(2020·北京市朝阳区高三二模)If there’s one cliche(陈词滥调)that really annoys Danah Boyd，a specialist researcher who has made a career from studying the way teenagers use the web，it’s that of the digital native.“Today the world has putermediated munications.Thus，in order to learn about their social world around them，teenagers are learning about those things too.And they’re using that to work out the stuff that kids have always worked out: peer(同龄人)sociality，status，etc.” she says.It’s no surprise Boyd takes exception，really.As one of the first digital anthropologists to dig into the way teenagers use social networking sites，she gained insights into the social web by taking a closer look at what was going on.Lately，her work has been about explaining new ways of interpreting the behavior we see online.She outlined some examples at a recent conference in San Francisco，including the case of a young man from one of the poorest districts of Los Angeles who was applying for a top American college.The applicant said he wanted to escape the influence of violence，but the admissions officer was shocked when he discovered that the boy’s MySpace page was covered with precisely the violent language he claimed to hate.“Why was he lying about his motivations？”asked the university.“He wasn’t，” said Boyd.“In his world，showing the right images online was a key part of surviving daily life.”Understanding what’s happening online is especially important，for today’s teenagers have a vastly different approach to privacy from their parents.She says，“Adults think of the home as a very private space.That’s often not the case for teenagers because they have little or no control over who has access to it，or under what conditions.As a result，the online world can feel more private because it feels like there’s more control.”The concept of control is central to Boyd’s work，and it applies to pointing out the true facts about teenage behavior.Boyd suggests control remains in the same places as it always did.“Technologists all go for the idea of techno utopia(乌托邦)，the web as great democratizer(民主化)”，she says.“But we’re not actually democratizing the whole system; we’re just shifting the way in which we discriminate.”It’s a call to arms that most academic researchers would tend to sidestep，but then Boyd admits to treading a fine line between academics and activists.“The questions I continue to want to ask are the things that are challenging to me；having to sit down and be forced to think about unfortable social stuff，and it’s really hard to get my head around it，which means it’s exactly what I should divein and deal with，” she says.1．What does Danah Boyd think of “putermediated munications”？A．They teach teenagers about social interaction.B．They replace other sorts of social interaction for teenagers.C．They are necessary for teenagers to have social interaction.D．They are barriers to wider social interaction among teenagers.2．Why does Danah Boyd cite the example of the Los Angeles college applicant?A．To show how easy it is to investigate somebody’s online activity.B．To illustrate how easy it is to misinterpret an individual online activity.C．To prove how important it is to check the content of someone’s online activity.D．To express how necessary it is to judge someone’s sincerity from his online activity.3．Danah Boyd argues in Paragraph 4 that .A．teenagers feel more private in the online world than in the homeB．teenagers are less concerned about privacy than their parentsC．parents tend not to respect teenagers’ need for online privacyD．parents value the idea of privacy less in a domestic environment4．It can be inferred from the last paragraph that Danah Boyd .A．is willing to take on research challenges others would avoidB．regards herself as being more of an activist than a researcherC．is aware that she is lacking in ability to deal with the challengesD．feels like abandoning the research into unfortable social stuff【答案】 1.C 2.B 3.A 4.A【解析】本文是议论文。

A(2022·辽宁省协作体高三第一次模拟考试)Though there are filters which can change digital photographs to make them similar to a painting, obvious differences still exist.A brandnew painting AI has been made public recently.Much like the pupils of the old masters, the new AI studies the works of great painters like Vermeer and Van Gogh and learns to reproduce their works.The AI, named “PaintBot”， is the creation of a team of researchers from the University of Maryland, the Bytedance AI Lab and Adobe Research.PaintBot can not only reproduce the works of different artists but create new works based on photographs in the chosen painterʼs characteristic style.To train the AI to imitate a given artistʼs technique, the researchers would present it with between 3 and 10 reference paintings.With each reference painting it studies, the AI gradually learns to recognize the various characteristics of the given artistʼs