W: Ha-ha, I understand. I was chased by dogs a couple of times. Sometimes they can be very scary.

In the city, an accident at the North Street means that it is closed to all cars, and drivers must use New Street or Lake Street. Because of this, some journeys by bus are taking longer. The No.16 bus to the city center is really late. There are also problems for railway passengers because of thick snow on the tracks. All trains to Oxford are late and there will be no trains to London until lunchtime. Passengers should phone for the latest information about trains. This afternoon, it is going to be very windy. There is going to be much snow this evening. So wear some warm clothes if you have to go out! For more weather information, look at our website.

From McDonald’s to Sonic, fast food had a bad effect on my waistline and my budget (预算). It was so easy to use my card for a small purchase (购买). For me, I got a lot of satisfaction from fast food.
One day I realized that I was spending a surprising $40 a week on fast food. This was a lot of iced coffee and hamburgers! I decided to give myself a tight budget to reduce my consumption. Every Monday I placed an envelope with $20 in my purse. That was my fast food budget for the whole week. If there was anything left over at the end of the week, it would be mine to save or spend. If I spent all of the money during the week, there would be no more fast food that week.
The budget made me more mindful of my purchases. Instead of purchasing a large drink from Sonic, I would purchase a small one. It was still satisfying but not nearly as expensive. Instead of eating a whole meal, I would pick the part that I actually wanted. I never really felt unhappy because it was a wise choice to spend or save with each purchase.
The envelope budget kept me honest. I had a clear idea how much money was spent each week on fast food purchases. I started to bring my lunches more often to save more money for the week. It was a fun challenge to see how much I could save every week.
Changing the way I spent on fast food not only helped my budget, but watched my weight. Now I am more likely to bring my lunch than to buy it. I am not upset, but allowed to make positive choices to improve my life.

A. She had no time to cook for herself.
B. She was fond of fast food very much.

B. To save money to buy fast food.

26. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?

B It is hard to enjoy a healthy lifestyle.

D. The envelope budget is good for health.

I decided to give myself a tight budget to reduce my consumption. (有一天，我意识到我每周在快餐上的花费惊人地高达40美元。这是很多冰咖啡和汉堡包！我决定给自己一个紧缩的预算来减少消费)”可知，作者每周在快餐上的花费很高，所以作者设定了信封预算，以控制快餐支出。故选D项。

