To persist, life must reproduce. Scientists at the University of Vermont, Tufts University, and the Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering at Harvard University have discovered an entirely new form of biological reproduction and applied their discovery to create the first-ever, self-replicating (自我复制的) living robots.
Named Xenobots after the African clawed frog from which scientists take their stem cells, the machines are less than 0.04 inches wide—small enough to travel inside human bodies. They can walk and swim, survive for weeks without food, and work together in groups. They even have regenerative capabilities; when the scientists sliced into one robot, it healed by itself and kept moving.
The Xenobots could potentially be used toward a host of tasks. Xenobots could be used to clean up radioactive waste and collect microplastics in the oceans. Some Xenobots had holes in their center, which could potentially be used to transport drugs or medicines. “Traditional robots degrade (降解) over time and can produce harmful ecological and health side effects,” researchers said in the study, which was published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. As biological machines, Xenobots are more environmentally friendly and safer for human health. Aside from these immediate practical tasks, Xenobots could also help researchers to learn more about cell biology—opening the doors to future advancement in human health and longevity.
While the prospect of self-replicating biotechnology could spark concern, the researchers said that the living machines were entirely contained in a lab and easily destroyed, as they are biodegradable and regulated by experts. “There are many things that are possible if we take advantage of this kind of plasticity (可塑性) and ability of cells to solve problems,” said Joshua Bongard, one of the lead researchers at the University of Vermont.
8. Which of the following best explains “regenerative” underlined in paragraph 2?
A. Fighting disease.
B. Replacing old cells.
C. Recovering and growing again.
D. Self-cleaning regularly.
9. What can we learn about Xenobots from paragraph 3?
A. They can be widely applied to curing diseases.
B. They are harmless to the environment by degrading plastics.
C They are specially designed to collect radioactive waste.
D. They can serve well the research on human health.
10. What is Bongard’s attitude towards the self-replicating biotechnology?
A. Positive. B. Doubtful. C. Indifferent. D. Negative.
11. What does the text mainly talk about?
A. An application of a machine in medicine.
B. The invention of the first self-reproduction robots.
C. The trend of developing biotechnology.
D. An experiment on African clawed frogs.
【答案】8. C 9. D 10. A 11. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍有史以来第一个可以自我复制、有生命的机器人。
【8题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第二段“when the scientists sliced into one robot, it healed by itself and kept moving. (当科学家切开一个机器人时，它会自动愈合并继续成长。)”可知，机器人有自我愈合和修复功能，由此判断regenerative意思是“恢复并再次成长”，故选C项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Aside from these immediate practical tasks, Xenobots could also help researchers to learn more about cell biology——opening the doors to future advancement in human health and longevity. (除了这些直接的实际任务外，Xenobots还可以帮助研究人员更多地了解细胞生物学，为人类健康和长寿的未来进步打开大门。)”可知，Xenobots可以很好地服务于人类健康的研究。故选D项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段““There are many things that are possible if we take advantage of this kind of plasticity (可塑性) and ability of cells to solve problems,”said Joshua Bongard, one of the lead researchers at the university of Vermont. (佛蒙特大学的首席研究员之一的Joshua Bongard说：“如果我们利用这种可塑性和细胞解决问题的能力，有很多事情是可能的”。)”可知，Joshua Bongard认为自我复制生物技术能够做成很多事，因此他对自我复制生物技术是支持的态度，故选A项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Scientists at the University of Vermont, Tufts University, and the Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering at Harvard University have discovered an entirely new form of biological reproduction and applied their discovery to create the first-ever, self-replicating (自我复制的) living robots. (佛蒙特大学、塔夫茨大学和哈佛大学怀斯生物启发工程研究所的科学家们发现了一种全新的生物繁殖形式，并运用他们的发现创造了有史以来第一个可以自我复制的，有生命的机器人。)”可知，作者从第一段引入文章的主题：第一个可以自我复制的机器人的发明，故选B项。

Seagrass meadows(海草床) are wonder plants growing beneath the sea. They feed and shelter sea life and are masterful at storing carbon. Thanks to the assistance of tiger sharks, a huge seagrass meadow in the Bahamas Banks was recently discovered, offering the world a tool to fight climate change.