technique, including the stroke colour, position and size—along with the order in which each brushstroke should be made.PaintBot uses a technique known as reinforcement learning.During the learning process, the AI would practice reproducing reference paintings, which it would then pare with the original work to see how similar the two were and if it was improving its imitation of the artistʼs style.It takes around six hours for the AI to learn to imitate a given painter.Once the AI has mastered a particular artistʼs technique, the researchers could present it with a new image to reproduce in the same style.The AI then uses what it has learnt to produce a new painting, putting down each brushstroke one at a time.After being trained in a given style, PaintBot takes only around five minutes to produce each of its digital masterpieces.The way that PaintBotʼs positions are built up from thousands of individual brushstrokes makes the AIʼs works more realistic than those online filters.1．What do we know about filters used to change digital photos？________ A．They are well received.B．They are not good enough.C．They are really fantastic.D．They are disliked by people.2．How does PaintBot create works？________A．It mixes techniques of different artists.B．It learns from the artist on the spot.C．It just imitates the color of the given paintings.D．It follows the given style of the paintings.3．Which of the following words can the author use to describes PaintBotʼs paintings？________A．Lifelike. B．Valuable.C．Advanced. D．Original.4．What is a suitable title for the passage？________A．The Most Intelligent AI Painter PaintBotB．A Brandnew Painting Reproduced By AIC．PaintBot Creates More Realistic PaintingsD．How PaintBot Imitates Artistsʼ techniques【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。

A(2020·河北省衡水中学高三下学期第一次模拟考试)Scientists have developed a new type of smart bandage(绷带) that can signal the type of bacterial(细菌的) infection it’s protecting，just like a traffic light，as well as release the right type of drugs on demand.The traffic light system works just like this：Green means no bacteria or a low concentration of bacteria，yellow means drugsensitive(DS) bacteria responsive to standard antibiotics(抗生素) and causes antibiotic release，and red means drugresistant(DR) bacteria that need extra help to be wiped out.In testing the bandage on mice，the research team was able to successfully treat both DS and DR infections using the new method.However，the mon methods of sensing resistance are limited by time，the requirement for professional personnel，and expensive instruments.Moreover，the abuse of antibiotics causes the accelerated process of bacterial resistance.It’s easy to see how a simple bandage and light could overe some of these limitations.Treatment doesn’t have to wait for a doctor to make a diagnosis，and the bandage can get the right sort of drugs applied at the earliest opportunity.What’s more，the person wearing the bandage gets realtime feedback on what’s happening with the infection，if there’s an infection at all.The researchers say it offers numerous benefits over existing treatments that make use of light，including photodynamic therapy or PDT.We’ve been seeing quite a few upgrades to the traditional bandage in recent years，thanks to advances in science —like the nanofiber mesh that attracts bacteria and draws some of it out，speeding up the healing process.Then there’s the novel bandage for treating burns，which stops bacteria from multiplying and lowers the risk of infection.The more work that a bandage can do while it’s protecting a wound，the better.Efforts to improve bandages continue and now we’ve got a bandage that not only releases antibiotics，but also tells the patient exactly what’s going on too.1．What is the smart bandage mainly designed to do?A．Avoid the use of antibiotics.B．Clear out harmful bacteria.C．Detect bacterial infections.D．Increase treatment options.2．What is the advantage of the smart bandage?A．It saves much time and cost.B．It removes the risk of infection.C．It prevents the bacterial resistance.D．It improves doctorpatient relationship.3．What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs?A．Traditional bandages are out of use now.B．More smart bandages will be developed.C．Progress in science calls for more research.D．People are urged to study medical science.4．What does the text focus on?A．A successful test on mice.B．A colourchanging bandage.C．Sensing drugresistant bacteria.D．Preventing abuse of antibiotics.【答案】 1.C 2.A 3.B 4.B【解析】这是一篇说明文。

