【解析】

在現(xiàn)代生活中,智能手機(jī)這種電子設(shè)備以及微信、臉書等應(yīng)用軟件的廣泛使用,很少有人再用寫信的方式與其他人溝通和交流了。但是作者在圣誕節(jié)的時(shí)候,仍然用寫信的方式與在美國的朋友互致問候。他覺得當(dāng)你在書寫的時(shí)候,你才能夠完整地表達(dá)你的思想和感情。

1句意:是的,寫信是我和我在美國的朋友每年圣誕節(jié)表達(dá)問候的方式。

考查動(dòng)詞辨析。introduce介紹;exchange交換,交流;describe描述,描寫;repeat重復(fù)。根據(jù)下文People ask why not send our greetings on Facebook, or on WeChat可知,這里應(yīng)表示“表達(dá)問候”,與send意思最為接近的是exchange,故應(yīng)選B

2句意:人們問為什么不在臉書或者是僅僅是微信上發(fā)送我們的問候,而且也很省錢。

考查副詞辨析。completely完全地;recently最近;simply僅僅,只;exactly恰恰,精確地。根據(jù)文意可知,人們覺得用臉書或者微信交流更加的方便,還能省錢,故這里應(yīng)用simply表示加強(qiáng)語氣。故選C。

3句意:對(duì)于我來說,寫信與其說是現(xiàn)代的怪癖,不如說是一種自然的習(xí)慣。

考查形容詞辨析。natural自然的;boring 無聊的;crazy瘋狂的;national全國的。根據(jù)下句話I, an experienced letter writer. can tell you that writing letters brings me more emotional(情感的) communication可知,作者是一個(gè)有經(jīng)驗(yàn)的作家,他覺得寫信能給他帶來更多情感的交流,所以寫信是他自然的習(xí)慣。故應(yīng)選A

4句意:加利福尼亞州立大學(xué)的一些教授們發(fā)現(xiàn)電子設(shè)備,例如智能手機(jī),可以在很多方面極大地影響人們。

考查名詞辨析。composers作曲家;visitors參觀者,來訪者;inventors發(fā)明家;professors教授。根據(jù)空后in California State University“加利福尼亞州立大學(xué)”可知,這里應(yīng)指大學(xué)里的教授發(fā)現(xiàn)。故應(yīng)選D。

5句意:這樣的設(shè)備阻止了人們傳播他們內(nèi)心的感情。

考查動(dòng)詞辨析。discovering發(fā)現(xiàn);shaking搖動(dòng),震動(dòng);spreading傳達(dá),傳播;refusing拒絕。根據(jù)空后的their inner feelings以及下文And we are ___7___ to show our emotions fully.可知,這里表達(dá)“傳達(dá)我們的感情”,故應(yīng)選C。

6句意:當(dāng)我們書寫的時(shí)候,我們就給了大腦機(jī)會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)我們以前沒有看到的事物之間的聯(lián)系?疾檫B詞辨析。When當(dāng)時(shí)候;Before之前;Till直到時(shí)候;Though盡管,雖然。根據(jù)句意可知,大腦發(fā)現(xiàn)事物之間的聯(lián)系,應(yīng)該是在我們書寫的時(shí)候發(fā)生的,故應(yīng)選A。

7句意:而且我們也被迫地完整地表達(dá)我們的感情。

考查動(dòng)詞辨析。recommended推薦,介紹;encouraged鼓勵(lì);invited邀請(qǐng);forced強(qiáng)迫,迫使。根據(jù)文意可知,在書寫的過程中,大腦會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)我們以前沒有看到的事物之間的聯(lián)系,這樣我們就不得不完整地表達(dá)我們的感情。故應(yīng)選D。

8句意:如果我在這里告訴你我為什么喜歡寫信,原因之一是那種觸摸的感覺—我的手滑過書頁,筆在紙上滑動(dòng)的感覺,以及感覺墨水在空氣中的氣味。

考查名詞辨析。customs風(fēng)俗;reasons原因;challenges挑戰(zhàn);achievements獲得,成就。根據(jù)句中If I am here to tell you why I love writing letters“如果我告訴你為什么”,所以這里說的是原因,故應(yīng)選B。

9句意:如果我在這里告訴你我為什么喜歡寫信,原因之一是那種觸摸的感覺—我的手滑過書頁,筆在紙上滑動(dòng)的感覺,以及感覺墨水在空氣中的氣味。

考查名詞辨析。colour顏色;quality質(zhì)量;smell氣味;price價(jià)格。根據(jù)空后of ink (墨水) in the air可知,這里應(yīng)指“墨水在空氣中的氣味”,故應(yīng)選C。

10句意:事實(shí)證明你的語言和信件本身都能幫助你表達(dá)你的感情。

考查動(dòng)詞短語辨析。gives out發(fā)出;分發(fā);breaks out爆發(fā);comes out出來,出版;turns out結(jié)果是,證明是。根據(jù)句意可知,這里考查的是一個(gè)固定句型It turns out that…“結(jié)果是,證明是”。故應(yīng)選D。

這篇短文中作者介紹了電子設(shè)備對(duì)人們表達(dá)思想感情的限制,以及自己還是喜歡寫信這種方式來與人交流的原因。短文內(nèi)容貼近現(xiàn)實(shí)生活,比較容易理解。題型是完形填空,考查學(xué)生們?cè)诰唧w語境中運(yùn)用語言的能力,綜合性較強(qiáng)。做題時(shí),應(yīng)先通讀短文,了解大意;然后根據(jù)上下文語境做題,先易后難,注意空前后的固定搭配,并仔細(xì)辨析選項(xiàng)中單詞的意思和用法;最后將答案代入原文,再讀一遍,檢查答案是否正確。例如第4小題,考查名詞辨析,composers作曲家;visitors參觀者,來訪者;inventors發(fā)明家;professors教授。根據(jù)空后in California State University“加利福尼亞州立大學(xué)”可知,這里應(yīng)指大學(xué)里的教授發(fā)現(xiàn)。故應(yīng)選D。再如第10小題,考查動(dòng)詞短語辨析,gives out發(fā)出;分發(fā);breaks out爆發(fā);comes out出來,出版;turns out結(jié)果是,證明是。根據(jù)句意可知,這里考查的是一個(gè)固定句型It turns out that…“結(jié)果是,證明是”。故應(yīng)選D。
