，它需要將為獵鷹1號提供動力的九個梅林發動機連接在一起）可知，獵鷹9號得到了很大的升級。故選B。（3）詞句猜測題。根據劃線詞上文Wewereouttherebeatinghistory，butElonwasstill（我們打破了歷史，但埃隆仍在）以及下文Likeeverythingelsewe'veeverdone，itwaswayslowerthanElonwanted.（就像我們做過的其他事情一樣，它比埃隆想要的要慢得多）可知，but表示轉折關系，說明盡管獵鷹9號的首次測試發射取得了成功，但馬斯克仍然對他們很生氣，因為他們進展得太慢了。故劃線詞意思是"生氣"。A.madat生氣；B.contentwith滿足于；C.sadabout難過；D.movedby被感動。故選A。（4）推理判斷題。根據最后一段MrMusk'semployeesknewthathereallycaredaboutmakingbetterrockets，andthathewastakingbigfinancialrisks.Buttheycametovaluehisinsistenceontheoverallgoalofmakingarocketthatwaslargelyreusable.（馬斯克的員工知道，他真的很在乎制造更好的火箭，而且他正在承擔巨大的財務風險。但他們開始重視他對制造一枚基本上可重復使用的火箭的總體目標的堅持）可知，馬斯克在制造火箭的過程中，盡管面臨巨大的財務風險，但他仍然堅持制造更好的火箭，并致力于實現火箭的可重復使用。這說明馬斯克是一個堅定且執著的人。故選C。3．（10分）WanttoknowthecurrentpopulationofIndia？Theinternetisyourbestbet.Needaquickrefresheronthephasesofthemoon？Goahead，readastoryonline（ortwoorthree）.Butifyoureallyneedtolearnsomething，you'reprobablybetteroffwithprint.Oratleastthat'swhatalotofresearchnowsuggests.Researchersfindthatpeopletendtoreadfasteronscreens.That'sfineforcheckingtextsandsocialmediaposts.Butwhenscreensaresmall，theextrascrollingneededtoreadalongarticleorbookmaymakeithardertoretainwhatyou'rereading，datanowshow.Thatdoesn'tjustdependonthedevice，however.Italsodependsonwhatyouassumeaboutthetext.NaomiBaroncallsthisyourmindset.Shesaysonewaymindsetworksisinanticipatinghoweasyorhardweexpectthereadingtobe.Ifwethinkitwillbeeasy，wemightnotputinmucheffort.Muchofwhatwereadonscreenstendstobetextmessagesandsocialmediaposts，whichareusuallyeasytounderstand.So，"whenpeoplereadonscreens，theyreadfaster，"saysAlexanderattheUniversityofMaryland."Theireyesscanthepagesandthewordsfasterthanifthey'rereadingonapieceofpaper."Butwhenreadingfast，wemaynotabsorballtheideasaswell.However，allexpertsagreeononething：There'snogoingback.Digitalreadingisheretostay.Soitpaystomakethemostofit.It'sagoodideatodoalittlepreparation.Baroncomparesreadingtosportsortoplayingmusic."Watchapianistoranathlete.Beforetheyruntheraceorplaytheconcert，theygetthemselvesinthezone，"shesays."It'sthesamethingforreading.Beforeyoureadsomethingyoureallywanttofocuson，getinthezone.Thinkaboutwhatyou'llbereading，andwhatyouwanttogetfromit."（1）WhichisNOTthepossibleelementaffectingpeople'sreadingonscreens？DA.Smallscreens.B.Reader'smindset.C.Simpleposts.D.Readingskills.（2）Whatmayallexpertsagreeasfordigitalreading？AA.It'sunavoidable.B.It'sunhelpful.C.It'sunpredictable.D.It'sunacceptable.（3）WhydoesBaronmentionthepianistandtheathlete？BA.Todefineaterm.B.Tosupportanidea.C.Toexplainaconcept.D.Topresentthebackground.（4）Whichofthefollowingwouldbethebesttitleforthepassage？CA.TheRiseofDigitalReading.B.TheBenefitsofPrintReading.C.BalancingPrintandDigitalReading.D.PreparingfortheDigitalReadingEra.【解答】（1）細節理解題。根據文章第二段Butwhenscreensaresmall，theextrascrollingneededtoreadalongarticleorbookmaymakeithardertoretainwhatyou'rereading，datanowshow.（但當屏幕較小時，閱讀長文章或書籍所需的額外滾動可能會讓你更難記住所讀內容，數據顯示。）可知，小屏幕（選項A）是影響因素。根據第三段Italsodependsonwhatyouassumeaboutthetext.NaomiBaroncallsthisyourmindset.（這也取決于你對文本的假設。NaomiBaron稱之為你的心態。）可知，讀者的心態（選項B）是影響因素。根據第四段Muchofwhatwereadonscreenstendstobetextmessagesandsocialmediaposts，whichareusuallyeasytounderstand.（我們在屏幕上閱讀的內容大多是短信和社交媒體帖子，這些通常很容易理解。）可知，簡單的帖子（選項C）是影響因素。文章未提及閱讀技能（選項D）對屏幕閱讀的影響。故選D。（2）細節理解題。根據文章第五段However，allexpertsagreeononething：There'snogoingback.Digitalreadingisheretostay.（然而，所有專家都同意一件事：數字閱讀是不可逆轉的。數字閱讀將長期存在。）可知，數字閱讀是不可避免的。故選A。（3）推理判斷題。根據文章第五段Baroncomparesreadingtosportsortoplayingmusic."Watchapianistoranathlete.Beforetheyruntheraceorplaytheconcert，theygetthemselvesinthezone，"shesays."It'sthesamethingforreading.Beforeyoureadsomethingyoureallywanttofocuson，getinthezone.Thinkaboutwhatyou'l
