[语篇导读] 这是一篇说明文。介绍了代沟产生的原因以及代沟带来的利与弊。 [答案与解析] 44.which。考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知,oneof...isthechoiceofclothes是定语从句,修饰先行词determinants,指物,引导词在从句中做of的宾语,应该用关系代词which。 45.worn。考查非谓语动词。theones指的是theclothes。wear与其逻辑主语theones之间为被动关系,故应用过去分词做后置定语。故填worn。 46.the。考查冠词。句意:另一个明显的决定因素是不同代的人使用的技术量。表示“……的量”,应该用theamountof...,故填定冠词the。 47.newest。考查形容词的最高级。句意:今天,较年轻的一代人使用最新的技术。根据空前的the和语境可知,空处应用形容词的最高级。故填newest。 48.by。考查介词。句意:他们认为,仅仅通过点击按钮就可以完成任何事情。表示“通过某种方式”,应该用by+动词ing形式做方式状语。故填by。 49.isquestioned。考查时态、语态和主谓一致。句意:这个观点受到了老年人的质疑,他们说年轻人太依赖科技而不能自立。该空做谓语。由空后的by以及view与question之间为被动关系可知该句需要用被动语态;且根据文章的时态可知,空处应用一般现在时;同时主语为theview,根据主谓一致原则,该空应填isquestioned。 50.their。考查代词。该空修饰名词ideas,应该用形容词性物主代词,故填their。 51.fortunately。考查副词。由语境可知,空处修饰整个句子,表示“幸运地”,应该用副词。故填fortunately。 52.is。考查主谓一致。主语为overcomingtheirconflicts,动名词做主语,谓语动词应用第三人称单数形式,故填is。 53.todo。考查非谓语动词。根据语境可知,此处表示“需要做某事”, 16 应用needtodosth.结构,故填todo。 六、读后续写 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。 IthadbeensometimesinceJackhadseentheoldman.College,career,andlifeitselfgotintheway.Infact,Jackmovedclearacrossthecountryinpursuitofthedreams.There,intherushofhisbusylife,Jackhadlittletimetothinkaboutthepastandoftennotimetospendwithhiswifeandson.Hewasworkingonhisfuture,andnothingcouldstophim.
