【2024高考训练】阅读下列短文, 从给的四个选项 (A、B、C和D) 中, 选出最佳选项。
In the mid1950s，I was a somewhat bored earlyado lescent male student who believed that doing_any_more_than_necessary_
was_wasted_effort.One day，this approach threw me into embarrassment.
In Mrs.Totten's eighthgrade math class at Central Avenue School in Anderson，Indiana，we were learning to add and subtract decimals (小数)．
Our teacher typically assigned daily homework，which would be recited in class the following day.On most days，our grades were based on our oral answers to homework questions.
Mrs.Totten usually walked up and down the rows of desks requesting answers from student after student in the order the questions had appeared on our homework sheets.She would start either at the front or the back of the classroom and work toward the other end.
Since I was seated near the middle of about 35 students，it was easy to figure out which questions I might have to answer.This particular time，I had completed my usual two or three problems according to my calculations.
What I failed to expect was that several students were absent，which threw off my estimate.As Mrs.Totten made her way from the beginning of the class，I desperately tried to determine which math problem I would get.I tried to work it out before she got to me，but I had brain freeze and couldn't function.
When Mrs.Totten reached my desk，she asked what answer I'd got for problem No.14.“I...I didn't get anything，”I answered，and my face felt warm.
“Correct，”she said.
It turned out that the correct answer was zero.
What did I learn that day？First，always do all your homework.Second，in real life it isn't always what you say but how you say it that matters.Third，I would never make it as a mathematician.
If I could choose one school day that taught me the most，it would be that one.

Global Positioning Systems (全球定位系统) are now a part of everyday driving in many countries.These satellitebased systems provide turnbyturn directions to help people get to where they want to go.However，they can also cause a lot of problems，send you to the wrong place or leave you completely lost.Many times，the driver is to blame.Sometimes a GPS error is responsible.Most often，says Barry Brown，it is a combination of the two.
Barry Brown is with the Mobile Life Centre in Stockholm，Sweden.He told us about an incident involving a friend who had flown to an airport in the eastern United States.There he borrowed a GPSequipped car to use during his stay.Mr Brown says，“They just plugged in an address and then set off to their destination.And，then it wasn’t until they were driving for thirty minutes that they realized they actually put in a destination back on the West Coast where they lived.They actually put their home address in.So again，the GPS is kind of ‘garbage in garbage out’．”
Mr Brown says this is a common human error，but what makes the problem worse has to do with some of the shortcomings，or failures，of GPS equipment.He says，“One problem with a lot of the GPS units is they have a very small screen and they just tell you the next turn.Because they just give you the next turn，sometimes that means that it is not really giving you the overview that you would need to know that it’s going to the wrong place.”
Mr Brown says，“One of the things that struck us，perhaps the most important thing was that you have to know what you’re doing when you use a GPS.There are these new skills that people have developed.There are these new competencies (资格) that you need to have to be able to use a GPS because they sometimes go wrong.This goes against a common belief that GPS systems are for passive drivers who lack navigational skills.”
Barry Brown says to make GPS systems better we need a better understanding of how drivers，passengers and GPS systems work together.
1．According to Barry Brow，in most cases，________are blame for the problems.
A．human errors
B．GPS errors
C．errors caused by both drivers and GPS
D．errors caused by putting in a wrong address
2．The example of Barry Brown’s friend is used to show that________.
A．GPS is nothing but garbage
B．GPS is still not accurate enough
C．it is difficult for drivers to use GPS equipment
D．sometimes drivers are responsible for the problem
3．It can be inferred from the second paragraph that________.
A．it’s impossible to drive from the east to the west in the US
B．Barry Brown’s friend went to Stockholm，Sweden by plane
C．given wrong instructions，the GPS will produce wrong results
D．GPS systems are for passive drivers who lack navigational skills
4．Which of the followings is one of the shortcomings of GPS equipment?
A．It just tells the driver to turn once at a time.
B．It gives the driver the overview.
C．Its screen is too small to be seen clearly.
D．It is only suitable for passive drivers.
5．What’s the main idea of the text?
A．GPS systems are helpful for drivers.
B．Driving with GPS can be difficult to navigate (导航)．
C．Drivers should understand how GPS systems work.
D．Drivers should learn to use GPS systems correctly.语篇解读 本文是一篇议论文。文章主要介绍了开车用GPS导航系统也很难导航。

答案： BIt’s hot out.The usual midday thunderstorm has just passed，and a few kids hanging out on benches around the pool at Miami’s Ransom Everglades School finally jump in and cool off.
Eightyearold Gary Kendrick and the others are all here for swim lessons.“They told us to hold on to the wall and kick our feet and，like，move our arms，”Kendrick says.“When I had to swim to one of the counselors，I was really swimming.I do not even know I was moving.”
Kendrick doesn’t have the technique of an Olympic swimmer，but he can make it to the side of a pool if he’s pushed，falls in，or just wants to cool off.Kendrick is one of a handful of kids from South Miami to get free swim lessons at Ransom Everglades.
“You know，we have populations of people who lack basic swim skills，”says Julie Gilchrist.“In swimming pools...presumably，you know where the bottom is，you know where the sides are，” she says.“And so one would think that with basic swim skills it should be difficult for an older child or teen to drown in a swimming pool.And yet that’s what we were seeing among AfricanAmericans.”
Swimming pool drowning rates among schoolaged black children are more than five times higher than they are among white kids the same age.Why？There are many reasons，but one big one.“Kids who are living in public housing，growing up where finance is a real problem，singlemother households，opportunities for just having access to a pool are limited.”
After four decades of work to get a pool built，Codrington is finally getting one，in the heart of South Miami.Codrington calls it a “mixed bag”．He wishes the new pool were bigger—to accommodate things like swim meets and lifeguard lessons.But he’s satisfied knowing that it’ll be a place where neighborhood kids can learn to swim.
“This is going to save a lot of lives just as it is.It’s going to save a lot of children from drowning，” he says.
1．At Ransom Everglades，Kendrick
.
A．was being trained to swim for Olympics
B．was learning the skills of swimming for free

(2024·济南市4月模拟，D)
More over smart phone, the intelligent watch is about to take your spot as the latest hitech current, allowing wearers to glance at messages and even take calls without touching their phones. The i'm Watch, available since 2011, is the flagship product of an Italian company—i'm. This smart watch is an assist to the smart phone, with which it can communicate by Bluetooth wireless technology. It means you can leave your phone in your pocket as you answer or reject a call, review emails or read updates from friends on Twitter or Facebook.
The i'm Watch also has its own applications, such as i'm Sport, which links with a heart rate detector (检测器) to allow a runner to check his pulse. Such functions already exist in specialized sports watches but not on watches that are linked to smart phones.
With a square shape, a 3.8centimeter touch screen and various colors, the i'm Watch sells for a minimum of 300 Euros ($390) for the basic model and prices climb to 16 000 Euros for a luxury model in silver or decorated with diamonds.
So far, the watch has already found 30 000 buyers, 80 percent of whom are men aged 25 to 50. “Seventy percent are iPhone users, 25 percent Samsung and the rest are other telephones using Google's Android operating system，” said Massimiliano Bertolini, a manager of the company, which aims to sell more than 200 000 watches this year. The company's target market is the person who is always glued to his smart phone, even in meetings or at the movies, or people who wish to keep an eye on their heartbeat during exercise. They will especially target women with advertisements emphasizing its design rather than its technology.
