This fall,Apple will roll out its newest update. It will offer parents greater control over content of their kids' views. Additionally,it will track the amount of time they spend using an iOS device.Following Google's lead to deal with smartphone addiction (上瘾),new tools will include increased monitoring,usage time and activity reports.
Currently,Apple's parental controls only allow for limiting usage of adult apps,music and video. There is growing public concern over unlimited exposure to social media for young people. Smartphone addiction combined with increased rates of distraction,suicide,and depression in teens led Apple to respond. It has developed better tools for monitoring content and control over iOS device usage for parents. For moms and dads looking to manage on how their teens access iOS devices more effectively,the Screen Time,App Limits,and Down Time features will be of particular help.
Screen Time will generate daily and weekly reports detailing how many times users pick up their devices,the categories of apps and websites they use most often and the amount of time they spend interacting with each app.
According to public statements,Apple intends these reports to help users get a greater understanding of how they use their devices. They're also intended to assist in making personal decisions about controls they'd like to have. This is especially helpful to parents who aren't privy (准许知情) to specific apps and websites their kid is using or how long they use them each day. The new App Limits feature allows parents to set limits on time spent on websites,apps or a category of apps.
Also,parents will be able to set time periods for their child's phone to be powered off. Down Time can be scheduled on devices. Parents can specify which and when apps can and can't be used . If parents want to limit access to an entire category of apps,such as social media or gaming,during specified time periods for things like homework,dinner,or bedtime,they can use Down Time.
The new parental controls are accountbased. Parents can access Screen Time to view reports and set limits on their teen's device remotely (远程地) via devices connected through Family Sharing or directly from their teens' device.
Totals for settings,usage reports,and limits set are based on usage across all of a user's iOS devices. Thus,if a kid uses multiple iOS devices,he or she will reach a time limit on an app on his or her iPhone. The app will be inaccessible on their iPads as well. A screen notification will appear when a child is about to reach a time limit.The child can request more time from a parent.
This update is good news for those who wish to have better insight into teen smartphone usage.Parents,however,should keep communicating rules and guidelines for healthy tech habits.
[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文。苹果公司面临着解决日益严重的社会问题的公众压力决定发布更新消息。苹果公司的最新更新可以帮助父母监控孩子的手机使用情况。
1.According to the second paragraph,why did Apple decide to release this update?
A.The technology has developed a lot since the last update.
B.Apple is under public pressure to solve a growing social problem.
C.Teens' growing mental problems make iPhone unpopular among parents.
D.The current iOS devices help little in limiting teens' exposure to adult apps.
解析:B [推理判断题。根据第二段中“Currently,Apple's parental controls only allow for limiting usage of adult apps,music and video.There is growing public concern over unlimited exposure to social media for young people.”可知,苹果公司之所以决定发布这个更新是因为苹果公司面临着解决日益严重的社会问题的公众压力。故选B。]
2.Which word has the similar meaning to the underlined word “notification” in the seventh paragraph?
A.Warning. B.Note.
C.Figure. D.Post.
解析:A [词义猜测题。根据倒数第二段中“The app will be inaccessible on their iPads as well.A screen notification will appear when a child is about to reach a time limit.The child can request more time from a parent.”可知这款应用程序在他们的iPad上也无法使用。当孩子使用智能手机快到要求的时间时,屏幕上会显示一个通知。孩子可以向父母要求更多的时间。由此可推知画线词的意思是“警告,通知”。故选A。]
3.What can we infer from the last two paragraphs?
A.This new update alone cannot help teens develop healthy tech habits.
B.Kids with addiction to social media may also be satisfied with this update.
C.There's no chance for parents to give more time if the kid reaches the limit.
D.If a kid reaches a time limit on his/her iPhone,he/she can go on to use iPad.
解析:A [推理判断题。根据最后两段,对于那些希望更好地了解青少年智能手机使用情况的人来说,这次更新是个好消息。然而,父母们应该不断地交流关于健康的科技习惯的规则和指导方针,因此尤其是最后一段可知,仅仅指望这个新的更新并不能帮助青少年养成健康的科技习惯。故选A。]
4.Which of the following would be the best title of this passage?
A.Parents Find Ways to Control the Screen Time of Their Kids
B.Apple Follows Google's Lead to Have More Functions
C.Parents Should Have Greater Control over the Usage of Smartphones
D.Apple's Newest Update Helps Parents Monitor Kids' Cellphone Usage
解析:D [标题归纳题。根据第一段中“This fall,Apple will roll out its newest update.It will offer parents greater control over content of their kids' views.Additionally,it will track the amount of time they spend using an iOS device.”可知,D项“苹果公司的最新更新可以帮助父母监控孩子的手机使用情况。”是本文最佳标题。故选D。]

