【题目】阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

The more advanced technology becomes, the more it seems to have control over our lives. We shop, work, play, search for information and seek 1 (chat) with each other online. Yet people are not arguing about this astonishing condition. It 2 (believe) that people have readily embraced technology, seeking only the benefits but 3 (ignore) its drawbacks.

It does not matter whether your home is in a 4 (noise) downtown or in the remote countryside. If you have a screen 5 it can pick up a signal, your mind is still in the same placeless place. This place is the zone 6 your mind will go when you stare at a screen, and it feels like your mind stops thinking.

Recent developments in technology also led to a decline in normal social behaviors. In past ages, you could walk around town for a whole day without seeing all the people you know. Now, everyone you know is 7 arm’s reach, taking that certain psychological feeling out of seeing people. You can see them every second of every day, and hear nearly every single thought of theirs just as they hear 8 (you).

In 9 (conclude), modern technology can be a double-edged sword. They do have their advantages, but they can change our lives 10 (complete).

【答案】

1to chat

2is believed

3ignoring

4noisy

5and

6where

7within

8yours

9conclusion

10completely

【解析】

这是一篇议论文。文章主要论述了现代技术是一把双刃剑。它们确实有自己的优势,但它们可以彻底改变我们的生活。

1考查固定短语。句意:我们在网上购物、工作、娱乐、搜索信息和聊天。固定短语seek to do sth.“试图做;设法做某事”,故填to chat

2考查固定句式。句意:人们相信,人们已经欣然接受了技术,只追求它的好处而忽略了它的缺点。固定句式It is believed that…“人们相信……”,故填is believed

3考查非谓语动词。句意同上。本空与上文seeking only the benefits构成并列非谓语结构,故填ignoring

4考查形容词。句意:不管你的家是在闹市还是在偏远的农村。downtown为名词需要形容词修饰,故填noisy

5考查连词。句意:如果你有一个屏幕,它可以接收到一个信号,你的思想仍然在同一个地方。结合上下文语境可知为承接关系,故填and

6考查定语从句连接词。句意:当你盯着屏幕的时候,你的大脑会进入这个区域,你会觉得大脑停止思考了。本句为定语从句修饰先行词place,且先行词在从句中做地点状语,故填where

7考查固定短语。句意:现在,你认识的每个人都在你的触手可及的范围内,把那种特定的心理感受带离与人交往。固定短语within arm’s reach“伸手可及的范围内”,故填within

8考查物主代词。句意:你每时每刻都能看到他们,几乎能听到他们的每一个想法,就像他们听到你的一样。此处做hear的宾语需要用名词性物主代词,故填yours

9考查固定短语。句意:总之,现代技术是一把双刃剑。固定短语in conclusion“总之”,故填conclusion

10考查副词。句意:它们确实有自己的优势,但它们可以彻底改变我们的生活。修饰动词change应用副词形式,故填completely

定语从句的关系词的选择可考虑以下三点:

(1)一看先行词的意义,即分清先行词是指人、指物、时间、地点还是原因(如指物时不能用whowhom,指人时通常不用which)

(2)二看关系词的句法功能,即分清关系词是担任什么句子成分,是作主语还是宾语、是作定语还是状语等(如作定语通常用whose,有时也用which;作状语要用when, where, why)

(3)三看定语从句的种类,即分清是限制性定语从句还是非限制性定语从句(thatwhy通常不引导非限制性定语从句)

如第六小题,句意:当你盯着屏幕的时候,你的大脑会进入这个区域,你会觉得大脑停止思考了。本句为定语从句修饰先行词place,且先行词在从句中做地点状语,故填where

【题目】 Can you imagine being a billionaire at the age of 21? Entrepreneur (企业家), social media star and model Kylie Jenner has done just that. According to the business magazine Forbes, Ms Jenner has become the world’s youngest self-made billionaire. She is so successful that she became a billionaire two years younger than Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg.

I don’t have any inherited (通过继承得到的) money, but I have had a lot of help and a huge platform,” Jenner told Forbes when talking about her billionaire status. “I didn't expect anything.

【题目】 I recently received an e-mail from a wise speaker. In his e-mail, he pointed out some obstacles that lie ahead on the way to success. 1

Laziness. Even with a right goal and the courage to pursue it, your efforts will be in vain unless you're willing to take actions. 2 Post your visions and plans in your bedroom, bathroom and office. Share them with others. In that case, everyone could be your supervisor. Make yourself responsible and become the master of your destiny.

Doubt. 3 Life and work can be hard and even cruel. Remember, the race is not for the smartest but for those who don't give up. Rather than allowing doubt to stand in your path, you owe it to yourself to remain confident in your plan. 4

Dishonesty. As you begin to be successful, you'll tend to lie, exaggerate(夸大), and cheat in order to move your agenda forward. However, taking the easy way of dishonesty will make you become the person you hate. 5 True success comes when you are a person of your word, when you have a pure conscience(良心),and when you have not cheated others on your way to the top.

A. Only the brave can overcome this first obstacle.

B. His thoughts were so deep and insightful that I edited them.

C. Write down your goals and the action steps you'll take to pursue those goals.

D. In the end, it causes far more problems than taking the risk of telling the truth.

E. Adjust it as needed along the way, but always know that success will ultimately be yours.

F. Once you've made a decision, doubt is a worm that eats away at your ability to succeed.

G. If you can't experience gratitude, you might as well have stayed exactly where you started.

【题目】Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words, Use your own words as far as possible.

If someone you know asks you nosy (爱管闲事的) questions, then you are not obliged to answer if you don’t want to. Here it is more important that you have some polite brush-off (拒绝), but it is still not rude for you to refuse.

If you think they shouldn’t have asked the question like ‘How much money do you earn?’, then I strongly recommend looking very shocked and saying ‘I can’t believe you just asked me that!’ and either leaving them to get out of it or moving on yourself to another subject. If they try to press you by saying ‘I was just interested…’. Then you can keep the shocked look and say ‘I’ m not telling you that with as much emphasis as you like on the ‘you’.

But what if the question isn’t quite so unforgivable? Then you need a more smiling response: ‘I can’t possibly tell you that’ or ‘I’m not telling anyone that’ or ‘Wouldn’t you like to know?’ But you must stand firm, because otherwise they’ll never learn and will keep expecting you to tell them your innermost secrets. There is certainly never any need to tell your secrets just because someone else told theirs.

There are questions that seem perfectly reasonable- ‘Are you planning to move?’, ‘Are you going to go back to work?’, ‘Are you going on holiday this year?’-but if answered truthfully might lead to unexpected revelations of something bad. Here you are free to tell white lies and say ‘We don’t know/ haven’t decided yet/ haven’t really thought about it’. Looking vague and changing the subject is the key here. If the question was reasonable, then it’s polite to embarrass the asker as little as possible-they were probably only making conversation in the first place.
