【文章內(nèi)容簡(jiǎn)介】
is the name of the baby she lost in her 25 (her way of trying to keep him alive, I guess). Sometimes the passwords were playful. Several people said they used incorrect for theirs so that when they forgot it, the software automatically promoted them with the right one (your password is incorrect). Some passwords were striking for their uniqueness. After reading Sheryl Sandberg39。s book Lean in: Women, Work and the Will to Lead, Cortni Kerr, a running partner of mine, found her role model and began using Wwssdol9, which stood for What would Sheryl Sandberg do plus 19 for the year (2019) of the password39。s creation. TnsitTpsif was the password of another friend, a puter scientist who loves wordplay. It stood for The next sentence is true. The previous sentence is false. For my friend, it was a playful reference to the knots that language can tie. The 4622 that my wife used in her passwords was not just the address of her father39。s childhood home but also a reminder of his strength. Apparently, when the former 120 kg football standout was a small boy, he had to sing his home address (4622 South 28th West Avenue) in one full breath rather than try to say it normally. Otherwise, his stutter (口吃) would embarrass him.(1)Why did the prisoner use his prison ID number in his password? rebuild his reputation. remind him to act legally. fight against his poor memory. hide the unpleasant experience.(2)What did Cortni Kerr think of Sheryl Sandberg39。s book? ....(3)What might be the best title for the text? reasons why people hate passwords. unusual passwords. secret lives of passwords. best ways to make your passwords unique.【答案】 (1)B(2)D(3)C 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說(shuō)明文,介紹了有關(guān)密碼的一些趣事。不同的人設(shè)定密碼也包含著不同的意義,也揭示了一些秘密。 (1)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段中的“There was a former prisoner whose password includes what used to be his prison ID number to constantly tell him not to go back.”可知這名坐過(guò)牢的囚犯用自己的監(jiān)獄身份證號(hào)作為密碼主要是提醒自己不要回到過(guò)去(不在犯罪)。因此選B。 (2)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第四段中的“Cortni Kerr, a running partner of mine, found her role model and began using ‘Wwssdol9’, which stood for ‘What would Sheryl Sandberg do’plus 39。19’ for the year (2019) of the password39。s creation.”可知Cortni Kerr讀完Sheryl Sandberg39。s book的書(shū)后,找到到了自己的榜樣,由此判斷出Cortni Kerr認(rèn)為Sheryl Sandberg的書(shū)很激勵(lì)人心。故選D。 (3)考查主旨大意。通讀全文可知,本文介紹了有關(guān)密碼的一些趣事。不同的人設(shè)定密碼也包含著不同的意義,也揭示了一些秘密。選項(xiàng)C. The secret lives of passwords.“密碼里的人生秘密”為短文的最佳標(biāo)題。故選C。 【點(diǎn)評(píng)】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解,推理判斷和主旨大意三個(gè)題型的考查,是一篇文化類閱讀,要求考生在捕捉細(xì)節(jié)信息的基礎(chǔ)上,進(jìn)一步根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系,進(jìn)行分析,推理,概括和歸納,從而選出正確答案。5.閱讀理解 They had a dozen children, six boys and six girls, in seventeen years. One reason Dad had so many children was that he was confident anything he and Mother teamed upon was sure to be a success. Our house at Montclair, New Jersey, was a sort of school for scientific management and the removal of wasted motions — or “motion study,” as Dad and Mother named it. Dad took moving pictures of us children washing dishes, so that he could determine how we could reduce our motions and thus hurry through the task. Each child who wanted extra pocket money put forward an offer saying what he would do the job for. The lowest bidder got the contract(合約). Dad put process and work charts in the bathrooms. Every child old enough to write — and Dad expected his children to start writing at a young age — was required to sign their names on the charts in the morning after he had brushed his teeth, taken a bath, bed his hair, and made his bed. At night, each child had to weigh himself, mark the figure on a graph, and sign the process charts again after he had done his homework, washed his hands and face, and brushed his teeth. Mother wanted to have a place on the charts for saying prayers, but Dad said as far as he was concerned prayers were voluntary. It was strict management, all right. Yes, at home or on the job, Dad was always the efficiency expert. He buttoned his vest from the bottom up, instead of from the top down, because the bottomtotop process took him only three seconds, while the toptobottom took seven. He even used two shaving brushes to make his face smooth enough, because he found that by so doing he could cut seventeen seconds off his shaving time. For a while he tried shaving with two razors, but he finally gave that up. “I can save fortyfour seconds,” he plained, “but I wasted two minutes this morning putting this bandage on my throat.” It wasn39。t the injured throat that really bothered him. It was the two minutes.(1)Why was the author39。s house considered a sort of school?
