The desire to be connected has brought solitude to a (n) 19 as we’ve known it. People have become so 20 in the world of networks and connections that one can often be contacted 21 they’d rather not be. Today we can talk,text,e-mail,chat and blog (写博客) ,not only from our 22 , but from our mobile phones as well.

Most developed nations have become 23 on digital technology simply because they’ve grown accustomed to it,and at this point not 24 it would make them an outsider. 25 ,many jobs and careers require people to be 26 .From this point of view,technology has changed the culture of work. Being reachable might feel like a 27 to those who may not want to be able to be contacted at all times.

I suppose the positive side is that solitude is still possible for anyone who 28 wants it. Computers can be shut 29 and mobile phones can be turned off. The ability to be “connected ”and “on” has many 30 ,as well as disadvantages. Travelers have ended up 31 on mountains,and mobile phones have saved countless lives. They can also make people feel 32 and forced to answer unwanted calls or 33 to unwanted texts.

16. C解析:本段第一句话句意:在这个数字 世界,独处几乎是不存在的。所以本句表 达的意思是有了电子邮件、社会网络等这 些通讯工具,信息意味着被互相分享 (share) 。

update 意为“更新”;receive 意 为“得到,收到”;collect意为“收集”。

17. C解析:一旦你放弃了独处,那么就很难 再找回来。此处用连词once引导条件状 语从句,符合语境。

though意为“尽管”,

引导让步状语从句;until意为“直到”,引 导时间状语从句;before意为“在……之 前”,引导时间状语从句,均不符合上下文 语境。

18. B解析:新技术应是塑造(shape) 而不是 尊重(respect) 、忽视(ignore) 或保护(preserve) 我们的文化。

19. C解析:既然想与他人有联系,那自然就 会结束独处的境地。

bring sth. to an end 表示“使……结束”,为固定表达。

sensitive 意为“敏感的 ”;intelligent 意为 “聪明的,有才智的”;consid&ate意为“体 贴的,体谅的”。

21. A 解析:由空格前的one can often be contacted (—个人经常会被联系到) 与空 格后的they’d rather not be可知,空格处 表示“即使”(even if) 。

22. B解析:我们能交谈、发短信、发电子邮 件、聊天和写博客,除了后面提到的能用手 机做到之外,当然就是电脑(computer) 了。,

23. D解析:既然大多数发达国家习惯了这 种数字技术,所以人们就变得依赖它们。

become dependent on为固定搭配,意为 “变得依赖/依靠”。

24 .B解析:在这种情况下,不使用(using) 数 字技术则使他们显得像旁观者、局外人。 本处为动名词短语作主语。

25. A解析:除了上文提到的人们已经习惯 了数字技术外,许多工作和职业也(also) 需要人们互相联系。

26. A解析:许多工作和职业也需要人们互 相联系(to be connected) 。其他选项用在 此处句意不通顺。

27. C解析:后文提到的是那些不想被联系 到的人,所以能够被联系到对他们来说自 然就是一种负担(burden) 。

28. D 解析:solitude is still possible (独处仍 然是可能的) 自然是对那些真正(really) 想 要独处的人来说的,而不是slightly (稍微 地) ,hardly (几乎不) ,merely (仅仅) 。

shut out意为“不让……进 人”;shut down意为“关闭”;shut up意为 “住口,监禁”;shut in意为“把……关在房 内”。

32. A解析:本段提到“被联系上”既有有利 的一面又有不利的一面,上句“手机救了很 多人的命”是有利的一面,此处指不利的一 面,当人们被逼奈回电话或回复信息时, 他们会感到陷人困境。

trapped意为“陷人 困境的,受到限制的”。

33. D解析:reply to为固定搭配,意为“回复”。

34. A解析:根据后面的Some…Others…可 知人们对待“被联系”的态度是变化 的(vary) 〇

第三部分书面表达(共两节,满分35分)

第一节阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分) 

So you’re between the ages of 13 and 24. What makes you happy? Spending time with family was the top answer to that open-ended question,according to a survey—more than 100 questions asked of 1 ,280 people aged 13-24 carried out by the Associated Press on the nature of happiness among America^ young people.

Next was spending time with friends. And good news for parents: nearly three quarters of young people say their relationship with their parents makes them happy.

“They’re my foundation ,” says Kristina St. John,17, a high-school student from Queens in New York. “My mum tells me that even if I do something stupid,she's still going to love me. Just knowing that makes me feel very happy. ”

Other results are more disconcerting. While most young people are happy with the way their lives are going,there are racial differences: the survey shows whites to be happier than blacks. A lot of young people feel stressed,particularly those from the middle class,and females more than males.

You might think money would be clearly tied to a general sense of happiness. But almost no one said “money” when asked what makes them happy,though people with the highest family incomes are generally happier with life. However,having highly educated parents is a stronger predictor (预示物) of happiness than income.

Young people think marriage would make them happy and want to be married some day. Most also want to have kids.

Finally,when asked to name their heroes,nearly half of-them mentioned one or both of their parents. The winner,by a nose (以些微之差) :Mum.

56. What's the meaning of the underlined word “disconcerting” in Paragraph 4 ? (1 word)

        

57. What are the top two things that make young people happy? (No more than 10 words)

        

58. Do most American young people want to marry? Why? (No more than 10 words)

        

59. What can we infer from the last paragraph? (No more than 7 words)

        

60. Among the young people who would be more likely to feel stressed? (No more than 6 words)
