语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章从四个方面说明了如何做个好邻居，介绍了几个帮你迅速地融入新的社区的小技巧。
31．选G 第一段讲如果你想成为邻居中一个可以接受和有价值的部分，最简单的方法就是确保你的行为举止像一个好邻居应该有的。下文介绍了几种具体做法，故选G项“这里有一些技巧，可以帮助你迅速赢得邻居的信赖”，承上启下。
32．选F 第二段介绍和邻居关系融洽其中一个最重要的事情是保持干净整洁的户内户外环境。该空格前面的“neat, clean, and in good repair” 以及空格后面的“in great shape”都与F项中的“fresh and inviting”相对应，故选F项。
33．选E 第三段主要是建议要重视社区的整体面貌。空格前提到，散步时随身带个小垃圾袋；空格后提到，这个小小的举动会让你的邻居知道你关心这个区域。E项“如果你碰到从路过的车里扔出的废纸，把它捡起来”，与空格前后衔接，故选E项。
34．选B 第四段是建议用邻居可以接受的方式帮助他们，同时尊重邻居的隐私。由本段中的“you are there to help in any way”可知，B项“一个好邻居也是一个在小的方面乐于助人的人”，符合本段内容。
35．选C 只要我们考虑周到，尊重他人，照顾好属于自己的东西，为社区的整体面貌感到自豪，你很快就会成为一个大家都喜欢的好邻居。空格后的“respecting others, taking care of, taking pride in”都是替别人着想的表现，故C项符合语境。

How to Remember What You Read
Reading is important. But the next step is making sure that you remember what you’ve read! __31__ You may have just read the text, but the ideas, concepts and images (形象) may fly right out of your head. Here are a few tricks for remembering what you read.
●__32__ If the plot, characters, or word usage is confusing for you, you likely won’t be able to remember what you read. It’s a bit like reading a foreign language. If you don’t understand what you’re reading, how would you remember it? But there are a few things you can do ... Use a dictionary; look up the difficult words.
●Are you connected?
Does a character remind you of a friend? Does the setting make you want to visit the place? Does the book inspire you, and make you want to read more? With some books, you may feel a connection right away. __33__ How willing are you to make the connections happen? ●Read it; hear it; be it!
Read the lines. Then, speak them out loud. And, put some character into the words. When he was writing his novels, Charles Dickens would act out the parts of the characters. He’d make faces in the mirror, and change his voice for each character. __34__ ●How often do you read?
If you read frequently, you’ll likely have an easier time with remembering what you’re reading (and what you’ve read). __35__ As you make reading a regular part of your life, you’ll make more connections, stay more focused and understand the text better. You’ll learn to enjoy literature — as you remember what you read!
A．Are you confused? B．Practice makes perfect. C．What’s your motivation?
D．Memory is sometimes a tricky thing. E．Marking helps you remember what you read. F．But other books require a bit more work on your part. G．You can do the same thing when you are reading the text! 语篇解读：本文主要介绍了记住阅读过的内容的技巧。
31．选D 根据空前的“the next step is making sure that you remember what you’ve read”和空后的“but the ideas, concepts and images (形象) may fly right out of your head”可知，阅读是重要的，但是你要确保记住所阅读的内容。你可能刚读过了文本，但并没有记住其中的思想、概念和形象。由此可知D项“记忆有时候是一件很困难的事情”能衔接上下文，所以选D项。
32．选A 本空是段落主题句。由“If the plot, characters，or word usage is confusing for you, you likely won’t be able to remember what you read.”可知，本段主要介绍了由于对所读的内容有困惑，从而导致记不住所读的东西，故A选项与此处匹配。
33．选F 根据空前的“With some books, you may feel a connection right away.”可知，读有些书时，你可以很快建立联系；空后一句提到“你有多大意愿让这些联系发生”，故F项“但是 (阅读) 其他书对你的要求更多一些”与前后句衔接紧密，故选F项。
34．选G 本空位于段尾，是段落结尾句。由本段内容可知，大声读出来所阅读的材料并加以演绎也是一个技巧。本段又以狄更斯写作时演绎自己作品中的角色为例来说明我们也可以这样做，所以选G项。
35．选B 根据空前的“If you read frequently, you’ll likely have an easier time with remembering”和空后的“As you make reading a regular part of your life”可知，有规律的阅读可以让记忆变得更加轻松，即“熟能生巧”，所以选B项。
一、命题特点要知晓
1．短文特点
阅读七选五题型是在一篇长度约300词的短文中留出5个空白，要求考生从短文后所给的七个选项中选出五个能填入文章空白处的最佳选项，其中两项为多余选项，主要考查考生对文章的整体内容和结构以及上下文逻辑意义的理解和掌握。所选文章的题材大多贴近考生生活，与考生的日常生活、学习紧密相关。
2．体裁特点
阅读七选五文章体裁以说明文为主，这种文体的文章结构严谨、脉络清晰、层次分明、
逻辑性强，有利于考生在阅读的基础上进行综合理解。
3．设空特点
阅读七选五文中设五个空，依据挖空位置，可将5个题目分为段首题、段中题和段尾题；依据句子在文中的作用，可分为“主旨概括句(涉及文章整体内容)”“语段过渡句(反映文章结构)”和“细节注释句(反映上下文的逻辑关系)”三个类型。
二、题型技法要用好
主旨概括题 主旨概括题主要考查考生对文章或段落进行概括的能力，它要求考生在阅读文章时，能够提炼其中心思想，体会作者的写作意图，充分运用概括能力提取文章的主题、观点以及作者的情感态度。这类题常以考查段落标题为主，设题位置一般在段首，有时总结性的语句也会出现在段中或段尾。这类题有时也会考查整篇文章的主旨大意，即文章的主题句，一般会在首段设空。概括起来讲，命题人通常从两个方面设题：①概括文章或段落的主题句或结论性语句；②段落标题。
解答主旨概括题通常采用浏览的方式，即重点搜索本段的主题线索词并快速理清主旨大意，然后浏览选项，准确判定出与主旨大意匹配的选项。

