its own way, changed peoples outlook on life.it is the interface (界面) through which millions look at the world outside. the media claims to describe the “today”， but not all types of media show the truth. with the intention of stressing their point or grabbing greater attention from the masses, the media exaggerates (夸大) things to a certain degree.not everyone is able to filter_out that element.most believe everything to be real, especially kids and teenagers.media sources are so many in number and all of them so convincingly make their point that it is hard to distinguish between right and wrong.thus while a certain amount of exposure to the media is essential for introducing ourselves to the world outside, excessive exposure, uncontrolled access and belief without thought

media influences public opinion and impacts the choices that people make.the media has led to a general opinion that thin is in and fat is out .”可知，媒体影响公众的观点以及人们所作出的选择，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。6which word can replace the underlined part “filter out” in paragraph 2?aaccept. bconvey.cremove. dinterpret.解析：选c词义猜测题。根据文章第二段中的“with the intention of stressing their point or grabbing greater attention from the masses, the media exaggerates (夸大) things to a certain degree.”“most believe everything to be real, especially kids and teenagers”可知，为了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去除“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”，与remove的意思相近。故选c。7what message does the author convey in paragraph 3?amore haste, less speed.bevery coin has two sides.ca watched pot never boils.dlearn to walk before you run.解析：选b推理判断题。根据第三段中的“while a certain amount of exposure to the media is essential . they will only make the negative effect of the media more obvious”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。a项意为“欲速则不达”；c项意为“心急水不开，心急吃不了热豆腐”；d项意为“先学走再学跑，循序渐进。”8what does the author advise people to do in the last paragraph?alimit their exposure to the media.bdont be too curious about things around.cdevelop their selfconfidence and selfcontrol.duse their own judgment properly in face of the media.解析：选d推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“the only way to protect yourself from them is to not allow them to influence you . think twice before following or falling for anything”可知，作者建议人们不要被媒体的描述所欺骗，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。故选d。c(2018湖北省武汉市部分中学模拟)every february “oscar fever” hits the entertainment community and film fans around the world, with

norcombe hill. the sky was so clear and the stars were so visible that the earth could almost be seen turning. in that cold, hard air the sweet notes of the flute rang out. the music came from a little hut on wheels, standing in the corner of a field. shepherds huts like this are used as a shelter during the winter and spring, when shepherds have to stay out all night in the fields, looking after very young lambs.gabriels two hundred and fifty sheep were not yet paid for. he knew that. in order to make a success of the farming business, he had to make sure they produced a large number of healthy lambs. so he was determined to spend as many nights as necessary in the fields, to save his lambs from dying of cold or hunger.the hut was warm and quite comfortable inside. there was a stove, and some bread and beer on a shelf. on each side of the hut was a round hole like a window, which could be closed with a piece of wood. these air holes were usually kept open when the stove was burning, because too much smoke in a small, airless hut could kill the shepherd.from time to time the sound of the flute stopped, and gabriel came out of his hut to check his sheep. whenever he discovered a halfdead new lamb, he brought the creature into the hut. in front of the stove it soon came back to life, and then he could return it to its mother.he noticed a light further down the hill. it came from a wooden hut at the edge of a field. he walked down to it and put his eye to a hole in the wood. inside, two women were feeding a sick cow. one of the women was middleaged. the other was young and wore a cloak. gabriel recognized the girl, who owed him two pence.语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文，选自小说远离尘嚣，讲述了牧羊人gabriel在严冬的夜晚保护羊羔免受饥饿和寒冷而死的经历。12the meaning of the underlined word “shepherds” can be
