B．Unclear.C．Favorable. D．Hopeful.答案A解析觀點(diǎn)態(tài)度題。根據(jù)最后一段中“Majorsocialmediaplatformsarenowlike‘a(chǎn)mallthatusedtobegood’...it’sjustaplacesellinganything.”可知，CoreyRichardson認(rèn)為如今社交媒體平臺(tái)變成了只賣(mài)東西的地方，由此可知，他對(duì)當(dāng)前社交媒體平臺(tái)的態(tài)度是消極的。故選A。4．Whichofthefollowingisasuitabletitleforthetext?A．WhereIsSocialMediaAdvertisingHeading?B．WhatIsShakinguptheOnlineAdvertisingMarket?C．WhyAreYouSeeingSoManyBadDigitalAdsNow?D．HowAreTargetedAdsImpactingYourPurchaseDecisions?答案C解析標(biāo)題歸納題。通讀全文，尤其根據(jù)第二段最后兩句、第三段前兩句和第四段第一句可知，本文主要講的是由于數(shù)字廣告市場(chǎng)的低迷和經(jīng)濟(jì)的不確定性，用戶(hù)開(kāi)始在社交媒體平臺(tái)上遇到越來(lái)越多低質(zhì)量的廣告，這些低質(zhì)量的廣告導(dǎo)致主要的社交媒體平臺(tái)逐漸變得沒(méi)有吸引力，只剩下了一些低價(jià)的廣告商。因此C選項(xiàng)“WhyAreYouSeeingSoManyBadDigitalAdsNow？”適合作文章標(biāo)題。故選C。BDavidBrownisknownastheworld’sfastestcompletelyblindrunner.HewasdiagnosedwithKawasakidiseaseat15monthsold，whichledhimtocompletelylosehissightbyage13.Brownsayshewaslivinginfearforanumberofyearsuntilhediscoveredhispassionforrunning.Afterwinninganessaycontest，heearnedtheticketfortheOlympicGamesinBeijingin2008.Itwasatthattimethatheknewhewantedtocompetehimself.Paralympicrunnerstrainandcompetealongsidesightedguides.AttheRioGamesin2016，BrownandhispartnerJeromeAveryran10.99inthemen’s100-meterdashtotakehomethegold.Brownmadehiswaytorunningfromanothersport.Heexplainsthathelosthislefteyewhenhewas3，andlostvisioninhisrighteyeovertime.Heplayedbasketballasakid，butwasincreasinglygettinginjuredbecausehecouldn’tseetheballcoming.“Itooktheopportunitytorunontheplayground，andrealizedIhadsomespeedthere，”hesays.HepursuedhispassionattheMissouriSchoolfortheBlind.Brownstartedattheschoolwhenhewas11，anditwastherethathereallystartedrunningtrack.HegottohisfirstParalympicgamesbywritingaboutrunning.Brownwasoneofthe25winnersofanessaycontestthatgottoattendtheeventinBeijing.Hesayshewroteabouthowheusedsportstoovercomeobstacles，notingthatashegrewuphestruggledwithdepression.It’simportanttobeinsyncwithyourrunningpartner.HisnewpartnerStewardsayshedoesn’thavetoslowdownwhenrunningwithBrown，becausehe’sfast.A10-or11-secondracedoesn’trequiremuchspeaking，Stewardsays.“It’salsoanhonor，”Brownsays.HenotesthatParalympicrunnerscan’tdowhattheydowithoutguideslikeSteward，whocouldtheoreticallyrunsolobutchoosenotto.Hecallsit“agreathonor”．語(yǔ)篇解讀這是一篇說(shuō)明文。文章主要講述了大衛(wèi)·布朗是世界上跑得最快的全盲運(yùn)動(dòng)員。他在15個(gè)月大時(shí)被診斷出患有川崎病，導(dǎo)致他在13歲時(shí)完全失明。文章講述了他的個(gè)人經(jīng)歷以及成就。5．WhatmadeDavidBrowndecidetotakepartinthecompetitionhimself?A．Winninganessaycontest.B．WinninganOlympicmedal.C．Attendingthe2008Olympics.D．AttendingtheMissouriSchool.答案C解析細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中的“Afterwinninganessaycontest，heearnedtheticketfortheOlympicGamesinBeijingin2008.Itwasatthattimethatheknewhewantedtocompetehimself.”可知，參加2008年奧運(yùn)會(huì)使大衛(wèi)·布朗決定親自參加比賽。故選C。6．WhatmadeDavidBrownchangefrombasketballtorunning?A．Hischangeinpersonalinterest.B．Thedeclineandlossofhisvision.C．ThediagnosiswithKawasakidisease.D．HisparticipationinhisfirstParalympicgames.答案B解析細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中的“Heexplainsthathelosthislefteyewhenhewas3...andB。7．WhatcanweknowaboutDavidBrown’sessay?A．Itwasinspiring.B．Itwasinteresting.C．Itwaspessimistic.D．Itwasdepressing.答案A解析細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段“HegottohisfirstParalympicgamesbywritingaboutrunning...notingthatashegrewuphestruggledwithdepression.”可知，大衛(wèi)·布朗的文章很鼓舞人心。故選A。8．WhichproverbbestdescribesDavidBrown’sstory?A．AllroadsleadtoRome.B．Everydoghasitsday.C．Wherethereisawill，thereisaway.D．Hopeforthebest，preparefortheworst.答案C解析推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段內(nèi)容并結(jié)合全文可知，大衛(wèi)·布朗在15個(gè)月大時(shí)被診斷出患有川崎病，導(dǎo)致他在13歲時(shí)完全失明，但憑借對(duì)跑步的熱情，克服了困難，贏得了奧運(yùn)會(huì)金牌。由此可推知，“有志者，事竟成”最能描述他的故事。故選C。Ⅱ.七選五(共5小題；每小題2.5分，滿(mǎn)分12.5分)Yourjokeneverworks？Or，beinghumorousisjusttoohardforyou？Someeventhinkthatbeingfunnyissomethingpeoplearebornwith，nottobelearned.1Tellfunnystories.Sometimes，thefunniestthingyoucandoistotellafunnystory.2However，youraudiencewilllikelyfindthatsomethingthatactuallyhappenedwillbealittlemorehumorous.Thinkofafewtruefunnythingsandtellthosestorieswhenitisproper.Maketheendfunny.Whenyoutrytosurpriseyourfriendswithafunnystoryorjoke，p
