For people who have become accustomed to digital communication，social media is a wonderful place，as it can act as the glue that links us to friends and family.It can also be a gentle reminder of life’s simple preciousness.
语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了父母在社交媒体上过度分享孩子照片的现象，以及作者对此的担忧。
Ⅲ.主题语篇阅读
That’s why it makes perfect sense that，according to some estimates，more than 50% of parents in Britain share their kids’ photos at least once a month.A 2023 report found that parents share about 71 photos and 29 videos of their child every year on social media.On average，by the time the child is 13，parents have posted 1,300 photos and videos of him or her on social media.
I used to fall into that category.My son was born in 2015，and as a new mother，I was eager to keep updating my wonderful new life and kept posting photos of him online.But after a few years of regular sharing，I came across a campaign by the Child Rescue Coalition that pushed me to rethink seriously，and I started to question how much of my son’s life should be documented and available to all.Its Kids for Privacy campaign was a reminder of the risks of exposing our children’s most private moments on social media.
For the first time，I found myself asking：Who could they be reaching？Will my son be happy with me sharing photos of him as he grows up？Was it an offence(冒犯) to his privacy for me to do so，even if he didn’t have that realization then？By putting his photos online，I was automatically creating a chain of data attached to him.As technology develops，who knows how his personal data will be used
As a 90s kid whose parents used a point-and-shoot camera，my precious baby photos have been securely stored among a collection of physical photo albums somewhere in my parents’ home.Everything was more private back then，and I want it to be the same for my son.So I have removed all photos of my son from social media.Instead，I now share exciting moments with close friends and family directly via private message.It’s more personal this way.And it’s safer.Being a parent means being proud，but it also means protecting our children from unnecessary risks.Exposing them to unknown audiences isn’t worth the likes or the attention.
推理判断题。根据第二段首句“That’s why it makes perfect sense that，according to some estimates，more than 50% of parents in Britain share their kids’ photos at least once a month.”以及之后关于分享孩子的照片和视频的次数的统计数据可知，第二段用数据陈述了父母喜欢在网上更新他们孩子的照片的现象，故选D。
解析
1.What phenomenon is stated with the data in paragraph 2
A.Children in Britain lead a colorful life.
B.Parents have deep love for their children.
C.People in Britain are used to digital communication.
D.Parents enjoy updating their children’s photos online.
√
2.What was the author concerned about after reflecting on her photo sharing
A.Whether she was making her friends annoyed.
B.Whether she was threatening her son’s privacy.
C.Whether her son liked the photos posted online.
D.Whether her son knew it was disturbing his privacy.
推理判断题。根据第三段中“Its Kids for Privacy campaign was a reminder of the risks of exposing our children’s most private moments on social media.”可知，作者担心她是否威胁到了她儿子的隐私，故选B。
解析
√
3.Which can best describe the author as a mother
A.Caring and humorous.
B.Sensible and responsible.
C.Flexible and adaptable.
D.Optimistic and determined.
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“So I have removed all photos of my son from social media.”及“Being a parent means being proud，but it also means protecting our children from unnecessary risks.”可知，作者作为母亲是明智的和负责任的，故选B。
解析
√
4.What is the most suitable title for the text
A.Parental Oversharing：the Impact on Child Privacy
B.Generation Gap：Different Methods of Storing Photos
C.Privacy Crisis：Dilemmas over Personal Information Safety
D.Parents’ Dilemma：the Pros and Cons of Sharing Photos Online
标题归纳题。根据全文特别是第二、三段内容可知，本文主要讲述父母在社交媒体上过度分享孩子照片的现象，及作者对此的担忧，因此推断A项“父母过度分享：对儿童隐私的影响”为最佳标题。故选A。
解析

