Looking
into
the
Future
阅读理解
A
It
is
quite
apparent
that
competition
surrounds
every
aspect
of
human
life
whether
in
the
United
States
or
the
Amazon
rainforest.
Without
it
we
would
not
have
grown
into
primates
(灵长类动物).
Or
we
would
probably
still
be
struggling
to
sharpen
a
bronze
tool
while
crawling
around
on
four
legs
in
search
of
meat.
Without
competition,
Columbus
wouldn't
have
discovered
America
and
Edison
would
never
have
invented
the
light
bulb.
Friendship,
like
all
relationships
between
two
people,
involves
competition.
It
isn't
competition
in
a
traditional
sense
because
there
are
no
goals
to
be
scored
and
no
prize.
Perhaps
the
ecological
definition—the
simultaneous
(同时的)
demand
by
two
or
more
organisms
for
limited
environmental
resources,
such
as
nutrinents,
living
space,
or
light—better
explains
it.
As
in
nature,
high
school
life
is
governed
by
a
set
of
laws,
similar
to
a
shortened
version
of
Darwin's
theory
of
evolution,
overpopulation,
and
competition.
There
is
an
abundance
of
high
school
students
and
to
distinguish
them,
ranking
and
categorizing
(分类)
take
place.
In
high
school,
friendships
learn
to
coexist
with
competition
even
though
at
times
the
relationship
is
rough.
In
fact,
in
some
circumstance,
competition
is
too
much
of
a
burden
for
a
friendship
to
bear,
causing
it
to
fall
apart.
College
admission
is
the
final
high
school
objective.
Four
years
of
hard
work
is
to
achieve
good
grades,
and
a
student's
fate
is
determined
not
only
by
these
achievements,
but
by
the
records
of
thousands
of
other
seniors
trying
to
achieve
a
similar
recognition.
Nevertheless,
by
necessity,
competition
between
students
exists
in
all
aspects
of
high
school
life.
It
sets
and
improves
the
standards
in
everything
from
sports
to
schoolwork.
A
healthy,
friendly
competition
can
have
only
benefits,
but
when
it
becomes
too
fierce,
jealousy
(妒忌)
can
tear
friendships
apart.
Yet,
despite
all
this,
without
competition,
we
would
be
lost.
本文是一篇说明文,介绍了竞争推动了人类社会的发展以及如何在竞争和友谊中寻求平衡。
1.What
does
the
ecological
definition
mainly
explain?
A.How
to
win
the
competition.
B.What
competition
exactly
is.
C.What
the
result
of
competition
is.
D.How
friends
compete
with
each
other.
答案:B
解析:细节理解题。根据第二段中的“It
isn't
competition
in
a
traditional
sense
because
there
are
no
goals
to
be
scored
and
no
prize.
Perhaps
the
ecological
definition—the
simultaneous
(同时的)
demand
by
two
or
more
organisms
for
limited
environmental
resources,
such
as
nutrinents,
living
space,
or
light—better
explains
it.”可知,这不是传统意义上的竞争,因为没有目标,没有奖励,或许生态定义能更好地解释竞争是什么,两个破折号之间解释了竞争的生态定义。故B项正确。
2.According
to
the
writer,
what
causes
the
high
school
students
to
compete?
A.They
know
the
laws
of
nature
well.
B.Friendship
is
a
burden
for
them.
C.The
number
of
them
is
too
large.
D.They
are
divided
into
different
groups.
答案:C
解析:细节理解题。根据第三段中的“There
is
an
abundance
of
high
school
students
and
to
distinguish
them,
ranking
and
categorizing
(分类)
take
place.”可知,造成高中生竞争的原因是高中生数量过于庞大,故C项正确。
3.Which
best
describes
the
relationship
of
friendship
and
competition?
