一、用所给词的适当形式填空1.hadbeenput2.hadbeenmoved3.hadbeendismissed4.hadbeenexposed5.hadbeentrapped二、完成句子1.hadbeenputforward2.hadbeenleftout3.hadbeenadmitted4.hadbeenhit三、阅读理解1.A。细节理解题。根据第二段第一句可知,金基俊博士说:“我们的研究结果表明,用户将智能手机视为他们的自我延伸,并依附于这些设备。”由此可知,金基俊博士认为手机已经成为一些用户的一部分。故选A。2.B。细节理解题。根据最后一段中的第二、三句可知,对于“屏幕族”来说,“社交控”最容易造成分离焦虑。如果他们无法看到Snapchat或Instagram上发生的事情,他们会因为不知道社会上发生了什么而感到恐慌。由此可知,格里菲思认为,我们之所以患上“无手机恐惧症”,是因为我们担心可能会错过朋友们正在做的事情。3.C。词义猜测题。根据画线短语所在句中的Youwouldhavetosurgicallyremoveaphonefromateenager可知,你必须通过手术把手机从青少年身上取出来。由此可知,手机已经深深扎根于青少年的身体里,这里是一种比喻说法,也就是说青少年对手机的依赖很深。由此推知画线词组“ingrainedin”意为“依靠,依赖”。故选C。四、阅读填句1.C。由上一句这种差别乍一看可能很明显,但事实恰恰相反。以及下一句每个人的行为背后都有一个目的。可知,成功人士和那些没有取得任何重大成就的人之间是有区别的,因为每个人的行动背后都有目的,目的不同,人们采取的行动就会不同,承接上下文,C选项“它在于什么激励人们采取行动。”切题。故选C项