“New and improved.” These words are put in so many marketing campaigns that we tend to accept them as linked.But many new drugs aren’t an improvement over the best existing drug for a given condition，and the fast drugapproval processes in recent years have added to the uncertainty about their advantages.A recent report in the British Medical Journal，“New Drugs：Where Did We Go Wrong and What Can We Do Better？” analysed the issue.The authors looked at 216 drugs approved between 2011 and 2017; 152 were newly developed，and 64 were existing medicine approved for new uses.Only 25%offered a major advantage over the established treatment，and fully 58%had no confirmed added benefit to reduce symptoms or improve healthrelated quality of life.“This doesn’t mean there’s no added benefit，” lead author Wieseler said.“It just means we have no positive proof.Either we have no studies or have studies not good enough.” Wieseler and her coauthors work for a German institute whic h evaluates new treatments and advises on whether the country’s health care system should pay a premium(占) for them.Such organizations，known as health technology assessment (HTA) agencies，work a little differently in the US，says Sean Tunis，a researcher in Baltimore：“If payers think a new drug isn’t better than an existing drug，these agencies will require that hospitals try the cheaper drug first.”Germany’s HTA demands trials to prove that a new treatment beats the existing standard.This isn’t always practi cal.For one thing，such studies can be expensive and timeconsuming，with no guarantee of success.Secondly，it can discourage panies from attempting to develop new alternatives.This is already happening.Drug developers are increasingly focused on areas where there are no good treatments to pete with，such as rare diseases.This lack of meaningful data to guide patients is a major point of Wieseler’s paper—With accelerated approval，there are more products approved，with a greater amount of uncertainty about risks and benefits.But there are other solutions besides drug trials.One idea is to require postmarket studies to track the effectiveness of newly approved drugs—a step too often neglected.1．What message does the recent report convey?A．Many new drugs have no improved advantages.B．The approval processes for new drugs are too fast.C．Improved drugs have advantages over old ones.D．Before 2017 no improvement was made to drugs.2．What will US HTA agencies do when no advantage is found in new drugs?A．Remove government premium on them.B．Get hospitals to use the cheaper drugs.C．Arrange financial support for the patients.D．Put new drugs on further trials and studies.3．What’s the disadvantage of Germany’s HTA trial demands?A．Making drug panies think of illegal ways to cut cost.B．Pushing panies to try alternatives for existing drugs.C．Getting patients to depend on the government for support.D．Holding panies back from improving existing drugs.4．What is the best title for the text?A．The Advantage of Existing DrugsB．Misunderstanding of New and Old DrugsC．A Dilemma with New Drug AlternativesD．People’s Preference for New or Old Drugs【答案】【解析】这是一篇说明文。

(2021·衡阳第八中学、永州市第四中学联考)A“My work is done.”Those words were some of the last penned by George Eastman.He included them in his suicide note.They mark an ignoble end to a noble life，the leave taking of a truly great man.The same words could now be said for the company he left behind.Actually，the Eastman Kodak Company is through.It has been mismanaged financially，technologically and competitively.For 20 years，its leaders have foolishly spent down the patrimony of a century's prosperity.One of America's bedrock brands is about to disappear，the Kodak moment has passed.But George Eastman is not how he died，and the Eastman Kodak Company is not how it is being killed.Though the ends be needless and premature，they must not be allowed to overshadow the greatness that came before.Few companies have done so much good for so many people，or defined and lifted so profoundly the spirit of a nation and perhaps the world.It is impossible to understand the 20th Century without recognizing the role of the Eastman Kodak Company.Kodak served mankind through entertainment，science，national defense and the stockpiling of family memories.Kodak took us to the top of Mount Suribachi and to the Sea of Tranquility.It introduced us to the merry old Land of Oz and to stars from Charlie Chaplin to John Wayne，and Elizabeth Taylor to Tom Hanks.It showed us the shot that killed President Kennedy，and his brother bleeding out on a kitchen floor，and a fallen Martin Luther King Jr.on the hard balcony of a Memphis motel.When that sailor kissed the nurse，and when the spy planes saw missiles in Cuba，Kodak was the eyes of a nation.From the deck of the Missouri to the grandeur of Monument Valley，Kodak took us there.Virtually every significant image of the 20th Century is a gift to posterity(富强) from the Eastman Kodak Company.In an era of easy digital photography，when we can take a picture of anything at any time，we cannot imagine what life was like before George Eastman brought photography to people.Yes，there were photographers，and for relatively large sums of money they would take