A.Friendship
is
always
based
on
competition.
B.Competition
is
a
result
of
lost
friendship.
C.Competition
is
terribly
harmful
to
friendships.
D.The
degree
of
competition
is
vital
to
friendship.
答案:D
解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“A
healthy,
friendly
competition
can
have
only
benefits,
but
when
it
becomes
too
fierce,
jealousy
(妒忌)
can
tear
friendships
apart.”可知,健康、友好的竞争能带来好处,但当竞争过于激烈时,妒忌会把友谊撕裂,由此推知竞争的程度对友谊至关重要,故D项正确。
4.What
does
the
author
think
of
“competition”?
A.Competition
is
certain
to
happen
at
school.
B.The
result
of
competition
are
out
of
control.
C.Competition
becomes
fierce
in
high
school.
D.Friendship
is
not
as
important
as
competition
at
school.
答案:A
解析:细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“Nevertheless,
by
necessity,
competition
between
students
exists
in
all
aspects
of
high
school
life.”可知,作者认为学生之间的竞争必然存在于高中生活的各个方面,故A项正确。
B
Parents
should
ban
electronic
media
during
mealtimes
and
after
bedtime
as
part
of
a
comprehensive
“family
media
use
plan”,
according
to
new
recommendations
from
the
American
Academy
of
Pediatrics.
“Excessive
media
use
is
associated
with
obesity,
poor
school
performance,
aggression
and
lack
of
sleep,”
said
Marjorie
Hogan,
co?author
of
the
new
policy.
Families
should
have
a
no?device
rule
during
meals
and
after
bedtime,
the
guidelines
say.
Parents
should
also
set
family
rules
covering
the
use
of
the
Internet,
cellphones,
including,
perhaps,
which
sites
can
be
visited,
and
who
can
be
called.
The
policy
also
restated
the
existing
recommendations:
Kids
should
limit
the
amount
of
screen
time
for
entertainment
to
less
than
two
hours
per
day;
children
younger
than
2
shouldn't
have
any
TV
or
Internet
exposure.
Also,
televisions
and
Internet?accessible
devices
should
be
kept
out
of
kids'
bedrooms.
Doctors
say
parents
need
to
obey
the
family
rules,
too,
to
model
healthy
behavior.
That,
some
say,
may
be
the
toughest
part.
“If
you
go
to
any
restaurant,
Family
3.0
is
Mom
and
Dad
on
their
devices
and
the
kids
on
theirs,”
says
Donald,
a
pediatrician
and
an
AAP
spokesman.
“Who
is
talking
to
each
other?”
Children
aged
from
8
to
18
spent
an
average
of
7
hours
and
38
minutes
a
day
consuming
media
for
fun,
including
TV,
music,
video
games
and
other
content
in
2009,
according
to
a
2010
report
from
the
Kaiser
Family
Foundation.
The
report
was
based
on
a
survey
of
2002
third
through
twelfth
graders,
702
of
whom
completed
a
seven?day
media
use
diary.
That
was
up
about
an
hour
and
17
minutes
a
day
from
five
years
earlier.
About
two?thirds
of
8
to
18?year?olds
said
they
had
no
rules
on
the
amount
of
time
they
spent
watching
TV,
playing
video
games
or
using
the
computer,
the
Kaiser
report
found.
Use
of
mobile
devices
by
young
kids
has
soared.
A
new
report
from
Common
Sense
Media,
a
child?advocacy
group
based
in
San
Francisco,
found
that
17%
of
children
8
and
younger
use
mobile
devices
daily,
up
from
8%
in
2011.
本文属于说明文阅读,作者通过这篇文章主要向我们描述了一篇调查报告,孩子的肥胖、学业不佳、具有攻击性和睡眠不足通常与过度使用电子媒介有关,因此,家长应该采取一定的措施禁止孩子在就餐时和就寝后使用电子媒介。

