　　二、阅读理解

　　A

　　Parties and social gatherings no longer excite us the same way they once did. This is not due to a lack of desire to socialize, but the smartphone.

　　At parties, more people are on their smartphones than on their drinks. According to a recent International Data Corporation study, well over half of all Americans have a smartphone and reach for it the moment they wake up, keeping it in hand all day. In addition, too many people in society are using smartphones while driving and as a result, they get into car crashes. 34 percent of teenagers admit to texting while driving, and they confirm that text messaging is their number one driving interruption. People's attachment to their smartphones is unbelievably becoming more important than the

　　lives of themselves and others.

　　Just as drivers dismiss the importance of focusing while on the road, many people also fail to recognize the significance of human interaction. When with their friends, some people pointlessly check or send text messages in the presence of a friend, which sends a message to that friend: the person I am

　　texting is more important than you.

　　In addition, relying on our smartphones to make friends does not give us the same advantage as being able to make new friendships in the real world. Face­to­face conversations will give us much stronger

　　communication skills in the long run.

　　As many people risk their lives and the lives of people around them just to send a text or mindlessly check their messages, smartphones are in many ways more dangerous to people. The quality of this technology is hindering social achievements and weakening the value of communication. Not only is the smartphone affecting our desire to interact (交流) face­to­face, but it is also lowering society's ability to communicate.

　　这是一篇议论文。本文讲述了人们在参加聚会、开车的时候，也在用手机发短信，这极大地影响了人与人之间的交流，甚至导致事故的发生。

　　1．The purpose of this text is to

　　.

　　A.call for an end to use the smartphone while driving

　　B. appeal to us to pay attention to communication skills

　　C.express a concern about the overuse of the smartphone

　　D.advise us to be cautious about the addiction to the smartphone

　　答案　C

　　解析　主旨大意题。全文通过描述人们在社交或开车的时候埋头玩智能手机的现象，指出了这一现象背后值得思考的话题：智能手机的过度使用已影响到了人们的日常生活和交流。作者对此表示担忧，因此选C。

　　2．The second paragraph is developed by

　　.

　　A. giving examples

　　B. listing figures

　　C. comparing facts

　　D. analyzing the effects

　　答案　A

　　解析　写作手法题。第二段讲述了人们使用智能手机的情况，比如聚会上、开车时，并提到了开车时使用手机发短信的青少年的比重，因此该段是通过举例子来阐述其观点的。

　　3．The author advocates us to make new friends

　　.

　　A. by using smartphones

　　B. in a face­to­face way

　　C. in different ways

　　D. under a free circumstance

　　答案　B

　　解析　细节理解题。根据第三段的最后两句话“In addition, relying on our smartphones to make friends does not give us the same advantage as being able to make new friendships in the real world. Face­to­face conversations will give us much stronger communication skills in the long run”可知，作者提倡面对面交朋友，而不是通过手机，因此选B。

　　4．Over­dependence on the smartphone leads to the fact that

　　.

　　A. parties and gatherings limit their social circle

　　B. people are more and more narrow­minded

　　C. people's communication skills are weakened

　　D. face­to­face communication becomes less important

　　答案　C

　　解析　细节理解题。由最后一段中的“The quality of this technology is hindering social achievements and weakening the value of communication”可知，对手机过于依赖会削弱交流的价值，因此选C。

　　B

　　1

　　of Palo Duro Canyon(峡谷) State Park, I

　　2

　　a job advertisement hiring park hosts. The position offered a

　　3

　　， permanent campsite in the park and

　　4

　　， the hosts served as a link between the park's guests and the rangers(护林人). It was the perfect solution: a rent－free place to reorganize our lives. We entered the park and I made an

　　5

　　for the following day.

　　The park was

　　6

　　， so it took us some time to find an available site. That evening, as we finished our dinner, my wife saw two large skunks (臭鼬) walking toward our table. We

　　7

　　climbed onto the table and, for the next four hours, waited for them to

　　8

　　our camp.

　　Having survived that night, we were

　　9

　　that everything else would be all right. The next day we met with the people who ran the park. They explained our

　　10

　　and gave us a beautiful campsite.

　　That evening,

　　11

　　， we learned about the canyon

　　12

　　. They were strong and cold, rocking our little camping truck violently, and we lay

　　13

　　in the dark until the winds died away.

　　14

　　the weeks that followed, we learned to survive in our truck and
