The government initially tried to fight the “smombie” (手機僵尸) phenomenon by distributing hundreds of stickers (貼紙) around cities, 8 (beg) people to “be safe” and look up.

Instead 9 appealing to people’s good sense, the authorities have therefore turned to trying to save them from being run over. Early last year, they 10 (begin) to test floor-level traffic lights in smombie hotspots in central Seoul. Since then, the experiment has been extended around and beyond the capital.

【解析】

這是一篇說明文。文章說明了韓國人的手機依賴癥以及政府對這一現(xiàn)象已經(jīng)采取的一些措施。

1考查不定式。句意:在韓國,智能手機外殼背面裝有指環(huán),以防止手機從笨拙的用戶手中脫落。這句話中謂語動詞為come with,所以空格處填非謂語動詞。這里用來表達手機外殼裝有指環(huán)的目的,故用不定式做目的狀語。故填to prevent。

2考查名詞的復數(shù)形式。句意:在首爾的很多咖啡店里,情侶看手機的時間遠遠超過看約會對象的時間。空格前有lots of與名詞所有格修飾,所以空格處應填名詞。shop(商店)為可數(shù)名詞,lots of修飾名詞時,應用名詞的復數(shù)形式。故填shops。

3考查連詞。句意同上。由much more time可知,這是一個比較句式。故填than。

4考查副詞。句意:這一行為除了可能會破壞浪漫氣氛,還有其他后果?崭裎挥谛稳菰~前,需用副詞修飾。故填potentially。

5考查冠詞。句意:走在首爾的街頭上,你很有可能會撞到其他人,因為他們的注意力都在手機屏幕上了。空格后的名詞為risk(風險),為單數(shù)形式,所以空格處應填冠詞。real是以輔音音素開始的,故填a。

6考查非限制性定語從句。句意同上。這是一個定語從句,先行詞為people,指人,且在從句中作eyes的定語,所以選用關(guān)系詞whose,故填whose。

7考查一般現(xiàn)在時的被動語態(tài)與主謂一致。句意:據(jù)統(tǒng)計,每年大約370例交通事故是由用手機的行人引起的。這句話缺少謂語,由annually可知,這句話使用一般現(xiàn)在時。主語traffic accidents與cause之間是被動關(guān)系,所以使用被動語態(tài)。且由于主語traffic accidents是復數(shù)形式,所以謂語動詞使用復數(shù)形式故填are caused。

8考查現(xiàn)在分詞。句意:政府最初試圖通過在城市中分發(fā)數(shù)百個貼紙來懇求人們“注意安全”并抬頭看,以此來應對“手機僵尸”現(xiàn)象。這句話的謂語動詞為tried to,所以空格處填非謂語動詞。主語The governmentbeg之間是主動關(guān)系,且分發(fā)貼紙與beg這兩個動作是同時發(fā)生的,所以使用現(xiàn)在分詞作狀語。故填begging。

9考查介詞。句意:政府當局沒有訴諸于人們抬頭看路的良好意識,而是試圖挽救他們免于被車輛碾壓?崭窈鬄閯用~形式,所以空格中填介詞。“instead of”意為“代替; 作為……的替換”,符合句意。故填of。

10考查一般過去時。句意:去年年初,他們開始在首爾市中心的手機僵尸熱點區(qū)域試點路面交通信號燈。這句話缺少謂語動詞,且由early last year可知,這句話應使用一般過去時。故填began

【題目】A company has designed a water bottle, the Memobottle, which is ideal for the office worker’s bag, because it’s completely flat. With the same shape as a piece of paper, the Memobottle is a reusable water bottle that slides into your bag to lie next to books and laptops. The bottle, which can also be washed in a dishwasher, is designed to help reduce the number of plastic bottles in landfills(填埋).

Two creative people Jesse Leeworthy and Jonathan Byrt, both 28,designed the bottle to be convenient to carry and environmentally friendly. It is made from a durable and dishwasher-friendly“green” plastic.

Leeworthy and Byrt,from Australia, say more than 600 billion single-use bottles were sold globally last year. In America alone, studies show that around 1,500 single-use water bottle are consumed every second—only 20 percent of these are recycled. And the cost of buying more and more plastic bottles adds to— the pair say that bottled water costs approximately 1,400 times more than tap water.

“We’ve always been passionate about the environment,” said Leeworthy.“For years we have been focused on creative design that provides environmental remedy while improving social convenience. The Memobottle was designed to overcome two problems that we see in our society: our attachment to the outdoors,and our inability to fit water bottles in laptop bags.”

The bottle will be available in three different sizes— A5 which holds 750 ml,A4 which holds 1.25 litres and letter size which stores 1.25 litres. The product is seeking funding on Kickstarter and has already soared(飆升)past its primary goal of raising 8,310 ($13,500),reaching it in just 36 hours. Jonathan Byrt said, “The feedback we’ve received has been overwhelmingly positive! The emails of support and interest, and social media comments have been amazing!”

The product is expected to be on the market by Christmas and will be available for global delivery.

1What is the main character of the newly-designed water bottle?