the
family
rules,
too,
to
model
healthy
behavior.”可知,家长要想禁止孩子在就餐时和就寝后使用电子媒介,也应遵守家庭规则,以身作则,塑造健康的行为方式,可知父母自己要遵守家庭规则,这是养育孩子的关键。故选B项。

can
be
inferred

use
diary.
D.Kids
are
spending
less
and
less
time
using
media
for
fun.
答案:A
解析:推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的
“About
two?thirds

8
to
18?year?olds
said
they
had
no

games
or
using
the

4.What
can
be
the
best
title
of
the
passage?
A.Consuming
media
for
fun
is
a
nature
of
kids
B.No
use,
no
worry
C.Measures
should
be
taken
to
stop
children's
overuse
of
electronic
media
D.Electronic
devices
threaten
the

the
country“在这个国家”。故答案为the。
2.will_set
解析:考查时态。句意:在未来的五年里,熊猫绿色能源将在全国各地建立各种各样的发电厂。根据Over

plants“发电厂”,是名词,由形容词修饰,故答案为various。
4.that/which
解析:考查定语从句。句意:第一家熊猫发电厂最近在中国大同建成,它看起来像一只快乐的熊猫,眼睛朝不同的方向看。此处eyes是先行词,在后面的定语从句中作主语,故答案为that/which。
5.are_made
解析:考查被动语态。句意:熊猫的黑色部分由单晶硅太阳能电池制成,灰色和白色部分由薄膜太阳能电池组成。此处句子主语parts
和make之间是一种被动关系,且指现在的情况,所以句子用一般现在时态的被动语态,故答案为are
made。
6.of
解析:考查固定词组。句意:熊猫的黑色部分由单晶硅太阳能电池制成,灰色和白色部分由薄膜太阳能电池组成。固定词组:be
composed
of“由……组成”。故答案为of。
7.enthusiasm
解析:考查名词。句意:将太阳能电站设计成熊猫的造型,旨在激发青少年对太阳能应用的兴趣和热情。名词所有格修饰名词,故答案为enthusiasm。
8.To_deal_
解析:考查动词不定式作目的状语。句意:为了应对气候变化,我们不仅要呼吁政府和企业,而且要让下一代人参与进来,从而为绿色未来共同努力。此处是动词不定式作目的状语,故答案为To
deal。
9.companies
解析:考查名词复数。句意:为了应对气候变化,我们不仅要呼吁政府和企业,而且要让下一代人参与进来,从而为绿色未来共同努力。此处用名词复数与之并列。故答案为companies。
10.making
解析:考查现在分词作结果状语。句意:为了应对气候变化,我们不仅要呼吁政府和企业,而且要让下一代人参与进来,从而为绿色未来共同努力。此处是现在分词作状语表示自然而然的结果,故答案为making。

