Question

【題目】請(qǐng)閱讀下面非連續(xù)性文本，按要求完成所給的任務(wù)，并將答案寫在答題卡相應(yīng)的位置上。

Many of us have feelings of loneliness as we grow up. Some teenagers can’t stand eating alone in the dining hall, and girls even go to the restroom hand in hand. They fear being called a “l(fā)oner”. In these cases, we might use the word “l(fā)oner” in a disapproving (不贊成的) way.

However, it can actually have a good meaning as well. It all depends on our attitude toward being alone.

“It’s hard to feel lonely when you’re trying to master a new skill, practice a hobby or try out a new recipe,” wrote US lifestyle writer Adrienne Breaux. She used to be a terrible cook, but whenever loneliness hit her, she would buy a lot of ingredients and figure out how to make them into delicious dishes. After a few months, she became good at cooking. If you can make use of your solo (單獨(dú)的) time, you’ll find that it won't trouble you.

“Honjok” Hit Korea

“Honjok” has become a growing lifestyle in South Korea. The word comes from “hon” (alone) and “jok” (tribe 一族). These people eat alone, travel alone, and enjoy being by themselves. “I hope it grows into a self-supporting culture of happiness,” said Jang Jae Young, a South Korean who runs a website about this solo lifestyle called honjok.me.

Loner Economy (經(jīng)濟(jì)) in Japan

There are many solo karaoke bars and solo cafes in Japan. Ramen (拉面） restaurants for solo diners are especially popular. Boards separate each seat. Diners fill out a form to place an order, and then press a button to call the waiter. They don't see the faces of other customers or waiters.

People are becoming more peaceful about being alone. This doesn’t mean we should totally shut ourselves from the outside world, of course. But it doesn’t hurt to have some “me time” once in a while.

The Loneliness

My heart has grown rich with the passing of years,

I have less need now than when I was young

To share myself with every comer

Or shape my thoughts into words

It is the same to me whether they come or go

As long as I have myself

Let them think I care, though I go alone;

If it lifts their pride, what is it to me

Who am self-complete as a flower or a stone.

本文介紹了很多人不喜歡孤獨(dú)。但是人們可以利用獨(dú)處的時(shí)間去掌握一項(xiàng)新技能、培養(yǎng)一種愛(ài)好或嘗試一種新食譜，這樣孤獨(dú)就不會(huì)困擾你。

【4】as long as“只要”，I have myself“我還有自我”，the same to me“對(duì)我都一樣”，it是形式主語(yǔ)，whether they come or go“他們是否來(lái)去”，是真正主語(yǔ)從句，故填：只要我還有自我， 他們來(lái)去對(duì)我都一樣。

【5】根據(jù)“It’s hard to feel lonely when you’re trying to master a new skill, practice a hobby or try out a new recipe,”可知，“當(dāng)你試圖掌握一項(xiàng)新技能、培養(yǎng)一種愛(ài)好或嘗試一種新食譜時(shí)，你很難感到孤獨(dú)。”因此，我想要成為一名孤獨(dú)的人，因?yàn)槲铱梢岳�用�?dú)處的時(shí)間來(lái)掌握一項(xiàng)新技能，故填Yes, I do.