__34__ If a neighbor is going to be out of town, offer to collect mail and newspapers.If a neighbor suffers an illness, offer to do the grocery shopping.Let them know that you are there to help in any way that is acceptable, while still respecting the privacy of your neighbor.
A．In general, keep an eye on their property while they are gone. B．A good neighbor is also one who likes to help out in small ways. C. Being a good neighbor is more or less about considerate behavior. D．Sometimes neighbors may go to the supermarket together to do shopping. E．Should you come across waste paper thrown out of a passing car, pick it up. F．People tend to take pride in keeping everything in their street fresh and inviting. G．Here are a few tips to help you win over everyone in the neighborhood quickly.
分析：选B 设空位于段首，属于主旨概括句。本段是建议用邻居可以接受的方式帮助他们，同时尊重邻居的隐私。由本段中的“you are there to help in any way”可知，B项“一个好邻居也是一个在小的方面乐于助人的人”，能概括本段内容。
语段过渡题 语段过渡题所涉及的句子是过渡句，具有承上启下的作用，该题型主要考查考生对篇章的理解能力和对上下文之间逻辑关系的分析能力。其设空位置比较灵活，可位于段尾、段首
或段中。解这类题通常可采用位置判断法。
如果设空位于段首，要前瞻后望找提示，即阅读上一段结尾部分，通常正确答案与之衔接，并结合本段内容，看所选的答案是否能将两段内容连贯起来。
如果设空位于段中，重点阅读该空的前一句和后一句，找出它们之间的逻辑关系或根据意义的连贯性得出答案；如果还没有把握，再分析该段的中心句。
如果设空位于段尾，在选项中找不出与前文之间的关联时，可考虑与下一段开头之间的衔接。仔细阅读下一段开头几句，看是否能与所选选项紧密连接起来。
[典例] (2017·6月浙江高考节选)
·Hit the streets with confidence. __33__ Say, “Excuse me, I work for XYZ News, and I was wondering if you could share your opinion about this topic.” This is a quick way to get people to warm up to you.
A．Limit your time.
B．As you approach people, be polite. C．If you don’t own a camera, you can buy one.
D．For new reporters, this can seem like a challenging task. E．To get good and useful results, ask them the same question. F．That number of interviews should give you all the answers you need. G．With a question like this, you will get more than a “Yes” or “No” reply.
分析：选B 设空处在段中，所填句子应是过渡句。由空前的“confidence”和下文中的“Excuse me”和“I was wondering”可知，到街头进行采访时要自信，同时也要有礼貌，故选B，起承上启下的作用。
细节线索题 细节线索类的试题要求考生更加注重文章中的细节，比如某个关键的单词或数字等。解答这类试题经常用到的方法有：词汇复现法、词汇同现法、代词线索法、逻辑关系线索法等。
1．词汇复现法
复现法是保证文章前后衔接而经常使用的一种写作手段，即在文章中不同的位置对同一个概念进行重复描述，从而使得同样的意思在文章中不同的地方重复出现。复现的形式主要包括原词复现、同(近)义词复现、反义词复现等。考生可利用文章的这一特点，在解题时注意选项中出现的与正文意思相同、相近或相反的词。
[典例] (2018·全国卷Ⅰ节选)
__38__. They’re the little spots of color like throw pillows, mirrors and baskets that most of us use to add visual interest to our rooms. Less tiring than painting your walls and less expensive than buying a colorful sofa, small color choices bring with them the significant benefit of being easily changeable.
A．While all of them are useful
B．Whatever you’re looking for C．If you’re experimenting with a color
D．Small color choices are the ones we’re most familiar with E．It’s not really a good idea to use too many small color pieces F．So it pays to be sure, because you want to get it right the first time
G．Color choices in this range are a step up from the small ones in two major ways
分析：选D 解此题可运用词汇复现法。该空所在段最后一句中的“small color choices”是D项“Small color choices”的原词复现。故选D。
2．词汇同现法
词汇同现是指属于同一词汇范畴或者某一领域的词汇在文章中同时出现，达到语意衔接的目的。一般来说，上下文中词汇的范畴越小，上下文的衔接关系越紧密。
[典例] (2018·全国卷Ⅱ节选)
●__40__ If you work out bright and early in the morning, you will be more likely to stick to healthy food choices throughout the day. Who would want to ruin their good workout by eating junk food? You will want to continue to focus on positive choices.
A．You will stick to your diet. B．Your quality of sleep improves. C．You prefer healthy food to fast food.
D．There is no reason you should exercise in the morning. E．You can keep your head clear for 4－10 hours after exercise. F．After you exercise, you continue to burn calories throughout the day.
G．If you are planning to do exercise regularly, or you’re doing it now, then listen up! 分析：选A 解此题可用词汇同现法。由选段的关键词stick to healthy food choices, eating junk food, positive choices等可知，这一段说的是晨练对饮食的影响，与选项A的内容属同一范畴。
3．代词线索法
英语文章中代词出现的频率极高，代词一般用来指代前面提及的名词，考生如果能巧妙地利用这样的指代关系或根据代词的单复数就可以准确而快速地解题。
[典例] (2018·全国卷Ⅰ节选)
Over the years, there have been a number of different techniques to help designers approach this important point. __37__， they can get a little complex. But good news is that there’re really only three kinds of decisions you need to make about color in your home: the small ones, the medium ones, and the large ones.
A．While all of them are useful
B．Whatever you’re looking for C．If you’re experimenting with a color
D．Small color choices are the ones we’re most familiar with E．It’s not really a good idea to use too many small color pieces F．So it pays to be sure, because you want to get it right the first time
G．Color choices in this range are a step up from the small ones in two major ways
分析：选A 解此题可运用代词线索法。空格后的they指代上文中的techniques，且与A项中的all of them相呼应，代入A项“尽管它们都很有用”，符合语境，故选A。
4．逻辑关系线索法
一篇文章往往是一个有机的整体，各部分之间存在着一定的联系。从逻辑意义上来看，句子与句子之间常常有并列、顺承、递进、转折、总分、解释、因果、过渡、例证等关系，有时甚至包含不止一种这样的关系。因此，理解阅读材料时一定要把握文章脉络，弄清其中的逻辑关系。如果文中或选项中出现了逻辑关系词，考生就可以利用其来进行推理判断；如果文中或选项中未出现逻辑关系词，这就需要考生全面理解文章大意，根据上下文语境弄清文章内在的逻辑关系，做出正确的判断。
[典例1] (2017·全国卷Ⅰ节选)
If anyone had told me three years ago that I would be spending most of my weekends camping, I would have laughed heartily.Campers, in my eyes, were people who enjoyed insect bites, ill-cooked meals, and uncomfortable sleeping bags.They had nothing in common with me.__36__ The friends who introduced me to camping thought that it meant to be a pioneer ... I was, nevertheless, talked into going on another fun-filled holiday in the wilderness ... ...We have done a lot of it since ...
__40(E)__ It must be true that sooner or later, everyone finds his or her way back to nature.I recommend that you find your way in style.
A．This time there was no tent. B．Things are going to be improved. C．The trip they took me on was a rough one.
D．I was to learn a lot about camping since then, however. E．I must say that I have certainly come to enjoy camping. F．After the trip, my family became quite interested in camping. G．There was no shade as the trees were no more than 3 feet tall.
分析：选D 此题从行文逻辑上判断属转折关系。首句“如果三年前有人告诉我我会花大部分的周末时间去野营，我将会开怀大笑”使用了虚拟语气，预示了后面的转折关系。接着讲述了作者过去对野营的看法。由下文可知作者起初和后来对野营的态度不一样。D项表示“但是，从那时起我就学习了很多关于野营的知识”，however与上文构成转折关系，因此是最佳
选项。此题的关键是however这个逻辑关系词，承上启下，为下文内容作铺垫。
[典例2] (2018·北京高考节选)
Each person, no matter who they are, has psychological imbalances. People who have personality traits that connect with competitiveness and low upset tolerance are much more likely to get angry. __53__ Also, sometimes pre-anger does not have to do with a lasting condition, but rather a temporary state before a triggering event has occurred.
A．Our attitude and viewpoint on situations can create anger within us as well. B．But some types of situations can help us to get rid of the occurrence of anger.
C．Anger is rarely looked upon as a beneficial character trait, and is usually advised to reduce it.
D．Anger is a particularly strong feeling and maybe people think that they have reasons to feel angry.
E．Having these personality traits implies the pre-anger state, where anger is in the background of your mind.
F．Understanding these reasons will control our own anger if we are willing to evaluate ourselves with a critical eye.
G．Not everyone acts the same in response to events, and that is why what triggers one person may or may not trigger another.
分析：选E 此题从行文逻辑上判断属递进关系。由空后的Also可知，选项与空后句构成递进关系。上面提到：每个人都有自己心理不平衡的地方。那些比较好强，气量比较小的人更容易生气。下一句提到：而且，有时候，pre-anger并不一定是一种持久的状态，而是一种触发事件发生前的暂时状态。该空承上启下，既要提到上一句中的那些性格特征，又要提到下一句中的pre-anger，故选E。
[典例3] (2017·北京高考节选)
One idea is that sleep helps us strengthen new memories. __72__ We know that, while awake, fresh memories are recorded by reinforcing (加强) connections between brain cells, but the memory processes that take place while we sleep have been unclear.
A．We should also try to sleep well the night before.
B．It’s as if the brain is preserving its most important memories.
C．Similarly, when people go for a few days without sleeping, they get sick. D．The processes take place to stop our brains becoming loaded with memories. E．That’s why students do better in tests if they get a chance to sleep after learning. F．“Sleep is the price we pay for learning，” says Giulio Tononi, who developed the idea. G．Tononi’s team measured the size of these connections, or synapses, in the brains of 12 mice.
分析：选E 此题从行文逻辑上判断属因果关系。空前一句的意思是，有一种观点认为，睡眠有助于增强新的记忆，选项E(那就是为什么学生如果在学习之后能有机会睡觉的话，他们就会在考试中发挥更好)是上文产生的结果。该项中的That指代的就是前面的观点，因此正确答案为E。