C
A short while ago, I lost access to my We Chat account.I am not sure why it wouldn’t let me log in; perhaps it was my ancient, out-of-date phone. But I wasn’t upset because it offered me an opportunity to take a break from social media-something more and more people are doing.
In the United States, Twitter and Facebook has seen a 44 percent decline among its younger users. Stars such as Taylor Swift and Ed Sheeren have taken a break from social media because they were tired of so many Internet trolls leaving negative comments. Ordinary people (like me) are turning away from it because of the feeling that they were spending more time online and enjoying less.
It is not unusual for people to spend two or three hours a day posting or reading posts, to the point where it becomes an addiction.And it is an addiction. There is a chemical in your brain known as dopamine (多巴胺) which is sometimes called the “reward molecule”and its release gives you a feeling of pleasure. For instance, when you post a photo on We Chat and get a hundred likes, you feel happy. That’s dopamine at work.
In my case, being off We Chat is actually an added bonus. No doubt I missed my dopamine. And I got e-mails from friends wondering if I was fine or if I was just being anti-social. But I soon began to feel quite peaceful and started to worry less about what other people were doing and concentrate more on my personal life. And I’m getting better sleep at night.
I’m not advocating that all of you quit social media, but spending less time on these platforms does bring you advantages.
28. How did the author feel after he lost access to We Chat account?
A. Calm. B. Worried.
C. Disappointed. D. Surprised.
29. Why does the author list famous stars in paragraph 2?
A. To illustrate the importance of social media.
B. To compare them with ordinary people.
C. To give examples of quitting online platforms.
D. To show the popularity of social media.
30. What does the underlined word probably mean?
A. Desire. B. Benefit.
C. Mission. D. Joy.
31. What might the author continue talking about?
A. How to form good online habits.
B. How to use social media properly.
C. How to be smart online learners.
D. How to cut down the time spent online.
【答案】28. A 29. C 30. B 31. D
【解析】
【导语】本文为一篇议论文。如今越来越多的人暂时远离社交媒体，因为厌倦了网络喷子留下的负面评论或者觉得上网时间过长，影响了实际的个人生活。作者暂时离开微信后感到平静，开始更关注自己的生活，睡眠质量也有所提高，
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“A short while ago，I lost access to my We Chat account.I am not sure why it wouldn’t let me log in;perhaps it was my ancient，out-of-date phone.But I wasn’t upset because it offered me an opportunity to take a break from social media-something more and more people are doing. (不久前，我的微信账号无法访问了。我不知道为什么它不让我登录；也许是我那部旧的、过时的手机出了问题。但我并不沮丧，因为这给了我一个从社交媒体中休息一下的机会——越来越多的人都在这么做。)”，以及倒数第二段“But I soon began to feel quite peaceful and started to worry less about what other people were doing and concentrate more on my personal life. (但我很快就开始感到非常平静，开始不那么担心别人在做什么，而是更多地关注自己的个人生活。)”可知，在作者无法访问自己的微信账号后，作者没有沮丧，内心平静，故选A项。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“In the United States，Twitter and Facebook has seen a 44 percent decline among its younger users. Stars such as Taylor Swift and Ed Sheeren have taken a break from social media because they were tired of so many Internet trolls leaving negative comments. (在美国，Twitter和Facebook的年轻用户数量下降了44%。泰勒·斯威夫特和艾德·希林等明星已经暂时远离社交媒体，因为他们厌倦了太多网络喷子留下的负面评论。)”可知，第二段陈述了美国很多用户退出Twitter和Facebook，作者列出了远离社交媒体的著名的明星。目的是举一些退出网络平台的例子。故选C项。
【30题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词所在句“I’m not advocating that all of you quit social media, but spending less time on these platforms does bring you advantages.(并不是主张大家都放弃社交媒体，但减少在这些平台上的时间确实会给你带来advantages。)”可知，作者认为完全放弃社交媒体时没有必要的，说明社交媒体多多少少给人带来了负面影响，所以减少一点上网时间会给人带来好处，advantages与Benefit意思相近。故选B项。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“I’m not advocating that all of you quit social media, but spending less time on these platforms does bring you advantages. (并不是主张大家都放弃社交媒体，但减少在这些平台上的时间确实会给你带来好处。)”可知，接下来作者可能会谈一下如何减少上网时间，故选D项。
D
In the digital age, we are becoming accustomed to technological innovations, and the fact that they can have a deep impact on our lives.
The number of the smartphone adult users has reached 85 percent in the UK population. Meanwhile streaming and 5G tech are changing the way we watch movies, TV shows and sports events. But Artificial Intelligence(AI) is probably the biggest game-changer of them all. The biggest impacts have nothing to do with robots or even digital assistants like Google Home. Here are two real-world applications of AI that are already changing our world for the better
One is better medical diagnose. If you had some illness, would you want to be diagnosed by a doctor or a machine? You’d probably say the former, but in reality, the question is not that simple. Today, human expertise and AI work side by side to make faster, better diagnoses. Think of it this way—a doctor can spend an hour reading six or seven cases while AI can do six or seven thousand in seconds and then present the doctor with a range of possible medical conditions along with their related probabilities.
The other is reducing fraud( 欺 诈 ) . Fraud against big businesses seems nothing to do with us. In fact, it often ends up affecting us all, especially when insurance companies, for example, are forced to increase the premium( 保 费 ) to cover losses. AI is being used more and more in insurtech, both to speed up the claim( 索 赔 ) process and to mark possibly fraudulent claims more reliably. It does this by analysing big data trends. Faster processing and reduced fraud are good news for everyone, and that can save money for us.
32. What has affected the way of our lives most?
A. Reading books. B. Digital assistants.
C. Smart robots. D. Artificial Intelligence.
33. What does the underlined word “expertise” mean in paragraph 3?
A. Professional knowledge B. Interesting hobbies
C. Medical conditions D. Scientific research
34. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. AI can benefit us a lot.
B. AI can help us earn money.
C. AI makes the claim process slow.
D. AI makes us increase the premium.
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. How AI Is Reducing Fraud in Our Live.
B. How AI Is Touching All Our Lives for the Better.
C. What Advantages AI Is Bringing to Medical Diagnose.
D. In What Aspects AI Is Changing the Way of Entertainment.
【答案】32. D 33. A 34. A 35. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述人工智能在现实生活中，让我们的世界变得更美好的两种应用方式。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“In the digital age, we are becoming accustomed to technological innovations, and the fact that they can have a deep impact on our lives.”（在数字时代，我们越来越习惯于技术创新，以及它们对我们生活产生深远影响的事实。）可知，数字时代的技术创新对我们生活方式会产生深远的影响。第二段中“The number of the smartphone adult users has reached 85 percent in the UK population Meanwhile streaming and 5G tech are changing the way we watch movies, TV shows and sports events. But Artificial Intelligence(AI) is probably the biggest game-changer of them all. ”（智能手机成年用户的数量已达到英国人口的85%，与此同时，流媒体和5G技术正在改变我们观看电影、电视节目和体育赛事的方式。但人工智能(AI)可能是其中最大的游戏规则改变者。）可知，在众多的技术创新中，人工智能对我们的影响最大。故选D。
【33题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段划线词后一句“Think of it this way—a doctor can spend an hour reading six or seven cases while AI can do six or seven thousand in seconds and then present the doctor with a range of possible medical conditions along with their related probabilities.”（这样想吧——医生可以花一个小时阅读六七个病例，而人工智能可以在几秒钟内阅读六七千个病例，然后向医生提供一系列可能的医疗状况及其相关概率。）可知，在医疗领域，在人工智能的辅助下，医生可以得出一系列可能的医疗状况及其相关（疾病的）概率。此处医生为拥有医疗专业知识的人，因此可推知，划线词所在句的含义为“人工智能和医生类似的专业（知识）人士并肩工作，可以做出更快、更好的诊断。”，因此划线词此处指“人类的专业知识”，故选A。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“AI is being used more and more in insurtech, both to speed up the claim( 索 赔 ) process and to mark possibly fraudulent claims more reliably. It does this by analysing big data trends. Faster processing and reduced fraud are good news for everyone, and that can save money for us.”（人工智能在保险科技领域的应用越来越多，既可以加快理赔流程，也可以更可靠地标记可能存在的欺诈性理赔。它通过分析大数据趋势来做到这一点。更快的处理和减少欺诈对每个人来说都是好消息，这可以为我们节省资金。）说明了人工智能带给保险行业的好处：不仅可以加快理赔流程，也可以更可靠地标记可能存在的欺诈性理赔。实现这样的好处就是凭借人工智能对大数据的分析。所以本段主要讲述人工智能对我们很有益。故选A。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，结合文章第一段““In the digital age, we are becoming accustomed to technological innovations, and the fact that they can have a deep impact on our lives.”（在数字时代，我们越来越习惯于技术创新，以及它们对我们生活产生深远影响的事实。）可知，数字时代的技术创新对我们生活方式会产生深远的影响。第二段最后一句“Here are two real-world applications of AI that are already changing our world for the better”（以下是人工智能在现实世界中的两个应用，它们已经让我们的世界变得更美好。）可知，文章主要讲述人工智能在现实生活中，让我们的世界变得更美好的两种应用方式。因此文章的标题可以为“人工智能是如何让我们的世界变得更好。”选项B可以简要的概括文章主题，故选B。

