One is related to what Freud calls the Pleasure Principle, the

23、other to what he calls the Reality Principle. For want of better names, we shall call these two classes immediate reward and delayed reward. In general, the kind of news which may be expected to give immediate reward are news of crime and corruption, accidents and disasters, sports, social events,

24、and human interest. Delayed reward may be expected from news of public affairs, economic matters, social problems, science, education, and health. News of the first kind pays its rewards at once. A reader can enjoy an indirect experience without any of the dangers or stresses involved. He can tremb

25、le wildly at an axe-murder, shake his head sympathetically and safely at a hurricane, identify himself with the winning team, laugh understandingly at a warm little story of children or dogs. News of the second kind, however, pays its rewards later.It sometimes requires the reader to tolerate unple

26、asantness or annoyance—as, for example, when he reads of the threatening foreign situation, the mounting national debt, rising taxes, falling market, scarce housing, and cancer. It has a kind of “threat value”. It is read so that the reader may be informed and prepared. When a reader selects delayed

27、 reward news, he pulls himself into the world of surrounding reality to which he can adapt himself only by hard work. When he selects news of the other kind, he usually withdraws from the world of threatening reality toward the dream world. For any individual, of course, the boundaries of these two

28、 classes are not stable. For example, a sociologist may read news of crime as a social problem, rather than for its immediate reward. A coach may read a sports story for its threat value: he may have to play that team next week. A politician may read an account of his latest successful public meetin

29、g, not for its delayed reward, but very much as his wife reads an account of a party. In any given story of corruption or disaster, a thoughtful reader may receive not only the immediate reward of indirect experience, but also the delayed reward of information and preparedness. Therefore, while the

30、division of categories holds in general, an individual’s tendency may transfer any story from one kind of reading to another, or divide the experience between the two kinds of reward. What News Stories Do You Read？ Division of news stories ·People expect to get 1.____________from reading news. ·

31、News stories are roughly divided into two classes. ·Some news will excite their readers instantly while others won’t. 2.____________ of the two classes ·News of immediate reward will seemingly take their readers to the very frightening scene without actual 3.____________. ·Readers will associate

32、 themselves closely with what happens in the news stories and 4.____________similar feelings with those involved. ·News of delayed reward will make readers suffer, or present a 5.____________ to them. ·News of delayed reward will induce the reader to 6.____________for the reality while news of imm

34、elves to the reality. ·Thus, the division, on the whole, 10.____________on the reader. 【解題導(dǎo)語(yǔ)】　本文是一篇說(shuō)明文，主要介紹了人們選擇瀏覽新聞時(shí)的價(jià)值取向。 1．rewards/rewarded　解析：直接信息題。由文章首句“People select news in expectation of a reward.”可知，空處可填reward的名詞形式，因此這里可以填rewards。同時(shí)它還是動(dòng)詞，get rewarded 可以用來(lái)表示被動(dòng)意義。 2．Explanations　解析：信息概括題。

35、文章的第二、三、四段都是對(duì)兩種取向的解釋，因此本題答案為Explanations。 3．involvement　解析：信息轉(zhuǎn)換題。根據(jù)第三段中的“indirect experience...stresses involved”可知，讀者不用真正參與其中。故本空應(yīng)填名詞involvement“參與”。 4．share　解析：信息概括題。根據(jù)第三段內(nèi)容可知，讀者的反應(yīng)與親身經(jīng)歷者的感受一致，因此讀者共享了他們的體驗(yàn)。share...with...“和……分享”。 5．threat　解析：直接信息題。根據(jù)第四段內(nèi)容，尤其是“It has a kind of ‘threat value’”可知，

36、本題應(yīng)填threat。 6．prepare　解析：信息轉(zhuǎn)換題。根據(jù)第四段內(nèi)容，尤其是“the reader may be informed and prepared”可知，本題應(yīng)填prepare。 7．withdraw　解析：直接信息題。根據(jù)第四段最后一句“When he selects news of the other kind，he usually withdraws from the world of threatening reality toward the dream world.”可知，應(yīng)填withdraw。 8．profession(s)/intention　解析：信息

37、概括題。根據(jù)最后一段中不同職業(yè)的人閱讀新聞時(shí)的不同意圖可知，本題應(yīng)填profession(s)或者intention。 9．a(chǎn)dapt　解析：信息轉(zhuǎn)換題。根據(jù)最后一段中的“a thoughtful reader may receive not only...but also the delayed reward of information and preparedness”可知，他們不但獲取了信息，而且還會(huì)做準(zhǔn)備以便能夠更好地去適應(yīng)現(xiàn)實(shí)。adapt oneself to “使自己適應(yīng)”。 10．depends　解析：信息概括題?？梢钥闯霰揪涫菍?duì)文章大意的總結(jié)。綜合文章所述，不難得出這樣的

38、結(jié)論：閱讀新聞時(shí)的取向取決于讀者本人。因此答案為depends。 B卷 完形填空 Jake Olson lost his left eye when he was eight months old because of a born cancer.__1__it was controlled through treatments，it reappeared and__2__the loss of his right eye.But after years of cheering for his favorite football team，Jake has__3__the imposs

By the time Jennings’ only child

55、was 17, he stopped joining his father. Even though his son is all grown up now, Jennings hasn’t slowed down his efforts. In fact, he has turned his recycling money into something bigger. The Ringgold, Georgia native visits local churches and businesses to collect paper, which he brings to a recycli

56、ng center for money. But instead of putting those earnings in his own bank account, he sends every dollar to Georgia Baptist Children’s Homes & Family Ministries. Once a year, he’ll give the organization a check somewhere between D|S 10，000 and D|S 35，000. By 2016, that tallied up to D|S 400，000. T

57、hese days, Jennings’ recycling has turned into a community effort. After he has made his own rounds recycling paper from businesses and churches, he’ll find more items waiting for him at home. Community members drop off other recyclables at his house so he can sell them, along with books, food, clot

58、hes, and other items to give away. Recycling centers typically pay just one－h(huán)alf to three cents per pound of paper, but Jennings’ visits have added up the big time. In 2016 alone, he sold more than 400，000 pounds of paper and 51，000 aluminum cans(鋁罐)，and collected more than 32，000 pennies. Over the

59、 course of 32 years he has recycled more than 9.8 million pounds of paper, saving an estimated 79，000 trees in the process. Jennings says he’ll continue raising money for charity as long as his health allows. 【解題導(dǎo)語(yǔ)】　文章講述了樂(lè)于助人的Johnny Jennings常年回收廢舊物品資助慈善機(jī)構(gòu)的故事。 1．How old was Johnny Jennings when he
