Soli- tude can be hard to discover 17 it has been given up. In this respect,new technologies have 18 our culture.

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 (寫博客) ，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:本段第一句話句意:在這個(gè)數(shù)字 世界，獨(dú)處幾乎是不存在的。所以本句表 達(dá)的意思是有了電子郵件、社會(huì)網(wǎng)絡(luò)等這 些通訊工具，信息意味著被互相分享 (share) 。

update 意為“更新”；receive 意 為“得到，收到”;collect意為“收集”。

17. C解析:一旦你放棄了獨(dú)處，那么就很難 再找回來。此處用連詞once引導(dǎo)條件狀 語從句，符合語境。

though意為“盡管”，

引導(dǎo)讓步狀語從句；until意為“直到”，引 導(dǎo)時(shí)間狀語從句；before意為“在……之 前”，引導(dǎo)時(shí)間狀語從句，均不符合上下文 語境。

18. B解析:新技術(shù)應(yīng)是塑造(shape) 而不是 尊重(respect) 、忽視(ignore) 或保護(hù)(preserve) 我們的文化。

19. C解析:既然想與他人有聯(lián)系，那自然就 會(huì)結(jié)束獨(dú)處的境地。

bring sth. to an end 表示“使……結(jié)束”，為固定表達(dá)。

20. D解析:在這個(gè)網(wǎng)絡(luò)相連的世界，找到一 個(gè)人是如此容易。此處用reachable (可獲 得的，可達(dá)到的) 來表達(dá)人很容易被找到。

sensitive 意為“敏感的 ”；intelligent 意為 “聰明的，有才智的”;consid&ate意為“體 貼的，體諒的”。

21. A 解析：由空格前的one can often be contacted (—個(gè)人經(jīng)常會(huì)被聯(lián)系到) 與空 格后的they’d rather not be可知，空格處 表示“即使”(even if) 。

22. B解析：我們能交談、發(fā)短信、發(fā)電子郵 件、聊天和寫博客，除了后面提到的能用手 機(jī)做到之外，當(dāng)然就是電腦(computer) 了。，

23. D解析：既然大多數(shù)發(fā)達(dá)國家習(xí)慣了這 種數(shù)字技術(shù)，所以人們就變得依賴它們。

become dependent on為固定搭配，意為 “變得依賴/依靠”。

24 .B解析:在這種情況下，不使用(using) 數(shù) 字技術(shù)則使他們顯得像旁觀者、局外人。 本處為動(dòng)名詞短語作主語。

25. A解析：除了上文提到的人們已經(jīng)習(xí)慣 了數(shù)字技術(shù)外，許多工作和職業(yè)也(also) 需要人們互相聯(lián)系。

26. A解析:許多工作和職業(yè)也需要人們互 相聯(lián)系(to be connected) 。其他選項(xiàng)用在 此處句意不通順。

27. C解析:后文提到的是那些不想被聯(lián)系 到的人，所以能夠被聯(lián)系到對(duì)他們來說自 然就是一種負(fù)擔(dān)(burden) 。

28. D 解析：solitude is still possible (獨(dú)處仍 然是可能的) 自然是對(duì)那些真正(really) 想 要獨(dú)處的人來說的，而不是slightly (稍微 地) ，hardly (幾乎不) ，merely (僅僅) 。

29. B解析：想要獨(dú)處，就把電腦關(guān)掉，手機(jī) 也可被關(guān)掉。

shut out意為“不讓……進(jìn) 人”;shut down意為“關(guān)閉”；shut up意為 “住口，監(jiān)禁”;shut in意為“把……關(guān)在房 內(nèi)”。

30. C解析：由空格后的關(guān)鍵詞as well as disadvantages 可知，應(yīng)填 advantages (有利方面) 。

31. B解析：游客們在山中迷路(lost) ,正是 手機(jī)救了他們的命。如果說是游客們藏 (hidden) 在或被拋棄(deserted) 在山中，則 不合常理。

32. A解析:本段提到“被聯(lián)系上”既有有利 的一面又有不利的一面，上句“手機(jī)救了很 多人的命”是有利的一面，此處指不利的一 面，當(dāng)人們被逼奈回電話或回復(fù)信息時(shí)， 他們會(huì)感到陷人困境。

trapped意為“陷人 困境的，受到限制的”。

33. D解析：reply to為固定搭配，意為“回復(fù)”。

34. A解析：根據(jù)后面的Some…Others…可 知人們對(duì)待“被聯(lián)系”的態(tài)度是變化 的(vary) 〇

35. D解析:此處表示盡管人們的態(tài)度不同， 但是很難想象沒有(without) 科技進(jìn)步的 生活會(huì)是什么樣子。

第三部分書面表達(dá)(共兩節(jié)，滿分35分)

第一節(jié)閱讀表達(dá)(共5小題;每小題2分，滿分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 (預(yù)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)
