3．（2024春 黄埔区校级期末） A maternal caprine creature possesses the remarkable ability to discern her offspring's vocalizations by the tender age of merely five days post﹣birth.Investigators from the University of London conducted an experiment where they exposed adult female goats to the bleats of their progeny，subsequently analyzing their reactions.The findings were astonishing；the goats were capable of identifying the unique voices of their own young.
Dr.Elodie Briefer，the principal investigator，elucidated to BBC News， "In the natural environment，mothers and their offspring predominantly rely on olfactory cues for mutual recognition.During the initial week of life，these creatures typically conceal themselves within the verdant grasses，emitting minimal vocalizations.This tactic is employed to evade potential predators." She further elaborated， "The maternal figure emits calls to summon her offspring when she desires them to partake in nourishment，hence we anticipated that the young would be adept at recognizing the maternal voice." Interestingly，this phenomenon was also observed in deer，which similarly employ this concealment strategy，despite not being taxonomically related to goats.
Dr.Briefer and her research team documented the vocal calls of the juvenile goats and subsequently played these recordings to the female goats，meticulously noting their responses.She noted， "Even when the vocalizations originated from offspring as young as five to six days，we observed the mothers exhibiting a heightened responsiveness to the voices of their progeny." Upon detecting the vocalizations of their own offspring，the female goats would direct their gaze towards the source of the sound，engaging in movement and vocalizing in reply.
The scientific community emphasizes the significance of comprehending the behavioral patterns and communicative methods of goats.Dr.Briefer remarked， "Gaining insight into these aspects aids in appreciating the intellectual capabilities of these creatures." She suggested， "Agriculturalists might consider revising their goat﹣rearing practices in light of this innate behavior."
（1）What does the underlined word "bleats" means？

4．（2023春 广州期末） Rain is vital to life on Earth.However，rain isn't just made of water anymore — it's partly made of plastic.
Millions of tiny pieces of plastic，called microplastics，are wandering around Earth's atmosphere and traveling across entire continents，according to a study published in the Journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences on April 12.Another study，published in the Journal Science in June 2020，has revealed that every year more than 1，000 tons of the particles （颗粒） — equivalent to over 120 million plastic bottles — fall in rain.
Microplastics are plastic particles less than 5 millimeters in diameter （直径） and come from a number of sources.Plastic bags and bottles released into the environment break down into smaller and smaller bits.Another major source is your washing machine.When you wash synthetic clothing，tiny microfibers get flushed away with the wastewater.Even though the water is treated by a wastewater plant，the microplastics remain，and they are released into the sea，according to American Magazine Wired.
Plastic rain may remind people of acid rain，but the former is far more widespread and harder to deal with.The tiny particles，too small to be seen with the naked eye，are collected by the wind from the ground.They are so light that they stay in the air to be blown around the globe.Some of the dust falls back to land in dry conditions，while the rest comes down as rain，according to the Daily Mail.
Microplastics have been found everywhere you can imagine.From fish and frogs to mice and mosquitoes，their bodies have been found，on average，to contain 40 pieces of microplastic，reported Daily Mail.As the top of the food chain，humans are exposed to microplastics，too. "We live on a ball inside a bubble，" microplastic researcher Steve Allen at University of Strathclyde，Scotland，told Wired. "There are no borders，there are no edges.It （plastic rain） rains on the land and then gets blown back up into the air again，to move somewhere else.There's no stopping it once it's out."
（1）What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about？ 　 　
A．Ways to deal with microplastics.
B．The wide use of microplastics.
C．How microplastics pollute water.
D．How microplastics come into being.
（2）What do we know about microplastics？ 　 　
A．They have a diameter of at least 5 millimeters.
B．They have entered the human food chain.
C．They are light and can be easily dealt with.
D．They result in both acid rain and plastic rain.
（3）What do Steve Allen's words mean in the last paragraph？ 　 　
A．No place on the globe is safe from microplastic pollution.
B．The atmosphere possesses the capacity to self﹣cleanse.
C．Countries should work together to fight plastic pollution.
D．It is important to remove microplastics somewhere else.
（4）What's the main purpose of the article？ 　 　
A．To compare acid rain and plastic rain.
B．To warn people of the dangers of microplastics.
C．To introduce the sources and effects of microplastics.
D．To call on people to reduce using plastic products.
