What she talks about caught my eye: The first World War and its ending just two years before. “During 1917 and 1918, when the World War was going, there was
24、 a huge demand for war material,” Miller writes. “Most magazines were carrying practically nothing but war stories. When the War ended in November, 1918, some editors still had a goodly supply of war fiction and articlesfor which they had paid real moneyon their hands, which most people by now are f

27、e. As is the nature of fortune telling, we are not so sure we will not occasionally lose: The 1920 editors sitting on a store of war stories no one wants, for example. With so many factors outside your control, and so much uncertainty in the industry, isnt it better to have stories written from the
28、heart that you are truly enthusiastic about rather than some to please an ever-changing publishing market?My future reader, its my hope that this issue finds you this spring doing just that: Writing the stories you need to telland the ones that will delight your own future readers for years to come.
29、4. What does the writer probably do?A. A journalist.B. An editor.C. A librarian.D. A historian.5. What did Millers words suggest?A. The First World War shouldnt have ended too soon.B.

33、 goodly supply of war fiction and articlesfor which they had paid real moneyon their hands, which most people by now are fed up with. (1918年11月战争结束时,有些编辑还保留着大量的战争小说和文章他们花现金买的,但现在大多数人已经厌倦了。)”可知,米勒的话暗示了有些编辑储存了太多的战争资料。故选D项。【6题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段中“Her words have stuck with me for the past 12 months as weve w
34、eighed which COVID-19 stories to run and which to hold. (在过去的12个月里,当我们权衡哪些报道应该报道,哪些报道应该保留时,她的话一直萦绕在我心头。)”可知,作者发现,米勒的话在决定发表哪篇COVID-19报道时特别有用。故选A项。【7题详解】推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“isnt it better to have stories written from the heart that you are truly enthusiastic about rather than some to please an ever-changin
35、g publishing market? (比起迎合不断变化的发行市场,写一些发自内心的故事不是更好吗?)”和最后一段中“Writing the stories you need to tell(写出你需要讲的故事)”可知,对于潜在作者,作者希望其能为未来的读者发自内心地写作。故选D项。CIf your in-box is currently reporting unread messages in the hundreds or thousands, you might have a hard time believing the news: e-mail is on the decline
36、.At first thought, that might seem to be the case. The incoming generation, after all, doesnt do e-mail. Oh, they might have an account. They use it only as we would use a fax machine: as a means to communicate with old-school folks like their parents or to fulfill the sign-up requirements of Web si
37、tes. They rarely check it, though.Todays instant electronic memos such as texting and Facebook and Twitter messages are more direct, more concentrated, more efficient. They go without the salutation (称呼语) and the signoff (签收); we already know the “to” and “from.” Many corporations are moving to mess
38、aging networks for exactly that reason: more signal, less noise and less time. This trend is further evidence that store-and-forward systems such as e-mail and voicemail are outdated. Instead of my leaving you a lengthy message that you pick up later, I can now send you an easily-read message that y
39、ou can read and respond to on the go.The coming of the mobile era is responsible for the decline of e-mail. Instant written messages bring great convince to people. They can deal with them at about any time: before a movie, in a taxi, waiting for lunch. And because these messages are very brief, the
40、yre suitable for smart phone typing.Does this mean e-mail is on its way to the dustbin of digital history? Not necessarily. E-mail still has certain advantages. On the other hand, tweets and texts feel ephemeral you read them, then theyre gone, into an endless string, e-mail still feels like somethi
41、ng you have and that you can file, search and return to later. Its easy to imagine that it will continue to feel more appropriate for formal communications: agreements, important news, longer explanations.So, e-mail wont go away completely. Remember, weve been through a transition (过度) like this not