【36题详解】
根据上文“People tend to think about a personal brand as bragging (自吹自擂) , self- promotion and all about yourself. But it's actually something much more important.”（人们倾向于认为个人品牌是炫耀、自我推销和关于自己的一切。但它其实是更重要的东西。）说明个人品牌是更重要的东西。下文“In other words, it's how people see you.”（换句话说，就是人们如何看待你的方式。）由此可推断出，此空应该是在说“个人品牌是你的名声（name）”，结合选项A项It's your name.（这就是你的名声。）符合此推断，起到上下文的承上启下作用。故选 A 项。
【37题详解】
根据副标题“Figure out your goal .（弄清楚你的目标）”和本段落内容“What do you want your personal brand to help you achieve? Are you looking to change jobs or enter a new industry, and you need your brand to reflect a new skill set?”（你希望你的个人品牌能帮助你实现什么目标？你是否想换工作或进入一个新的行业，你需要你的品牌来反映你的新技能？）可知，此处应是写下具体的目标。结合选项D项Write your aim down and make it specific.（把你的目标写下来，让它具体化。）符合此推断，为上文内容的语意递进。故选D项。
【38题详解】
本段副标题为“ Get clear on what you want to be known for .（弄清你想要以什么而出名）”本空后面两句“Are you a teacher who focuses on social and emotional learning? Or maybe you're a project manager who is reliable and always gets things done on time.”（你是一名注重社交和情感学习的老师吗？或者你是一个可靠的项目经理，总是能按时完成任务。）可知，分别从 teacher 和 project manager 方面进行了描述，由此可推知，此处应是“你想人们把你描述成什么样的专家？”结合选项G项How do you want people to describe you as an expert?（作为一个专家，你希望人们如何描述你？）符合此推断，起到上下文的承上启下作用，上下文语意连贯。故选G项。
【39题详解】
由该题为段落小标题可知，为总结该段内容。该段下文“I once coached someone who called herself a "death midwife", which no one understood. But when she started introducing herself as a grief advisor who works with families during a time of loss, all of a sudden everyone got it.”（我曾经指导过一个自称“死亡助产士”的人，没人能理解。但当她开始介绍自己是一名悲伤顾问，在失去亲人的时候为家人提供帮助时，突然间每个人都明白了。）根据本段落所举的例子，可以看出本段落给的建议是“介绍的时候不要让人感到困惑”。结合选项B项Lead with no confusion.（不要混淆视听。）意思一致，为总结该段内容。故选B项。
【40题详解】
根据本段副标题为“ Bring value to others online .（在网上给别人带去价值）”。以及下文“Share interesting articles related to you industry, post ideas or opinions that can benefit co-workers, and like or comment on posts shared by the people you follow.”（分享与你的行业相关的有趣文章，发表有利于同事的想法或观点，并对你关注的人分享的帖子点赞或评论。）为具体说明给别人带去价值方法。故可推断空格处内容为其中一个方法就是专注于一些有用的事。结合选项E项Focusing on something helpful is a good way.（专注于有益的事情是一个好方法。）符合此推断，起到上下文的承上启下作用，上下文语意连贯。故选E项。

第二节(共10小题; 每小题1.5分，满分15分)
阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式（不超过3个单词）。
Can you imagine kangaroo meat as ___56___ source of meat for Australians?

