本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述了在这个科技迅猛开展的时代，随着各种各样电子产品和通讯工具的出现，人与人之间的联系已经越来越依靠这些高科技产品，独处似乎已经成为不可能的事情。不管你喜不喜欢，如果没有科技的进步，很难想象未来的生活会是什么样子。1A.updated Breceived Cshared Dcollected答案C本段第一句话句意：在这个数字世界，独处几乎是不存在的。所以本句表达的意思是有了电子邮件、社会网络等这些通讯工具，信息意味着被互相分享(share)。update更新；receive得到收到；collect 收集。2A.though Buntil Conce Dbefore答案C一旦你放弃了独处，那么就很难再找回来。此处用连词once引导条件状语从句，符合语境。though尽管，引导让步状语从句； until直到，引导时间状语从句；before在之前，引导时间状语从句。3A.respected Bshaped Cignored Dpreserved答案B新技术应是塑造(shape)而不是尊重(respect)、无视(ignore)或保护(preserve)我们的文化。 4A.edge Bstage Cend Dbalance答案C既然想与他人有联系，那自然就会结束独处的境地。bring sth to an end使结束，为固定表达。5A.sensitive Bintelligent Cconsiderate Dreachable答案D在这个网络相连的世界，找到一个人是如此容易。此处用reachable(可获得的，可到达的)来表达人很容易被找到。sensitive敏感的；intelligent聪明的，有才智的；considerate体贴的，体谅的。6A.even if Bonly if Cas if Dif only答案A由空格前的one can often be contacted(一个人经常会被联系到)与空格后的they'd rather not be可知，空格处表示“即使(even if)。7A.media Bcomputers Cdatabases Dmonitors答案B我们能交谈、发短信、发电子邮件、聊天和写博客，除了后面提到的能用 做到之外，当然就是电脑(computer)了。8A.bent Bhard Ckeen Ddependent答案D既然大多数兴旺国家习惯了这种数字技术，所以人们就变得依赖它们。become dependent on为固定搭配，意为“变得依赖/依靠。9A.finding Busing Cprotecting Dchanging答案B在这种情况下，不使用(using)数字技术那么使他们显得像旁观者、局外人。本处为动名词短语作主语。10A.Also BInstead COtherwise DSomehow答案A除了上文提到的人们已经习惯了数字技术外，许多工作和职业也(also)需要人们互相联系。11A.connected Btrained Crecommended Dinterested答案A许多工作和职业也需要人们互相联系(to be connected)。其他选项用在此处的话句意不通顺。12A.pleasure Bbenefit Cburden Ddisappointment答案C下文提到的是那些不想被联系到的人，所以能够被reachable对他们来说自然就是一种负担(burden)。13A.slightly Bhardly Cmerely Dreally答案Dsolitude is still possible(独处仍然是可能的)自然是对那些真正(really)想要独处的人来说的，而不是slightly(稍微地)，hardly(几乎不)，merely(仅仅)。14A.out Bdown Cup Din答案B想要独处，就把电脑关掉， 也可被关掉。shut out不让进入；shut down关闭；shut up住口，监禁；shut in把关在房内。15A.aspects

the busy day ahead.But at least you know that the stress won't damage your health，for this is no ordinary set of clothes you are wearing.Set within the fabric are numerous sensors，constantly monitoring your vital signs.If danger signs are detected，the garment is programmed to contact your doctorand send a text message telling you to take it easy.Garments that can measure a wearer's body temperature or trace his or her heart activity are just entering the market，but the European project BIOTEX weaves new functions into smart textiles.Miniaturized biosensors in a textile patch can now analyze body fluids，even a tiny drop of sweat，and provide a much better assessment of someone's health.Jean Luprano is a researcher at the Swiss Centre for Electronics and Micro­technology ( CSEM )“One of the most obvious applications for smart fabrics is in the medical field， he says.“There has been a good deal of progress with physiological measurements，body temperature or electro­cardiograms.But no one has yet developed biochemical sensing techniques that can take measurements from fluids like sweat and blood.We are developing a suite of sensors that can be integrated into a textile patch.The patch is a sensing and processing unit，adaptable to target different body fluids and biochemical species.At the very least，some basic biochemical analyses could complement the physiological measurements that can already be monitored.In some circumstances，fluidic analysis may be the only way to get information on a patient's health status.Notes：vital adj.生命的textile n纺织品fluid

