Question

9．Many of us enjoy doing it：you turn on the camera on your mobile phone and hold it at a high angle，making your eyes look bigger and your cheekbones more defined．You turn to your best side and click．There it is-your selfie．
Over the past year，"selfie"has become a well-known term across the globe．This August the Oxford dictionary added the word to their online dictionary and defined it as："A photograph that one has taken of oneself，typically with a smartphone or webcam and up-loaded to a social media website．"
Today it's not difficult to find social networking pages full of photos people have taken of themselves and their friends．And selfie culture has become especially relevant for young people．As many as 91 percent of teenagers have posted photos of themselves online，according to a recent survey by the US Pew Research Center．
So what are the reasons for the rise of selfie culture？
"The cult （狂熱） of the selfie celebrates regular people，"Pamela Rutledge，a professor at the Massachusetts School of Professional Psychology，told Vogue magazine．"There are many more photographs available now of real people than models．"
Posting selfies also allows you to control your image online．"I like having the power to choose how I look，even if I'm making a funny face，"Samantha Barks，19，a high school student in the US，told Vogue．
In addition to self-expression and documentation，selfies"allow of a close friendship for long-distance friends，because you can see each other's faces every day"，wrote Casey Miller at The Huffmgton Post．
But US psychologist Jill Weber is concerned that selfies might lead to social problems，"There's a danger that your self-esteem may start to be tied to the comments and‘likes'you get when you post a selfie，and they aren't based on who you are-they're based on what you look like，"Weber told Vogue．"When you get nothing or a negative response，your confidence canplummet．"

Answer 1

分析 近年來，自拍成了人們非常熟悉的詞匯．自拍是指人們自己用數(shù)碼相機(jī)或手機(jī)等對(duì)自己進(jìn)行拍照，人們可以對(duì)拍攝的效果進(jìn)行修飾．但是一些心理學(xué)家指出有的人自拍成癮，常常想自拍并且將照片上傳到社交網(wǎng)站，以彌補(bǔ)現(xiàn)實(shí)生活中自尊心的缺失．

解答 BACD
63．B 主旨大意題．在文章首段中作者描述了人們自拍的過程，很形象地告訴人們什么是"selfie"，由此判斷作者的目的是給人們解釋什么是"自拍"，選B．
64 A．細(xì)節(jié)理解題．文章在第四段提出問題"what are the reasons for the rise of selfie culture？"，然后在第五、六、七段分別解釋了自拍文化流行的原因，由此判斷選A．
65．C 細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)文章倒數(shù)第二段內(nèi)容"There's a danger that your self-esteem may start to be tied to the comments and‘likes'you get when you post a selfie，and they aren't based on who you are-they're based on what you look like，"可知Jill Weber對(duì)此現(xiàn)象非常擔(dān)心，選C．
66．D 詞義推斷題．根據(jù)本段心理學(xué)家Jill Weber所說的內(nèi)容可知她認(rèn)為人們的自信很可能會(huì)和別人對(duì)自拍的反應(yīng)聯(lián)系起來，如果人們對(duì)他們的自拍沒有反應(yīng)或者是不好的反應(yīng)，那么人們的自信就會(huì)降低，故答案選D．

點(diǎn)評(píng) 做閱讀時(shí)經(jīng)常犯錯(cuò)的主要原因是，僅憑讀過文章后殘留在腦海中的一絲印象來勾選答案，這樣便很容易掉入出題人故意設(shè)布下的題目陷阱．所謂閱讀理解，對(duì)于題目的理解一定要忠實(shí)于原文，因此，每一道題都應(yīng)該與原文作全面的對(duì)比與核查，再得出答案．也就是說，閱讀理解的每一道題目，在原文都應(yīng)該有明確的出處，我們把這一出處叫做原文相關(guān)句，（1）排除與原文相關(guān)句主題不一致的選項(xiàng)（2）排除與原文相關(guān)句態(tài)度相反的選項(xiàng)  （3）排除用于過于極端或負(fù)面的選項(xiàng)（4）注意結(jié)合文章主旨和主題去排除．
