media
has
changed
nearly
all
parts
of
teenagers’
lives.
E.
However,
the
social
media
is
beneficial
to
long-distance
friends.
F.
The
rise
of
social
media
has
changed
the
way
teenagers
see
themselves.
G.
Yet,
some
think
with
social
media,
it’s
easier
to
start
relationships
with
anyone
from
anywhere.

I’m

All
I

was

make

And

5答案及解析:
答案:DGFCA
解析:
现如今,社交媒体高度发达,其在人们日常生活中也扮演着越来越重要的作用。本文围绕这一点简述了社交媒体对青少年生活的影响。
1.?D
【解析】上文中“…that
92
percent
of
teenagers
go
online
daily."
暗示社交媒体的广泛应用,故下文应延续这个话题,且由下文列举的社交媒体改变青少年生活的几个方面可知,空处起承上启下的作用。故选D。
2.?G【解析】由Changing
relationships
可知,这一部分介绍的是人际关系方面的改变。且上文说社交媒体减少了面对面交流,而下文却说Beth
Kaplan通过社交媒体认识了她的远方朋友,并且二人经常交流。这都说明社交媒体对人际交往的促进作用。前后段之间是转折关系,故G项符合语境。
3.?F【解析】由下文所举的19岁的Essemi
O’Neill的例子可知,社交媒体改变了年轻人看待自己的方式。故f项符合语境。
4.
C
【解析】由下文“Teenagers
who
get
negative
comments
can’t
help
but
feel
hurt.(得到负面评论的青少年不可避免会感到受伤)”可知,空处应是说关于消极评论对青少年的伤害。故选C。
5.
A【解析】分析文章结构可知,空处是本段的小标题,即本段的主旨句。由下文“Social
media
can
help
people
show
themselves
and
their
talents
to
the
world
in
a
way
that
has
never
been
possible
before(社交媒体可以帮助人们以前所未有的方式向世界展示他们自己和他们的才
能)”可知,本段主要是围绕“Opening

17.A;
18.C;
19.D;
20.B
解析:
1.本文为一篇夹叙夹议的文章。作者在伦敦旅游期间发现,地铁上人们几乎个个都在玩手机,这引发了作者的反思:手机真的要掌控我们的生活吗?
根据生活常识可知,不少人会利用乘坐地铁、汽车、火车的时间打盹休息。除了睡觉的外,其他乘客几乎都在玩手机。
2.由于地铁的性质(在地铁上就像在公交车上一样,人挨人地坐着),要想不看清楚别人在干什么,是很难的。
3.根据常识可知,地铁是修建在城市"地下"的,故信号不好。
4.地铁里信号不好,这使得发信息或上网不太可能,但还是有很多事情可以使用手机做的。前后为转折关系。
5.使用手机打牌,也属于play
games,显然games可以包括A以及很多类似的活动。下一段第三句"All
I
could
do
on
this
phone
was
send
,
make
calls
and
play
one
game"中的game也是提示信息。
6.此处指人们只要从地铁站出来就会开始发短信、打电话或查收他们的邮件。
7.有了手机(收发短信、接打电话和收发电子邮件),我们就可以保持与世界上每个人持续不断的"联系"。
8.as
far
as"远到,据……,就……而言";as
long
as"只要",表示条件;as
soon
as"一……就",表示时间;as
well
as"此外,又",表示添加。与外界保持联系的"前提"是你手中要有一部手机,前后为条件与结果的关系。故选B。
9.根据前文中的"my
smartphone
broke"可知,作者的智能手机坏了。根据下段首句中的"as
soon
as
I
got
my
smartphone
back
I
would
be
one
of
those
people
once
again"可知,作者会再次拿回智能手机。综合上下文信息可推知,智能手机坏了之后需要返修——返回到商家或厂家修理。be
sent
off"送去,拿去,寄去"。故选C。
10.参见上题解析。repair"修理,维修"。
11.根据上句可知,作者的智能手机坏了,返修需要一周左右的时间。这期间,作者只好找出原来的"旧"手机凑合凑合。故选D。
12.旧手机只能发"信息"、接打电话和玩一个游戏。故选B。
13.不能上网,就无法持续不断地获得有关朋友或名人的"最新消息",即最新的"更新"。故选C。接下来的"the
latest"是提示信息。
14.不能上网,自然就没有以前那么累,休息得好,体力精力"恢复得好",精神焕发。故选D。
15.get
across"使理解,(使)被接受";look
after"照顾,照看";take
in"吸收,领会,欺骗,接纳";think
about"考虑,琢磨"。手机不能上网,作者就可以多花些时间来观光、欣赏周围的风景。此处take
in
my
surroundings意为"欣赏周围的风景"。
16.此处指作者可以更多地享受在伦敦的时间。
17.上段主要讲述作者智能手机坏了之后,使用旧手机不能上网,反而获得了难得的清静。本段笔锋转到如果智能手机修好了,自己就会又回到以前泡在网上的原地。本段与上段为转折关系,故选A。
18.be
opposed
to"反对";be
equal
to"胜任……";be
addicted
to"沉溺于";be
blind
to"对……视而不见"。以前,智能手机能够上网,作者"迷恋于"上网获得每个人的动向、玩游戏或上社交网站等。故选C。
19.根据语境,作者还会把时间"浪费"在玩游戏、上社交网站上等。waste
time
(in)
doing
sth."浪费时间在做某事上"。
20.对比智能手机和旧手机的利与弊,作者倾向于选择旧手机,保持一份远离网络的清静。根据前半句中的"go
back
to
using
the
basic
phone"可知,作者决定"忘记"自己已拿回智能手机。

