9、【解题导语】本文是一篇议论文，主要讨论了如今在智能手机时代，人们应该选择何种方式进行沟通。【难句分析】Heres hoping that politeness never goes out of fashion but that timewasting forms of communication do.分析：本句是一个复合句。两个 that引导宾语从句，在从句中不作句子成分。译文：希望礼貌永远不会过时，但是浪费时间的沟通方式会过时。1C 考查词义猜测。根据第五段第二句的“he called my sister to express his dissatisfaction that I nev
10、er returned his phone calls”可知，作者的父亲对作者不给自己回电话很不满，由此可推知 exasperated意思是“恼怒的，生气的” ，故选 C。2A 考查推理判断。根据第五段中的“Why are you leaving him voice mail？my sister asked.Just text him.”可推知，作者不喜欢用语音信箱，更偏爱发短信，故选 A。3B 考查推理判断。根据第七段的内容可推知，标准是变化的，处理方式应该因人而异，而不是一刀切，语音信箱的使用亦是如此，故选 B。A 项错在传统社会中的人们不需要向他人学习，这与最后一段第一句“The ant
11、hropologist(人类学家)Margaret Mead once said that in traditional societies，the young learn from the old”相悖；C 项错在人们有麻烦不需要借助 Google，这与第六段的内容不符；D 项错在在短信里表明你是谁或问好是有必要的，这与第四段第一句“In texts, you dont have to declare who you are or even say hello”相悖，故排除。4C 考查标题判断。根据对文章内容的整体理解可知，第三段引入本文话题，最后两段点题总结，本文主要讨论的是如今(在智能手
12、机时代)我们应该用何种方式沟通，故选 C项。A项错在只提及了现在我们应该如何应对短信，这忽略了文章中有关语音信息的内容，有以3偏概全之嫌；B 项错在只提及了你是否喜欢留语音信息给他人，这也只是文章的一部分，而非全部；D 项错在现在是否需要留感谢信息，这只是文章中提到的一小部分内容，而非文章主旨，故排除。二、阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容(1 个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。(2017银川检测)From Monday to Friday, most people are busy working or studying, but in the evenings and on weekend

16、are time simply for fun.The value in dollars is not important.We do it for the pleasure it gives.【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了不同的人有着不同的爱好，不管是什么爱好，不管是否值钱，只要能带来快乐，就可以去做。61themselves 解析：考查代词。固定搭配 enjoy oneself意为“玩得愉快” ，主语是 they，所以应用其反身代词 themselves。62or 解析：考查连词。此处表示选择，即有些人去看电视或去看电影。故填 or。63to spend 解析：考查非谓语动词。
17、名词 way后通常接动词不定式作后置定语，指“的方法” 。故填 to spend。64making 解析：考查非谓语动词。from.to.意为“从到” ，连接对等成分，根据 collecting stamps可知，to 后接动名词。故填 making。65but/while 解析：考查连词。根据语境可知，有些爱好是昂贵的，而有些爱好根本不花费任何东西。前后句表示转折或对比。故填 but/while。466collections 解析：考查词性转换和名词的复数。分析句子成分可知，谓语动词are之前的主语应是复数名词，collect 的名词形式为 collection，是可数名词。故填collec
18、tions。67a 解析：考查冠词。此处名词 man表示泛指，且读音以辅音音素开头，所以用不定冠词 a。68thought 解析：考查动词的时态。连词 and连接两个并列的谓语动词，根据前半句中的谓语动词 was可知，此处应用一般过去时。故填 thought。69extremely 解析：考查词性转换。此处应用副词 extremely修饰形容词valuable。故填 extremely。70happier 解析：考查形容词的比较级。根据连词 than可知，此处形容词应用其比较级形式。故填 happier。三、短文改错。假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共
19、有 10处语言错误，每句中最多有两处。每处错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。增加：在缺词处加一个漏字符号()，并在其下面写出该加的词。删除：把多余的词用斜线()划掉。修改：在错的词下画一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词。注意：1.每处错误及其修改均仅限一词；2只允许修改 10处，多者(从第 11处起)不计分。Hi Eva，Sorry that I havent been in the touch for a while.But I catch a cold last week, and Ive been in bed for four day.Im feeling better today
