【文章內(nèi)容簡(jiǎn)介】 60。D.wellbased（5）What is the real concern of the writer of this article? A.The major causes of traffic accidents and car thefts.B.The human unawareness of technical problems.C.The shortings of digital devices we use.D.The relationship between humans and technology.【答案】 （1）D（2）C（3）B（4）A（5）D 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇夾敘夾議文，作者講述了一起交通事故，司機(jī)沒有看到火車路口導(dǎo)致了一起事故，司機(jī)卻將責(zé)任歸咎到自己的導(dǎo)航儀沒有路口提示上。引發(fā)作者對(duì)于人與科技的關(guān)系上的深思。 （1）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段中的Ceely39。s near miss made the news because she blamed it on he GPS(導(dǎo)航儀). 可知Ceely認(rèn)為事故發(fā)生的原因是GPS沒有指出那個(gè)路口。故選D。 （2）考查詞義猜測(cè)。根據(jù)第一段可知Ceely的車被卡在鐵路上并且被火車撞飛了，而她自己則死里逃生，文章用near miss來形容這個(gè)事故，由此可推斷narrow escape 最符合文意，即Ceely很驚險(xiǎn)地逃生了，故選C。 （3）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第三段中的We put our faith in digital devices, he says, but our digital helpers are too often not up to the job. 可知Stevenson認(rèn)為是科技設(shè)備應(yīng)該被指責(zé)，即它們不能滿足人們的需要，故選B。 （4）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第四段中的 The problem with his argument in the book is that it39。s not clear why he only focuses on digital technology, while there may be a number of other possible causes. 可知作者認(rèn)為Stevenson只關(guān)注到了片面的，故選A。 （5）考查主旨大意。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中的The game between humans and their smart devices is amusing and plex. 可知作者在討論完Ceely這起事故后，在最后兩段將討論延伸到了人與科技的關(guān)系上，因此作者實(shí)際關(guān)心的內(nèi)容是人與科技的關(guān)系，故選D。 【點(diǎn)評(píng)】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解，詞義猜測(cè)和主旨大意三個(gè)題型的考查，是一篇人生感悟類閱讀，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。4．Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. After I was married and had lived in Japan for while, my Japanese gradually improved to the point where I could take part in simple conversations with my husband and his friends and family. And I began to notice that often, when I joined in, the others would look surprised, and the conversational topic would e to a stop. After this happened several times, it became clear to me that I was doing something wrong. But for a long time, I didn39。t know what it was. Finally, after listening carefully to many Japanese conversations, I discovered what my problem was. Even though I was speaking Japanese, I was handling the conversation in a Western way. A Westernstyle conversation between two people is like a game of tennis. If I introduce a topic, a conversational ball, I expect you to hit it back. If you agree with me, I don39。t expect you simply to agree and do nothing more. I expect you to add somethinga reason for agreeing, another example, or a detailed explanation to carry the idea further. But I don39。t expect you always to agree. I am just as happy if you question me, or challenge me, or pletely disagree with me. Whether you agree or disagree, your response will return the ball to me. A Japanesestyle conversation, however, is not at all like tennis or volleyball. It39。s like bowling. You wait for your turn. And you always know your place in line. It depends on such things as whether you are older or younger, a close friend or a relative stranger to the previous speaker, in a senior or junior position, and so on. When your turn es, you step up to the starting line with your bowling ball and carefully bowl it. Everyone else stands back and watches politely, murmuring encouragement. Everyone waits until the ball has reached the end of the alley（球場(chǎng)）and watches to see if it knocks down all the pins, or only some of them, or none of them. There is a pause, while everyone registers your score. Then, after everyone is sure that you have pletely finished your turn, the next person in line steps up to the same starting line, with a different ball. He doesn39。t return your ball, and he does not begin from where your ball stopped. And there is always a suitable pause between turns. There is no rush, no scramble for the ball. If you have been trained all your life to play one game, it is no simple matter to switch to another, even if you know the rules. Knowing the rules is not at all the same thing as playing the game.（1）The author makes all of the following arguments EXCEPT that _____.

Two of our grandchildren were able to join us. Having precelebrated my Father39。s Day and it being on our minds, my wife asked this question only this morning: Do you remember anything about your father? While this subject had e up before, however, the question had not been put so bluntly(直率的). I answered No. My only memory is of the few photos outside. You see, my father died when I was only four years old. Many people have lost their father early in life and it is easy to feel somewhat sorry for having to deal with such a situation, especially whe