How to Cut Back on Playing Video Games
As you get older and shoulder more responsibilities in your life, your gaming time might need to adjust.Here’s what worked well for me. Start Tracking Your Gaming Time
One of the reasons why video games eat up so much time is that they’re so engaging.I can’t count how many times I’ve sat down to play games for “a couple of minutes” then looked up to see hours have gone by.
“Tracking your gaming time can help，” says psychologist John M．Grohol.Prepare a spreadsheet or a piece of paper, and write down when you start playing a game and when you stop.__1__ I found it helpful. Start Choosing Games Wisely
__2__ MMOs and RPGs, for example, are major time sinks.I would probably cry if I looked at my total time spent during the golden age of World of War-craft.
If you’re having a hard time stepping away from these kinds of games because there’s so much to do in them, cut them out of your gaming diet.__3__ That way, you can play in short bursts.I still indulge in these kinds of games occasionally, but I don’t play as much as I used to. Figure out What You’re Escaping
Video games are a fun way to de-stress and also one of the most advanced forms of escapism out there.To reduce my gaming thirst, I started looking at my escapism habits from another angle.__4__ Video games do offer a nice respite from the harsh truths of reality.More often than not, I would be able to identify the things that were stressing me out and making me want to escape to virtual worlds in the first place.If work was getting me down, I’d make a practical plan on how to improve it instead of grabbing a controller.__5__ The real world doesn’t always offer that, but it never will if you always run from the issues in your life.
A．Why not get away from the game you are crazy about?
B．Shift your focus to games that are more pick-up-and-play. C．Then add up your total gaming time at the end of each week. D．We find it hard to get rid ourselves of the addiction to games. E．I asked myself “What am I hiding from？” and worked from there. F．Some games require a much bigger time investment than other games.
G．We often run to video games because they make us feel powerful and in control. 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文，介绍了如何逐步减少在电子游戏上的时间的一些方法。
1．选C 根据上一句中的“write down when you start playing a game and when you stop”记录你开始游戏和结束游戏的时间可知，C项“然后汇总记录的时间”承接上文。
2．选F 根据小标题可以知道，这一段是讲如何明智地选择游戏。再根据下文内容，尤其是空后的举例可知，F项符合语境。
3．选B 根据下一句话“That way, you can play in short bursts.”可知，B是最佳选项。 4．选E 根据本段的小标题Figure out What You’re Escaping可以得出答案。
5．选G 根据上一句的controller可知，G项符合语境，G项中的control与controller为原词复现。
B
One of my earliest memories was watching my mom talk on our old phone. I was fascinated that she could talk to someone who wasn’t actually in the room with her. __1__ I was wondering how she managed to talk with someone she couldn’t see.
__2__ Later, we had mobile phones that could be carried around the room. Then came computers and smartphones. These days I can send an e-mail around the world in a second. My daughter’s smartphone has a hundred apps and a dozen social media accounts. She stores all of her information in a mysterious place known as “the cloud”， where she can take it out at any time. It seems that we are more connected in this world than ever before.
__3__ Few take the time to talk face to face. Instead of looking into the eyes of our loved ones, we stare at our screens. It seems as if the most connected generations are also the loneliest.
Don’t let technology take our time and ruin our life. Make the time to meet, to pray and to communicate with each other. Take a walk on the beach with a friend. Have a long conversation with the phones off and the hearts on. __4__ Remember that we are here to love each other, help each other and make this world a better place. __5__ But when it can’t, turn it off.
A．That was a long time ago. B．Connect offline as well as online.
C．Smartphones have both advantages and disadvantages. D．We should communicate with each other with phones off. E．When your technology can help to do these things, then use it.
F．However, what bothers me is that we rarely associate with each other nowadays. G．When she left the room, I slowly walked over to the phone and stared at it for a while. 语篇解读：本文作者描述了由于家中通信工具的变化，人们现在很少互相见面交流。作者建议人们合理利用科技，创造更美好的生活。
1．选G 根据空处前一句可知，作者对于妈妈能够和一个与她不在同一个房间的人说话感到很好奇，这吸引了作者。G项“当她离开房间的时候，我慢慢地走到电话那儿并盯着看了一会儿”与上文为因果关系，是上文产生的结果，故选G项。
2．选A 根据空后的“Later, we had mobile phones ... Then came computers and smartphones. These days I can send an e-mail”可知，作者阐述了随着时间的变化，家中的通信工具也发生了改变。A项“那是很久之前的事儿了”，符合文意，故选A项。
3．选F 根据下文可知，本段主要讲述现在我们很少面对面交流了。F项“然而，令我感到担心的是，我们现在很少互相交流了”能很好地概括段意，故选F项。
4．选B 根据上文可知，作者认为不能让科技占据我们太多的时间，摧毁我们的生活，我们应该花时间互相见面交流。B项“既要在网上联系也要在网络之外联系”，符合文意，故选B项。
5．选E 空处前一句提到我们来到这个世界是为了相互关爱，相互帮助，使世界变得更美好；后一句提到当科技不能(帮助你)做到这些时，就关掉它。所以空处应表示当科技能够帮助你做到这些时就使用它，故E项符合文意。

__2__. When you’re dehydrated, cells won’t function well enough and the flow is not so smooth affecting your physical and mental performance and making you feel sluggish (迟钝的), according to a review of hydration research conducted by scientists at the University of North Carolina.
You might lose weight
A new study from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign involving more than 18,000
adults found that when people increased their daily water intake by one to three 8-ounce cups (on top of the four they already drank on average), they ate less.__3__.
Your memory may improve
Your brain is hugely dependent on fluid — all those brain cells need liquid to fire properly.According to a review published in the journal Nutrients, studies have consistently found that memory and attention improve in children after they take a drink of water.__4__.