However, there ___59___ (be) a push to bring it back to dinner tables lately. This is ___60___ (large) due to the benefits of the meat.
Kangaroo meat is lean(脂肪少的) and has less than 2% fat. ___61___ addition, the BBC noted that kangaroos produce less methane (甲烷) than other ___62___ (animal), so they are considered to be more environmentally friendly.
However, despite all these benefits, most Australians still refuse ___63___ (eat) it. Also, it may make ___64___ (they) feel strange to eat kangaroo. Skippy the Bush Kangaroo, a popular TV series, is another reason ____65____ they may feel uncomfortable eating the meat.
【答案】56. a 57. was eaten
58. As 59. has been
60. largely
61. In 62. animals
63. to eat 64. them
65. why
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了吃袋鼠肉的好处以及大多数澳大利亚人拒绝食用袋鼠肉的原因。
【56题详解】
考查冠词。句意：你能想象袋鼠肉是澳大利亚人的一种肉类来源吗？表示“一种来源”source是可数名词，且发音以辅音音素开头，所以前用不定冠词a。故填a。
57题详解】
考查时态和语态。句意：澳大利亚土著居民吃袋鼠肉。eat与Kangaroo meat为动宾关系，用被动语态，Kangaroo meat作主语，谓语动词用第三人称单数，吃袋鼠肉发生在过去，故用一般过去时。故填was eaten。
【58题详解】
考查连词。句意：随着时间的推移，越来越多的人搬到城市，袋鼠肉变得不那么受欢迎。根据句意可知，此处应用连词as表示“随着……”。故填As。
【59题详解】
考查时态。句意：然而，最近有一股推动它重返餐桌的力量。lately意为最近，与现在完成时连用，句子真正的主语为a push，因此用第三人称单数形式。故填has been。
【60题详解】
考查副词。句意：这主要是由于肉的好处。这里用副词形式，在句中作状语。故填largely。
【61题详解】
考查固定搭配。句意：此外，BBC指出，袋鼠比其他动物产生的甲烷更少，因此被认为更环保。in addition“此外”，为固定搭配。故填In。
【62题详解】
考查名词的数。句意：此外，BBC指出，袋鼠比其他动物产生的甲烷更少，因此被认为更环保。animal为可数名词，上文没有冠词，由other修饰应用复数形式。故填animals。
【63题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：然而，尽管有这些好处，大多数澳大利亚人仍然拒绝吃它。refuse to do“拒绝做某事”，为固定搭配。故填to eat。
【64题详解】
考查人称代词。句意：此外，吃袋鼠可能会让他们感到奇怪。填空处为make的宾语，应用人称代词宾格。故填them。
【65题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：受欢迎的电视剧《丛林袋鼠跳跳》是他们吃这种肉会感到不舒服的另一个原因。先行词为reason，在定语从句中作原因状语，所以用关系副词why引导。故填why。

67. 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。
Emma had two exams that day — physics and history. She really hated physics. It was her worst subject. Alice looked at her, and then looked away quickly. Emma thought Alice looked pleased, because she didn’t have a problem with physics, she didn’t have a problem with anything...Miss Perfect!
“I thought we were friends, but she hasn’t spoken to me for two weeks now. she promised to help me go over for the physics exam too, but then she’s forgotten all my calls and texts. And when I rang her house, her mum just told me she was busy.” Emma thought angrily. At that moment, Mr. Read asked all the students into the exam room.
Emma couldn’t answer some physics questions. Suddenly she saw Alice sitting two rows in front of her. Emma couldn’t believe it! Alice was holding her phone on her knee under the table and reading from it. Is that how Alice always got such good grades? She felt really angry at Alice, and thought about telling the teacher, but...“Stop writing,” said Mr. Read and started to collect the exam papers. Oh no, Emma hadn’t answered two of the questions. She was going to fail again!
Emma wanted to talk to Alice at lunchtime, but she couldn’t find her anywhere. Emma went to the library to prepare for the history exam, which was her favorite. But she couldn’t concentrate. “Unfair! Alice was getting good grades by cheating all that time.” She thought about telling a teacher, but everyone would hate her if she did that. Just then, Mr. Read walked past her table. “Mr. Read...”
Emma was sitting behind Alice again in the history exam that afternoon. Mr. Read wanted her to look at Alice and agreed if she saw that Alice was cheating in the exam.

