02 Period II Discovering Useful Structures—Reading for Writing Part Ⅱ 拓展阅读训练 1 A [安徽江南十校2024高一联考] The rise of digital technology has completely transformed the way students live their lives. From the way they socialise to the way they learn, digital technology has become a necessary part of campus life. Then how has digital technology transformed students’ campus life? On the one hand, the use of social media has made it easier for students to keep in touch with their peers off campus. Some social platforms have become popular among students, allowing them to share their daily lives, engage in online conversations, and form virtual communities. Meanwhile, digital technology has also changed the way students communicate with their instructors. With email and online chat platforms, students can easily contact their teachers for clarification on assignments, grades, and course content. This has improved communication between students and faculty, leading to a better learning experience. 刷阅读理解 2 On the other hand, digital technology has also revolutionised the way students learn. With online courses and virtual classrooms, students can access a variety of courses from the comfort of their own homes. This has opened up opportunities for students to pursue their passions and interests outside of their majors. Actually, it has made it easier to promote and participate in multiple campus events. Students can easily create online campaigns to promote events, organise events using online calendars, and even stream events live over the Internet. This has made it possible for more students to get involved and participate in various campus events. Another benefit which is often ignored is its positive impact on their mental health. With online resources, such as anxiety apps and depression support groups, students can deal with stress and anxiety. They can seek help when in need, as online counselling services are available 24/7. Digital technology has transformed campus life in numerous ways. While digital technology has brought many benefits, it has also raised concerns about its negative impact on student life. 刷阅读理解 3 【语篇导读】本文是一篇议论文，主要论述了随着数字技术的普及，学生的校园生活、交流方式以及学习方式也在随之改变。 1.What phenomenon does the author describe at the beginning of the text?( ) D A.Types of campus life.

In fact there is a lot of research that shows these criticisms are generally unfounded. Research by the Pew Internet and American Life Project found that people are not replacing offline friends with online companions but are using them to support their offline relationships. However, there is one part of social networking that is deeply worrying. We find ourselves in a hyper-connected world where people access social media day and night, excited to make announcements about the tiniest details of their lives. Research is starting to show that this culture is negatively affecting not our friendships but our character. 刷阅读理解 9 Professor Larry Rosen, in his book iDisorder, says that young people who overuse social networking sites can become vain, aggressive. But perhaps an even more disturbing effect is that one of our most basic emotions seems to be disappearing—empathy. This is the emotion that bonds us together; it allows us to see the world from our friends’ points of view. Without it, we are far less able to connect and form meaningful adult relationships. Sherry Turkle, a professor of Social Studies of Science and Technology at MIT, suggests that people are no longer comfortable being alone. This is something confirmed by a study where 200 university students were asked to go without social media for 24 hours. Many admitted an addiction to their online social network; most complained that they felt cut off from their family and friends. But being alone is a time, Turkle argues, when we self-reflect and get in touch with who we really are. It is only when we do this that we can make meaningful friendships with others. She believes, as is the title of her book, that we are simply “Alone Together”. 刷阅读理解 10 These potential changes in our characters are rather disturbing. If nothing is done, our young people could well be in trouble. Therefore, suggestions about ways to encourage our young people to avoid the problems of social networking should be made, so they can develop the kinds of friendships that are required to grow into well-adjusted and happy adults. 刷阅读理解 11 【语篇导读】本文是一篇议论文。社交网络有助于让我们与更加多元的人交流，提升我们的幸福感，但研究开始表明，沉迷于社交网络会对青少年的性格产生负面影响。 1.What does the underlined word “unfounded” in paragraph 1 probably mean?( ) B A.Undoubted. B.False. C.Acceptable. D.Illegal. 解析 词义猜测题。根据画线词上文的The biggest criticism of social networking is that our young people are losing their offline friends to online friends.可知，目前人们对社交网络最大的批评是社交网络会让人们失去线下的朋友。结合下文的Research by… found that people are not replacing offline friends with online companions but are using them to support their offline relationships.可知，人们没有用网络伴侣取代线下的朋友，而是用他们来支持自己的线下关系，这是对画线词上文观点的一种否定。由此推测出，unfounded意为“无事实依据的；站住脚的”，与false最接近。故选B项。 刷阅读理解 12 2.What can we learn from the passage?( ) D A.The advantages of social media outweigh the disadvantages. B.Young people tend to develop offline friendships. C.Young people can’t go without social media. D.We are becoming unable to understand others well. 解析 推理判断题。根据第三段中的But perhaps an even more disturbing effect is that one of our most basic emotions seems to be disappearing—empathy… Without it, we are far less able to connect and form meaningful adult relationships.可知，我们的同情心能够让我们与朋友建立联系，从朋友的角度认识世界，如果没有同情心，我们就很难建立起有意义的人际关系。由此可推测出，同情心的消失让我们变得无法很好地理解他人。故选D项。 刷阅读理解 13 3.According to Sherry Turkle, how can we make meaningful friendships with others?( ) C A.By getting in touch with online friends. B.By avoiding the problems of social networking. C.By reflecting and getting in touch with ourselves. D.By having discussions with a much more diverse set of people. 解析 细节理解题。根据第四段中的But being alone is a time, Turkle argues, when we self-reflect and get in touch with who we really are. It is only when we do this that we can make meaningful friendships with others.可知，谢里·特克认为与他人建立有意义的友谊的方式是自我反思并了解自我。故选C项。 刷阅读理解 14 4.What does the passage mainly talk about?( ) D A.Internet culture causes various problems. B.We are losing some most important emotions. C.Online friendships do good to offline friendships.
