三、阅读理解
It’s interesting that technology often works as a servant for us,yet frequently we become a servant to it.Email is a useful tool but many feel controlled by this new tool.The average business person is getting about 80 emails per day and many feel that about 80% of the messages in their box are of little or no value.
So,I have four suggestions to help you to become better at “Erasing Email”.
1.get off the lists The best way to deal with a problem is to never have it.If you are receiving a lot of unwanted emails,ask to be removed from the various lists.This would include your inclusion in unwanted lists.
2.“unlisted address” Just as you keep an unlisted telephone number that you share only with those whom you want to have direct access to,you might want to get a separate email address only for the important communications you wish to receive.
3.check it once or twice per day Many I speak with are becoming chained to their email server,monitoring incoming email continuously.Maybe this is because email creates its own sense of urgency,but most of the communications are not all that urgent.I respond to them a couple of times per day.
4.deal with it As you open each email,do one of the following:
a.If it requires a quick response,respond to it and delete it.
b.If it requires a response but is not the best use of your time,try to find someone else to do it.
c.If it is going to take any serious amount of time to respond,schedule it for action in your day planner and then download the message,save it,or print it out for future action.
I personally receive about 250 emails per day and by practising the suggestions above,I can handle that volume in about an hour,taking advantage of this fantastic tool but not being controlled by it to make sure I?m doing more important tasks in my day.
1.If you get unwanted emails,the best you can do is to .
A.make a list of them
B.put them into unwanted lists
C.send them to a special address
D.ask to be deleted from different lists
2.For the important communications,the writer suggests that you .
A.have a direct access for them
B.have several email servers for them
C.get a separate email address for them
D.get an unlisted phone number for them
3.To avoid being chained by the incoming emails,what you can do is to .
A.respond urgent ones only
B.reply to all of them at the same time
C.handle them a couple of times daily
D.keep replying to emails all day long
4.To deal with an email you get,you can do the following except .
A.responding right away if it’s urgent
B.downloading every email before you reply
C.scheduling it for later reply if it takes much time
D.asking someone else to reply to it if it’s not at your convenience

一、单句填空
1.frequently 句意:在你开始大量识记词汇时,重要的是要经常去使用词汇。考查副词。frequently意为“时常;经常”,是frequent的副词形式。
2.with 句意:——丹尼斯的工作进展得如何?——很好,他总能想到增加销售量的新想法。考查动词短语。come up with 提出,想出。
3.compared 句意:你考虑过跟火山、飓风、地震相比,人类是多么脆弱吗?考查非谓语动词。compared with“和……相比”,表示被动,符合题意。
4.designed 句意:这些旨在让老年人和年轻人聚在一起的项目,在2017年将会在全世界普及。考查非谓语动词。programmes与design之间为逻辑上的被动关系,故用过去分词,相当于定语从句which are designed...。
5.it 句意:你的微笑就是使你结识新人成为可能的最强有力的工具之一。it作形式宾语,而to meet new people为真正的宾语。
6.contains;including 句意:水果中含有多种维生素,其中就包括维生素C。考查动词。主语fruit是不可数名词,谓语动词应该用单数形式;第二个空是非谓语动词作状语,与逻辑主语之间是主动关系,应该用including。
7.used to 句意:开始的时候英国的食物让人感到很奇怪,但是很快你就会适应它。考察固定搭配。get used to意为:习惯,适应;其中to是介词。
8.to kill 句意:她好像更喜欢在家看电视来打发她的空闲时间。分析句子结构可知此题考查动词不定式短语作目的状语。
9.to enter 句意:只有那些持有门票的人才被允许进入体育馆听周杰伦的音乐会,因此他的很多歌迷被拒之门外。考查permit sb.to do sth.的被动形式sb.be permitted to do sth.。
10.consists of 句意:我们学校由60个班级组成,它以美丽而闻名。考查动词短语。空格处是句子的谓语动词,主语our school是单数形式,应该用固定搭配consists of。
二、语法填空
[语篇解读] 从前有个“傻瓜”叫Hugh,靠村民的救济生活,后来富裕了,他不忘本回报了帮助过他的人。
1.in 考查介词。live in意为“居住”。live in的宾语为a small old house。
2.wearing 考查非谓语动词。wearing a brand new suit 为现在分词短语作伴随状语。
3.amazed 考查词性转换。根据空格前的was可知此处应用形容词作表语,故填amazed表示“感到惊奇的”。
4.have stolen 考查情态动词表推测。must have done表示推测:过去一定做了某事。句意:其中一个村民问Hugh他从哪里弄来的新衣服,心想一定是他偷来的。
5.that/which 考查定语从句。此句中含有定语从句,先行词是the fine new house,故用that或which引导定语从句。
6.his 考查代词。根据上下文的意思可以推出那个新建的房子是他的。his指代his house。
7.When/After 考查时间状语从句。questioned where he got the money前省略了he was,结合句意可知,应用When/After。
8.with 考查with复合结构。with+宾语+宾语补足语,在句中作状语。
9.simply 考查副词。句中的save为动词,应该用副词修饰。
10.who 考查定语从句。空格处引导定语从句,先行词为those指代人,故用who引导定语从句。
三、阅读理解
1.D 细节理解题。根据所给出的4条建议中的第一条中的描述可知处理不想要的电子邮件的最好的办法就是to be removed from the various lists,由此可知答案为D项:要求从这些名单中被删除。
2.C 细节理解题。根据所给建议的第二条中的get a separate email address only for the important可知作者建议给那些重要的电子邮件一个单独的邮件地址,故选C项。
3.C 细节理解题。根据所给建议的第三条中的respond to them a couple of times per day可知作者建议为了避免被电子邮件缠住,每天只处理几次,故选C项。
4.B 细节理解题。文章中分别提到了面对此事我们应该怎么做,A、C、D都是作者提出的建议,只有B项:在回复每一封邮件前要把它下载下来,这与作者意思相反。
四、短文改错
1.第一句中的will去掉 考查时态。if条件从句中用一般现在时代替将来时。
2.第一句中的healthy前加a 考查冠词。“一种健康的生活方式”,应该说成a healthy lifestyle。
3.第二句中的advices改为advice 考查名词。advice“建议”,为不可数名词。
4.第三句中的Like改为As 考查介词。as在此用作介词,意思是“作为”;like作介词,意为“像”。
5.第三句中的but改为and 考查行文逻辑。前后两个分句在逻辑上为顺承关系,不存在转折的意思,所以用and。
6.第四句中的that改为which 考查定语从句。that不可以引导非限制性定语从句。which可以引导非限制性定语从句,并在此定语从句中充当主语。
7.第五句中的Do改为Doing 考查非谓语动词。Doing more exercise为动名词短语作主语。
8.第五句中的eating改为eat 考查非谓语动词。remember to do sth.意思是“记着去做某事”;remember doing sth.意思是“记得做过某事”。根据句意可知此处表示“记得去做某事”,故用动词不定式形式。
9.第七句中的our改为your 考查代词。本文都是围绕you展开的,所以用其形容词性物主代词your。
10.第八句中的happily改为happy 考查形容词。stay意思是“保持”,为连系动词,后面接形容词作表语。
