In one of my classes today we discussed the question of how our lives would be without a phone and I actually felt quite sad to hear how some kids these days cannot survive without their mobiles. PersonallyI think nowadays we are controlled by our technology and pressurised(加压的)to keep up.

So let's see some of the points that came up in the debate and see if our generation really is addicted to electronic connections rather than true communication.

It is true that everything works at a fast pace these daysdue to the quick access we have to pretty much anything and anyone. For exampleyou can contact someone who lives on the other side of the world within seconds. This is great if you think about bow connected we can stay to the people who are far away from ushoweveron the contrarycan we be too connected to the people who are close to us? An argument arose(出现)about the fact that it is easier to message someone from your sofa than to meet them in person and talk. On one handit is easier and nice sometimes to carelessly chat to a friend this wayHoweverit is also lazier and rude to prefer to talk to someone on your phone rather than meeting upif you are able toin my opinion. Social skills are important to have and if you are not going to put effort into real-life communicationthen you are not going to progress in this ability. Another point was that phones are very handy to look up something that you are wondering about. For exampleif you don't know a word in another language,you can quickly and simply use a translator to help you out. This can be very helpful in many situationsbut it can also make a person dependent on the internet to help with anything. This factor slightly takes away the diversity(多样性)“learning a language and speaking with peopleas you are able to access everything you need by the web.

All in allthis question is very interesting to consider for oneself as we become day by day more dependent on technology. We should just realize how much we really need to be connected by our phones while considering the benefits and damage it can cause us.

1What can we infer from the first paragraph?

2What does the underlined phrase "is addicted to”in Paragraph 2 mean?

【解析】

文章大意:文章主要描述现代人过度依赖技术的情况,与此同时,依赖技术也有一定好处,最后作者提出,我们应该意识到真正需要通过手机连接的程度,同时考虑到它可能给我们带来的好处和损害。

1推测判断题。根据第一段第二、三、四行I actually felt quite sad to hear how some kids these days cannot survive without their mobiles. PersonallyI think nowadays we are controlled by our technology and pressurised(加压的)to keep up.“我真的很难过,听说现在有些孩子没有孩子是活不下去的。就我个人而言,我认为现在我们被我们的技术所控制,并被迫跟上时代的步伐。”以及图片所有人都在看手机,可知第一段不是争论,而是作者想要说沟通交流太少了,故答案选D

2词义猜测题。根据第二段第一行So let's see some of the points that came up in the debateand see if our generation really is addicted to electronic connections rather than true communication.“所以让我们看看辩论中出现的一些观点,看看我们这一代人是否真的沉迷于电子连接而不是真正的交流。”本句主语our generation,宾语是电子连接还是真正的交流,可知划线词组是“过度依赖,沉溺于”,故答案选A

3主旨大意题,根据文章第四段第二、三行We should just realize how much we really need to be connected by our phones while considering the benefits and damage it can cause us“我们应该意识到我们真正需要通过手机连接的程度,同时考虑到它可能给我们带来的好处和损害”,可知说的是电子连接的必要性,故答案选D

4主旨大意题,根据文章最后一段第一、二行All in allthis question is very interesting to consider for oneself as we become day by day more dependent on technology.“总而言之,当我们越来越依赖于技术时,这个问题是非常有趣的。”可知主要讲的是我们是否过度依赖技术,故答案选D