stilted(不自然的) pictures in studios and formal settings.But most people couldn't afford photographs，and so all they had to remember distant loved ones，or earlier times of their lives，was memory.Children could not know what their parents had looked like as young people，grandparents far away might never learn what their grandchildren looked like.Eastman Kodak allowed memory to move from the uncertainty of recollection，to the permanence of a photograph.But it wasn't just people whose features were savable; it was events，the sacred and precious times that families cherish.The Kodak moment，was humanity's moment.And it wasn't just people whose features were savable; it was events，the precious times that families cherish.Kodak let the fleeting moments of birthdays and weddings，picnics and parties，be preserved and saved.It allowed for the creation of the most egalitarian art form.Lovers could take one another's pictures，children were photographed walking out the door on the first day of school，the person releasing the shutter decided what was worth recording，and hundreds of millions of such decisions were made.And for centuries to come，those long dead will smile and dance and communicate to their unborn progeny(子孙)．Familyhistory will be not only names on paper，but smiles on faces.The cash flow not just provided thousands of people with job，but also allowed the company's founder to engage in some of the most generous charity inAmerica's history.Not just in Kodak's home city of Rochester，New York，but in Tuskegee and London，and at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.He bankrolled(资助) two historically black colleges，fixed the teeth of Europe's poor，and quietly did good wherever he could.While doing good，Kodak did verywell.Over all the years，all the Kodakers over all the years are essential parts of that monumental legacy.They prospered a great company，but they—with that company—blessed the world.That is what we should remember about the Eastman Kodak Company.Like its founder，we should remember how it lived，not how it died.History will forget the small men who have scuttled this company.But history will never forget Kodak.【语篇解读】文章叙述了柯达公司的没落，柯达公司对世界作出的巨大贡献以及作者对柯达公司的仰慕。

A(广东省六校2019－2020学年高三上学期第二次联考)Jonathan Agnew recently described “unofficial interviews” as those where you agree that it’s “between you and I”．And a Times journalist wrote about someone who had “made Jenny and I feel so wele”．They are both intelligent people with the ability to express ideas fluently and logically.And yet they wrote “I” where they meant “me”．It’s happening more and more.We are scared of the mistake like “Terry and me went to the pub”．We’ve all been taught that it should be “Terry and I went to the pub”．Plus we’ve heard the Queen say “my husband and I” a lot.So we begin to use “and I” even when it should be “and me”．But my point here is not to support the correct usage.It’s the opposite：I want to reject the idea that there’s such a thing as “correct” English at nguage isn’t like maths，where you can show that two plus two is nguage has no fundamental rights and wrongs，only conventions.You cannot definitively prove that any are “right” and others “wrong”．Sometimes correct language sounds absurd.Look at Ofsted (Office for Standards in Education，Children’s Services and Skills) who came up with a new rule.Primary school children now have to be taught that “inverted mas” is right，while “s peech marks” is wrong.You and I know that those terms are interchangeable.And the child who looks at those marks on the page can see that both make perfect sense.That’s because a primary school child is more intelligent than the Ofsted turkey who came up with this rule.As the teacher who told me about the ludicrous rule pointed out，there is no doubt that in a few years’ time，the “incorrect” term will bee the “correct” one.But the truly horrible thing about an education system like this is that it destroy s children’s love of language.It tells them they have to worry about rules，instead of encouraging them to read and write for its own sake.Let them read for fun and they’ll absorb the rules—or conventions—anyway.Have them shaking in fear about English tests，and you’ll increase their insecurity about getting language “right”．Then one day that insecurity will have them saying “and I” even though theymean “and me”．1．Why do people use “and I” when it should be “and me” according to the text?A．The Ofsted sets a rule.B．“and I” is the correct English.C．The Queen makes a similar mistake.D．People feel insecure about using “and me”．2．What can we learn from paragraphs 3 and 4?A．Rules benefit children’s language learning.B．Language learning is more plicated than maths.C．Language is based on monly accepted rules.D．A primary school child is smarter than the Ofsted.3．What does the underlined word “ludicrous” in Paragraph 5 mean?A．Influential.

