[素能提升练] Ⅰ.阅读理解(每小题2.5分，共10分) (2025·湖北云学名校联盟高二年级3月联考) Mindlessly dumping photos on the cloud and forgetting about them entirely is something many of us are guilty of—but tech experts have warned the common habit may end up costing us a fortune. Research from pCloud suggests the average person stores a huge 500GB of data in their personal cloud storage，which equals 137，237 pictures，and a sharp leap from a decade ago，where the average user had 630 photos and 24 videos stored on their phone.“Think about it—how many of the photos on your phone do you actually look at？” asks Brenda Beltrán of Holafly. Back twenty-five years ago，all our storage was somewhat tangible.CDs，DVDs，printed images etc.took up actual room in our homes，and when it felt like we’d collected too much—we’d simply get rid.But with services like the cloud，that instinct has seemingly disappeared.“But it’s not free，either for your wallet or the planet，” warns Brenda.“Data centres take up a lot of energy，and while companies like Google are working on making them greener，the volume of stuff being stored is incredible.” The very idea of paying to access your own photos and videos would once sound ludicrous，but the commercialization of digital storage has very quickly become normalised.Most data storage services now charge a monthly fee，which means you’re forever in debt if you want to keep your photos and videos. “This trend will continue，and it’s going to force people to rethink what’s worth keeping，” predicts Taimur Ijlal，a tech expert.James Bore，a security professional，agrees and says that most storage companies have been funded for years by “heavy investments”.“Now that people have much of their digital lives stored with these platforms，they expect to get their investment back，” he added.“The carbon footprint resulting from data storage is mainly due to the energy consumption required in powering the data centres that store massive volumes of information，” said Jacob Kalvo，CEO of Live Proxics.“These centres rely heavily on electricity.” As electricity becomes more and more expensive，the costs of running data centres will also increase—once again putting the financial impact onto the consumer. 1.What can we know from the figures in Paragraph 2？ A.People take more photos than before. B.Most of the photos stored are useless. C.Phones now have powerful functions. D.More space is needed for data storage. 2.What’s Brenda’s attitude towards the cloud storage services？ A.Favourable. B.Tolerant. C.Critical. D.Ambiguous. 3.What does the underlined word “ludicrous” in Paragraph 4 probably mean？ A.Ridiculous. B.Idealistic. C.Expensive. D.Unavoidable. 4.What can we infer from the last paragraph？ A.Consumers have to rethink storage methods. B.Carbon footprint causes low electricity fees. C.Most storage companies make no profit now. D.Data centers can process massive information. 　　语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了技术专家们警告，我们将数据存储到云存储中的习以为常的行为很有可能会需要花费我们一大笔钱。 1.答案：D 解析：推理判断题。根据第二段“Research from pCloud suggests the average person...24 videos stored on their phone.”可知，我们的手机目前存储大量的数据，即需要更多空间来存储数据。故选D。 2.答案：C 解析：观点态度题。根据第三段“But with services like the cloud，that instinct has seemingly disappeared.‘But it’s not free，either for your wallet or the planet，’ warns Brenda.”可知，布伦达认为云服务需要花钱，并对地球有害，因此他对云服务的态度是批判的。故选C。 3.答案：A 解析：词义猜测题。根据第四段画线处下文“but the commercialization of digital storage has very quickly become normalised.”可知，当下数字存储商业化是常见的现象，作者在这里通过转折的含义与上文进行对比，因此推断画线词意为“不常见的，不合理的，荒唐的”。故选A。 4.答案：C 解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段“‘Now that people have much of their digital lives stored with these platforms，they expect to get their investment back，’ he added.”可知，数据存储公司希望收回投资，即目前还没有盈利。故选C。 Ⅱ.完形填空(每小题1分，共15分) (2025·山东省济宁市高二上学期1月期末) Williams and Smith spend the weeks leading up to Christmas crossing the country.They visit all 50 states，making house calls to kids who are 　1　.The pair arrive with plenty of toys，and in costume，both of which 　2　 the young recipients.Though Williams has been spreading joy this way for years，the drive to do it 　3　 a joyless event.
