20、 a passage with ten blanks. You are required to select one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage. Read the passage through carefully before making your choices. Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter. Please mark the corresponding letter for

21、 each item on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre. You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.In the past 12 months, Nigeria has suffered from a shrinking economy, a sliding currency, and a prolonged fuel shortage. Now, Africas largest economy in facing a food crisi

22、s as major tomato fields have been destroyed by an insect, leading to a nationwide shortage and escalating prices.The insect, Tutaabsoluta, has destroyed 80% of farms in Kaduna, Nigerias largest tomato-producing state, leading the government there to declare a state of _26_. The insect, also known a

23、s the tomato leaf miner, devastates crops by _27_ on fruits and digging into and moving through stalks. It _28_incredibly quickly, breeding up to 12 generations per year if conditions are favorable. It is believed to have _29_ in South America in the early 1900s, and later spread to Europe before cr

24、ossing over to sub-Saharan Africa.In Nigeria, where tomatoes are a staple of local diets, the insects effects are devastating. Retail prices for a _30_ of tomatoes at local markets have risen from $0.50 to $2.50. Farmers are reporting steep losses and a new $20 million tomato-paste factory has _31_

25、production due to the shortages.Given the moths ability also to attack crops like pepper and potatoes, Audu Ogbeh, Nigerias minister of agriculture, has warned that the pest may create serious problems for food _32_ in the country. Ogbeh says experts are investigating how to control the pests damage

26、 and prevent its spread, which has gone largely _33_ until now.Despite being the continents second-largest producer of tomatoes, Nigeria is _34_ on $1 billion worth of tomato-paste imports every year, as around 75% of the local harvest goes to waste thanks to a lack of proper storage facilities. A f

27、urther _35_ in local supplies is yet another unwelcome setback to the industry.A) dependent B) embarking C) emergency D) feeding E) grazes F) halted G) handful H) multitude I) originated J) reduction K) reproduces L) security M) terror N) unchecked O) uncheckedSection BDirections:In this section, yo

28、u are going to read a passage with ten statements attached to it. Each statement contains information given in one of the paragraphs. Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions

29、by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.Whos Really Addicting You To Technology?A. Nearly everyone I know is addicted in some measure to the Internet, wrote Tony Schwartz in The New York Times. Its a common complaint these days. A steady stream of similar headlines accuse the Net and i

30、ts offspring apps, social media sites and online games of addicting us to distraction.B. Theres little doubt that nearly everyone who comes in contact with the Net has difficulty disconnecting. Many of us, like Schwartz, struggle to stay focused on tasks that require more concentration than it takes

31、 to post a status update. As one person ironically put it in the comments section of Schwartzs online article, As I was reading this very excellent article, I stopped at least half a dozen times to check my email.C. Theres something different about this technology: it is both invasive and persuasive

32、. But whos at fault for its overuse? To find solutions, its important to understand what were dealing with. There are four parties conspiring to keep you connected: the tech, your boss, your friends and you.D. The technologies themselves, and their makers, are the easiest suspects to blame for our d

33、iminishing attention spans. Nicholas Carr, author of The Shallows: What the Internet Is Doing to Our Brains, wrote, The net is designed to be an interruption system, a machine geared to dividing attention.E. Online services like Facebook, Twitter and the like, are called out as masters of manipulati

34、onmaking products so good that people cant stop using them. After studying these products for several years, I wrote a book about how they do it. I learned it all starts with the business model. Since these services rely on advertising revenue, the more frequently you use them, the more money they m

35、ake. Its no wonder these companies employ teams of people focused on engineering their services to be as engaging as possible. These products arent habit-forming by chance; its by design. They have an incentive to keep us hooked.F. However, as good as these services are, there are simple steps we ca

36、n take to keep them at bay. For example, we can change how often we receive the distracting notifications that trigger our urge to check. According to Adam Marchick, CEO of mobile marketing company kahuna, less than 15 percent of smartphone users ever bother to adjust their notification settingsmean

37、ing the remaining 85 percent of us default to the app makers every preset trigger. Google and Apple have made it far too difficult to adjust these settings so its up to us to take steps ensure we set these triggers to suit our own needs, not the needs of the app makers.G. While companies like Facebo

38、ok harvest attention to generate revenue from advertisers, other technologies have no such agenda. Take email, for example. This system couldnt care less how often you use it. Yet to many, email is the most habit-forming medium of all. We check email at all hours of the daywere obsessed. But why? Be

39、cause thats what the boss wants. For almost all white-collar jobs, email is the primary tool of corporate communication. A slow response to a message could hurt not only your reputation but also your livelihood.H. Your friends are also responsible for the addiction. Think about this familiar scene.

40、People gathered around a table, enjoying food and each others company. Theres laughter and a bit of kidding. Then, during an interval in the conversation, someone takes out their phone to check who knows what. Barely anyone notices and no one says a thing.I. Now, imagine the same dinner, but instead

41、 of checking their phone, the person belches (打嗝)loudly. Everyone notices. Unless the meal takes place in a beer house, this is considered bad manners. The impolite act violates the basic rules of etiquette. One has to wonder: why dont we apply the same social norms to checking phones during meals,

42、meetings and conversations as we do to other antisocial behaviors? Somehow, we accept it and say nothing when someone offends.J. The reality is, taking ones phone out at the wrong time is worse than belching because, unlike other minor offense, checking tech is contagious. Once one person looks at t

43、heir phone, other people feel compelled to do the same, starting a chain reaction. The more people are on their phones, the fewer people are talking until finally youre the only one left not reading email or checking Twitter. From a societal perspective, phone checking is less like belching in publi

44、c and more like another bad habit. Our phones are like cigarettessomething to do when were anxious, bored or when our fingers need something to toy with. Seeing others enjoy a smoke, or sneak a quick glance, is too tempting to resist and soon everyone is doing it.K. The technology, your boss, and your friends, all influence how often you find yourself using (or overusing) these gadgets. But theres still someone who deserves scrutinythe person holding the phone.L. I have a confession. Even though I study habit-forming technology for a liv