She was working on the last question when she saw that Alice had her phone under the table.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
Emma was walking towards the school gate when she saw Alice waiting for her there.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
She was working on the last question when she saw that Alice had her phone under the table. Emma nodded to Mr. Read. Mr. Read went to Alice quietly and picked up Alice’s phone. All was clear, and Mr. Read asked her to leave the classroom. Alice walked out crying. Everyone was staring at her and Emma felt really relaxed.
Emma was walking towards the school gate when she saw Alice waiting for her there. “Emma, please wait.” Alice said, “I’m sorry I haven’t answered any of your calls, but my dad’s been ill for two weeks and had a heart operation today. During exams I was reading texts from my mum to see how it was going. I have explained to Mr. Read and he asked me to take the exam again. I’m sorry I didn’t tell you what was happening.” Emma couldn’t help crying, either. “You should have told me this earlier. Let me know if you have difficulties. We are true friends.”
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Alice和Emma是好朋友，Alice是大家眼中的完美小姐，因为她成绩好，没有任何问题，但是Emma的物理成绩却很糟糕。在一次考试中，Emma坐在Alice后面，她发现Alice在看手机，Emma认为她在作弊。她很纠结，不知道该不该告诉老师，这时，Read老师找到Emma，让她监视Alice，看看她是否在作弊，Emma答应了。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“当她看到Alice把手机放在桌子下面时，她正在准备最后一个问题。”可知，第一段可描写考试中Alice看手机，Emma发现后，向Read老师点头，示意Alice正在作弊，于是老师发现Alice正在看手机，要她离开教室。
②由第二段首句内容“Emma正向学校大门走去，这时她看见Alice在那里等她。”可知，第二段可描写Alice告诉Emma自己没有接她电话的原因，以及自己在考试时看手机的原因，二人消除误会。
2.续写线索：看到Alice放手机——Emma点头示意老师——老师拿走Alice的手机——Alice离开教室——Alice在等Emma——Alice解释看手机的原因——误会消除——仍是好朋友

Traffic is moving slowly on the M16 and M30 motorway and the police say the M43 will stay closed for more than an hour, until nine. In the city, an accident at the North Street means that it is closed to all cars, and drivers must use New Street or Lake Street. Because of this, some journeys by bus are taking longer. The No.16 bus to the city center is really late. There are also problems for railway passengers because of thick snow on the tracks. All trains to Oxford are late and there will be no trains to London until lunchtime. Passengers should phone for the latest information about trains. This afternoon, it is going to be very windy.

From McDonald’s to Sonic, fast food had a bad effect on my waistline and my budget (预算). It was so easy to use my card for a small purchase (购买). For me, I got a lot of satisfaction from fast food.
One day I realized that I was spending a surprising $40 a week on fast food. This was a lot of iced coffee and hamburgers! I decided to give myself a tight budget to reduce my consumption. Every Monday I placed an envelope with $20 in my purse. That was my fast food budget for the whole week. If there was anything left over at the end of the week, it would be mine to save or spend. If I spent all of the money during the week, there would be no more fast food that week.
The budget made me more mindful of my purchases. Instead of purchasing a large drink from Sonic, I would purchase a small one. It was still satisfying but not nearly as expensive. Instead of eating a whole meal, I would pick the part that I actually wanted. I never really felt unhappy because it was a wise choice to spend or save with each purchase.
The envelope budget kept me honest. I had a clear idea how much money was spent each week on fast food purchases. I started to bring my lunches more often to save more money for the week. It was a fun challenge to see how much I could save every week.
Changing the way I spent on fast food not only helped my budget, but watched my weight. Now I am more likely to bring my lunch than to buy it. I am not upset, but allowed to make positive choices to improve my life.

