27、not alon e:two-thirds of us experienee nomophobia（無手機(jī)恐懼癥）,the fear of being out of mobile phone con tact.That s accord ing to a study from 2012 which surveyed 1,000 people in the UK about theirrelati on ship with mobile pho nes.It says we check our mobile phones 34 times a day,and that 18-24 year-ol

28、ds,especiallygirls,are the most likely to suffer fear of being without their mobiles:77% of them say they areunable to be apart from their phones for more than a few minutes.Do you have no mophobia?You n ever tur n your phone off.?You freque ntly（頻繁地）check for texts,missed calls and emails.?You alwa

29、ys take your phone to the bathroom with you.?You n ever let the battery run out.It s funny to think that around 20 years ago the only people with mobile phones would bebus in essme n carry ing their large,plastic bricks .Of course,these days,mobile phones areeverywhere.A UN study from this year said

30、 there would be more mobile phones tha n peopleacross the world by the end of 2020.And when there are more phones than people in the world,maybeits time to ask who reallyis in charge（主管 ）?Are you in con trol of your phon e,or does your phone con trol you?So,what happened with my university friend?Wh

32、21.What does the passage talk about?A. The history of mobile phon es.B. The story of meeting an old university friend.C. The attraction of playing mobile phones.D. The terrible feeli ng of being without their mobiles.答案:D 解析:主旨大意題。作者去看望大學(xué)同學(xué)，無意中把手機(jī)落在了家里，讓他非?？謶?，由此 引出了文章討論的話題：nomophobia（無手機(jī)恐懼癥）。A、B、C 三

33、項(xiàng)是文章的部分 內(nèi)容，故 D 項(xiàng)正確。 22.The underlined phrase On edge in the third paragraph probably means _”.A.e nergeticB.n ervousC.brillia ntD.amazed答案:B解析:詞義猜測題。本句 I m sure I m not alone in feeli ng an xiouspn edgea nd worried whenI don t have my phone with me 告訴我們很多人手機(jī)不在身邊的時(shí)候，會非常緊張 和擔(dān)憂，短語 on edge 與 worried 是并列

34、關(guān)系，表示相近的含義。故 B 項(xiàng)正確。 23.Whats the authors attitude towards the using of mobiles?A.Worried.B.Positive.C.Neutral.D.Negative.答案:A解析:推理判斷題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第三段And whe n there are more pho nes tha n people in theworld,maybe it s time to ask who really is in charge 主管）?Are you in control of your pho ne,ordoes your pho

35、ne control you?可知作者很擔(dān)心當(dāng)手機(jī)的數(shù)量超過人類的數(shù)量時(shí)，究竟是誰來控制誰？說明作者對使用手機(jī)是非常擔(dān)心的。故A 項(xiàng)正確。J 24.According to the passage,who is most likely to be addictec 上癮的）to mobiles?A. A successful man ager.B. A 21-year-old girl.C. A 21-year-old boy.D. A Ion ely middle-aged pers on.答案:B 解析:推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章第五段 ft says we check our mobile p

36、ho nes 34 times aday,and that 18-24 year-olds,especially girls,are the most likely to suffer fear of being withouttheir mobiles:77% of them say they are unable to be apart from their phones for more than a fewminutes. ”可知 1824 歲的女孩子和手機(jī)的聯(lián)系最緊密 ,她們最可能患上 “無手 機(jī)恐懼癥”。所以 B 項(xiàng) A 21-year-old girl.符合題意。故 B 項(xiàng)正確。

37、BNo one knows for sure when advertising first started.It is possible that it grew out of thediscovery that some people did certain kinds of work better than others did them.That led to theconcept of specialisation,which means that people would specialise,or focus on doing onespecific job.Lets take a

38、 man well call Mr Fielder,for example.He did everything connected withfarming.He planted seeds,tended the fields,and harvested and sold his crops.At the sametime,he did many other jobs on the farm.However,he didnt make the bricks for his house,cuthis trees into boards,make the plow 犁(),or any of oth

