【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。一项研究表明,孩子沉迷于电脑游戏会影响他们的在校表现。
【1】 考查时态和主谓一致。优秀的电脑技能在这个数字化的时代很吃香。由句中的"in today’s digital age"可知,此处应用一般现在时,且句子的主语为Good computer skills,故谓语动词用复数。
【2】 考查冠词。此处泛指"一项新的研究",故用不定冠词a。
【3】 考查非谓语动词。一项新的研究告诫道,花太多时间玩电脑游戏会影响孩子的在校表现。time与spend之间为逻辑上的被动关系,故此处用过去分词作后置定语。
【4】 考查时态。根据上文的"involved""and"可知此处需用一般过去时。
【5】 考查比较级。玩电脑游戏少于一周一次的学生比一天玩两次或者更多次的学生的学习成绩更好。由后文的关键词"than"可知,此处应填good的比较级形式。
【6】 考查连词。我想那更多的是因为社交媒体是每个孩子生活中的一部分。分析句子结构可知,空处在此引导表语从句,且在此表示原因,故用because。
【7】 考查词性转换。家长越来越多地抱怨很难把孩子从电脑游戏中拉出来。此处应用副词修饰动词,故填increasingly"越来越多地,渐增地"。
【8】 考查定语从句。一些家长甚至为自己的孩子寻求帮助,他们说孩子迷上了电脑游戏。分析句子结构可知,空处引导定语从句,先行词是teenagers,关系词在从句中作主语,故可用who或that。
【9】 考查词性转换。这项研究没有调查上瘾的情况。由上文的"look into"可知,此处应用addict的名词形式addiction"沉迷,上瘾"。
【10】 考查非谓语动词。研究表明,电脑游戏会让孩子熬夜,这使得他们第二天感到疲惫,而且难以集中注意力学习。make与其逻辑主语为主谓关系,故此处需用现在分词形式作状语,表示自然而然的结果。

说明文 | 密码的设置和破解的方法 | 330 | ★★★★☆ | 6分钟 |
(2016·新课标全国卷I) Secret codes (密码)keep messages private. Banks, companies, and government agencies use secret codes in doing business, especially when information is sent by computer.
People have used secret codes for thousands of years. 1 Code breaking never lags(落后) far behind code making. The science of creating and reading coded messages is called cryptography.
There are three main types of cryptography. 2 For example, the first letters of"My elephant eats too many eels"spell out the hidden message"Meet me."
3 You might represent each letter with a number, for example. Let’s number the letters of the alphabet, in order, from 1 to 26. If we substitute a number for each letter, the message"Meet me"would read"135 520 135."
A code uses symbols to replace words, phrases, or sentences. To read the message of a real code, you must have a code book. 4 For example, "bridge"might stand for"meet"and"out" might stand for"me."The message"Bridge out"would actually mean"Meet me." 5 However, it is also hard to keep a code book secret for long. So codes must be changed frequently.
A. It is very hard to break a code without the code book.
B. In any language, some letters are used more than others.
C. Only people who know the keyword can read the message.
D. As long as there have been codes, people have tried to break them.
E. You can hide a message by having the first letters of each word spell it out.
F. With a code book, you might write down words that would stand for other words.
G. nother way to hide a message is to use symbols to stand for specific letters of the alphabet.

记叙文 | 救助猫头鹰 | 296 | ★★★☆☆ | 4分钟 |
(2017·新课标全国卷I)I work with Volunteers for Wildlife, a rescue and education organization at Bailey Arboretum in Locust Valley. Trying to help injured, displaced or sick creatures can be heartbreaking; survival is never certain. However, when it works, it is simply beautiful.
I got a rescue call from a woman in Muttontown. She had found a young owl(猫头鹰) on the ground. When I arrived, I saw a 2-to 3-week-old owl. It had already been placed in a carrier for safety.
I examined the chick(雏鸟) and it seemed fine. If I could locate the nest, I might have been able to put it back, but no luck. My next work was to construct a nest and anchor it in a tree.
The homeowner was very helpful. A wire basket was found. I put some pine branches into the basket to make this nest safe and comfortable. I placed the chick in the nest, and it quickly calmed down.
Now all that was needed were the parents, but they were absent. I gave the homeowner a recording of the hunger screams of owl chicks. These advertise the presence of chicks to adults; they might also encourage our chick to start calling as well. I gave the owner as much information as possible and headed home to see what news the night might bring.
A nervous night to be sure, but sometimes the spirits of nature smile on us all! The homeowner called to say that the parents had responded to the recordings. I drove over and saw the chick in the nest looking healthy and active. And it was accompanied in the nest by the greatest sight of all — LUNCH! The parents had done their duty and would probably continue to do so.
【1】What is unavoidable in the author’s rescue work according to paragraph 1?
A. Efforts made in vain.
B. Getting injured in his work.
C. Feeling uncertain about his future.
D. Creatures forced out of their homes.
【2】Why was the author called to Muttontown?
A. To rescue a woman.
B. To take care of a woman.
C. To look at a baby owl.
D. To cure a young owl.
【3】 What made the chick calm down?
A. A new nest. B. Some food.
C. A recording. D. Its parents.
【4】How would the author feel about the outcome of the event?
A. It’s unexpected. B. It’s beautiful.
C. It’s humorous. D. It’s discouraging.
【题目】
Many Americans concerned about air pollution are demanding cleaner and cheaper supplies of energy. The demand has resulted in increased research about ethanol fuel. Ethanol is an alcohol that can be mixed with gas. It burns up most of the pollutants in gas. It replaced some of the chemicals that are known to cause cancer.
Some experts say that in the future ethanol will replace some of the oil imported into America. Today ethanol is less than one percent of the total American fuel supply. The head of the National Corn Growers Association, Kieve Hars, says ethanol will provide twenty five percent of the fuel supply by 2010. The organization is involved in the production of ethanol because it can be made from corn.
One company in American Midwest says it is starting to produce ethanol because of demands from people and from the government. The Congress approved the Clean Air Act in 1990. The company says this means the market for ethanol will expand. The company is a major producer of corn starch (淀粉) that can be used to make ethanol.
At Texas University, Professor Mark Holzapple produces ethanol from materials found in solid waste. He has developed a way to turn materials like paper into simple sugar. He then uses yeast (酵母) to turn the sugar into ethanol. Professor Holzappple says two hundred liters of ethanol fuel can be produced from one ton of solid waste.
A professor at the University of Arkansas, John Geddie, is exploring another way to make ethanol. He is using acids on paper material. He says a large factory could produce ethanol from waste paper about the same cost of that of gasoline.
Environmentalists support the use of ethanol because it turns waste into a useful product. Professor Holzapple says law makers in industrial nations need to support the development of this renewable fuel of the future.