5．（2023春 广州期末）We are often so attracted by the promises of modern digital life that we fail to notice its danger.It's that feeling of losing control that we get a dozen times a day，from when we get distracted（分心）with our phones in a discussion to when we can't appreciate a private moment without sharing it with virtual audience.
In my first attempt to get control over my technology use，I set my phone to vibrate rather than ring.Soon after，another problem appeared.The act of continually checking the phone became a habit.I knew then that using only tips to permanently reform digital life is difficult.We should go past the notification settings（通知模式）on our devices or apps and consider the more essential topic of why we use so many apps in the first place.What all of us who are struggling with these challenges need is a technology usage philosophy，something that explains from the ground up which digital tools we allow into our lives，why，and under what conditions.
Cal Newport，a professor of computer science，defines Digital Minimalism（极简主义）as a "philosophy of technology use in which you focus your online time on a small number of carefully selected activities that strongly support the things you value，and then happily miss out on everything else."
To do so，however，we cannot passively allow the tools and apps provided by the internet age to control how we spend our time or how we feel.Instead，we must take steps to draw the positive aspects of these technologies while sidestepping the negative aspects.
（1）What does "its danger" in the first paragraph refer to？ 　 　
A．Feeling depressed.
B．Getting distracted in a discussion.
C．Giving up private moments.
D．Losing control of your digital life.
（2）Why does the author mention his own experiences？ 　 　
A．To make a comparison.
B．To explain a phenomenon.
C．To bring in a better solution.
D．To clarify misunderstandings.
（3）Which of the following will digital minimalists agree to？ 　 　
A．Ignoring the side effect of digital tools.
B．Devoting your screen time to valuable things.
C．Spending more time selecting information.
D．Getting away from entertainment apps.
（4）What's the text mainly about？ 　 　
A．Reforms in life.
B．Technology challenges.
C．Apps and social media sites.
D．Technology usage philosophy.
三．信息匹配（共1小题）
6．（2024春 广州期末） Have you considered how to choose your major in university，which is of great significance for your future career？Here is some practical advice.
Initially，don't choose a major merely based on money，otherwise mistakes will happen.（1）　 　 Can you see yourself investing the next 40 years in this career without getting bored？Actually choosing a major with high﹣paying career won't guarantee you a high﹣paying job.It depends on position openings and your competitors when you graduate.
（2）　 　 You want to pick something that interests you，but you need to be sure you won't get sick of it as time progresses.（3）　 　 A hobby is a pursuit outside one's regular occupation for relaxation while passion comforts you and drives you crazy at the same time.It isn't relaxing.It inserts itself into your life.When you choose to study your hobby and build your life around it，it can lose its appeal and won't be relaxing.
Thirdly，never choose a major by feeling instead of research.Being interested in a major isn't enough.Researching the field will ensure you to choose a right major.If you know someone in the field，ask them for some information.Besides，consider the entire journey you'll pursue—the coursework，the major demands，the school time you'll need，and the available job prospects.（4）　 　
Lastly，don't always depend on your parents.（5）　 　 However，the choice is ultimately yours.If anyone wants to help you in choosing a major and you completely agree with their opinions，then go with it.But if you want your future to go in any other direction，speak up.The only way to get the best outcome is to shape your own future.
A．Next，a hobby is never meant to be your priority.
B．The opinions of your family aren't something to ignore.
C．Besides，keep a balance between hobbies and relaxation.
D．Typically，people will confuse their hobbies with their passions.
E．You should also consider your passions，dislikes，and happiness.
F．Remember college is an investment of both your time and money.
G．If you're passionate about a major after research，follow your heart.

7．（2024春 荔湾区期末） Hutongs，also known as alleys，are a key feature of Beijing's traditional architecture and culture.Originally built during the Yuan Dynasty，hutongs（1）　 　 （design） to provide housing for the city's growing population while also serving as a means of transportation and social interaction.Over the centuries，hutongs have witnessed countless（2）　 　 （dynasty） rise and fall，and yet they remain（3）　 　 （stand）.They show the toughness of this ancient city.

My brother Cody and I were in the back seat playing the guessing game I Spy when the rainstorm started.Fat drops of rain，like a million tiny water balloons，landed on our car，making it hard to keep the view clear.
"I spy something wet，"I said.
"Not fair，"said Cody，"Everything looks wet."