(2025·江苏常州高二上期末)
For decades，virtual reality(VR) has been viewed as the future of filmmaking，able to offer experiences more immersive than traditional cinema and television.In an essay written in 1955，titled The Cinema of the Future，the cinematographer Morton Heilig predicted that filmmaking would advance to the point where it can “reveal the new scientific world to man in the full sensual vividness and dynamic energy of his awareness”.
语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要探讨了虚拟现实(VR)被视为电影制作未来的原因，还介绍了专家对未来电影特点的看法，以及VR技术对电影制作带来的影响。
According to VR expert and artist Chris Milk，films of the future will offer tailored immersive experiences that will be able to tell a story in real time，which is just for you and uniquely satisfies you and what your likes and dislikes are.He prefers terms like “story living” to the standard one such as “story telling”.He believes cinematic experiences will develop to “feel as natural and as real as a day in your life，but have the amazing characteristics of the kind of exciting stories that we are used to being told”.
The influential journalist and entrepreneur Nonny de la Pena says，“The first word comes to mind when I think about the future of the medium is ‘volumetric(立体的)’.In the future，flat media will still be there with us，just like the radio will still be with us.But there’s no way that filmmaking is going to stay flat.”
With VR technology advancing at a rapid rate，possibilities are endless.Describing VR as dangerous because filmmakers operating in this space have less control than they do in non-interactive experiences，Steven Spielberg said that the virtual world would give viewers a lot of freedom not to take directions from the storytellers but make their own choices.However，many would regard this kind of future，where viewers will have the ability to shape the stories they experience，as positive rather than negative.Viewers being able to make their own choices concurs with Heilig’s prediction that the cinema of the future will no longer be a visual art，but an art of awareness.
5.Why is VR considered the future of filmmaking
A.It is more vivid and dynamic.
B.It is related to the scientific world.
C.It is equipped with advanced technology.
D.It provides real feelings for the audience.
细节理解题。根据第一段中“For decades，virtual reality(VR) has been viewed as the future of filmmaking，able to offer experiences more immersive than traditional cinema and television.”和第二段中“...feel as natural and as real as a day in your life”可知，虚拟现实被认为是电影制作的未来是因为它能为观众提供更真实的感受，让观众有沉浸式体验。故选D项。
解析
√
6.What will characterize future films according to Chris Milk
A.They will get more personal.
B.They will focus on telling stories.
C.They will become more volumetric.
D.They will be a virtual copy of the world.
细节理解题。根据第二段第一句“According to VR expert and artist Chris Milk，films of the future will offer tailored immersive experiences that will be able to tell a story in real time，which is just for you and uniquely satisfies you and what your likes and dislikes are.”可知，未来电影的特点是更加个性化。故选A项。
解析
√
7.What does the underlined word “concurs” probably mean in the last paragraph
A.Deals. B.Compares.
C.Agrees. D.Communicates.
词义猜测题。根据画线词上文“many would regard this kind of future...
as positive”以及“Viewers being able to make their own choices”可知，可以自己做出选择的观众会同意海利格的预测。所以concur意为“同意，赞同”，与agree同义。故选C项。
解析
√
8.Which is the most suitable title for the text
A.Who Invented VR Technology
B.What Will Films Be Like in the Future
C.How Can VR Be Used in Future Films
D.Why Does VR Have an Impact on Filmmaking
标题归纳题。根据第一段中“For decades virtual reality(VR) has been viewed as the future of filmmaking，able to offer experiences more immersive than traditional cinema and television.”，第二段中“According to VR expert and artist Chris Milk，films of the future will offer tailored immersive experiences...”和第三段中Nonny de la Pena所说的话等内容可知，文章围绕未来电影的样子展开。故B项“未来的电影将会是什么样？”最适合作为文章标题。故选B项。
解析
√
1.be viewed as被视为
2.immerse v.使沉浸于→immersive adj.沉浸式的
3.advance to推进到……；发展到……
4.tailor n.裁缝 v.定制→tailored adj.定做的；特制的
5.flat media平面媒体
词汇积累
1.In an essay written in 1955，titled The Cinema of the Future，the cinematographer Morton Heilig predicted that filmmaking would advance to the point where it can “reveal the new scientific world to man in the full sensual vividness and dynamic energy of his awareness”.
分析：titled The Cinema of the Future为过去分词作后置定语，修饰前面的名词essay。that引导宾语从句。where引导定语从句，先行词为point，where在从句中作地点状语。
翻译：在1955年写的一篇题为《未来的电影》的文章中，电影摄影师莫顿·海利格预言，电影制作将会发展到这样一个阶段，它可以“以人类意识的全部感官生动和动态能量向人类揭示新的科学世界”。
句式分析
2.According to VR expert and artist Chris Milk，films of the future will offer tailored immersive experiences that will be able to tell a story in real time，which is just for you and uniquely satisfies you and what your likes and dislikes are.
分析：that引导定语从句，先行词为experiences，that在从句中作主语。which引导非限制性定语从句，修饰a story。what引导宾语从句，作动词satisfy的宾语，what在从句中作表语。
翻译：根据虚拟现实专家和艺术家克里斯·米尔克的说法，未来的电影将提供量身定制的沉浸式体验，能够实时讲述一个只为你而设的故事，满足你的喜好和厌恶。