Looking
into
the
Future
Ⅰ.阅读理解
It
began
as
a
game:
High
school
and
college
students
study?
ing
computer
technology
figured
out
they
could
use
personal
computers
to
break
into
telephone
company
computers
and
make
free,
long?distance
telephone
calls.
These
young
computer
talents
soon
gained
the
name
“hackers”.
Police
arrested
a
few
hackers,
but
many
went
on
to
even
more
complex
hacking.
One
of
them
was
arrested
for
making
illegal
telephone
calls
and
later
he
used
a
phone
to
change
a
police
officer's
credit
records
to
get
back
at
the
officer
for
arresting
him.
He
also
used
a
computer
to
change
his
college
records
to
give
himself
better
grades.
As
hackers
gained
experience
they
began
invading
computers
at
banks,
airlines
and
other
businesses.
In
one
case
a
hacker
instructed
an
airline's
computer
to
give
him
free
airplane
tickets.
The
US
government
is
worried
that
hackers
may
break
into
its
networks
of
defense
computers.
The
government's
secrets
are
easily
attacked
because
thousands
of
government
computers
are
connected
by
telephone
lines
that
hackers
can
get
into.
In
November
1988,
a
college
student
entered
a
US
Defense
Department
computer
network
called
Arpanet.
The
hacker
injected
a
computer
program
that
made
copies
of
itself
throughout
Arpanet.
Some
hackers
use
viruses
to
destroy
all
the
data
in
a
computer.
But
in
this
case,
government
officials
shut
down
the
network
before
the
program
reached
every
computer
in
the
system.
Shutting
down
the
system
angered
many
researchers
who
were
using
the
computers.
The
hacker
turned
himself
in
to
the
police
and
he
was
charged
with
a
crime.
The
incident
put
the
spotlight
on
computer
hacking
in
the
United
States.
Many
companies
have
hired
experts
to
protect
their
computers
from
hackers,
and
many
computer
experts
now
advise
companies
on
how
to
protect
their
computers.
The
US
government
believes
foreign
governments
have
hired
hackers
to
try
to
break
into
top?secret
defense
computers.
Experts
disagree
over
whether
a
computer
network
can
ever
be
safe
from
hacking.
But
in
the
future,
some
of
the
most
outstanding
minds
in
the
US
will
be
working
to
frustrate
the
attempts
of
computer
hackers.
本文是一篇说明文,介绍了黑客的起源,以及他们非法侵入各个领域的网络系统的犯罪行为。
1.What
did
the
first
hackers
do?
A.They
broke
into
government
computers.
B.They
destroyed
airplane
ticket
systems.
C.They
played
computer
games.D.They
made
free
phone
calls.
答案:D
解析:考查推理判断。根据第一段“It
began
as
a
game:...figured
out
they
could
use
personal
computers
to
break
into
telephone
company
computers
and
make
free,
long?distance
telephone
calls.
These
young
computer
talents
soon
gained
the
name
‘hackers’.”可知它起初是一个游戏:学习计算机的高中生和大学生发现他们可以使用个人电脑闯入电话公司的电脑并拨打免费的长途电话。这些年轻的计算机人才很快就被称为“黑客”。这说明这些高中生和大学生是第一批黑客,他们拨打了免费的电话。故选D。
2.Why
can
US
government
computers
be
easily
hacked
into?
A.They
have
no
defense
systems.
B.They
are
connected
by
telephone
lines.
C.They
are
partly
accessible
to
the
public.
D.They
lack
complex
processing
programs.
答案:B
解析:考查细节理解。根据第四段中的“The
government's
secrets
are
easily
attacked
because
thousands
of
government
computers
are
connected
by
telephone
lines
that
hackers
can
get
into.”可知政府的秘密很容易被攻击,因为成千上万的政府计算机通过黑客可以进入的电话线被连接起来。故选B。
3.What
happened
to
the
government
computers
in
November
1988?
A.They
lost
all
of
the
important
data.
B.They
were
shut
down
by
researchers.
C.They
were
invaded
by
a
college
student.
D.They
got
totally
ruined
by
a
computer
program.
答案:C
解析:考查细节理解。根据第五段中的“In
November
1988,
a
college
student
entered
a
US
Defense
Department
computer
network
called
Arpanet.
The
hacker
injected
a
computer
program
that
made
copies
of
itself
throughout
Arpanet.”可知1988年11月,一名大学生进入美国国防部的计算机网络Arpanet并注入了一个计算机程序,这个程序可以通过Arpanet进行自我复制。也就是说,美国政府的电脑被一个大学生入侵了。故选C。
4.What
did
companies
decide
to
do
to
protect
their
computer
systems?
A.Employ
computer
talents.
B.Build
secret
defense
systems.
C.Ask
the
government
for
help.D.Collect
and
analyze
the
data
of
hackers.
答案:A
解析:考查细节理解。根据倒数第三段中的“Many
companies
have
hired
experts
to
protect
their
computers
from
hackers,
and
many
computer
experts
now
advise
companies
on
how
to
protect
their
computers.
”可知许多公司聘请了专家来保护他们的计算机免受黑客攻击并且许多计算机专家如今会建议公司如何保护他们的计算机。故选A。
Ⅱ.七选五
Lots
of
people
give
you
advice
on
overcoming
fear.
__1__
However,
I
want
to
tell
you
that
a
world
without
fear
would
be
more
dangerous,
less
rewarding.
So
we
want
to
treat
fear
as
a
friend?Here
are
three
reasons.
__2__
Think
about
it.
Do
you
get
more
nervous
when
you
meet
the
girl
(or
guy)
of
your
dreams?Which
is
more
fearful,
talking
to
the
boss
of
your
company
or
to
some
of
your
friends?
__3__
If
you
didn't
have
fear
to
guide
you,
you
might
not
know
that!
Not
so
bad,
right?
Next,
fear
encourages
us
to
take
action.
Fear
is
a
call
to
action.
In
the
past,
our
ancestors
didn't
run
away
in
fear
when
they
saw
a
tiger
running
toward
them
but
tried
to
kill
it
for
food.
Now,
most
of
us
don't
face
serious
danger
like
hungry
tigers
every
day,
but
we
do
face
serious
bosses
or
public
speaking.
So,
what
can
we
do?__4__
Lastly,
fear
lets
you
know
you
are
alive.
Why
do
we
like
roller
coasters?__5__Same
for
horror
movies.
So
fear
can
guide
you
towards
what's
important
for
you
and
encourage
you
to
take
action
to
improve.
Don't
we
all
need
that
kind
of
friend?
A.Don't
fear
to
be
wrong.
B.It
frightens
us
in
a
mostly
safe
way.
C.Imagine
what
life
would
be
like
without
fear.
D.The
first
is
that
fear
is
an
excellent
guide
to
opportunity.
E.They
say
if
you
can
overcome
fear,
you
will
be
successful.
F.Let
fear
provide
us
with
the
energy
to
do
what
needs
to
be
done.
G.Fear
is
showing
you
what
is
important
and
what
matters
to
you.
本文是一篇说明文,现实生活中很多人在想办法克服恐惧,但是,恐惧也是有好的一面的,它能帮助我们成长。作者就此展开谈论,揭示了恐惧的好处,告诉了我们恐惧其实并不可怕。
1.E 解析:考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据空后“However,
I
want