39、er hun dreds of things a farmneeds.Instead,he got them from people who specialised in doing each of those things.Suppose there was another man we shall call Mr Plowright.Using what he knew aboutfarming and working with iron,Mr Plowright invented a plow that made farming easier.MrPlowright did not re

40、ally like farming himself and wanted to specialise in making really goodplows.Perhaps,he thought,other farmers will trade what they grow for one of his plows.How did Mr Plowright let people know what he was doing?Why,he advertised,ofcourse.First he opened a shop and then he put up a sign outside the

41、 shop to attractcustomers.That sign may have been no more than a plow carved into a piece of wood and asimple arrow pointing to the shop door.It was probably all the information people needed to findMr Plowright and his really good plows.Many historians believe that the first outdoor signs were used

42、 about five thousand yearsago.Even before most people could read,they understood such signs.Shopkeepers would carveinto stone,clay,or wood symbols for the products they had for sale.A medium,in advertising talk,is the way you communicate your message.You might saythat the first medium used in advert

43、ising was signs with symbols.The second medium wasaudio,or sound,although that term is not used exactly in the way we use it today.Originally,justthe human voice and maybe some kind of simple instrument,such as a bell,were used to getpeoples attention.A crier,i n the historical sen se,is not some on

44、e who weeps easil y.lt is some on e,probablya man, with a voice loud eno ugh to be heard over the other no ises of a city.ln ancientEgypt,shopkeepers might hire such a pers on to spread the n ews about their products.Ofte nthis earliest form of advertising involved a newly arrived ship loaded with g

45、oods.Perhaps thecrier described the goods,expla ined where they came from,a nd praised their quality.His jobwas,in other words ,not too differe nt from a TV or radio commercial in today s world.!.25.What probably led to the start of advertiseme nt?A. The discovery of iron.B. The specialisation of la

46、bour.C. The appeara nee of new jobs.D. The developme nt of farming tech niq ues.答案:B解析:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。答案定位在第一段No one knows for sure whe n advertis ing firststarted .It is possible that it grew out of the discovery that some people did certa in kinds of workbetter tha n others did them.That led to the con cep

47、t of specialisatio n,which means that peoplewould specialise,or focus on doing one specific job 可知，勞動(dòng)的專業(yè)化可能促進(jìn)了廣告的產(chǎn)生，故選 B 項(xiàng)26.To advertise his plows,Mr Plowright_A. praised his plows in publicB. placed a sig n outside the shopC. hung an arrow poin ti ng to the shopD. showed his products to the custom

48、ers答案:B解析:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。答案定位在第四段First he ope ned a shop and then he put up a sig noutside the shop to attract customers 可知 ,Plowright 為了宣傳他的犁，在商店外放了一個(gè) 牌子來吸引客戶，故選 B 項(xiàng)。j 27.The writer makes up the two stories of Mr Fielder and Mr Plowright in orderto_ .A. expla in the origi n of advertis ingB. predict the fut

49、ure of advertis ingC. expose problems in advertis ingD. provide suggesti ons for advertis ing答案:A解析:推理判斷題。 答案定位在倒數(shù)第三段 Many historia ns believe that the first outdoor sig nswere used about five thousa nd years ago.Eve n before most people could read,they understood such sig ns 可知，許多歷史學(xué)家相信 5,000 年以前，最

50、初的戶外標(biāo)示已被使用。由此可以推斷出作者講這兩個(gè)故事是為了說明廣告的起源，故選 A 項(xiàng)。J 28.In an cie nt Egypt,a crier was probably some one who_ .A. ow ned a shipB. had the loudest voiceC. ran a shop sell ing goods to farmersD. functioned like today s TV or radio commercial答案:D解析:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。答案定位在最后一段His job was,in other words, not too differe nt