Seagrass has usually been detected by Earth-orbiting satellites that identify darker patches in the blue water. In this study, tiger sharks were selected as research tools due to their highly consistent associations with seagrass ecosystems. They spend 70% of their time in seagrass meadows. The team equipped eight tiger sharks with satellite tags (电子跟踪器), seven sharks with camera tags, and used a 360-degree camera on a shark for the first time ever.
The data researchers collected was astonishing. The world’s largest seagrass ecosystem, measuring at least 66,900 square kilometers, has been discovered. This reflects a 41% increase from previous estimates of global seagrass. Seagrass can capture (捕获) huge quantities of carbon by photosynthesis (光合作用) and stores it on the seafloor. In terms of climate change, this is excellent news; seagrass is 35 times faster a removing carbon than tropical rainforests. When referred to global seagrass carbon stock estimates, the study indicates that seagrass in the Bahamas may contain 19.2% to 26.3% of all the carbon stored in seagrass meadows on Earth.
Yet seagrass meadows are rapidly disappearing, with over 92% of meadows in the UK gone, according to the World Wildlife Fund. Scientists are collecting seeds and trying to grow new seagrass meadows through restoration projects. This new discovery offers optimism and proves the importance of the ocean for healing.
The sharks led us to the seagrass ecosystem in the Bahamas, which we now know is likely the most significant blue carbon sink(蓝色碳汇) on the planet. What this discovery shows us is that ocean exploration and research are essential for a healthy future. The untapped potential of the ocean is limitless. These meadows can be protected and can be replicated (复制,仿制), offering hope for climate change around the globe.
12. Why were tiger sharks chosen as research tools?
A. They are more flexible than other sea animals.
B. They can quickly adjust themselves to the deep sea.
C. They have a strong connection with seagrass ecosystems.
D. They can be easily equipped with experimental devices.
13. What are the numbers in paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. The decline of global seagrass meadows.
B. The impact of climate change on sea life.
C. The rapid increase in the amount of carbon on Earth.
D. The potential value of the world’s largest seagrass ecosystem.
14. What are scientists doing to protect seagrass?
A. Planting more seagrass meadows.
B. Developing new technology to collect seeds.
C. Mapping the distribution of seagrass meadows.
D. Encouraging people to join in restoration projects.
15. Which could be the best title for the text?
A. The New Way of Removing Carbon
B. The Significance of Ocean Exploration
C. A New Discovery: World’s Largest Seagrass Meadow
D. Tiger Sharks: Scientists’ Essential Helper to Study Climate
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. A 15. C
【解析】

Why I Got Rid of My Cell Phone
In 2017 I decided to take a break from my cell phone. Instead of shutting it off completely, I decided to turn it off for a month to see how it goes. By the end of the month I found that I could live without a cell phone. It has been seven months since I have lived without a cell phone. I would like to share with you the reasons why I decided to get rid of my cell phone.
___16___ Checking my phone was the first thing I did when I woke up and the last thing I did before going to sleep. Throughout the day I would check my phone countless of times. It became a bad habit of mine in which the only way to break it was to be far away from it.
When I owned a phone, I was constantly connected to it. I wasn’t taking enough time to see what was right in front of me. There was no end of the day when it came to work and there was not nearly enough time to relax. Instead, I was constantly going.___17___
___18___ If I was having a conversation with someone, I would think about what else I could be doing or texting other people instead of being fully present in the conversation. Now that I don’t have a cell phone, I am more present in my conversations and to my surroundings.
I was completely dependent on my cell phone.___19___ A cell phone was my quick and easy problem solver. Whatever problem I met during the day, I used my cell phone for the answer. Without my cell phone I have become more selfdependent and a selfproblem solver.
I also found that my sleep wasn’t as good as it had been in the past. Screens stimulate (刺激) your mind and can affect your natural sleep patterns.___20___ However, I did not have the selfcontrol to do this. I would go to bed with a stimulated mind causing me to have a poor night sleep.
