【解析】

这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了故事和新闻是如何呈现在报纸上的。

1考查宾语从句连接词。分析句子结构可知,此处是宾语从句连接词,从句a story gets into the newspaper成分完整,但缺少“怎么/如何”之意,故填how

2考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知,此处是非限制性定语从句关系词,先行词scene在从句中充当at的宾语,故用关系代词which,故填which

3考查非谓语动词。分析句子可知,此处应用set的非谓语动词形式作状语,它和逻辑主语he之间是主动关系,故用现在分词作状语,故填setting

4考查短语。此处考查短语allow sb. to do sth. “允许某人做某事”,故填to write

5考查代词。句意:很多记者使用手提电脑,这让他们可以在现场写故事,然后把它发回办公室。结合句意可知,此处应用代词指代上文的story,故填it

6考查介词。此处考查短语at the same time“同时”,故填At

7考查时态和语态。本文讲述一般事实,应用一般现在时,主语thisdo之间是被动关系,故用一般现在时的被动语态,故填is done

8考查副词。此处应用副词修饰形容词短语the same,故填exactly

9考查部分倒装和短语。分析句子可知,此处是主句谓语动词,因“only + 状语”位于句首,故主句部分倒装,根据短语be ready for“为……做准备”判断此处填be动词,由前文的checks判断为一般现在时,主语the newspaper不可数,故填is

10考查形容词。此处应填形容词修饰名词newspaper,故填daily

2小题考查定语从句关系词。确定定语从句关系词一般分为三步:找出先行词;分析先行词在从句中充当什么成分;考虑特殊情况。以本题为例:

找出先行词:scene

分析先行词在从句中充当什么成分:先行词scene在从句at ___2___ he talks to passengers中充当宾语,应用关系代词

考虑特殊情况:非限制性定语从句中不能使用that,且位于介词之后作宾语也不能用that

故填which

Then a reporter is sent to the, ,

【题目】 When I was growing up in America, I was ashamed of my mother’s Chinese English. Because of her English, she was often treated unfairly. People in department stores, at banks, and at restaurants did not take her seriously, did not give her good service, pretended not to understand her, or even acted as if they did not hear her.

My mother has long realized the limitations of her English as well. When I was fifteen, she used to have me call people on the phone to pretend I was she. I was forced to ask for information or even to shout at people who had been rude to her. One time I had to call her stockbroker (股票经纪人). I said in an adolescent voice that was not very convincing(令人相信的), “This is Mrs. Tan.”

And my mother was standing beside me, whispering loudly, “Why he don’t send me check already two week late.”

And then, in perfect English I said : “I’m getting rather concerned .You agreed to send the check two weeks ago, but it hasn’t arrived.”

Then she talked more loudly. “What he want? I come to New York tell him front of his boss.” And so I turned to the stockbroker again, “I can’t tolerate(容忍) any more excuse. If I don’t receive the check immediately, I am going to have to speak to your manager when I am in New York next week.”

The next week we ended up in New York. While I was sitting there red-faced, my mother, the real Mrs. Tan, was shouting to his boss in her broken English.

When I was a teenager, my mother’s broken English embarrassed(使尴尬) me. But now, I see it differently. To me, my mother’s English is perfectly clear, perfectly natural. It is my mother tongue. Her language, as I hear it, is vivid, direct, and full of observation and wisdom. It was the language that helped shape(影响) the way I saw things, expressed ideas, and made sense of the world.

1Why was the author’s mother poorly served?

【题目】Directions: Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.

Each of us has a time of the day when we’re at our best. For some, it’s the morning, and for others, the afternoon or evening. These times relate to what scientists call our circadian clock (生物钟). 1

The research is the work of two authors, Aaron Schirmer and Benjamin Smarr. The pair used data from a university computer system to study the rhythms and activities of 15,000 students at Northeastern Illinois University between 2014 and 2016. They studied the data to see if there was a connection between the students’ schedules, their natural circadian clocks and their school performance.

2 But if students’ clock doesn’t agree with the rest of their lives, their performance was likely to suffer.

According to the study, those students who suffered from a mismatch underwent a kind of “social jet lag(时差)”. For example, some students performed best at night and therefore chose to study in the evening. But if those students had an early morning class, they often felt tired from late night studying and didn’t get the most out of the class. They might then go on to get a lower grade for exams and coursework. 3

The authors say mismatches between a student’s schedule and circadian clock can have a harmful effect, and not just in terms of academic performance. Social jet lag can also be bad for students’ health.

The authors don’t claim their study proves anything, but they do say that it provides food for thought for school administrators, who might like to think about special ways to help students who suffer on account of their schedules. 4

A.In addition, the findings alerted parents to their children’s sleeping patterns.

B.The study found that the closer a student’s schedule and their circadian clock, the better their grades were.

C.All students in the study suffered some degree of social jet lag, but late-night studiers suffered the most.

D.The clock genes create circadian rhythms in the body, which help control the timing of a variety of biological changes.

E.The findings could also help everyone to be aware, and hopefully take advantage, of their own biological rhythms to lead a healthy life.

F.Now, a new study suggests that the relationship between students’ circadian clocks and their study schedules can have a big effect on their grades.
