Self-flying cars will come in 2050, so there won’t be so many cars on the road. And self-driving cars will come, too. Now, self-driving trains are running in many rich countries. In this way, in the future, self-driving cars can make their place in some rich areas. What’s more, by 2050, 50% of jobs will also be lost because robots will be doing most of the work at that time.

In the past, people read the news in newspapers or magazines, listened to it on the radio or watched it on television. These days, social media like Instagram, TikTok or YouTube has become a new way for people to know what’s going on around the world.
A report pointed out that the number of people in the UK watching news on TikTok in 2023 is 4.9 million, up from 900,000 in 2020. It’s also reported that 29% of UK children use Instagram to look for news.

【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:——天气多糟糕啊!——是的,但我喜欢下雨后的空气。闻起来很清新。
考查冠词用法。不定冠词a/an表泛指,a用在以辅音音素开头的单数可数名词或字母前,an用在以元音音素开头的单数可数名词或字母前;定冠词the表特指。“weather”是不可数名词,前不用冠词; 空格2特指“下雨后的空气”,用定冠词the。故选B。

—No, ________.
A. interesting anything; everything B. anything interesting; nothing
C. interesting something; anything D. interesting nothing; something
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:——你刚看完报纸。你在里面发现什么有趣的东西了吗?——不,没有什么有趣的。
考查不定代词及定语后置。anything任何事,用于否定句或疑问句;everything一切;something某事;nothing没有什么;interesting有趣的。根据“Did you find ... in it?”可知,句子是一般疑问句,询问报纸里有什么有趣的事情,用anything,且形容词修饰不定代词,需放在不定代词后面,因此空一处为anything interesting;根据“No”可知,空二处是指报纸里没有什么有趣的事情,用nothing。故选B。
3. With the development of ________, people can now communicate with each other more easily.
A. transport B. technology C. culture D. history
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:随着科技的发展,人们现在可以更容易地相互交流。

________ Children will not have heavy bags on their backs. They will have computers in their hands. And at that time, blackboards will also be touch screens, so the teacher can draw any picture without using any chalk (粉笔).

In the past, people read the news in newspapers or magazines, listened to it on the radio or watched it on television. These days, social media like Instagram, TikTok or YouTube has become a new way for people to know what’s going on around the world.
A report pointed out that the number of people in the UK watching news on TikTok in 2023 is 4.9 million, up from 900,000 in 2020. It’s also reported that 29% of UK children use Instagram to look for news.
For most people, it’s a popular way to follow news on social media every day. Stories are everywhere if people open an app. Also, people can read news in a friendly way, such as a quick video on TikTok. People can get information easily by social media. It even pays attention to news going on all over the world.
However, some people think that news on social media isn’t true. The official press (报社) check the information before they put up news online, but other people might not do this. So we can’t always trust everything on it.
Studies show that people in the UK spend 108 minutes a day on social media. People will be able to have a rest from it if they get their news from a newspaper or the TV. Then, what do you think of social media?

【答案】51. C 52. A 53. D 54. D 55. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要分析了社交媒体作为新闻来源的普及、便利性及其存在的真实性挑战,并对比了传统媒体与社交媒体的差异。
【51题详解】
细节理解题。通读第一段可知,第一段通过对比过去和现在的新闻获取方式,自然引出“社交媒体成为新闻新渠道”这一主题。故选C。
【52题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“A report pointed out that the number of people in the UK watching news on TikTok in 2023 is 4.9 million, up from 900,000 in 2020.”可知,此处说的是英国在TikTok上观看新闻的人数由2020年的90万到2023年的490万,人数在不断地上升,如A图所示。故选A。
【53题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“The official press (报社) check the information before they put up news online, but other people might not do this.”可知,官方媒体在网上发布新闻之前会检查信息,但其他人可能不会这样做。可推测,下划线“this”指的是前文“The official press check the information before they put up news online”中的“核实信息”这一行为。故选D。
【54题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“People can get information easily by social media.”可知,人们可以通过社交媒体轻松获取信息。故选D。