tell
you
that
a
world
without
fear

Looking
into
the
Future
Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
teenager
needs
to
have
a
sense
of
independence
in
their
life
to
feel
secure(安全的).
To
some
teenagers
independence
means
a
lot
to
them,
and
I
think
that
some
parents
don't
allow
their
teenagers
enough
independence.
Independence
has
something
to
do
with
freedom.
Some
kids
are
not
allowed
to
go
anywhere
alone,
and
the
only
thing
their
schedule
includes
is
going
to
school,
coming
home,
going
to
sleep,
and
repeating
the
process
the
next
day.
Parents
tend
to
be
afraid
that
their
kids
can
get
hurt
if
they
go
outside
into
the
world.
But
if
parents
control
their
kids
too
much,
they
may
never
learn
to
live
on
their
own.
The
best
way
for
a
teenager
to
learn
a
lesson
is
through
experience.
I
think
it
is
beneficial
for
teenagers
to
have
freedom.
Teenagers'
lack
of
freedom
can
also
stop
them
from
having
good
friendship
at
school.
Some
might
say
this
is
a
good
thing,
because
it
helps
them
focus
more
on
their
school
work.
I
argue
that
this
can
only
discourage
them
not
to
do
their
school
work.
Some
parents
do
not
allow
their
children
to
be
around
their
friends
outside
the
school,
thinking
that
this
will
get
them
into
trouble.
But
I
don't
think
so.
Instead,
isn't
this
a
good
reason
for
parents
to
get
their
children
a
cellphone?
Cellphones
allow
teenagers
to
stay
in
touch
with
their
parents,
and
communicate
with
friends.
Privacy
is
another
issue
between
parents
and
their
teenagers.
Teenagers
tend
to
enjoy
relaxation
by
themselves
in
their
own
room.
This
also
gives
them
a
sense
of
independence.
It
often
annoys
teenagers
when
their
parents
enter
their
room
when
they
are
not
home.
I
know
that
my
mom
always
goes
in
my
room
when
I'm
not
home,
and
this
has
brought
me
to
the
point
where
I
have
asked
many
times
to
get
a
lock
on
my
door.
这是一篇说明文。独立对青少年很重要,然而许多父母没有让孩子有足够的独立。独立与自由有关,青少年有自由是有益的,青少年缺乏自由会影响他们在学校建立良好的友谊。此外,有自己的隐私空间会给青少年一种独立感。
1.What
is
the
main
idea
of
the
second
paragraph?
A.Kids
know
how
to
live
independently.
B.Some
parents
allow
their
kids
no
freedom.
C.It
benefits
teenagers
to
have
freedom.
D.Kids
have
a
dull
routine
every
day.
答案:C
解析:段落大意题。第二段作者提出独立与自由有关,她指出很多父母过分控制自己的孩子,这样孩子永远不可能学会独立,她认为青少年有自由是有益的。也就是说青少年要独立就要有自由,青少年有自由是有好处的。故选C项。
2.In
the
opinion
of
the
author,
________.
A.parents
should
make
it
easy
for
kids
to
communicate
with
their