A. Clean and easy to wash.

B. Practical and friendly to environment.

C. Flat and popular with housewives.

D. Cheap and convenient to carry in bags.

【題目】 The negative (負面的) health effects of sleep shortages during the week can’t be changed by marathon weekend sleep sessions, according to a new study.

Researchers have long known that routine sleep deprivation (缺乏) can cause weight gain and increase other health risks, including diabetes. But there are still some people who hope that shutting off the alarm on Saturday and Sunday will repay the weekly sleep debt and remove any ill effects.

The research, published in Current Biology, ruins those hopes. Despite complete freedom to sleep in and nap during a weekend recovery period, participants in a sleep laboratory who were limited to five hours of sleep on weekdays gained nearly three pounds over two weeks and experienced metabolic disruption (代謝紊亂) that would increase their risk for diabetes over the long term. While weekend recovery sleep had some benefits after a single week of inadequate sleep, those gains were wiped out when people returned right to their same sleep schedule the next Monday.

“If there are benefits of catch-up sleep, they’re gone when you go back to your routine. It’s very short-lived,” said Kenneth Wright, who led the research. “These health effects are long-term. It’s kind of like smoking once was — people would smoke and wouldn’t see an immediate effect on their health, but people will say now that smoking is not a healthy lifestyle choice. I think sleep is in the early stage of where smoking used to be.”

Wright said that the study suggests people should prioritize sleep — cutting out the optional “sleep stealers” such as watching television shows or spending time on electronic equipment. Even when people don’t have a choice about losing sleep due to child-care responsibilities or job schedules, they should think about prioritizing sleep in the same way they would think about a healthy diet or exercise.

1What had the researchers already known before doing the new research?

A.The actual benefits of weekend recovery sleep.

B.Harm to health caused by the lack of routine sleep.

C.People’s habit of shutting off the alarm during holidays.

D.The relationship between body weight and sleep amount.

2Kenneth Wright mentioned smoking to _________.

A.call on smokers to completely abandon smoking

B.advise people to go to sleep when they want to smoke

C.show people have known the harm brought by smoking

D.show people will someday notice the bad effects of sleep deprivation

3What does the underlined word “prioritize” probably mean?

A.Have a low opinion of something.

B.Increase the amount of something.

C.Cut down something that isn’t necessary any more.

D.Treat something as being more important than others.

4What can be the best title for the text?

A.Weekend Catch-up Sleep Is a Lie

B.Bad Sleep Habits Are Harmful to Health

C.A New Study Has an Unexpected Discovery

D.Advantages and Disadvantages of Catch-up Sleep

We all knew we can’t live on our own. A lot of things are very important in our lives, such as animals which are usual considered as one of the most essential part. They help us in many ways except providing their meat for us and making our diet variously. Moreover, people get much fun and pleasure when lived with them. In my opinion, how the animals give us may be more than the things we do for them, but they are our great and honest friends. So in the return, we should do our best protect them because we can not live without them.

【題目】From self-driving cars to care-bots(care+robots) for elderly people, rapid development in technology has long represented a possible threat to many jobs normally performed by people. But experts now believe that almost 50 percent of occupations existing today will be completely unnecessary by 2025 as artificial intelligence continues to change businesses.

“The next fifteen years will see a revolution in how we work, and a revolution will necessarily take place in how we plan and think about workplaces,” said Peter Andrew, Director of Workplace Strategy for CBRE Asia Pacific.

A growing number of jobs in the future will require creative intelligence, social skills and the ability to use artificial intelligence.

The report is based on interviews with 200 experts, business leaders and young people from Asia Pacific, Europe and North America. It shows that in the US technology already destroys more jobs than it creates.

But the report states: “Losing occupations does not necessarily mean losing jobs — just changing what people do.” Growth in new jobs could occur as much, according to the research.

“The growth of 20 to 40 person companies that have the speed and technological know-how will directly challenge big companies,” it states.

A 2014 report by Pew Research found 52 percent of experts in artificial intelligence and robotics were optimistic about the future and believed there would still be enough jobs in the next few years. The optimists pictured “a future in which robots do not take the place of more jobs than they create,” according to Aaron Smith, the report’s co-author.

“Technology will continue to affect jobs, but more jobs seem likely to be created. Although there have always been unemployed people, when we reached a few billion people there were billions of jobs. There is no shortage of things that need to be done and that will not change,” Microsoft’s Jonathan Grudin told researchers.

1We can infer from the text that in the future _____.

A. people will face many difficulties

B. people will take up more creative jobs

C. artificial intelligence will threaten people's lives

D. most jobs will be done in traditional workplaces

2According to the report, _____.

A. people won't necessarily lose jobs

B. big companies will face fewer challenges

C. small companies will win against big companies

D. most people will become interested in technology

3What is the attitude of most experts in artificial intelligence and robotics to the future?

A. Mixed B. Worried.

C. Hopeful. D. Doubtful.

4Jonathan Grudin’s words in the last paragraph suggest that _____.

A. there will be enough jobs for people

B. things will change a lot in a few years

C. many people will become unemployed

D. technology will totally change future jobs
