【解析】

本文为说明文。文章说明美国主要的高速公路网络的状况。美国宽阔的现代道路通常都很平坦,保养得很好,很少有陡峭的曲线。这些高速公路一般都建在大城市的中心地带,在交通高峰期会变得拥挤不堪。然而经常有一些较老的、交通不太繁忙的乡村公路,虽然不太直,路程更长、速度更慢,但他们通常通向那些空气清新、风景优美的地方,司机可欣赏到怡人的风景。

1考查形容词辨析。句意:尽管这些宽阔的现代道路通常都很平坦,保养得很好......A. stable稳定的;B. splendid华丽的;C. smooth平坦的;D. completed完成的。根据下句“well maintained(道路养护得很好)”。既然养护得好,那前提条件应该是原来不错,所以选smooth“平坦的”,故选C

2考查形容词辨析。句意:虽然这些宽阔的现代道路通常都很平坦,保养得很好,很少有陡峭的曲线,...A. little (与不可数名词连用)不多的; (与不可数名词连用)少量的;B. few (与复数名词连用)不多,很少,(与复数名词连用)有些,几个; C. much许多,修饰不可数名词;D. many许多,修饰可数名词复数。前面的“although”引导的状语从句谈的都是公路好的、有利的方面。那么道路上弯道少也是有利的方面。弯道“sharp curves”是可数名词的复数,所以选few。故选B

3考查动词短语辨析。句意:大型公路经常经过风景区和有趣的小城镇。因为空格前有动词pass,因此四个选项比较的是与pass关的搭配的区别。A.pass to转到;B. (pass) into融入;C. (pass) over忽略;D. (pass ) by经过。根据语境及常识可知,此处是指公路要经过风景区及小镇,即pass by(经过),符合该句的语境。故选D

4考查动词辨析。名意:这些公路一般都连接大城市中心。A. lead通向;B. connect连接;C. collect收集;D. communicate交流。本句中的联系副词Furthermore说明本句是对上一句的进一步补充和信息的增加,由此可推测本句句义为高速公路不仅经过风景区和乡村,通常还“将庞大的都市中心区连接起来”。而lead必须与to连用才能表达这个意思。“connect”有连接之意,故正确答案为B

5考查形容词辨析。句意:这就意味着,在交通高峰时段,他们变得拥挤不堪,“快速、直达”的道路变成了一条非常缓慢的路线。A. large大的;B. fast快的;C. light轻的;D. heavy重的。这里的意思是“车辆多,交通拥挤”。heavy traffic是“交通拥挤”的意思。故填D

6考查副词辨析。句意:在离相对较新的“高速公路”不远的地方,经常有一些较旧、交通不太拥挤的公路穿过农村。A. and和;B. less更少;C. more更多;D. or或者。根据上下文可推测此处是指“交通不太拥挤”,空格应为less,因为“more heavily traveled”意为“车辆拥挤的”公路,与常识不符。前后对比,较少意思。故选B

7考查名词辨析。句意:这些非主干道路可以爬上陡峭的斜坡,沿着悬崖延伸,或又转下可怕的山坡。A. rocks岩石;B. cliffs悬崖;C. roads道路;D. paths小路。根据上文的slopes和下文的hillsides就可以断定这里需要一个表示路况不好的词,选项A rocks(岩石)意义不符,故只有cliffs “悬崖” 为正确答案。 故选B

8考查动词辨析。句意:这些非主干道路可以爬上陡峭的斜坡,沿着悬崖延伸,或又转下可怕的山坡,一直到达位于深谷中的城镇。A. lying位于;B. laying安放,产蛋;C. laidlay的过去式或过去分词;D. lied说谎的过去。lying意思是“坐落,位于”,是lie的现在分词和动名词形式。根据题目和选项可断定,此空应为towns的后置定语,由此可猜测句义为“位于深谷中的城镇”,“位于”lie是不及物动词,要用动词的ing形式做定语,而不能以过去分词的形式作定语,故正确答案为lie的现在分词形式lying。故选A

9考查定语从句。句意:通过这些不太直接的路线,路程更长、速度更慢,他们通常会通向那些空气清新、风景优美的地方。A. there那儿;B. when什么时候;C. which哪一个;D. where哪儿。分析句子可知,本句是定语从句,其中的place是先行词,在定语从句中作地点状语,此时要用关系副词where。故选D

