7、anything.【语篇解读】媒体为了达到某一目的,往往会误导人们,其负面影响很大,因此人们对媒体所传达的信息要进行理智的思考和判断,绝不能盲目相信。1Howdoesthemediaaffectpeopleshealth?AItmisshapespeoplesconceptofbeauty.BItdisturbspeoplessleepingroutines.CItmakespeopleaddictedtojunkfood.DItraisespeoplesawarenessofexercise.A考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“Themediainfluencespublicopinionsan
8、dimpactsthechoicesthatpeoplemake.Themediahasledtoageneralopinionthatthinisinandfatisout.”可知,媒体影响公众的观点以及人们所做出的选择,媒体导致公众认为“瘦是时尚,胖是落伍”,这使得肥胖的人觉得自己格格不入,于是他们准备饿肚子来减肥,从而导致饮食紊乱。由此可知,媒体会使人们形成有关美的错误观念。故选A。2Whichwordcanreplacetheunderlinedpart“filterout”inParagraph2?AAccept.BConvey.CRemove.DInterpret.C考查词义猜测。
9、根据文章第二段中的“Withtheintentionofstressingtheirpointsorgrabbinggreaterattentionfromthemasses,themediaexaggerates(夸大)thingstoacertaindegree.”和“Mostbelieveeverythingtobereal,especiallykidsandteenagers.”可知,为了强调他们的观点或是吸引大众更多的关注,媒体会在一定程度上夸大事物,而不是每个人都能够过滤掉“夸张”这种因素的影响。大部分人认为一切都是真的,尤其是孩子和青少年。由此可推知画线部分的意思是“过滤掉,去除
10、”,与remove的意思相近。故选C。3WhatmessagedoestheauthorconveyinParagraph3?AMorehaste,lessspeed.BEverycoinhastwosides.CAwatchedpotneverboils.DLearntowalkbeforeyourun.B考查推理判断。根据第三段中的“whileacertainamountofexposuretothemediaisessentialforintroducingourselvestotheworldoutside,excessiveexposure,uncontrolledaccessand
11、beliefwithoutthoughtwontleadusanywhere.Theywillonlymakethenegativeeffectsofthemediamoreobvious.”可知,适度接触媒体对我们了解外面的世界是完全必要的,但过多的、毫无节制的接触对我们则无益处,会对我们产生消极的影响。由此可知,B项“事物都有两面性”符合题意。4Whatdoestheauthoradvisepeopletodointhelastparagraph?ALimittheirexposuretothemedia.BDontbetoocuriousaboutthingsaround.CDevelo
12、ptheirselfconfidenceandselfcontrol.DUsetheirownjudgmentproperlyinfaceofthemedia.D考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的“Theonlywaytoprotectyourselffromthemistonotallowthemtoinfluenceyou.Donttakemediadescriptionsattheirword.Dontbelieveinthemwithoutthinking.Thinktwicebeforefollowingorfallingforanything.”可知,作者建议人们不要被媒体的描述欺骗,
13、不要盲目相信媒体所报道的,要有自己的判断,也就是说人们在媒体(信息)面前,要恰当运用自己的判断力。故选D。.阅读七选五(2017年陕西省高三教学质量检测)HowtoChooseaTopicforYourPaperNomatterwhatresearchpaperyouwrite,thefirstandmostimportantstepistochoosethetopic.1Herearesometipsforyoutofollow.Tochooseagoodtopic,youllhavetoaskyourselfsomeimportantquestions.Isthereenoughresea

18、c”可推知,此处应表示“可是很多学生在第一步就受挫”,所以选D项。2F根据下文的“Writingaboutsomethingyouenjoycertainlyshowsinthefinalproduct,makingitmorelikelythatyouwillbesuccessfulinwritingapaperaboutsomethingyouenjoy.”可知,本段主要讲要对自己的选题有兴趣,这样才有可能写好,所以选F项。3C根据上文的“considertheotherstudents”及下文的“Howcanyoukeepyourpaperuniqueandinterestingifev
19、eryoneiswritingaboutthesamething?”可知,论文选题要考虑到其他学生是否也会选同一话题,所以选C项。4G根据上文的“Askyourprofessororclassmatesforadvice,ifyourestrugglingtocomeupwitharighttopic.”可推知,老师或同学可能会给你一些好的建议,所以选G项。5B根据上文的“itisnttherightdecision”及下文的“changingyourtopicwillmakeyourwritingmoreefficient”可知,发现选题不合适时要有足够的勇气去替换它,所以选B项。【导学号:

23、谷的夜市TrainNightMarketRatchada。1providing考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,此处应用非谓语动词;provide与其逻辑主语stalls之间为主谓关系,故用现在分词短语作状语。2which考查定语从句。先行词是Theshelter,空处引导非限制性定语从句,且在从句中作主语,故用which。3attraction考查词性转换。根据空前的an可知,此处应填名词attraction“游览胜地,具有吸引力的事物”。4iscalled考查时态和语态。定语从句说的是现在的客观事实,应该用一般现在时;which(指代Themarket)与call之间是动宾关系,故用被动语
24、态。5a考查冠词。spot表示“地点”,是可数名词,且此处为泛指,故填不定冠词a。6colo(u)rful考查词性转换。根据语境可知,此处指的是“颜色鲜艳的,五彩缤纷的”,故填colo(u)rful。7primarily考查词性转换。此处修饰谓语动词,应该用副词,故填primarily。8collections考查名词复数。空前无冠词或者形容词性物主代词,加之collection“收藏物,收藏品”是可数名词,故填collections。9like考查介词。like意为“像,如”,用来列举事物。10performed考查非谓语动词。此处是“with宾语宾补”复合结构。宾语music和perfor
25、m之间是逻辑上的被动关系,故用过去分词作宾补。.短文改错(2017年湖南十三校第一次联考)MyneighborJackieisalwaysconsiderationtoothers.Oneday,IwasgoingtodeliveraspeechataninstitutewhileIfoundmycarwouldntgetstarting.Irushedtothestreettohireataxi.Justatthattime,IcomeacrossJackie.Hewashurriedgoingtoattendhissickmotherinhospital.Furthermore,whenh

28、siderate考查形容词。系动词be后应接形容词作表语,beconsideratetosb.意为“对某人体贴”。故将consideration改为considerate。第二处:whilewhen考查连词。wasdoing.when.是固定句式,when作连词,意为“就在这时;突然”。故将while改为when。第三处:startingstarted考查非谓语。get在句中是系动词,主语与动词start之间是被动关系,要用被动形式,故将starting改为started。第四处:comecame考查时态。根据上下文可知,本文描述的是发生在过去的事情,应用一般过去时。故将come改为came。第五处:hurriedhurriedly考查副词。修饰going
