Unit 2 Language李仕才一、阅读理解。A new study by the British government has discovered the mental health of the countrys teenage girls has become worse.the survey,which included 30,000 14yearold students in 2005 and 2014,showed 37 percent of girls with psychological stress,up from 34 percent in 2005.British boys stress level was actually seen to fall over the same time period,from 17 percent to 15 percent.The reports authors pointed out the“advent of the social media age”could be a major contributing factor for increased stress among teenage British girls.“The adolescent years are a time of rapid physical,cognitive(认知的)and emotional development,”Pam Ramsden,a lecturer in psychology at the University of Bradford in the United Kingdom,wrote in a recent blog post.“Teenagers interact with people in order to learn how to become competent(有能力的)adults.In the past, they would engage with parents,teachers and other adults in their community as well as extended family members and friends.Now we can also add social media to that list of social and emotional development.”Throughout adolescence,girls and boys develop characteristics like confidence and selfcontrol.Since teenage brains have not completely developed,teens dont have the cognitive awareness and impulse(冲动)control to keep from posting inappropriate content.Furthermore,this content can easily be spread far and wide with disastrous influences.Social media can also feed into girls insecurities about their appearance,Ramsden said.These sites are often filled with images of people with body type unattainable to the normal person.However,these images and the messages tied to them gradually become societal standards.1The statistics in the second paragraph show that _.Amore and more children in Britain have mental health problemsBfew girls in Britain suffered from psychological stress in 2005Cmore boys in Britain are suffering from mental pressure nowDmore British girls feel psychologically stressed than boys do now2Contrary to traditional ways of interaction,social media _.Ahelps teenagers develop qualities like confidence and selfcontrolBhas many negative effects on girls characteristic developmentCmakes teens aware of potential danger of the inappropriate contentDteaches girls to care about their appearance to meet societal standards3The underlined word“advent”in Paragraph 3 can be replaced by“_”Aarrival BendCdisappearance Dinvention【解题导语】一项新研究发现,英国少女的心理健康状况变得更糟;分析表明,社交媒体时代的到来可能是造成英国少女心理压力加大的主要因素。【难句分析】The reports authors pointed out the“advent of the social media age”could be a major contributing factor for increased stress among teenage British girls.分析:该句为主从复合句,句中the“advent of the social media age”could be a major contributing factor for increased stress among teenage British girls为省略了that的宾语从句,作动词短语pointed out 的宾语。译文:报告的作者指出,“社交媒体时代的到来”可能是造成英国少女心理压力增加的主要因素。1D考查推理判断。根据第二段的第一句可知,调查显示,2014年37%的英国少女有心理压力,而2005年只有34%;根据第二段的第二句可知,同期调查显示,英国少年有心理压力的从2005年的17%降到2014年的15%。据此可以判断,英国少女有心理压力的比少年多,故D项正确。2B考查细节理解。根据第五段的最后一句“Furthermore,this content can easily be spread far and wide with disastrous influences”和最后一段第一句的“Social media can also feed into girls insecurities about their appearance”可知,由于青少年的思想还不成熟,自控能力有限,社交媒体对英国少女的心理健康和她们对外表美丑的判断产生了消极的影响。故B项正确。3A考查词义猜测。结合该段内容和下文关于传统交流方式和社交媒体的比较可知,报告的作者指出,“社交媒体时代的到来”可能是造成英国少女心理压力增加的主要因素。据此可知,画线词意为“到来”,故A项正确。二、单项选择1.As we all know, the English language _ the grammar and vocabulary that people from different countries and cultures brought to Britain.A. consists of B. is consisted ofC. makes up of D. makes up【答案】A2.The Google project has caused excitement in Hollywood because film studios are searching for new revenues to _DVD sales, which are in steep decline.

