Ⅰ.阅读理解 A An Atlanta mother is making her kids work hard for their money.Instead of giving them an allowance，Shaketha Marion McGregor is giving them actual job titles and duties.Her innovative idea that she posted on Facebook has been shared over 114，000 times. In a selfie (自拍照)，the mother of three showed that she was now “hiring” for three positions：laundry supervisor，lead housekeeper and kitchen manager for her company called “This Mom Means Business”．The photo also showed that she would be holding interviews for these jobs.The applicants？Her three kids: Jahkeem，13，Takeia，10，and Serinity，6. McGregor said the interviews went smoothly.To her surprise，the youngest was the most professional.“Jahkeem almost laughed the entire time，which caused me to laugh a lot，too.It was tons of fun.His only questions were，‘How much do I get paid？How often do I get paid？And do I have to pay tax？’” The kids are handling the responsibilities of their new job duties pretty well so far，though it has only been about a week.McGregor says they're anxiously awaiting their first paycheck.The mother said she came up with the idea after she had to replace a lot of items she lost during a tragedy.“We lost a lot of things last year in a house fire and I've been really working hard to recover the things that we need，” McGregor said.“And my kids continued to ask for things that they want so I figured it would be best to have them earn it.” [语篇解读]　本文是一篇记叙文。一位母亲为了培养孩子们的理财观，给他们实际的职务和职责，让他们通过付出劳动来赚取所需之物。 1．Why does the Atlanta mother conduct interviews? A．To hire some people for her company. B．To reduce her own pressure from work. C．To let her kids earn money through labor. D．To help her kids know how to save money. 解析　细节理解题。根据第一段第一句可知，这位母亲让她的孩子们努力工作来赚钱，所以她举办面试是为了让她的孩子们通过劳动赚钱。 答案　C 2．What do we know from the photo mentioned in paragraph 2? A．The way the kids do their duties. B．The positions that may be applied for. C．How the kids get along with each other. D．How the kids compete for the jobs. 解析　细节理解题。根据第二段的“In a selfie (自拍照)，the mother of three showed that she was now ‘hiring’ for three positions：laundry supervisor，lead housekeeper and kitchen manager”可知，这张自拍照展示了孩子们可以应聘的职位。 答案　B 3．Who performed best in the interview? A．Takeia.　　　 B．Shaketha. C．Jahkeem. D．Serinity. 解析　细节理解题。根据倒数第二段的“To her surprise，the youngest was the most professional.”可知，在面试过程中，最小的孩子是最专业的，Serinity最小，所以Serinity在面试中表现最佳。 答案　D 4．What happened to the family? A．They suffered a fire. B．They lost their home. C．The father died in a tragedy. D．They moved to a new city. 解析　细节理解题。根据最后一段的“We lost a lot of things last year in a house fire”可知，McGregor家里因为一场大火损失了很多东西，所以McGregor家曾遭受过大火。 答案　A B You know the feeling—you have left your phone at home and feel anxious，as if you have lost your connection to the world.“Nomophobia” (无手机恐惧症) affects teenagers and adults alike.You can even do an online test to see if you have it.Last week，researchers from Hong Kong warned that nomophobia is infecting everyone.Their study found that people who use their phones to store，share and access personal memories suffer most.When users were asked to describe how they felt about their phones，words such as “hurt” (neck pain was often reported) and “alone” predicted higher levels of nomophobia. “The findings of our study suggest that users regard smartphones as their extended selves and get attached to the devices，” said Dr.Kim Ki Joon.“People experience feelings of anxiety and unpleasantness when separated from their phones.” Meanwhile，an American study shows that smartphone separation can lead to an increase in heart rate and blood pressure. So can being without your phone really give you separation anxiety? Professor Mark Griffiths，psychologist and director of the International Gaming Research Unit at Nottingham Trent University，says it is what is on the phone that counts — the social networking that creates Fomo (fear of missing out). “We are talking about an Internet­connected device that allows people to deal with lots of aspects of their lives，” says Griffiths.“You would have to surgically remove a phone from a teenager because their whole life is ingrained in this device.” Griffiths thinks attachment theory，where we develop emotional dependency on the phone because it holds details of our lives，is a small part of nomophobia.For “screenagers”，it is Fomo that creates the most separation anxiety.If they can't see what's happening on Snapchat or Instagram，they become panic­stricken about not knowing what's going on socially.“But they adapt very quickly if you take them on holiday and there's no Internet，” says Griffiths. [语篇解读]　手机没带在身边，你是不是总感觉少了点什么？研究发现，人们对手机的依赖性越来越强，很多人都患上了“无手机恐惧症”，文章讲述了导致这种症状发生的原因。 5．Which of the following may Dr.Kim Ki Joon agree with? A．We waste too much time on phones. B．Phones have become part of some users. C．Addiction to phones makes memories suffer. D．Phones and blood pressure are closely linked. 解析　推理判断题。根据第二段中的“The findings of our study...the devices”可推知，金基俊博士认为手机用户已经把智能手机看作是自我的延伸，是自己不可分割的一部分。 答案　B 6．Why do we get nomophobia according to Griffiths? A．Because we are accustomed to having a phone on us. B．Because we need our phones to help us store information. C．Because we worry we may miss out what our friends are doing. D．Because we fear without phones we will run into a lot of trouble. 解析　细节理解题。根据第三段中的“it is what is on the phone that counts—the social networking that creates Fomo (fear of missing out)”可知，手机上的东西才是最重要的，社交网络让人们害怕错过朋友们发的东西，担心不知道朋友们在做什么。 答案　C 7．Which of the following phrases has the closest meaning to the underlined phrase “ingrained in” in paragraph 4? A．Relied on.　　　　 B．Opposed to. C．Approved of. D．Determined by. 解析　词义猜测题。根据第四段内容可知，年轻人很难摆脱手机是因为他们现在的整个生活都跟手机有关，他们的生活很多方面都要依靠手机。 答案　A 8．Where can you probably find the above passage? A．In a health magazine. B．In a fashion brochure. C．In a science textbook. D．In a popular science magazine. 解析　文章出处题。通读全文可知，文章介绍了最新的关于“无手机恐惧症”的研究以及原因剖析。由此可推知，应该出现在科学报纸或杂志中。 答案　D Ⅱ.完形填空 There came Bryan's favorite game time.He sat back on the couch (沙发) and began to 1 ．As Bryan was playing，his mom walked through the room to see what he was doing.“Don't let the video game turn you into a couch potato，” Mom said.Bryan didn't reply and 2 his eyes on the flashing television screen.He gripped (抓) his controller tightly and pushed the buttons hard.
