B.Uncertain.C.Tolerant. D.Supportive.答案D解析推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段敘述,作者建議手寫信給親人,而不是發(fā)電子郵件。由此可推知,作者對于手寫持支持態(tài)度。故選D項。4.Whichofthefollowingisthebesttitleforthetext?A.EfficiencyesFirstB.MoreplexEssaysareNeededC.ThePenisMightierthantheKeyboardD.ScienceisthePrimaryProductiveForce.答案C解析主旨大意題。通讀全文,隨著電腦的普及,手寫雖然顯得過時,但依然益處多多。手寫有助于記憶和認(rèn)知發(fā)展,而且得到了諸多實驗驗證。因此,用鍵盤的學(xué)習(xí)效果遠(yuǎn)不如動手寫(ThePenisMightierthantheKeyboard)最能概括文章主旨。故選C項。BTheprintedbookisback.Recentstudieshaveshownthatstudentskeepinmindmoreinformationwhentheyreadahardcopybookparedtoreadingonadigitaldevice.Ilovethewaywenowjudgeprintedbooksusingthelanguageofthedigitalworld.Ebooksmayewitha“suiteofguidingtools”,butitturnsoutthatthebestguidingdevicesareyourfingers.Youcanusethemtolookthroughthepagesforwardsandbackwards.Tothink,allthistime,thosedeviceshavejustbeensittingthere,hangingattheendofyourarm.Fansofdigitalbooksmaypointoutthatereadershaveahandy“search”tool.Oldfashionedbooksalsohaveasearchfunction,inwhichyouturnbacktotheopeningchaptertoremindyourselfofthehero’sdescription.Theyevenhavea“bookmarksystem”,whichusesadevicecalleda“bookmark”.Fansoftheebookpointoutthatdigitaltextiseasytoannotate.Somedevicesevenfeaturealittleimageofapenciltoguidethereaderthroughtheprocess.Traditionalbookusershaveasimilarsystemcalleda“pencil”.Withit,favouredpassagescanbeunderlinedand,ifit’sahistorybook,mentscanbewritteninthemargin(頁邊),suchas“Notso,accordingtoTheDeclineandFalloftheRomanEmpire.”Thusnoted,suchbookscanbeleftaroundforotherstostudy,convincingfamilymembersofyourinsight.Theprintedbook,ofcourse,hasotheradvantages.Afullbookshelfisatonceasoundbaseandastoreofknowledge.Andanyproperlythumbedbookwillalwaysfallopenatthesexiestscene.Also,thesmellofoldbooksinasecondhandbookshopisinstantlyremindful.Yes,it’samixofmould(霉味)andoldpaper,buttomeitrepresentspossibility.Educationalfashionseandgo,somaybetheshiftbacktotraditionalbookswon’tlast.Butforthemoment,Ifindmyselfstandingatattention,extendingmytextbookbuiltshouldersandsalutingtheirgloriousreturn.Inthedebateaboutwhichisbetter,itseemsthatthehardcopybookishardertoknockoutthanoriginallythought.【語篇導(dǎo)讀】本文是一篇議論文。文章主要介紹了印刷書籍的回歸及其原因。5.Whydoestheauthorusethedigitallanguagetojudgeprintedbooks?A.Toexplainconcepts.B.Tohighlightdevelopmentoflanguages.C.Topleasereaders.D.Tomakebetterparisons.答案D解析細(xì)節(jié)理解題。關(guān)鍵詞定位在第二段。根據(jù)第二段第一句“Ilovethewaywenowjudgeprintedbooksusingthelanguageofthedigitalworld.”以及在文章各處的引用的電子術(shù)語“suiteofguidingtools”“search”“bookmarksystem”“pencil”這些傳統(tǒng)的紙質(zhì)書閱讀中的術(shù)語,可能在電子書閱讀時代被賦予了新的內(nèi)涵,但重點(diǎn)還是第二段中的“judgeprintedbooksusingthelanguageofthedigitalworld”可推知,作者喜歡使用這些電子時代的語言來評判紙質(zhì)書,更多是為了在兩者之間更好地作比較。通過下文看,作者也是一條一條來說明的。第二段就電子書籍便捷的導(dǎo)引功能,作者提到事實證明,最好的導(dǎo)引工具還是人的手指;第三段提到電子書籍便捷的搜索功能,作者指出紙質(zhì)書同樣具備此功能,而且還具備“書簽系統(tǒng)”;第三段提到電子書籍便于加注,作者提出紙質(zhì)書讀者用鉛筆加注,遇到喜歡的章節(jié),可以加下劃線,若是歷史書籍,還可以在頁邊處寫評論,以便與家人分享你的觀點(diǎn)。故選D項。6.Whatdoestheunderlinedword“annotate”inparagraph4mean?A.Search. B.Access.C.Addnotes. D.Getinformation.答案C解析詞義猜測題。根據(jù)第四段第一句“Fansoftheebookpointoutthatdigitaltextiseasytoannotate.”以及下面的舉例可知,用鉛筆可將喜歡的段落標(biāo)注下劃線,若是歷史書籍,可在頁邊題寫評論。由此可推斷,annotate一詞意為“加注”。故選C項。7.Whatattractsthereadersastoprintedbooks?A.Valueofsenses. B.Knowledgestorage.C.Bookshelves. D.Bookstores.答案A解析推理判斷題。本題定位在第五段。