　　Much of the American anxiety about old age is a purposeful distance from the reality of death. One of the striking qualities of the American character is the unwillingness to face either the fact or the meaning of death. On the contrary, in the novels of many famous American writers—from Hawthorne to Faulkner and Hemingway—one finds a tragic depth that is under the surface thinness of the ordinary American death attitudes. By an effort of the artistic imagination, the great writers faced death topic which the general public are reluctant(不愿意的)to face—the fact of death, its mystery, and its place in life. Scenes about death, such as the conflicts death brings in Greek times and the religious celebration of death in the rich farming cultures of some parts of Europe, are vividly described and discussed in their novels, although these scenes are difficult to find in the real American life.

　　Out of fear of the emotional sufferings, the American ordinary people avoid topics about death. They surround death with word avoidance. Americans never“die”. They “pass away”. A “funeral hall ”is decorated to look like a bank. Everything in a funeral ceremony is done in low tones, as if it were something secret, to be hidden from the world. There is so much emphasis on being dignified(庄严的)that the ceremony often loses its quality of dignity.

　　In some parts of the world, there’s difficulty in understanding the causes of death. It’s difficult to explain death in these cultures. Living in a modern society, Americans have a ready enough explanation of how death comes, yet they show little ability to accept the fact of death itself and the emotional pain it brings. “To my disappointment, we, American people, sing over birth and dance at weddings,”says Margaret Mead, a famous American anthropologist(人类学家), “but more and more push the death off the scene without ceremony, without an opportunity for the young and the old to know that death is as much a fact of life as is birth. ”(343W)

　　1. The passage is mainly about　.

　　A. the emotional sufferings from death

　　B. different cultures’ attitudes toward death

　　C. Americans’ attitudes toward death

　　D. methods of avoiding death

　　2. In the novels of many famous American writers, one will find　.

　　A. ordinary Americans’ death attitudes

　　B. a willingness to accept death as a fact of life

　　C. the relationship between lovers

　　D. the reason for ordinary Americans’ beliefs about death

　　3. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?

　　A. Unwillingness to face death is a quality of the American character.

　　B. Ordinary Americans avoid saying the word “die” directly.

　　C. Americans are afraid of the death topics because of the possible emotional pains it causes.

　　D. Most Americans can’t explain the causes of death scientifically.

　　4. Margaret Mead suggests that　.

　　A. we should not be joyful at birth

　　B. we should avoid funeral as it is connected with death

　　C. a wedding should be quiet and peaceful

　　D. death should be accepted in the same spirit as marriage and birth

　　B

　　You’ve probably grown accustomed to texting in the glow of a mobile phone screen. Well, there’s some good and bad news coming for those of you who spend hours speedily tapping messages to one another.

　　The good news is that the hours you spend face-to-phone are paying off. You may have become fluent in a second language.

　　The bad news, however, is that this language is texting. Worse still, there isn’t yet a texting section in your school exams, so you’ll need to work harder to recover the grammar skills you might be killing with every LOL and BRB(Be right back).

　　A new study confirms what many parents suspect. The more kids send and receive texts, the poorer their grammar skills become.

　　With “the culture of mobile communication—quick back and forth(来回), there are compromises on traditional, cultural writing”, said S. Shyam Sundar, professor of Pennsylvania State University, which conducted the study.

　　“Techspeak” , as Sundar and his research partner Drew P. Cingel call it, has become so prevalent(普遍的)among young users that it’s changing their foundation of basic grammar.

　　“Routine use of textual(原文的)adaptations by current and future generations of 13-to-17-year-olds may serve to create the impression that this is normal and accepted use of the language, ”they said in their published findings.

　　It seems teenagers are unable to “code

　　switch-shift” between standard grammar and the abbreviations(缩写)used in text messages, Sundar said. These abbreviations have become the real words for them now.

　　However, linguists(语言学家)aren’t particularly disturbed by the trend, Sundar added. “The linguists will tell you the language is very dynamic. ”

　　Still, students have exams to worry about. Here’s a sample(范例)of the questions, so you can test yourself to see how texting has affected your grammar:

　　·During the flood, we(dranked, drank, drunk, drunked)bottled water.

