【解析】

本文是一篇說明文,介紹了隨著層出不窮各式各樣的電子支付方式的興起,在不久的未來,現(xiàn)金會(huì)不會(huì)消失在人們的生活中呢?答案是否定的。

1考查非謂語動(dòng)詞。句意:由于使用現(xiàn)金的高成本和越來越多的替代品,現(xiàn)金可能變得不那么受歡迎。修飾名詞number,且表示"正在增長的",故用現(xiàn)在分詞形式,故填growing。

2考查非謂語動(dòng)詞。句意:現(xiàn)金在交易過程中是獨(dú)一無二的,因?yàn)槿魏稳硕伎梢栽谌魏螘r(shí)間和地點(diǎn)進(jìn)行交易,不涉及第三方參與其中。此處為with的復(fù)合結(jié)構(gòu),third partiesinvolve之間是動(dòng)賓關(guān)系,用過去分詞表示被動(dòng),故填involved。

3考查時(shí)態(tài)和主謂一致。句意:這種自由帶來了強(qiáng)大的隱私保護(hù)。本句為完全倒裝句,主語strong privacy protection為第三人稱單數(shù),此處要與全文時(shí)態(tài)保持一致,故用一般現(xiàn)在時(shí),故填comes。

4考查冠詞。句意:當(dāng)人們帶著現(xiàn)金時(shí),他們有一種安全感。此處的sense 是可數(shù)名詞,a sense of ...表示“一種……感,”,故填a

5考查副詞。句意:當(dāng)然,隨著我們的社會(huì)更加數(shù)字化,這些條目將會(huì)進(jìn)化。修飾形容詞 native用副詞,故填digitally。

6考查非謂語動(dòng)詞。句意:舊的習(xí)慣和觀點(diǎn)需要花一段時(shí)間去改變。sth takes sb +time+to do表示“某物花費(fèi)某人時(shí)間去做...”,故填to turn。

7考查名詞的數(shù)。句意:一些商家將抵制新設(shè)備的成本或伴隨現(xiàn)金替代品而來的費(fèi)用。merchant為可數(shù)名詞,且其前有some修飾,故用復(fù)數(shù)形式,故填merchants。

8考查被動(dòng)語態(tài)。句意:現(xiàn)金被認(rèn)為更方便、更普遍。主語Cashconsider之間為被動(dòng)關(guān)系,故用被動(dòng)語態(tài),且為一般現(xiàn)在時(shí),故填is considered

9考查定語從句。句意:盡管現(xiàn)金可能不那么受歡迎,但請(qǐng)放心,總會(huì)有人在街上攔住你,問最近的自動(dòng)提款機(jī)怎么走。先行詞為someone,指人,關(guān)系詞在從句中作主語,故填who。

10考查介詞。句意參考上題解析,directions to...朝……的方向,故填to。

【題目】 Returning to a book you’ve read many times can feel like drinks with an old friend. There’s a welcome familiarity - but also sometimes a slight suspicion that time has changed you both, and thus the relationship. But books don’t change, people do. And that’s what makes the act of rereading so rich and transformative.

The beauty of rereading lies in the idea that our bond with the work is based on our present mental register. It’s true, the older I get, the more I feel time has wings. But with reading, it’s all about the present. It’s about the now and what one contributes to the now, because reading is a give and take between author and reader. Each has to pull their own weight.

There are three books I reread annually .The first, which I take to reading every spring is Emest Hemningway’s A Moveable Feast. Published in 1964, it’s his classic memoir of 1920s Paris. The language is almost intoxicating (令人陶醉的),an aging writer looking back on an ambitious yet simpler time. Another is Annie Dillard’s Holy the Firm, her poetic 1975 ramble (隨筆) about everything and nothing. The third book is Julio Cortazar’s Save Twilight: Selected Poems, because poetry. And because Cortazar.

While I tend to buy a lot of books, these three were given to me as gifs, which might add to the meaning I attach to them. But I imagine that, while money is indeed wonderful and necessary, rereading an author’s work is the highest currency a reader can pay them. The best books are the ones that open further as time passes. But remember, it’s you that has to grow and read and reread in order to better understand your friends.

1Why does the author like rereading?

A.It evaluates the writer-reader relationship.

B.It’s a window to a whole new world.

C.It’s a substitute for drinking with a friend.

D.It extends the understanding of oneself.

2What do we know about the book A Moveable Feast?

A.It’s a brief account of a trip.

B.It’s about Hemingway’s life as a young man.

C.It’s a record of a historic event.