3．选D 由小标题可知，本段主要讲的是多喝水有助于减肥。所以选D，讲喝水是如何减肥的。
4．选G 本段用孩子和大人作对比。前一句讲的是水对孩子记忆力和注意力的影响，所以后一句讲水对成年人是否有影响，故选G。

Walking regularly is the easiest and least expensive form of exercise.Except for a good pair of walking shoes, no special equipment is needed.It is not necessary to join a gym.__1__. You can walk every day with no “rest days” in between.There is nothing to learn; people already know how to walk.There are, however, a few important things to keep in mind when walking to lose weight.
·Ways to lose weight by walking
The first way to begin to lose weight by walking is to start walking.The initial goal should be 10,000 steps per day.Using a simple pedometer (计步器) attached to the waistband or on a belt will help you to count your daily steps.Consistency — even 10 minutes 3 times a day at first — will produce the immediate results.__2__.
·__3__
It is very important to check with your medical professional before beginning any exercise program, especially if you are over age 65, have been required sitting or little activity for more than a year, or have been diagnosed with heart disease, pregnancy, high blood pressure, or any other medical conditions.
·How to walk to lose weight
A good walking technique will help you achieve the physical or mental energy you need to walk consistently for the amount of time you have set for your goal.Making sure that you are using your large muscles correctly will also help to build your muscles.__4__.
Walking regularly can aid in muscle growth and increase the amount of calories you burn throughout the day.Eating a healthy low-fat diet will raise your metabolism (新陈代谢)．__5__. If paired the calorie burn with the correct diet, it can lead to a better form of weight loss.
A．Limiting your “bad” fat intake B．Beginning a regular walking program
C．For instance, take the stairs rather than taking the elevator D．It can be done anywhere and anytime, along or with friends
E．These two methods will help lead to a safe 1 to 2 pound weight loss per week F．Strong muscles burn more calories throughout the day, even when you are not walking G．But slowly increasing the time and the distance will encourage your weight-loss efforts 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文，介绍了如何通过走路的方式进行有效减肥。
1．选D 根据上一句“no special equipment is needed.It is not necessary to join a gym.”可知，走路是一种没有地点，没有时间的相对自由的运动，所以选D。
2．选G 这里是一个循序渐进的过程，一开始是每天三次，每次10分钟左右，故G项“慢慢地，增加走路的时间和距离”承接上文，符合语境。
3．选B 本段主要讲老年人要特别注意，一开始进行运动项目，要以医生的专业建议为依据。B项中“walking program”与下文中“exercise program”属近义重现。
4．选F 根据上文中“Making sure that you are using your large muscles correctly will also help to build your muscles.”可知，选F项，走路能加强肌肉，而大肌肉的燃脂活动对减肥很有意义。
5．选E 空前介绍了减肥的两大法宝，一方面是多运动，比如走路；另一方面是注意饮食。E项中的“These two methods”指代上文中的两个方面。如果两方面都能做到，那么减肥肯定有效果。

(2018·金华十校模拟)Most smartphones allow you to run location-sharing software that uses the phone’s GPS capability to let friends and family know your exact location.There are lots of great uses for this technology.__1__ So make sure you’re permitted to use an app or service, and pay attention to how you are using it.Here’re some important points you may find helpful.
Choose what’s best for you.Some locationsharing services are games that let you give a shoutout when you’ve turned up at a particular spot.__2__ Still others continue to share your location until you change the setting.Be sure you know exactly how your service shares your location.
Know who your friends are.__3__ This means people can search to see if you’re online and add you as a friend.It’s important to remember that sharing your location with people you’ve never met in real life is risky, so you should carefully manage friend requests and share your location only with people you know and trust.
__4__ Some services automatically stop sending your location after a period of time, but others will send it forever — until you stop it.Review your contact list periodically and delete anyone to whom you no longer feel comfortable revealing your location.
Update parents.Location-based services are a great way for teens to let parents know where they are without having to call or text.__5__ If you’re heading home late at night, you can also use a service like Glympse to share your location as you drive, so they’ll know if you have car trouble or get stuck in traffic.
A．Check back often. B．Keep sending your location.

2．选F 根据下一句“Still others continue to share your location until you change the setting.”可知，这里在列举一些不太好的定位设备，故选F，F项中的Others与上文Some和下文Still others相呼应。
3．选G 根据下面一句“This means people can search to see if you’re online and add you as a friend.”可知，有些定位装置像社交软件一样，可以加好友。这个功能可以使你的好友搜索到你的实时定位。
4．选A 本段主要讲了一些定位装置常自动停止而一些总是不停地发送你的位置，因此你需要常检查，A是最佳答案。
5．选E 本段主要讲这个定位装置可以使父母放心，E项中的“ease worries”与本段内容对应。

(2018·宁波市5月模拟)If something that you’re doing doesn’t challenge you, then it doesn’t change you.We all need some normal stress in our lives, after all.__1__ So challenge the following limits：
·Figure out what you’re scared of and do it continuously.
If you’re a salesman, and you’re scared of talking to people personally or over the phone, now, instead of being scared and thinking you’ll fail, spend at least five minutes a day to pick up the phone and make a call.__2__ But don’t stop on the first try! Eventually, you can look at fear in the eyes and say, “Go on, I’m not scared！”
·__3__ Make sure this hobby is not linked to your career; you have to relax and relieve your stress while performing this.Some examples might be cooking, sewing, painting and so on.Apart from helping you challenge yourself, taking a class for your hobby may also give you extra income.
·Set aside at least nine minutes a day for physical exercise.
__4__ A simple 9-minute run around your neighborhood can do wonders for yourself.Exercise can not only help you maintain your regular weight, but also make you feel better about yourself.
·Travel and allow yourself to be interested in new people.
Don’t just limit yourself to your fellow travelers — try to connect with the service staff.You never know what kind of people they’re going to be.Get out of your house or go online right now to book your class.__5__

How to Overcome Social Anxiety
If you suffer from social anxiety, you will fear certain situations.In whatever situation your fear turns up, you will probably experience sweating, feeling your heart race or other symptoms of anxiety.__1__ No matter what your symptoms are, there are things you can do to deal with social anxiety.
·Relaxing muscles.
__2__ It is impossible to feel both relaxed and anxious.For deep muscle relaxation, you will relax the major muscle groups of your body, beginning with your feet and working your way towards your head and face.
·Breathing slowly.
Controlling your breathing when you are anxious is another good way to deal with your emotions.When you are anxious, your breath becomes faster and shallower.__3__ If you learn to breathe more slowly and regularly through your nose, you will calm down.
·Controlling your thoughts.
Faulty thinking is another feature of social anxiety.__4__ So it is important to judge whether those thoughts are true.People with social anxiety always overestimate how badly others think of them.Keep in mind that your thoughts are only guesses about what others will think or what you will do.
·__5__
Most people with social anxiety want to hide or run away from whatever they are afraid of.But by facing your anxiety instead, you will find that is usually something you can put up with.When using this method, focus on what is going on around you instead of what is going through your mind, and that should help you get out of those anxious thoughts.
Have you found any of the described methods useful? If you have other ways to cope with anxiety, don’t hesitate to share with us.
A．Facing your anxiety. B．Practicing makes perfect. C．There is no need to worry, though.
D．You will become even more easygoing as time goes by. E．As a result, you feel more worried, bringing on more anxiety. F．Physical relaxation is one of the best ways to remove anxious feelings.

