“Y2Kbug”orthe“millenniumbug”.(他们担心新千年的开始会带来灾难。在2000年1月1日之前，报纸和电视节目经常谈论一种被称为“Y2K漏洞”或“千年虫”的东西。)”可知，此处需要一个句子来引出人们对2000年新千年到来的担忧，与上文的普遍认知形成对比。D项“But25yearsago,manypeoplebecameworried.(但25年前，许多人开始担心。)”，25年前即指2000年之前，引出了下文人们的担忧，符合语境。故选D项。【17题详析】根据上文“Thiswasbecausemanycomputersusedjusttwodigitstorecordtheyear.(这是因为许多计算机只用两位数字来记录年份。)”可知，此处应进一步说明这种记录年份方式的具体情况。C项“So,1988wasjust“88”and1999was“99”.(所以，1988年就记为“88”，1999年就记为“99”。)”，具体举例说明了用两位数字记录年份的方式，符合语境。故选C项。【18题详析】根据上文“Somepeoplethoughtthiscouldmeanthatlightswouldgooutacrosstheworldascomputersfailed.(一些人认为这可能意味着随着计算机故障，全世界的灯光都会熄灭。)”可知，此处应继续列举人们认为可能因计算机故障而出现的问题。G项“Perhapssoftwareatbanks,airportsandhospitalswouldstopworkingtoo.(也许银行、机场和医院的软件也会停止工作。)”与上文一样，都是人们对计算机故障可能导致的严重后果的猜测。故选G项。【19题详析】根据上文“Mostoftheproblemswerequitesmall.(大多数问题都相当小。)”以及下文“InIshikawa,Japan,someequipmentfailedatanuclearfacility—althoughbackupsystemsmadesuretherewasnodanger.Andagroupofover150pregnantwomenintheUKweregivenwronginformationabouttheirbabies'healthbecausetheirhospitals'computersystemsgottheirbirthdateswrong.(在日本石川，一个核设施的一些设备出现了故障——尽管备用系统确保没有危险。英国一群150多名孕妇因为医院的计算机系统弄错了她们的出生日期，而得到了关于她们婴儿健康的错误信息。)”可知，此处需要一个句子来引出下文一些较为严重的问题，与上文的“小问题”形成对比。A项“Butsomewerebigger.(但有些问题更严重。)”，起到了承上启下的作用，符合逻辑。故选A项。【20题详析】根据上文“Butsomepeoplesaidtheworries—andallthatmoney—hadbeenfornothing.(但有些人说，这些担忧——以及所有那些钱——都白费了。)”以及下文“Theysaidthosemonthsofplanninghelpedavoidbigproblems.Andtheyexpressedconcernthatourrelianceontechnologywouldmakeusvulnerable(易受伤害的)tosimilarproblemsinthefuture.(他们说，那几个月的规划帮助避免了大问题。他们还表示担心，我们对技术的依赖会使我们在未来容易受到类似问题的影响。)”可知，此处需要一个句子来引出与上文不同的观点。B项“Manyexpertsdidn'tagree.(许多专家不同意。)”，引出了下文专家们认为规划起到了作用的观点，与上文一些人的看法形成对比。故选B项。第三部分语言运用(共两节，满分30分)第一节(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分)阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。MyfamilyrecentlymovedfromAmericatoItaly.Wewereenjoyingthis____21____toexplorethegreatoutdoorsonanewcontinent.First,myhusbandandIwenthikinginanationalpark.Wecoulddrivethroughtheparkbutcouldfindnowayto____22____thecarandwalkintoit.Forus,thisfeltvery____23____.Next,myolderdaughterandIorganizedabackpackingtriptoParcoNozionaled'Abruzzo,justafewhoursoutsideofRome.Wewere____24____tolearnthereisnocampinginthepark.Theonlywayto____25____intheparkisatamountainhut(小屋).Mostvisitorstotheparkhireguides.Guideshelpthemexplorethetrails,describetheecologyofthearea,and____26____wildlifeviewing.Wedidnothireaguide,whichwasrespectedbytheguides,buttotally____27____tomanyofthelocals.Iviewedhikingwithaguideasan____28____ofpoorwildernessskills.But,throughconversationswithotherhikersandguests,Icameto____29____thewaymanyItalians______30______visitingthepark.Theycametolearnandseebeautybutnotnecessarilytobe______31______andtofeelthethrill(刺激)ofindependently______32______innature.Thisexperiencegavemetheopportunitytolearnaboutother______33______ofoutdoorexploration.Iwouldneverwantto______34______campingandhiking“myway”,butIamwillingtotryanewway,evenwitha______35______.21.A.activity