阅读理解(每题2分，总分值8分)高考曾用材料：湖南卷C篇选材相似度：设题相似度：难度系数：Ever since the world was introduced to Dolly，the cloned sheep，in 1997，various fears have been expressed that researchers would be tempted to apply to humans the techniques that were used to produce her.Some objections have been practical; many scientists have warned that these techniques remain too dangerous.Others have focused on the unpredictable psychosocial consequences of producing humans that are genetically identical to other individuals.But the strongest opposition has been based on a moral certainty that，whatever the practical risks involved，producing carbon copies of human beings is ethically unacceptable.The United Nations faces an opportunity to turn this moral certainty into international law when a committee takes up discussion of a possible treaty that would make what is known as “reproductive cloning a criminal offence.Building on a long line of international treaties targeting unethical practices，from human slavery to the use of biological weapons，the United Nations is likely to be asked to approve a new agreement that would place human cloning in the same category.In this case，however，the United Nations is in danger of shooting itself in the foot.For the debate over the outlawing of reproductive cloning has been hijacked by those whose principal goal is different.To achieve this，they are seeking to have the proposed ban extended to cover not only the reproductive cloning of human beings，but so­called “therapeutic cloning as well.This involves growing fertilised embryos for several days，and then extracting from them cells that might later be used as replacement tissue or organs for other individuals.Notes：ethically adv.伦理上unethical adj.不道德的therapeutic adj.治疗的hijack vt.劫持长短句分析：Ever since the world was introduced to Dolly，the cloned sheep，in 1997，various fears have been expressed that researchers would be tempted to apply to humans the techniques that were used to produce her.句法点睛：本句中，since引导时间状语从句，第一个that引导同位语从句，修饰fears；第二个that引导定语从句，修饰techniques。句意：自从1997年世界上第一次有了多利羊，人们表示出了各种担忧，担忧研究者会受诱惑把克隆羊的技术用到人类身上。【语篇解读】 克隆羊多利出现以后，人们担忧研究者会被利益驱动去克隆人。一个委员会想敦促联合国就再生性克隆提出法律上的限制，但是这里面也出现了麻烦。如果这条法律通过了，医疗克隆也就被禁止了。1What was the fear of people after Dolly，the cloned sheep?AThey feared that the sheep would die soon.BTechniques to clone animals were dangerous.CResearchers would clone human beings.DResearchers would produce therapeutic cloning.答案C细节理解题。从“various fears have been expressed that researchers would be tempted to apply to humans the techniques that were used to produce her我们知道，克隆羊出现后，人们的担忧是，研究者会被利益驱动着去克隆人。2What does the underlined word “identical in the first paragraph mean?ADifferent. BSimilar in looks.CSpecial. DHarmful.答案B词义猜想题。联系后面的“to other individuals，再结合克隆的特点可知，他们担忧克隆出来的人与其他人在外观上是一样的。3What's the committee's treaty about cloning?AAny activity of cloning humans is a criminal offence.BReproductive cloning would be a criminal offence.CCloning should be banned now.DThe use of biological weapons is allowed.答案B细节理解题。从“a committee takes up discussion of a possible treaty that would make what is known as reproductive cloninga criminal offence可以知道，委员会在讨论关于再生性克隆是违法的条约。4If there is a treaty to ban reproductive cloning _.Ait is likely to clone humans at presentBcloning will bring unethical problemsCit is still a problem how we make scientific research by cloningDtherapeutic cloning will also be banned答案D细节理解题。从“To achieve this，they are seeking to have the proposed ban extended to cover not only the reproductive cloning of human beings，but so­calledtherapeutic cloningas well.可知，如果这个条约实施，不仅克隆人是犯罪，连医疗克隆也是犯罪。
