答案:
63-66ACAD
难度:
中等
解析:
本文为说明文。
本文介绍了现在印刷的书籍过时了,如果你想提高你的阅读体验,就去买一个电子阅读器。
电子阅读器优于印刷书籍,因为电子阅读器本身很小,易拿,容量大。
它们节省空间,环保,提供了印刷书籍所没有的阅读技巧和工具,如调整字体,字形和间距、随意跳到指定的位置等。
【63题详解】
推理判断题。
根据第一段中的“has-beens,old-timers,antiques,fossils”以及后面的“E-readersarereplacingthebooksofold”可知,这些词都是说“已过时”了,分析选项A.outdated过时了;B.typical典型有;C.meaningful有意义的;D.useless没有的。
可知,A符合题意,故选A。
【64题详解】
推理判断题。
第三段中“E-readersputprintedbookstoshame.E-readersaresuperiortoprintedbooksbecausetheysavespace,”和第四段“Theaveragee-readercanstorethousandsofdigitalbooks,providingagenuinelibraryatyourfingertips.Whatismore,thee-readeritselfisverysmall.Itiseasytoholdandcanfitinapocketbookorbriefcaseeasily”尤其是“ThismakeshandlingwoodengiantsuchasWarandPeaceandAnnaKareninaabreeze.”,可知,电子阅读器节省了空间,环保,容量大。
而且电子阅读器体积小,易拿和存贮。
这使得处理像《战争与和平》和《安娜·卡列尼娜》这样的庞大的笨重的巨人变得轻而易举。
由此可推断出印刷版的《战争与和平》和《安娜·卡列尼娜》是笨重的。
分析选项可知C符合题意。
【65题详解】
细节理解题。
第六段“Thetypicale-readerallowsitsusertoadjustlettersize,letterformandlinespacing.”可知,典型的电子阅读器允许用户调整字母大小、字体和行距。
第七段“Furthermore,itgrantsuserstheabilitytogetanoverviewofabookandthenjumptoaspecificlocationbasedonthatoverview…themosthelpfulofallistheabilitytogetdictionarydefinitionsatthetouchofafinger.”可知,电子阅读器允许用户跳转到特定位置。
但也许最有用的是能够用手指触摸电子字典就可找到答案。
选项①linespacingcustomization行间距自定义;②theabilitytoquicklyjumptotheendofabook快速跳到书尾的能力;③accesstoaprinteddictionaryatthetouchofafinger用手指接触印刷体的字典。
分析可知,①和②是正确的,故选A。
【66题详解】
细节理解题。
根据第三段“E-readersputprintedbookstoshame.E-readersaresuperiortoprintedbooksbecausetheysavespace,areenvironmentallyfriendlyandprovidehelpfulreadingtipsandtoolsthatprintedbooksdonot”可知“电子阅读器使印刷书籍相形见绌。
电子阅读器优于印刷书籍,因为它们节省空间,环保,提供了印刷书籍所没有的有用的阅读技巧和工具。
”分析选项可知D项符合题意,故选D。
