28、it had a _1_ effect on our lives”和下文的“but，what will we do”可知，平時(shí)家里離不開(kāi)wi­fi，現(xiàn)在沒(méi)有了，當(dāng)然對(duì)我們平時(shí)的生活方式產(chǎn)生挑戰(zhàn)。explore“探索”；improve“提升”；guarantee“保證”。3c根據(jù)下文的“when given the news that there was no wi­fi in the house”可知，我們家里失去(lost) wi­fi一個(gè)多星期；receive“收到”；book“訂購(gòu)”；buy“購(gòu)買(mǎi)”。4b根據(jù)第二段第一句“i was raised in th

29、e pre­wi­fi era”可知，“我”是在沒(méi)有wi­fi的時(shí)代長(zhǎng)大的，因此對(duì)于沒(méi)有了wi­fi也是比較習(xí)慣的(accustomed)，be accustomed to表示“習(xí)慣于”。5a根據(jù)上下文可推知，“我”習(xí)慣無(wú)wi­fi的生活，但是孩子們不習(xí)慣。上下文是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，因此選however。6c根據(jù)空后的“but, what will we do”可知空處指的是他們的第一反應(yīng)(response)。7d根據(jù)上下文可知，沒(méi)有wi­fi只有電視，且電視頻道只有70多個(gè)，孩子們很絕望。excited“興奮的”；grateful“感激的”

30、；embarrassed“尷尬的”；desperate“絕望的”。8b根據(jù)本句的定語(yǔ)從句“most of which is now given online”可知，家庭作業(yè)應(yīng)是孩子們的主要(major)挑戰(zhàn)。avoidable“可避免的”；enjoyable“令人愉快的”；simple“簡(jiǎn)單的”。9a空后的“the dog ate my homework”表示“狗吃了我的作業(yè)”，此處表示沒(méi)有網(wǎng)絡(luò)是這種借口的一個(gè)新提法，故選a。10c根據(jù)空后的賓語(yǔ)從句“that one of her friends had her water supply temporarily_11_ due to a le

31、ak”可知，這些內(nèi)容應(yīng)該是女兒講出來(lái)(observed)的。 repeat“重復(fù)”；promise“承諾”；ignore“忽略”；observe“觀察，說(shuō)，評(píng)論”。11b根據(jù)該空后的“due to a leak”可推知，水管漏水了，供水會(huì)被暫時(shí)中斷(cut off)。12a根據(jù)上下文可知，女兒認(rèn)為我們沒(méi)有wi­fi更糟糕(worse)。13d根據(jù)上下文可知，為了能夠在家工作，丈夫和“我”需要互聯(lián)網(wǎng)。enable sb.to do sth.表示“使某人能做某事”。14c根據(jù)下文的“although expensive”可知，“我”去商店買(mǎi)(purchase)wi­fi。 lo

32、ok into“調(diào)查”；search for“尋找”；borrow“借”。15a根據(jù)語(yǔ)境可知，買(mǎi)了wi­fi，“我”建立自己的網(wǎng)絡(luò)就容易了。16d根據(jù)本句中的“l(fā)ike leaving a tap running(像讓水管的水不停地流著一樣)”可知，我們知道讓水管的水不停地流著意味著“浪費(fèi)”，故選d。17b根據(jù)上下文可知，當(dāng)“我”上網(wǎng)做事時(shí)，“我”是盡快地做，as quickly as possible表示“盡快地”。18a根據(jù)語(yǔ)境可知，技術(shù)已經(jīng)引起了我們?nèi)粘Ｉ畹母淖?，這些改變?cè)谖覀儧](méi)有注意(noticing)的情況下發(fā)生了。19d參見(jiàn)上題解析。reflect“反思”；hear“聽(tīng)

33、到”；appreciate“欣賞”。20c根據(jù)該空后的“without wi­fi was seeing the children make forts(堡壘)out of the sofa cushions，which they haven't done in years”可知，沒(méi)有了wi­fi，孩子們可以在一起玩，這是愉快的(bright)事情。*短文改錯(cuò)i'm writing this e­mail to ask you for help. as an english song lover, i have a strong desire to
