点评 "完形填空"题着重考查考生在阅读理解的基础上对英语语言知识的综合运用能力.考查的词汇知识包括:动词、形容词、副词、介词、动词词组、搭配、文章理解.完形填空的设题立足全篇短文而不是某个句子,但考生在判断选项时,往往忽略文义的整体性与连惯性,因此所选择的答案往往只符合局部意义,而与全文的意义相悖.有些选项需全面理解文章大意,依靠上下文或段落之间的逻辑关系,才能选出正确答案.

19.Sometime in the next century,the familiar early morning newspaper on the front porch will disappear.And instead of reading your newspaper,it will read to you.You'll get up and turn on the computer newspaper just like switching on the TV.An electronic voice will read stories about the latest events,guided by a program that selects the type of news you want.You'll even get to choose the kind of voice you want to hear.Want more information on the brief story?A simple touch makes the entire text appear.Save it in your own personal computer file if you like.These are among the predictions from communications experts working on the newspaper of the future.Pictured as part of broader homebased media and entertainment systems,computer newspapers would unite print and broadcast reporting,offering news and analysis (分析) with video of news events.

    Despite technological advances,it could take decades to replace newsprint with computer screens.It might take 30 to 40 years to complete the changeover because people need to buy computers and because newspapers have established financial interests in the paper industry.

A spokesperson for Eckerd,Only's foster agency,told the Tampa Bay Times they were(58)A with the new development."We are truly thrilled that Davion has been united with his forever family."
While Going is waiting for the newest (59)C to her family to become official in the eyes of the law,she says Only is already her child."I want him to know he is (60)A loved for who he is,the way he is,"she says."The changes he chooses to make in his life,and the choices,are his to make.As a family we will be there through it all,the good and the bad for our lifetime.He is home."
