II阅读（共两节，满分50分） 第一节阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分） A My first wife and I only had one child. It might have been nice to have more. I would have liked a son, but we just had Carmen. I see her as my best friend. I think she always comes to me first if she has a problem. We have the same sense of humour and share many interests, except that she's crazy about animals, obsessed with them-she has always had dogs, cats, and horses in her life. We were closest when she was about four, which I think is a wonderful age for a child. That's when they need their parents most. But as soon as Carmen went to school, she seemed to grow up and grow apart from her family, and any father finds it difficult with a teenage daughter. She was very moody and had an odd group of friends. There was an endless stream of strange young men coming to our house. I remember once got annoyed with her in front of her friends and she didn't talk to me for days. I've always wanted the best for her. We sent her to a good school, but she wasn't happy there. She left because she wanted to become an actress, so with my connections I got her into a drama school, but she didn't like that either. She worked for a while doing small roles in films, but she

We have the same tastes in books and music. When she was younger, I used to take her to the opera-that's my

passion-but she can't have liked it very much because she hasn't come with me for years. I don't think she goes to the cinema or watches TV much. She might watch my films, but I don't know. It's not the kind of thing she talks to me about. I'm very pleased to have Carmen. She's a good daughter, but I don't think she likes my new wife very much because she doesn't visit us very often. I'm looking forward to being a grandfather one day. I hope she'll have a son. 26. Which is TRUE about the author according to the passage? A. He is disappointed with his first wife. B.

If you hear the sound of a mobile phone beeping in a bag or pocket, you could be forgiven for thinking that someone has received a text message. But nowadays there are so many different ways of messaging someone that it could spell the death of the traditional text as we know it. Text messaging, or texting, is the art of sending a short, electronic message between two mobile phones or tablets(平板电脑)． But in the last few years, messaging in this manner has been on the decline. The rise of smartphones and tablets has seen an increase in the use of instant messaging apps(应用程序)， which offer a cheap alternative to conventional texts. Using wireless internet connections or mobile data networks, people can send limitless numbers of instant messages to their friends for very little cost. Unlike traditional mobile texts, the user usually only has to pay to download the app once, after which each message they send is free.

Web developers soon got the message. Instant messaging apps have become popular all over the world. WhatsApp in America and Europe, WeChat in China and KakaoTalk in South Korea are but a few which have attracted hundreds of millions of people, who use the apps to chat to their friends in real time. These apps allow people to send picture messages for free-something which previously was quite costly.

Research firm Informa said that almost 19 billion messages were sent per day using chat apps in 2018, compared with 17.6 billion SMS(short message service) texts. And it expects the chat app market to grow t0 50 billion per day by 2018. So does this really mean the end for communication by text? Pamela Clark-Dickson from Informa doesn't think so. She says that there are a considerable number of people who use normal mobile phones, particularly in developing

countries, who prefer the SMS messaging tool: \"They don't have mobile data plans, so there is an awfully big base of mobile phone users who are still going to find that SMS is the best messaging experience for them for a while.\"

33. What does the underlined part \"got the message\"

probably mean?

C. became very popular D. used the apps to chat

34. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?

A. People won't use communication by text someday. B. People in developing countries are considerate. C. People don't use smart phones in developing countries.

D. People can use SMS without any mobile data plans. 35. What is best title for the passage?

A. SMS Texts B. Smart Phones

C. Trends in Messaging D. Instant Message Apps
