And of course, many of these are on the World Heritage List (WHL). These include remains of ancient cultures like Cuzco in Peru or the rock city of Petra in Jordan as well as old city centers such as Rome in Italy. Also common are places of artistic or cultural significance, like the Stonehenge stone circle in England. But the WHL contains a lot of sites that are not so obvious. Let’s look at a few of the more unusual sites on the WHL and why it is important to preserve them. Citadel of Haiti These monuments were built at the end of the 19th century when Haiti became independent and the many thousands of black slaves in Haiti were free for the first time. These ex-slaves built the monuments, which the WHL describes as “a universal symbol of liberty”. Borders of France and Spain This is an area of great natural beauty and the mountains have many interesting geological formations. But it is also an area of small farms. The WHL has listed the site because it shows us about past European society through its landscape of villages, farms, fields, up land pastures and mountain roads. The Darjeeling Himalayan Railway This railway in India was opened in 1881 and is still operating today. It crosses a difficult area of mountain landscape and it is a great example of railway engineering. The WHL says that it is “the first, and still the most outstanding, example of a hill passenger railway.” The city of Brasilia Brasilia is a capital city that was created from nothing in 1956. The WHL calls it “a land mark in the history of town planning”. The different areas of the city and the buildings themselves were all designed at the same time so that they would harmonize with each other. 1. What’s the function of the examples of World Heritage Sites in paragraph 1? A. To highlight the importance of WHL. B. To exemplify sites of artistic and cultural value. C. To compare the differences between various sites. D. To draw readers’ attention to more unique sites on the WHL. 2. Who built Citadel of Haiti? A. Former slaves. B. Citizens in Haiti. C. Active revolutionaries. D. Haiti government. 3. Which site will attract a town planner most? A. Citadel of Haiti. B. Borders of France and Spain. C. The city of Brasilia. D. The Darjeeling Himalayan Railway. B When I was a little boy growing up, my Mom, Dad, brothers and I lived in my Nana’s old house. It was surrounded by four huge vegetable gardens. And around the house so many flowers were planted. It was so beautiful there in the spring and summer. That wasn’t all, though. On the back porch Nana had dozens of potted plants hanging on hooks. She watered them, talked to them and nurtured them. And in the winter she would carry them all inside and set them on shelves near the windows of our enclosed front porch. There with a little water and a lot of love she kept them alive, green, and growing even during the coldest, darkest months. As a boy I was puzzled by all the effort she put into them. I understood the vegetable gardens. They helped to feed the family all winter long. I even understood the flowers around the house. They were pretty and smelled so sweet in the summer months. The reason she put so much effort into caring for those potted plants, however, eluded me. They didn’t give us any food and they rarely had any flowers on them. They remained a mystery to my child’s mind. Now as I’ve grown older I am beginning to understand why my Nana had those potted plants. It is the same reason I have so many pictures of sunrises and forests hanging in my home. They remind me during the dark, cold, winter months full of bare trees and yellow grass that light, love, and growth still exist. They remind me that Spring will come again. They remind me that God loves us and is still with us even when the earth doesn’t show it. Today I see Nana’s potted plants in a new light. They are worth every bit of the love and care she put into them. But what tells me most about light and love is Nana herself. She is light to my soul even in my darkest times. And her love lives on in my heart even if she is in Heaven. May we all learn to love as she loved, shine as she shined, and live as she lived. 4. Which of the following is close in meaning to the underlined word “eluded” in paragraph 2? A. Upset. B. Misguided. C. Confused. D. Distracted. 5. Why was Nana fond of potted plants? A. They were a sign of hope. B. They resembled sunrise and forests. C. They constantly kept Nana company. D. They were portable and easy to nurture. 6. What is the author’s purpose of writing the passage? A. To advocate growing potted plants. B. To sing the praise of Nana’s spirit and love. C. To stress the benefits of a positive lifestyle. D. To recall beautiful memories spent with Nana. 7. What’s the type of the passage? A. A non-fiction. B. A book review. C. An agricultural leaflet. D. A celebrity biography. C Extremely authentic-looking prosthetic (假体的) eyes can now be 3D-printed in a fraction of the time it would normally take to produce the eyes by hand, scientists demonstrate in a new study. The new technology can create a prosthetic eye in just 90 minutes, compared with the eight hours it would normally take a skilled technician, or ocularist, to produce one by hand. The 3D-printed eyes require five times less labor to make than traditional