A. It made me less social.
B. I found that I was addicted to my phone.
C. Having a cell phone split my attention in half.
D. I know that is not good for my health.
E. The answer to this is to turn off your phone a few hours before bed.
F. These phonefree travels were some of the most liberating moments of my life.
G. It was my watch, my alarm clock, my email, my maps, my wallet, and my way to talk with friends.
【答案】16. B 17. D 18. C 19. G 20. E
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了为什么作者要远离手机。
【16题详解】
根据下文内容“Checking my phone was the first thing I did when I woke up and the last thing I did before going to sleep.”可知，“我”早上起来第一件事情就是看手机，“我”晚上入睡前最后一件事情也是看手机可知，“我”发现“我”自己对手机上瘾了。故选B。
【17题详解】
根据文章第三段内容可知，“我”一有空就看手机，这让“我”觉得手机占据了“我”应该放松和休息的时间，从而影响了“我”的健康。故选D。
【18题详解】
由下文可知，手机分散了“我”的注意力。“我”在和别人聊天的时候，会时不时地去看“我”的手机，这不礼貌，也让“我”无法专心。故选C。
【19题详解】
根据空前“I was completely dependent on my cell phone.”可知，“我”完全依赖“我”的手机，空后“A cell phone was my quick and easy problem solver. ”可知，手机能快速、容易地解决问题，故G项，“我”的手机是“我”的手表、“我”的闹钟、“我”的电子邮件、“我”的地图等，衔接上下文，符合语境。故选G。
【20题详解】
根据空前“Screens stimulate (刺激) your mind and can affect your natural sleep patterns.”提到手机会影响睡眠，空后“However, I did not have the selfcontrol to do this.”提到，但是，“我”不能控制自己，故空处与下文形成转折，因此推断E项“解决办法是在睡觉前几个小时关掉你的手机。”故选E。

【36题详解】
考查时态。句意：历史上，无数女性为性别平等而奋斗。由“In history”可知，句子表示过去的事情，时态用一般过去时，空格处用过去式，故填fought。
【37题详解】
考查介词。句意：然后是玛丽·居里，她相信每个人都有某种天赋，无论付出什么代价，都必须得到这种天赋。at the cost of...是固定短语，意为“以……为代价”，因此at和cost搭配，空格处是介词at，故填at。
【38题详解】
考查强调句。句意：正是这些先驱者为今天的性别平等铺平了道路。根据句意和It was可知，句子是强调句，结构是“It is/was+被强调的部分+that/who+其他部分”，被强调的是trailblazers，是人，因此空格处是that/who。故填that/who。
【39题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：在中国，如今超过一半的大学毕业生是女性，首次超过了男性。句中谓语是are，空格处用非谓语动词，graduates和surpass之间是主谓关系，因此空格处用现在分词表主动，故填surpassing。

【42题详解】
考查连词。句意：如今，30多岁的单身女性是剩女，而30多岁的男性是黄金单身汉。“single women in their thirties are leftover women”和“men in their thirties are golden bachelors”是对比关系，因此空格处表示“而”，用并列连词while，故填while。
【43题详解】
考查形容词。句意：我奶奶今天早上刚刚打电话给我，教我如何在舞台上表现得甜美可爱。空格处用形容词作表语，adore的形容词是adorable，意为“可爱的”，故填adorable。
【44题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：她不知道超过一半的全国决赛选手是女孩，而且她们中的许多人在半决赛中穿着黑色的深色西装，而不是像她所说的那样穿粉红色的裙子。by是介词，其后跟所给词的动名词作宾语，故填wearing。
【45题详解】
考查副词。句意：我相信整个世界都会平等对待男性和女性，就像评委们对待这次演讲比赛的选手一样。空格处用副词修饰动词treat，equal的副词是equally，意为“平等地”，故填equally。

第二节（满分25分）
47. 阅读下面的材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I had a dream from primary school: to work in television. My parents owned a little grocery store, so we were definitely not fancy people. Thankfully, my dad had raised me to have a lot of confidence. He often said, “You can do anything you want to do.” My dad was particularly supportive. He was my steady rock — always there for me.
With his help and encouragement, I was admitted to the radio and television arts program at Ryerson in Toronto. I really loved the program and worked hard and I was named the most outstanding graduate. I felt like I was already living my dream. I began to think that maybe I could apply for an internship in CBC or CTV.
