25、 and Cui have already fallen in love. With the help of Cuis maid Hong Niang, the two continue their romance and break many barriers.The play incorporates much of the beauty of the poetry from the Tang and Song eras in Chinese history.

26、ow of the language. In fact, the play represents a high mark of achievement in romantic Chinese literature, and is quite popular. It has given rise to many sequels and rewritings, and also influenced countless plays, short stories and novels. The Peony Pavilion and Dream of the Red Chamber probably

27、wouldnt exist if it werent for Wangs classic play.The play also inspired generations of artists across various mediums such as woodblock prints, paintings and porcelain. This fine art is still on display at places such as Freer Gallery of Art in the US and Kwun Tongs Sun Museum in Hong Kong.The anci

28、ent porcelain pieces depicting iconic scenes from the tale are indeed impressive.

35、这部经典戏剧，牡丹亭和红室的梦想可能不存在）可知，西厢记早于牡丹亭。故选A。【5题详解】推理判断题。根据倒数第二段的Leung said. “Its surprising to know that centuries ago our ancestors imagined a story like that.

36、事，他们证明了他们不是僵化的或被动的，他们可以有足够的创造力为自己制造东西。”）可推断，人们认为我们的祖先是保守的，缺乏创造力。故选B。【6题详解】词义猜测题。根据下文It has a positive take on marriage, emphasizing that true love should prevail(占上风).（它对婚姻有积极的看法，强调真爱应该占上风），结合句子前半句Romance of the Western Chamber is known for opposing traditional norms associated with marriage and lov

38、KFC because she was frightening customers. Later, KFC announced that no evidence had been found to support the story. This phenomenon is largely a product of the increasing pressure in newsrooms that care more about traffic figures.Brooke Binkowski, an editor, says that, during her career, she has s

39、een a shift towards less editorial oversight in newsrooms. “Clickbait is king, so newsrooms will uncritically print something unreal. Not all newsrooms are like this, but a lot of them are.”Asked what the driving factor was, a journalist said, “Youve an editor breathing down your neck and you have t

40、o meet your targets. And there are some young journalists on the market who are inexperienced and who will not do those checks. So much news that is reported online happens online. There is no need to get out and knock on someones door. You just sit at your desk and do it.”Another journalist says, “

41、There is undoubtedly pressure to churn out(粗制滥造) stories in order to get clicks, because they equal money. At my former employer in particular, the pressure was on due to the limited resources. That made the environment quite horrible to work in.”In a February 2015 report for Digital Journalism, Cra

42、ig Silverman wrote, “Today the bar for what is worth giving attention to seems to be much lower. Within minutes or hours, a badly sourced report can be changed into a story that is repeated by dozens of news websites, resulting in tens of thousands of shares. Once a certain critical mass is reached,

43、 repetition has a powerful effect on belief. Thus, the rumor simply becomes true for readers.” And, in spite of the direction that some newsrooms seem to be heading in, a critical eye is becoming more, not less important, according to the New York Times public editor, Margaret Sullivan. “Reporters a

44、nd editors have to be more careful than ever before. Its extremely important to question and to use every verification(验证) method available before publication.” Yet those working in newsrooms talk of doubtful stories being tolerated because, in the words of some senior editors, “a click is a click,

45、regardless of the advantage of a story”. And, “if the story does turn out to be false, its simply a chance for another bite at the cherry.”Verification and fact-checking are regularly falling victim to the pressure to bring in the numbers, and if the only result of being caught out is another chance

46、 to bring in the clicks, that looks unlikely to change.8. According to Brooke Binkowski, newsrooms produce false news because _.A. clicks matter a lotB. resources are limitedC. money is needed for newsD. journalists lack experience9.