A(2024·福建省莆田市中学毕业班5月第三次模拟)New Yearʼs Day is meant for food.As the new year arrives around the world, there could be special cakes and breads, for example, long noodles representing long life, field peas representing coins, and pigs representing good luck.The particulars vary, but the general theme is the same: Enjoy food and drink to bring in a year of prosperity.Here are some of the New Yearʼs food traditions around the world.Hoppinʼ John, American SouthA major New Yearʼs food tradition in the American South, Hoppinʼ John is a dish of pork-flavored field peas or black-eyed peas—symbolizing coins—and rice, frequently served with cooked greens—as theyʼre the color of money and cornbread—the color of gold.The dish is said to bring good luck in the new year.Twelve grapes, SpainThe people of Spain traditionally watch a broadcast from Puerta del Sol in Madrid, where people gather in front of the squareʼs clock tower to ring in the New Year.Those out in the square and those watching at home take part in an unusual annual tradition: At the stroke of midnight, they eat one grape for every toll of the clock bell.Some even get their grapes ready—peeling and seeding them—to make sure they will be as efficient as possible when mid-night comes.Tamales, MexicoTamales, corn dough filled with meat, cheese and other delicious additions and wrapped in a banana leaf or a corn husk, make appearances at pretty much every special occasion in Mexico.In many families, groups of women gather together to make hundreds of the little packets to hand out to friends, family and neighbors.Soba noodles, JapanIn Japanese households, families eat buckwheat soba noodles, or toshikoshi soba, at mid-night on New Yearʼs Eve to say goodbye to the year gone by and welcome the year to come.The tradition dates back to the 17th century, and the long noodles symbolize longevity and prosperity.1．The common theme of food for New Yearʼs Day is ________.A．to show its deliciousness and sell well in marketB．to eat and drink well and hope for a fancy new yearC．to celebrate new year and wish for blessings from natureD．to say farewell to the old year and welcome the new year2．Which dish is believed to bring good luck in the new year？________A．Hoppinʼ John.

组合练四(限时练40分钟)Ⅰ.阅读理解Facebook and RayBan have released their first pair of camera smart glasses, RayBan Stories. Facebook hopes they'll be worn to take pictures and short videos, listen to music, and make phone calls, by anyone 13 or older.The glasses, which Facebook had made fun of in the past, start at $299 and come in three styles, and are available to buyers in six countries, including the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom.Hind Hobeika, a product manager for augmentedreality devices at Facebook Reality Labs, told me RayBan Stories are “the first smart glasses that people will want to wear”．Facebook lent me a pair of RayBan Stories with sunglass lenses (镜片) so I could decide for myself. RayBan Stories rely on a companion smartphone app called Facebook View to let you see, edit and share images and videos. It was easy to send pictures to friends via the app.As far as I could tell, nobody noticed anything unusual about the glasses while chasing my kids around a busy playground, even when I was taking numerous short videos. It would have been easy to use these glasses to invade other people's privacy.I spoke with Jeremy Greenberg, policy counsel at the Future of Privacy Forums, about my experience. He said there's “definitely some concerns” that people didn't appear to notice that I was capturing pictures and videos—something that would be more obvious if I had pulled out my phone.“It'll be interesting to see, if this technology becomes widespread, will folks sort of develop that cultural understanding that their images might be taken or videos might be taken？” he asked. “It's real that time will tell.”And after days of trying them out, I still didn't have the sense that I (or anyone, really) need RayBan Stories. You may need eyeglasses or sunglasses, and a smartphone, too. But it's going to be tough for Facebook to convince most people that they haveto have a device that can repeat a few of their phone's features sitting on their face—even one that looks this good.1．What can we learn about RatBan Stories?A．They are intended for adults. B．Each pair is no more than $299.C．Hind Hobeika has confidence in them. D．They are being sold all over the world.2．What can we use Facebook View to do?A．Revise photos. B．Produce videos.C．Listen to music. D．Make phone calls.3．What was Jeremy Greenberg curious to know?A．Whether people will buy RayBan Stories.B．Whether people like to have their photos taken.C．Whether RayBan Stories will replace mobile phones.D．Whether RayBan Stories will develop well.4．What is the author's final conclusion about RayBan Stories?A．They are practical. B．They are unnecessary.C．They will cause trouble. D．They will benefit us greatly.[答题区]Ⅱ.阅读七选五No matter what your goals are in life, there is one great law that you need to obey in order to be successful: no one else is going to climb the ladder (梯子) of success for you. __1__ From the day you leave your parents' house, you are responsible for your life and the choices you make.If you want a better life, you need to make better decisions. __2__ However, it doesn't change anything.
