作者是学校辩论队的一员,最近他们辩论队就该不该取消禁止学生在课堂上使用手机这个禁令展开了一个辩论。短文中作者描述了他们辩论的过程以及这次辩论的结果。
【1】句意:最近,我们就一个重要的话题进行了辩论。
考查副词辨析及语境。Luckily幸运的是;Actually事实上,实际上;Recently最近;Suddenly突然。根据文意可知,短文中作者介绍的是他最近参加的一次辩论,故应选C。
【2】句意:然而,对于这个问题他们有不同的意见。
考查副词辨析及语境。Therefore因此;However然而;What’s more而且;In other words换句话说。根据句意空后they had different opinions与上文是转折的关系,故应选B。
【3】句意:另一方是支持继续这个禁令。
考查动词辨析及语境。cancelling取消;introducing介绍;removing移除,去除;continuing继续。根据上文The debate team was divided into two sides. I was on the side for changing the rules.可知,辩论是正反两方,作者所在的一方是支持改变这一禁令,那么另一方则是支持不改变,即继续使用这个禁令。故应选D。
【4】句意:首先,学生们可以使用他们的手机来学习。
考查名词辨析及语境。communication交流;education教育;entertainment娱乐;emergency紧急情况。根据下文Students can do research, look up new words in the dictionaries, and use a calculator with their phones.可知,作者认为学生们可以使用手机做研究、在字典中查单词、使用计算器,这些都是为了学习,故应选B。
【5】句意:如果有学生在课堂上用手机做其他用途,它就可以被没收。
考查动词短语辨析及语境。picked up拾起,捡起;turned on打开;taken away拿走,带走;called back回电话。根据上文及第4小题的解释可知,作者认为学生们可以用手机来学习,但是如果用做了其他用途,那么手机就要被老师没收了。故应选C。
【6】句意:最后,改变这个规则会使老师的工作更轻松。
考查形容词辨析及语境。easier更容易,更轻松;safer更安全;more popular更受欢迎;more independent更独立。根据下文They wouldn’t have to collect and return phones every day. They also wouldn’t need to wait for students to take out and put away various school supplies.可知,取消了这个禁令,老师们就不用每天收手机、还手机,也不需要等学生取出手机和收拾各种学校用品。也就是减轻了老师的负担,让老师更加轻松了,故应选A。
这篇短文中作者给我们介绍了他最近参加的一次辩论赛。短文主题明确,内容贴近学生们的实际生活,比较容易理解。题型是完形填空,考查学生们在具体语境中运用语言的能力,综合性较强。做题时,应先通读短文,了解文章大意;然后根据上下文语境做题,先易后难,注意空前后的搭配,并仔细辨析选项中每个单词的意思和用法;最后将答案代入原文,再读一遍,检查是否正确。例如第3小题,考查动词辨析及语境。cancelling取消;introducing介绍;removing移除,去除;continuing继续。根据上文The debate team was divided into two sides. I was on the side for changing the rules.可知,辩论是正反两方,作者所在的一方是支持改变这一禁令,那么另一方则是支持不改变,即继续使用这个禁令。故应选D。再如第6小题,考查形容词辨析及语境。easier更容易,更轻松;safer更安全;more popular更受欢迎;more independent更独立。根据下文They wouldn’t have to collect and return phones every day. They also wouldn’t need to wait for students to take out and put away various school supplies.可知,取消了这个禁令,老师们就不用每天收手机、还手机,也不需要等学生取出手机和收拾各种学校用品。也就是减轻了老师的负担,让老师更加轻松了,故应选A。