methods, the scientists behind the technology wrote in a new paper published in the journal Nature Communications. The 3D-printed eyes also look more natural than traditional prostheses; this could help improve a patient’s self-confidence in using the devices. “Patients are very conscious about wearing a prosthesis, and they don't want others to notice,” Johann Reinhard, lead study author and a researcher at the Fraunhofer Institute for Computer Graphics Research in Germany, told us. “With these more realistic eves, it might help them to participate more in society,” he said. The new printing approach involves taking a specialized image of a patient’s empty eye socket and of their healthy eye. These images are then processed and used to draft blueprints that can be sent to be 3D-printed in the lab. These 3D-printed eyes closely replicate the color, size and structure of the patient's healthy eye and are particularly good at capturing the colored part of the eye, known as the iris, and the white part of the eye, called the sclera. Once finished, the eyes take 15 to 30 minutes to be installed by an ocularist, Reinhard said. “About 80% of adults in need of prosthetic eyes could theoretically have one made this way either due to a birth defect that causes an eye to be small or missing or because they’ve lost an eye,” the team said. “However, this wouldn’t be possible for all patients, such as those who have a very complex eye socket, as the software wouldn’t be able to find a matching shape for the prosthetic eye,” Reinhard said. “More data are needed to see if this technique could also be used to make prosthetic eyes for children,which would require more regulation,” Reinhard said. 8. Which of the following words can be best used to describe the 3D-printed eyes? A. Eco-friendly. B. Time-consuming. C. Fit-of-all. D. Realistic-looking. 9. How does the author develop his idea mainly in Paragraph 2? A. By justifying an idea. B. By giving examples. C. By providing evidence. D. By making a comparison. 10. Which statement is true about a 3D-printed eye? A. The patients prefer to show off their prosthetic eyes. B. Every adult in need of a prosthetic eye can’t possibly have one. C. It normally takes a skilled technician, or ocularist, to produce one. D The installment of one is 5 times faster than a traditional prosthetic eye. 11. Which of the following would be the best title for the text? A. 3D-printed Eyes——a Better Alternative B. 3D Printing—a Promising Technology C. 3D-printed Eyes—a Source of Confidence D. Prosthetic Eyes—the Hope for all Blind People D Is there a link between social media and depression? Do Facebook and Instagram have a negative impact on your mental health? It’s complicated. Sometimes, looking through Instagram just makes you feel bad. You try not to envy your friends, but they always seem to be traveling somewhere cool, eating something fancy, or looking cute in perfect just-rolled-out-of-bed hair. On the other hand, there are times when you laugh at funny memes (表情包), catch up with old friends, and feel happy to belong to fun social media communities. Clearly, social media isn’t all bad. People are increasingly suspecting that there’re potential problems of social media. Things like cyberbullying (网上欺凌) , screen addiction, and being exposed to endless filtered images (美颜) that make it impossible not to make comparisons between yourself and others often make the news. In July, a big study came out in the journal JAMA titled “Association of Screen Time and Depression in Adolescence.” This big headline seems to confirm what a lot of people have been saying — screen time is horrible for young people. The study followed over 3,800 adolescents over four years as part of a drug and alcohol prevention program. Part of what the investigators measured was the teens’ amount of screen time, including time spent on social media, as well as their levels of depression symptoms. One of their main findings was that higher amounts of social media use were associated with higher levels of depression. That was true both when the researches compared between people and compared each person against their own mental health over time. Case closed? Not so fast. Before we end the debate once and for all, let’s take a closer look at this and other studies. Let’s ask ourselves: what exactly is the relationship between social media use and depression? It turns out there are several warnings. 12. Why do people sometimes feel bad when looking through Instagram? A. They lack contact with old friends. B. They can travel nowhere. C. They don’t look perfect. D. They feel unbalanced. 13. Why is the article in journal JAMA mentioned? A. To comment. B. To prove. C. To suggest. D. To explore. 14. Which may agree with the findings of the study? A. Depression is related to social media use. B. Teens’ amount of screen time is limited. C. It is not easy to tell reasons for depression. D Social media contributes to physical health. 15. What’s the best title of the text? A. How to reduce depression? B. Does social media cause depression? C. Shall people reduce screen time? D. Why is it time to give up social media? 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Maximalism, as a design aesthetic (审美), is rooted in cultural shifts throughout history.

