15．"I can't live without my mobile phone!"is what I often hear people say as they talk about how mobiles have become an essential part of their lives．
    The all so common sight of heads bent，eyes staring at mobile screens and fingers busy tapping away repeats itself across major cities around the world．Whenever there is a moment to spare while on the train，taxi or waiting in a queue，people busy themselves with their mobile phones．
    Some people believe our unhealthy obsession with mobile phones is destroying how we appreciate the little things in life or miss the moments that matter．The truth is that technology overall should be seen as just a tool to improve our lives．
    Mobile phones have certainly had a great influence on our lives，but I truly believe it is for the better．
    It's changed the way we communicate，whether for work or play．We are now less constrained（限制）by time and geographical location．With my mobile phone，I can dial into conference calls while stuck in a traffic jam，or reply to urgent e-mails while on the go．I can send a text message or share photos and videos with friends who aren't living in the same country．My phone calendar keeps my life organized，and even Facebook，Twitter，and instant messaging are now accessible from mobile phones!
    The mobile revolution isn't just changing the lives of urbanities （都市人） like myself．I know of a young Bangladeshi woman named Shompa Akhter who is crazy about fashion and design．She dreamt about starting her own business and she did just that，opening a shop in Kushtia featuring her own creations．Dealing with supplies in different towns was a problem for Shompa---purchase orders had to either be hand delivered or mailed out to supplies．Shompa also found it tough publicizing （宣传）her business to potential customers outside her town．But once she learnt to operate the mobile phone，she was addicted．The 25-year-old businesswoman now stays in touch easily with her suppliers．Mobile e-mail is a blessing in her life．
    Who would have thought that mobility could bring about such enormous change？It shouldn't really be a surprise though．

51．In the first two paragraphs，the author wants to showD．
A．mobile phones make people communicate less
B．mobile phones make people's life more enjoyable
C．people's health is greatly affected by mobile phones
D．people become addicted to mobile phones in daily life
52．What's the author's attitude towards mobile phones？A．
A．Supportive         B．Doubtful           C．Critical    D．Uninterested
53．Paragraph 5 is mainly aboutC．
A．new functions of mobile phones         
B．new changes in Information Age
C．the advantages of mobile phones         
D．the author's personal experiences
54．What do we know about Shompa？D
A．She operates a food store            
B．She is addicted to Internet surfing
C．Mobile e-mail is still unavailable to her 
D．Her mobile phone helped her business a lot
55．How is the text mainly developed？D
A．By inferring．
B．By listing examples．
C．By giving explanations．
D．By comparing different ideas．

分析 手机对人们的生活影响巨大，有人甚至说"没有手机就活不下去"．手机对人们生活固然有不利
影响，但它同时带来的巨大好处也是显而易见的．

解答 51-55DACDD
51．D 目的意图题．通读文章第一段和第二段可知，作者描述了手机对人们生活产生的巨大影响：人们高呼没有手机就活不下去；不管在哪里，只要有时间，人们就会盯着手机等等．因此可以归纳出"在日常生活中，人们已经沉迷于手机"这个结论，这也正是作者想要表达的．故选D．
52．A 态度观点题．根据第四段Mobile phones have certainly had a great influence on our lives，but I truly believe it is for the better．和最后一段Who would have thought that mobility could bring about such enormous change？等语句可以看出来作者对于手机是支持的，认为它给人们的生活带来了极大的好处．故选A．
53．C 主旨大意题．通读第五段可知，这一段主要描述的是手机的一些优点．故选C．
54．D 推理判断题．根据倒数第二段的内容可知，借助于手机和电子邮件，Shompa可以随时与供货商保持联系，做生意容易多了．故选D．
55．D 篇章结构题．分析全文可知作者先谈到了手机的坏处，后面又分析的是手机的优点．这是比较不同的观点．故选D．

点评 人物故事类阅读理解文章是高考英语常考材料之一．这类文章一般可分为人物传记和短篇故事两类．这两类阅读材料一般较长，即词数多，而且命题也较多，特别是推理判断题和事实细节题多．在做此类阅读理解题时往往是材料看得懂，题目不好做的感觉．因此，在阅读材料时要重点放在事情发展的过程和结果上，注意把握事件的发展进程及人物之间的关系，细节与主题的关系，用以说明人物性格特点的事实、作者的态度等，这些内容往往是推理判断题的命题点．至于事实细节题的解答，同学们切忌想当然或者凭印象，一定要找到文章中的原句，和题干进行比较，再做出正确选择．

5．Born in 1949，Diana Nyad took an early interest in swimming as a sport and was a Florida State High School swimming champion．Like many young athletes，she had Olympic dreams，but a serious illness kept her from competing in the Games．The disappointment didn't stop her from going forward．Instead，she became interested in marathon swimming．A brilliant athlete，she was well-conditioned for spending long periods of time in the water．As a long-distance swimmer，she would compete against herself and the obstacles presented by distance，danger，cold，and exhaustion．
    For ten years Nyad devoted herself to becoming one of the world's best long-distance swimmers．In 1970，she swam a ten-mile marathon in Lake Ontario，setting the women's record for the course．In 1972 she set another record by swimming 102.5 miles from an island in the Bahamas to the coast of Florida．Then she broke a third record when swimming around Manhattan Island in 1975．
    Nyad attempted to swim the distance between Florida and Cuba in l978．Though the span of water is less than 100 miles wide，it is rough and dangerous．After battling the water for two days，she had to give up for the sake of her own health and safety．Even so，she impressed the world with her courage and strong desire to succeed．For Nyad her strength of purpose was just as important as reading Cuba．That is how she defined success．It did not matter that her swim came up short；she believed she had touched the other shore．
    When Nyad ended her career as a swimmer，she continued to try new things-travelling the world as a reporter，writing books and giving public speeches about her life．Diana Nyad works to inspire others，just as she did when she swam the waters of the world．

56．What prevented Nyad from taking part in the Olympic Games？（No more than 5 words）A serious illness（did）
57．What does the underlined word"obstacles"mean？（1 word）Difficulties/Problems/Troubles/Challenges
58．What achievement did Nyad make in 1970？（No more than 10 words．）She swam a ten-mile marathon and set women's record．
Or：She swam a ten-mile marathon，setting the women's record．
Or：She set the women's record for a ten-mile marathon swimming．
59．Why did Nyad believe that she had touched the other shore？（No more than 10 words）Because she had tried her best（to fulfill the task）．
Or：Her strength of purpose was as important as reaching Cuba．
60．Please explain how you are inspired by Nyad．（No more than 20 words）I learned that once we set a goal，we should try hard to achieve it．
Or：We should never stop trying new things and we may achieve success in different fields．．
