【题目】When I was a child I thought a lot about what it means to love. I once asked my mother if she loved me or my father 【1】(many), certain that I knew the answer — me. Instead, she bent down and looked at me【2】 the eye, hands gently on each shoulder. She explained that she couldn’t help 【3】(love) me and that the love of a mother for her baby was incredibly strong. But then she told me that the love she had for my daddy was a love of 【4】(choose), which made it special. Of all the people in the world, she chose 【5】 and he chose her. Now that I’m married, I consider each day 【6】 it takes to stay married as long as my parents have. It’s not that I don’t believe in romance. 【7】 I believe more in the sacred of the ordinary. I believe in love that is sustained by deliberate 【8】(kind) and the choice to see little acts as testaments of love and commitment rather than indicators of a spark that has died of love communicated each time he cooks meals and I schedule his dental appointment. This picture of love is certainly less 【9】(excite), but decidedly real, and more romantic in its own way because of the weight of its 【10】(real).

【答案】

【1】more

【2】in

【3】loving

【4】choice

【5】him

【6】what

【7】But

【8】kindness

【9】exciting

【10】reality

【解析】这是一篇记叙文，作者讲述了自己小时候问自己的母亲是爱自己的孩子多一点、还是爱自己的丈夫多一点。作者当时确信母亲爱自己多一点，但是她的母亲的回答却让她出乎意料；后来作者自己也是如同她的母亲那样处理自己的问题。本文的主线是＂爱＂，特点是强调爱对下一代人的影响。

【1】作者拿母亲对自己与对父亲的爱进行对比，应用比较级，所以填more。

【2】look at somebody in the eye表示＂看着某人的眼睛＂，是固定用法，所以填in。

【3】can’t/couldn’t help doing表示＂情不自禁做某事＂，是固定用法，所以填loving。

【4】此处是在介词of的后面，所以用名词choice表示一种对爱的选择，所以填choice。

【5】此处表示＂她选择了他，他选择了她＂，所以填him。

【6】it takes sth to do＂中，take表示＂需要，花费＂，句中缺少sth，而且此处需要一个连接词连接两句话，故用what。

【7】前后两句话形成了对比，所以用But。

【8】这里需要一个名词，所以用kindness。

【9】这句话的意思是＂爱的场景一定不那么让人兴奋……＂。主语是The picture of love，指物，应用-ing形容词，故填exciting。，

【10】此处的意思是它以自己的方式更加浪漫，因为现实的分量。表示＂现实/真实＂，所以填reality。

【题目】A new study, which was published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine, found that heavy use of platforms such as Facebook and Snapchat was associated with feelings of being separated from society among young adults—basically the opposite of what we are led to believe.

Study co-author Brian Primack and his team surveyed 1,787 U. S. adults aged 19 to 32 and asked them about their usage of 11 social media platforms. They also asked participants questions related to social isolation, such as how often they felt left out. The participants who reported spending the most time on social media—over two hours a day—had twice the odds of perceived（感知到的）social isolation than those who said they spent a half-hour per day or less on the same sites.

According to Tom Kersting, psychotherapist and author of Disconnected, the key to understanding these results lies in our understanding of “connections.” “Humans are social —emotional beings, meaning that it is in our DNA to be connected, face-to-face, with other humans,” he told Reader’s Digest. “Although people think being on social media all the time makes them ‘connected’ to others, they are actually ‘disconnected,’ because the more time one spends behind a screen, the less time one spend face-to-face.”

“Part of the issue of loneliness is that the majority of people who use social media aren’t just posting, they are also viewing,” Kersting continued. “They are spending a lot of time looking at everyone else’s posts, where they are and what they are doing. The constant exposure to everyone else’s ‘perfect’ life experiences causes feelings of being left out.”

So what’s the answer? It’s simple, says Kersting. “The solution to this is resisting the temptation to look at everyone else’s life. Just focus on your own life, where you’re going, what you are grateful for, and what you want to accomplish in this world.”

【1】What is the finding of the new study?

A. Humans are social-emotional beings.

C. Social media strengthens interpersonal relationship.

D. Heavy use of Social media can lead to loneliness.

【2】How did the team conduct their research?

【3】Who might have a strong feeling of social isolation?

