Ⅳ.阅读理解
Pet lovers were very angry.Last May，a news article appeared online.It said three states had passed laws limiting the number of pets each household could have to only two.The news spread quickly，as many people shared the article on Facebook and other social media sites.But pet owners had nothing to worry about—the article was made­up.
Many fake news articles are harmless，but others might have played a role in real­world events.When it comes to online news，even adults can have a hard time separating fact from fiction.Education experts say kids should start learning how to tell the difference early on.
Of course，there are plenty of reputable websites you can visit to read the news.Well­known news organizations，such as The New York Times and the Associated Press，have their own sites.But many other online “news” sources aren’t always trustworthy.And many students have trouble spotting when articles aren’t entirely true or are trying to persuade them to think in a certain way.
Real news organizations can make mistakes，especially when they have to report quickly on breaking news stories.But they usually print corrections.
Why would someone purposely publish an article that isn’t true？The most common reason is to make money.Websites are paid by the companies that post ads on them.Companies want to place their ads on sites that get a lot of visitors.So people create fake news articles with attention­grabbing headlines to try to get users to click on them.
Some of the biggest websites are trying to stop the flow of fake news.Last November，Facebook and Google banned fake news sites from advertising on their pages.Facebook is also working with fact­checking organizations to identify and flag fake articles.But experts say the best way to slow the spread of fake news is for people to be more skeptical(怀疑的) of what they read online.
语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文。网络上的虚假新闻肆虐，对于网上看到的信息，人们应采取怀疑态度。

21．The first paragraph serves as a(n) .
A．explanation B．introduction
C．comment D．background
答案　B
解析　推理判断题。作者通过一个关于养宠物的虚假新闻开头引出下文要说明的虚假新闻问题。
22．What does the underlined word “reputable” in Paragraph 3 mean？
A．Popular. B．Resourceful.
C．Official. D．Reliable.
答案　D
解析　词义猜测题。画线词所在的第三段和上文是转折关系，通过Of course可以体现。上文提到了虚假新闻，所以第三段应该是指人们可以获取新闻的可靠的、可信任的网站，而第三段第二句中提到的《纽约时报》和美联社都是可信任的网站，因此选reliable。
23．What’s the main idea of the text？
A．People create fake news stories to make money.
B．The growing trend of fake news raises concerns.
C．It is necessary for kids to be able to spot fake news.
D．Most people can easily spot a fake news article.
答案　B
解析　主旨大意题。文章第一段通过一个虚假新闻引出下文，中间文段提到了如何去辨别假新闻，以及真假新闻存在的原因，最后又说明Facebook和Google等大型网站已经开始屏蔽虚假新闻了，而且专家也告诫人们对于虚假新闻应该采取什么样的态度，综合全文来看，虚假新闻已经引起了人们的关注。
24．What is the best way to reduce the influence of fake news？
A．Printing corrections quickly.
B．Limiting the use of headlines.
C．Encouraging readers to be doubtful about what they read online.
D．Developing the system of fact­checking and flagging fake news.
答案　C
解析　细节理解题。文章最后一段提到，虽然一些大的互联网站或社交网站已开设筛选并标注虚假信息以警示读者，但专家认为，应对虚假信息的最佳手段是鼓励人们对网上看到的信息持怀疑态度。由此可知，选项C为最佳答案。
