语篇解读:本文是一篇夹叙夹议文,讲述了Wi-Fi对“我”家生活的影响。 1.A.possible C.positive
B.modest D.huge
解析:选D 根据上下文可知,家里没有Wi-Fi对我们生活的影响是巨大的(huge)。possible“可能的”;modest“谦虚的”;positive“积极的”。
2.A.explored C.improved
B.challenged D.guaranteed
解析:选B 根据前一句“It had a __1__ effect on our lives.”和下文的“But, what will we do?”可知,平时家里离不开Wi-Fi,现在没有了,当然对我们平时的生活方式产生挑战。
explore“探索”;improve“提升”;guarantee“保证”。
3.A.received C.lost
B.booked D.bought
解析:选C 根据下文的“When given the news that there was no Wi-Fi in the house”可知,我们家里失去(lost)Wi-Fi一个多星期。receive“收到”;book“订购”;buy“购买”。
4.A.addicted C.admitted
B.accustomed D.attached
解析:选B 根据第二段第一句“I was raised in the pre-Wi-Fi era”可知,“我”是在没有Wi-Fi的时代长大的,因此对于没有了Wi-Fi也是比较习惯的(accustomed)。be accustomed to表示“习惯于”。
