Ⅰ.阅读理解

A

Violence on television is bad for people.In fact，when I watch shooting，killing and fighting on TV, it breaks my heart.Sometimes I can't open my eyes to watch it.I think it's not such a big problem with adults.They distinguish TV programmes from real life clearly, but it's not good to watch too much.

We watch many acts of violence on TV, and then we don't feel violence is violence.We need to have more time doing other things than watching TV.It's important to communicate with the family, go outside and do exercise, enjoy a hobby, think about something, and so on.TV is one part of our life enjoyment, and we must choose TV programmes wisely and watch actively.

Televised violence has many effects on kids.They want to imitate things they see.They don't know the difference between good things and bad things well.Moreover, in some programmes a robot comes up again after it has been killed.Little children don't know it's not the same as real life.They may behave aggressively(侵略地) against their friends.

Parents must control the TV programmes their children watch.But many parents go out for work, so they make TV take care of their children after school.People must think about the way to get along with TV.

Maybe I think it is bad to televise violent programmes while children are still awake.Violent shows are bad not only for children but also for society because people who watch violent TV shows want to imitate the TV shows.I think parents who have children should restrict their children's viewing of violent TV shows.

(　　)1.This passage mainly tells us________.

A．what the author thinks about televised violence

B．how to choose proper TV programmes to watch

C．why the author gets so addicted to violent programmes

D．how to break away from violent TV programmes

(　　)2.People don't feel violence is violence if ________.

A．they spend more time doing other things

B．they treat TV programmes as a kind of enjoyment

C．they watch too much of it every day

D．they often go out and do exercise

(　　)3.Violent programmes are bad for little kids because________.

A．they might do what they see in the programmes

B．they might fight against their friends

C．they don't know what a robot is made of

D．a robot can come back to life

(　　)4.According to the 4th paragraph, why do parents let their children watch TV after school?

A．They can't control the TV programmes.

B．They don't have time to take care of them.

C．Kids can benefit from the programmes.

D．Violent programmes are very interesting.

【语篇解读】本文是议论文。电视暴力对青少年有很大的负面影响，因此家长应限制孩子观看暴力节目。

1．A　主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章主要讲述作者对电视暴力节目的看法。

2．C　细节理解题。根据第二段的第一句“我们在电视上看到许多暴力动作，于是我们就不感觉暴力是暴力了”可知。

3．A　细节理解题。根据第三段内容可知，儿童不能辨别好坏，可能会模仿电视上的暴力动作，因此A项“孩子们会做出他们在节目里看到的事”为正确答案。

4．B　细节理解题。根据第四段第二句可知，许多家长让孩子看电视主要是因为他们要外出工作，没有时间照顾孩子。

B

I'm always told “Figure it out.Don't look it up.” I could use this advice when I turn to a search engine for answers.Should we all limit our use of technology?

Nicholas Carr is the author of “The Shallows: What the Internet Is Doing to Our Brains”. Carr says that we should take time away from screens.According to Carr, “Deep thinking, brain scientists have discovered, happens only when our minds are calm and attentive.”

Some might say technology like Google has positive effects.While it's true that the Internet gives us answers, it's not a good habit to go straight to Google.We forget things because we can get the answers so easily.

Why should people have to remember all that when they could turn to Google instead? We have to use our minds to solve problems.If we always turn to technology for answers, we'll never learn anything on our own.

An example is when my class had a maths test and we were allowed to use calculators.Most of us used it at every opportunity even though everyone in that room could have solved the problems on their own.We use technology because we can get the answers and don't want to be wrong.We use the Internet in the same way.

Not all technology use is bad.Adults and children use the same type of devices, but they use different content.

Adults likely use apps such as the calendar, notes, reminders and news articles.Kids and teenagers probably use apps for messages, games and streaming sites.

I think technology is not as unproductive as many people say.However, it's not the solution to every problem.

We should take a break from our devices by doing hobbies such as reading, drawing or playing sports.

This generation may have been born into a digital world, but we can set the next generation up for success.We can start by teaching them how to use technology productively and responsibly.

(　　)5.According to the passage, how does the Internet affect the way we solve problems?

A．We use the Internet to solve the problems on our own.

B．We use the Internet to memorize facts and solve problems.

C．We google for answers instead of thinking about a problem.

D．We turn to Google after we see how much we already know.

(　　)6.How do adults experience technology differently from kids?

A．Adults are more focused on managing schedules and being productive.

B．Adults do not spend as much time on their devices as kids and teenagers.

C．Adults know how to use technology to solve problems at work and at home.

D．Adults are less familiar with apps that are commonly available on smartphones.

(　　)7.What is the identity of the writer?

A．A student.　　 B．A teacher.

C．A researcher.　　 D．An editor.

【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文，主要讲述了网络科技双刃剑的属性：对我们有帮助，但如果我们过于依赖它们，就会丧失深度思考、解决问题的能力。

5．C　推理判断题。根据第四段“Why should people have to remember all that when they could turn to Google instead? We have to use our minds to solve problems(人们如果可以直接向Google求助，那么谁还会费神地记忆那么多事情呢？但事实上，我们必须通过自己的头脑解决问题)．”可知，互联网让我们习惯于只要遇到问题，第一时间上网搜寻答案，而不愿深度思考，靠自己解决问题。故选C项。

6．A　推理判断题。根据第七段“Adults likely use apps such as the calendar, notes, reminders and news articles(成人则喜欢像日历、便签笔记、备忘录及新闻文章的软件)．”可知，成人与孩子使用网络科技的不同点，在于他们更多是以时间管理、规划行程及提高工作效率为目的的。故选A项。

7．A　推理判断题。根据第五段“An example is when my class had a math test and we were allowed to use calculators(其中一个例子就是，我们的班级有一次进行数学考试，我们被允许使用计算器)．”可知，作者是一个还在学习阶段的学生。故选A项。