Expert tips on how to spend less time on your phone
This year has seen a variety of studies showing that too much screen time is bad for our health.Here are some expert tips to help you spend less time on smartphones.
Reduce the time spent checking your phone
“Set times and guidelines allowing yourself to be on the phone only at certain times of the day，” says Baylor College of Medicine’s Dr.Jin Han.
If you do not set some exercise guidelines for yourself, then it can lead to a sedentary (久坐的) life.__1__ If you are on your phone excessively, it is not healthy.
Another way to use your phone less is to delete all the apps you don’t need. Break your reliance
“__2__ And we know our phones have gone from just regular cell phones to smartphones that allow you to multitask all with one device，” notes Dr.Han.“You use your phone now to receive emails, to chat and to access social media platforms.” To help break this reliance, Dr.Han says, “ask yourself what you need your phone for at that moment.If you don’t need to be on your phone, then don’t use it.”
Another way to do this is to replace smartphone features with real objects.__3__ Break up with Facebook
If asked where we spend most of our time online, many of us would say Facebook.__4__ For those who want to try kicking the Facebook habit but need some extra support, the team behind the Dutch project, 99 Days of Freedom are here to help.
Limit nighttime use
Being on your phone late into the night can make it harder for you to fall asleep and wake up the next day, with many studies also suggesting that it reduces the quality of your sleep.
Restricting your phone use at night can help you accomplish a healthy sleep hygiene (卫生) behavior, says Dr.Han.Many experts advise no phones for two hours before bed.__5__
A．Quitting the site would mean less screen time. B．There has been an evolution in technology. C．Smart device use is the same problem.
D．If this is difficult for you, aim for at least 30 minutes.
E．Checking smartphone less has been one’s New Year’s resolutions.
F．You can write your appointments on a desk calendar instead of in your phone. G．Turning off push notifications (通知) helps reduce the time checking your smartphone. 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文，介绍了如何减少使用手机的时间。
1．选C 空处上文说没有设定锻炼计划，就会过着长期伏案生活，空后说如果你在手机
上花太多时间，也不健康，故C项能够衔接上下文。C项中的“the same problem”指上文提到的未设定锻炼计划造成的长期伏案生活。
2．选B 根据下文内容可知，我们的手机从单纯的手机变成了多任务一体化智能设备。故B项是对下文的总结。
3．选F 由空前的内容可知，减少使用手机的另一种方法是用真实的物体代替手机上的功能，F项中用纸质的实体备忘录代替手机的备忘录正是上文的具体应用，故选F。
4．选A 空前说很多人已经对上瘾，空后说对于想放弃玩习惯的人，荷兰项目可以提供帮助。故A项“停止玩会意味着较少的屏幕时间”能衔接上下文。
5．选D 专家们建议在睡前2小时内不碰手机，那样你就能拥有良好的睡眠。但是，如果你觉得一开始这样做太困难，可以先把两小时减为30分钟，一步一步来，最终取得成功。故D项符合语境。

Tips for Conquering Your College Freshmen Fears
It’s totally normal to be nervous about starting college.Rest assured that most of your fears will probably fade away after your first few weeks, and even if they don’t, most schools have plenty of resources for dealing with common first-year fears like these.
·__1__ This is, of course, a possibility, but there’s also a good chance you’ll get along really well with your roommates.To give yourself the best chance of having a healthy relationship with your roommates, take the time to correspond with them before school starts.__2__ You could even go so far as to write the rules down in a roommate contract.
·I’ll have problems meeting new people.One important thing to remember is that almost everyone there is new, and virtually no one knows anybody else.__3__ You can always consider joining social clubs or a student organization, where you’re likely to find others who share your interests.
·I won’t be able to cut it academically.__4__ But that doesn’t mean you will not do well.Prepare yourself for a challenging workload, and if you feel you’re underperforming your expectations, ask for help.Your academic adviser can direct you toward relevant resources.
·__5__ Don’t know how to cook or do laundry. Trying is a great way to learn.And with the wealth of how-to guides online, you should be able to find plenty of guidance for whatever you’re trying to do.

Common public speaking problems
The use of “I feel”， “I think” and “maybe”
In the question-and-answer session of the speaking competition, many contestants began their answers with uncertain expressions like “I feel”， “I guess”， “I hear”， “maybe” and “perhaps”．
These words show that the person is only speaking from his or her point of view.__1__. Work on keeping your answers brief and to the point.Also work on delivering them with calmness and confidence.Instead of the emptysounding “I guess”， using facts, together with a clear conclusion based on those facts, is far more likely to be popular with an audience.
__2__
Don’t stick to the same tone.It can be boring.Try to mix it up.For example, when they spoke about their dreams, some sounded romantic.Others used humor.Very few used several different styles together.__3__， rather than just sticking with the same one.
Irresponsible answers
__4__.You’re responsible for your words.Even though you want to answer quickly, you don’t want to sound foolish.So you should think twice before you talk.Don’t be like the student who, when asked about his opinion on book piracy (盗版), started by saying he supported it.
Talking around the topic rather than directly answering it
You should focus on one point and give a clear solution.__5__.Is it asking you to discuss a certain topic or to present your own point of view?
Use one or two arguments together and give a strong conclusion.Remember that judges are not judging you on whether they agree, but on your ability to say what you think clearly.
A．Try mixing more than one style B．Improving your communication skill C．Using only one speaking style D．It’s important to involve your audience
E．Public speaking is different from personal conversations F．The key is to work out what question is being asked
G．To the judges and audience, this lacks the support of facts and seems not to be reliable 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文，介绍了在演讲中常常出现的一些问题。
1．选G 根据上一句可知，用“我觉得，我认为，我听说，大概等”这样的词汇，而不是
事实和数据来支撑，就没有说服力。
2．选C 根据下文的几个小标题可知，本文主要说明演讲者常常会出现的问题。根据“Don’t stick to the same tone.”可知答案应选C，C项中“only one speaking style”与“the same one”相对应。
3．选A 由空处上文可知，不要只用一种平淡的声调，要多种方式并用，故A项衔接上下文，符合语境。
4．选E 公共演讲不是私人的谈话，你什么都可以说。这是一种公开场合的活动，你要对自己所说的话负责，所以一定要三思而后行，一定要慎重。
5．选F 由上文及空后的问句可知，F项符合语境。F项中的“The key”指上文的“focus on one point and give a clear solution”，而“question is being asked”又与下文问句相呼应。

1．选B 根据下文内容，“我”早上起来第一件事情就是看手机，“我”晚上入睡前最后一件事情也是看手机可知，“我”发现“我”自己对手机上瘾了。
2．选D “我”一有空就看手机，这让“我”觉得手机占据了“我”应该放松和休息的时间，从而影响了“我”的健康。
3．选C 由下文可知，手机分散了“我”的注意力。“我”在和别人聊天的时候，会时不时地去看“我”的手机，这不礼貌，也让“我”无法专心。
4．选G 空前说“我”完全依赖“我”的手机，空后说手机能快速、容易地解决问题，故G项，“我”的手机是“我”的手表、“我”的闹钟、“我”的电子邮件、“我”的地图等，衔接上下文，符合语境。
5．选E 空前提到手机会影响睡眠，空后提到，但是，“我”不能控制自己，故空处与下文形成转折，应选E。

Zheng Xuan works in a “Confucius classroom” at the Metro Deaf School in Saint Paul, Minnesota, the United States.Named after the ancient Chinese philosopher, Confucius schools and classrooms are generally run as non-profit public institutions to help foreigners understand China through language and culture classes at overseas universities.
Zheng is the first hearing
impaired (听障的) teacher to have been sent abroad as part of the
program, which was established in 2004.She has considered as her personal motto the words of Irving King Jordan, the first deaf president of Gallaudet University in Washington D．C., “Deaf people can do anything hearing people can do, except hear.”
Zheng teaches students Chinese Sign Language, basic Mandarin (普通话) and Chinese culture, but communicates with her colleagues using American Sign Language and English.
Born in Wuhan, Hubei Province, Zheng lost most of her hearing after a medical accident at age 2.She learned to communicate by lip
reading and entered mainstream education.In 2009, she
received a PhD in literature from Shanghai’s Fudan University.She refused job offers in Shanghai and Shenzhen, choosing instead to teach at Chongqing Normal University’s special education department — the only one in West China for students who are hearingand a mentor (导师) for postgraduate students.
She has adapted quickly to the different teaching environment in Minnesota and accepted the opportunity to learn about special education in the US.“Doctor Zheng is one of the most intelligent and thoughtful professors I have met.Her hard work earns my respect，” Kathy Johnson, director of the SCSU Confucius Institute, said.

