As a child I was one of the 125 people at our family get-together for New Year. These days we were a much smaller group in Belle Valley, Ohio. I insisted on acting as hostess and wanted to bring back the joy I’d felt at my childhood New Year that filled with love.
As family members arrived at the hall, I handed each one of them a numbered card and said, “Time for the alphabet (字母表) game.” “What kind of game is that?” one of my great-grandchildren asked. “Well,” I said, “who’s got number one?” A cousin raised her hand. “Tell us something you never forget,” I said. “Something that begins with the letter A.” My cousin smiled. “Apple pie!” she said. Great-granddaughter Mindy was next. “B,” she said. “I am impressed by Buckeye Country.” “Cookies!” Number 3 shouted.
Until N umber 17, “The next one’s a challenge,” I said. “Who’s got 17?” Ryan, my son, slowly raised his hand. “Q,” he said. “Quaker City Carnival (狂欢节).” The room went silent. “It’s one of the oldest traditions in Ohio,” Ryan said. “Grandma and Grandpa met there. That’s where they fell in love. That’s where this whole thing started. This whole family.” Ryan looked around the room, making eye contact with everyone. “We wouldn’t be here celebrating New Year together if it wasn’t for Quaker City Carnival.”
The room burst into laughter and was full of love. “This is the best New Year we’ve ever had,” a great-grandson said to me secretly. Whatever their New Year would look like when they grew up, they’d remember this one. And for me, I had an unforgettable New Year to treasure—a memory where love started with the letter Q.
4. Why did the author want to organize the alphabet game?

Are you looking for some excitement in your life? How about trying a new hobby that gets your heart racing?
You might enjoy running, right? Well, then you’ re already on the right track to becoming a trail runner(越野跑选手). It is not so hard as you think. All you need to do is just taking your runs off the pavement(人行道)and explore some hilly or mountainous trails. Trail running has gained popularity in recent years and offers a great way to connect with nature while getting a challenging workout.
Not adventurous enough for you? How about trying rock climbing? Climbers climb walls or natural rock formations, using their strength and problem-solving skills. There’s no age limit for this sport, and it can be a great way to build confidence and overcome fears. For example, Sarah, a young girl from a small town, started rock climbing at the age of 12 and has since fallen in love with the sport. She says. “Every time I reach the top of a climb, I feel a sense of success that’s hard to describe.”
Some people take their adventures to even greater heights by trying wingsuit flying. In this extreme sport, participants(参与者)wear a special suit that allows them to fly through the air like a bird. It requires a lot of training and courage, as there are significant risks involved. However, for those who show interest in it, there is no feeling like flying freely.
It seems that people are always coming up with new and exciting ways to challenge themselves and experience the excitement of adventure. Whether it’s paragliding, whitewater rafting, or even urban exploration, there’s something out there for everyone.
8. What can we learn from the passage about trail running?
A. It’s too annoying. B. It’s not that difficult.
C. It’s very challenging. D. It’s rather boring.
9. Why does the author mention the example in paragraph 3?
A. To prevent readers from trying rock climbing.
B. To stress the physical condition required for rock climbing.
C. To explain that only young girls can succeed in rock climbing.
D. To show that rock climbing can make people confident and brave.
10. What does the underlined word “It” in paragraph 4 refer to?
A. Trail running. B. Wingsuit flying.
C. Rock climbing. D. Flying following birds.
11. Why do people try these extreme sports?
A. To show off their skills and abilities.
B. To increase their size of social circle.
C. To seek for joy and challenge themselves.
D. To become well-known and gain popularity.
D
In the present digital age, we are constantly surrounded by technology. But have you noticed how our usage of certain devices(设备)has changed over time? Let’s take smartphones as an example. How often do we really use them for their original intended purpose: making calls? It seems that the culture of using phones for calling is gradually disappearing. What has caused this change, and what are the results?
“People are using their phones for everything except making calls, ” said Jane Smith, a professor from America. “The once common act of picking up the phone to have a conversation is becoming less and less frequent.”
There are several reasons for this change. One major factor is the use of alternative(可替代的)communication. Messaging apps, which can send texts, images, videos, and even voice messages, offer a more convenient and flexible way to communicate. In addition, social media platforms and video conferencing tools have made it easier to stay connected with people in different ways.
Another reason is the increase in unwanted calls. Many people are tired of receiving calls from telemarketers or automated systems that they don’t want, These spam calls have made people less likely to answer their phones, even when it’s a normal call.
As the phone call culture fades away, it raises questions about its influence on our social interactions. In the past, a shared home phone was a central point for family communication. It brought family members together and provided a sense of connection. However, with the rise of individual smartphones, people are more isolated and less likely to have face-to-face conversations.
Professor John Doe, an expert in communication studies, said, “The reduction of phone calls means we are losing a form of communication that was once very important for building relationships and keeping social connections. We need to find new ways to reconnect and communicate in a meaningful way.”
Of course, technology is always changing, and we must get used to these changes. While the disappearance of phone call culture may have its disadvantages, it also creates opportunities for new forms of communication and connection.
12. Why do people use phones less for calling?
A. Because making calls is now very expensive.
B. Because it’s not convenient to carry phones around.
C. Because there are now lots of other ways to communicate.
D. Because the signals on phones are not very good.
13. What can we learn from Professor John Doe’s words?
A. We are using smartphones instead of traditional home phones.
B. We should try to spread the culture of phone conversations.
C. Modern forms of communication are not so important.
D. Fewer phone calls have a bad influence on our social connections.
14. What is the author’s attitude towards the changing phone culture?
A. Objective. B. Worried. C. Positive. D. Satisfied.
15 What is the text mainly about?
A. The big changes in communication methods.
B. The bad effects of smartphones on our lives.
C. The gradual disappearance of the phone call culture.
D. The rapid development of technology and its effects.

