Ⅰ.阅读理解
Today,many people spend a lot of time reading online,whether reading news,social media,or ebooks.While online reading opens up a lot of knowledge to people,there are some drawbacks,too.These include eyestrain,headaches,as well as difficulty in even finishing reading the text.Now a new reading plugin(插件) has been intended to help people overcome these problems and read faster online.
The reading plugin called Bionic Reading,which was developed by Swiss designer Renato Casutt,was created with the belief that your brain can read faster than your eyes.The plugin makes the first few letters of each word in bold(粗体),which actually allows your eyes to skip over parts of the text and your brain to fill in what is missing.Incredibly,reading like this feels like finally unlocking 100 percent of people's brain.
Casutt came up with the plugin by accident.He was reading a book in a foreign language and realized he could read it faster and well master it if he separated it into parts.He has worked for six years to develop Bionic Reading and is still working to perfect it.Many people who want to strengthen their reading ability show interest in it,but more research is needed before it can be definitively shown that the system improves reading ability.But people with dyslexia(诵读障碍) have confirmed that Bionic Reading did help them focus on what they are reading.
Casutt's goal is to integrate the plugin into all reading apps and online services.“In a digital world dominated(支配) by shallow forms of reading,Bionic Reading aims to encourage a more indepth reading and understanding of written content,” he said.Bionic Reading is available in several apps like Fiery Feeds,Lire,and Next App.The best way to know if it helps you read better online is to try it yourself and find out what it is all about.
[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文。Casutt发明了一种新插件,它可以帮助人们克服在线阅读时眼睛疲劳、头痛等问题,并提高在线阅读速度。

[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文。相关研究表明,在周末的时候不使用电子设备的人在生活方面更容易获得满足感。
1.higher [考查形容词的比较级。根据后文中的than可知,此处应该使用形容词的比较级。故填higher。]
2.equipment [考查名词。根据空前的形容词electronic可知,此处应该填名词;equip的名词形式为equipment,且为不可数名词。故填equipment。]
3.believed [考查动词的时态。根据空前的时间状语从句可推知,此处应使用一般过去时。故填believed。]
4.addicted [考查形容词。根据空处上下文语境可推知,此处句意是“但是如今我们对它们上瘾了”,因此应填形容词,be addicted to为固定搭配,意为“对……上瘾”。故填addicted。]
5.in [考查介词。in every way为固定搭配,意为“在各个方面”。故填in。]
6.or [考查连词。分析句子结构可知,句中brushing和making并列,且为选择关系,因此使用or。故填or。]
7.their [考查代词。根据空后的phones可知,此处应使用形容词性物主代词,修饰名词。故填their。]

9.to be [考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,空处为非谓语,修饰前面的抽象名词potential,其后catastrophic为形容词,因此填to be表将来。故填to be。]
10.connected [考查非谓语动词。句中的谓语动词为seem,故空处应是非谓语,又因为“The potential for addiction”及“the loss of human interaction”是动作的承受者,因此使用过去分词表示逻辑上的动宾关系。故填connected。]