He was right.In the hour since we'd left Grandma's house to return to our house，the weather had gotten worse.The highway was slippery.
"I meant Mom's raincoat，"I told Cody.We continued our game.Cody's turn came."I spy something green，"Cody said.In the meantime，Dad expressed his concerns about the worsening visibility to Mom.The forecast had mentioned rain showers，but this seemed more severe.On either side of the highway，deep ditches （沟渠） were filling with water.As the car slipped on the wet pools，I noticed Dad's hands were tight on the steering wheel，his knuckles raised like bony mountains.
"Guess，"Cody insisted."The green highway sign？"I guessed，although it was hard to read it.Wet rain blocked most of the letters.I looked around."The green hat on the girl in the car behind us？""Yes!"Cody laughed."Your turn."
At that moment，our car swerved（打滑） toward a ditch.Dad managed to straighten the wheel and stay on the road.My heart pounded like I was in a race.Other cars had also swerved toward the ditch.If we went down，how would we ever get out？
Nobody talked.Cody and I stopped playing I Spy.Dad said we needed to get off and wait out this storm.Mom added，"Maybe we can find a place to have a rest."But we can hardly see the road，let alone an exit.

【分析】本文是一篇应用文。主要讲述了马里斯学校2024﹣2025学年招生信息，主要针对7年级和9年级学生，分别招收150名和50名学生。
【解答】（1）文章类型题。根据文章标题Apply for the 2024﹣2025 School Year（申请2024﹣2025学年）和内容可知这是一份招生简章。故答案为A。
（2）细节理解题。根据文章Apply for the 2024—2025 School Year部分的The application for the academic year spanning 2024 to 2025 will be accessible by late September，with a final submission deadline set for January 18，2024.（2024至2025学年的申请将于9月下旬公布，最终提交截止日期为2024年1月18日。）可知2024年1月下旬无法申请圣母学校。故答案为D。
（3）细节理解题。根据文章Apply for the 2024—2025 School Year部分的It is imperative to note that Marist maintains the necessity of the Secondary School Admission Test （SSAT） as a component of the application process.On the Sabbath of January 6，2024，Marist will act as a communal examination venue for the SSAT.This date represents the terminal national testing occasion preceding our application deadline，by which a preliminary set of SSAT scores must be tendered.（需要注意的是，Marist坚持认为中学入学考试（SSAT）是申请过程的一个组成部分。在2024年1月6日的安息日，玛丽斯特将作为SSAT的公共考场。该日期代表我们申请截止日期之前的最终国家测试时间，在此之前必须提交一套初步的SSAT分数。）可知提交申请的正确方式是亲自去。故答案为A。
【点评】一、速读全文，了解大意知主题。阅读能力一般指阅读速度和理解能力两个方面。阅读速度是阅读最基本的能力，考生必须在十分有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读，搜寻关键词、主题句，捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点，并且理清文章脉络，把握语篇实质。二、看题干，带着问题读文章。首先要掌握问题的类型，客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案；而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调等，这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等。其次，了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息，然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读，对有关信息进行快速定位。此法加强了阅读的针对性，提高了做题的准确率。三、逻辑推理，做好深层理解题。在实际阅读中，有时作者并未把意图说出来，阅读者要根据字面意思，通过语篇逻辑关系，研究细节的暗示，推敲作者的态度，理解文章的寓义。要求读者对文字的表面信息进行分析、挖掘和逻辑推理，不能就事论事，以偏概全。推理题在提问中常用的词有：infer，imply，suggest，indicate等。四、猜词悟义，扫除阅读拦路虎。猜词是应用英语的重要能力。它不但需要准确无误地理解上下文，而且要有较大的泛读量，掌握或认识较多的课外词汇。我们要学会"顺藤摸瓜"，通过构词，语法，定义，同位，对比，因果，常识，上下文等线索确定词义。
3．（2024春 黄埔区校级期末） A maternal caprine creature possesses the remarkable ability to discern her offspring's vocalizations by the tender age of merely five days post﹣birth.Investigators from the University of London conducted an experiment where they exposed adult female goats to the bleats of their progeny，subsequently analyzing their reactions.The findings were astonishing；the goats were capable of identifying the unique voices of their own young.