A short while ago, I lost access to my We Chat account.I am not sure why it wouldn’t let me log in; perhaps it was my ancient, out-of-date phone. But I wasn’t upset because it offered me an opportunity to take a break from social media-something more and more people are doing.
In the United States, Twitter and Facebook has seen a 44 percent decline among its younger users. Stars such as Taylor Swift and Ed Sheeren have taken a break from social media because they were tired of so many Internet trolls leaving negative comments. Ordinary people (like me) are turning away from it because of the feeling that they were spending more time online and enjoying less.
It is not unusual for people to spend two or three hours a day posting or reading posts, to the point where it becomes an addiction.And it is an addiction. There is a chemical in your brain known as dopamine (多巴胺) which is sometimes called the “reward molecule”and its release gives you a feeling of pleasure. For instance, when you post a photo on We Chat and get a hundred likes, you feel happy. That’s dopamine at work.
In my case, being off We Chat is actually an added bonus. No doubt I missed my dopamine. And I got e-mails from friends wondering if I was fine or if I was just being anti-social. But I soon began to feel quite peaceful and started to worry less about what other people were doing and concentrate more on my personal life. And I’m getting better sleep at night.
I’m not advocating that all of you quit social media, but spending less time on these platforms does bring you advantages.
28. How did the author feel after he lost access to We Chat account?
A. Calm. B. Worried.
C. Disappointed. D. Surprised.
29. Why does the author list famous stars in paragraph 2?
A. To illustrate the importance of social media.
B. To compare them with ordinary people.
C. To give examples of quitting online platforms.
D. To show the popularity of social media.
30. What does the underlined word probably mean?
A. Desire. B. Benefit.
C. Mission. D. Joy.
31. What might the author continue talking about?
A. How to form good online habits.
B. How to use social media properly.
C. How to be smart online learners.
D. How to cut down the time spent online.
【答案】28. A 29. C 30. B 31. D
【解析】
【导语】本文为一篇议论文。如今越来越多的人暂时远离社交媒体，因为厌倦了网络喷子留下的负面评论或者觉得上网时间过长，影响了实际的个人生活。作者暂时离开微信后感到平静，开始更关注自己的生活，睡眠质量也有所提高，
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“A short while ago，I lost access to my We Chat account.I am not sure why it wouldn’t let me log in;perhaps it was my ancient，out-of-date phone.But I wasn’t upset because it offered me an opportunity to take a break from social media-something more and more people are doing. (不久前，我的微信账号无法访问了。我不知道为什么它不让我登录；也许是我那部旧的、过时的手机出了问题。但我并不沮丧，因为这给了我一个从社交媒体中休息一下的机会——越来越多的人都在这么做。)”，以及倒数第二段“But I soon began to feel quite peaceful and started to worry less about what other people were doing and concentrate more on my personal life. (但我很快就开始感到非常平静，开始不那么担心别人在做什么，而是更多地关注自己的个人生活。)”可知，在作者无法访问自己的微信账号后，作者没有沮丧，内心平静，故选A项。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“In the United States，Twitter and Facebook has seen a 44 percent decline among its younger users. Stars such as Taylor Swift and Ed Sheeren have taken a break from social media because they were tired of so many Internet trolls leaving negative comments. (在美国，Twitter和Facebook的年轻用户数量下降了44%。泰勒·斯威夫特和艾德·希林等明星已经暂时远离社交媒体，因为他们厌倦了太多网络喷子留下的负面评论。)”可知，第二段陈述了美国很多用户退出Twitter和Facebook，作者列出了远离社交媒体的著名的明星。目的是举一些退出网络平台的例子。故选C项。
【30题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词所在句“I’m not advocating that all of you quit social media, but spending less time on these platforms does bring you advantages.(并不是主张大家都放弃社交媒体，但减少在这些平台上的时间确实会给你带来advantages。)”可知，作者认为完全放弃社交媒体时没有必要的，说明社交媒体多多少少给人带来了负面影响，所以减少一点上网时间会给人带来好处，advantages与Benefit意思相近。故选B项。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“I’m not advocating that all of you quit social media, but spending less time on these platforms does bring you advantages. (并不是主张大家都放弃社交媒体，但减少在这些平台上的时间确实会给你带来好处。)”可知，接下来作者可能会谈一下如何减少上网时间，故选D项。
D
In the digital age, we are becoming accustomed to technological innovations, and the fact that they can have a deep impact on our lives.
The number of the smartphone adult users has reached 85 percent in the UK population. Meanwhile streaming and 5G tech are changing the way we watch movies, TV shows and sports events. But Artificial Intelligence(AI) is probably the biggest game-changer of them all. The biggest impacts have nothing to do with robots or even digital assistants like Google Home. Here are two real-world applications of AI that are already changing our world for the better
One is better medical diagnose. If you had some illness, would you want to be diagnosed by a doctor or a machine? You’d probably say the former, but in reality, the question is not that simple. Today, human expertise and AI work side by side to make faster, better diagnoses. Think of it this way—a doctor can spend an hour reading six or seven cases while AI can do six or seven thousand in seconds and then present the doctor with a range of possible medical conditions along with their related probabilities.
The other is reducing fraud( 欺 诈 ) . Fraud against big businesses seems nothing to do with us. In fact, it often ends up affecting us all, especially when insurance companies, for example, are forced to increase the premium( 保 费 ) to cover losses. AI is being used more and more in insurtech, both to speed up the claim( 索 赔 ) process and to mark possibly fraudulent claims more reliably. It does this by analysing big data trends. Faster processing and reduced fraud are good news for everyone, and that can save money for us.
32. What has affected the way of our lives most?
A. Reading books. B. Digital assistants.
C. Smart robots. D. Artificial Intelligence.
33. What does the underlined word “expertise” mean in paragraph 3?
A. Professional knowledge B. Interesting hobbies
C. Medical conditions D. Scientific research
34. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. AI can benefit us a lot.
B. AI can help us earn money.
C. AI makes the claim process slow.
D. AI makes us increase the premium.
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. How AI Is Reducing Fraud in Our Live.
B. How AI Is Touching All Our Lives for the Better.
C. What Advantages AI Is Bringing to Medical Diagnose.
D. In What Aspects AI Is Changing the Way of Entertainment.
【答案】32. D 33. A 34. A 35. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述人工智能在现实生活中，让我们的世界变得更美好的两种应用方式。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“In the digital age, we are becoming accustomed to technological innovations, and the fact that they can have a deep impact on our lives.”（在数字时代，我们越来越习惯于技术创新，以及它们对我们生活产生深远影响的事实。）可知，数字时代的技术创新对我们生活方式会产生深远的影响。第二段中“The number of the smartphone adult users has reached 85 percent in the UK population Meanwhile streaming and 5G tech are changing the way we watch movies, TV shows and sports events. But Artificial Intelligence(AI) is probably the biggest game-changer of them all. ”（智能手机成年用户的数量已达到英国人口的85%，与此同时，流媒体和5G技术正在改变我们观看电影、电视节目和体育赛事的方式。但人工智能(AI)可能是其中最大的游戏规则改变者。）可知，在众多的技术创新中，人工智能对我们的影响最大。故选D。
【33题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段划线词后一句“Think of it this way—a doctor can spend an hour reading six or seven cases while AI can do six or seven thousand in seconds and then present the doctor with a range of possible medical conditions along with their related probabilities.”（这样想吧——医生可以花一个小时阅读六七个病例，而人工智能可以在几秒钟内阅读六七千个病例，然后向医生提供一系列可能的医疗状况及其相关概率。）可知，在医疗领域，在人工智能的辅助下，医生可以得出一系列可能的医疗状况及其相关（疾病的）概率。此处医生为拥有医疗专业知识的人，因此可推知，划线词所在句的含义为“人工智能和医生类似的专业（知识）人士并肩工作，可以做出更快、更好的诊断。”，因此划线词此处指“人类的专业知识”，故选A。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“AI is being used more and more in insurtech, both to speed up the claim( 索 赔 ) process and to mark possibly fraudulent claims more reliably. It does this by analysing big data trends. Faster processing and reduced fraud are good news for everyone, and that can save money for us.”（人工智能在保险科技领域的应用越来越多，既可以加快理赔流程，也可以更可靠地标记可能存在的欺诈性理赔。它通过分析大数据趋势来做到这一点。更快的处理和减少欺诈对每个人来说都是好消息，这可以为我们节省资金。）说明了人工智能带给保险行业的好处：不仅可以加快理赔流程，也可以更可靠地标记可能存在的欺诈性理赔。实现这样的好处就是凭借人工智能对大数据的分析。所以本段主要讲述人工智能对我们很有益。故选A。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，结合文章第一段““In the digital age, we are becoming accustomed to technological innovations, and the fact that they can have a deep impact on our lives.”（在数字时代，我们越来越习惯于技术创新，以及它们对我们生活产生深远影响的事实。）可知，数字时代的技术创新对我们生活方式会产生深远的影响。第二段最后一句“Here are two real-world applications of AI that are already changing our world for the better”（以下是人工智能在现实世界中的两个应用，它们已经让我们的世界变得更美好。）可知，文章主要讲述人工智能在现实生活中，让我们的世界变得更美好的两种应用方式。因此文章的标题可以为“人工智能是如何让我们的世界变得更好。”选项B可以简要的概括文章主题，故选B。

