B.PlayedC.Tobeplaying

D.Havingplayed參考答案：D【詳解】考查現(xiàn)在分詞完成式作原因狀語。句意：史蒂夫最近參加了三次年級籃球比賽，看上去很疲憊。此處句子主語Steve和play之間是主動關(guān)系，且play的動作發(fā)生在謂語動詞動作look之前，所以這里要用現(xiàn)在分詞的完成式做原因狀語，故選D。3.Afterthemeeting,theyparted,never_______eachotheragain.A.tosee

15.C這是一篇新聞報道。報道了如今的年輕人精通技術(shù)，但卻缺少基本生活技能。呼吁學(xué)校教育在培養(yǎng)和提高年輕人的生活技應(yīng)該扮演重要的角色?！?2題詳解】推理判斷題。由第一段Bornandraisedinadigitalage,today’syoungpeoplearegenerallytechsavvy(技術(shù)嫻熟的).Butwhenitcomestobasiclifeskills,they’relesscapablethantheoldergeneration可知，因為年輕人出生和成長在數(shù)字時代，他們一般都是技術(shù)精明的。但當(dāng)涉及到基本生活技能時，他們的能力不如老一輩。因此可以判斷出現(xiàn)在的年經(jīng)人與老一輩人相比，年輕人技術(shù)能力更強。故B選項正確?！?3題詳解】細節(jié)理解題。由第四段Technologymaybetoblameforthisgenerationalgap.可知，科技的進步造成了年輕人和老輩人之間的代溝。故D選項正確?！?4題詳解】推理判斷題。由最后三段尤其是最后段Theeducationalsystemwouldworkbetterifeveryacademicclasshadapracticalcoursethatappliedthetheorytodosomethingregularpeopledoinreallife.可知，如果每個教學(xué)班都開設(shè)一門實踐課程，把理論運用到現(xiàn)實生活中，那么教育體系就會運行得更好。故A選項正確?！?5題詳解】標(biāo)題歸納題。通讀全文可知，短文列舉年輕人缺少基本生活技能的實例，闡述了年輕人與老一輩人造成代溝的原因，提出了解決年輕人缺少基本生活技能的措施。這些都是圍繞著年強人缺少基本生活技能這個主題展開的。故C選項正確。23.
