8.One day,I took an underground to work,I saw something that made me very sad.On the tube(underground in London),a mother kept looking at her phone screen and playing a game with her daughter sitting beside her.The little girl,about 5 years old,was talking to her mother about her day,repeating the next stop's name cheerfully,praising her mother's long nails---trying to draw her mother's attention.Her mother just nodded and mumbled"Mm,hm"with her eyes glued to the screen,busy passing the levels of the game.I watched the girl give a final try to at least get her mum to look at her,but it was no use.Then the little girl turned silent.It was a shame the mother didn't notice that.
It broke my heart and got me wondering---what kind of game would make the mother forget she has the most beautiful thing in the world,the human she created,the person she loves with all her heart?What it meant when she couldn't look into her daughter's eyes and even stop to listen to the girl?
Some parents are almost like the teenagers,always on their phones with mindless games or going through Facebook.Perhaps parents have many things to deal with,but sometimes they are everything to their kids.
This is not an isolatedexample.I've seen too many such examples.I might not be a parent myself,and probably still have a long way before becoming one,but I know what I saw isn't right.
The scene used to be seen among teenagers very often when parents complained how their children were crazy about their mobile phones.Look how the situation has changed!The parents have become"technology slaves",that is to say,they can't control themselves while using mobile phones.Now some middle-aged parents hold the best iPhones or Samsung phones,which are probably the only two brands they know.They are playing the simple games with so expensive mobile phones,I'm uncertain whether to laugh or to cry.But my hope is that this storm passes.

32.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A
A.The girl failed to attract her mother's attention.
B.The mother felt sorry after her daughter turned silent.
C.The writer has much experience about being a parent.
D.Middle-aged parents know many brands of mobile phones.
33.The underlined word"isolated"in Paragraph 4 meansB.
A.spreading fast
B.happening once
C.increasing quickly
D.a(chǎn)ppearing suddenly
34.In the passage,the writer mainly wants to expressD.
A.the worries that children are crazy about mobile phones
B.the happiness that parents are now able to use modern technology
C.the sadness that the best smart phones cost parents too much money
D.the hope that parents use new technology like smart phones properly
35.What's the best title of the passage?C
A.Middle-aged parents
B.A scene on the tube
C.Technology slaves
D.Mindless phone games.

分析 全文大意:
一天,我乘地鐵去上班,我看到使我非常傷心的一幕.在地鐵上(倫敦的地鐵)一位母親一直盯著手機屏幕玩游戲,她的女兒就坐在旁邊.這個小女孩大約五歲,在和母親說著她的這一天、開心地重復下一站的站名、稱贊母親的長指甲-----盡量引起母親的注意.她的母親只是點頭含糊地說"嗯,嗯"眼睛盯著屏幕,忙著游戲過關.我看著女孩最后嘗試了一下至少讓母親看她一下,但是沒有用.后來這個小女孩沉默了.這真令人羞恥這位母親并沒有注意到.這一幕令我傷心讓我想知道----什么游戲使這位母親忘記了她擁有的世界上最美好的東西,她創(chuàng)造的人類,她全心全意愛著的人.當她不能看著女兒的眼睛甚至不能停下來聽她說話時這意味著什么.一些父母就像青少年一樣,總是在手機上玩不需要動腦筋的游戲、瀏覽臉書.也許父母有很多事情要處理,但是有時對于孩子來說他們就是一切.這并不是一個個例.我見過許多這樣的例子.我自己沒有為人父母,或許在成為父母之前有很長的路要走,但是我知道我看到的是不對的.這一幕過去常常出現(xiàn)在青少年中,他們的父母抱怨他們的孩子癡迷手機.看這種情況改變了.父母成了"技術奴隸"也就是說他們使用手機時不能控制自己.現(xiàn)在一些中年的父母持有最好的蘋果手機或三星手機,也許他們只知道這兩個品牌.他們用這么昂貴的手機玩這么簡單的游戲.我不確定是該哭還是笑.但是我希望這股風潮過去.

解答 答案:
32、A        推理判斷題          根據(jù)第一段The little girl,about 5 years old,was talking to her mother about her day,repeating the next stop's name cheerfully,praising her mother's long nails---trying to draw her mother's attention.Her mother just nodded and mumbled"Mm,hm"with her eyes glued to the screen,busy passing the levels of the game.I watched the girl give a final try to at least get her mum to look at her,but it was no use.Then the little girl turned silent"這個小女孩大約五歲,在和母親說著她的這一天、開心地重復下一站的站名、稱贊母親的長指甲-----盡量引起母親的注意.她的母親只是點頭含糊地說"嗯,嗯"眼睛盯著屏幕,忙著游戲過關.我看著女孩最后嘗試了一下至少讓母親看她一下,但是沒有用.后來這個小女孩沉默了."結合選項A的意思The girl failed to attract her mother's attention"小女孩沒有引起母親的注意"與原文意思相符,故判斷該項正確,故選A.
33、B        詞義猜測題           根據(jù)This is not an isolatedexample."這不是一個…的例子"結合下文句子的意思I've seen too many such examples"我見過許多這樣的例子"可推知isolated意為"單獨的、孤立的"結合選項B、happening once"發(fā)生一次的…"與該詞意思相符,故選B
34、D         內(nèi)容歸納題           根據(jù)短文一開始通過作者在地鐵見到一位母親沉迷于手機游戲,旁邊坐著的女兒想出各種辦法試圖引起母親的注意卻失敗了,作者以這個為例說明了現(xiàn)在社會上這種情況很多,短文中還提到很多父母淪為了"technology slaves",即"技術奴隸"在短文最后作者呼吁But my hope is that this storm passes."但是我希望這股風潮過去"可知在短文中作者主要想表達希望父母能恰當?shù)厥褂孟裰悄苁謾C這樣的新科技,不要沉迷其中淪為奴隸,故選D
35、C         主旨大意題             根據(jù)短文以作者在地鐵上看到的令人傷心的一幕為例,主要講述了現(xiàn)在社會很多父母沉迷于手機游戲,淪為了""technology slaves",即"技術奴隸",結合選項C.Technology slaves符合全文的主旨,故選C