51、 froma TV or radio commercial in today s world.可知，在古埃及,一個(gè)叫賣的小販的功能類似 于今天的電視或廣播中的商業(yè)廣告，故選 D 項(xiàng)。During my travels through the mountains of Greece I was only ever scared once.lt wasdusk and as I walked alone I came across six large wolves that were feedi ng on the body of adead ani mal.l had heard many st

52、ories about wolves as a child and it was this ani mal that Ifeared more tha n any other.The wolves before me were huge,at least 6 feet l ong and coveredwith thick grey fur.As I approached,the wolves left the blood-covered snow that surro un ded the body andstarted walki ng towards me, one after ano

53、ther.They stopped about 20 meters from me andstared.The lead wolf raised his head into the air and took in a deep breath,as if he was smelli ngmy prese nce.The ani mals looked both beautiful and terrify in g,but I knew I could not showthem my fear.As I drew nearer,the lead wolf raised its head once

54、more but this time let out aloud howl （長嚎） .The awful cry rang out across the silent valley.I had never heard a more frightening soundwas almost certa in it sig naled death.Every mome nt I expected to see the pack das 猛沖）at me.I knew my only hope was toprete nd I had no fear.I walked past the line o

55、f wolves,like a gen eral moving among hissoldiers.They howled out aga in .But whe n they saw that their war-cry did not cause me to change my direct ion or make me run they feared to come after me,a nd they let me pass andreturned to the dead an imal.Had I turned back or tried to run away whe n they

56、 marched out to meet me I was certa inthe whole pack would have attacked me in a mome nt.But my show of false courage in timidated（威脅）them and kept them back.j 29.Why didn t the wolves attack the man?A. They were no Ion ger hungry whe n they saw him.B. The man was already known to the wolves.C. They

57、 were too far away to catch the man.D. The man showed no fear as he passed them by.答案:D解析:根據(jù)第三段，說明狼沒有向作者發(fā)動(dòng)進(jìn)攻是被他那種無所畏懼的神情給嚇著了，不敢追趕。30.In which order are the follow ing eve nts men ti on ed?a.The wolves walked towards the man.b.The man thought he was about to die.c.The wolves retur ned to the dead ani

58、 mal.d.The man had heard stories about wolves.e.The man walked past the wolves.f.The lead wolf took a deep breath.A.a,d,f,b,c,e B.d,a,f,b,e,cC.a,f,d,e,b,c D.d,f,a,b,c,e答案:B 解析:根據(jù)全篇故事情節(jié)的描述可知，作者是在小時(shí)候聽說了有關(guān)狼的故事，這次卻親身遇到了狼，通過裝出來的勇氣結(jié)果化險(xiǎn)為夷。根據(jù)選項(xiàng)中的排序，只有選項(xiàng) B 符合故事 發(fā)生的先后順序。31. What is the autho s in ten ti on in

59、 writi ng this story?A.To show that mountains can be dan gerous places.B.To discuss the habits of mountain wolves.C.To make people aware of the dan ger of wolves.D.To stress the n eed for courage whe n in dan ger.答案:D 解析:根據(jù)全文敘述，尤其是最后一段可知作者寫這篇文章是告訴讀者在遇到危險(xiǎn)時(shí)一定要表現(xiàn)出勇氣。-32.Which is the best title for this

60、 story?A.In the Face of FearB.My Greek AdventureC.My Mountain TravelsD.A Man without Fear答案:A解析 :作者在這篇文章中通過對自身經(jīng)歷的描述 ,告訴讀者在遇到危險(xiǎn)或恐懼時(shí)一定要有 勇氣 ,因此最佳題目應(yīng)是 “當(dāng)面對恐懼時(shí) ”。D（2015 課標(biāo)全國卷n）ChooseYour One-Day Tours!Tour A Bath & Stonehengeincluding entrance fees to the ancient Roman bathrooms andSto nehe ng 37 until
