.D。这里表示作者调对温度显示后的兴奋感觉。16.A。“小事”用incident表述。17.B。根据句意排除其他否定副词，选always。18.C。solve解决。其他选项不符合文中语境。19.A。instore等着，准备着;inturn轮流，依次。20.B。此处意思是“胜利只是时间问题”。21.D。从“Beginyourscholarshipresearchearly”可判断D正确。22.B。从“Answerquestionsastheyareasked.Don’tgoofftopic”可判断B正确。23.B。从“reviewyourapplicationwithyourparentstomakesureyouhaven’tleftoutanyimportantdetails”判断B正确。24.C。从“Itwasevidenceofmyleisuretime,oftravel,ofinterruptionfromtheoffice:milescovered,sightsseen,trainstationsracedthrough,goalsachieved”，作者批判的“Wehavebeentaughtforgenerationsthatworkistheonlygoal”，后文作者陈述的leisuretravel的好处，以及“Themagicofaholidayisintheexperienceitself”可判断作者享受的是leisuretravel本身，把它作为一种目标。作者喜欢这张照片是因为照片里人的状态，而并非那一次旅行本身，A不准确。25.A。从“Itakealongsomethingextra”，“hasahabitofruiningtripswithfeelingsofguilt”以及“Theconflictbetweenthetimewewantoffandtheguiltwefeel”可判断作者这次出去旅行带了点负疚感guilt，即Thefeelingofdoingsomethingwrong。9\n26.B。从“Activelypursuingleisureincreasesyourdesiretowork,leadershipskills,yoursenseofcompetence,andyouradaptability”和“Freetimealsopromotesapositivemoodandsenseofwell-being”等可总结出，leisuretime最大的好处是有益于个人的发展。从“avacationisn’taboutoutput;it’saboutinput”可判断A错误，C和D文中没有提到。27.D。从最后一段“Thebestpartofavacation…beingwhereyouare,fullyinvolvedintheexperience”可判断D正确。28.A。第二段里，作者和女儿在登机时看见了一队男童子军，作者对女儿说，有他们在一切都会OK的。由下文可知，她不知道接下来，真的是在他们的影响下，她和女儿能够换好座位坐在一起，所以A正确，tosomedegree意思是“在某种程度上”。29.B。第四段里，那位母亲和她的三个孩子都不坐在一起，焦虑地都流泪了，可是还是没有人帮忙换座位，所以a正确。第四段的“Theyrefused,sayingtheythoughttheyshouldstayintheirassignedseats”说明d正确。第三段里提到，开始的时候作者的女儿希望作者能在飞机上给她读书，但是登机后发现她们的座位不在一起，所以e正确。第五段的“Theboysfollowedhisdirectionscheerfullyandwithoutcomplaint”说明b的unwilling不对。第六段的“Kallie,however,wasbeginningtopanicatthethoughtofnotbeingnexttoawindoworhermother”说明c的calm不对。所以正确答案为ade，选B。30.D。根据最后一段，作者说如果那些童子军们开始的时候没有帮助那位母亲和她的孩子们，她不知道那位男士会不会主动提出帮作者换座位，所以contagious的意思应该是“传染的”。31.A。作者在本文中讲述了自己和女儿在一次飞行旅途中的遭遇。在童子军们帮助一位母亲和她的孩子们把座位换到一起后，作者和女儿也在好心人的帮助下成功坐到了一起，尤其是文章的最后一句话点出了本文的中心思想，即一件好事会带来更多的好事。32.C。根据Laura的话“Sooftenwehaveparentscomeuptousandsay,‘IhavenoideahowtomonitorFacebook.’”可知，很多孩子沉迷于Facebook等社交网络，他们不知道如何正确地在家里使用现代技术。33.A。根据文意可知受教育程度低的学生接触多媒体的时间要少，Evenchildrenofmoreeducatedparentstendedtousetheirdevicesforentertainment–10hoursofmultimediaaday,a3.5-hourjumpfrom1999.这句话也表明这些孩子接触纯娱乐信息的时间相比受教育程度低的父母的孩子更少。34.C。根据文章可知两人使用多媒体主要是和朋友交流和玩游戏，和教育相关甚少。35.B。纵观全文，主要讲述了在高新科技逐渐普及的今天，虽然电子技术普及的差距正在减少，但是一个新的问题却到来了。文中开篇就提到Nowadaysthedividehasgrownsmaller,butleftatroublingsideeffect.而这一差距就是穷人家的孩子多是利用高科技玩游戏或者聊天，而富人家的孩子则没有。这使得穷人家的孩子浪费了很多的精力，成绩也收到了影响。9
