81、y well.【答案】36. D 37. B 38. C 39. D【解析】【分析】这是一篇说明文。网络俚语很受欢迎，华盛顿邮报最近的一篇文章指出，许多千禧一代的俚语词汇都是由语言学家所说的“totesing”行为形成的，这是词汇的系统性缩写。有些人认为千禧一代俚语对英语有负面影响，然而一些语言学家却不这么认为。【36题详解】词句猜测题。根据“LOVE it or hate it, there is no escape from Internet slang.(爱也好，恨也罢，网络俚语无处不在)”及“These days, if they havent caught up with the l
82、atest popular Internet slang(如今，如果他们还没有跟上最新流行的网络俚语)”可知，网络俚语很流行，如果他们还没有跟上最新流行的网络俚语，他们很可能会觉得自己不知道社交媒体上的信息。由此推知，划线短语的意思是“不知道某些信息”。故选D项。【37题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段和第四段“Take these posts by The Washington Post for example: “David Bowie dying is totes tradge” and “When Cookie hugged Jamal it made me totes emosh.”Wh
83、at on earth do these mean? Well, “totes” is a short form of the adverb “totally”. Likewise, “tradge” means “tragic” and “emosh” means “emotional”.(以华盛顿邮报的这些帖子为例：“ david bowie 的死就是 totes tradge”和“ Cookie 拥抱 jamal 让我感到 totes emosh”这到底是什么意思？” “totes”是副词“total”的缩写形式。同样，“tradge”表示“悲剧”，“emosh”表示“情绪化”)”可知，
84、作者是通过实例来解释totesing的现象的。故选B项。【38题详解】推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Her view is backed up by two linguists, Lauren Spradlin and Taylor Jones, from the City University of New York and the University of Pennsylvania respectively.

85、kers who have mastered English pronunciation.(她的观点得到了纽约城市大学和宾夕法尼亚大学两位语言学家Lauren Spradlin和Taylor Jones的支持。两人认为，totes speak是一个高度组织的系统，只有掌握了英语发音的人才能使用)”可推知，Lauren Spradlin对于toesting是积极的态度。故选C项。【39题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段“Totesing is about sounds, and it follows the sometimes-complicated sound system of English

154、 help of the online lessons and the teachers, we have adapted to (the life of) studying at home.【解析】【详解】考查名词、动词短语、时态和介词短语。根据原文可知，“有了网课和老师的帮助”是句中原因状语，可译为：with the help of the online lessons and the teachers；“我们已经适应在家学习的生活”是主句，“适应”可用动词短语adapt to 表示，其中to是介词，“在家学习的生活”可用 (the life of) studying at home表示，
155、根据句中“已经”一词可知，应用现在完成时态，可译为：we have adapted to (the life of) studying at home。综上， 全句译为：With the help of the online lessons and the teachers, we have adapted to (the life of) studying at home.53. 政府规定，返沪的人员一律在家隔离十四天。（it）(汉译英）【答案】The government has made it a rule that people returning to Shanghai should
156、 be isolated at home for 14 days.【解析】【分析】【详解】考查时态、it作形式宾语。表示“政府”应用名词the government，在此处表示单数概念；根据句意及提示词it可知，此处考查固定结构make it a rule that，意为“规定”，在该结构中，it作形式宾语，that后的从句作真正的宾语；所以“政府规定”为主句部分，“返沪的人员一律在家隔离十四天”为宾语从句部分；分析句意可知，主句表示已经发生的事情，所以主句要用现在完成时态；现在完成时态结构为has/have +动词过去分词，主语the government是单数，所以助动词用has，make
157、的过去分词是made，所以主句部分可翻译为The government has made it a rule that；在宾语从句中，表示“返沪人员”用people returning to Shanghai，“一律”表示这是政府规定，可以用“应该（should）”表示；“在家隔离14天”可译为be isolated at home for 14 days；因为should是情态动词，所以be动词应用原型，即宾语从句部分可译为people returning to Shanghai should be isolated at home for 14 days。故翻译为The governmen
158、t has made it a rule that people returning to Shanghai should be isolated at home for 14 days.54. 他文科很棒，所以很有机会被他心仪的大学录取。(stand)【答案】He stands out in liberal arts, so he has a good chance of getting admitted to the university he wants.【解析】【详解】表示“很棒”，可用“stand out”。“被录取”可用“be admitted to”表示。定语从句用he want

160、 effective measures and promise not to let the public down.【解析】【详解】考查短语、时态、语态、名词性从句和倒装。not until直到才；so . that .如此以至于；offer to do sth.提出做某事；take measures采取措施；promise to do sth.承诺做某事；let down使失望。主句陈述过去事情，用一般过去时。结果状语从句动作发生在主句动作之前，所以用过去完成时。句中主语it与spread之间为被动关系，所以用被动语态。否定词not until位于句首，主句用部分倒装结构。动词realiz
161、ed后接宾语从句，从句不缺少成分，且句意完整，所以用连接词that。根据句意，故翻译为Not until the president realized that the virus was so complex that it had been widely spread did he offer to take effective measures and promise not to let the public down.VI.Guided Writing（25分）56.
