20、BconnectedCsurvived Dsurfed【解题导语】作者用诙谐的语气质问WiFi，这呈现了现代人的一种通病，那就是对无线网络的依赖。1C根据语境可知，虽然(Though)作者知道WiFi帮助了自己，但是正是WiFi的特殊作用让作者在做事情的时候会分心。2D参见上题解析。3A根据语境可知，作者很多次都对自己承诺说要抑制(keep in)自己对WiFi的情感。bring back“使回忆起，使想起”；approve of“同意，赞成”；give up“放弃”。4A根据语境可知，此处形象生动地表现了作者不能抗拒WiFi对自己的吸引。draw“吸引”符合语境。force“强迫，迫使”；o

21、bserve“观察”。5BWiFi进入了作者的家和灵魂中。下文中的“holds our mind”是关键提示。6AWiFi(本来)只是我们娱乐(entertainment)和获取信息的窗口。argument“争论”；expansion“扩张”；struggle“斗争，奋斗”。7B根据上文的“Youre just a window for our. information”以及“But”所表示的转折关系可知，此处表示人们并不满足于(satisfied)WiFi仅仅是个“窗口(window)”。 strict“严格的”；generous“慷慨的”。8D此处表示人们将WiFi的作用扩大化，不仅仅满足

22、于其作为窗口的作用，而是将所有的“门(doors)”打开迎接WiFi。某种程度上而言，door是window的“升级版”。9A结合下文中的“an illness”可知，作者疑惑的是自己和其他人对WiFi如此依赖的现象是否是一种病(disease)。inspiration“灵感”；routine“惯例”；phenomenon“现象”。10C如果对WiFi的情感是一种依赖的话，WiFi能保证与作者一生都亲密无间吗？commit意为“保证(做某事、遵守协议或遵从安排等)，承诺”，符合语境。recommend“推荐”；instruct“教导”；adapt“适应”。11BWiFi不能给自己放几天假以便它

23、和作者都能放松(relax)一下吗？persist“坚持”；progress“发展、(使)进步”；balance“平衡”。12D根据本句中的“not a slow one”可知，WiFi并不是慢性毒药，而是快速起效的毒药，故用fast与slow形成对比。raw“不熟练的”；ambiguous“含糊不清的”。13AWiFi是一种能控制人们的思想并使人们随着它的音调起舞的毒药。dance to表示“随着跳舞”。14A根据下文中的“anyone can buy”可知，如今WiFi的价格是如此低廉以至于任何人都能买到，并使其成为人们的伴侣。affordable“支付得起的，不算太贵的”；valuabl

24、e“有价值的”；conventional“传统的”；attractive“有吸引力的”。15C参见上题解析。下文中的“Because you accompany us everywhere and never let us be alone”亦是提示。addition“加，添加”；companion“伴侣，伙伴”；instrument“工具”。16B毫无生命的WiFi是决不会在意其用户的健康的，但是用户们会一直担心WiFi的“健康”，此处用always与上文的“never”形成对比，强调人们对WiFi的在意程度。17D根据下文中的“person made of flesh and blood(

25、血肉之躯)”可知，作者想知道如果WiFi成为拥有血肉之躯的真实的人，人们是否会一样喜欢它。selfish“自私的”；dishonest“不诚实的”；responsible“负责任的”。18A根据上文作者介绍的人们对WiFi的依赖及下文中的“we even cant get rid of you”可知，人们离开了WiFi简直无法生活下去，而本句中的“with your numerous talents”正是WiFi控制人们的方式。control“控制”；scold“责备”；comfort“安慰”；challenge“挑战”。19B根据语境可知，WiFi控制了人们，也就是说人们成了被其掌控的奴隶(

26、slaves)。colleague“同事”；employer“雇主”。20C根据语境尤其是本句中的“in the previous generations”可知，作者非常疑惑的是在早期没有WiFi的时候人们是如何存活(survived)下来的。suffer“受苦”；connect“联系”；surf“冲浪”。四、单句改错1Cross the road very carefully.
