All pictures youve posted or will post have been stored in a digital database, and it is the panies right to keep all of these documents that you believe to have been deleted or hidden.With every post es 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 ment.If you think you are safe from Servite finding out about one funny ment 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 ments 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 e to Servite, you are agreeing to defend what Servite stands for，” the young man said. “That continues from 8 am.to 2 pm. Its at all times.”So, next time youre about to post something you think could be received as offensive or inappropriate, think twice, or dont press the “Send”【解题导语】本文是一篇议论文。当下很多青少年拥有微信、QQ、微博等网络社交工具，但是他们很多人都不知道要对自己所发布的内容负责。文章通过一名高中生的事例说明，在网上发布信息应当慎重。1What does the author think the teens should do in the first paragraph?AAvoid using social media.BRemove their own digital documents.CBe responsible for what they put online.DLearn to balance their online and offline time.C解析：细节理解题。根据第一段第二句可知，很多青少年都有QQ、微信或微博，但很多人都不知道，他们应当对自己在网上发布的任何信息负责；据此可知，作者认为，青少年应当对他们发布在网上的信息负责，故C项正确。2What mistake did Aaron make online?ADrawing some meaningless pictures.BMaking some bad ments.CFailing to take his lesson.DBreaking down a special web page.B解析：细节理解题。根据第三段尾句可知，Aaron在一个网页上写了一系列针对康纳利女孩的难听的评论。故B项正确。3What did Servite do with Aarons case?AIt reached an agreement with Connelly girls.BIt helped Aaron get rid of ill effects.CIt gave Aaron a severe punishment.DIt stood on Aarons side.C解析：细节理解题。根据第四段第二句中的“he was given such severe discipline(处罚)”可知，由于在网站上的不负责行为，他在学校受到了严重处罚，故C项正确。4For whom is the text probably intended?ATeenagers.BTeachers.CParents.DNetwork engineers.A解析：推理判断题。通读全文内容可知，本文第一段的前两句为文章主旨句；结合下文内容可知，本文主要论述了青少年应当对自己在网上发布的任何信息负责的问题，据此可以判断，本文的阅读对象是青少年，故A项正确。B(2018兰州高考实战模拟)In many developed countries, people who have high degrees begin to work longer than those who dont. About 65% of American men aged 6274 with a professional degree are in the workforce(劳动人口), pared with 32% of men who only finish high school. This gap is part of a deepening divide between the welleducated wealthy and the unskilled poor. Rapid technological advance has raised the ines of the highly skilled while squeezing those of the unskilled. The consequences, for individuals and society, are profound.The world is facing an astonishing rise in the number of old people, and they will live longer than ever before. Over the next 20 years the global population of those aged 65 or more will almost double, from 600 million to 1.1 billion. The experience of the 20th century, when greater longevity(长寿) translated into more years in retirement rather than more years at work, has persuaded many observers that this shift(变化) will lead to slower economic growth, while the swelling(渐增的) ranks of pensioners will create government budget problems.Policies are partly responsible. Many European governments have abandoned policies that used to encourage people to retire early. Even the betteroff must work longer to have a fortable retirement. But the changing nature of work also plays a big role. Pay has risen sharply for the highly educated, and those people continue to reap(获得) rich rewards into old age because these days the educated elderly are more productive than the preceding(先前的) generation. Technological change may well reinforce(强化) that shift: the skills that plement(补充) puters, from management knowhow to creativity, do not necessarily decline with age.【解题导语】本文主要讲述了在发达国家有专业技能的人的工作年限更长及其原因分析。5What is the mon phenomenon in the workforce in rich countries?AYounger people are replacing the elderly.BWelleducated people tend to work longer.CPeople with no college degree cannot find any job.DUnemployment rates are decreasing year after year.B解析：细节理解题。根据文章第一段的第一句“In many developed countries, people who have high degrees begin to work longer than those who dont.”可知，在发达国家，受过良好教育的人的工作年限更长，故选B。6In view of the experience of the 20th century, many observers predict that Aeconomic growth will slow downBgovernment budgets will decreaseCmore people will try to receive higher educationDthere will be more petition in the job marketA解析：细节理解题。根据第二段的最后一句“The experience of the 20th century, when greater longevity(长寿) . pensioners will create government budget problems.”可知，选A。7According to the text, what is the result of policy changes in European countries?AUnskilled workers may choose to retire early.BMore and more people have to go abroad to hunt for jobs.CPeople may be able to use puters to do more plicated work.DEven wealthy people must work longer to live fortably in retirement.D解析：细节理解题。根据最后一段的第三句“Even the betteroff must work longer to have a fortable retirement.”可知，欧洲国家政策的变化导致富有的人也必须工作更长时间才能过上舒服的退休生活，故选D。8The underlined word “knowhow” in the last paragraph probably refers to “ ”Aa pletely different environmentBpractical knowledge and technical skillsCa better understanding of policy changesDthe courage to face difficulties and dangersB解析：词义猜测题。根据最后一段的最后一句“Technological change may well reinforce(强化) that shift: the skills that plement(补充) puters, from management knowhow to creativity, do not necessarily decline with age.”可知，knowhow是对skills的限定修饰，由此可推知，knowhow指相应的技能和知识，故选B。 完形填空(2018郑州第一次质量预测)I remember the first day when I saw Sally playing basketball.