My classmates called me Incredible Dash. One day, there was a sporting event planned in my school. Well-prepared for the running competition, I took part in almost every race there was. A large number of people gathered to watch. Crowds were eager to see the running race because it was the most exciting event. When the race for 400m started, all the boys ran fast. Unsurprisingly, I finished first in the race and received a big round of applause. While it was tiring, I felt proud and was on top of my world. In the race for 200m, I ran full speed and finished the race first once again. The crowd gave thundering claps to me. I jumped all over the ground and was not bothered to give handshakes to my fellow racers. Then came the race for 100m. Discouraged by the previous races, most boys quit the race except one, a boy named Matt who was invited as an honorary runner. Matt was born with low vision but he was a determined participant of many sports. The judge came to Matt and explained the situation, asking whether he would like to quit too. I, wild with joy, thought I would win the champion without effort. However, to everyone’s surprise, Matt decided to complete the event. I sniffed (嗤之以鼻), “It is a waste of time. I bet he even doesn’t figure out where the finish line is.” The race of two started. On hearing the starting gun, both Matt and I ran to the finish line, Soon I sped up and left Matt behind. Just 30 meters before arriving at the finish line, I was expecting to receive the applause for the third time when I suffered a leg spasm (抽筋). 注意: 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I fell hard to the ground. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Arm by arm, we walked towards the finish line. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力答案: 1-5 BBCBC 6-10 CAABC 11-15 ACAAB 16-20 CAABC 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 山东省实验中学 高二年级下学期第三次学情检测英语试题 第一部分听力(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共5小题:每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

Let’s look at a few of the more unusual sites on the WHL and why it is important to preserve them.(其中包括秘鲁的库斯科、约旦的佩特拉岩城等古文化遗迹，以及意大利的罗马等古老城市中心。同样常见的还有具有艺术或文化意义的地方，比如英国的巨石阵。但是WHL包含了很多不那么明显的地点。让我们来看看世界自然保护区一些比较不寻常的地点，以及为什么保护它们很重要。)”可知，第一段列举的世界遗产的例子的作用是吸引读者对世界遗产名录上更多的独特的地方的关注。故选D。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Citadel of Haiti部分的“These ex-slaves built the monuments, which the WHL describes as “a universal symbol of liberty”.(这些曾经是奴隶的人建造了纪念碑，WHL将其描述为“自由的普遍象征”。)”可知，前奴隶修建了Citadel of Haiti。故选A。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据The city of Brasilia部分的“The WHL calls it “a land mark in the history of town planning”.(WHL称其为“城市规划史上的一个里程碑”。)”可知，最能吸引城市规划师的是The city of Brasilia。故选C。 B When I was a little boy growing up, my Mom, Dad, brothers and I lived in my Nana’s old house. It was surrounded by four huge vegetable gardens. And around the house so many flowers were planted. It was so beautiful there in the spring and summer. That wasn’t all, though. On the back porch Nana had dozens of potted plants hanging on hooks. She watered them, talked to them and nurtured them. And in the winter she would carry them all inside and set them on shelves near the windows of our enclosed front porch. There with a little water and a lot of love she kept them alive, green, and growing even during the coldest, darkest months. As a boy I was puzzled by all the effort she put into them. I understood the vegetable gardens. They helped to feed the family all winter long. I even understood the flowers around the house. They were pretty and smelled so sweet in the summer months. The reason she put so much effort into caring for those potted plants, however, eluded me. They didn’t give us any food and they rarely had any flowers on them. They remained a mystery to my child’s mind. Now as I’ve grown older I am beginning to understand why my Nana had those potted plants. It is the same reason I have so many pictures of sunrises and forests hanging in my home. They remind me during the dark, cold, winter months full of bare trees and yellow grass that light, love, and growth still exist. They remind me that Spring will come again. They remind me that God loves us and is still with us even when the earth doesn’t show it. Today I see Nana’s potted plants in a new light. They are worth every bit of the love and care she put into them. But what tells me most about light and love is Nana herself. She is light to my soul even in my darkest times. And her love lives on in my heart even if she is in Heaven. May we all learn to love as she loved, shine as she shined, and live as she lived. 