Studies have shown a direct link between goals and improved performance in both sports and business.Earl Nightingale put it this way, “People with goals succeed because they know where they are going.It’s as simple as that.”
Dr.Maxwell Maltz, author of the classic Psycho-Cybernetics, said that human beings have a builtin goal seeking “success mechanism (机制)” that is part of the subconscious (潜意识的) mind.This success mechanism is constantly searching for ways to help us reach our targets and find answers to our problems.According to Maltz, we feel better when our success mechanism keeps going after clear targets.All we have to do to use this mechanism is give it a target.
One important reason goal setters achieve such outstanding results is that they have learned how to focus and concentrate their time, energy and resources (资源) on a single goal, even though it is just for a few hours at a time.One major time management challenge we are facing today is that there are more things available for us to do than anyone could possibly attempt, let alone accomplish, in an entire lifetime.If we are not careful, it is very easy to waste our time on unimportant things.
Most significant accomplishments are accompanied with difficulties, struggles and failures.Thomas Edison failed over one thousand times before he finally discovered a way to make the light bulb work.It is very rare for something important to be accomplished successfully on the very first try.If you want to achieve anything significant, it is likely that you will struggle and fail many times before you finally reach your target.One of the main reasons why people give up so easily in the face of failure is that they lose sight of their “why”．Goals can help you remember your “big why” when you need to pick yourself up and keep going in the face of difficult situations. 语篇解读：本文是一篇议论文。要想成功，我们要树立目标，并全身心地投入到目标上，心中有目标就不会轻言放弃。

9．What can we conclude from the last paragraph? A．Goals can prevent us giving up easily. B．Goals mean achieving more than others. C．Goals get rid of doubts about what we do. D．Goals lead to more difficulties or failures.
解析：选A 推理判断题。根据最后一段的“One of the main reasons why people give up so easily in the face of failure is that they lose sight of their ‘why’．”可知，树立目标可以防止我们轻易放弃。
10．What is the best title for the text? A．How to set goals? B．How can we succeed? C．Why should we set goals? D．Why should we keep going?
解析：选C 标题归纳题。通读全文可知，文章论述了设立目标的重要性以及益处，告诉我们为什么要树立目标，故C项为最佳标题。

Breaking bad reading habits
Are you eager to become a faster reader? Reading faster isn’t about finishing books without comprehension or enjoyment. __11__ To do so, you need to change some bad reading habits. 1．Avoid sounding out the words in your head. Many people sound out the words as they read — either by moving their lips or hearing the words in their head. __12__ This is because it only allows you to read the words as fast as you can say them, which isn’t very fast at all.
2．__13__ Another common practice which slows down reading speed hugely is the practice of reading each individual word separately. Instead, you should try to read in chunks (语块)．
3．Overcome inefficient eye movement. When children learn how to read, they are taught to look at each word individually before moving onto the next. __14__ Therefore, this practice makes reading a lot less efficient.
4．Avoid distractions. Many people are slow readers simply because they often read in an inappropriate environment. If you want to read quickly and absorb the material in front of you, you need to avoid all kinds of distractions. Don’t try to read in a loud environment. __15__ Read in a quiet, peaceful environment where reading is your only focus.
A．Avoid reading word by word.
B．Don’t read the same sentence two or three times. C．It won’t improve your understanding of the material.
D．Otherwise, you’ll find yourself getting distracted and rereading paragraphs. E．However, your eyes are able to take in much more than a single word at a time.
F．It’s about learning to pick up the speed and still take in the information in an enjoyable way. G．Although it is an effective way of teaching kids how to read, it is not beneficial to reading faster.
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了通过改变不好的阅读习惯提高阅读速度的方法。
11．选F F项中的“It’s about ...”与上文的“Reading faster isn’t about finishing books without comprehension or enjoyment.”相呼应。
12．选G G项中的it指代上文的“sound out the words as they read”。
13．选A 由下文的“Another ... reading each individual word separately ... in chunks (语块)．”可知，本段主要是讲要避免逐字阅读。A项是对本段内容的概括。
14．选E E项与上文的“look at each word individually before moving onto the next”是转折关系。
15．选D D项与上文的“Don’t try to read in a loud environment.”相呼应，是上文产生的后果。

Facebook says it is working on technology to allow us to control computers directly with our brains. It is developing “silent speech” software to allow people to type at a rate of 100 words per minute.
The project, in its early stages, will require new technology to detect brainwaves without needing invasive surgery. “We are not talking about decoding (译) your random thoughts，” assured Facebook’s Regina Dugan. “We’re talking about decoding those words.”
Ms Dugan is the company’s head of Building 8, the firm’s hardware research lab. The company said it intends to build both the hardware and software to achieve its goal, and has enlisted a team of more than 60 scientists and academics to work on the project.
On his Facebook page, Mark Zuckerberg added: “Our brains produce enough data to stream four HD movies every second. The problem is that the best way we have to get information out into the world — speech — can only transmit about the same amount of data as a 1980s modem. We’re working on ‘silent speech’ software that will let you type straight from your brain about five times faster than you can type on your phone today. Eventually, we want to turn it into a wearable
technology that can be manufactured at scale.”
“Technology is going to have to get a lot more advanced before we can share a pure thought or feeling, but this is a first step，” Ms Dugan said. Other ideas detailed at the company’s developers conference in San Jose included work to allow people to “hear” through skin. The system, comparable to Braille, uses pressure points on the skin to relay information. “One day, not so far away, it may be possible for me to think in Mandarin, and you to feel it instantly in Spanish，” Ms Dugan said.
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。Facebook公司发表声明称，他们目前正在研发人脑信息读取技术，将实现用人脑控制电脑。
1．What’s a special feature of “silent speech” software? A．It can change computers. B．It can control human brains.
C．It can record a person’s random thoughts. D．It can enable humans to type from their brain.
解析：选D 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“We’re working on ‘silent speech’ software that will let you type straight from your brain about five times faster than you can type on your phone today.”可知，正在研发的软件叫作“无声话语”，它可以让人直接通过大脑打字。
2．What can be learned from the last paragraph? A．Mandarin becomes the main language of computers. B．Computers can be monitored by people’s skin now. C．Facebook has a long way to go to achieve its goal. D．It is impossible to control computers with brains.
解析：选C 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Technology is going to have to get a lot more advanced before we can share a pure thought or feeling, but this is a first step”可知，在能够分享纯粹的想法和感觉之前，技术还需要很大的进步和发展，这只是第一步。由此可推知，在实现目标前还有很长的路要走。
3．What would be the best title for the text? A．Computers bring profits for Facebook B．Silent speech changes people’s lifestyle C．A new study about human brains starts D．Facebook shares brain-control ambitions
解析：选D 标题归纳题。本文主要告诉我们Facebook公司发表声明称，他们正在研发人脑信息读取技术，目的在于实现用人脑控制电脑，故D项作标题最佳。

