【分析】
拿到这类短文填空，首先通读全文，明确短文整体介绍不同朋友使用电脑的不同用途，全文基本为一般现在时。接下来逐个结合空格前后的提示和语法规则推导答案：
1. 空格前many of my friends表示“我的很多朋友”，对应多台电脑，要把可数名词computer变为复数形式；
2. 括号内的information是不可数名词，没有复数变形，直接用原形即可；
3. 主语He是第三人称单数，全文为一般现在时，谓语动词say要变为第三人称单数形式；
4. 此处是固定句型it makes it + 形容词 + sb + to do sth，需要搭配介词for引出动作的对象；
5. 空格后有明显的比较级标志词than，并列后面的easier，所以fast要变为比较级形式；
6. 固定搭配be good at里的at是介词，介词后面要接动词的动名词形式；
7. 主语Mike是第三人称单数，一般现在时的谓语动词spend要变为第三人称单数形式；
8. 后面的good fashion designer是可数名词单数，此处表示泛指“一名优秀的时尚设计师”，要填不定冠词；
9. 此处表达“和其他人聊天”，要把形容词other变为代词others，指代其他的人；
10. 前文介绍了很多朋友用电脑的不同用途，后文顺承引出Lucy的使用习惯，是并列顺承关系，填并列连词And。
【解析】
1. 考查名词复数：many friends对应多台电脑，computer是可数名词，复数形式为computers。
2. 考查不可数名词：information是不可数名词，没有复数变化，直接填information。
3. 考查一般现在时主谓一致：主语He是第三人称单数，谓语动词say变为says。
4. 考查固定句型：it makes it + adj. + for sb. to do sth. 表示“对某人来说做某事让某事变得更……”，填介词for。
5. 考查形容词比较级：后文出现than表示比较，and并列后面的easier，fast的比较级为faster。
6. 考查非谓语动词：固定搭配be good at doing sth. 表示“擅长做某事”，at是介词，后接动名词，write变为writing。
7. 考查一般现在时主谓一致：主语Mike是第三人称单数，谓语动词spend变为spends。
8. 考查冠词：此处泛指“一名优秀的时尚设计师”，good以辅音音素开头，填不定冠词a。
9. 考查代词：此处表示“和其他人聊天”，others指代其他的人，填others。
10. 考查并列连词：前后文是顺承并列关系，句首首字母大写，填And。
【答案】
1. computers 2. information 3. says 4. for 5. faster 6. writing 7. spends 8. a 9. others 10. And

五、传统文化阅读理解。(2025·江苏苏州立达中学校调研)
Every morning, millions of people in China do t'ai chi. It is popular with men and women. T'ai chi is a kind of exercise good for old people. It is good for the body and the mind. It is healthy and relaxing. T'ai chi is from China. It is hundreds of years old. T'ai chi is a "soft" martial art(武术). That means it is slow and calm.
There are also "hard" martial arts. Shaolin Kung Fu, for example, which has a history of over 1,500 years, is a "hard" martial art. It is fast and dangerous. You have to be very fit and strong to do "hard" martial arts.
In Beijing, Master Li Yu is teaching Shaolin Kung Fu to thirty young students, three of whom come from foreign countries. "Shaolin Kung Fu is difficult," said Li Yu. "You must practise every move many times."
Sports like football and basketball are also popular in China. But martial arts like t'ai chi and Shaolin Kung Fu are part of Chinese culture and history.
()1. How many types of martial arts are mentioned in this passage?
A. Only one.
B. Two.
C. Three.
D. Four.
()2. What is Master Li Yu teaching?
A. T'ai chi.
B. Shaolin Kung Fu.
C. Football.
D. Basketball.
()3. Which sentence is TRUE according to the passage?
A. It is easy to learn Shaolin Kung Fu.
B. People must be very healthy and strong to do t'ai chi.
C. Men like t'ai chi better than women.
D. T'ai chi has a shorter history than Shaolin Kung Fu.

1. B 【点拨】根据文章内容可知，文章提到了太极拳和少林功夫两种武术类型。故选 B。
2. B 【点拨】根据第三段中“In Beijing, Master Li Yu is teaching Shaolin Kung Fu to thirty young students”可知，他正在教的是少林功夫。故选 B。
3. D 【点拨】根据第一段中“T'ai chi is from China. It is hundreds of years old.”以及第二段中“Shaolin Kung Fu, for example, which has a history of over 1,500 years, is a 'hard' martial art.”可知，太极拳的历史比少林功夫短。故选 D。

【分析】
这是一篇介绍中国传统武术的细节类阅读理解题，解题时可以先明确每道题的题干关键词，带着问题回到原文对应位置定位信息，再逐一比对选项和原文内容即可得出答案：第一题需要梳理全文提到的武术种类，第二题直接定位人名相关的语句，第三题将每个选项带回原文逐一验证正误，排除错误表述就能选出正确答案。
【解析】
1. 通读全文可知，文中一共提到了两种武术：第一段介绍的太极拳（t'ai chi）、第二段介绍的少林功夫（Shaolin Kung Fu），足球和篮球属于普通体育运动，不属于武术，因此答案选B。
2. 根据原文第三段第一句“In Beijing, Master Li Yu is teaching Shaolin Kung Fu to thirty young students”，可以直接得知李宇师父教授的是少林功夫，因此答案选B。
3. 逐一验证选项：
选项A：原文第三段明确提到“Shaolin Kung Fu is difficult”，说明少林功夫很难学，该表述错误；
选项B：原文第二段说明练习“硬”武术需要非常健康强壮，并非太极拳，该表述错误；
选项C：原文第一段仅提到太极拳男女都喜欢，并没有说明男性比女性更喜欢太极，该表述错误；
选项D：原文第一段说明太极拳有数百年历史，第二段说明少林功夫有超过1500年的历史，因此太极拳的历史比少林功夫短，该表述正确。因此答案选D。
【答案】
1. B 2. B 3. D
【知识点】
细节信息定位，阅读理解正误判断，传统武术文化认知
【点评】
本题属于结合中国传统文化的基础阅读题，所有题目都可以通过定位原文细节得出答案，没有设置复杂的干扰项，既考察了学生的英语信息查找能力，也能帮助学生了解太极、少林功夫相关的中国传统文化常识。