√
根据上文“Studies from the University of Montreal discovered that playing ‘shooter’ games can harm the hippocampus area of the brain，killing brain cells.”及下文“For example，increasing the chances of schizophrenia，Alzheimer’s Disease and depression.”可知，上文提到研究发现射击游戏会损害大脑的海马体、杀死脑细胞，下文给出具体的例子：增加患精神分裂症、阿尔茨海默病和抑郁症的可能性，故本句属于过渡句，E项“这个大脑部分的损伤也会产生影响”符合语境，选项中this part指代上文的hippocampus area，故选E。
解析

根据上文“These studies show that playing violent games results in instant changes to behavior.”可知，暴力游戏会带来行为上的立即改变，结合下文“However，people do not know that addiction to playing games can also cause it(人们却不知道沉迷游戏也会造成这样的后果).”可知，F项“很多人都知道攻击性行为可能是由许多心理健康问题引起的”承上启下，符合语境，故选F。
解析

B.Video games harm children physically.
C.Kids should be connected with activities outside.

√
根据本段下文“经常玩电子游戏会恶化个人卫生，还会因眼睛疲劳而导致偏头痛。研究表明，电子游戏成瘾还与抑郁和药物滥用有关，这些都是孩子们在这么小的年龄不应该面对的问题”可知，本段的主旨是电子游戏对孩子身体所造成的伤害。故B项“电子游戏伤害孩子的身体”可作为本段中心句，符合语境，故选B。

√
上文“It’s unhealthy for children to stay indoors looking at a screen all day long.”提到孩子们整天待在室内看屏幕是不健康的，可知作者认为孩子们要多去户外活动。故C项“孩子们应该和户外活动建立联系”承接上文，符合语境，故选C。

Ⅴ.语法填空
In the 1. (absent) of a professional setting and a fill light，a mobile phone and a mobile phone holder are 2. Du Zhanping can count on for his livestreaming efforts.
absence
1.考查名词。根据空前的the和句意可知，此处使用名词absence，in the absence of“在缺乏……的情况下”为固定短语。故填absence。
2.考查表语从句。分析句子结构可知，本空引导表语从句，从句缺少宾语，指物，应用连接代词what引导。故填what。
解析
what
Yet it was through this basic set-up that the 46-year-old man
3. (manage) to get a traditional felt-making(毛毡制作) skill
4. (know) to viewers across the country.
managed
3.考查动词时态。分析句子结构可知，本句为强调句，强调状语through this basic set-up，本空为句子谓语，根据语境和It was可知事情发生在过去，故时态用一般过去时。故填managed。
4.考查非谓语动词。本句谓语动词为managed，此处为非谓语动词，且a traditional felt-making(毛毡制作) skill与know为逻辑上的被动关系，应用过去分词，作宾补。故填known。
解析
known
Felt-making skill is on the regional intangible cultural heritage list.
5. the improvement of people’s living standards over time，however，felt has been used less and less.
With

Normally
“In the past few months，my number of felt orders 8.____________
(double) thanks to social media，with those from online platforms
9. (account) for about 70 percent of the total，” he said.
has doubled
8.考查动词时态和主谓一致。根据In the past few months可知，句子时态应用现在完成时，又因主语number是第三人称单数，所以助动词用has。故填has doubled。
9.考查非谓语动词。根据空前的with可知，此处为with复合结构，即：with＋宾语＋宾补，且those from online platforms与account for为逻辑上的主动关系，所以该空用现在分词形式，作宾补。故填accounting。
解析
accounting

