Question

【題目】根據(jù)短文理解，選擇正確答案。
Don't you just hate it when you have to take an important phone call and you're surrounded by potential eavesdroppers(潛在偷聽者)? You either have to whisper or go outside to keep the conversation private, which is not good. Now Hushme aims to fix this problem by muffling your voice and making you look like Bane in the film Batman.
Hushme is a strange high-tech mask(口罩)that blocks the sound of the wearer's voice so that people nearby can't hear what is being said. It connects to your phone via Blucetooth and comes with a pair of earphones. When you get a private call, all you have to do is put the mask on and it will do the rest. The pair of thick pads over your mouth does a good job of muffling your voice, but to ensure nothing gets through. Hushme also has speakers that play a variety of sounds when you speak.
The Hushme mask, which comes in a variety of colors, can be worn around the neck, like a regular pair of earphones, and attaches in front of your mouth thanks to a couple of very powerful magnets(磁鐵). It's not yet clear how comfortable speaking with this Bane-like mask over your mouth really is, or how effective its speech muffling ability is, so we know so far is that it makes you look strange. The sound choices for covering your voice currently include wind, ocean, rain, birds, monkey, but new ones could be added in the future.

【答案】
（1）A
（2）A
（3）B
（4）C
【解析】本文是一篇說明文。作者給我們講述了一種新興的能夠使我們在打電話時別人無法聽到我們的聲音的高科技口罩，作者從它的外觀，特點(diǎn)，以及未來將會在市場上出現(xiàn)等一系列情況進(jìn)行了描寫，向我們展示了科技的偉大。

（1）細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“Now Hushme aims to fix this problem by muffling your voice and making you look like Bane in the film Batman”可知，Hushme的目的就是要解決之個問題，它通過消除你的聲音是你看起來像電影蝙蝠俠里的Bane一樣。故選A。

（2）詞意猜測題。根據(jù)“Now Hushme aims to fix this problem by muffling your voice and making you look like Bane in the film Batman”可知，要想猜測出muffling的意思，需要聯(lián)系前文，前文提到人們在打電話的時候經(jīng)常會有潛在的“偷聽者”，下面就是如何解決這個問題，所以提到了Hushme致力于消除聲音。由題目選項(xiàng)可知：A阻礙、堵塞，B識別、認(rèn)出，C改變，D記得，從這句話中可看出只有A符合句意。故選A。

（3）細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“It's not yet clear how comfortable speaking with this Bane-like mask over your mouth really is, or how effective its speech muffling ability is, so we know so far is that it makes you look strange”我們可以看出對于Hushme我們不清楚它的舒適度以及消減聲音的能力如何，從整篇文章也沒有講到它的受歡迎程度，根據(jù)“Hushme is a strange high-tech mask(口罩)that blocks the sound of the wearer's voice”我們能夠清楚確定的是它的外觀就像平常的口罩那樣。故選B。

（4）細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“The sound choices for covering your voice currently include wind, ocean, rain, birds, monkey, but new ones could be added in the future”可以看出，在這些選擇中已經(jīng)覆蓋了風(fēng)、海洋、雨滴、鳥和猴子的聲音，在未來將會增加新的聲音。故選C。