10考查名词辨析。句意:司机有机会欣赏到人间清新、洁净的景色。A. view景色;B. variety种类;C. visit参观,拜访;D. virtue美德。根据上一句“they generally go to places where the air is clean and the scenery is beautiful”可知,道路通向那些空气清新、风景优美的地方,自然司机有机会欣赏到清新而洁净的景象(view),故选A

完形填空解题技巧

巧解完形填空题,考生必须进行通篇考虑,掌握大意,综合所学词法、句法和常识进行分析判断。为帮助考生能更好地解答完形填空题,在这里介绍几种解题技巧。

1. 复现解题法:这类题多为同义词、近义词和反义词的复现或同义词、近义词和反义词异形复现的形式。这种测试手法主要是考查考生的整体篇章意识和上下文推断能力。

2. 语法结构法: 这类题需要考生有较为扎实的语法基础知识,能够从句式的结构上辨别出要填相关的关联词、连词、副词、形容词或相应的动词,当然还要考虑到主谓一致的关系等语法知识要点。如第9小题,根据句意“通过这些不太直接的路线,路程更长、速度更慢,他们通常会通向那些空气清新、风景优美的地方。”分析句子可知,本句是定语从句,其中的place是先行词,在定语从句中作地点状语,此时要用关系副词where。故选D

3. 语境信息解题法:这类题主要是通过短文中上下语境所透露的信息进行解题,首先要正确理解所给信息,在进行合理分析和推断,这种语境信息一定要遵循逻辑概念,符合运动规律,时态的交替,以及特殊场合下的应急合理判断。如第1小题考查形容词辨析。句意:尽管这些宽阔的现代道路通常都很平坦,保养得很好......A. stable稳定的;B. splendid华丽的;C. smooth平坦的;D. completed完成的。根据下句“well maintained(道路养护得很好)”。既然养护得好,那前提条件应该是原来不错,所以选smooth“平坦的”,故选C

4. 固定搭配解题法:这类题与语法结构题有点类似,但主要是惯用搭配,讲究词与词的搭配,涉及到关联词、动词、副词、形容词、名词和短语等。如第3小题考查语境及固定搭配。句意:大型公路经常经过风景区和有趣的小城镇。因为空格前有动词pass,因此四个选项比较的是与pass关的搭配的区别。A.passto转到;B. (pass) into变成;C. (pass) over忽略;D. (pass ) by经过。根据语境及常识可知,此处是指公路要经过风景区及小镇,即pass by(经过),符合该句的语境。故选D

5. 逻辑语气解题法:这类题主要是通过分了解全文的人物、时间、地点等信息之后,再分析句子与句子之间的关系,段落与段落之间的关系来解题。这种逻辑语气主要包含并列、递进、因果、转折和委婉语气等等。这类题的选项多为连词、副词或具有连词意义的各类短语。

【题目】 University of Pennsylvania researchers say that for the first time they have linked social media use to increases in depression and loneliness. The idea that social media is anything but social when it comes to mental health has been talked about for years, but not many studies have managed to actually link the two. To do that, Penn researchers, led by psychologist Melissa Hunt, designed a study that focused on WeChat, Snapchat and Instagram.

The study was conducted with 143 participants, who before they began, completed a mood survey and sent along photos of their battery screens, showing how often they were using their phones to access social media. “we set out to do a study which attempts to imitate real life.” Hunt said.

The study divided the participants into two groups: The first group was allowed to maintain their normal social media habits. The other, the control group, was restricted to 10 minutes per day on social media. The restrictions were put in place for three weeks and then tested for now comes such as fear of missing out, anxiety, depression and loneliness.

The results showed a very clear link between social media use and increased levels of depression and loneliness.” Using less social media then you normally do would lead to significant decreases in both depression and loneliness,” Hunt said.

Social media invites what Hunt calls “downward social comparison.” “When you’re online, it can sometimes seem that everyone else is cooler and having more fun and included in more things and you’re left out,” Hunt said. And that’s just generally discouraging. “Every minute you spend online is a minute you are not doing your work or not meeting a friend for dinner or having a deep conversation with your roommate.” And these real life activities are the ones that you can encourage self-esteem and self-worth, Hunt added.

