Many teenagers smoke, drink, wear strange hairs and even fight. Basically, they are often taking risks. Earlier studies have shown that teenagers are more likely to make irrational decisions than people from any other age group, including children and adults. Is it that teenagers are too young to tell right from wrong? Not really. So what explains their risky behavior? According to Laurence Steinberg, a professor at Temple University, US, that is because teens care a lot about how their peers (同龄人) view them thats the effect of “peer influence”, reported Science Daily. As children enter their teenage years, they spend more time with their friends and classmates and also become more sensitive to their feedback (反馈). This sensitivity drives teenagers to focus on the short-term benefits of making risky choices and overlook the costs. In a test, a group of teenagers were asked to play a video driving game. When they played with their friends watching, they took more chances and drove more carelessly because that would increase their possibility of winning. But when they played alone, they tended to drive more safely. Why does pressure from peers have such a big influence on teens behavior?As Steinberg sees it, a teenagers brain is like a car with a good accelerator (油门) but a weak brake (刹车). The “accelerator”, the brains ability to notice the benefits of things, is fully developed by teenage years while the “brake”, the brain part related to controlling impulses (冲动) and long-term thinking, is still not mature (成熟的). When teens are under the pressure of being judged by their peers, they tend to push hard on the accelerator. Given how weak the brake is, it is likely that they are going to end up in a crash. But the good news here, according to Steinberg, is that a violent teenager doesnt necessarily become a violent adult. About two-thirds to three-quarters of violent youth grow out of it. “They get more self-controlled,” Steinberg told Live Science. Also, people who havent committed a violent crime by age 19 are less likely to start doing it later, added Steinberg.28.The underlined word “irrational” in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to _. A.crazyB.quickC.carefulD.independent 29.Why are teenagers likely to take risks according to the text? A.They are too young to tell right from wrong. B.They are eager to challenge themselves. C.They care a lot about what their peers think of them. D.Their brains are more sensitive to thrilling events. 30.How does Steinberg explain the influence of peer pressure on teens behavior? A.By performing an in-depth analysis. B.By giving examples. C.By using a metaphor (比喻). D.By presenting research findings. 31.What can we conclude from the text? A.Those who love taking risks are more likely to commit violent crimes. B.The majority of teenagers become less violent when they grow up. C.Violent teenagers often grow to be adults who cannot control themselves well. D.People who are over 19 years old are less likely to commit a crime than teenagers. DThe more we do a thing, the more we tend to like doing it; and if we do not continue to do it, we feel uncomfortable. This is called the force of habits, and the force of habits should be fought against.Habits, whether good or bad, are gradually formed. When a person does a certain thing, he is driven by some unseen force to do the same thing repeatedly; then a habit is formed. Once a habit is formed, it is difficult, and sometimes impossible, to get rid of. It is therefore very important that we should pay great attention to the formation of habits. Children often form bad habits, some of which remain with them as long as they live. Older persons also form bad habits as long as they live, and sometimes become ruined by them.There are other habits which, when formed in early life, are of great help. Many successful men say that much of their success has something to do with certain habits in early life, such as early rising, honesty and so on.Among the habits which children should not form are laziness, lying, stealing and so on. They are all easily formed habits. Unfortunately, older persons often form bad habits, which should have been avoided.We should keep from all these bad habits, and try to form such habits as will be good for others and ourselves. Remember: Habits cure habits.32.Generally speaking, it is difficult for one to _. A.form bad habits and easy for him to form good habits B.get rid of good habits and bad habits once formed C.get rid of bad habits and easy for him to form good habits D.get rid of good habits and easy for him to form bad habits 33.We should pay much attention to the formation of habits because _. A.habits are of great help to everyone of us B.a man can never get rid of the bad habits C.we are forced to do them repeatedly D.its hard and even not possible to get them away 34._ are formed little by little. A.Good habits B.Bad habits C.Both good habits and bad habits D.Neither good habits nor bad habits 35.According to the passage, early rising or honesty _. A.is such a habit as should not have been got rid of B.is an early formed habit that is with one as long as he lives C.is such a habit as will be kept from D.is a habit that has something to do with success第二节 (共5小题; 每小题2分, 满分10 分) 根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Be a Green ChildWhat does it mean to be green? “Green” is more than（不仅仅）just a color. 36 Why green? Plants are green, and without them the earth wouldnt be such a lovely home for us human beings. What can we do? Heres a four-step guide to being green:Reduce It! 37 For example, a shorter shower means you used less water fuel since your house uses fuel to run the water heater（热水器）that warmed up the water.Reuse It!Sometimes people call ours a “throwaway society”. That means that were a little too willing to throw away old stuff(东西) and buy new stuff. 38 For example, if your baby brother becomes older and loses interest in his plastic basketball hoop(篮圈), why not give it to another family who has a little kid?Recycle It!Recycling has never been easier. Many communities will pick it up right in front of your house and some towns even require it. Recycled goods go to a recycling center, where they can be turned into new cans, battles, and paper.Enjoy It!Its true that rubbish and pollution are problems, but the Earth is still a huge and beautiful place thats ready for you to explore. 39 Go for a hike, visit local centers and gardens, and climb up mountains.But before you travel the globe, take a look at your own backyard. Is there a spot where you could plant a tree or put in a little fruit or vegetable again? 40A.If so, get out there and get your hands dirty. B.Turn off the water when youre brushing your teeth.