Dr.Elodie Briefer，the principal investigator，elucidated to BBC News， "In the natural environment，mothers and their offspring predominantly rely on olfactory cues for mutual recognition.During the initial week of life，these creatures typically conceal themselves within the verdant grasses，emitting minimal vocalizations.This tactic is employed to evade potential predators." She further elaborated， "The maternal figure emits calls to summon her offspring when she desires them to partake in nourishment，hence we anticipated that the young would be adept at recognizing the maternal voice." Interestingly，this phenomenon was also observed in deer，which similarly employ this concealment strategy，despite not being taxonomically related to goats.
Dr.Briefer and her research team documented the vocal calls of the juvenile goats and subsequently played these recordings to the female goats，meticulously noting their responses.She noted， "Even when the vocalizations originated from offspring as young as five to six days，we observed the mothers exhibiting a heightened responsiveness to the voices of their progeny." Upon detecting the vocalizations of their own offspring，the female goats would direct their gaze towards the source of the sound，engaging in movement and vocalizing in reply.
The scientific community emphasizes the significance of comprehending the behavioral patterns and communicative methods of goats.Dr.Briefer remarked， "Gaining insight into these aspects aids in appreciating the intellectual capabilities of these creatures." She suggested， "Agriculturalists might consider revising their goat﹣rearing practices in light of this innate behavior."
（1）What does the underlined word "bleats" means？ 　B　
A.Habits.

【答案】BDAC
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述了母山羊在出生后仅五天就能辨识自己幼崽的叫声。伦敦大学的研究者通过实验发现，成年母山羊能识别自己幼崽的独特声音。
【解答】（1）猜测词义题。根据第二段The maternal figure emits calls to summon her offspring when she desires them to partake in nourishment，hence we anticipated that the young would be adept at recognizing the maternal voice（当母象想要它们分享营养时，它会发出召唤来召唤它的后代，因此我们预期幼象会善于识别母象的声音）可知"bleats"在文中指的是山羊的叫声"。A.Habits习惯；B.Voices声音；C.Responses回复；D.Videos视频。故选B。
（2）细节理解题。根据第二段Dr.Elodie Briefer，the principal investigator，elucidated to BBC News， "In the natural environment，mothers and their offspring predominantly rely on olfactory cues for mutual recognition.During the initial week of life，these creatures typically conceal themselves within the verdant grasses，emitting minimal vocalizations.This tactic is employed to evade potential predators." （首席研究员Elodie Briefer博士向BBC新闻解释说："在自然环境中，母亲和她们的后代主要依靠嗅觉线索进行相互识别。在生命的最初一周，这些生物通常隐藏在翠绿的草丛中，发出最少的声音。这种策略被用来躲避潜在的捕食者。）可知在最初的几天里，山羊母亲和幼崽主要依靠嗅觉线索来相互识别。故选D。
（3）细节理解题。根据第三段Upon detecting the vocalizations of their own offspring，the female goats would direct their gaze towards the source of the sound，engaging in movement and vocalizing in reply.（当探测到自己后代的发声时，母羊会将目光投向声音的来源，参与运动并发声回应。）可知当山羊母亲听到幼崽的声音时，会发出声音回应。故选A。
（4）推理判断题。根据最后一段The scientific community emphasizes the significance of comprehending the behavioral patterns and communicative methods of goats.Dr.Briefer remarked， "Gaining insight into these aspects aids in appreciating the intellectual capabilities of these creatures." She suggested， "Agriculturalists might consider revising their goat﹣rearing practices in light of this innate behavior."（科学界强调理解山羊的行为模式和交流方式的重要性。布里弗博士评论道："深入了解这些方面有助于理解这些生物的智力。"她建议，"农学家们可以根据这种天生的行为考虑修改他们的山羊饲养方法。"）可知这篇文章主要是写给农民看的。故选C。

4．（2023春 广州期末） Rain is vital to life on Earth.However，rain isn't just made of water anymore — it's partly made of plastic.
Millions of tiny pieces of plastic，called microplastics，are wandering around Earth's atmosphere and traveling across entire continents，according to a study published in the Journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences on April 12.Another study，published in the Journal Science in June 2020，has revealed that every year more than 1，000 tons of the particles （颗粒） — equivalent to over 120 million plastic bottles — fall in rain.