Traditionally7.

cut9.
the10.

解析:
本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了农历二月二时中国的传统风俗。
1.
which考査定语从句。分析该句结构可知,空处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词为"Dragon
Heads-raising
Day",空处在从句中作主语,故用which引导该定语从句。
2.
raising考查非谓语动词。该句主语“The
dragon
"和动词raise之间是逻辑上的主谓关系,在此处作伴随状语,故用其现在分词形式。
3.
their考查代词。空处修饰后面的名词"heads",故用形容词性物主代词their,表示"它们的头"。
4.
is
burning考查固定用法。根据常识并结合语境可知,大概就是这个时候,大地生机勃勃。此处考查固定用法be
bursting
with
sth.,表示"充满某物”;且该句主语为"the
earth",为第三人称单数,且此处叙述的为客观情况,故谓语动词用is。故填is
bursting。
5.would
pray/prayed考查动词的时态。该处表示在古代人们在二月二将要做的动作,故用过去将来时;根据该句的时间状语"In
ancient
China"可知,该处陈述的是发生在中国古代的事情,故也可用一般过去时。
6.
Traditionally?考查副词。空处修饰整个句子,故用traditional的副词形式。
7.
foods考查名词的单复数。根据该句中的"include
spring
pancakes,
jiaozi
and
pigs’
heads"可知,这一天人们吃多种食物,且谓语动词"include"为复数,故空处用food的复数形式。
8.cut考查固定用法。分析该句结构可知,此处考查固定用法get
sth.
done,表示"使某事发生"。
9.the考查冠词。根据语境可知,该处特指“河北的乡下”,
故用定冠词the。
10.
that考查主语从句。分析该句结构可知,该句中的“It"为形式主语,真正主语是空处引导的主语从句;且该从句为陈述句,故用that引导该主语从句。

解析:
1.?句意:今天,我要谈谈有关我父亲马修的事情,他是我的偶像,talk
to意为“和……交谈”,talk
about意为“谈论……”。
结合句意,应把to改为about。
2.?句意:我崇拜父亲的原因是他每天都是带着微笑开始新的一天,
that
he
starts
every
day
with
smile
是表语从句,该从句结构完整,故要用that引导该从句.
3.?smile意为“微笑”,是可数名词。结合语境,该处应在smile前加不定冠词a。
4.?happiness
是名词,作
brings
的宾语。故把happy改为happiness。
5.?句意:多年以来,他一直在细心地照顾我们。since引导时间状语,主句要用现在完成进行时,且主语he和look
after之间是主动关系,故该处应用现在完成进行时态。因此,应将looked改为looking。
6.?句意:他经常鼓励我们要一直坚持,不要放弃。由语境可知,
该句中的it无指代对象,多余,应删除。
7.?really是副词,修饰动词care。故把real改为really。
8.?句意:我认为他是一个真正充满同情心和细心的人。根据句意,compassion和carefulness是并列关系,不是选择关系,故把or改为and。
9.?由上文语境可知,该文是对作者父亲的客观介绍,故该句应用一般现在时态。且主语为第三人称单数,故把had改为has。
10.?quality意为“品质”,是可数名词,前面有many修饰,故把quality改为qualities。
