Question

【題目】

Millions of people in China are taking part in live-streaming ( 直 播 ) quiz shows after they download apps like Chongdingdahui, Huajiao Zhibo and Xigua Shipin. Different from TV quiz shows, anybody with a smartphone can take part in the shows every day, interacting ( 互 動 ) with other players at the same time.

The shows have hosts to present the questions and make the show more lively by telling jokes or giving some background for the questions. Each online player has 10 seconds to answer a question, with each show taking around 20 to 30 minutes. Players can win prizes as small as 1 yuan and as high as more than 40,000 yuan, depending on the total amount ( 數(shù)量) of prize money and the number of winners.

The questions are chosen from a wide range of topics, including literature, geography, maths, biology and so on. For example, players may be asked how many legs crabs have, or what Australia’s national flower is.

To draw new users, the apps offer “redo cards ( 復(fù)活卡)” to new players, as well as to those who have invited new players to join. These cards allow players who give wrong answers an extra chance to compete on the show. Millions of people downloaded these game show apps in January. The number of people Huajiao Zhibo attracted was as high as over 4 million.

Players are enjoying turning their knowledge into a chance to win cash prizes. They have also found that they are learning a lot during the process. “I found them really attractive, as I can learn and play at the same time,” said Cao Lei, a 25-year-old user / player from Beijing. “These are all free apps and I stand to win some money. Why not try them out?” It’s not just the questions－and the joy of winning － that have drawn users. The players may have a proud feeling to continue the game when watching hundreds of thousands of others get knocked out of the competition.

本篇介紹新型的智力游戲沖頂大會、花椒直播、西瓜視頻等如何吸引玩家——所有的APP都是免費、有大小不等的獎金、有復(fù)活卡等；玩家在參與中既可玩又可掙錢，還有自豪感。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段 “anybody with a smartphone can take part in the shows every day,”可知任何有智能手機(jī)的人都可以參加這類游戲；故選A。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段 “Players can win prizes as small as 1 yuan and as high as more than 40,000 yuan, depending on the total amount ( 數(shù)量) of prize money and the number of winners.”—— 玩家可以贏到獎金，小的一元大到40,000元，取決于獎金的總量和獲勝者的數(shù)量；故選B。

【3】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段 “To draw new users, the apps offer “redo cards ( 復(fù)活卡)” to new players, as well as to those who have invited new players to join.” 可知為了吸引新人，他們提供復(fù)活卡給新的使用者和那些邀請新人參加的人；故選D。

【4】詞義猜測題。根據(jù)第五段 “Players are enjoying turning their knowledge into a chance to win cash prizes. They have also found that they are learning a lot during the process.”

可知玩家很喜歡有這個把他們的知識變成贏現(xiàn)金的機(jī)會，并且在玩的過程學(xué)到很多的東西，可見智力游戲非常的有吸引力，所以them是指代“智力游戲”，故選C。

【5】推理判斷題。根據(jù)第五段 ““I found them really attractive, as I can learn and play at the same time,”—— 可知游戲有吸引力歲是因為玩的同時可以學(xué)習(xí)，所以A表達(dá)錯誤；“These are all free apps and I stand to win some money” 可知這些APP都是免費的，C表達(dá)錯誤；所以These are all free apps and I stand to win some money The players may have a proud feeling to continue the game when watching hundreds of thousands of others get knocked out of the competition. ——看著成千上萬的人被淘汰出局時玩家可能會有繼續(xù)比賽的自豪感，所以B表達(dá)正確；根據(jù)第四段“These cards allow players who give wrong answers an extra chance to compete on the show.”—— 這些卡讓答錯的玩家有更多的機(jī)會參加比賽，可知D表達(dá)錯誤，故選B。
