课时作业(四) Comprehensive Test for Unit 1
Ⅰ.阅读理解
[2025广东佛山南海一中第一学期考试] Thirteenyearold Kaylee has a lot of friends—532, actually, if you count up her online friends.And she spends a lot of time with them.
But is it possible that Kaylee's online friendships could be making her lonely? That's what some experts believe.Connecting online is a great way to stay in touch, they say.However, some experts worry that many kids are so busy connecting online that they might be missing out on true friendships.
Could this be true? During your parents' childhoods, connecting with friends usually meant spending time with them in the flesh.Kids played Scrabble around a table, not Words With Friends on their phones.When friends missed each other, they picked up the telephone.Friends might even write letters to each other.
Today, most communication takes place online.A typical teen sends 2,000 texts a month and spends more than 44 hours per week in front of a screen.Much of this time is spent on social media platforms (平台).
In fact, in many ways, online communication can make friendships stronger, “There's definitely a positive influence.Kids can stay in constant contact, which means they can share more of their feelings with each other,” says Katie Davis, coauthor of The App Generation.
Other experts, however, warn that too much online communication can get in the way of forming deep friendships.“If we are constantly checking in with our virtual words, we will have little time for our realworld friendships.” says Larry Rosen, a professor at California State University.Rosen also worries that today's kids might mistake the “friends” on the social media for true friends in life.However, in tough times, you don't need someone to like your picture or share your blogs.You need someone who will keep your secrets and hold your hand.You would like to talk face to face.
1.What is the purpose of the first paragraph?
A.To summarize the text.
B.To tell about true friends.
C.To bring up a discussion.
D.To encourage online friendship.
2.What does the underlined part “in the flesh” mean in Paragraph 3?
A.In any case. B.In person.
C.In full measure. D.In advance.
3.What is Katie's attitude towards online communication?
A.Worried. B.Unconcerned.
C.Confused. D.Positive.
4.What view does Rosen hold?
A.It's wise to turn to friends online.
B.It's easier to develop friendships in reality.
C.Teenagers need focus on realworld friendships.
D.Social media help people stay closely connected.

参考答案及详细解析
课时作业(四):Comprehensive Test for Unit 1
Ⅰ.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇议论文。现在的青少年把更多的时间用于网上交友,这样的现象让专家很担忧。专家认为青少年如果过度关注虚拟世界,他们将没有时间在现实世界建立真正的友谊。
1.答案与解析:C 根据第一段“Thirteenyearold Kaylee has a lot of friends—532, actually, if you count up her online friends.And she spends a lot of time with them.”的描述,同时结合全文主旨大意可推知,这里的主要目的在于提出讨论话题,从而引出下文对于这个话题的进一步阐释和说明。故选C。
2.答案与解析:B 根据画线短语前的“During your parent's childhoods (在你们父母的童年时期)”和画线短语后的“Kids played Scrabble around a table, not Words With Friends on their phones.(孩子们围着桌子玩拼字游戏,而不是和朋友们用手机玩文字游戏。)”可知,在你父母的童年时期,与朋友相处通常意味着亲自花时间与他们在一起。孩子们围着桌子玩拼字游戏,而不是玩手机,由此推知, in the flesh意为“亲自”,故选B。
3.答案与解析:D 根据第五段中的描述可知,事实上,网上交流在很多方面可以让友谊更加牢固。而且是有积极影响的。孩子们经常联系意味着他们可以更多地分享彼此的感受。据此推知, Katie对网络交流持乐观态度。故选D。
4.答案与解析:C 根据第六段的描述可知,如果我们一直关注虚拟世界,我们将几乎没有时间留给现实世界的友谊。Rosen担心孩子们可能会把社交媒体上的朋友错当成生活中真正的朋友。由此可知,Rosen认为青少年需要关注现实世界的友谊。故选C。
Ⅱ.

