模塊3U2一、閱讀理解。閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C和D)中，選出最佳選項。Following the crowd may not always be in a persons best interest.But new research suggests that teens who get along with their friends may end up healthier as adults.Scientists have known that close friendships help boost health.Thats true for both teens and adults.The finding inspired Joseph Allen，a psychologist at the University of Virginia，and his team to study whether experiences during teen years would influence adult health.So they followed 171 teens，starting when the kids were just 13.They interviewed each one every year for five years，and also spoke to these teens closest friends，who provided additional information about the quality of their friendships.The same 171 people were interviewed again at ages 25,26 and 27.This time, the questions surveyed each persons overall health.When the researchers analyzed the data，they found a strong connection between a teens behavior and adult health.Teens who had close friends grew up to be the healthier adults.Whether teens held back their feelings or expressed them to close friends also influenced later health.Those who held back their feelings were more likely to be sick as adults.The connection held up even after the scientists accounted for other possible influences on health.Weight，family ine and drug use were all examined.So were mental health issues，such as anxiety and depression.And in these people，such other factors did not explain adult health as well as teen friendships did.Getting along with the crowd may have benefits，says Allen，but there are also drawbacks.Teens who are more independent tend to do better at school and work.And peer pressure may lead some kids to engage in risky behavior，such as smoking，drinking or using drugs.Dealing with it is an ongoing challenge，Allen acknowledges.“Finding the right balance is the key.Teens shouldnt lose heart for not finding this easy.”And，he adds，“Parents need to be understanding about the pressures teens face.”1Where can you probably read this passage?AScience fiction.BHealth column.CFashion magazine.DEntertainment newspaper.2We can learn from Allens study that _.Amany other factors have a greater influence on adult health than teen friendshipsBmental health issues have nothing to do with adult healthCthe same 171 teens were interviewed each year from 13 to 27Dthe teens who couldnt express themselves grew up to be unhealthy3According to what Allen said，we can know that _.Ain order to do better at school，teens should not follow the crowdBthough its challenging for teens to deal with peer pressure，they should not give upCteens will engage in smoking，drinking or using drugs when facing peer pressureDparents should understand their teens and stop them going with friends4What can be inferred from the passage?AThere is nothing bad for teens to follow the crowd.BClose friendships are the most important for peoples health.CTeen friendships may help teens bee healthier adults.DAdult health is only influenced by teen friendships.【解題導語】研究表明，與朋友較少或者沒有朋友的青少年相比，有朋友的青少年在長大后更健康。當然，與朋友相處也有壞處。1B考查推理判斷。通讀全文可知，本文主要介紹青少年時的友誼對青少年成年后健康的影響。據此可知，本文屬于健康知識類文章，故可判斷，本文可能選自“健康專欄”，故B項正確。2D考查細節(jié)理解。根據第三段中的“Whether teens held back.sick as adults”可知，青少年是否向他們的好朋友表達情感也會影響到其成年后的健康，那些壓抑情感的青少年成年后很可能不健康。故D項正確。3B考查細節(jié)理解。根據最后一段內容可知，與朋友相處使得青少年在成年后更加健康的同時也會帶來不利影響，即周圍同齡人帶來的壓力，這些壓力會導致許多問題。分析Allen的話“Finding the right balance is the key.Teens shouldnt lose heart for not finding this easy”可以判斷，青少年要應對這些壓力，找到正確的平衡點是關鍵，不能因為很難找到平衡點就灰心喪氣。故選B。4C考查推理判斷。根據文章第一段第二句“But new research suggests that teens who get along with their friends may end up healthier as adults”可知，與朋友相處的青少年在成年后會更加健康。C項意為“青少年時期的友誼會幫助青少年成為更加健康的成年人”，符合文章意思，故C項正確。根據最后一段第一句“Getting along with the crowd may have benefits，says Allen，but there are also drawbacks”可知，與朋友相處有好處，但是也有一定的缺點，故A項與文意不符；B項錯在“the most”，D項錯在“only”，都太過于絕對。一、單項填空1.My bed _ most of the small room in the back house where we are living now so I have to keep the bookshelf in the living room.A. creates B. occupies C. provides D. possesses【答案】B【解析】create創(chuàng)造，創(chuàng)作；occupy占領，占據；provide提供；possess擁有，所有。句意：我睡的床鋪占據了我現(xiàn)在住的后面屋子小房間的大部分空間，所以我不得不把書櫥放在會客廳里。2.We can see monuments here and there.