此段首句“Theprintedbook,ofcourse,hasotheradvantages.”表示除了上述紙質(zhì)書閱讀與電子閱讀的區(qū)別(或者說,與電子閱讀相比,紙質(zhì)書略勝一籌外),紙質(zhì)書還獨(dú)具一些優(yōu)勢:一個擺滿書的書架總是一個顯眼的地方,那里存貯了滿滿的知識,而且人們高贊的書籍總是打開,擺在最耀眼的位置;根據(jù)第五段第四、五句可知,印刷書的氣味是霉味和舊報紙的混合氣味,但于作者而言,這種氣味代表(獲取知識)的無限可能性。故選A項。8.Whichofthefollowingisthebesttitleforthetext?A.WhyEbooksAreConvenientB.WhythePrintedBookIsBackC.WhyEducationalFashionsChangeD.WhyDigitalReadingBeesPopular答案B解析主旨大意題。文章開宗明義,提出“Theprintedbookisback.”,印刷書籍重新興起,而且用研究結(jié)論來支撐。研究表明:學(xué)生通過閱讀紙質(zhì)書籍,比在電子閱讀中記住更多的信息。下文大篇幅就印刷書與電子書的優(yōu)缺點(diǎn)展開比較,尤其突出了使用印刷書閱讀的美好體驗。最后一段回歸主題,進(jìn)行總結(jié):盡管傳統(tǒng)書籍的回歸不一定持續(xù)多長時間,但此時此刻,“我”向這種回歸致敬。與文章開頭相照應(yīng)。因此,“印刷書為何回歸”是最佳標(biāo)題。故選B項。CThemonarchisperhapsthebestknownbutterflyinNorthAmerica.Everyfall,theymigratefromtheUSandCanadatoCaliforniaandMexicoforthewinter,breedingmultiplegenerationsalongtheway.Butnowthemonarchisintrouble.Duetohabitatloss,milkweed,theplantsthatthebutterflycaterpillarsfeedon,arefewerandfartherbetween,sothenumberofmonarchisdeclining.Inthe1990s,researchersattheUniversityofMinnesotadecidedtousecitizensciencetocollectlongtermdataonmonarchcaterpillarsandmilkweedhabitatinordertoprovideinformationthatdecisionmakerscanusetohelppreventthemonarch’sdecline.TheMonarchLarvaMonitoringProjecthasgrowntoinvolvevolunteersfromacrossNorthAmerica.Participantsvolunteertomonitoraparticularsite—oftentheirownbackyards.Throughonlineorinpersontraining,thevolunteerslearnhowtoidentifymilkweedaswellastheeggs,caterpillarsandpupae(蛹)ofmonarchbutterflies.Theyalsolearnaboutthemonarch’smigration.Eachyear,volunteersrecordwhenmilkweedplantsfirsteoutofthegroundandhowmanyarepresentatthesitetheyaremonitoring.Then,onaweeklybasis,theyrecordthenumberofeggsandcaterpillarstheysee.Thefinalstepisenteringthedataintoanonlinedatabase.Forcitizenscienceprojects,datavalidity(效度)canbeaconcern.Somesaythatnonscientistscan’tbetrustedtocollectreliabledata.Theprojectaddressessuchconcernsbyusingastandardizedrulesandrequiringrepeatedobservationsofthesamespeciesinthesameplace.TheMLMPalsoofferstraining,andalldataarecarefullycheckedbeforeusedforresearchpurposes.Anotherchallengeisgettingvolunteerstoreportzeroesorthelackofmonarchs.Asthemonarchpopulationdeclines,volunteersmaybediscouragedandnotwanttocollectdata.MLMPstaffworkwithvolunteerstohighlighttheimportanceofknowingwheremonarchsarenotfound.Theprojectissuccessfullymeetingitscorepurpose:tohelpscientistsbetterunderstandhowandwhymonarchpopulationsarechanging.Dataprovidedbycitizenscientistshaveformedthebasisforagrowingnumberofscientificpublications.【語篇導(dǎo)讀】本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹為有效阻止北美“魅力昆蟲”君王斑蝶數(shù)量減少,啟用了公民科學(xué)項目,旨在讓社會公眾參與重要科學(xué)研究,構(gòu)建老少咸宜的戶外科學(xué)課堂。9.Whyisthenumberofmonarchbutterfliesdeclining?A.Theyareinfluencedbythecoldweather.B.Therearefewermilkweedplantsalongtheway.C.Manybutterflycaterpillarslosetheirhabitats.D.Thedistanceoftheirmigrationbeeslonger.答案B解析細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段中的“Duetohabitatloss,milkweed,theplantsthatthebutterflycaterpillarsfeedon,arefewerandfartherbetween,sothenumberofmonarchisdeclining.”可知,由于棲息地的喪失,蝴蝶幼蟲賴以為食的草屬植物(植物乳草)的大面積減少,因此君王斑蝶數(shù)量減少。故選B項。10.Whatisparagraph3mainlyabout?A.Theapplicationofcitizenscienceintheproject.B.FindingsofMonarchLarvaMonitoringProject.C.Theestablishmentofthemonarchonlined
