發(fā)生了一個(gè)奇跡?？芍?，前后兩句存在轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，故選B。

“symbols”。故選Fo

5.【解析】選D。該段是對(duì)全文內(nèi)容的總結(jié)。即美國(guó)是一個(gè)具有多樣性和統(tǒng)一

【文章大意】這是一篇說(shuō)明文。一項(xiàng)新的研究表明，紙質(zhì)書(shū)更適合做睡前讀物，

它可以讓父母與孩子之間擁有更多的溝通與交流，雖然技術(shù)的進(jìn)步看起來(lái)不可

阻擋，但是電子書(shū)取代傳統(tǒng)的紙質(zhì)書(shū)可能還有很長(zhǎng)的路要走。

5.Whatbookscanmakeparentsandchildrenknoweachotherbetter?

A.Printedbooks.B.Basice-books.

C.Advancede-books.D.Bedtimebooks.

【解析】選A。細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段中的第三句話“Thestudysuggests...”

可知，一本好的紙質(zhì)書(shū)給父母和孩子帶來(lái)的互動(dòng)比使用電子書(shū)閱讀時(shí)帶來(lái)的互

動(dòng)更多。因此，紙質(zhì)書(shū)可以使父母和孩子更好地了解彼此。故選A項(xiàng)。

6.What'sthemeaningoftheunderlinedword“interact“inParagraph1?

A.Communicate.B.Compete.

C.Disagree.D.Agree.

【解析】選A。詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)第一段的最后一句話可知，研究人員發(fā)現(xiàn)，有

了電子書(shū)，父母對(duì)孩子的提問(wèn)減少了，對(duì)故事發(fā)表的看法減少了。這意味著在孩

子使用電子書(shū)閱讀時(shí)父母和孩子的溝通互動(dòng)變少了，因此interact這個(gè)詞意為“溝

通、交流故選A項(xiàng)。

7.Whatcanbeinferredfromthesecondparagraph?

A.E-booksarebetterthanpaperbooks.

B.Theresearchershavereadvariousbooks.

C.Therearethreedifferentkindsofbooksintheworld.

D.Printedbookshelppeoplebetterunderstandthecontents.

【解析】選D。推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段的第三句話“Theresearchers

discovered...和“Moreoften,childrenwouldsaythingslike,...''一句可知，

與紙質(zhì)書(shū)相比，使用電子書(shū)進(jìn)行閱讀，父母和孩子之間的互動(dòng)比閱讀紙質(zhì)書(shū)時(shí)要

少，即使在交流時(shí)，說(shuō)的往往不是閱讀的內(nèi)容，而是將注意力放在了設(shè)備之上。

因此紙質(zhì)書(shū)可以幫助人們更好地理解書(shū)的內(nèi)容。故選D項(xiàng)。

8.Whatmightachildsayifheorsheisreadinge-books?

A.Pleaseturnoffthelight.

B.Pleasecolourthebutton.

C.Don'tturndownthevolume.

D.Don'tpassthebooktome.

【解析】選C。細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段最后一句話可知，孩子們更喜歡談?wù)撛O(shè)

備和技術(shù)，而不再關(guān)注閱讀內(nèi)容。孩子們通常會(huì)說(shuō)諸如“不要按那個(gè)按鈕”或“不要

改變音量”之類的東西，而不是問(wèn)有關(guān)于閱讀內(nèi)容的問(wèn)題。所以如果一個(gè)孩子在

看電子書(shū)，他或她會(huì)說(shuō)不要把音量調(diào)小。故選C項(xiàng)。