Microplastics are plastic particles less than 5 millimeters in diameter （直径） and come from a number of sources.Plastic bags and bottles released into the environment break down into smaller and smaller bits.Another major source is your washing machine.When you wash synthetic clothing，tiny microfibers get flushed away with the wastewater.Even though the water is treated by a wastewater plant，the microplastics remain，and they are released into the sea，according to American Magazine Wired.
Plastic rain may remind people of acid rain，but the former is far more widespread and harder to deal with.The tiny particles，too small to be seen with the naked eye，are collected by the wind from the ground.They are so light that they stay in the air to be blown around the globe.Some of the dust falls back to land in dry conditions，while the rest comes down as rain，according to the Daily Mail.
Microplastics have been found everywhere you can imagine.From fish and frogs to mice and mosquitoes，their bodies have been found，on average，to contain 40 pieces of microplastic，reported Daily Mail.As the top of the food chain，humans are exposed to microplastics，too. "We live on a ball inside a bubble，" microplastic researcher Steve Allen at University of Strathclyde，Scotland，told Wired. "There are no borders，there are no edges.It （plastic rain） rains on the land and then gets blown back up into the air again，to move somewhere else.There's no stopping it once it's out."
（1）What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about？ 　D　
A．Ways to deal with microplastics.
B．The wide use of microplastics.
C．How microplastics pollute water.
D．How microplastics come into being.
（2）What do we know about microplastics？ 　B　
A．They have a diameter of at least 5 millimeters.
B．They have entered the human food chain.
C．They are light and can be easily dealt with.
D．They result in both acid rain and plastic rain.
（3）What do Steve Allen's words mean in the last paragraph？ 　A　
A．No place on the globe is safe from microplastic pollution.
B．The atmosphere possesses the capacity to self﹣cleanse.
C．Countries should work together to fight plastic pollution.
D．It is important to remove microplastics somewhere else.
（4）What's the main purpose of the article？ 　C　
A．To compare acid rain and plastic rain.
B．To warn people of the dangers of microplastics.
C．To introduce the sources and effects of microplastics.
D．To call on people to reduce using plastic products.
【答案】 （1）﹣（4）DBAC
【分析】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了微塑料无处不在，并分析它的来源和它对生物造成的影响。
【解答】（1）段落大意题。根据第三段Microplastics are plastic particles less than 5 millimeters in diameter （直径） and come from a number of sources.（微塑料是指直径小于5毫米的塑料颗粒，有多种来源。）和下文提到的三种微塑料来源可知，本段主要讲微塑料是怎么形成的，故选D。
（2）推理判断题。根据第五段Microplastics have been found everywhere you can imagine.From fish and frogs to mice and mosquitoes，their bodies have been found，on average，to contain 40 pieces of microplastic，reported Daily Mail.As the top of the food chain，humans are exposed to microplastics，too.（你能想象到的所有地方都有微塑料。据英国《每日邮报》报道，从鱼、青蛙到老鼠和蚊子，人们发现它们的尸体平均含有40片微塑料。作为食物链的顶端，人类也暴露在微塑料中。）可知，微塑料存在于整个生物食物链中，同时也影响整个食物链，故选B。
（3）推理判断题。根据最后一段We live on a ball inside a bubble，" microplastic researcher Steve Allen at University of Strathclyde，Scotland，told Wired. "There are no borders，there are no edges.It（plastic rain）raining on the land and then getting blown back up into the air again，to move somewhere else.There's no stopping it once it's out."（我们生活在一个气泡里的球上"，苏格兰斯特拉斯克莱德大学的微塑料研究员史蒂夫 艾伦告诉《连线》杂志。"没有边界，没有边缘。塑料雨落在地上，然后又被吹到空中，移到别的地方去。一旦落了，就再也挡不住了。）可知，他认为微塑料造成的污染无法逃避，没有安全的地方，故选A。
（4）写作目的题。根据第一段Rain is vital to life on Earth.However，rain isn't just made of water anymore﹣it's partly made of plastic.（雨水对地球上的生命至关重要。然而，雨水不再只是由水构成，它部分是由塑料构成的。）可知，本文用雨引出微塑料无处不在这一话题，第三自然段分析了微塑料的三个来源，四五自然段介绍它对生物的影响。因此，本文的主要目的是介绍微塑料的来源和影响。A.To compare acid rain and plastic rain.比较酸雨和塑料雨；B.To warn people of the dangers of microplastics.警告人们微塑料的危险；C.To introduce the sources and effects of microplastics.介绍微塑料的来源和影响；D.To call on people to reduce using plastic products.呼吁人们减少使用塑料制品。故选C。
【点评】做这类题材阅读理解时要求考生对文章通读一遍，做题时结合原文和题目有针对性的找出相关语句进行仔细分析，结合选项填写出正确答案。
5．（2023春 广州期末）We are often so attracted by the promises of modern digital life that we fail to notice its danger.It's that feeling of losing control that we get a dozen times a day，from when we get distracted（分心）with our phones in a discussion to when we can't appreciate a private moment without sharing it with virtual audience.
