A
I could feel the judging eyes of my family burning a hole into the back of my head as I picked up my phone. All of a sudden, the chattering in the living room died and all I could hear was the sound of the turkey sizzling (发出嘶嘶声) in the oven.
“Look at her! She’s been on her phone all day long! It’s all your fault! Children will never respect elders if they are not taught how to b ehave! ” my grandmother shouted.
I was very shocked and angry! I opened my mouth to say something, but words failed me and I just sat down quietly on the chair like a mouse in its trap. I thought “Here we go again.” I truly love my family and I would do an ything for them. I also know that they would do anything for me as well. However, there are moments that make me feel like they are just stuck with me. They all agree on one thing: technology is wrecking me.
If I am going to be treated like a child or completely ignored, I will most likely not enjoy your company, and I feel like this applies to (适用于） the majority of the people. So I sometimes simply shut myself in my room and listened to the voices coming from the living room, thinking: They all grew up in a world so different that it amazes me how they have actually gotten this far. They did not have phones or any type of advanced technology, which is both good and bad. Bad because they had almost no type of fast communication, and good because they were forced to interact (互动) with one another, which is something today’s society is lacking in. However, maybe if they made an effort to be aware of how things work nowadays, they would not be so against everything.

D. to move out or break away from her family
4. The author uses the last paragraph to show that ________.

【答案】1. B 2. C 3. C 4. A
【解析】本文阐述了作者与家人缺乏沟通，在手机等科技产品的使用上出现分歧，相处出现矛盾的烦恼。
1. 细节理解题。根据第一段All of a sudden, the chattering in the living room died 可知，作者拿起电话后，家人就停止聊天了。故选B。...
2. 猜测词义题。通过上下文尤其是祖母的话可知，作者的家人认为她成天玩手机，不懂得尊重长辈，因此可以推断他们认为科技正在毁掉她，故选C。
【名师点睛】猜测词义题主要的解题策略有：
利用词根、前后缀与合成词推断词义。
读懂单词所在句子或前后句意思，猜测词义。
注意标点符号的提示作用，如破折号、冒号、引号。
除了以上几点，有时需要通过上下文理解文章大意，帮助推测词义。如本题无法用构词法也无法根据单词所在的句子判断词义，只能在通篇理解全文的基础上，根据家人对作者使用手机的态度，推测出家人的观点应该是科技正在一步步地毁掉她，从而猜出词义。
3. 推理判断题。根据第三段However, there are moments that make me feel like they are
just stuck with me.（然而，有时候我感觉他们只是摆脱不了我而已。）和第四段If I am going to be treated like a child or completely ignored, I will most likely not enjoy your company,（此处company意为“陪伴”）可以推测，作者在某种程度上认为和家人相处很难。
4. 段落大意题。题目问的是最后一段作者想表达什么，即最后一段的大意。根据最后一段If
I am going to be treated like a child or completely ignored, I will most likely not enjoy your company和So I sometimes simply shut myself in my room and listened to the voices coming from the living room可知，作者受到家人的忽略，宁愿自己待在房间里听家人说话，说明她与家人缺乏沟通，再根据最后一句However, maybe if they made an effort to be aware of how things work nowadays, they would not be so against everything.可知，如果家人努力去理解当今世界是如何运作的，他们就不会反对一切与科技有关的事物。综合起来，作者想表达的是如果自己和家人能够很好地沟通，他们就不会有那么反对科技产品，即加强家人间的沟通很重要。

推断某一段的写作意图需要理解整段大意，抓住中心，然后分析各个选项的中心加以对比。
B
My daughter Kelly is a cautious person. She needs to warm up to situations, and is hesitant(犹豫的) to try new things. When with close friends, she becomes a leader who laughs loudly and chants. But when that comfort zone is not around her, she is shy and nervous.
This has been challenging for me at times. “Shy” is not a word that I think has ever been used to describe me. But this has been a year of firsts for my girl that has filled her with a new sense of confidence. This year she moved to lap lane (习泳区） in swimming where she was preparing for a swim team. This year she learned to ride a bike without training wheels. And this year she completed her first kids’ triathlon (三项全能).
On Saturday, with a thunderstorm coming soon and my son’s birthday party later in the day, we all went out in the dark of the morning for Kelly to participate in her first triathlon. We practiced transitions from swim to bike to run with her, we got all the equipment she'd need, and we kept talking about the race. But as we waited the two hours for the older kids to finish before her turn, she held my leg a little