　　·Fortunately, Jim’s name was(accepted, excepted)from the list of those who would have to clean bathrooms because he was supposed to go downtown to(accept, except)a reward for the German Club.

　　·The dress is so large that it is(lose, loose)on me when I wear it!(335W)

　　5. What is the main point of the article?

　　A. To report the popularity of texting among teens.

　　B. To introduce the effects of texting on grammar.

　　C. To inform us that texting is likely to become a second language for teens.

　　D. To analyze how texting influences the culture of mobile communication.

　　6. According to the new study, the more you text, 　.

　　A. the faster you may learn a second language

　　B. the poorer your communication skills might become in real life

　　C. the more it could affect your ability to write using traditional language

　　D. the better you will become at shifting between standard grammar and abbreviations

　　7. What do linguists think about Sundar ’ s new finding according to the article?

　　A. Worried.

　　B. Supportive.

　　C. Critical.

　　D. Doubtful.

　　8. With the sample of the questions at the end of the article, the author intends to　.

　　A. get teens to attach more importance to grammar exams

　　B. give some useful tips on how to pass a grammar exam

　　C. get teens to find out how much texting has affected their use of language

　　D. prove that teens’ routine of texting is changing their understanding of basic grammar

　　答案解析

　　Ⅰ. 1.【解析】选D。考查时态和enlarge。句意: 故宫博物馆正在扩大公众参观的面积, 五年后, 所有的行政办公室要搬出去。根据句意和and后面的时态可知, enlarge这一动作现在正在进行或将来会持续。现在进行时表示现在正在进行的动作或将来要进行的动作。故选D。

　　2.【解析】选A。考查介词短语。句意: 当然, 除了语言外, 现在我们和美国一切都相同。这意味着这两种语言非常不同。apart from除去, 除……之外(还有); regardless of不管, 不顾; on account of由于; in terms of就……而言。

　　4.【解析】选B。考查过去分词作状语和remind。句意: 一些司机被提醒不要酒后驾车, 但他们仍然在碰运气, 这是危险的。remind(提醒)和主语some drivers之间是逻辑上的动宾关系, 所以用过去分词reminded。remind sb. not to do sth. 提醒某人不要做某事。

　　【知识拓展】

　　not的位置不同, 意思不同

　　请看下面这道高考题: (2010·四川高考)The lawyer listened with full attention, 　to miss any point.

　　A. not trying B. trying not

　　C. to try not

　　D. not to try

　　从语法角度看, 此处需要动词-ing作伴随状语, 而C、D两项表示意外的结果, 这样A和B都对, 但它们的意思不同。A项表示“不尽力”, B项表示“尽力不”。句意: 律师全神贯注地听, 尽量不漏掉任何一点。根据句意可知选B。

　　由此可知, 做题时, 不仅要分析句子结构还要注意句意, 只有两者结合, 才能选对。

　　A. each controlling B. each controlled

　　C. each to control

　　【解析】选A。考查独立主格结构。根据句子结构可知, 逗号后面不是一个句子, 若是句子, 逗号后面应该有连词and。此处是“代词+动词-ing”形式构成的独立主格结构。each和control之间是主动关系, 且control这一动作正在延续。故选A。each controlling a different region of the country= and each was controlling a different region of the country。

　　12.【解析】选A。考查动词短语。句意: ——我应该怎样处理我的论文, 贾森先生? ——哦, 我说的彼得的论文的情况也适用于你的论文。go for攻击, 喜欢, 适用于; go through穿过, (法案等)通过, 获准; go over复习。

　　7.【解析】选D。观点态度题。第4~8段提到了Sundar的新发现: 收发短信越多, 青少年的英语语法技能越差。而第九段However, linguists aren’t particularly disturbed by the trend, Sundar added. “The linguists will tell you the language is very dynamic. ”可知语言学家对这一趋势并不担心, 因为他们认为语言是动态发展的, 所以可以推知语言学家对Sundar的新发现尚持怀疑态度, 故选D。

　　8.【解析】选C。细节理解题。由倒数第四段“Still, students have exams to worry about. Here’s a sample of the questions, so you can test yourself to see how texting has affected your grammar”可以推知, 作者设计这些问题就是为了让青少年看看收发短信对于他们的语法技能影响有多大, 所以答案为C。