(2018·浙江名校联考)Chances are that you’ve had to apologize plenty of times in your life.And there’s a good chance that you’ve also expressed the phrase, “I never meant to hurt you.”
“Stop doing that，” says author Caroline Myss.
In a talk, Myss — a spiritual researcher — took on the topic of forgiveness and healing, and explained definitely why “I never meant to hurt you” is never a sufficient apology, no matter who it comes from.
“Picture that person coming up to you and saying, ‘Wow, I’m sorry I did this, but, you know, I never meant to hurt you. And, hey, can we just call it a day？’” Myss says.
Though it can make the two bury_the_hatchet and keep friendship, that type of apology won’t sit well with the person on the receiving end. “That whole little thing — ‘I never meant to hurt you’ — that’s the thing you can’t forgive，” she says.“It goes right to your soul, that toxic (有毒的) and sick feeling.”
Instead, Myss says it’s important to approach the conversation differently.Basically, it’s about offering more than an apology.It’s about sharing a soultosoul confession (忏悔)．“Let’s redo the scene，” Myss says. “The person comes up to you and says ...’I need to tell you something.I consciously knew what I was doing.I know I went against you.This is not an apology.I am confessing my soul to you, and I’m asking now for your forgiveness.’”
Even saying those words on stages makes Myss visibly emotional, and she points out that this is how deeply apologies within the soul are supposed to resonate (引起共鸣)．
“That’s what heals，” she says.
语篇解读：本文是一篇议论文。每个人在道歉的时候都会说“我从没想过要伤害你”。专家认为这不是有效的诚恳的道歉方式，真正的道歉应该用别的方式，把重点放在你做的错事上，
发自心灵地进行忏悔。
7．What does Myss think of the expression “I never meant to hurt you”？ A．It must put the friendship to an end. B．It is a great way to express an apology.
C．It doesn’t have any effect on restoring the relation. D．It can’t express an apology thoroughly and sincerely.
解析：选D 推理判断题。根据第三段以及第五段第一句“Though it can make ...the person on the receiving end.”可知，卡罗琳·米斯明确地表示这句话绝不是一种彻底的最终能被人接受的道歉方式。由此可推测，她认为这句话不能彻底、诚恳地表达歉意。故选D项。
8．What does the underlined phrase “bury the hatchet” mean? A．End the friendship. C．Bury the fighting tool.
B．Make up.
D．Accept the apology.
解析：选B 词义猜测题。分析句子结构可知，and连接两个并列成分，根据and后的“keep friendship”以及句首的Though可以推断，此处应指双方和解。由此可猜测，bury the hatchet的意思是“和解”，与make up意思相近。故选B项。
9．How should we apologize according to Myss? A．We should confess our faults and ask for forgiveness. B．We should say sincerely “I never meant to hurt you”． C．We can go into a deep conversation to argue with our friend.
D．We are supposed to make up with the other by giving some gifts to him.
解析：选A 推理判断题。根据倒数第三段中的“The person comes up to you and says ...for your forgiveness.’”可知，米斯认为道歉应该是坦白自己的错误，向对方做出忏悔，请求对方的原谅。故选A项。
10．What is the author’s purpose of writing the passage? A．To encourage people to apologize first. B．To tell people how to apologize sincerely. C．To introduce the topic of forgiveness and healing.
D．To explain why people can’t say “I never meant to hurt you”．
解析：选B 写作意图题。通读全文可知，本文通过引用专家的话告诉读者，真正的道歉不是一句“我从没打算伤害你”，而是坦白自己的错误，向对方真诚地忏悔，然后请求对方的原谅。由此可推测，作者的目的是告诉读者如何真诚地道歉。故选B项。

Good reasons to take your kids
to the library today
Recognizing the role the library played in my becoming a book lover, I brought my kids to the library as soon as they could walk. Here are four good reasons to take your children to the library today：
Regular library visits lead to more reading. __11__ Research shows that when kids are read to, existing links among brain cells are strengthened and new cell links are formed. And let’s not forget how reading aloud connects us — reader and listener — in a very intimate (亲密的) way. When we read aloud to kids, we send them this message: __12__
When you visit the library, you can expose your children to more books and magazines than you can afford to buy. __13__ But if you’re like most of us, you’re on a budget and you have to cap their spending. But at the library, you can pull out as many as you can carry, return your books as soon as they’re read, and take home a whole new pile.
Your local children’s librarian can recommend books that you may not know of or think to suggest. One of my young readers was a car-obsessed little boy. __14__ But it was our children’s librarian who introduced him to Ruth Krauss’s classic picture book Big and Little. I would never have guessed that he’d come to love this poetic book so much.
Owning a library card teaches kids responsibility. As card-carrying library patrons, young kids learn about treating with care things that belong to others. __15__ He feels responsible. He feels more like a member of his community.
So get your child a library card. A．Library time is active, not passive. B．And reading, as it turns out, is brain food! C．You are important, and this time is for you.
D．When a kid checks out books in his own name, he feels trustworthy. E．Our home library was full of books about vehicles that I knew he’d like. F．Most libraries offer regular children’s programs that make stories come to life.
G．Sure, you can take your kids to the children’s section of a nearby bookstore — and you should!
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了家长应该带孩子去图书馆的几个原因。
11．选B B项与上文的“more reading”相呼应，且下文关于阅读可以促进大脑发育的研究结果是对B项中的“brain food”的具体解释。
12．选C C项是对上文的“this message”的具体阐释，且与上文的“how reading aloud connects us — reader and listener — in a very intimate (亲密的) way”相呼应。
13．选G G项与下文的“But if you’re like most of us, you’re on a budget and you have to cap their spending.”是转折关系，符合语境。
14．选E E项中的“books about vehicles that I knew he’d like”与上文的“a car-obsessed
little boy”相呼应。
15．选D D项与下文的“He feels responsible. He feels more like a member of his community.”是并列关系，说明让孩子拥有属于自己的图书证会让孩子感觉被信任，有利于培养他的责任感。

A
Katherine Schreiber and Leslie Sim are experts on exercise addiction who believe that tech advances encourage obsessive (强迫性的) goal monitoring. Schreiber and Sim dislike wearable tech.
Wearable tech is a term that describes clothing and accessories (配件) with electronic computer-based functions. Schreiber and Sim were particularly critical of watches and trackers that present wearers with instantly updated fitness records. Many of these devices either give you goals or ask you to set your own. Reach the goal, and the device emits a beep (发出嘟嘟声). I’ve watched friends and family members respond to that beep, and it’s hard not to think of Pavlov’s dog — with Pavlov’s dog, associating the sound of a bell with the smell of food caused the dog to drool (流口水) when the bell rang.
Schreiber and Sim both recognized that smartwatches and fitness trackers have probably encouraged people who aren’t very active to exercise more consistently. But as experts in addiction, they were convinced the devices were also quite dangerous. Schreiber explained that “focusing on numbers divorces you from being in tune with your body. Exercising becomes mindless, which is ‘the goal’ of addiction.”
Numbers pave the road to obsession. “When it comes to exercise, everything can be measured，” Sim says. “How many calories you burn; how many laps you run; how fast you go. And if you went, say, two miles yesterday, you don’t want to go less than that today. It becomes fairly compulsive.” Many of Sim’s patients experience this constant need to check in. A ten-year-old boy who visited her clinic in Minneapolis was known for being a fast runner, and he was very proud of his speed. His biggest concern was that he might slow down, so he constantly checked his speed by moving all the time. “He would drive his parents crazy. When they visited Minneapolis for their evaluation, he kept the entire hotel awake at night. They were getting complaints because he was running around his room.”
Most people become obsessive when they’re focusing on numbers. Even if you’re tired, and feel you need to rest, you’ll continue walking or running till you reach your arbitrary numerical goal.
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。专家指出，使用健身追踪器容易导致运动成瘾症。
1．What is Schreiber and Sim’s attitude towards wearable fitness trackers? A．Disapproving. C．Doubtful.
B．Favorable. D．Curious.
解析：选A 观点态度题。由第一段末的“Schreiber and Sim dislike wearable tech.”及第二段中的“Schreiber and Sim were particularly critical of watches and trackers that present wearers with instantly updated fitness records.”可知，这两位专家反对使用可穿戴式健身追踪器。
2．Which kind of people act like Pavlov’s dog? A．Those who have pet dogs. B．Those who do exercise regularly. C．Those who pursue their goals in life. D．Those who use wearable fitness devices.
解析：选D 推理判断题。由第二段中的最后两句话可知，那些使用可穿戴式健身追踪器的人在听到达到目标后设备发出的嘟嘟声时的反应让人想起苏联生理学家和实验心理学家巴甫洛夫的狗。这只狗经训练后一听到铃声就以为美食到了，因此会流口水。据此推断，那些使用可穿戴式健身追踪器的人的行为就像巴甫洛夫的狗。
3．How did the ten-year-old boy drive his parents mad? A．He was addicted to running. B．He couldn’t run fast enough. C．He kept complaining about them. D．He paid little attention to his studies.
解析：选A 细节理解题。由倒数第二段中的“His biggest concern ... moving all the time.”及“he kept the entire hotel awake ... running around his room”可知，这个男孩跑步成瘾导致他的父母抓狂。