Luckily, Global Television had just started broadcasting in Canada that year. I thought to myself: I’m new and they're new, so if Fm going to get to know one person at Global, it might as well be the president. I was scared, but I knew deep down inside that this was what I wanted. When I called my dad and told him my plan, he said, “Good, Faye. That’s exactly what you should do.”
With my heart just about pounding out of my body, I called up the president of Global Television. Suddenly Mr. Slaight was on the phone. “I’ve heard that your studio facilities are amazing. I could come at eleven o’clock on Monday or eleven o’clock on Sunday for a tour. What would suit you better?” I caught him totally off guard. He stuttered a bit, and then picked a day. When I hung up, I was scared but excited.
I arrived at the studio on the appointed day. When Mr. Slaight took me around, he looked at me and said， “What do you want?” He sounded furious but curious. “All I want is a chance to audition. I just want you to know my face. That’s all I’m asking.”
I didn’t know whether I’d ever hear from him again, but two weeks later, his secretary called, “Mr. Slaight wants to know if you’d like to come and audition for a new school life show.” I immediately answered，“Sure!”
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1:
When I arrived at the station, I went direct into the audition and began my short performance.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
Finally came the day of my first public appearance on live TV with my parents at home watching.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
When I arrived at the station, I went direct into the audition and began my short performance. With boldness, I finished my performance relatively smoothly though palms were sweating. Never in my wildest dream did I imagine that I was indeed assigned the intern job to act on a school life show and my first public appearance on TV was in five days. After sharing the thrilling news with my dad, I received the warmest congratulations and expectations from my family. Picturing my families eagerly waiting for my performance, I worked day and night as busy as a bee for fear that I would make a fool of myself live on TV.
Finally came the day of my first public appearance on live TV with my parents at home watching. Wearing fancy dress and delicate make up, I was so proud but nervous that my show would be watched by so many audience. My mind suddenly went blank as I was immersed in my thoughts and totally forgot my lines. Deep frowns gradually climbed on my partners' face, with whose sudden vigorous pull, I was driven back to the reality. I soon came up with a little trick to make up for the embarrassing blank. As the show went on, so concentrated was I that I hardly dared to even blink my eyes. After my debut, I rang my dad with frustration and disappointment, only to reap his trust and encouragement again. It was literally dad's love that supported me along my way to be an outstanding actor.

From the concert halls of Europe to the tech industries of the United States, C. J. Santos has created a story across the globe.
Bom in Brazil, Santos moved to Switzerland at the age of 18, and earned degrees in both music performance and business administration there. During his next 10 years of “intense” career as a professional musician, he spent most of his time on the road. “I had the honor to perform in the top concert halls in Europe,” Santos said. “It really wore me out to be constantly traveling and performing, but it allowed me to see the world and understand it in its full diversity. This was a unique experience, and I carry its benefits with me to this day”
Through these experiences, Santos was able to become fluent in six languages. With these skills under his belt, Santos worked with his wife, who is also fluent in four languages, to develop a small translation business.
“Running it with no prior business experience was a challenging but exciting learning-by-doing experience,“ Santos said. “In addition, the translation industry experienced a massive digital transformation in the last decade.”
This brought Santos to an MBA/M.S. program in business analytics and information management, where he got rich experience, knowledge and perspectives in different industries. The program provided him with something he clearly enjoys in life: variety “It helped me take the most advantage of the translation industry’s digital transformation. What I gained from the program is more than what I managed in the 15 years in Europe,” he added.
As Santos continues to grow his business, he’s also working as an advisor. “The world’s digital transformation has advanced at high speed,” he said. “To me, it’s very exciting to be a valuable resource to those who need help to jump onboard the digital express.”
