第二節(jié)(共10小題;每小題1.5分,滿分15分)

The “selfie” is used to describe the self-taken photo, often from a smartphone. Someone takes about 10 selfies each time he does, and he only ends up 1. ( post) one or two of those. He picks the one that he feels make him look the 2. ( good). In that picture, he gains confidence. For that moment, everything bad or terrible that has happened to him 3. ( remove), because that smile is what gives him the 4. ( determine) to love himself.

I read 5. poem recently and the young man said, “If I ask you 6. you love, the answers will most likely roll off your tongue. You love to read. You love to write. You love your mom, you daughter, or your best friend. How long do you think you can go on and on before you say ‘I love 7. (I)’?”

That statement hit me like a ton of bricks. I’ve struggled with confidence all my life. I still do. And in 8. way am I saying that taking a selfie is a gateway 9. confidence. 10. , the selfie does deserve some credit for allowing individuals to express themselves.

1.posting

2.best

3.is removed

4.determination

5.a

6.what

7.myself

8.no

9.to

10.However/ Rather/ Instead

【解析】

試題分析:自拍,通常會用智能手機拍下一系列自己的照片,然后選出最滿意的曬在網(wǎng)上。這在無意中增加自信。先愛自己才能再去愛他人。

1.end up doing 意思是:以……而告終,所以用posting。

2.人們都會選擇自認為最漂亮的照片發(fā)在網(wǎng)上,所以用best。

3.分析句意可知,哲理應該是人有了自信,不好的事就被拋開了。全文是一般現(xiàn)在時,所以用被動語態(tài)is removed。

4.微笑給了他愛自己的決心,所以用名詞determination放在定冠詞the后。

5.我讀過一首詩。所以用a表一個。

6.根據(jù)回答可知問題是:你愛什么。所以用what。

7.文章講的是自拍讓人們自愛自信,所以用myself。

8.am I saying that…是倒裝,結(jié)合語境可知,用no。意為:我絕不會認為自拍增加人的自信的一個方法。

9.意為:我絕不會認為自拍增加人的自信的一個方法。這里是 a way to sth., 所以用to。

10.句意:不過,自拍照確實在允許個人表達自己的想法方面值得贊揚。所以用However/ Rather/ Instead。

Last summer, as part of my high school graduation project, I volunteered at Saunders House nursing home.

I choose this experience because it was something that I had never done before and I wanted to lend a helping hand.When I first came up with the idea of volunteering at a nursing home, I wanted to help out with activities and meet with some of the residents (住客).

At first it was challenging because I was extremely shy; however after getting to know the residents a little better, I started to feel more comfortable around them. My goal in volunteering was to bring a smile to the residents by doing different activities from word games to playing chess. I feel as if I had accomplished that goal.

At the nursing home, I did a lot of different activities with the residents ranging from Jeopardy, to Wheel of Fortune. One of my favorites was a word game where I would write a ten letter word on the board and the residents would try to come up with as many smaller words as possible. I could tell that it was one of their favorite games because they always seemed to be so enthusiastic when they played.I also transported residents to and from their rooms when they needed help; and whenever it was a nice day out, I would take them outside to get some fresh air and relax. On Saturday mornings, I would deliver the newspaper to the residents and on Sundays, I assisted with morning church services.

The most unforgettable part of this experience was when I had one on one conversations with the residents; it was incredible how many great stories they had to tell. One of the first residents was Mr. Charles Bowman who is one hundred and three years old!

1.The author volunteered at the nursing home because ________.

A.she was willing to help

2.What helped the author get over the challenge?

In a computer age,a broadband Internet connection is very popular now.Whether cable or mobile broadband,today’s connections are many times faster than those in the early days. Videos play smoothly, complex websites load quickly,and files download much faster than ten years ago.And the files are much bigger too.

There’s a hidden problem:You have to live near enough to a major city to get broadband Internet. If you don’t,it's slow dial-up access for you. And for those living really far out,there may be no Internet access at a11.

Technology experts often talk about the “l(fā)ast mile” problem, which refers to the difficulty of bringing Internet access to remote locations.In cities and suburbs(郊區(qū)),it's relatively easy to provide access for everyone.It is much more difficult to deliver access to those living far from cities,especially in developing countries.Internet service providers.for their part,have been reluctant to provide access to sparsely(稀疏地)populated areas.The handful of Internet users they would reach wouldn’t cover the expense.

But every year, technological advancements allow of more and more Internet users. Most broadband connections today run over existing cable TV and telephone lines although these technologies aren’t available everywhere.

Some companies have delivered the Internet over standard power lines. Advancements in cheaper more efficient fiber optics cables(光纖電纜)promise to bring extremely fast Internet connections to more users.Still.the“l(fā)ast mile”problem remains hard to deal with.There will always be somewhere that doesn’t have an affordable broadband connection.But someday that might not matter.If the rapid progress in cell phone technology is any indication,it may not be too long before an Internet connection simply follows you wherever you go.

1. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A.Internet connections have been popular everywhere.

B.Internet service providers are willing to care about rural(農(nóng)村的)customers.