42、 so long ago: when e-mail was on the rise, people said that postal mail was dead. Thats not how it works. Postal mail found its smaller market, and so will e-mail. New technology rarely replaces old one completely; it just adds new alternatives.8. What would the incoming generation like to do with t
43、heir e-mail accounts?A. Check bank accounts.B. Send long messages.C. Fill in some forms.D. Communicate with their colleagues.9. Which of the following is mainly discussed in paragraphs 3 and 4?A. The possible reasons behind the decline of e-mailB. The likes and dislikes of the young generationC. The
44、 rapid development of e-communication channelsD. Evidence about the uncertain future of easily-consumed messages10. What does the underlined word “ephemeral” in paragraph 5 mean?A. Automatically-sending.B. Randomly-written.C. Hardly- recognized.D. Shortly-appearing.11. According to the passage, whic
45、h of the following statements is true?A. Its too early to determine the decline of e-mail.B. E-mail has reasons to exist with its own advantages.C. E-mail, just like postal mail has come to its end.D. We should feel sorry for the decline of e-mail.【答案】8. C 9. A 10. D 11. B【解析】【分析】这是一篇议论文。文章主要陈述了随着科技
46、的发展电子邮件的使用正在下降,但它有自身的优势,也可以在小范围内存在,不会完全被替代。【8题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段的“They use it only as we would use a fax machine: as a means to communicate with old-school folks like their parents or to fulfill the sign-up requirements of Web sites. (他们使用它就像我们使用传真机:作为一种与老派人士例如他们父母的沟通方式,或者填写网站的一些注册要求)”可知,新一代人可能使用电子邮件来和老
47、派人士交流,或者填写一些表格。故选C。【9题详解】主旨大意题。根据三四段的主要内容,结合第三段的“Todays instant electronic memos such as texting and Facebook and Twitter messages are more direct, more concentrated, more efficient. (今天的即时电子备忘录如短信,Facebook和推特消息更直接、更集中、更高效)”和“This trend is further evidence that store-and-forward systems such as e-ma
48、il and voicemail are outdated. (这种趋势进一步证明了诸如电子邮件和语音邮件之类的储存转发系统已经过时了)”和第四段的“The coming of the mobile era is responsible for the decline of e-mail. (移动时代的到来是电子邮件衰败的原因)”可知,这两段主要陈述了电子邮件衰败背后可能的原因。故选A。【10题详解】词句猜测题。根据划线部分所在句子“On the other hand, tweets and texts feel ephemeral you read them, then theyre gon
49、e, into an endless string, e-mail still feels like something you have and that you can file, search and return to later. ”可知,另一方面推特和短信感觉ephemeral你读了它们,然后它们消失了,变成了无穷无尽的字符串,而电子邮件给人的感觉仍然是你拥有的东西,你可以归档、搜索并可以稍后返回。结合句意可知,和电子邮件相比推特和短信是短暂的,它们很快会消失。由此推知划线词的意思是“短暂存在”,与shortly-appearing同义。故选D。【11题详解】推理判断题。根据倒数第
50、二段的“Its easy to imagine that it will continue to feel more appropriate for formal communications: agreements, important news, longer explanations. (很容易想象,它会继续让人觉得适合使用于正式沟通:协议、重要新闻、更长的解释)”和最后一段 “So, e-mail wont go away completely. Remember, weve been through a transition (过度) like this not so long ag
51、o: when e-mail was on the rise, people said that postal mail was dead. Thats not how it works. Postal mail found its smaller market, and so will e-mail. New technology rarely replaces old one completely; it just adds new alternatives. (所以,电子邮件不会完全消失。记住,我们前不久才经历形同的情况:当电子邮件崛起时,人们说邮政邮件时代会过去。但事情不是这样的。邮政
52、邮件找到了它较小的市场,电子邮件也一样。新的技术很少完全取代旧的,它只是添加了新的选择)”可推知,电子邮件有它自身的优势,它的存在是有理由的。故选B。DKids spend a lot of time looking at screens. And some parents worry.

Odgers argues that the m
57、ethods for previous studies may have led to false conclusions.

B【解析】【分析】这是一篇说明文。一项新的研究反驳了“社交媒体和数字技术的使用正在导致青少年抑郁和与自杀相关的行为问题”这一常见观点,指出父母们实际上收到的信息是没有任何科学依据的。文章介绍了这项研究开展的过程以及发现和意义。【12题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段中“Thats a lot of hours but the researchers didnt find connection between the amount of time th
62、at young people spent online using digital technologies and mental health signs like depression, or anxiety.(这是一个很长的时间,但研究人员没有发现年轻人上网使用数字技术的时间与抑郁或焦虑等心理健康迹象之间的联系)”可知,这项新研究主要是关于社交媒体使用和儿童心理健康之间的关系。故选C。【13题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段中“Parents are really being sent a message that is not supported by anything scientif
