Did you know that a new weblog is being created each second? Many of these bloggers are teenagers. While their parents wrote in a diary to express their emotions, or shared their interests by spending time with friends, teens are now using blogs instead. In fact, in the US, one in every five school-aged teens has a blog. Most of these are just chatter, some are funny or clever, but a few have become Internet success.
For example, Chloe Spencer’s blog ‘Neopets Fanatic’ gets around 300,000 hits per month. When Chloe was 15, she started the blog out of her strong liking for Neopets, a kind of pet website. One reason her blog has so many visitors is because she gives instructions and tips for the popular pet site.

Then there is Tavi Gevinson’s blog ‘Style Rookie’. It is said to get 1.5 million hits per month. Tavi, who started her blog when she was just 12, puts up her photos of her own clothes online as well as designers’ collections. Tavi’s blog has caught on because she knows a lot about style for someone so young, and she is not afraid to try out unusual clothes or see things in a different way.
Blogs like these are interesting, but they only become really popular after better-known websites link to them or they get noticed by the media(傳媒). For example, Tavi’s blog became an overnight(一夜之間) success after being written about in The New York Times. Popular blogs can even earn money, usually from advertisements that companies pay to put up on the bloggers’ sites.
So for some, blogging is just a recreation(消遣), but for others, it can become a source of income and even a full-time job!

試題分析:這篇短文講述的是現(xiàn)在很多青少年都寫博客,一些人的博客還非常的受歡迎,有很高的點(diǎn)擊率,文章中給出了兩個(gè)例子。這些博客之所以成功是有原因的,不僅有網(wǎng)站的鏈接和媒體的關(guān)注,更有巨大的商業(yè)利益。
小題1:推理判斷題。這篇文章告訴我們很多青少年都有微博,他們經(jīng)常在微博上討論一些有趣的事情,或是抒發(fā)自己的情感。所以現(xiàn)在的年輕人要比他們的父母有更多的交流方式。故選A。B選項(xiàng)意為青少年比他們的父母分享更多的感情,這不是文章的主要內(nèi)容;C選項(xiàng)意為現(xiàn)在的青少年比他們的父母更經(jīng)常寫日記,這個(gè)表述不符合文意;D選項(xiàng)意為青少年交的朋友更多,這也不是文章的主要內(nèi)容。
小題2:詞意猜測(cè)題。這個(gè)單詞在文章的第一段最后一句話Most of these are just chatter, some are funny or clever, but a few have become Internet success.,因?yàn)榫渲幸殉霈F(xiàn)了funny和clever兩詞,故這里我們可以排除A、B;C選項(xiàng)意為嚴(yán)肅的,認(rèn)真的;D選項(xiàng)意為不重要的。因?yàn)檫@句話告訴我們大部分的人都只是聊天,還有一些是有趣的,聰明的,很少能在網(wǎng)上成功的。故這里應(yīng)該是說在微博上他們討論的話題是不重要的。故選D。
小題3:推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章的第二段和第三段我們可知,這兩個(gè)人都是比較成功的青少年博主,Chloe Spencer是一個(gè)寵物愛好者,而Tavi Gevinson熱愛時(shí)尚。故選B。
小題4:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章的第二段When Chloe was 15, she started the blog out of her strong liking for Neopets, a kind of pet website可知,Chloe非常喜歡這個(gè)寵物網(wǎng)站Neopets,故她是一個(gè)寵物愛好者。故選B。
小題5:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章的最后一段內(nèi)容可知,Tavi’s blog became an overnight(一夜之間) success Tavi的博客一夜之間出名了,故C是正確的。根據(jù)文章第三段的第一句話可知Tavi Gevinson的博客每個(gè)月有150萬的點(diǎn)擊率,可見她的博客是非常出名的,故排除A;B、D兩項(xiàng)在文中沒有提到。故選C。
小題6:主旨大意題。這篇短文主要給我們講述的是現(xiàn)在很多青少年都有博客,并且還有一些人的博客很有名,這些人的成功是因?yàn)橛芯W(wǎng)站的鏈接,或者有傳媒的注意。這些受歡迎的博客還能通過博主網(wǎng)頁上的廣告來賺錢。故選D。

閱讀短文,按要求完成短文后的各項(xiàng)任務(wù)。
The holiday’s upon us.After months of study, you have some time to yourself.So, why not read a book? Well, some people will say, “Why trouble with books? We have the Internet and other media(媒體)that offer a lot more colorful programs.Books are history!”
But don’t be fooled.There’s still a lot to be said for reading-and reading as widely as possible.
One clear reason is that a well-chosen _________is a wonderful collection of _______ and expressions, so long as you have a good dictionary, of course.Believe me, it’s far easier to get new English words and expressions from a book or article than it is from the TV or the Internet.
But an even more important point is that books give you something that modern media simply can not. The webpage(網(wǎng)頁)is always full of pictures and the text is often designed(設(shè)計(jì)) to make it as easy to read as possible.Though “easy” may be welcome, unluckily it’s of little use for any long-time development of reading skills and the general language level.For that, there’s still no substitute(替代品)for a book.
But perhaps the best single reason is that simply choosing what you read and doing it by yourself means that it’s something you do by and for yourself.You can choose what you want to read.It’s hard work, but while you are reading, you’ll find that what once seemed like a duty is now a pleasure.Reading can bring us great pleasure.
小題1:在(1)處空白處填上適當(dāng)?shù)脑~使句義完整、上下文通順。_______  _________

Natasha Shykes is a mother of two kids in America. When her daughter, Kelsey, was only two years old, she became interested in her father’s iphone. “She pressed the button (按鈕) and the phone lit up.