A. Those who use a single social media platforms.

B. Those who spend three hours a day on social media.

C. Those who don’t spend time on social media.

D. Those spending a half-hour per day on social media.

【4】What does Kersting suggest people do to avoid feelings of social isolation?

A. Never compare with others. B. Make more fiends on the internet.

C. Choose a travel destination. D. Set up a clear goal for the future.

【题目】Swiss researchers said Monday they have developed a wireless camera system to monitor vital signs in premature babies, a move that could replace uncomfortable and highly inaccurate skin sensors (传感器) which produce false alarms in up to 90 percent of cases, mainly set off by the baby’s movement.

“This is a cause of discomfort for the babies, because we have to check on them every time,” said Jean-Claude Fauchere, a doctor at University Hospital Zurich’s newborn clinic.

His hospital is preparing to begin tests of a new, contactless system created by researchers at the EPFL polytechnical university in Lausanne and at the Swiss Center for Electronics and Microtechnology.

The system designed in Switzerland should allow premature babies kept warm in incubators (恒温箱) to be medically monitored using highly sensitive cameras that detect the newborn’s pulse by analyzing its skin color, which changes so slightly every time its heart beats.

“Breathing is monitored by measuring movements of its chest and shoulders. At night, infrared (红外线的) cameras take over, and monitoring can be carried out non-stop,” the statement said.

The visual system was designed by CSEM researchers, who chose cameras sensitive enough to detect minute changes in skin color, while the EPFL researchers designed algorithms (运算程序) to process the data in real time.

“We ran an early study on adults, where we looked at a specific part of skin on their foreheads,” EPFL doctoral student Sibylle Fallet said. “With our algorithms we can track this area when the person moves, and use tiny changes in their color to determine the pulse,” she said. “The tests showed that the cameras produced practically the same results as conventional sensors.”

Once the system has been widely tested on premature babies, it could one day replace skin sensors altogether, the schools said.

【1】What is the advantage of the wireless camera system?

A. It is light and painless. B. It is mobile and effective.

C. It is cheap and convenient. D. It is comfortable and accurate.

【2】What is the key for the wireless camera to monitor a premature baby?

A. Its non-stop measurement.

B. Good condition of incubators.

C. Its sensitivity to sense skin color change.

D. The algorithms to process the data in time.

【3】It be inferred from what Sibylle Fallet said that .

A. their early study on adults was successful

B. the system has been used on premature babies

C. the visual system can sense the people’s pulse

D. the wireless cameras will replace conventional sensors

【4】What’s the schools’ attitude towards the visual system?

A. Doubtful. B. Optimistic. C. Unconcerned. D. Uncertain.

【题目】根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中的两项为多余选项。UrbanizationUntil relatively recently, the vast majority of human being lived and died without ever seeing a city. The first city was probably founded no more than 5,500 years ago.【1】In fact, nearly everyone lived on farms or in tiny rural (乡村的) villages. It was not until the 20th century that Great Britain became the first urban society in history—a society in which the majority of people live in cities and do not farm for a living.Britain was only the beginning.【2】The process of urbanization—the migration (迁徙) of people from the countryside to the city—was the result of modernization, which has rapidly transformed how people live and where they live.In 1900, fewer than 40% of Americans lived in urban areas. Today, over 82% of Americans live in cities. Only about 2% live on farms.【3】Large cities were impossible until agriculture became industrialized. Even in advanced agricultural societies, it took about ninetyfive people on farms to feed five people in cities.【4】Until modern times, those living in cities were mainly the ruling elite (精英) and the servants, laborers and professionals who served them. Cities survived by taxing farmers and were limited in size by the amount of surplus（过剩）food that the rural population produced and by the ability to move this surplus from farm to city.Over the past two centuries, the Industrial Revolution has broken this balance between the city and the country.【5】Today, instead of needing ninetyfive farmers to feed five city people, one American farmer is able to feed more than a hundred nonfarmers.

A. That kept cities very small.

B. The rest live in small towns.

C. The effects of urban living on people should be considered

D. Soon many other industrial nations became urban societies.

E. But even 200 years ago, only a few people could live in cities.

F. Modernization drew people to the cities and made farmers more productive.

G. Modern cities have destroyed social relations and the health of human beings.
