题目解答
答案
根据第二段,作者明确表示:“Limiting the amount of time spent on apps can promote a positive experience with social media and allow us to feel in control rather than battling the feelings of stress and overstimulation in this digital era.” 这表明作者支持通过限制使用时间来获得对社交媒体的掌控感。选项分析如下:
A. biased(有偏见的):文中未体现偏袒。
B. indifferent(冷漠的):作者并非漠不关心,而是积极提倡。
C. critical(批评的):作者未批评该观点,反而支持。
D. supportive(支持的):作者明确支持限制使用时间以获得掌控感。
答案:D. supportive
解析
本题考查对作者态度的理解。解题思路是在原文中找到与题目中观点相关的表述,通过分析作者的用词和语气来判断其态度。
- 首先,在原文中定位到关键句子“Limiting the amount of time spent on apps can promote a positive experience with social media and allow us to feel in control rather than battling the feelings of stress and overstimulation in this digital era.”。
- 从这句话可以看出,作者认为限制在应用程序上花费的时间能够带来积极的社交媒体体验,让我们有掌控感,而不是在数字时代与压力和过度刺激的感觉作斗争。
- 接着分析各个选项:
- A选项“biased(有偏见的)”:文中并没有体现出作者对该观点有偏袒的态度,所以A选项不符合。
- B选项“indifferent(冷漠的)”:作者明确表达了限制时间的好处,说明并非漠不关心,所以B选项错误。
- C选项“critical(批评的)”:作者是在阐述限制时间的积极作用,并非批评该观点,所以C选项不正确。
- D选项“supportive(支持的)”:作者的表述清晰地表明了对限制使用时间以获得掌控感这一观点的支持,所以D选项正确。
