●Ⅴ 阅读理解(每小题2.5分,满分10分)
The rise of the Internet has been one of the most influential developments in human history, comparable in effect to the invention of the printing press and the telegraph (电报). Over two billion people worldwide now have access to more information than ever before, and can communicate with each other whenever they want, often using Web-connected mobile phones they carry everywhere. But the Internet’s huge influence has only just begun.
“Mass use of the Internet is driving one of the most exciting social, cultural, and political changes in history, and unlike earlier periods of change, this time the effects are fully global,” Schmidt and Cohen write in their new book The New Digital Age.
Perhaps the most far-reaching changes will come when the five billion people worldwide who currently have no access to the Internet get online. The authors do an excellent job of examining the possible results of the Internet invention for individuals, governments, and institutions like the news media. But if the book has one major shortcoming, it’s that authors don’t spend enough time applying a critical eye to the role of Internet businesses in these sweeping changes.
At the centre of the book is the idea that “technology is impartial, but people aren’t”. By using this idea as a starting point, the authors aim to move beyond the now familiar optimist vs pessimist dichotomy (二分法) that has characterized many recent debates about whether the rise of the Internet will finally be good or bad for society. In an interview with TIME earlier this week, Cohen said although he and his co-author are optimistic about many aspects of the Internet, they are also realistic about the risks and dangers that lie ahead when the next five billion people come online, particularly with respect to personal privacy and state monitoring.
( )1.Why does the author compare the Internet with the printing press and the telegraph?
A.To present the development of technology.
B.To show the creativity of human beings.
C.To prove the efforts made by human beings.
D.To stress the great influence of the Internet.
( )2.What are the effects of the mass use of the Internet according to Paragraph 2?
A.They are immeasurable.
B.They are uncontrollable.
C.They are worldwide.
D.They are disastrous.
( )3.What is the major weakness of the book?
A.It doesn’t recognize the influence of the Internet businesses.
B.It fails to look at the role of Internet businesses fully and objectively.
C.It lacks all-round monitoring on the sweeping changes.
D.It doesn’t cover the risks and dangers that lie ahead.
( )4.What do we know about the authors of The New Digital Age?
A.They leave many questions unanswered.
B.They are optimistic about the future of the Internet.
C.They are not aware of the risks and dangers of the Internet.
D.They don’t take sides in examining the effects of the Internet.
●Ⅵ 阅读七选五(每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
Expressive writing is a cornerstone of wellness and writing connections. If you are not familiar with it, you may be asking:“Just what is expressive writing, and how is that related to my wellness?”
Expressive writing is personal and emotional writing without regard to form or other writing conventions. 1. It is one common tool used by psychologists in therapy and hundreds of studies found that it could be healing in many circumstances such as for cancer patients or those with disabilities.
Expressive writing therapy works because it allows you to make meaning out of a painful experience, experts say. Recognizing that something is bothering you is an important first step. 2. And creating a narrative gives you a sense of control.
What if you don’t consider yourself“a writer”? Don’t worry about spelling or grammar, and don’t share your writing with anyone. But do dig deep into your thoughts and feelings. 3.
Yanatha Desouvre, who teaches entrepreneurship at a college in Miami, took up expressive writing about 15 years ago, after the break-up of what he said was an unhealthy relationship. He wrote to understand why it made him feel vulnerable (脆弱的) and sometimes physically ill. He thinks of his expressive writing as a captain’s log. 4. “My expressive writing gave me the courage to face my fears,” Desouvre says. “And I believe it has helped me discover the hope I need to heal.”
5. Expressive writing isn’t a magical cure-all. It shouldn’t be used as a replacement for other treatments. And people coping with severe depression may not find it useful to do on their own, without therapy.
A.But there are a few warnings.
B.Your goal is to be honest with yourself.
C.It is a record of what happened and what he’s learned.
D.It simply expresses what is on your mind and in your heart.
E.Spending minutes writing down your feelings improves your health.
F.The topic can be anything as long as the writing expresses personal thoughts.
G.Translating that experience into language forces you to organize your thoughts.

第二节 读后续写(满分25分)
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
“Surprise!” was the first thing I heard when I opened the door. My family and friends were all smiling at me. There were colourful balloons all over the house, a big poster saying “HAPPY BIRTHDAY”, and of course a cake with 12 candles. It was a wonderful feeling. I knew that I had finally turned twelve and I might possibly get the thing I wanted most.
