閱讀表達(dá)（共5小題；每小題3分，滿分15分）

閱讀下面的短文，并根據(jù)短文后的要求答題。（請(qǐng)注意問題后的詞數(shù)要求）

(1) The word addiction usually makes you think of alcohol or drugs, but in modern-day society we are seeing some new kinds of addictions. Some people are compulsive (難以自制的) shoppers. Others find it impossible to pull themselves away from their work. Still others spend countless hours watching TV or playing computer games.

(2) Over the years, shopping has become a very common activity. Many people enjoy going to stores more and more every day, but it’s more than a common hobby for some of them. They have turned into shopaholics. They are people who simply enjoy shopping and walking around spending money without being able to stop doing. They are booked on shopping and usually buy things that they don’t need. Even though they don’t have enough money, they buy everything they want.

(3) The question is, why do they have this addiction? There isn’t a specific answer. Some people go shopping when they are sad, worried, upset or lonely and they want to feel better. They use this activity as a way to forget their problems. Shopaholics say they feel more important and better after they buy something. They also tend to have this addition when they feel guilty.

(4) Shopaholism seems to be harmless addiction, but it can _____. Some of them can be psychological. If this is the case, people addicted to shopping should go to a support group to help them break this habit. However, the process, like for most addictions, is long, and they suffer a lot. It can also cause financial problems. They just think about satisfying their feelings, so they spend money they don’t have. They get deep in debt, and they can even go bankrupt and get sent to prison.

77. The reason why some people/ shopaholics have shopping addiction

   The possible reasons for shopaholism/ shopping addition

78. cause/ bring about/ result in many problems

79 If this is the case, people addicted to shopping should go to a support group to help them break this habit.

80. 他們購物成癮，而且通常買的都是用不著的東西。（他們購物上癮，常買些不需要的東西。）

解析:

76. 第一段中最全面的概括了能使人成癮的事情�！癮lcohol or drugs”, “compulsive shoppers” , “their work”, “watching TV or playing computer games”. 考生要注意語言的表達(dá)，題目要求 “l(fā)ist three activities”, 所以注意用名詞或動(dòng)名詞來回答。

77. 第三段第一句The question is: why do they have this addiction?提出了問題，下文都是對(duì)此做出的解答。所以變換一下表達(dá)方式就可以得出準(zhǔn)確的答案。

78. 關(guān)鍵是上下文要連貫。上文提到，購物癖看起來是沒有害處的癮，但是…，所以要從有害的角度來說；下文也是從這個(gè)角度談?wù)摰摹?/p>

79.Accordingly：根據(jù)情況來說，同原文中的“If this is the case”——如果這是事實(shí)的話，意思接近。 turn to…for help:求助…。找到這兩個(gè)關(guān)鍵地方就能準(zhǔn)確找出答案。

80. be hooked on意為：成迷，上癮，是關(guān)鍵短語�！皌hat they don’t need”是things 的定語從句。