47、Lies cant sell without an atom of truth.B. Rumors are like a flame blown by the wind.C. You can hear rumors, but you cant know them.D. A lie, repeated frequently enough, will end up as truth.10. Whats Margaret Sullivans attitude towards false news online?A. Negative.B. Supportive.C. Skeptical.D. Neu

48、tral.11. What is the passage mainly about?A. Consequences of false stories.B. Causes of online false news.C. Inability of journalists.D. A craze to get clicks.【答案】8. A 9. D 10. A 11. B【解析】本文是说明文。主要介绍了网络上或者报纸上有时会出现某些虚假消息并对其发生原因进行了分析，同时指出对此网站或者报纸编辑室应该高度重视。【8题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段的Brooke Binkowski, an editor,

49、 says that, during her career, she has seen a shift towards less editorial oversight in newsrooms. “Clickbait is king, so newsrooms will uncritically print something unreal. Not all newsrooms are like this, but a lot of them are.”（编辑布鲁克宾科夫斯基说，在她的职业生涯中，她看到了新闻编辑监督减少的转变。 “点击率是王道，所以新闻编辑室将不加批判地打印一些不真实的东西

50、。 并非所有的编辑部都是这样的，但其中有很多是这样的。”）可知，点击率是非常重要的东西，因此新闻编辑室有时会错误地报道某些新闻。结合选项，故选A。【9题详解】词义猜测题。根据下文Thus，the rumor simply becomes true for readers（因此，谣言对读者来说就变得真实了）因此推断画线句句意：一旦某一个错误事物被反复地提到，那么它将具有一个很大的影响，它会掩盖事实，谣言就会成为读者眼中的事实。结合选项，故选D。【10题详解】推理判断题。根据第六段的Margaret Sullivan说到的：Reporters and editors have to be more

51、 careful than ever beforeIts extremely important to question and to use every verification（验证） method available before publication（记者和编辑必须比以往任何时候都更加小心。在出版前质疑和使用每种验证方法是非常重要的）可推断，Margaret Sullivan认为只要是需要发布的消息，在出版之前都应该反复的并且找到一定的方法验证其真实性，避免出现错误报道。由此推知，对于错误的消息，她是持否定观点的，故选A。【11题详解】主旨大意题。通读全文，特别是根据第一段内容可知，

52、文章从2014年6月赫芬顿邮报和邮报在线报道的三岁的维多利亚威尔彻因脸上的疤痕吓到顾客而被被赶出肯德基这一假新闻为例介绍了网络上或者报纸上有时会出现某些虚假消息，接下来文章对其发生原因进行了分析，同时指出对此网站或者报纸编辑室应该高度重视。结合选项，故选B。DWho cares if people think wrongly that the internet has had more important influences than the washing machine? Why does it matter that people are more impressed by the m

53、ost recent changes?It would not matter if these misjudgments were just a matter of peoples opinions. However, they have real impacts, as they result in misguided use of scarce resources.The fascination with the ICT(Information and Communication Technology) revolution, represented by the internet, ha

54、s made some rich countries wrongly conclude that making things is so “yesterday” that they should try to live on ideas. This belief in “post-industrial society” has led those countries to neglect their manufacturing sector(制造业), with negative consequences for their economies.Even more worryingly, th

55、e fascination with the internet by people in rich countries has moved the international community to worry about the “digital divide” between the rich countries and the poor countries. This has led companies and individuals to donate money to developing countries to buy computer equipment and intern

56、et facilities. The question, however, is whether this is what the developing countries need the most. Perhaps giving money for those less fashionable things such as digging wells, extending electricity networks and making more affordable washing machines would have improved peoples lives more than g

57、iving every child a laptop computer or setting up internet centres in rural villages, I am not saying that those things are necessarily more important, but many donators have rushed into fancy programmes without carefully assessing the relative long-term costs and benefits of alternative uses of the

58、ir money.In yet another example, a fascination with the new has led people to believe that the recent changes in the technologies of communications and transportation are so revolutionary that now we live in a “borderless world”. As a result, in the last twenty years or so, many people have come to

59、believe that whatever change is happening today is the result of great technological progress, going against which will be like trying to turn the clock back. Believing in such a world, many governments have put an end to some of the very necessary regulations on cross-border flows of capital, labou

60、r and goods, with poor results.Understanding technological trends is very important for correctly designing economic policies, both at the national and the international levels, and for making the right career choices at the individual level. However, our fascination with the latest, and our under v