B.good
friendships
between
kids
harm
their
school
work
C.it
is
unnecessary
for
a
kid
to
have
a
cellphone
D.kids
should
focus
on
the
school
work
答案:A
解析:推理判断题。根据第三段中Instead,
isn't
this
a
good
reason
for
parents
to
get
their
children
a
cellphone?
Cellphones
allow
teenagers
to
stay
in
touch
with
their
parents,
and
communicate
with
friends.可知作者认为父母给孩子买手机可以让孩子和父母、朋友保持联系。这说明作者认为父母应该让孩子们能够轻易地与朋友交流。故选A项。
3.How
do
teenagers
usually
feel
when
their
parents
enter
their
rooms
in
their
absence?
A.Disappointed.
B.Lucky.
C.Angry.
D.Calm.
答案:C
解析:细节理解题。根据最后一段中It
often
annoys
teenagers
when
their
parents
enter
their
room
when
they
are
not
home.可知对于青少年来说,父母在他们不在家的时候进入他们的房间经常会惹恼他们。故选C。
4.The
author
hopes
to
have
her
door
locked
in
order
to
________.
A.keep
her
father
from
reading
her
dairy
B.prevent
her
mother
entering
her
room
C.protect
herself
from
any
harm
D.stop
thieves
from
going
in
答案:B
解析:细节理解题。根据最后一段I
know
that
my
mom
always
goes
in
my
room
when
I'm
not
home,
and
this
has
brought
me
to
the
point
where
I
have
asked
many
times
to
get
a
lock
on
my
door.可知作者的妈妈总是在她不在家的时候走进她的房间,这让她多次要求在她的门上加一把锁。这说明作者希望锁门是为了不让自己的妈妈进入自己的房间。故选B。
Ⅱ.七选五
To
someone
stuck
in
a
traffic
jam,
the
ability
to
fly
right
over
other
cars
seems
like
a
dream.
__1__
That
may
be
changing.
Nearly
a
dozen
companies
around
the
globe
are
competing
to
be
the
first
to
develop
a
flying
car.
One
of
the
ideas
being
developed
is
a
car
with
wings
that
unfold
for
flight.
But,
most
aren't
cars
at
all.
They
are
more
like
helicopters
and
are
operated
by
a
battery?powered
motor.
__2__
Companies
have
to
convince
the
government
that
the
flying
cars
are
safe.
They
will
also
need
longer?lasting
batteries.
And,
cities
will
have
to
figure
out
how
to
handle
thousands
of
flying
cars
in
the
sky.
Still,
some
companies
are
moving
forward.
__3__Especially
as
cities
grow
more
crowded
and
people
spend
more
time
stuck
in
traffic.
These
taxis
would
deliver
passengers
to
the
rooftops
of
office
buildings
during
rush
hours.
“In
as
little
as
10
years,
products
could
be
on
the
market
that
revolutionize
urban
travel
for
millions
of
people,”
said
Zach
Lovering.
He
is
the
leader
of
a
project
to
develop
a
self?flying
taxi
for
Airbus,
a
European
company
that
makes
airplanes.__4__
Although
Uber
doesn't
have
any
plans
to
develop

the
globe
are
competing
to
be
the
first
to
develop
a
flying
car.
(这也许正在改变。全球将近十几家公司正在竞争成为第一家开发飞车的公司。)可知之前也曾有人试图制造会飞的汽车,但从来没有成功。故F项符合语境。故选F。
2.G 解析:根据后文
Companies
have
to
convince
the
government
that
the
flying

