Question

【题目】请阅读下面材料，根据材料内容，在下面的表格中填入与文章意思符合的内容，每空一词。

Speed reading is a necessary skill in the Internet age. We skim over articles, e-mails and WeChat to try to grasp key words and the main meaning of a certain text. With so much information from our electronic devices（设备）, it would be impossible if we read word by word, line by line.

But now people are called on to put down the devices and enjoy reading slowly. Slow readers, say a good reading habit makes their minds more active. What's more, slow reading gives them more peace. A study also shows that reading a novel helps people understand others better.

With the rapid development of technology, like screens, the way of reading is different from that traditional one. We use a wild skimming and skipping way as we look for important words. "The Internet may have made us stupider," says Patrick Kingsley from The Guardian. "Because of the Internet," he says. "We have become very good at collecting plenty of information, but we are also gradually forgetting deep reading and thinking."

Slow reading means a return to a continual, linear pattern（线性模式）, in a quiet environment. "Aim for 30 minutes a day," advises Kelly from The Atlantic. "You can spare that time pretty easily if only during your free moments—whenever you find yourself turning on your laptop to check your favorite site, or looking through WeChat for something to pass the time –then you can enjoy a meaningful book." Kelly says.

【5】enjoying

【解析】

文章主要讲的是在目前快速阅读的大背景下，阅读爱好者发起了一项“回归慢速阅读”的运动，并列举了慢速阅读的一些好处。

【1】句意：良好的阅读习惯使他们的思维更加活跃。

根据“Slow readers, say a good reading habit makes their minds more active.”慢读者，说一个好的阅读习惯使他们的头脑更活跃。此处使用来修饰work，因此用副词。故填actively。

【2】句意：慢慢地阅读会给他们更多的平静的感觉。

根据“What's more, slow reading gives them more peace.”更重要的是，慢读给他们更多的平静。此处应该用形容词修饰名词feelings。故填peaceful。

【3】句意：阅读小说有助于人们更好地理解他人。

根据“A study also shows that reading a novel helps people understand others better.”一项研究还表明，阅读小说有助于人们更好地理解他人。空后的谓语help是动词原形，因此主语用复数形式。故填novels。

【4】句意：因为互联网，我们善于收集信息，而不是阅读和思考。

根据“We have become very good at collecting plenty of information, but we are also gradually forgetting deep reading and thinking.”我们已经非常善于收集大量的信息，但我们也逐渐忘记了深入阅读和思考。此处应该用副词修饰thinking。故填deeply。

【5】句意：每天花30分钟享受一本有意义的书。

根据“…or looking through WeChat for something to pass the time –then you can enjoy a meaningful book.”或者通过微信寻找消磨时间的方法，你就可以享受一本有意义的书。此处考查spend的用法。spend time／money (in) doing sth.花费时间（金钱）做某事。故填enjoying。