In my first attempt to get control over my technology use，I set my phone to vibrate rather than ring.Soon after，another problem appeared.The act of continually checking the phone became a habit.I knew then that using only tips to permanently reform digital life is difficult.We should go past the notification settings（通知模式）on our devices or apps and consider the more essential topic of why we use so many apps in the first place.What all of us who are struggling with these challenges need is a technology usage philosophy，something that explains from the ground up which digital tools we allow into our lives，why，and under what conditions.
Cal Newport，a professor of computer science，defines Digital Minimalism（极简主义）as a "philosophy of technology use in which you focus your online time on a small number of carefully selected activities that strongly support the things you value，and then happily miss out on everything else."
To do so，however，we cannot passively allow the tools and apps provided by the internet age to control how we spend our time or how we feel.Instead，we must take steps to draw the positive aspects of these technologies while sidestepping the negative aspects.

【答案】DCBD
【分析】本文为一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了在这个数字信息时代，人们容易被科技产品所控制，如果人类不想被互联网时代的工具所控制，就要学会利用这些技术的积极方面，避开消极方面。
【解答】（1）D.词句猜测题。根据第一段We are often so attracted by the promises of modem digital life.（我们常常被现代数字生活的许诺所吸引。）It's that feeling of losing control that we get a dozen times a day，from when we get distracted（分心）with our phones in a discussion to when we can't appreciate a private moment without sharing it with virtual audience.（这种失控的感觉每天都会出现十几次，从我们在讨论时因为手机而分心，到我们因为无法与虚拟观众分享而不能享受私人时刻。）可知，这里所指的危害是指"对失去对数字生活的控制。"故选D。
（2）C.推理判断题。根据第二段We should go past the notification settings（通知模式）on our devices or apps and consider the more essential topic of why we use so many apps in the first place.What all of us who are struggling with these challenges need is a technology usage philosophy，something that explains from the ground up which digital tools we allow into our lives，why，and under what conditions.（我们应该跳过设备或应用程序的通知设置，考虑一下更重要的主题：为什么我们首先要使用这么多应用程序。我们所有与这些挑战抗争的人都需要一种技术使用哲学，一种从根本上解释我们允许哪些数字工具进入我们的生活，为什么，以及在什么条件下。）可知，作者提出了一个更好的解决方案。故选C。
（3）B.推理判断题。根据第三段Cal Newport，a professor of computer science，defines Digital Minimalism（极简主义）as a "philosophy of technology use in which you focus your online time on a small number of carefully selected activities that strongly support the things you value，and then happily miss out on everything else."（计算机科学教授Cal Newport将数字极简主义定义为"一种技术使用的哲学，你把你的上网时间集中在一小部分精心挑选的你所重视的活动上，然后愉快地放弃其他一切事。）可推断，极简主义者上网用来做自己最重视的事情。故选B。
（4）D.主旨大意题。根据最后一段To do so，however，we cannot passively allow the tools and apps provided by the internet age to control how we spend our time or how we feel.Instead，we must take steps to draw the positive aspects of these technologies while sidestepping the negative aspects. （然而，要做到这一点，我们不能被动地让互联网时代提供的工具和应用程序来控制我们如何花费时间或如何感受。相反，我们必须措施，汲取这些技术的积极方面，同时避开消极方面。）可知，本篇文章主要介绍的是技术使用的哲学，故选D。

三．信息匹配（共1小题）
6．（2024春 广州期末） Have you considered how to choose your major in university，which is of great significance for your future career？Here is some practical advice.
Initially，don't choose a major merely based on money，otherwise mistakes will happen.（1）　E　 Can you see yourself investing the next 40 years in this career without getting bored？Actually choosing a major with high﹣paying career won't guarantee you a high﹣paying job.It depends on position openings and your competitors when you graduate.