4. Which of the following is close in meaning to the underlined word “eluded” in paragraph 2? A. Upset. B. Misguided. C. Confused. D. Distracted. 5. Why was Nana fond of potted plants? A. They were a sign of hope. B. They resembled sunrise and forests. C. They constantly kept Nana company. D. They were portable and easy to nurture. 6. What is the author’s purpose of writing the passage? A. To advocate growing potted plants. B. To sing the praise of Nana’s spirit and love. C. To stress the benefits of a positive lifestyle. D. To recall beautiful memories spent with Nana. 7. What’s the type of the passage? A. A non-fiction. B. A book review. C. An agricultural leaflet. D. A celebrity biography. 【答案】4. C 5. A 6. B 7. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者小时候不理解奶奶为什么喜欢盆栽，随着年龄的增长，作者明白了盆栽是希望的象征。 【4题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词前文“The reason she put so much effort into caring for those potted plants, however, eluded me.(然而，她花这么多精力照顾那些盆栽植物的原因，却eluded我摸)”和划线词后文“They didn’t give us any food and they rarely had any flowers on them. They remained a mystery to my child’s mind.(它们没有给我们任何食物，而且它们也很少开花。它们对我孩子来说仍然是个谜)”可知，作者对于Nana费心照顾这些盆栽感到困惑，因为作者认为它们没有贡献任何食物，而且也很少开花。故划线词意思是“困惑的”，故选C。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Now as I’ve grown older I am beginning to understand why my Nana had those potted plants. It is the same reason I have so many pictures of sunrises and forests hanging in my home. They remind me during the dark, cold, winter months full of bare trees and yellow grass that light, love, and growth still exist. They remind me that Spring will come again. They remind me that God loves us and is still with us even when the earth doesn’t show it.(现在，随着年龄的增长，我开始明白为什么我的祖母会有那些盆栽。这和我家里挂了那么多日出和森林的照片的原因是一样的。它们提醒我，在光秃秃的树木和黄草丛生的黑暗、寒冷的冬天，光、爱和生长仍然存在。它们提醒我春天还会再来。它们提醒我，上帝爱我们，即使在地球上没有表现出来的时候，上帝仍然与我们同在)”可知，Nana喜欢盆栽是因为它们是希望的象征。故选A。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Today I see Nana’s potted plants in a new light. They are worth every bit of the love and care she put into them. But what tells me most about light and love is Nana herself. She is light to my soul even in my darkest times. And her love lives on in my heart even if she is in Heaven. May we all learn to love as she loved, shine as she shined, and live as she lived.(今天，我以新的眼光看待奶奶的盆栽。它们值得她付出的每一点爱和关心。但最能告诉我关于光和爱的是奶奶自己。即使在我最黑暗的时候，她也是我灵魂的光。即使她身在天堂，她的爱仍在我心中。愿我们都能学会像她那样去爱，像她那样闪耀，像她那样生活)”可知，作者写这篇文章的目的是歌颂奶奶的精神和爱。故选B。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章主要讲述了作者小时候不理解奶奶为什么喜欢盆栽，随着年龄的增长，作者明白了盆栽是希望的象征。可推知，这篇文章是一篇关于奶奶的非小说类文学作品。故选A。 C Extremely authentic-looking prosthetic (假体的) eyes can now be 3D-printed in a fraction of the time it would normally take to produce the eyes by hand, scientists demonstrate in a new study. The new technology can create a prosthetic eye in just 90 minutes, compared with the eight hours it would normally take a skilled technician, or ocularist, to produce one by hand. The 3D-printed eyes require five times less labor to make than traditional methods, the scientists behind the technology wrote in a new paper published in the journal Nature Communications. The 3D-printed eyes also look more natural than traditional prostheses; this could help improve a patient’s self-confidence in using the devices. “Patients are very conscious about wearing a prosthesis, and they don't want others to notice,” Johann Reinhard, lead study author and a researcher at the Fraunhofer Institute for Computer Graphics Research in Germany, told us. “With these more realistic eves, it might help them to participate more in society,” he said. The new printing