For the past three summers, Jenny Howard has worked on Seal Island, Maine. Howard, who holds a bachelor’s degree in arts and biology with an environmental science concentration from Kenyon College in Ohio, is the supervisor (主管) for Project Puffin, a seabird restoration project. She and a small crew of volunteers monitor and protect the seabirds during the summer breeding (繁殖) season.
The puffin with a colorful beak (喙) is often referred to as a “sea parrot”. They were hunted
more than 150 years ago for food and feathers and disappeared from Seal Island, once home to the largest puffin habitat in Maine. Dr. Steve Kress, founder of Project Puffin, reintroduced the puffin to the island 40 years ago.
From mid-May to mid-August, crews live in tents that are on top of 8-foot-wide wooden platforms, overlooking a rocky beach. “You get really close to people really fast because you’re spending all your time with them，” Howard said.
The crew brings only what they can carry on their backs when they travel to the island: clothes, books, and food. There’s no refrigeration on the island, and with the exception of two solarpowered lights, there’s no electricity either. Food and fresh water are delivered every 10 days by a local.
The only real structure on the island is the Seal Island cabin. It offers more protection than the tents and is where most of the research and data entry are done. It’s also a safe place for the crew to cook and stay warm.
For Howard, the best part of a day spent on the island is getting to play with the birds. “You see a baby chick, and you can’t help but smile，” Howard said. “It’s a completely different style of life from the average person, but I just love the work, and I love waking up and getting excited about what I’m going to do.”
语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。Jenny Howard是“海鹦项目”的主管，为了观察和保护海鹦的繁殖，她和志愿者们一起住在海豹岛上，过着简单而快乐的生活。
4．What does Howard do on Seal Island? A．She protects puffins from hunting. B．She helps Dr. Kress with his research. C．She helps puffins with their productivity. D．She studies for an environmental science degree.
解析：选C 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“She and a small crew of volunteers monitor and protect the seabirds during the summer breeding (繁殖) season.”可知，Howard住在海豹岛上是为了观察和保护海鹦繁殖，以使其数量不断增加。
5．What does the underlined word “people” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A．The hunters. C．The puffins.
B．The locals. D．The volunteers.
解析：选D 词义猜测题。结合第一段中的“She and a small crew of volunteers monitor and protect the seabirds”和第三段中的“crews live in tents that are on top of 8-foot-wide wooden platforms”可知，Howard和志愿者们一起住在狭小的帐篷里，很快就互相了解了。
6．How are the working conditions on Seal Island? A．Poor. C．Flexible.
B．Safe. D．Satisfying.
解析：选A 推理判断题。根据第四段内容和第五段中的“The only real structure on the island is the Seal Island cabin.”可以推知，岛上的生活和工作条件都很艰苦。
7．What would be the best title for the text? A．Do what you like
B．Rare seabirds on Seal Island C．Living simply to help save puffins D．Reintroducing puffins to Seal Island
解析：选C 标题归纳题。本文主要讲述了Jenny Howard和她的同伴们住在海豹岛上保护海鹦的故事，故C项作标题最能概括文章主旨。
C
The other day, my sister and I were sitting in a restaurant, trying to have a conversation, but her children, four-year-old Willow and seven-year-old Luca, would not stop fighting. The arguments — over a fork, or who had more water in a glass — never stopped.
Then my sister reached into her handbag, produced two shiny iPads (苹果平板电脑), and handed one to each child. Suddenly, the two were quiet. They sat playing games and watching videos, and we continued with our conversation.
After our meal, as my sister stuffed the iPads back into her bag, she said，“I don’t want to give them the iPads at the dinner table, but if they keep them occupied for an hour so we can eat in peace, I often just hand them over. I’m afraid it’s bad for them. I do worry that it makes them think it’s OK to use electronics at the dinner table in the future.”
Dr. Gary Small, director of the Longevity Center at the University of California, Los Angeles says that the brain is highly sensitive to stimuli (刺激物), like iPads and smartphone screens, and if people spend too much time on one technology, and less time interacting (互动) with people like parents at the dinner table, that could prevent the development of certain communication skills.
“Conversations with each other are the way children learn to have conversations with themselves, and learn how to be alone，” said Sherry Turkle, a professor of science, technology and society at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. She fears that children who do not learn real interactions, which often have imperfections, will come to know a world where perfect, shiny screens give them a false sense of intimacy (亲密) without risk. However, they need to be able to gather themselves and know who they are. So someday they can form a relationship with another person without a panic of being alone. “If you don’t teach your children to be alone, they’ll only know how to be lonely，” she said.
语篇解读：本文是一篇议论文。用iPad让孩子们安静下来似乎很有效，但是这样做对吗？
8．What did Willow and Luca fight about? A．iPads. C．Delicious food.
B．Little things. D．Interesting things.
解析：选B 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“The arguments — over a fork, or who had more water in a glass — never stopped.”可以看出，Willow和Luca为一些小事争吵。
9．According to Dr. Small, what should parents do? A．Provide their children with various technologies. B．Teach their children communication skills. C．Talk to their children at the dinner table. D．Limit their children’s screen time.
解析：选D 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“if people spend too much time on one technology ... prevent the development of certain communication skills”可知，长时间使用电子设备有碍于孩子们一些沟通技能的发展，因此家长应该孩子使用这些设备的时间。
10．What is Sherry Turkle worried? A．Children are afraid of taking risks. B．Children try to escape from the real world. C．Children can’t live without electronic devices. D．Children can’t deal with companionless situations.
解析：选D 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“She fears that children who ... a false sense of intimacy (亲密) without risk.”可知，Sherry Turkle担心孩子们习惯了电子设备的陪伴，认为真正的人际交往也是如此，随时随地有人陪伴，因此他们会受不了孤单。

语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。当我们在申请工作时，我们的职位申请表如何才能不被招聘者丢到一边？文章建议我们要避免一些不必要的错误。
11．选E 根据空前的内容可知，招聘者要浏览很多的申请表，所以他们要努力淘汰一些他们认为不能胜任该职位的申请人。
12．选C 由本段的内容可知，作者告诫我们一定要注意招聘广告上的说明，如果不按照要求做的话，那招聘者会认为你不注重细节。因此C项作为小标题，告诉我们一个求职者会犯的错误：忽略申请表上的指示。
13．选G 根据空后的内容“Therefore, the hiring manager will throw out applications that do not include all the required attachments.”可知，如果你忽略了这些东西，招聘者就不能用这些信息来把你与其他人相比较，这样就可能会因为相关附件的缺失而导致我们的申请表被扔到一边。
14．选D 根据前文可知，对于一个能力大于实际职位需要的人来说，他们有可能会在工作之后不久就会感到无聊而离职，因此这也不是一个成功的招聘。
15．选B 根据空后的“Be as brief as possible”可知，此处建议我们要言简意赅，否则会让招聘者感到无聊，不想再继续看下去。
