与学校相关的费用。但我负担不起住房、交通、食物、医疗和其他基本生活必需品。每学期时间越长，做出选择就越困难）"可推知，作者在经济上陷入困境。故选C。9．D主旨大意题。根据第二段“Soon，Istartedworkingattheairportasacleanerofaircraftcabins.Myfirstshiftattheairportwasagraveyardshift,whereIdetailedaircraftofvaryingsizes.Duringthistotalnightshift,Ihavetodo"deepcleaning"，whichmeantcleaningeverythingandevenIhadtocheckeverysafetycompartmentandreplaceanymissingitems.Thiscouldbedisgustingwork.”（我很快开始在机场做飞机客舱清洁工，在机场的第一个班次是夜班，就要清理各种大小的飞机。在整个夜班期间，我必须做“深度清洁”，这意味着清洁所有东西，甚至我必须检查每个安全舱，并更换任何丢失的物品。这可是令人厌恶的工作。）可知这份工作是“劳神费力的”，答案选择D项。10．D推理判断题。根据第三段“Anotherfactupsetmealotthatworkingattheairportandgoingtoschooldidnotiteasilytogether.SomedaysIwastooexhaustedafteranightshifttogettoclass.OtherdaysIdidn'thavetimetocompleteschoolassignmentsowingtoabusyworkday.Attheendofthefallsemester,Ireceivedafinalwarmingformyattendanceatmyjob.Onceagain,Iwasbetweenarockandahardplaceandhadtomakeadecision.Iwantedtogotoschoolandexcel,butIalsohadgrownaccustomedtofinanciallysupportingmyself.（另一个让我很难过的事实是，在机场工作和上学不太容易兼顾。有几天我上了夜班，累得连上课都去不了。另一些日子，由于工作日繁忙，我没有时间完成学校的作业。在秋季学期结束时，我因为出勤率问题收到了最后一次警告。我又一次处于进退两难的境地，不得不做出决定。我想去上学，取得优异成绩，但我也已经习惯了在经济上养活自己）”可推知，作者进退两难是因为学校日程和工作时间不能兼顾，故答案选择D项。11．B推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Ihadputalotintothisjob,evensacrificingmyeducation,andnowIwouldhaveneitherjobnoreducation.I'dfinallylearnedwhatmygrandmothermeantwhensheoncesaidthatyourjobistemporary，andyoureducationisforever.（我为这份工作付出了很多，甚至牺牲了我的教育，现在我将既没有工作也没有教育。我终于明白了我祖母曾经说过的一句话：你的工作是暂时的，而你所受的教育是永远的）”可推知，学校教育的重要性应该得到承认，持久起作用，故答案选择B项。D答案及解析：12．C13．B14．D15．B[语篇解读]这是一篇科技说明文。文章介绍了新科技给人们带来的社会问题及悲观情绪.集中在智能手机和社交媒体上；为避免与新技术相关的短期成本所做的努力最终将导致无法获得其长期利益，称之为“技术陷阱”。作者乐观、客观地分析新技术也可以造福未来。12．C细节理解题。根据第一段的“Socialmediaweresupposedtobringpeopletogether,buttheyarebetterknownforleakingprivacy.E-commerce,ride-hailingandthegigeconomy（零工经济）maybeconvenient，buttheyarechargewithunderpayingworkers,worseninginequalityandblockingthestreetswithvehicles.（社交媒体本应把人们聚在一起，但它们更出名的是泄露隐私。电子商务、打车服务和零工经济可能很方便，但他们被指控付给工人低工资，加剧不平等，及车辆堵塞街道。）”可知答案选择C项。13．B推理判断题。根据第二段的“Today'spessimisticmoodiscenteredonsmartphonesandsocialmedia,whichtookoffadecadeago.Yetconcernsthatparticulartechnologiesmightbedoingmoreharmthangoodhavearisenbefore.The1920switnessedacriticismagainstcars,whichhadearlierbeenseenasananswertotheproblemscausedbyhorse~drawnvehicleswhichfilledthestreetswithnoiseandanimalwasteandcausedaccidents.Andindustrializationwascriticizedinthe19thcenturybyRomanticswhoworriedaboutthereplacementofskilledworkers，therobbingofthecountrysideandthesufferingoffactoryhands.（今天的悲观情绪集中在智能手机和社交媒体上，这两个领域在十年前就开始流行。然而，人们担心某些技术可能弊大于利。20世纪20年代出现了对汽车的批评，这在早期被视为是对马拉车造成的问题的一种解决办法，马拉车充斥着噪音和动物粪便，并引发了事故，工业化在19世纪受到了浪漫主义者的批评，他们担心技术工人的更替，农村的掠夺和工厂工人的痛苦）”可知答案选择B项，14．D推理判断题。根据第三段的“AfurtherdangeristhatLuddite（反对技术进步者）effortstoavoidtheshort-termcostsassociatedwithanewtechnologywillendupdenyingaccesstoitslong-termbenefits－somethingCarlBenediktFrey,anOxfordacademic,callsa“technologytrap”．Fearsthatrobotswinstealpeople'sjobsmaydiscouragetheiruse.（另一个危险是勒德派（反对技术进步者）为避免与新技术相关的短期成本所做的努力最终将导致无法获得其长期利益，牛津大学学者卡尔·贝内迪克特·弗雷（CarlBenediktFrey）称之为"技术陷阱"。人们担心机器人会抢走人们的工作，因此不愿使用它们）”可推断得出“