As a child I was one of the 125 people at our family get-together for New Year. These days we were a much smaller group in Belle Valley, Ohio. I insisted on acting as hostess and wanted to bring back the joy I’d felt at my childhood New Year that filled with love.
As family members arrived at the hall, I handed each one of them a numbered card and said, “Time for the alphabet (字母表) game.” “What kind of game is that?” one of my great-grandchildren asked. “Well,” I said, “who’s got number one?” A cousin raised her hand. “Tell us something you never forget,” I said. “Something that begins with the letter A.” My cousin smiled. “Apple pie!” she said. Great-granddaughter Mindy was next. “B,” she said. “I am impressed by Buckeye Country.” “Cookies!” Number 3 shouted.
Until N umber 17, “The next one’s a challenge,” I said. “Who’s got 17?” Ryan, my son, slowly raised his hand. “Q,” he said. “Quaker City Carnival (狂欢节).” The room went silent. “It’s one of the oldest traditions in Ohio,” Ryan said. “Grandma and Grandpa met there. That’s where they fell in love. That’s where this whole thing started. This whole family.” Ryan looked around the room, making eye contact with everyone. “We wouldn’t be here celebrating New Year together if it wasn’t for Quaker City Carnival.”
The room burst into laughter and was full of love. “This is the best New Year we’ve ever had,” a great-grandson said to me secretly. Whatever their New Year would look like when they grew up, they’d remember this one. And for me, I had an unforgettable New Year to treasure—a memory where love started with the letter Q.

Are you looking for some excitement in your life? How about trying a new hobby that gets your heart racing?
You might enjoy running, right? Well, then you’ re already on the right track to becoming a trail runner(越野跑选手). It is not so hard as you think. All you need to do is just taking your runs off the pavement(人行道)and explore some hilly or mountainous trails. Trail running has gained popularity in recent years and offers a great way to connect with nature while getting a challenging workout.
Not adventurous enough for you? How about trying rock climbing? Climbers climb walls or natural rock formations, using their strength and problem-solving skills. There’s no age limit for this sport, and it can be a great way to build confidence and overcome fears. For example, Sarah, a young girl from a small town, started rock climbing at the age of 12 and has since fallen in love with the sport. She says. “Every time I reach the top of a climb, I feel a sense of success that’s hard to describe.”

It requires a lot of training and courage, as there are significant risks involved. However, for those who show interest in it, there is no feeling like flying freely.
It seems that people are always coming up with new and exciting ways to challenge themselves and experience the excitement of adventure. Whether it’s paragliding, whitewater rafting, or even urban exploration, there’s something out there for everyone.

In the present digital age, we are constantly surrounded by technology. But have you noticed how our usage of certain devices(设备)has changed over time? Let’s take smartphones as an example. How often do we really use them for their original intended purpose: making calls? It seems that the culture of using phones for calling is gradually disappearing. What has caused this change, and what are the results?
“People are using their phones for everything except making calls, ” said Jane Smith, a professor from America. “The once common act of picking up the phone to have a conversation is becoming less and less frequent.”
There are several reasons for this change. One major factor is the use of alternative(可替代的)communication. Messaging apps, which can send texts, images, videos, and even voice messages, offer a more convenient and flexible way to communicate. In addition, social media platforms and video conferencing tools have made it easier to stay connected with people in different ways.
Another reason is the increase in unwanted calls. Many people are tired of receiving calls from telemarketers or automated systems that they don’t want, These spam calls have made people less likely to answer their phones, even when it’s a normal call.
As the phone call culture fades away, it raises questions about its influence on our social interactions. In the past, a shared home phone was a central point for family communication. It brought family members together and provided a sense of connection. However, with the rise of individual smartphones, people are more isolated and less likely to have face-to-face conversations.
Professor John Doe, an expert in communication studies, said, “The reduction of phone calls means we are losing a form of communication that was once very important for building relationships and keeping social connections. We need to find new ways to reconnect and communicate in a meaningful way.”
Of course, technology is always changing, and we must get used to these changes. While the disappearance of phone call culture may have its disadvantages, it also creates opportunities for new forms of communication and connection.
12. Why do people use phones less for calling?
A. Because making calls is now very expensive.
B. Because it’s not convenient to carry phones around.
C. Because there are now lots of other ways to communicate.
D. Because the signals on phones are not very good.
13. What can we learn from Professor John Doe’s words?
A. We are using smartphones instead of traditional home phones.
B. We should try to spread the culture of phone conversations.
C. Modern forms of communication are not so important.
D. Fewer phone calls have a bad influence on our social connections.
14. What is the author’s attitude towards the changing phone culture?
A. Objective. B. Worried. C. Positive. D. Satisfied.
15. What is the text mainly about?
A. The big changes in communication methods.
B. The bad effects of smartphones on our lives.
C. The gradual disappearance of the phone call culture.
D. The rapid development of technology and its effects.
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. A 15. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了电话文化正在消失并分析了电话文化消失背后的原因以及影响。
