Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
(2020·湖州教学质量检测)Unless you’re very young or very old, it’s likely you have some kind of relationship with email, whether you get hundreds of messages a day or a few dozen a week. A new study suggests that how we deal with these incoming messages could be affecting our stress levels and overall health.
A team from the Future Work Centre in the UK surveyed 2，000 people across various industries, sectors, and job roles, asking participants how they managed their email and how much associated stress they felt as a result. Overall, those who spent the most time organising and staying on top of messages felt the most emailrelated pressure too.
“While email can be a valuable communication tool, it’s clear that it’s a source of stress and frustration for many of us. The people who reported it being most useful to them also reported the highest levels of email pressure.” said one of the team, Richard MacKinnon.
Two of the habits linked to more emailrelated stress were checking for messages first thing in the morning and last thing at night. Half of those surveyed had push notifications(消息推送) set up for new email, while 62 percent of respondents left their email app open all day and all night. Both were linked to higher levels of email pressure. The survey also found that managers suffered more than nonmanagers.
Stress is not just a problem when it comes to our mood—it’s been linked to a lot of disorders such as heart disease, weight gain, memory impairment(减弱), digestive problems, and depression.
The researchers suggest that the relationship between emailrelated stress and the negative impact on home life is not the same for everyone.
【解题导语】　大部分人会接触到电子邮件，对电子邮件的处理方式会影响我们的压力层级和整体健康。
1．What’s the purpose of the study?
A．To find out how many people have an email account.
B．To know what sort of people use email most.
C．To find out how email management is related to stress.
D．To show what changes email has brought about to people.
C　解析：推理判断题。根据第一段第二句“A new study suggests that how we deal with these incoming messages could be affecting our stress levels and overall health.”并结合第三段内容可知，该研究旨在弄清处理电子邮件的方式和压力以及健康的关系，故C项正确。
2．Which of the following habits causes the most stress?
A．Checking email in the morning.
B．Checking email in the evening.
C．Keeping email app open at work.
D．Setting up push notifications for new email.
D　解析：细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Half of those surveyed had push notifications(消息推送) set up for new email, while 62 percent of respondents left their email app open all day and all night. Both were linked to higher levels of email pressure.”可知，一半的受访者设置了新的电子邮件推送通知，62%的受访者让他们的电子邮件应用程序整日整夜都开着，这两种习惯都导致更大的压力，比早晚查看电子邮件导致的压力更大，故D项正确。
3．Where does the text most probably come from?
A．Science fiction.
B．A science report.
C．A fashion magazine.
D．A book guide.
B　解析：文章出处题。通读全文可知，文章第一段第二句“A new study suggests that how we deal with these incoming messages could be affecting our stress levels and overall health.”为全文的主题句，据此可知，本文主要介绍了一项新的科学研究：处理电子邮件的方式影响我们的压力层级和整体健康。故本文最有可能选自一篇科学报告。

As carmakers push ahead with selfdriving vehicles, an Austrian aerospace company and its Chinese partner showed off their pilotless “flying taxi” for the first time in Europe on Thursday.
The drone(无人驾驶飞机) hummed loudly as it rose above the ground at Vienna’s Generali Arena, home to soccer club FK Austria Wien. The slim plane, which weighs 750 pounds, circled in the air briefly and came down within a few minutes.
“The EHang 216, which can seat two passengers, has been tested comprehensively and is essentially ready for mass production，” said Derrick Xiong, cofounder of Chinese drone maker EHang. “The drone can fly at up to 150 km per hour for almost half an hour，” FACC AG Chief Executive Officer Robert Machtlinger said. “It can travel between 50 and 70 kilometers depending on the load.” The passenger capsule is small, with leg room that taller passengers might find less than adequate, an Austrian photographer who took part in a demonstration(演示) flight told Reuters.
Joining the race for new autonomous aircraft services that do not require runways, EHang entered a strategic partnership last year with Austria’s FACC AG, owned by Chinese aerospace group AVIC, aiming to offer shortdistance services for passengers, industrial equipment and urgent medical deliveries. FACC AG says it has already received several thousand orders for the $336，000 drone, with the highest demand in China. Competitors working toward offering autonomous flying cars early in the next decade range from aerospace company Airbus to Uber and AeroMobil.
“Technically...urban mobility, flying without a pilot, is possible. It ’s not a dream，” said Machtlinger. “What is stopping us from going into larger volumes(量) is regulation, ” he added. “A future legal framework for autonomous flying vehicles should regulate communication with other planes and helicopters and provide traffic rules，” he said. “Austria supports international efforts to quickly establish the necessary regulation，” said transport minister Norbert Hofer. He hopes that Austria will be the place where thousands of these air taxis will be built and that very soon we will see a lot of these air taxis in the air.

【技巧点拨】　间接类事实细节题考法　该类试题的选项不出现原文的直接信息，而是借助同义转换、概念解析、归纳事实等方法对原文信息进行适当变换。如本题文章中指出“飞行出租车”的一个大障碍是规则，即缺乏相关的规定。
6．How does the author introduce the EHang 216?
A．By comparing it with similar products.

【难句分析】　The passenger capsule is small, with leg room that taller passengers might find less than adequate, an Austrian photographer who took part in a demonstration(演示) flight told Reuters.
分析：本句是一个主从复合句。that引导定语从句，先行词是leg room; who引导定语从句，先行词是an Austrian photographer。
译文：乘客舱非常小，个子高的乘客可能会发现上面带有的供腿脚活动的空间不太充足，一位参加了一次飞行演示的奥地利摄影师告诉路透社。