“People are on their devices, and that’s not going to change,” she said. But as in life, a bit of control goes a long way.

1What can we learn from the first paragraph?

A.Social media is a good tool for social activity.

B.Social media can’t increase people’s social activities.

C.Social media is the cause of depression and loneliness.

D.No studies about social media and mental health have been done.

2What are the participants required to do?

A.To participate in a mood survey first.

B.To show how often they use their phones.

C.To keep their normal social media habits.

D.To stay in the lab for three weeks.

3What can we infer from Hunt’s words in the last two paragraphs?

A.Social comparison makes people work harder.

B.Social media activities can increase self-esteem and self-worth.

C.People will reduce the use of social media.

D.controlling the use of social media will make a difference to people’s life.

4What is the text mainly about?

A.The tendency of using social media.

B.The importance of the study on social media.

C.The disadvantage of using social media.

【题目】 When we talk to our friends online, typing can become a little boring. We turn to memes( 表情包)to make our conversations more fun.1

At least 10 students who were admitted to Harvard University lost their chance to study there after posting offensive(攻击性的) memes in a private Facebook group the university’s student newspaperthe Harvard Crimson, reported on June 5. Rather than just regular jokes, the memes “went to truly dark and ugly place joking about Orthodox Jews(犹太教徒) the gas chambers(毒气室) Mexican children and suicide,” reported CNN2But later, some students set up another group where they traded several offensive memes. When Harvard University found out about the group, it took back the students’ offers,3

“I appreciate humor, but there are so many topics that just should not be joked about,” incoming freshman Jessica Zhang told the Harvard Crimson. “I do not know how those offensive images could be defended”.4“It sounds like Harvard is going too deeply into the private lives of students, Alan Dershowitz, a retired Harvard Law School professor, told The Guardian. “It may affect them for life.”

5 Last year, a similar Facebook group for admitted Harvard students drew criticism from the university after some of its members posted racist jokes.

A. The incident has caused fierce debates, both in the university and around the world

B. A world-class university should help students open minds and overcome bias( 偏见)

C. However, others believe the university overstepped the boundaries.

D. The group was originally meant for would-be Harvard freshmen to get to know each other before they began university

E. Jeff Yang, himself a graduate of Harvard, said the university was right to punish the students

F. But sometimes, sending the wrong meme can make trouble.

G. In fact, this is not the first time Harvard has dealt with a case like this

【题目】 Parents who have books in the home increase the level of education their children will attain(获得), whether rich or poor, according to a 20-year study led by Mariah Evans.

For years, educators have thought the strongest predictor(预示物) of attaining high levels of education was having parents who were highly educated. But, the study showed that the difference between being raised in a bookless home compared to being raised in a home with a 500-book library has as great an effect on the level of education a child will attain as the difference between having parents who are barely literate (有文化的) and having parents who have a university education.

Being a sociologist, Evans was particularly interested to find that children of less-educated parents benefit the most from having books in the home. What kinds of investments should we make to help these kids get ahead? The results of this study indicate that getting some books into their homes is an inexpensive way that we can help these children succeed. Evans said, “Even a little bit goes a long way. Having as few as 20 books in the home still has a significant impact on motivating a child to a higher level of education, and the more books you add, the greater benefit the children get.”

The researchers were struck by the strong effect having books in the home had on children's educational attainment even above and beyond such factors as education level of the parents, the father's occupation or the economic level of the country.

Having books in the home is twice as important as the father's education level, and more important than whether a child was brought up in a developing country or a developed country. Surprisingly, the difference in educational attainment for children born in a developed country and children born in a developing country was just 2 years, less than two-thirds of the effect that having 500 or more books in the home had on children.

1In the past educators held a point of view that ______ .

A.children whose family had a library would possibly attain high levels of education

B.children who were born in poor families studied harder than those in rich families

C.children whose parents are highly educated would attain high levels of education

D.parents’ level of education had nothing to do with their children’s levels of education

2What does the underlined word “motivating” in Paragraph 3 mean?

A.Making somebody want to do something.

B.Helping somebody to finish something

C.Making somebody pretend to do something.

D.Preventing somebody from achieving something.

3Which of the following has the most important effect on the level of education a child will gain?

A.The economic level of the country.B.The father’s occupation.

C.Education levels of parents.D.Having books in the home.