Ⅲ.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了澳大利亚作家安德鲁·马修斯在他的著作《快乐少年》中告诉青少年如何拥有快乐的生活。
1.答案与解析:C 如果是这样的话,你会发现澳大利亚作家安德鲁·马修斯写的《快乐少年》很有用。根据下文“In his book, Matthews __2__ us how to have a happy life and answers the __3__ of teenagers.”可知,这里的意思是你会发现澳大利亚作家安德鲁·马修斯的《做一个快乐的少年》很有用。
2.答案与解析:B 在他的书中,马修斯告诉我们如何拥有快乐的生活,并回答青少年的问题。根据空后的“us how to have a happy life”可知,在他的书中,马修斯告诉我们如何拥有快乐的生活。
3.答案与解析:C 根据空前的“answers”可知,马修斯还回答了青少年的问题。
4.答案与解析:D 马修斯在书里写到很多话题,比如父母和朋友,这本书说我们应该停止生气并且要学会原谅。根据空前的“writes about”和空后的“such as parents and friends”可知此处指书中写到的话题。
5.答案与解析:B 根据空前的“The book tells us of useful skills”及空后的“how to put what you have learned into pictures of your mind to make your memory better”可知,这本书告诉我们一些有用的技能,比如/像是如何把你所学到的知识运用到你的脑海中,使你的记忆力更好。
6.答案与解析:C 许多青少年认为快乐来自于好的考试成绩或者别人的表扬。分析句子结构可知,此处为宾语从句,从句成分完整,所以用that仅起连接作用,无实义。
7.答案与解析:C 根据空后的“be happy even when there are no such ‘good’ things.”可知,但如果没有这些“好”事,你仍然可以快乐,这里应使用still搭配even表转折。
8.答案与解析:B 根据空后的“If you __9__ from problems, you will have success in the future.”可知,如果你从问题中吸取教训,以后你会取得成功,因此成功来自良好的态度。
9.答案与解析:A 根据空后的“from problems, you will have success in the future.”可知,这里指从问题中吸取教训才能取得成功,需用learn搭配from。
10.答案与解析:D 根据空后的“being too tall or too short.”可知,太高或太矮应该属于问题。
11.答案与解析:B 但马修斯告诉我们,快乐来自于以积极的方式思考问题。根据上下文可知,在他的书中,马修斯告诉我们如何拥有快乐的生活,因此此处指“快乐”。
12.答案与解析:A 根据空前的“Matthews tells us that __11__ comes from thinking about things in a positive”可知,马修斯告诉我们,快乐来自于以积极的方式思考问题,后文给出的思考方式佐证了这一点。
13.答案与解析:C 如果你个子高,人们更容易注意到你,你在看电影时可以看得更清楚;如果你个子矮,你的衣服和鞋子在你的卧室里占的空间就更少! 根据空后的“if you are short”可知此处是个子高和个子矮的对比,此处指“个子高”。
14.答案与解析:A take up开始从事,占用; stand up站起来; turn up调大,出现; burn up烧光,消耗。根据空前的“if you are short, your clothes and shoes”可知,如果你个子矮,你的衣服和鞋子在你的卧室里占的空间就更少, take up搭配room表示“占用(空间)”。
15.答案与解析:B 根据空后的“you choose to be happy!”可知,你可以选择快乐,这是马修斯在书中告诉我们的最重要的一个道理。
Ⅳ.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。通过自己的职业经历以说明选择自己喜欢的职业的重要性。
1.答案与解析:experiences 考查名词的单复数。分析句子结构可知,本空作主语,根据谓语动词were可知,主语用复数形式。
2.答案与解析:as 考查介词。分析句子结构可知,本句是表达“更别提把商人作为一个长期的职业了”。
3.答案与解析:graduated 考查动词的时态。分析句子结构可知, graduate作谓语,与主语I为主谓关系,且陈述过去的事情,应用一般过去时。
4.答案与解析:doing 考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,本句缺乏原因状语, do与其逻辑主语I为主谓关系,应用现在分词形式。
5.答案与解析:to quit 考查非谓语动词。make up one's mind to do sth.意为“下定决心做某事”,为固定用法,所以应用不定式形式。
6.答案与解析:what 考查名词性从句。分析句子结构可知,6.________ I love作do的宾语,该从句缺乏love的宾语,应用连接代词,表示“……的东西”。
7.答案与解析:where 考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知,空处引导限制性定语从句,修饰先行词place,且从句缺乏状语。
8.答案与解析:truly 考查词性转换。修饰动词want用副词。
9.答案与解析:happiness 考查词性转换。根据前面的动词bring和句意可知,此处表示“能够给周围的人带来快乐”之意,故用名词happiness,且不可数。
10.答案与解析:successful 考查词性转换。分析句子结构可知,本句缺表语, be动词后接形容词作表语。

参考范文:
Dear Xiaodong,
I'm sorry you are having trouble in making friends.However, the situation is easy to change if you take my advice.
First, why not go and talk to people standing on their own? They may be lonely, too.If you do this, I am sure you will soon have a new friend.Second, you can begin the conversation by asking about their likes and dislikes.That way you will soon find people with the same interests.Finally, you should try to join in a discussion.By doing this can you let people know how friendly you are.So there should be no problem.It should certainly help you make some new friends.
I hope you will find these ideas useful.
Yours,
Li Hua
