分析 本文介绍了一种新型的教育产品--电子阅读器.文章首先说传统的书包沉重,以此来说明电子阅读器的优点和特点,接着从其容量、体积、功能、形状等各个方面作了详细介绍.最后介绍了人们对它的态度:有的学校广泛使用,有些家长对它表示担忧,因为它就爱那个改变学生的学习习惯.
解答 71.throw away heavy schoolbags.考查汉译英.扔掉:throw away.故答案是throw away heavy schoolbags.
72.Cushing Academy's/(the)high school's.考查代词的指代.根据上文"Cushing Academy,a high school in Massachusetts,USA,replaced most of the 20,000 books"所述,Cushing Academy就是美国麻省的一所中学(a high school).注意这种表达方式:在一个词或事物后用另一个词或事物或表达方式来解释前者.例如,在本句中,Cushing Academy=a high school in Massachusetts,USA.故its代指Cushing Academy's或者(the)high school's.故答案是Cushing Academy's/(the)high school's.
73.so的同义词是very; don't have to 的同义词是needn't.考查副词和情态动词.so意思是"这么,很,非常",为副词,在此修饰形容词easy,它还可修饰副词.故其意义和用法跟副词very相同.don't have to 意思是"不必",和needn't意思相同.故答案是so的同义词是very; don't have to 的同义词是needn't.
74.Homework can also be sent and received through it.考查被动语态.原句为主动语态.现在句子主语为homework,它不是动词send和receive这两个动作的发出者,而是这两个动作的承受者,所以,要用被动语态,即"be+过去分词"形式.在情态动词can之后,be仍然用原形,动词send和receive分别用其过去分词sent和received.这里只需填be sent.故答案是Homework can also be sent and received through it.
75.small,thin,light,excellent,new,special (其中任意两个).细节题.
根据第二段"So people want to (A)扔掉沉书包and read with small,light e-readers"一句,其中的形容词small和light就是直接修饰电子阅读器(e-readers),表明其特点是(体积)小巧而(重量)轻便.
根据第三段中"Most e-readers are thin and weigh less than500g"一句,其中的thin描写e-readers,说明其形状(单薄).该段中还有其他句子,其中的形容词要么修饰阅读器,要么用于它.light,excellent,new,special (其中任意两个).
点评 首先要仔细阅读短文,掌握大意,然后结合具体的题目,就可以确定正确答案.
The best children's books are (30)B very difficult nor very simple,and satisfy the (31)A who hears the story and the adult who (32)D it.Unfortunately,there are in fact few books like this,(33)C the problem of finding the right bedtime story is not (34)B to solve.This may be why many of the books regarded as (35)D of children's literature(文学) were in fact written for (36)A"Alice in Wonderland"is perhaps the most obvious(明显)of this.
Children,left for themselves,often (37)B the worst possible interest in literature.Just leave a child in a bookshop or a (38)D and he will more willingly choose the books written in an unimaginative way,or have a look at the most children's comics,full of the stories and jokes which are the rejections(摒弃物) of teachers and righting-thinking parents.
Perhaps we parents should stop (39)C to brainwash(洗脑)children into accepting our taste in literature.After all,children and adults are so (40)C that we parents should not expect that they will enjoy the same books.So I suppose we'll just have to compromise(妥协)over the bedtime story.