But it's actually something much more important.”（人们倾向于认为个人品牌是炫耀、自我推销和关于自己的一切。但它其实是更重要的东西。）说明个人品牌是更重要的东西。下文“In other words, it's how people see you.”（换句话说，就是人们如何看待你的方式。）由此可推断出，此空应该是在说“个人品牌是你的名声（name）”，结合选项A项It's your name.（这就是你的名声。）符合此推断，起到上下文的承上启下作用。故选 A 项。
【37题详解】
根据副标题“Figure out your goal .（弄清楚你的目标）”和本段落内容“What do you want your personal brand to help you achieve? Are you looking to change jobs or enter a new industry, and you need your brand to reflect a new skill set?”（你希望你的个人品牌能帮助你实现什么目标？你是否想换工作或进入一个新的行业，你需要你的品牌来反映你的新技能？）可知，此处应是写下具体的目标。结合选项D项Write your aim down and make it specific.（把你的目标写下来，让它具体化。）符合此推断，为上文内容的语意递进。故选D项。
【38题详解】
本段副标题为“ Get clear on what you want to be known for .（弄清你想要以什么而出名）”本空后面两句“Are you a teacher who focuses on social and emotional learning? Or maybe you're a project manager who is reliable and always gets things done on time.”（你是一名注重社交和情感学习的老师吗？或者你是一个可靠的项目经理，总是能按时完成任务。）可知，分别从 teacher 和 project manager 方面进行了描述，由此可推知，此处应是“你想人们把你描述成什么样的专家？”结合选项G项How do you want people to describe you as an expert?（作为一个专家，你希望人们如何描述你？）符合此推断，起到上下文的承上启下作用，上下文语意连贯。故选G项。

【40题详解】
根据本段副标题为“ Bring value to others online .（在网上给别人带去价值）”。以及下文“Share interesting articles related to you industry, post ideas or opinions that can benefit co-workers, and like or comment on posts shared by the people you follow.”（分享与你的行业相关的有趣文章，发表有利于同事的想法或观点，并对你关注的人分享的帖子点赞或评论。）为具体说明给别人带去价值方法。故可推断空格处内容为其中一个方法就是专注于一些有用的事。结合选项E项Focusing on something helpful is a good way.（专注于有益的事情是一个好方法。）符合此推断，起到上下文的承上启下作用，上下文语意连贯。故选E项。