C. The problem of Internet access hasn’t been completely dealt with

D. Computer can’t become popular in developing countries.

2.Paragraph 4 mainly tells us that technological advancements_______.

A.make TV and telephone available everywhere

B.bring great change to people’s everyday life

C. bring faster Internet connections to users

D. make it possible for more people to use the Internet

3.What may eventually settle the“l(fā)ast mile”problem?

A. The broadband connection’s getting faster.

B.The rapid progress in cell phone technology.

C.More and more Internet connections.

D. More and more Internet users

4.The best title for this passage may be________.

A.Internet Connection Problems

While astronauts in space get to do many exciting things, they miss out on ordinary things that we all take for granted—being able to walk on firm ground, hanging out with family and digging into a slice of hot steaming pizza. Though not much can be done about the first two things, there may soon be a solution to the third one, thanks to this cool 3-D pizza printer!

About a year ago, NASA offered $125 ,000 to Anjan Contractor, a 3-D technology expert, to build a device (設(shè)備) that would allow astronauts to make pizza on demand. The mechanical engineer promised that his invention would produce pies in large quantities that looked, tasted and even smelled like pizza made in common ovens.

Late last year, the engineer presented a video of his first prototype (原型) that begins by creating a single slice of dough (面團) that is cooked and printed at the same time. Then comes the tomato “sauce” — a mix of tomato powder, oil and water and finally, a protein slice that resembles cheese. While the video doesn’t show the baking process, the inventor says that once the pizza is printed, it can be ready to be consumed in 7 seconds.

While the pie in the video looks delicious enough to attract any pizza lover, Anjan Contractor is far from ready for astronauts. That’s because he still has to find a solution to make the food container in the printer last for 30 years. Though that may sound unrealistic, actually it is not.

Anjan Contractor believes that the only way that is possible is that the water is removed from all the ingredients (配料) and then they are reduced to the powder form. This, as you can imagine, will not be so easy. But, while the printer may not be ready for space, it certainly looks ready enough for people on earth. Hopefully, NASA and Contractor will consider selling it to those not fortunate enough to go to Mars!

1. Why does the author mention the things that astronauts in space cannot do?

A. To ask us not to take common things for granted.

B. To show they live a difficult life there.

C. To show their life is boring in space.

D. To introduce the topic of the text.

2.NASA offered $ 125, 000 to Anjan Contractor mainly to _______.

A. create some new type of 3-D printer

B. attract more companies to work for NASA

C. help astronauts in space enjoy fresh pizza one day

D. produce pizza in large quantities to earn great profits

3.The biggest challenge that Anjan Contractor is faced with now is probably that _______.

A. he has no money left to go on with his research

B. the pizza doesn’t seem appetizing to pizza lovers

C. he has no way to make pizza that can last for thirty years

D. he cannot make the food container last for decades

4. What’s the best title of the passage?

A. NASA is trying its best to help astronauts eat better

B. Astronauts may soon be able to enjoy steaming hot pizza

C. NASA is working on making pizza for common people

D. A 3-D pizza printer has been used to make pizza

Sometime in the next century, the familiar early-newspaper on the front porch (門廊) will disappear. And instead of reading your newspaper, it will read to you. You'll get up and turn on the computer newspaper just like switching on the TV. An electronic voice will distribute stories about the latest events, guided by a program that selects the type of news you want. You'll even get to choose the kind of voice you want to hear. Do you want more information on this brief story? A simple touch makes the entire text appear. Save it in your own personal computer if you like. These are among the predictions from communication experts working on the newspapers of the future. Pictured as part of broader home-based media and entertainment systems, computer newspapers will unite print and broadcast reporting, and offer news and analysis with video images of news events.

Most of the technology is available now, but convincing more people that they don't need to read a newspaper is the next step. But resistance to computer newspapers may be stronger from within journalism. Since it is such a cultural change, it may be that the present generation of journalists and publishers will have to die off before the next generation realizes that the newspaper industry is no longer a newspaper industry. Technology is making the end of ' traditional newspapers unavoidable.

Despite technological advances, it could take decades to replace newsprint with computer screens. It might take 30 to 40 years to complete the changeover because people need to buy computers and because newspapers have established financial interests in the paper industry.

1.Which of the following is NOT an advantage of computer newspapers?

A. They are cheaper than traditional newspapers.

B. They are more convenient to read.

C. You can choose the kind of voice you want to hear.

D. You can easily save information for future use.

2.Which of the following is a reason why it will take a long time to complete the changeover?

A. The technology is impossible now.

B. Computer newspaper s are too expensive.

C . The popularization of computers needs a long time.

D. Traditional newspapers are easier to read.

3.It can be inferred that journalists are against computer newspapers because ____ .

A.they don't know how to use computers

B. they think computer newspapers take too much time to read

C. they think the new technology is bad

D. they have been trained to write for traditional newspapers

4.We can infer from the passage that .

A. all technological changes are good

B. new technologies don't always replace old ones

C. new technologies will eventually replace old ones

D. traditional newspapers are here to stay for another century

5.What is the best title of the passage?

A. Computer newspapers are well liked.

B. Newspapers of the future will be on the computer.

C. Newspapers are out of fashion.

D. New communications technology.
