4.According to ReelSEO.com,a website about video marketing,there are more than 2 million cat videos on YouTube.People have watched these videos more than 25 billion times,which equates to an average of 12,000 views per cat video.I couldn't help but wonder:Who is so drawn to this type of content?And what effects do cat-related media have on viewers?
These questions encouraged my initial search to gather data on the Internet cat phenomenon.I scoured academic databases to see what the literature could tell me but found no existing data about why people watched so many cat videos online or what effects these videos might have on us.
So I decided to find out myself.My neighborhood Internet celebrity feline(貓)-the adorable Lil Bub,who happens to also live in Bloomington,Indiana-shared the link on her website after I launched an online survey.With Bub's help,the survey quickly got nearly 7,000 respondents.The results from this study suggested that certain people are more likely than others to view large amounts of Internet cat videos.It also showed that cat videos can positively influence the emotions of viewers.
According to my study,if you currently own or have previously owned a cat,of if you've volunteered to assist pets in the past years,you're more likely to watch cat videos.Cat video viewers also spent more time online than other participants,tended to be more agreeable and shy,and felt they had adequate emotional support in their lives.
The data also revealed information about the nature of audience interactions with online cat media.Three-quarters of respondents did not actively seek out cat content.Instead,they happened upon it in the course of their daily Internet use,Still,online cat videos aren't all about passive consumption.Many people also produce their own cat-related media to post online,which often increases comments and likes.
 But I really wanted to learn what effects watching online cat videos might have on viewers.People in my study reported experiencing more positive emotions and having higher energy levels after watching cat videos than before.They also reported lower levels of negative emotions after viewing online cat-related content.In short,most of us get a little psychological pick-me-up when we watch Lil Bub climb the stairs.
32.What does the underlined word"scoured"in Paragraph 2 mean?A
A.Searched.B.Copied.C.Created.D.Recorded.
33.How did the author begin her study on cat videos?C
A.By the questionnaire.
B.By referring to previous studies.
C.By surveying on the Internet.
D.By producing cat videos.
34.According to the author's study,C.
A.it's hard to avoid Internet cats when people look through the Internet     
B.if people don't have a cat now,they are not likely to watch cat videos     
C.when looking through the Internet,most people would make comments on cat content
D.people who watch act videos are less active and have less support
35.What's the author's attitude to watching cat videos?D
A.Unclear.B.Contradictory.C.Doubted.D.Positive.

分析 本文屬于說明文閱讀,作者通過這篇文章主要向我們描述了作者通過在互聯網上調查開始她的貓視頻研究,發(fā)現它對人的影響是積極的.

解答 32.A.詞義猜測題.根據第二段I scoured academic databases to see what the literature could tell me 可知我搜遍了學術數據庫,看看哪些文獻可以告訴我;意為搜索;故選A.
33.C.細節(jié)理解題.根據第三段 I launched an online survey.With Bub's help,the survey quickly got nearly 7,000 respondents可知作者通過在互聯網上調查開始她的貓視頻研究;故選C.
34.C.細節(jié)理解題.根據倒數第二段Many people also produce their own cat-related media to post online,which often increases comments and likes.可知透過互聯網,大多數人增加自己的評論;故選C.
35.D.推理判斷題.根據第三段It also showed that cat videos can positively influence the emotions of viewers可知作者的態(tài)度看貓視頻是積極的;故選D.

點評 考察學生的細節(jié)理解和推理判斷能力,做細節(jié)理解題時一定要找到文章中的原句,和題干進行比較,再做出正確的選擇.在做推理判斷題不要以個人的主觀想象代替文章的事實,要根據文章事實進行合乎邏輯的推理判斷.

9.Anna Schiferl hadn't even got out of bed when she reached for her cell phone and typed a text to her mum,one recent Saturday.Mom was right downstairs in the kitchen.The text?Anna wanted an egg for breakfast.Soon after,Joanna Schiferl called,"If you want to talk to me,Anna,come downstairs and see me?"Anna laughs about it now."I was kind of being lazy,"she admits.
    These days,many people with cell phones prefer texting to a phone call.And that's creating a communication divide-the talker vs.the texters.Some would argue that it's no big deal.But many experts say the most successful communicators will,of course,have the competence to do both.And they fear that more of us are unable to have-or at least are avoiding-the traditional face-to-face conversations.
    Many professors say it is not common to see students outside of class."I sit in my office hours lonely now because if my students have a question,they email me,often late at night,"says Rence Hosuton,a professor at the University of Puget Sound in Washington state."And they never call."
    As Anna sees it:"There are people you'll text,but won't call.It's just a way to stay in touch with each other."Some believe that scores of texts each day keep people more connected."The problem is that conversation is not very deep,"says Joseph Grenny,co-author of the book Cultural Conversations:Tools for Talking When Stakes Are High.
"The problem has been there since we've had telephones-probably since the time of a telegraph,"Grenny says.Texting is just the latest way to do that.Though they may not always be so good at deep conversations themselves,Grenny suggests that parents model the behavior for their children and put down their own cell phones.He says that they also should set limits,as Anna's mom did when she made the"no texting to people in the same house"rule.
28.According to Paragraph 1,JoannaA.
A.was very strict with her daughter            
B.did not know how to use a cell phone
C.was angry that her daughter got up late       
D.did not have any breakfast that morning
29.Which statement about Rence's students is true?C
A.They often work late at night.
B.They often ask stran ge questions.
C.Few ask questions face to face.
D.Many email her if she feels lonely.
30.In Joseph Grenny's opinion,D.
A.cell phone makes people lonelier
B.telephone help people communicate clearly
C.texting helps people have deeper conversations
D.talking should be encouraged instead of texting
31.What is the main idea of the text?C
A.It tells us a wonderful experience of Anna Schiferl.
B.It introduces a new tool used for communication.
C.It discusses the problem caused by sending texts.
D.It talks about the important role of phones in our life.