approach involves taking a specialized image of a patient’s empty eye socket and of their healthy eye. These images are then processed and used to draft blueprints that can be sent to be 3D-printed in the lab. These 3D-printed eyes closely replicate the color, size and structure of the patient's healthy eye and are particularly good at capturing the colored part of the eye, known as the iris, and the white part of the eye, called the sclera. Once finished, the eyes take 15 to 30 minutes to be installed by an ocularist, Reinhard said. “About 80% of adults in need of prosthetic eyes could theoretically have one made this way, either due to a birth defect that causes an eye to be small or missing or because they’ve lost an eye,” the team said. “However, this wouldn’t be possible for all patients, such as those who have a very complex eye socket, as the software wouldn’t be able to find a matching shape for the prosthetic eye,” Reinhard said. “More data are needed to see if this technique could also be used to make prosthetic eyes for children,which would require more regulation,” Reinhard said. 8. Which of the following words can be best used to describe the 3D-printed eyes? A. Eco-friendly. B. Time-consuming. C. Fit-of-all. D. Realistic-looking. 9. How does the author develop his idea mainly in Paragraph 2? A. By justifying an idea. B. By giving examples. C. By providing evidence. D. By making a comparison. 10. Which statement is true about a 3D-printed eye? A. The patients prefer to show off their prosthetic eyes. B. Every adult in need of a prosthetic eye can’t possibly have one. C. It normally takes a skilled technician, or ocularist, to produce one. D. The installment of one is 5 times faster than a traditional prosthetic eye. 11. Which of the following would be the best title for the text? A. 3D-printed Eyes——a Better Alternative B. 3D Printing—a Promising Technology C. 3D-printed Eyes—a Source of Confidence D. Prosthetic Eyes—the Hope for all Blind People 【答案】8. D 9. D 10. B 11. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了通过 3D打印技术制作假眼比传统手工制作更节省成本而且自然逼真，对于有需要的人来说是更好的选择。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段的“Extremely authentic-looking prosthetic eyes can now be 3D-printed in a fraction of the time it would normally take to produce the eyes by hand, scientists demonstrate in a new study.(科学家在一项新研究中证明，现在可以用3D打印技术制作出非常逼真的假眼，而其所用时间仅为手工制作假眼所需的时间的一小部分。)”可知，3D打印技术制作出的假眼是很逼真的。故选D。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段的“The new technology can create a prosthetic eye in just 90 minutes, compared with the eight hours it would normally take a skilled technician, or ocularist, to produce one by hand. The 3D-printed eyes require five times less labor to make than traditional methods, the scientists behind the technology wrote in a new paper published in the journal Nature Communications.(这项新技术可以在90分钟内制造出一只假眼，而通常情况下，熟练的技术人员或眼科医生手工制作一只假眼需要8个小时。该技术背后的科学家在《自然通讯》杂志上发表的一篇新论文中写道，与传统方法相比，3D打印眼睛所需的劳动力减少了五倍。) ”可知，作者通过比较的手段来阐述利用3D打印眼睛的技术会比传统手工制作更快更便捷。故选D。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段的““About 80% of adults in need of prosthetic eyes could theoretically have one made this way, either due to a birth defect that causes an eye to be small or missing or because they've lost an eye,” the team said. “However, this wouldn't be possible for all patients, such as those who have a very complex eye socket, as the software wouldn't be able to find a matching shape for the prosthetic eye,” Reinhard said.(研究小组说：“理论上，大约80%需要假眼的成年人可以这样做，要么是因为出生缺陷导致眼睛小或缺失，要么是因为他们失去了一只眼睛。”“然而，这并不适用于所有患者，比如那些眼窝非常复杂的患者，因为软件无法找到与假眼匹配的形状，”Reinhard说。)”可知，由于有些人眼窝结构复杂，因此不是每个需要假眼的成年人都能拥有一只。故选B。 11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，根据第一段的“Extremely authentic-looking prosthetic eyes can now be 3D-printed in a fraction of the time it would normally take to produce the eyes by hand, scientists demonstrate in a new study.(科学家在一项新研究中证明，现在可以用3D打印技术制作出非常逼真的假眼，而其所用时间仅为手工制作假眼所需的时间的一小部分。)”和第二段的“The new technology can create a prosthetic eye in just 90 minutes, compared with the eight hours it would normally take a skilled technician, or ocularist, to produce one by hand.