I saw my mum and dad coming towards me with a small box which seemed to be a birthday present. When I opened the box, I couldn’t believe my eyes. I had really gotten a mobile phone! Throwing myself into their arms, I let out a cry of joy, “Thank you! I love you guys!”
“You’re welcome. We knew this was going to make you happy but we got you this not only because you turn twelve, but also because you are doing well in school. We expect you to keep getting good grades.”
“Of course I will,” I said confidently.
As soon as I got to school the next morning, I was showing off my phone and asking everyone for their number. It was cool how I got so many contacts on the first day.
It felt like I didn’t even exist in that class anymore. I wouldn’t pay much attention to the teachers because I was too busy with my phone. However, I didn’t get caught using it.
I was pretty sure that the teacher did notice that I stopped paying attention to her because a week later we took a test and I failed. What was worse, my mum had to sign the test.
It was hard to show my mum the test. She was used to seeing A’s and B’s on my tests. Finally, I showed it to her, and she couldn’t believe it. She was angry but most of all, she was disappointed.
注意:续写词数应为150个左右。
Paragraph 1:
Realizing the reason for my failure, my parents started to dislike the fact that I had a phone.
Paragraph 2:
Then I started to wonder if I was wrong.

Ⅴ.【文章大意】 本文是一篇说明文,主要讲述了网络的崛起使得人们能获得更多信息,让人们的日常沟通更加顺畅。文章引用《新数字时代》这本书中的内容来说明网络对人们有好处也有风险。
1.D 推理判断题。根据第一段“The rise of the Internet has been one of the most influential developments in human history, comparable in effect to the invention of the printing press and the telegraph (电报).”可知,作者将互联网与印刷术和电报进行比较是为了强调互联网的巨大影响。故选D。
2.C 细节理解题。根据第二段“‘Mass use of the Internet is driving one of the most exciting social, cultural, and political changes in history, and unlike earlier periods of change, this time the effects are fully global,’ Schmidt and Cohen write in their new book The New Digital Age.”可知,互联网的影响是全球的。故选C。
3.B 细节理解题。根据第三段“But if the book has one major shortcoming, it’s that authors don’t spend enough time applying a critical eye to the role of Internet businesses in these sweeping changes.”可知,这本书的不足之处是其作者没有花足够的时间以一种批判的眼光来看待互联网企业所扮演的角色。故选B。
4.D 推理判断题。根据最后一段“By using this idea as a starting point, the authors aim to move beyond the now familiar optimist vs pessimist dichotomy (二分法) that has characterized many recent debates about whether the rise of the Internet will finally be good or bad for society. In an interview with TIME earlier this week, Cohen said although he and his co-author are optimistic about many aspects of the Internet, they are also realistic about the risks and dangers that lie ahead when the next five billion people come online, particularly with respect to personal privacy and state monitoring.”(以这个观点为出发点,作者的目的是超越现在熟悉的乐观主义者和悲观主义者的二分法,这种二分法是最近许多关于互联网的兴起最终对社会是好是坏的争论的特征。在本周早些时候接受《时代》杂志采访时,科恩说,尽管他和他的合著者对互联网的许多方面都持乐观态度,但他们也对未来50亿人上网时面临的风险和危险持现实态度,特别是在个人隐私和国家监控方面。)可知,《新数字时代》的作者们对待网络持一种中立态度。故选D。
Ⅵ.【文章大意】 这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了表达性写作能够在一定程度上对治疗心理疾病有帮助。
1.D 根据上文“Expressive writing is personal and emotional writing without regard to form or other writing conventions.”(表达性写作是一种不考虑形式或其他写作惯例的个人及情感的写作。)可知,此处说的是表达性写作的内容,与D项(它简单地表达了你的想法和内心。)表达的含义一致,故选D。
2.G 根据上文“Recognizing that something is bothering you is an important first step.”(认识到有什么事情困扰着你是重要的第一步。)以及下文“And creating a narrative gives you a sense of control.”(叙述一件事会给你一种控制感。)可知,此处说的是要认识到自己不愉快的经历,并将它转化为语言,与G项 (将这种经历转化为语言会迫使你整理自己的想法。)表达的含义一致,故选G。
