(2018·长郡中学新高三实验班选拔考试)Four years ago，we asked
ourselves：What if we could create a shopping experience with no
waiting in line and no checkout? Or could we create a physical store
where customers could simply take what they want and go? Our answer
to those questions is Amazon Go，where you could experience the idea of “just walk out shopping”．
Amazon Go is a new kind of store with no checkout required.We created the world’s most advanced shopping technology，so you never have to wait in line.With our “just walk out shopping”experience，simply use the Amazon Go app to enter the store，take the products you want，and go！No lines，no checkout.
Our checkout­free shopping experience is made possible by the same types of technologies used in self­driving cars：computer vision，sensor fusion，and deep learning.Our “just walk out technology” automatically detects when products are taken from or returned to the shelves and keeps track of them in your virtual cart.When you’re done shopping，you can just leave the store.Shortly after，we’ll charge your Amazon account and send you a receipt.
We offer delicious ready­to­eat breakfast，lunch，dinner，and snack options made fresh every day by our on­site chefs and favorite local kitchens and bakeries.Our selection of foodstuff ranges from bread and milk to cheeses and locally made chocolates.You’ll find well­known brands we love，plus specia l finds we’re excited to introduce to customers.For a quick home­cooked dinner，pick up one of our chef ­designed Amazon Meal Kits，and you can make a meal for two in about 30 minutes.
Our roughly 1，800­square­foot shopping space is conveniently compact(紧凑的)，so busy customers can get in and out fast.It is located at 2131，7th Ave，Seattle，WA，on the corner of 7th Avenue and Blanchard Street.All you need is an Amazon account，a supported smartphone，and the free Amazon Go app.
Amazon Go is currently only open to Amazon employees in our testing program，and will be open to the public soon.

(2018·合肥市高三调研性检测)Social networks are a big part
of nearly every teenager’s life in this day and age. Many teens
have QQ, WeChat, or Weibo but little do a lot of teens know that
they can be held responsible for everything they post for the rest
of their lives. Everything you post online is part of a digital footprint that can always be traced(追踪) back to you. That includes every post, even every like，comment, favorite and forward that you have ever committed. All pictures you’ve posted or will post have been stored in a digital database, and it is the companies’right to keep all of these documents that you believe to have been deleted or hidden.
With every post comes a consequence; whether it is good or bad，what you post could be seen by anyone. That is why you have to be very careful of what you decide to post or comment.
If you think you are safe from Servite finding out about one funny comment you made six months ago on a meaningless picture, you are probably wrong. Recently, a senior, Aaron, at Servite learned this lesson the hard way this year. He wrote a series of ugly comments towards Connelly girls on a web page, ignoring potential consequences.
This student, however, did have to face consequences from Servite as he was removed from all of his leadership roles in the school. Surprisingly enough, he fully agreed with his punishment handed down by the administration and fully understood why he was given such severe discipline(处罚). “When you agree to come to Servite, you are agreeing to defend what Servite stands for，” the young man said. “That continues from 8 a．m.to 2 p．m. It’s at all times.”
So, next time you’re about to post something you think could be received as
offensive or inappropriate, think twice, or don’t press the “Send”．【解题导语】本文是一篇议论文。

(2018·东北三省四市教研联合体高三模拟)“Her grades are fine; I’m not worried about that, but she just doesn’t seem to love learning any more，” Alice’s mum said.
She’s absolutely right. I’d noticed the same thing about her daughter over the previous two or three years when I’d been Alice’s middle school English, Latin, and writing teacher, and I have an answer, right there on the tip of my tongue, to w hat has gone wrong. Yet I’m torn between my responsibility to help Alice and the knowledge that what I have to say is a truth I’m not sure this mother is ready to hear.
The truth for this parent and so many others is this: Her child has sacrificed her natural curiosity and love of learning at the altar(圣坛) of achievement, and it’s our fault. Alice’s parents, her teachers, society at large—we are all supposed to be blamed in this crime against learning. From her first day of school, we pointed her toward that altar and trained her to measure her progress by means of points, scores, and awards.We taught Alice that her potential is tied to her intellect(智力), and that her intellect is more important than her character. We taught her to come home proudly bearing grade As, championship prizes, and college acceptance, and not on purpose, we taught her that we don’t really care how she obtains them. We taught her to protect her academic and extracurricular perfection at all costs and that it’s better to quit when things get challenging rather than risk losing that perfect record. Above all else, we taught her to fear failure. That fear is what has destroyed her love of learning.

13．What does the underlined word “torn” mean in the passage?

C．Tired to manage. D．Certain to decide.

根据画线词后的“between my r esponsibility...and the knowledge that what I have to say is a truth”可知，作者在两者之间很难选择。

A．Her academic perfection results from her character.
B．She is a gifted girl with spirits of challenging.
C．She is perfect in her character development.

F．Look elsewhere and pretend that something else has caught your attention.
G．Stuck in an unwanted conversation，how do you get out of it?
【解题导语】本文主要介绍了怎样避免无聊的谈话。

1．B解析：选项B中的so就是指空前的“get a refill”这一行为；同时空后的“make a move fast...as well”与选项B的内容相呼应。

2．C解析：空后的代词it指代空处前一句中的“I’m not in a good mood.Can I talk to you later if you don’t mind？”，所以空处及后一句与这一问题有关；同时后一句中的“Say it firmly”与选项C“不要为了获得同情而表现得太礼貌”在内容和语气方面是一致的。

3．G解析：根据该段的主题句以及空后两句可知，空后的两句话是对选项G这一疑问句的回答，选项G能够引出下文，符合语境。

4．D解析：根据上文中的主题句都使用祈使句这一特点可知，该段也应用祈使句作主题句；同时根据该段中的第一句可知，把目光从这个人身上移开，不要有眼神交流，这样可以给对方强烈的暗示，使其发现这段谈话极其无聊，这与选项D “使用肢体语言暗示厌烦”相吻合。

5．F解析：空处起承上启下的作用，且根据该段主题句可知，使用肢体语言暗示厌烦，所以选项F “看向别处并假装你的注意力被其他东西吸引”与之吻合。