（2）　A　 You want to pick something that interests you，but you need to be sure you won't get sick of it as time progresses.（3）　D　 A hobby is a pursuit outside one's regular occupation for relaxation while passion comforts you and drives you crazy at the same time.It isn't relaxing.It inserts itself into your life.When you choose to study your hobby and build your life around it，it can lose its appeal and won't be relaxing.
Thirdly，never choose a major by feeling instead of research.Being interested in a major isn't enough.Researching the field will ensure you to choose a right major.If you know someone in the field，ask them for some information.Besides，consider the entire journey you'll pursue—the coursework，the major demands，the school time you'll need，and the available job prospects.（4）　G　
Lastly，don't always depend on your parents.（5）　B　 However，the choice is ultimately yours.If anyone wants to help you in choosing a major and you completely agree with their opinions，then go with it.But if you want your future to go in any other direction，speak up.The only way to get the best outcome is to shape your own future.
A．Next，a hobby is never meant to be your priority.
B．The opinions of your family aren't something to ignore.
C．Besides，keep a balance between hobbies and relaxation.
D．Typically，people will confuse their hobbies with their passions.
E．You should also consider your passions，dislikes，and happiness.
F．Remember college is an investment of both your time and money.
G．If you're passionate about a major after research，follow your heart.
【答案】见试题解答内容
【分析】本文是一篇说明文，主要针对如何选择对未来职业有用的大学专业提出了一些实用的建议。
【解答】（1）联系上文题。前文Initially，don't choose a major merely based on money，otherwise mistakes will happen.（一开始，不要仅仅基于金钱来选择专业，否则会出错。）讲述了不要仅仅根据金钱来选择专业，空处应讲述应该考虑的其他因素，E．You should also consider your passions，dislikes，and happiness."你还应该考虑你的激情、厌恶和幸福。"符合题意。故选E。
（2）段落大意题。空处是本段的主旨句。根据后文的You want to pick something that interests you，but you need to be sure you won't get sick of it as time progresses.（你想挑选一些你感兴趣的东西，但你需要确保随着时间的推移，你不会厌倦它。）和When you choose to study your hobby and build your life around it，it can lose its appeal and won't be relaxing.（当你选择研究你的爱好并围绕它建立你的生活时，它可能会失去吸引力，也不会令人放松。）可知，本段主要讲述的是选择专业的时候不要首先考虑自己的爱好，A．Next，a hobby is never meant to be your priority."其次，爱好从来都不是你的首要任务。"符合题意。故选A。
（3）联系下文题。后文A hobby is a pursuit outside one's regular occupation for relaxation while passion comforts you and drives you crazy at the same time.（爱好是一种在日常工作之外的放松追求，而激情既能安慰你，又能让你发疯。）讲述了爱好和激情之间的区别，所以空处应讲述的是二者容易被混为一谈，D．Typically，people will confuse their hobbies with their passions."通常，人们会将自己的爱好与激情混为一谈。"符合题意。故选D。
（4）联系上文题。根据本段主旨句Thirdly，never choose a major by feeling instead of research.（第三，千万不要凭感觉而非研究来选择专业。）可知，本段主要建议在选专业之前要进行研究，G．If you're passionate about a major after research，follow your heart."如果你在研究之后对某个专业充满热情，那就用心去做吧。"符合题意。故选G。
（5）语境衔接题。前文Lastly，don't always depend on your parents.（最后，不要总是依赖你的父母。）讲述了不要总是依赖父母的意见，后文However，the choice is ultimately yours.（然而，最终选择权在你。）讲述了最终做决定的是你自己，由此可知，空处应是说家人的意见不容忽视，B．The opinions of your family aren't something to ignore."你的家人的意见不容忽视。"符合题意。故选B。
【点评】七选五阅读是完成性阅读，和完形填空很类似，不同的是一个选词，一个选句子。解题时，要注意上下文语境，充分考虑信息词（选项中和空格前后句子中相同或相近的词），选出最符合语境的句子。
四．语法填空（共1小题）
7．（2024春 荔湾区期末） Hutongs，also known as alleys，are a key feature of Beijing's traditional architecture and culture.Originally built during the Yuan Dynasty，hutongs（1）　were designed　 （design） to provide housing for the city's growing population while also serving as a means of transportation and social interaction.Over the centuries，hutongs have witnessed countless（2）　dynasties　 （dynasty） rise and fall，and yet they remain（3）　standing　 （stand）.They show the toughness of this ancient city.

