课时质量评价(九)必修第二册　UNIT 3主题语境：科技发展与信息技术创新，科学精神，信息安全Ⅰ．阅读理解A(2023·德州模拟)Where should you live? How should you spend your time? For centuries, people have relied on their instincts to figure out the answers to these life­changing questions．But there is a better way now．We are living through a data explosion, as vast amounts of information about all aspects of human behaviour have become more and more accessible．We can use this big data to help determine the best course to chart．Researchers have found algorithms (算法) can be much better than people at making difficult decisions．The power of data analysis has been proved in the sports and business worlds, too．As made famous by the book and movie Moneyball, baseball teams found that algorithms were better than managers at picking strategies．But statistics (统计数据) have had surprisingly little impact on our personal lives．One major problem is that good data about life's biggest personal questions has been difficult to gain．Consider this question: what makes people happy? Some have revealed the activities that provide far more enjoyment than most of us would have guessed, such as exercising, going to a museum and gardening．Then there are the things that give us less pleasure than we might assume, such as playing video games, watching TV and browsing the Internet．Another way to be happier is moving house．They found that when people moved from an unhappy city to a happier place, their overall mood improved．There are early days of the data revolution in personal decision­making．A study of tens of millions of children has found the places that increase their future earnings most．Another shows certain cities can improve one's life expectancy．I am not claiming that we can completely base our lifestyle choices on algorithms, though we might get to that point in the future．I am claiming instead that we can all dramatically improve our decision­making by consulting evidence from millions of people who faced dilemmas similar to ours via big data．1．How can people make better decisions now?A．By doing plenty of interviews．B．By relying on accessible big data．C．By using common sense of life．D．By following others' life behaviour．2．Why is the movie Moneyball mentioned in Paragraph 2?A．To suggest managers handle their players．B．To inform data can improve players' skills．C．To show baseball is popular in sports world．D．To prove algorithms can make better decisions．3．What makes people happier than we guess according to Paragraph 3?A．Visiting a museum．B．Surfing the Internet．C．Playing video games．D．Moving to a bigger city．4．What does the author conclude in the end?A．The big data can increase our future earnings．B．The big data can prolong our life expectancy．C．We can improve decision­making via big data．D．We can develop our lifestyle in different ways． B(2023·泰州模拟)Since the early to mid­2010s, social media apps have made a permanent home in many people's phones, and spending time on social media has become as much of a daily activity as drinking water．Since so many people are on it for much of their days — especially kids, teens, and young adults — there is increased concern over what social media is doing to people．Many argue that social media is an unhealthy way to pass the time, and that false information from online is causing confusion and panic．This type of thing happens with every generation when something new that people don't understand comes along．So many people thought rock and roll was making teens morally bad, which really wasn't the case．It is fair to say that the teenage years are hard, and that teens need an escape．Back before phones, teens would listen to rock music as a form of escapism, or they would watch TV, go to the movies, skate around, or dress up in crazy clothes．Unfortunately, all of those things at one point in time were blamed for being a bad influence on young people．Social media is the new rock and roll: it's a new thing, and people demonise (妖魔化) change．For example, many believe that everything on social media apps is filtered (加滤镜) and that seeing perfect people and their perfectly edited lives often leads to lots of negative emotions．However, models, magazines and movies have been using retouching (修整) tools for photos and media since Photoshop and other post­production services were invented．Social media has made it easier to see more edited pictures, but social media itself isn't making people want to look a certain way．People should acknowledge that these pictures aren't authentic, and the posts are made to look good on purpose．Social media is not to blame for body confidence issues when the things people want to look like aren't even real in the first place．It seems like most issues around social media are user errors, like anyone complaining there are too many people being addicted to social media．However, not everyone is addicted to social media; people who have any grasp on reality wouldn't spend every waking second on the phone．It is really up to the individual how they use social media．Keeping up with the flood of posts, stories, and photos takes a lot of time — many young people admit that they spend hours on their phones every day．Yet, this seems like an easy problem to solve when the solution is simply clicking off the phone a couple hours early．So it is clear that moderation is the key to dealing with all the issues around social media．5．Why does the author mention “rock and roll”in Paragraph 2?A．To predict the future of social media．B．To underline the advantages of social media．C．To analyse why social media is so popular today．D．To explain why social media is regarded as negative．6．What does the author think of posting edited photos on social media apps?A．Disturbing．　　 B．Understandable．C．Intolerable．    D．Innovative．7．What does the text suggest people do about social media?A．Make the best use of it．B．Completely stay away from it．C．Prohibit young people from using it．D．Spend reasonable amounts of time on it．8．Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A．What makes us so addicted to social media?B．Why is social media so popular among teenagers?C．Should we depend on social media for information?D．Is it right to blame social media for all the problems?Ⅱ．语法填空What makes something a sport?