3.B 根据上文“Don’t worry about spelling or grammar, and don’t share your writing with anyone. But do dig deep into your thoughts and feelings.”(不要担心拼写或语法问题,也不要与任何人分享你的写作。但一定要深入挖掘你的想法和感受。)可知,此处说的是要忠实于自己的真正感受,与B项(你的目标是要对自己诚实。)表达的含义一致,故选B。
4.C 根据上文“He wrote to understand why it made him feel vulnerable (脆弱的) and sometimes physically ill. He thinks of his expressive writing as a captain’s log.”(他写作是为了理解为什么这会让他感到脆弱,甚至有时身体不适。他认为自己的表达性写作就像船长的日志。)可知,此处是他对发生的事情和自己的感受的记录,与C项 (这是对所发生的事情和他所学到的东西的记录。)表达的含义一致,故选C。
5.A 根据下文“Expressive writing isn’t a magical cure-all. It shouldn’t be used as a replacement for other treatments.”(表达性写作并不是万能的灵丹妙药。它不应该被用作其他治疗的替代品。)可知,此处说的是表达性写作的局限性,与A项 (但也有一些警告。)表达的含义一致,故选A。
Ⅶ.【文章大意】 本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了气候活动家Edgar McGregor连续数百天在伊顿峡谷捡扔在路上的垃圾。
1.dropped 考查非谓语动词。分析句子可知,空处应作后置定语修饰名词litter,且与被修饰词构成逻辑上的被动关系,故应用过去分词。故填dropped。
2.posting 考查非谓语动词。分析句子可知,post与其逻辑主语McGregor是主动关系,故应用现在分词。故填posting。
3.follower 考查名词。分析句子可知,空处应填名词follower,在句中作宾语,前面有one,应用单数形式,故填follower。
4.that 考查同位语从句。分析句子可知,空处应填that引导同位语从句,that在从句中不作成分也无实际意义,但是不能省略。故填that。
5.for 考查介词。be thankful for意为“因为……而感激”。故填for。
6.publicly 考查副词。分析句子可知,空处应用副词作状语,修饰动词announced。故填publicly。
7.to maintain 考查非谓语动词。分析句子可知,空处应用不定式在句中作目的状语。故填to maintain。
8.Whether 考查让步状语从句。whether…or…意为“无论……还是……,不管……还是……”,引导让步状语从句,在句中位于句首,首字母应大写。故填Whether。
9.are turned 考查动词时态、语态和主谓一致。根据finds可知,句子应用一般现在时。turn与句子主语all of the recyclables构成被动关系,all of the recyclables为复数,故用一般现在时的被动语态,be动词用are。故填are turned。
10.organizations 考查名词。分析句子可知,空处在句中作主语,前面有many修饰,应用复数形式。故填organizations。
Ⅷ.第一节
One possible version:
Dear Leah,
I’m writing to share with you a debate I had in class last Tuesday. At present, Internet slang has become popular among the teenagers.
There are different opinions on Internet slang. Some students think Internet slang is vivid, fashionable and full of humour and intelligence. Besides, it makes chatting on the Internet quicker. However, some other students think Internet slang lacks depth of thought and is too simple. Also, it is hard to understand and not accepted by most people. The words sometimes might make people confused, even resulting in misunderstanding.
Every coin has two sides. In my opinion, living in the Information Age, if we don’t know the Internet slang, we seem to fall behind the times. It will be OK as long as these terms are used correctly in proper situations.
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节
【思路点拨】 本文讲述了作者生日时,父母因他已经12岁,并且在学校表现非常出色而给了他一部手机作为生日礼物,作者非常开心。他在学校炫耀手机,记下同学们的电话号码并且在课上也只关注手机,背着老师玩手机,无心听课学习。考试了,成绩一塌糊涂,他拿着成绩单让妈妈签字,妈妈既生气又失望。
【详解】
1. 段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“意识到我失败的原因,我的父母开始不想要我有手机。”可知,第一段可描写作者的父母发现作者有手机之后的一些变化和感受。
②由第二段首句内容“后来我开始怀疑是不是我错了。”可知,第二段可描写作者反思自己的行为后,开始放下手机,做出改变。
2. 续写线索:父母抱怨—作者的反思—放下手机—关注交流—改变态度
One possible version:
Realizing the reason for my failure, my parents started to dislike the fact that I had a phone. They said they had noticed that I never paid attention to them (宾语从句). It was like I had my own little world. They thought we didn’t communicate as much with my phone. So they regretted having given me a phone, which made me ignore the family and study (定语从句).
Then I started to wonder if I was wrong. A week later I tried going a whole day without a phone and it didn’t go that badly. I had so much fun because I was actually spending time with my family and keeping them company (原因状语从句). From that day, I had a different opinion towards phones. Phones really take you away from the rest of the world. I’m not saying that phones are bad and that you should not use them, but you do have to spare some time to spend with your family and not get stuck with (固定搭配:陷入) your phone all day.