D.It’s about Hemingway’s friends in Paris.

3What does the underlined word currency in paragraph 4 refer to?

A.Debt

B.Reward.

C.Allowance.

D.Face value.

4What can we infer about the author from the text?

A.He loves poetry.

B.He’s an editor.

C.He’s very ambitious.

D.He teaches reading.

【題目】 "Like a monster, it destroys everything. " That's how one school girl described a tsunami(海嘯).

On Dec. 26, 2004, a magnitude-9. 1 earthquake in Indonesia set off a massive tsunami. It killed more than 230,000 people across four countries and cost an estimated $ 10 billion in damage.

Nov. 5 is World Tsunami Awareness Day and at the United Nations Wednesday, disaster risk reduction was high on the agenda.

"What I can tell you is that the tsunami wave cannot be stopped," said Bulgarians U. N. Ambassador Georgi Velikov Panayotov. He was on vacation in Thailand in 2004 and survived the tsunami. "What we can do is build early warning systems and, of course, educate the population about the damaging power of the tsunami wave," he said.

On March 11, 2011, a magnitude-9 earthquake rocked northeastern Japan triggering a fierce tsunami that also damaged the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant, south of Sendai.

"When the big earthquake hit Japan in 2011, people thought that we were prepared for it," said Japan's U. N. Ambassador Koro Bessho. "It caused severe damage. We had dams; we had drills. However, we had been counting on something that hits every 100 years and the earthquake was of the size of possibly every 500 years or thousand years, he said.

These two events sent the countries of the region into overdrive to review and improve disaster preparedness. In 2015 the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction was born. It aims to help create a better understanding of disaster risk and improve preparedness for an effective response.

Indonesia is made up of thousands of islands which are disaster-prone(易受災(zāi)地區(qū)). Willem Rampangilei, head of the Disaster Management Agency of Indonesia, said his government now has plans for every disaster-prone city.

Countries at risk are also expanding their education programs. Children from an early age are taught how to react in case of a tsunami and then go with their classmates to higher ground away from coastal areas to avoid the walls of water the tsunami triggers.

1What does Georgi Velikov Panayotov mainly talk about?

A.The general features of a tsunami.B.Ways for humans to face a tsunami.

C.His suffering in the 2004 tsunami.D.The loss caused by the 2004 tsunami.

2In Koro Bessho's opinion, why did the 2011 earthquake cause severe damage?

A.It caused a fierce tsunami.B.It destroyed a nuclear plant.

C.The size was beyond expectation.D.There was no effective defense system.

3What common belief pushed different countries to take action to face a coming tsunami?

A.Children should be protected by all means.

B.The improvement of preparedness can reduce damage.

C.Proper response in case of a tsunami can save one's life.

D.Stronger measures should be taken in disaster-prone areas.

4Which can be the best title of the text?

A.World Tsunami Awareness Day

B.Nations Attacked by Massive Tsunami

C.The Unpredictable and Destructive Disaster

D.Learn from Disasters to Prevent Future Ones

【題目】 A 2015 survey found that two out of three U.S. teens owned an iPhone. For this reason, I call them iGen, and as I explain in my new book “iGen: Why Today’s Super-Connected Kids are Growing up Less Rebellious(反叛的), More Tolerant, Less Happy-and Completely Unprepared for Adulthood,”1.

What makes iGen different? 2. They spend so much time on the internet, texting friends and on social media—in the large surveys I analyzed for the book, an average of about six hours per day—that they have less leisure time for everything else.

That includes what was once the favorite activity of most teens:3. Whether it’s going to parties, shopping at the mall, watching movies or aimlessly driving around, iGen teens are participating in these social activities at a significantly lower rate than previous generations.

4: In the annual Monitoring the Future survey, the percentage of high school seniors who read a nonrequired book or magazine nearly every day dropped from 60 percent in 1980 to only 16 percent in 2015.

This isn’t to say that iGen teens don’t have a lot going for them. 5 . They also seem to have a stronger work ethic and more realistic expectations than millennials(千禧一代) did at the same age.

To be clear, moderate smartphone and social media use—up to an hour a day—is not linked to mental health issues. However, most teens (and adults) are on their phones much more than that.

A.spending most of their free time on screens

B.hanging out with their friends

C.They would rather see their friends in person than communicate with them using their phones

D.Growing up with a smartphone has affected nearly every aspect of their lives

E.They are physically safer and more tolerant than previous generations were

F.They’re the first generation to spend their adolescence with a smartphone

G.In addition, iGen reads books, magazines and newspapers much less than previous generations did as teens