Do Facebook and Instagram have a negative impact on your mental health? It’s complicated. Sometimes, looking through Instagram just makes you feel bad. You try not to envy your friends, but they always seem to be traveling somewhere cool, eating something fancy, or looking cute in perfect just-rolled-out-of-bed hair. On the other hand, there are times when you laugh at funny memes (表情包), catch up with old friends, and feel happy to belong to fun social media communities. Clearly, social media isn’t all bad. People are increasingly suspecting that there’re potential problems of social media. Things like cyberbullying (网上欺凌) , screen addiction, and being exposed to endless filtered images (美颜) that make it impossible not to make comparisons between yourself and others often make the news. In July, a big study came out in the journal JAMA titled “Association of Screen Time and Depression in Adolescence.” This big headline seems to confirm what a lot of people have been saying — screen time is horrible for young people. The study followed over 3,800 adolescents over four years as part of a drug and alcohol prevention program. Part of what the investigators measured was the teens’ amount of screen time, including time spent on social media, as well as their levels of depression symptoms. One of their main findings was that higher amounts of social media use were associated with higher levels of depression. That was true both when the researches compared between people and compared each person against their own mental health over time. Case closed? Not so fast. Before we end the debate once and for all, let’s take a closer look at this and other studies. Let’s ask ourselves: what exactly is the relationship between social media use and depression? It turns out there are several warnings. 12. Why do people sometimes feel bad when looking through Instagram? A. They lack contact with old friends. B. They can travel nowhere. C. They don’t look perfect. D. They feel unbalanced. 13. Why is the article in journal JAMA mentioned? A. To comment. B. To prove. C. To suggest. D. To explore. 14. Which may agree with the findings of the study? A. Depression is related to social media use. B. Teens’ amount of screen time is limited. C. It is not easy to tell reasons for depression. D. Social media contributes to physical health. 15. What’s the best title of the text? A. How to reduce depression? B. Does social media cause depression? C. Shall people reduce screen time? D. Why is it time to give up social media? 【答案】12. D 13. B 14. A 15. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文。本文主要讲述了关于青少年使用社交媒体与其抑郁症之间因果关系的一些研究调查，强调了其间因果关系的复杂性。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Sometimes, looking through Instagram just makes you feel bad. You try not to envy your friends, but they always seem to be traveling somewhere cool, eating something fancy, or looking cute in perfect just-rolled-out-of-bed hair.(有时候，浏览社交平台会让你感觉很糟糕。你尽量不嫉妒你的朋友，但他们似乎总是去一个很酷的地方旅行，吃一些很好吃的东西，或者拥有刚刚卷起来的完美发型看起来很可爱。)”可知，浏览社交网站看到朋友的令人羡慕的内容，会使自己感到心理不平衡而心情糟糕。故选D项。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“In July, a big study came out in the journal JAMA titled “Association of Screen Time and Depression in Adolescence.” This big headline seems to confirm what a lot of people have been saying — screen time is horrible for young people.(今年7月，《美国医学会杂志》(JAMA)发表了一项名为《屏幕时间与青春期抑郁的关系》的大型研究。这个大标题似乎证实了很多人一直在说的——屏幕时间对年轻人来说是可怕的。)”可知，该文章证实了屏幕时间对年轻人来说是可怕的，从而支持了本段论点：“People are increasingly suspect that there’re the potential problems of social media.(人们越来越怀疑社交媒体的潜在问题)”，故推知，提及《美国医学会杂志》的这篇文章是为了证明论点。故选B项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“One of their main findings was that higher amounts of social media use were associated with higher levels of depression.(他们主要发现之一是，社交媒体使用时间越长，抑郁程度越高。)”可知，抑郁症与社交媒体的使用有关。故选A项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Is there a link between social media and depression? Do Facebook and Instagram have a negative impact on your mental health? It’s complicated.(社交媒体和抑郁症之间有联系吗？Facebook和Instagram对你的心理健康有负面影响吗？它是复杂的。)”以及全文可知，本文主要讨论了关于青少年使用社交媒体与其抑郁症之间因果关系的一些研究调查，强调了其间因果关系的复杂性。B项“社交媒体会导致抑郁症吗？”贴合主旨要义，为最佳标题。故选B项。 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Maximalism, as a design aesthetic (审美), is rooted in cultural shifts throughout history.