as
cities
grow
more
crowded
and
people
spend
more
time
being

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。续写的词数应为150左右。
As
a
teacher,
my
daily
routine
includes
driving
to
a
new
school
almost
every
day
so
I'm
usually
unable
to
predict
the
day's
events,
good
or
bad!
On
one
particular
day,
I
was
teaching
in
a
very
difficult
class.
Some
of
the
schoolboys
didn't
finish
their
homework
on
time
and
that
really
annoyed
me.
I
was
managing
behavior
all
morning
and
by
lunch
time,
I
knew
I
needed
coffee
to
even
consider
surviving
the
afternoon.
So
on
my
lunch
time,
I
drove
to
a
nearby
plaza
to
get
a
cup
of
coffee.
There
I
had
a
wonderful
time
and
forgot
the
unpleasant
experience
in
the
morning
.
Upon
returning
to
the
car,
I
realized
I
had
locked
my
keys
and
my
phone
inside!
I
had
about
15
minutes
to
get
back
to
the
school
which
was
a
good
4?or?5?minute
drive
away.
I
considered
rushing
back,
but
it
was
winter,
and
I
thought
a
dirty
fall
on
ice
would
only
make
the
situation
much
worse.
So
I
ran
into
a
McDonald's
which
was
in
the
same
plaza
and
asked
the
man
at
the
counter
to
call
me
a
cab.The
man
happened
to
be
the
manager
of
the
restaurant.
I
briefly
explained
my
situation
to
him,
and
I
could
tell
by
the
look
in
his
eyes
that
he
empathized(同情).He
hurried
to
the
back
to
use
the
phone
while
I
paced
in
the
restaurant.
I
had
less
than
10
minutes
to
get
back
to
my
school
at
this
point.
The
manager
returned
only
to
tell
me
that
the
cab
company
had
put
him
on
hold
and
then
the
line
got
disconnected,
and
that
he
was
now
on
hold
again,
but
had
not
yet
been
able
to
request
the
cab
yet.
My
expression,
I
am
sure,
began
to
resemble
(像)some
combination
of
hopelessness
and
fear.
答案
Paragraph
1:
Without
a
thought,
the
manager
grabbed
his
coat
and
offered
to
drive
me
to
the
school.
Without
hesitation,
I
followed
him
into
his
car
and
made
it
back
into
my
classroom
with
2
minutes
to
spare
before
the
bell!
Upon
arriving
at
the
school,
I
thanked
this
man
endlessly.
Paragraph
2:
The
manager's
calm
behavior
and
kind
nature
made
me
think
he
was
probably
a
wonderful
manager
to
work
for,
and
also
a
wonderful
human
being
to
have
on
this
earth.
This
experience
makes
me
realize
that
out
of
every
seemingly
hopeless
situation,
there
is
the
opportunity
for
acts
of
kindness
to
transpire,
which
can
have
an
unimaginable
impact
on
those
who
receive
them.Unit

Looking
into
the
Future
Ⅰ.阅读理解
More
than
one
billion
young
people
risk
damaging
their
hearing
through
excessive
(过度的)
use
of
smartphones
and
other
audio
devices
(音频设备),
the
UN
warned
Tuesday,
proposing
new
safety
standards
for
safe
volume
levels.
In
order
to
safeguard
hearing,
the
World
Health
Organization
and
International
Telecommunications
Union
issued
a
voluntary
international
standard
for
the
manufacture
and
use
of
audio
devices.
Young
people
are
particularly
prone
to
get
risky
listening
habits.
Around
half
of
those
between
the
ages
of
12
and
35,
or
1.1
billion
people,
are
at
risk
due
to
“long
exposure
to
loud
sounds,
including
music
they
listen
to
through
personal
audio
devices”,
the
UN
health
agency
said.
Currently,
about
five
percent
of
the
global
population,
or
some
466
million
people,
including
34
million
children,
suffer
from
disabling
hearing
loss.
WHO
considers
a
volume
above
85
decibels
(分贝)
for
eight
hours
or
100
decibels
for
15
minutes
as
unsafe.
WHO
is
calling
for
parental
as
well
as
automatic
volume
controls
on
audio
devices
to
prevent
dangerous
use.
While
some
smartphones
and
other
audio
devices
already
offer
some
of
these
features,
the
UN
would
like
to
see
a
uniform
standard
used
to
help
protect
against
disabling
hearing
loss.
“Think
of
it
like
driving
on
a
highway,
but
without
a
speedometer
(速度计)
in
your
car
or
a
speed
limit,”
Shelly
Chadha
of
the
WHO
told
reporters
in
Geneva.
“What
we've
proposed
is
that
your
smartphones
come
fitted
with
a
speedometer,
with
a
measurement
system
which
tells
you
how
much
sound
you're
getting
and
tells
you
if
you
are
going
over
the
limit.”
这是一篇说明文。联合国于本周二发出警告,称有超过10亿的年轻人因过度使用智能手机和其他音频设备而面临听力受损的风险。为了保障听力,世界卫生组织和国际电信联盟发布了一项关于制造和使用音频设备的自愿国际标准。其中年轻人特别容易养成冒险的倾听习惯,世卫组织认为8小时内音量超过85分贝或15分钟内音量超过100分贝是不安全的。
1.What
does
the
underlined
word
“prone”
in
Paragraph
3
probably
mean?
A.Likely.
B.Addicted.
C.Willing.
D.Expected.
答案:A
解析:词义猜测题。根据下文Around
half
of
those
between
the
ages
of
12