For people who have become accustomed to digital communication，social media is a wonderful place，as it can act as the glue that links us to friends and family.It can also be a gentle reminder of life’s simple preciousness.
That’s why it makes perfect sense that，according to some estimates，more than 50% of parents in Britain share their kids’ photos at least once a month.A 2023 report found that parents share about 71 photos and 29 videos of their child every year on social media.On average，by the time the child is 13，parents have posted 1,300 photos and videos of him or her on social media.
I used to fall into that category.My son was born in 2015，and as a new mother，I was eager to keep updating my wonderful new life and kept posting photos of him online.But after a few years of regular sharing，I came across a campaign by the Child Rescue Coalition that pushed me to rethink seriously，and I started to question how much of my son’s life should be documented and available to all.Its Kids for Privacy campaign was a reminder of the risks of exposing our children’s most private moments on social media.
For the first time，I found myself asking：Who could they be reaching？Will my son be happy with me sharing photos of him as he grows up？Was it an offence(冒犯) to his privacy for me to do so，even if he didn’t have that realization then？By putting his photos online，I was automatically creating a chain of data attached to him.As technology develops，who knows how his personal data will be used
As a 90s kid whose parents used a point-and-shoot camera，my precious baby photos have been securely stored among a collection of physical photo albums somewhere in my parents’ home.Everything was more private back then，and I want it to be the same for my son.So I have removed all photos of my son from social media.Instead，I now share exciting moments with close friends and family directly via private message.It’s more personal this way.And it’s safer.Being a parent means being proud，but it also means protecting our children from unnecessary risks.Exposing them to unknown audiences isn’t worth the likes or the attention.
语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了父母在社交媒体上过度分享孩子照片的现象，以及作者对此的担忧。

(2025·江苏常州高二上期末)
For decades，virtual reality(VR) has been viewed as the future of filmmaking，able to offer experiences more immersive than traditional cinema and television.In an essay written in 1955，titled The Cinema of the Future，the cinematographer Morton Heilig predicted that filmmaking would advance to the point where it can “reveal the new scientific world to man in the full sensual vividness and dynamic energy of his awareness”．
According to VR expert and artist Chris Milk，films of the future will offer tailored immersive experiences that will be able to tell a story in real time，which is just for you and uniquely satisfies you and what your likes and dislikes are.He prefers terms like “story living” to the standard one such as “story telling”．He believes cinematic experiences will develop to “feel as natural and as real as a day in your life，but have the amazing characteristics of the kind of exciting stories that we are used to being told”．
The influential journalist and entrepreneur Nonny de la Pena says，“The first word comes to mind when I think about the future of the medium is ‘volumetric(立体的)’．In the future，flat media will still be there with us，just like the radio will still be with us.But there’s no way that filmmaking is going to stay flat.”
With VR technology advancing at a rapid rate，possibilities are endless.Describing VR as dangerous because filmmakers operating in this space have less control than they do in non-interactive experiences，Steven Spielberg said that the virtual world would give viewers a lot of freedom not to take directions from the storytellers but make their own choices.However，many would regard this kind of future，where viewers will have the ability to shape the stories they experience，as positive rather than negative.Viewers being able to make their own choices concurs with Heilig’s prediction that the cinema of the future will no longer be a visual art，but an art of awareness.

语篇解读　这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍了杜占平利用直播成功地让全国观众都知道传统毛毡制作技能的故事。
1．答案　absence
解析　考查名词。根据空前的the和句意可知，此处使用名词absence，in the absence of“在缺乏……的情况下”为固定短语。故填absence。
2．答案　what
解析　考查表语从句。分析句子结构可知，本空引导表语从句，从句缺少宾语，指物，应用连接代词what引导。故填what。
3．答案　managed
解析　考查动词时态。分析句子结构可知，本句为强调句，强调状语through this basic set-up，本空为句子谓语，根据语境和It was可知事情发生在过去，故时态用一般过去时。故填managed。
4．答案　known

9．答案　accounting
解析　考查非谓语动词。根据空前的with可知，此处为with复合结构，即：with＋宾语＋宾补，且those from online platforms与account for为逻辑上的主动关系，所以该空用现在分词形式，作宾补。故填accounting。
10．答案　and
解析　考查连词。结合语境可知，introduce them to more people while preserving traditional techniques与expand their markets to boost both the confidence and income of inheritors为并列关系，所以用并列连词and连接。故填and。