My classmates called me Incredible Dash. One day, there was a sporting event planned in my school. Well-prepared for the running competition, I took part in almost every race there was. A large number of people gathered to watch. Crowds were eager to see the running race because it was the most exciting event. When the race for 400m started, all the boys ran fast. Unsurprisingly, I finished first in the race and received a big round of applause. While it was tiring, I felt proud and was on top of my world. In the race for 200m, I ran full speed and finished the race first once again. The crowd gave thundering claps to me. I jumped all over the ground and was not bothered to give handshakes to my fellow racers. Then came the race for 100m. Discouraged by the previous races, most boys quit the race except one, a boy named Matt who was invited as an honorary runner. Matt was born with low vision but he was a determined participant of many sports. The judge came to Matt and explained the situation, asking whether he would like to quit too. I, wild with joy, thought I would win the champion without effort. However, to everyone’s surprise, Matt decided to complete the event. I sniffed (嗤之以鼻), “It is a waste of time. I bet he even doesn’t figure out where the finish line is.” The race of two started. On hearing the starting gun, both Matt and I ran to the finish line, Soon I sped up and left Matt behind. Just 30 meters before arriving at the finish line, I was expecting to receive the applause for the third time when I suffered a leg spasm (抽筋). 注意: 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I fell hard to the ground. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Arm by arm, we walked towards the finish line. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】I fell hard to the ground. At this moment I felt sad and ashamed that I couldn’t finish the race. I lay on the ground unwilling to face the fact and the crowds. I imagined the sneering faces and don’t know how to react. Suddenly a hand reached out to me. I raised my head and found it’s Matt. “Let’s run together.” he said. There was just sincerity on his face, no mock. I believed I should trust him, and gave him my hand. Arm by arm, we walked towards the finish line. The crowds fell into silence,and then broke into loud applause. What did they applaud for? I think I know. Bowing to Matt, I thanked Matt for his help and admitted he was the champion. “No, I participate in the race not for the champion, just for the participation. You are very excellent.” he said. I was surprised at first, and then realized that the full engagement and good faith deserved the real champion. 【解析】 【导语】本文以时间为线索展开。作者是一名短跑选手，几乎可以赢得所参加过的每一次比赛，在同学中享受盛名，但是在一次比赛中，其他同学因为作者的实力感到气馁，都退出了比赛，只剩下一名叫马特的同学和作者比赛，作者一开始很是轻视，但是在比赛中作者的腿突然抽筋，在马特的帮助下走到了终点线，作者也终于明白什么才是真正的冠军。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我重重地摔倒在地。”可知，第一段可描写作者感到很难堪，这时马特伸出援手。 ②由第二段首句内容“我们手挽着手朝终点线走去。”可知，第二段可描写作者非常感激马特，也明白了什么才是真正的冠军。 2.续写线索：摔倒在地——羞愧难堪——伸出援手——一起走——鼓掌——道谢——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①.完成：finish/complete ②.发现：find/discover ③.信任：trust /believe in 情绪类 ①.不情愿的：unwilling/reluctant ②.嘲讽的：sneering/sarcastic 【点睛】[高分句型1] Bowing to Matt, I thanked Matt for his help and admitted he was the champion.