I felt like I was at home and thought how _2_ one can be to feel like this in a place that isnt _3_ your home. I now refer to this town as one of my homes from home and have learnt how home is where your _4_ is.A lot of people get homesick and it is a very _5_ feeling when away from _6_ ones and home comforts. _7_, I have learnt that you can feel at home when you are _8_ in that place with people who _9_ you.Through simply embracing every moment, _10_ friends and enjoying a new _11_, you can feel settled in a short amount of time. I did exactly this when moving to Spain for the first time, as positive thoughts tend to bring positive experiences. Luckily enough, I was _12_ with a host family that were very _13_, which helped to ease the process of feeling happy and settled. I now love visiting when I can to see how the children grow up and feel very blessed by being able to _14_ this.Yet again, I am living in Spain on my year abroad, but this time with students and not a(n) _15_, in a different region. Nonetheless, the process of _16_ had been easier, as I feel _17_ the Spanish culture already. Of course when moving away from home you have to _18_ many things that are different in comparison to what you call home. However, this is the _19_ of travelling, exploring and _20_ yourself and a new place. A new place that one day you might be able to call your home too.1A.leave BplanCmove Dvisit2A.proud BluckyCpopular Dreal3A.finally BpossiblyCcompletely Dnecessarily4A.belief BdreamCheart Djob5A.normal BuniqueCstrong Duneasy6A.similar BunusualCloved Drespected7A.However BThereforeCInstead DOtherwise8A.free BpowerfulCavailable Dcomfortable9A.care for Blook forCask for Dwait for10A.missing BmakingCchoosing Daiding11A.idea BcultureChome Dchance12A.chatting BplayingCliving Ddealing13A.wise BhonestCsuccessful Dfriendly14A.change BexperienceCsupport Dimprove15A.teacher BroommateCfamily Dorganization16A.going on Bturning aroundCstepping forward Dsettling in17A.accustomed to Bexcited atCsatisfied with Dinterested in18A.give up Bstart withCadapt to Dcarry out19A.role BsecretCdelight Dsymbol20A.helping BdiscoveringCenjoying Dcontrolling【解题导语】本文是夹叙夹议文。作者在异国他乡找到了自己的“家”。1D根据最后一段开头的Yet again, I am living in Spain on my year abroad, but this time with students可知,作者重“访(visit)”西班牙。2B根据上文的I felt like I was at home和下文的feel like this可知,在异国他乡能找到家的感觉确实“幸运(lucky)”。3D如果在某个地方“不一定(not necessarily)”就是家能找到家的感觉,那真是幸运。4C根据上文的nice,felt like,feel like可知,作者认识到家就是“心灵(heart)”的归属地。5A根据上文的A lot of people get homesick及常识可知,思乡是一种“正常的(normal)”情感。6C根据上文的homesick可知,一个人远离自己“所爱的(loved)”人和家中的舒适,当然会泛起乡愁。7A下文提到的在异乡也能找到家的感觉与上文意义上发生了转折,故选However。8D9A根据上文的you can feel at home可知,此处意思是,如果在一个地方能与“关爱(care for)”自己的人在一起、觉得比较“舒服(comfortable)”,那自然能找到家的感觉。10B11B根据这两个空所在句中的embracing every moment, enjoying和you can feel settled in a short amount of time可知,如果能珍惜每个瞬间、“交(making)”些朋友、享受新的“文化(culture)”,那很快就能融入当地的生活。12C根据下文的host family可知,“我”与寄宿家庭“生活(living)”在一起。13D根据下文的helped to ease the process of feeling happy and settled可知,寄宿家庭的成员都很“友好(friendly)”。14B根据上文的see how the children grow up可知,能“亲历(experience)”这一过程,作者感到很幸福。15C上文的host family是提示。16D17A因为是第二次来西班牙,所以作者这次“安定(settling in)”下来要比上次更容易些,因为他已经“熟悉(accustomed to)”了当地的文化。18C根据本空所在句中的moving away from home和different in comparison to what you call home可知,背井离乡自然需要“适应(adapt to)”异地不同于家乡的很多方面。19C20B根据However可知,前后表示转折。作者认为虽然需要适应很多新事物,但是这恰巧就是旅游、探索、“发现(discovering)”自我的“乐趣(delight)”所在。四、七选五。4 Key Strategies for Running to Lose WeightAs one of the most active exercises out there, running is an extremely efficient way to burn calories and lose weight.