4. What did Santos think of his career as a musician?
A. Stable but stressful.
B. Tiring but rewarding.
C. Unique and enjoyable.
D. Demanding and fruitless.
5. What drove Santos to take up the MBA/M.S. program?
A. His strong desire for a Master’s Degree.
B. The challenge from starting a new business.
C. His lack of education background in business.
D. The demand for a learning-by-doing experience.
6. What is paragraph 5 mainly about?
A. The great variety Santos enjoys in life.
B. The application of digital transformation.
C. The benefits Santos got from the program.
D. Santos’s viewpoint on translation industry.
7. In which aspect does Santos probably offer help as an advisor?
A. Digital solutions.
B. Business analysis.
C. Translation skills.
D. Resources management.
【答案】4. B 5. B 6. C 7. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了C. J. Santos从欧洲的音乐厅到美国的科技产业的经历。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“It really wore me out to be constantly traveling and performing, but it allowed me to see the world and understand it in its full diversity. (不断的旅行和表演真的让我筋疲力尽，但它让我看到了世界，并充分理解了它的多样性)”可推断，桑托斯认为他的音乐家生涯虽然累但有回报。故选B。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段““Running it with no prior business experience was a challenging but exciting learning-by-doing experience,“ Santos said.

To persist, life must reproduce. Scientists at the University of Vermont, Tufts University, and the Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering at Harvard University have discovered an entirely new form of biological reproduction and applied their discovery to create the first-ever, self-replicating (自我复制的) living robots.
Named Xenobots after the African clawed frog from which scientists take their stem cells, the machines are less than 0.04 inches wide—small enough to travel inside human bodies. They can walk and swim, survive for weeks without food, and work together in groups. They even have regenerative capabilities; when the scientists sliced into one robot, it healed by itself and kept moving.
The Xenobots could potentially be used toward a host of tasks. Xenobots could be used to clean up radioactive waste and collect microplastics in the oceans. Some Xenobots had holes in their center, which could potentially be used to transport drugs or medicines. “Traditional robots degrade (降解) over time and can produce harmful ecological and health side effects,” researchers said in the study, which was published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. As biological machines, Xenobots are more environmentally friendly and safer for human health. Aside from these immediate practical tasks, Xenobots could also help researchers to learn more about cell biology—opening the doors to future advancement in human health and longevity.
While the prospect of self-replicating biotechnology could spark concern, the researchers said that the living machines were entirely contained in a lab and easily destroyed, as they are biodegradable and regulated by experts. “There are many things that are possible if we take advantage of this kind of plasticity (可塑性) and ability of cells to solve problems,” said Joshua Bongard, one of the lead researchers at the University of Vermont.
8. Which of the following best explains “regenerative” underlined in paragraph 2?

【答案】8. C 9. D 10. A 11. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍有史以来第一个可以自我复制、有生命的机器人。
【8题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第二段“when the scientists sliced into one robot, it healed by itself and kept moving. (当科学家切开一个机器人时，它会自动愈合并继续成长。)”可知，机器人有自我愈合和修复功能，由此判断regenerative意思是“恢复并再次成长”，故选C项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Aside from these immediate practical tasks, Xenobots could also help researchers to learn more about cell biology——opening the doors to future advancement in human health and longevity. (除了这些直接的实际任务外，Xenobots还可以帮助研究人员更多地了解细胞生物学，为人类健康和长寿的未来进步打开大门。)”可知，Xenobots可以很好地服务于人类健康的研究。故选D项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段““There are many things that are possible if we take advantage of this kind of plasticity (可塑性) and ability of cells to solve problems,”said Joshua Bongard, one of the lead researchers at the university of Vermont. (佛蒙特大学的首席研究员之一的Joshua Bongard说：“如果我们利用这种可塑性和细胞解决问题的能力，有很多事情是可能的”。)”可知，Joshua Bongard认为自我复制生物技术能够做成很多事，因此他对自我复制生物技术是支持的态度，故选A项。

Seagrass meadows(海草床) are wonder plants growing beneath the sea. They feed and shelter sea life and are masterful at storing carbon. Thanks to the assistance of tiger sharks, a huge seagrass meadow in the Bahamas Banks was recently discovered, offering the world a tool to fight climate change.
Seagrass has usually been detected by Earth-orbiting satellites that identify darker patches in the blue water. In this study, tiger sharks were selected as research tools due to their highly consistent associations with seagrass ecosystems. They spend 70% of their time in seagrass meadows. The team equipped eight tiger sharks with satellite tags (电子跟踪器), seven sharks with camera tags, and used a 360-degree camera on a shark for the first time ever.
