5．Last year my summer holiday was spoiled by my bringing along a modern convenience that was too convenient for my own good：the iPad．Instead of looking at nature，I checked my e-mail．Instead of paddling a small boat，I followed my Twitter feed（推特簡訊）．Instead of reading great novels，I stuck to reading four newspapers each morning．I was behaving as if I were still in the office．My body was on vacation，but my head wasn't．
    So this year I made up my mind to try something different：withdrawal from the Internet．I knew it wouldn't be easy，since I'm bad at self-control．But I was determined．I started by giving the iPad to my wife．
    The cellphone signal at our house was worse than in the past，making my attempts at cheating an experience in frustration．I was trapped，forced to go through with my plan．Largely breaking away from e-mail，Twitter and my favorite newspaper websites，I had few ways to connect to the world except for the radio-and how much radio can one listen to，really？I had to do what I had planned to do all along：read books．
    This experience has had a happy ending．With determination and the strong support of my wife，I won in my vacation struggle against the Internet，realizing finally that it was I，not the iPad，that was the problem．I knew I had won when we passed a Starbucks and my wife asked if I wanted to stop to use the Wi-Fi．"I don't need it，"I said．
    However，as we return to post-vacation life，a harder test begins：Can I continue when I'm back at work？
    There are times when the need to know what's being said right now is great．I have no intention of giving up my convenience completely．But I hope to resist the temptation to check my e-mail every five minutes，which leads to checking my Twitter feed and a website or two．
I think a vacation is supposed to help you rest your brain to become more productive．Here I hope this one worked．

分析 本文是一篇人生感悟類閱讀，屬于記敘文，去年暑假我一直使用iPad，替代了觀賞大自然，我檢查郵件，替代了劃小船，我更新著我的Twitter．本文以此展開談?wù)�，作者通過自己的個人經(jīng)歷告訴大家要抵制住高科技（手機）帶來的誘惑，讓大腦得到休息．

解答 1．C．細節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)第一段中I was behaving as if I were still in the office．My body was on vacation，but my head wasn't．可知作者對于自己在假期里玩手機上癮，而導(dǎo)致就和在辦公室上班一樣而感到生氣．故C選項正確．
2．A．推理判斷題．根據(jù)第六段中I have no intention of giving up my convenience completely．But I hope to resist the temptation to check my e-mail every five minutes一句可知，重返工作時，作者可能會選擇控制何時以及如何使用互聯(lián)網(wǎng)．故答案A正確．
3．C．細節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)最后一段I think a vacation is supposed to help you rest your brain to become more productive．可知假期就是換個節(jié)奏，讓大腦休息以便于更有創(chuàng)造力．故答案C正確．

點評 閱讀理解題測試考生在閱讀基礎(chǔ)上的邏輯推理能力，要求考生根據(jù)文章所述事件的邏輯關(guān)系，對未說明的趨勢或結(jié)局作出合理的推斷；或根據(jù)作者所闡述的觀點理論，對文章未涉及的現(xiàn)象、事例給以解釋．考生首先要仔細閱讀短文，完整了解信息，準確把握作者觀點．

15．Get a Thorough Understanding of Oneself
In all one's life time，it is oneself that one spends the most time being with or dealing with．（36）D
When you are going upwards in life you tend to overestimate（高估） yourself．It seems that everything you seek for is within your reach．（37）F It's likely that you think it wise for yourself to stay away from the outer world．Actually，to get a thorough understanding of oneself，you may as well keep the following tips in mind．
Gain a correct view of oneself．You may look forward hopefully to the future but be sure not to expect too much，for dreams can never be fully realized．You may be courageous to meet challenges but it should be clear to you where to direct your efforts．（38）G
Self-appreciate．Whether you compare yourself to a high mountain or a small stone，you represent a state of nature．（39）AIf you earnestly（誠摯地） admire yourself you'll have a real sense of self-appreciation．
（40）BIn time of anger，do yourself a favor by releasing（釋放） it in a quiet place so that you won't be hurt by its flames； in time of sadness，do yourself a favor by sharing it with your friends so as to change a bad mood into a cheerful one； in time of tiredness，do yourself a favor by getting a good sleep．
Get a full control of one's life．Then one will find one's life full of color and flavor．

A．It has its own value．
B．Do oneself a favor when it's needed．
C．Do yourself a favor when you resist the attack of illness．
D．But it is precisely oneself that one has the least understanding of．
E．Especially if it is well within your reach，you are just too blind to see it．
F．When you are going downhill you tend to underestimate yourself．
