But now，being a member of their group has become a source of pride, with Collins online dictionary naming the term “geek” as UK’s “Word of the Year” on December 16. “Geek” tops the list for 2013 because of its “positive makeover”， a spokeswoman for Collins Dictionary told The Scotsman newspaper. The word originally appeared in the 19th century as a variant (变形) of “geck”， meaning “a simpleton (傻瓜)”． “In the 1980s, the word still had a negative meaning, referring to someone who was boring and socially awkward. However, from the late 20th century, due to the increasing importanc e of technology in society, the word has come to mean a clever, switchedon and cool person，” noted The Scotsman. In September, the dictionary changed the main definition of “geek” from “someone preoccupied with computing” to “a person who is very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about a specific subject”． “’Geek’is a great example of a word that has evolved from having a negative meaning to having a positive one.” Ian Brookes, consultant editor to Collins Dictionary told The Guardian. “This change in meaning represents a positive change in views of specialist expertise (专长；专业知识), and is a result of the influence of technology on people’s lives.” The Telegraph’s John Bingham believes that the transformation of the word was helped along by the success of the US movie The Social Network, about the creation of the US website Facebook. “Commentators said the film showed that it had become fashionable to be a geek”， Bingham wrote. 1．The underlined word “makeover” in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to ________. A．evolution B．result C．influence D．response 2．When did the word “geek” begin to have a positive meaning? A．In the early 20th century. B．From the 1990s. C．In the 1980s. D．At the end of 2013. 3．According to the article, “geek” now mainly refers to ________. A．someone who is addicted to computing and new technology 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 4 B．someone who is boring and unfashionable C．someone who is smart but awkward in social situations D．someone who is wellinformed and devoted to a certain field 4．What helped to transform the meaning of “geek” from negative to positive according to the article? a．The effect of technology. b．The news media’s promotion. c．The influence of Collins Dictionary. d．The popularity of The Social Network. A．a，b B．b，c C．a，d D．c，d B (2015·南京三校联考)Hong Kong，selfclaimed“world city of Asia”， is always proud of its residents’ high English proficiency.But if you expect people in this formerBritish colony to talk in a crisp British accent, then you may be disappointed. Walk into a restaurant or a cafe in the city’s trendy shopping area and eavesdrop on a nearby table of young professionals or teenage students, you will most likely wonder if you are in California instead of the concrete jungle that is Hong Kong. Due to their frequent exposure to US pop culture — not to mention that many of them were educated in the US or local international schools — many young Hong Kong residents, especially women, speak English with a rising tone at the end of a statement “Hi, my name is Michelle？” Linguistically, this is known as “uptalk” or “highrising intonation”． This accent is also what Americans refer to as “Valleyspeak”. But as an English learner, you may want to think twice before committing yourself to picking up this accent. In the US，“Valleyspeak” is a mocking term originated in the early 1980s. It referred to the tone and speech pattern of “Valley Girls” ， rich middleclass and uppermiddleclass young women living in the San Femando Valley in Southern California. Women who speak in this accent are often seen as spoiled, superficial and more interested in material pursuits than their intellectual development. But this stereotype is unfounded. As a recent New York Times story shows, scholars have found that the rising tone is not exclusive (专有的) to young women. According to the researchers, rather than indicating insecurity, uptalk is often used to implicitly ask the listener to confirm that the speaker is being understood. Uptalk can also serve a strategic purpose in which the speaker, anticipating an interruption by the 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 5 listener, tries to prevent it by using a rising tone at the end of a statement. We needn’t go into all the technical details. How people speak is influenced by many factors.We can’t measure someone’s intellec tual depth by their