leave

us

without

a

friend.

the

process

is

difficult

and

requires

courage.

second

most

always

be

a

experience.Let

it

參考答案：文章大意本文是一篇議論文。文章講述了作者去看望大學同學時，無意中把手機落在了家里，讓他非常恐懼，由此引出了文章討論的話題：nomophobia(無手機恐懼癥)。1.B詞義猜測題。根據(jù)畫線短語所在句意可知，手機不在身邊的時候，很多人會非常緊張和擔憂。短語“onedge”與“worried”是并列關系，表示相近的含義。故選B。2.A推理判斷題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第三段可知，作者很擔心當手機的數(shù)量超過人類的數(shù)量時，究竟是誰來控制誰？說明作者對使用手機是非常擔心的。故選A。3.B推理判斷題。根據(jù)第五段可知，18—24歲的女孩子和手機的聯(lián)系最緊密，她們最可能患上“無手機恐懼癥”。故選B。4.D主旨大意題。根據(jù)第一、二、三段可知，作者去看望大學同學，無意中把手機落在了家里，讓他非常恐懼，由此引出了文章討論的話題：nomophobia(無手機恐懼癥)。A、B、C三項是文章的部分內(nèi)容。故選D。文章大意本文是一篇記敘文。文章講述了音樂人Schmieder和妻子創(chuàng)建了一個由各國不同年齡的音樂家組成的團隊，他們在一起合作交流，希望通過他們的音樂和友誼使世界更加和平。1.D細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段的“Schmiederandhiswifestartedtheprogrammein1997withhelpfromviolinistandconductorYehudiMenuhin.”可知，Schmieder和妻子是在1997年開始做這個項目。故選D。2.B推理判斷題。根據(jù)文中第三段中的“Schmiedernotessomeofthemusiciansarefrom…throughtheirmusicandfriendship,theyaremakingtheworldmorepeaceful.”可知，來自正在打仗的國家的音樂家們坐在一起，互相成了朋友。他們希望通過他們的音樂和友誼使世界更加和平。Schmieder想以此表達音樂使世界更加和諧。故選B。3.C詞義猜測題。根據(jù)第二段內(nèi)容和畫線詞上文的“theyincludewinnersofmajormusiccompetitions”可知，參加這個項目的音樂家都是非常有才華，有成就的人。此處指PeterRainer認為有這么多杰出的音樂家，真是太好了。句中的“sensitive”意思是“有才華的，杰出的”與“Brilliant”同義。故選C。4.C標題歸納題。本文主要講述了音樂人Schmieder創(chuàng)建了一個由各國不同年齡的音樂家組成的團隊，他們在一起合作交流，他們希望通過他們的音樂和友誼使世界更加和平。C項“音樂沒有地域界限”，正好表達了本文主題，適合作為標題。故選C。七選五：1.E推理判斷題.根據(jù)空格后面Butformanyofustheprocessisdifficultandrequirescourage."但是，對