The data researchers collected was astonishing. The world’s largest seagrass ecosystem, measuring at least 66,900 square kilometers, has been discovered. This reflects a 41% increase from previous estimates of global seagrass. Seagrass can capture (捕获) huge quantities of carbon by photosynthesis (光合作用) and stores it on the seafloor. In terms of climate change, this is excellent news; seagrass is 35 times faster a removing carbon than tropical rainforests. When referred to global seagrass carbon stock estimates, the study indicates that seagrass in the Bahamas may contain 19.2% to 26.3% of all the carbon stored in seagrass meadows on Earth.
Yet seagrass meadows are rapidly disappearing, with over 92% of meadows in the UK gone, according to the World Wildlife Fund. Scientists are collecting seeds and trying to grow new seagrass meadows through restoration projects. This new discovery offers optimism and proves the importance of the ocean for healing.
The sharks led us to the seagrass ecosystem in the Bahamas, which we now know is likely the most significant blue carbon sink(蓝色碳汇) on the planet. What this discovery shows us is that ocean exploration and research are essential for a healthy future. The untapped potential of the ocean is limitless. These meadows can be protected and can be replicated (复制,仿制), offering hope for climate change around the globe.
12. Why were tiger sharks chosen as research tools?
A. They are more flexible than other sea animals.
B. They can quickly adjust themselves to the deep sea.
C. They have a strong connection with seagrass ecosystems.
D. They can be easily equipped with experimental devices.
13. What are the numbers in paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. The decline of global seagrass meadows.
B. The impact of climate change on sea life.
C. The rapid increase in the amount of carbon on Earth.
D. The potential value of the world’s largest seagrass ecosystem.
14. What are scientists doing to protect seagrass?
A. Planting more seagrass meadows.
B. Developing new technology to collect seeds.
C. Mapping the distribution of seagrass meadows.
D. Encouraging people to join in restoration projects.
15. Which could be the best title for the text?
A. The New Way of Removing Carbon
B. The Significance of Ocean Exploration
C. A New Discovery: World’s Largest Seagrass Meadow
D. Tiger Sharks: Scientists’ Essential Helper to Study Climate
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. A 15. C

Why I Got Rid of My Cell Phone
In 2017 I decided to take a break from my cell phone. Instead of shutting it off completely, I decided to turn it off for a month to see how it goes. By the end of the month I found that I could live without a cell phone. It has been seven months since I have lived without a cell phone. I would like to share with you the reasons why I decided to get rid of my cell phone.
___16___ Checking my phone was the first thing I did when I woke up and the last thing I did before going to sleep. Throughout the day I would check my phone countless of times. It became a bad habit of mine in which the only way to break it was to be far away from it.
When I owned a phone, I was constantly connected to it. I wasn’t taking enough time to see what was right in front of me. There was no end of the day when it came to work and there was not nearly enough time to relax. Instead, I was constantly going.___17___
___18___ If I was having a conversation with someone, I would think about what else I could be doing or texting other people instead of being fully present in the conversation. Now that I don’t have a cell phone, I am more present in my conversations and to my surroundings.
I was completely dependent on my cell phone.___19___ A cell phone was my quick and easy problem solver. Whatever problem I met during the day, I used my cell phone for the answer. Without my cell phone I have become more selfdependent and a selfproblem solver.
I also found that my sleep wasn’t as good as it had been in the past. Screens stimulate (刺激) your mind and can affect your natural sleep patterns.___20___ However, I did not have the selfcontrol to do this. I would go to bed with a stimulated mind causing me to have a poor night sleep.