【答案】（1）were designed（2）dynasties（3）standing（4）a（5）in（6）improved（7）fashionable（8）welcomes（9）Truly（10）where
【分析】这是一篇说明文，主要介绍了北京的胡同，介绍了胡同的起源以及功能和变迁。
【解答】（1）考查动词时态语态和主谓一致。句意：胡同最初建于元代，旨在为城市不断增长的人口提供住房，同时也是交通和社交的一种方式。根据前面的Originally built during the Yuan Dynasty，可知描述过去的事情，所以用一般过去时态，design和主语之间是被动关系，所以用被动语态，主语为名词复数hutongs，所以be动词为were，故填were designed。
（2）考查可数名词的复数。句意：几个世纪以来，胡同见证了无数王朝的兴衰，但它们依然屹立不倒。dynasty为可数名词，前面有countless，所以用名词复数，故填dynasties。
（3）考查形容词。句意：几个世纪以来，胡同见证了无数王朝的兴衰，但它们依然屹立不倒。remain"依然"，为系动词，后跟形容词作表语，故填standing。
（4）考查冠词。句意：今天，一大批崭新的商店为胡同增添了活力。此处为名词短语a large number of"大量的"，故填a。
（5）考查介词。句意：在繁忙的街道和传统的四合院里，涌现出许多时尚的商店。此处表示"在……里面"，所以用介词in，故填in。
（6）考查过去分词。句意：因此，胡同里的生活条件有了很大的改变，水和电的供应得到了改善。improve和它所修饰的词之间是被动关系，所以用过去分词作定语，故填improved。
（7）考查形容词。句意：它们不仅是传统的老年人居住的地方，也是时尚的年轻一代的地方。作定语修饰名词，所以用形容词，故填fashionable。
（8）考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意：这是一个完美的例子，北京是一个充满活力的城市，张开双臂欢迎变化和创新，同时自豪地保护自己的历史和魅力。描述现状，所以用一般现在时态，主语为that指代的先行词city，为名词单数，所以谓语用第三人称单数形式，故填welcomes。
（9）考查副词。句意：的确，这是一座过去与未来交汇的古都。修饰句子，所以用副词，句首单词首字母大写，故填Truly。
（10）考查定语从句。句意：的确，这是一座过去与未来交汇的古都。先行词为capital，在定语从句中缺少地点状语，所以用where引导，故填where。
【点评】做本题的关键是在理解短文的基础上，灵活运用所学的词汇和语法知识。因此，这就需要在平时的学习中，牢固掌握语言点及一些语法知识。
五．书面表达（共2小题）
8．（2024春 荔湾区期末）阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给的段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My brother Cody and I were in the back seat playing the guessing game I Spy when the rainstorm started.Fat drops of rain，like a million tiny water balloons，landed on our car，making it hard to keep the view clear.
"I spy something wet，"I said.
"Not fair，"said Cody，"Everything looks wet."
He was right.In the hour since we'd left Grandma's house to return to our house，the weather had gotten worse.The highway was slippery.
"I meant Mom's raincoat，"I told Cody.We continued our game.Cody's turn came."I spy something green，"Cody said.In the meantime，Dad expressed his concerns about the worsening visibility to Mom.The forecast had mentioned rain showers，but this seemed more severe.On either side of the highway，deep ditches （沟渠） were filling with water.As the car slipped on the wet pools，I noticed Dad's hands were tight on the steering wheel，his knuckles raised like bony mountains.
"Guess，"Cody insisted."The green highway sign？"I guessed，although it was hard to read it.Wet rain blocked most of the letters.I looked around."The green hat on the girl in the car behind us？""Yes!"Cody laughed."Your turn."
At that moment，our car swerved（打滑） toward a ditch.Dad managed to straighten the wheel and stay on the road.My heart pounded like I was in a race.Other cars had also swerved toward the ditch.If we went down，how would we ever get out？
Nobody talked.Cody and I stopped playing I Spy.Dad said we needed to get off and wait out this storm.Mom added，"Maybe we can find a place to have a rest."But we can hardly see the road，let alone an exit.