We don't know how different our life will be in the future. We can only try to imagine it.
At first we think about human relationships.In the year 2050,we will use computers almost every day. We will be making new friends through the Internet-even our husbands or wives will be met in this way. It will be much faster and easier for us. On the other hand,our relationships with other people won't be as important as they are today-we will feel a little lonely.
Computers will also help us in many other activities in 2050. For example,they will be used by children at school to make their learning easier.In addition,there will be more other machines which will play a similar role as computers,like robots which will do the housework for us.
Spending holidays will also be completely different. Traveling to other planets or to the moon will be available for everyone. Means of transport will,of course,change,too. We will be using solarpowered cars,which will be much environmentally friendly.
We could expect that the faster economic development would lead to a more polluted environment. But it isn't true. We will pay more attention to protecting the environment. Scientists will probably find cures for many dangerous diseases,like cancer or AIDS. Therefore,our surroundings as well as health will be in better condition.
Although we cannot predict the exact changes which will be made in the world,we often think about them. We worry about our and our children's future;we have expectations,hopes as well as fears.But I think we should be rather sanguine about our future. We should be happy and believe good things will happen.
[语篇解读] 本文主要是对2050年的世界将会发生什么变化进行了简单的想象,提到了人们将去其他星球旅行,以及电脑、机器人等能为人类做的各种事情等。
5.The underlined word “sanguine” in the last paragraph most probably means .
A.disappointed B.surprised
C.curious D.optimistic
解析:D [词义猜测题。根据最后一段的最后一句“We should be happy and believe good things will happen.”可知,作者认为我们应该对未来保持乐观的心态,相信美好的事情终会发生。disappointed失望的;surprised惊讶的;curious好奇的;optimistic乐观的。故选D。]
6.According to the passage,which of the following will happen in 2050?
A.It will not be difficult for people to travel to other planets.
B.Our environment will be much polluted with a growing number of cars.
C.The way of spending holidays will be the same as that of today.
D.The relationship between people will be more important.
解析:A [细节理解题。根据第四段“Spending holidays will also be completely different.Traveling to other planets or to the moon will be available for everyone.”可知,在2050年,旅游度假也将会变得不同,每个人都能去其他星球或月球旅行。故选A。]
7.The third paragraph mainly tells .
A.that computers will do all the things for human beings
B.how people will use robots to do the housework
C.that machines like computers and robots will help people a lot
D.how people will use computers to communicate with each other
解析:C [段落大意题。根据“Computers will also help us in many other activities in 2050...there will be more other machines which will play a similar role as computers,like robots”可知,第三段讲的是,到2050年,电脑和其他机器如机器人将帮助人们做许多事情。故选C。]
8.What does the passage mainly talk about?
A.What high technology will appear in the year 2050.
B.What our life will be like in the year 2050.
C.How people will communicate in the year 2050.

Ⅱ. 阅读填句
While it may seem like everyone surfs the web these days, there is a fine line between casually checking your social media pages and having a fullblown (具有所有特征的) Internet addiction. If you fear that you may lose interest in other aspects of your life because you prefer to be on the Internet, you may be on your way to an Internet addiction. 1
Admit you are at risk of an addiction.
More and more people in the world are becoming addicted to the Internet. You are not the only one with this problem; it is becoming more and more common and more and more well known. 2
Set aside limited time for computer use.
Ensure not to turn it on too many times a week. If you have a laptop, make sure to put it somewhere that you can remember but not somewhere that you see every day. Try keeping the lid closed when you are not using it. 3 If you have a desktop PC, try not to go near it or put something over it like a sheet.
Call people instead of sending instant messages or texts.
If you are free on weekends, call friends and ask them to go outside. This will distract you from the computer. 4
Use an alarm clock or timer.
Before using your computer, decide on a time limit such as 30 minutes. Set the clock or timer and make sure that you get off the computer when the time is up. Alternatively create a shutdown timer on your desktop. 5
A.Make a small list of what you want to do within that time.
B.When the computer is not looking at you, you are less likely to use it.
C.This can be programmed to shut down your computer after the set time.
D.Luckily, there are ways to avoid living your life in front of the computer.
E.This will stop you from using the Internet so often or going on to another page.
F.If you have a problem on weekdays, phone your friends or ask for help in person.
G.Do not be embarrassed; find others with the same problem and help each other beat it.
[语篇解读] 这是一篇说明文。本文介绍了避免沉迷互联网的方法。
1.D [过渡句。根据上句“you may be on your way to an Internet addiction”可知你可能即将沉迷于互联网。结合下文提到的避免沉迷互联网的方法,可推知D项(很幸运,有办法避免你在电脑前度过你的生活)承上启下。故选D。]
2.G [细节句。上文提到对互联网上瘾的人越来越多,这种情况越来越常见。G项(不要觉得尴尬;找到有相同问题的人,互相帮助,共同解决它)提出了解决的办法。故选G。]
3.B [细节句。上句“Try keeping the lid closed when you are not using it.”讲到当你不用电脑时,试着把它关上。B项(当你不看着电脑时,你就很少使用它)介绍了这样做的好处,符合逻辑。故选B。]
4.F [细节句。上文提到如果你周末有空,邀请你的朋友到外面去,这样你的心思就会从电脑上移开,这是在介绍用其他活动来代替使用电脑,从而减少使用电脑的次数。F项(如果在工作日有问题,给你的朋友打电话或亲自去求助)分析了在工作日的做法,符合逻辑。E选项是本题的干扰项,放在设空处会和上一句“This will distract you from the computer”意思重复。故选F。]
5.C [细节句。根据上句“Alternatively create a shutdown timer on your desktop.”可知可以在你的电脑桌面上创建一个关机定时器,C项(这可以被编程设置在指定时间内关闭你的电脑)符合逻辑,空前的shutdown timer是关键词。故选C。]
Ⅲ.语法填空

[语篇解读] 本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了互联网的发明者蒂姆·伯纳斯·李对互联网未来发展的担忧。
1.inventor [Its后要用名词,此处指蒂姆·伯纳斯·李,故填inventor。]