A. It made me less social.
B. I found that I was addicted to my phone.
C. Having a cell phone split my attention in half.
D. I know that is not good for my health.
E. The answer to this is to turn off your phone a few hours before bed.
F. These phonefree travels were some of the most liberating moments of my life.
G. It was my watch, my alarm clock, my email, my maps, my wallet, and my way to talk with friends.
【答案】16. B 17. D 18. C 19. G 20. E
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了为什么作者要远离手机。
【16题详解】
根据下文内容“Checking my phone was the first thing I did when I woke up and the last thing I did before going to sleep.”可知，“我”早上起来第一件事情就是看手机，“我”晚上入睡前最后一件事情也是看手机可知，“我”发现“我”自己对手机上瘾了。故选B。
【17题详解】
根据文章第三段内容可知，“我”一有空就看手机，这让“我”觉得手机占据了“我”应该放松和休息的时间，从而影响了“我”的健康。故选D。
【18题详解】
由下文可知，手机分散了“我”的注意力。“我”在和别人聊天的时候，会时不时地去看“我”的手机，这不礼貌，也让“我”无法专心。故选C。
【19题详解】
根据空前“I was completely dependent on my cell phone.”可知，“我”完全依赖“我”的手机，空后“A cell phone was my quick and easy problem solver. ”可知，手机能快速、容易地解决问题，故G项，“我”的手机是“我”的手表、“我”的闹钟、“我”的电子邮件、“我”的地图等，衔接上下文，符合语境。故选G。
【20题详解】
根据空前“Screens stimulate (刺激) your mind and can affect your natural sleep patterns.”提到手机会影响睡眠，空后“However, I did not have the selfcontrol to do this.”提到，但是，“我”不能控制自己，故空处与下文形成转折，因此推断E项“解决办法是在睡觉前几个小时关掉你的手机。”故选E。

47. 阅读下面的材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I had a dream from primary school: to work in television. My parents owned a little grocery store, so we were definitely not fancy people. Thankfully, my dad had raised me to have a lot of confidence. He often said, “You can do anything you want to do.” My dad was particularly supportive. He was my steady rock — always there for me.
With his help and encouragement, I was admitted to the radio and television arts program at Ryerson in Toronto. I really loved the program and worked hard and I was named the most outstanding graduate. I felt like I was already living my dream. I began to think that maybe I could apply for an internship in CBC or CTV.
Luckily, Global Television had just started broadcasting in Canada that year. I thought to myself: I’m new and they're new, so if Fm going to get to know one person at Global, it might as well be the president. I was scared, but I knew deep down inside that this was what I wanted. When I called my dad and told him my plan, he said, “Good, Faye. That’s exactly what you should do.”
With my heart just about pounding out of my body, I called up the president of Global Television. Suddenly Mr. Slaight was on the phone. “I’ve heard that your studio facilities are amazing. I could come at eleven o’clock on Monday or eleven o’clock on Sunday for a tour. What would suit you better?” I caught him totally off guard. He stuttered a bit, and then picked a day. When I hung up, I was scared but excited.
I arrived at the studio on the appointed day. When Mr. Slaight took me around, he looked at me and said， “What do you want?” He sounded furious but curious. “All I want is a chance to audition. I just want you to know my face. That’s all I’m asking.”
I didn’t know whether I’d ever hear from him again, but two weeks later, his secretary called, “Mr. Slaight wants to know if you’d like to come and audition for a new school life show.” I immediately answered，“Sure!”

【答案】One possible version:
When I arrived at the station, I went direct into the audition and began my short performance. With boldness, I finished my performance relatively smoothly though palms were sweating. Never in my wildest dream did I imagine that I was indeed assigned the intern job to act on a school life show and my first public appearance on TV was in five days. After sharing the thrilling news with my dad, I received the warmest congratulations and expectations from my family. Picturing my families eagerly waiting for my performance, I worked day and night as busy as a bee for fear that I would make a fool of myself live on TV.
Finally came the day of my first public appearance on live TV with my parents at home watching. Wearing fancy dress and delicate make up, I was so proud but nervous that my show would be watched by so many audience. My mind suddenly went blank as I was immersed in my thoughts and totally forgot my lines. Deep frowns gradually climbed on my partners' face, with whose sudden vigorous pull, I was driven back to the reality. I soon came up with a little trick to make up for the embarrassing blank. As the show went on, so concentrated was I that I hardly dared to even blink my eyes. After my debut, I rang my dad with frustration and disappointment, only to reap his trust and encouragement again. It was literally dad's love that supported me along my way to be an outstanding actor.