60. largely
61. In 62. animals
63. to eat 64. them
65. why
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了吃袋鼠肉的好处以及大多数澳大利亚人拒绝食用袋鼠肉的原因。
【56题详解】
考查冠词。句意：你能想象袋鼠肉是澳大利亚人的一种肉类来源吗？表示“一种来源”source是可数名词，且发音以辅音音素开头，所以前用不定冠词a。故填a。
57题详解】
考查时态和语态。句意：澳大利亚土著居民吃袋鼠肉。eat与Kangaroo meat为动宾关系，用被动语态，Kangaroo meat作主语，谓语动词用第三人称单数，吃袋鼠肉发生在过去，故用一般过去时。故填was eaten。
【58题详解】
考查连词。句意：随着时间的推移，越来越多的人搬到城市，袋鼠肉变得不那么受欢迎。根据句意可知，此处应用连词as表示“随着……”。故填As。
【59题详解】
考查时态。句意：然而，最近有一股推动它重返餐桌的力量。lately意为最近，与现在完成时连用，句子真正的主语为a push，因此用第三人称单数形式。故填has been。
【60题详解】
考查副词。句意：这主要是由于肉的好处。这里用副词形式，在句中作状语。故填largely。
【61题详解】
考查固定搭配。句意：此外，BBC指出，袋鼠比其他动物产生的甲烷更少，因此被认为更环保。in addition“此外”，为固定搭配。故填In。
【62题详解】
考查名词的数。句意：此外，BBC指出，袋鼠比其他动物产生的甲烷更少，因此被认为更环保。animal为可数名词，上文没有冠词，由other修饰应用复数形式。故填animals。
【63题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：然而，尽管有这些好处，大多数澳大利亚人仍然拒绝吃它。refuse to do“拒绝做某事”，为固定搭配。故填to eat。
【64题详解】
考查人称代词。句意：此外，吃袋鼠可能会让他们感到奇怪。填空处为make的宾语，应用人称代词宾格。故填them。
【65题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：受欢迎的电视剧《丛林袋鼠跳跳》是他们吃这种肉会感到不舒服的另一个原因。先行词为reason，在定语从句中作原因状语，所以用关系副词why引导。故填why。

67. 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。
Emma had two exams that day — physics and history. She really hated physics. It was her worst subject. Alice looked at her, and then looked away quickly. Emma thought Alice looked pleased, because she didn’t have a problem with physics, she didn’t have a problem with anything...Miss Perfect!
“I thought we were friends, but she hasn’t spoken to me for two weeks now. she promised to help me go over for the physics exam too, but then she’s forgotten all my calls and texts. And when I rang her house, her mum just told me she was busy.” Emma thought angrily. At that moment, Mr. Read asked all the students into the exam room.
Emma couldn’t answer some physics questions. Suddenly she saw Alice sitting two rows in front of her. Emma couldn’t believe it! Alice was holding her phone on her knee under the table and reading from it. Is that how Alice always got such good grades? She felt really angry at Alice, and thought about telling the teacher, but...“Stop writing,” said Mr. Read and started to collect the exam papers. Oh no, Emma hadn’t answered two of the questions. She was going to fail again!
Emma wanted to talk to Alice at lunchtime, but she couldn’t find her anywhere. Emma went to the library to prepare for the history exam, which was her favorite. But she couldn’t concentrate. “Unfair! Alice was getting good grades by cheating all that time.” She thought about telling a teacher, but everyone would hate her if she did that. Just then, Mr. Read walked past her table. “Mr. Read...”
Emma was sitting behind Alice again in the history exam that afternoon. Mr. Read wanted her to look at Alice and agreed if she saw that Alice was cheating in the exam.

Paragraph 2:
Emma was walking towards the school gate when she saw Alice waiting for her there.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
She was working on the last question when she saw that Alice had her phone under the table. Emma nodded to Mr. Read. Mr. Read went to Alice quietly and picked up Alice’s phone. All was clear, and Mr. Read asked her to leave the classroom. Alice walked out crying. Everyone was staring at her and Emma felt really relaxed.
Emma was walking towards the school gate when she saw Alice waiting for her there. “Emma, please wait.” Alice said, “I’m sorry I haven’t answered any of your calls, but my dad’s been ill for two weeks and had a heart operation today. During exams I was reading texts from my mum to see how it was going. I have explained to Mr. Read and he asked me to take the exam again. I’m sorry I didn’t tell you what was happening.” Emma couldn’t help crying, either. “You should have told me this earlier. Let me know if you have difficulties. We are true friends.”
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Alice和Emma是好朋友，Alice是大家眼中的完美小姐，因为她成绩好，没有任何问题，但是Emma的物理成绩却很糟糕。在一次考试中，Emma坐在Alice后面，她发现Alice在看手机，Emma认为她在作弊。她很纠结，不知道该不该告诉老师，这时，Read老师找到Emma，让她监视Alice，看看她是否在作弊，Emma答应了。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“当她看到Alice把手机放在桌子下面时，她正在准备最后一个问题。”可知，第一段可描写考试中Alice看手机，Emma发现后，向Read老师点头，示意Alice正在作弊，于是老师发现Alice正在看手机，要她离开教室。
②由第二段首句内容“Emma正向学校大门走去，这时她看见Alice在那里等她。”可知，第二段可描写Alice告诉Emma自己没有接她电话的原因，以及自己在考试时看手机的原因，二人消除误会。
2.续写线索：看到Alice放手机——Emma点头示意老师——老师拿走Alice的手机——Alice离开教室——Alice在等Emma——Alice解释看手机的原因——误会消除——仍是好朋友