35,
or
1.1
billion
people,
are
at
risk
due
to
“long
exposure
to
loud
sounds,
including
music
they
listen
to
through
personal
audio

the
UN
health
agency
said.(该联合国卫生机构表示,年龄在12岁至35岁之间的人群中,约有一半,即11亿人,由于“长时间暴露在嘈杂的声音中,包括他们通过个人音频设备收听的音乐”,面临听力丧失的危险。)可知,年轻人更倾向于养成冒险的倾听习惯。故可推测画线单词意思为“很可能;很可能的”。故选A。
2.How
do
Paragraphs
3
and
4
develop?
A.By
making
comparisons.
B.By
offering
examples.
C.By
analyzing
reasons.D.By
giving
figures.
答案:D
解析:推理判断题。根据第三段中Around
half
of
those
between
the
ages
of
12
and
35,
or
1.1
billion
people,
are
at
risk
due

400万儿童,患有致残性听力丧失。世卫组织认为8小时内音量超过85分贝或15分钟内音量超过100分贝是不安全的。)可知,第3和第4段是以列举数字的形式展开的。故选D。
3.Which
of
the
following
statements
is
true
according
to
the
passage?
A.Half
of
1.1
billion
people
are
getting
risky

habits.
B.About
466
million
children
are
suffering
from
hearing
loss.
C.A
volume
above
85
decibels
for
10
hours
or
120
decibels
for
15
minutes
is
unsafe.
D.A
uniform
standard
has
been
made
to
help
protect
against
disabling
hearing
loss.
答案:C
解析:细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句WHO
considers
a
volume
above
85
decibels
(分贝)
for
eight
hours
or
100
decibels
for
15
minutes
as
unsafe.(世卫组织认为8小时内音量超过85分贝或15分钟内音量超过100分贝是不安全的。)可知,音量超过85分贝8小时或100分贝15分钟是不安全的。故C选项正确。
4.Why
does
the
author
mention
“driving
on
the
highway”
in
the
last
paragraph?
A.To
indicate
it
is
dangerous
to
drive
on
the
highway.
B.To
suggest
a
speedometer
should
be
fitted
in
a
car.
C.To
show
how
a
smartphone
works
with
a
measure
system.
D.To
emphasize
that
it
is
necessary
to
fit
a
measure
system
in
smartphones.
答案:D
解析:推理判断题。根据下文What
we've
proposed
is
that
your
smartphones
come
fitted
with
a
speedometer,
with
a
measurement
system
which
tells
you
how
much
sound
you're
getting
and
tells
you
if
you
are
going
over
the
limit.(我们的建议是,你的智能手机应该配备一个速度计,这个测量系统可以告诉你听到了多少声音,并告诉你是否超过了限制。)可知,作者在最后一段提到“driving
on
the
highway”是为了强调有必要在智能手机上安装一个测量系统。故选D。