accent. But social stereotypes, though unjustified, are powerful. Many English native speakers find uptalk annoying. Lake Bell, a US actress and director, was a strong voice in 2013 speaking against what she referred to as “sexy baby vocal virus”. Bell wrote, directed and starred in In a World last year, a movie about voiceover artists. She told NPR in an interview last July: “I can’t have people around me that speak that way, and mainly because I am a woman, I grew up thinking a female voice should sound sophisticated and elegant, not a 12yearold little girl that is submissive (顺从的) to the male species.” As fond of US TV dramas as you may be, uptalk is probably the least desirable accent you want to pick up as an English learner. 5．You may be disappointed when people in Hong Kong don’t talk in a crisp English accent in that ________. A．Hong Kong is selfclaimed “world city of Asia” B．people’s frequent exposure to US pop culture C．Hong Kong is not British colony any longer D．people in Hong Kong are fond of US TV dramas 6．What does the underlined word “eavesdrop” mean in Paragraph Two? A．To listen secretly to a private conversation. B．To greet people and ask for information. C．To understand and remember information. D．To join and enjoy a private conversation. 7．Which of the following is TRUE? A．How people speak is influenced by their intellectual depth. B．Lake Bell believes that uptalk sounds like a female voice. C．Uptalk can be used for a strategic purpose according to the researchers. D．Uptalk is only used by young women in Hong Kong and the US. 8．What’s the writer’s attitude towards English learners who want to pick up uptalk? A．Supportive. B．Negative. C．Neutral. D．Objective. 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 6 答 案 Ⅰ.1.选 C 句意：他是我以前的一个学生，无论什么时候只要他方便，他就会来看我。在时间 状语从句中用现在时表示将来，排除 B、D 两项；另外 convenient 作表语时不用“人”作主语。 2．选 C 句意：一支有 30 位来自解放军 302 军事医院的人组成的解放军医疗队已经被派往非 洲去抗击埃博拉疾病。所填词作 medical team 的后置定语。consist of“由……组成”，该短语无 被动语态。 3．选 A 句意：正如我们所看到的，网上购物对快递行业的发展做出了很大的贡献。 contribution“贡献”；progress“进步”；invention“发明”；protection“保护”。 4．选 A 句意：电视里反复播出他落选的消息不真实。根据句意可知“被打败或落选”这一事 情已经发生并完成，所以才在广播里播放，故用现在完成时的被动语态。 5．选 B 句意：如果你发现自己处于这样一种情形——那儿有一只具有进攻性的狗且没人控制 它，你应该尽量慢慢地离开，避免被攻击。第一空后的 situation 是抽象名词，但此处指后面提到 的这种情形，是抽象名词的具体化，故用不定冠词 a; 第二空考查固定短语 take control of“控 制”。 6．选 D 句意：最后，这个年轻的探险者，一路逢凶化吉，最后来到一个被当地人称为死亡谷 的地方。句中 arrived at 后是一个宾语从句，所填词在从句中作主语，故用 what。 7．选 B 句意：他最喜欢的食物是油炸小吃和碳酸饮料，怪不得他在百米赛后累得气喘吁吁的。 句中 it 代替 that 从句作形式主语。 8．选 B 句意： 高三年级的学生都在努力学习以取得在大学继续学习的资格。stick to“坚 持”；lead to“导致，引起；通往”；turn to“求助，转向，查阅”；refer to“指的是；谈论； 查阅”。 9．选 A 句意：“旅途怎样？”“好累！座位满满的。我一直站着。”根据语境可知，所有的 座位被占了，应用被动语态，故排除 C、D 两项；此处表示发生在过去的事实，故选 A。 10．选 D 句意：庆祝会很快就要开始了，因此请就座。此处表示因果关系，应选择 D。 therefore“因此”；however“然而”；besides“除此之外，而且”；instead“反而”。 11．选 B 句意：他虽然在外工作，心里却一直挂念家中的老母亲。be concerned about“对…… 关心/挂念”，符合句意。be satisfied with“对……满意”；be pleased with“对……感到满意”； be excited about“对……感到兴奋”。 12．选 C 句意：今天在老师面前说错话真的很让我尴尬。第一空考查定语从句，先行词是前 面的一句话，且是非限制性的，故用 which; 第二空考查“make sb.＋形容词”用法，其中形容词 作宾语补足语。embarrassed“尴尬的”；embarrassing“令人尴尬的”。 13．选 B 句意：他突然直接站起来向出席会议的人陈述自己的观点。因 he 与 represent“陈 述”是主动关系，故用现在分词作伴随状语。 14．选 A 此处描述将来不太可能发生的事，故条件状语从句和主句要用虚拟语气。结合选项 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 7 可知，此题省略了连词 if, 应把 should 提到句首，故选 A。 15．选 A 句意：每个人都想要生活在一个美丽的、舒适的和宜居的地方，但并不是所有人都 知道这样的地方在哪里。根据 but 可知，此处表转折，故应选与 not 构成部分否定的代词，排除 B、 C 两项；由前面的 everyone 可知应选 A。 Ⅱ. 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。戴着瓶底眼镜的书呆子们曾经被嘲笑为无用的“geek”， 然而时代在变化，咸鱼也有翻身的一天！科林斯字典给了这个词一个全新的、积极的含 义。 1．选 A 词义猜测题。根据文章第一段的第二句和第三段前后对比可知，此处 makeover 意为 “华丽转身”，与倒数第二段的第一句相呼应。 2．选 B 细节理解题。根据第四段的第一句和第二句对比可知，“geek”这个词实现意义上的 华丽转身是在 20 世纪 90 年代。 3．选 D 细节理解题。根据倒数第三段中的“a person who is very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about a specific subject”可知，“geek”现在主要指那些博学的学者型人物。 4．选 C 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段的第一句可知，“geek”词义的华丽转身来源于电影 The Social Network 的成功和技术的进步。根据倒 数第二段最后一句中的“is a result of the influence of technology on people’s lives”可知，这是科技进步对人们生活影响的结果。 语篇解读：由于美国文化的冲击，很多年轻的香港女性说起了“uptalk”这种口音的英 语。这篇文章作者主要分析这种现象并建议大家不要讲这种口音的英语。 5．选 B 细节理解题。根据第三段第一句中的“Due to their frequent exposure to US pop culture...”可知，B 项正确。 6．选 A 词义猜测题。根据下文“on a nearby table”以及他们的口音让人觉得置身于加州 可推知，坐在附近的桌子上“偷听”他们讲话。故答案选 A。 7．选 C 细节理解题。根据第八段第二句可知，A 项错误；根据倒数第二段内容可知，B 项错 误；据第七段第二句中的“Uptalk can also serve a strategic purpose”可知，C 项正确；D 项 文中没有提及。故答案选 C。 8．选 B 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“uptalk is probably the least desirable accent you want to pick up as an English learner”可知，作者持否定态度。故 B 项正确。
