themselves，or others， due to peer pressure.drugs，including alcohol，are a major part of peer pressure.a research institute reports that about 30 percent of the teenagers are offered drugs in middle and high schools.the majority of teens consume their first drink of alcohol at the age of 13.the national household survey on drug use and health from the department of health and human services informs the public that 74.3 percent of the high school students have tried alcohol.a large percentage of those who drink alcohol are also smokers.the american lung association points out that about 3.1 million adolescents are smokers in the us.almost 25 percent of teens between 17 and 18 are regular smokers.peer pressure can affect the behavior，clothing choice，music and movie choice and even the personality.academics can also be affected by peer influence.people can be affected by these factors and remain completely unaware of the changes in their lifestyle，but some people do realize when they are being pressured.just by simply spending time with others，a person can become more like them.“if you are being pressured to do things that you know are wrong，” sheats，a senior，said，“you should get out of that situation and tell a trusted adult.” for people to avoid becoming a victim of peer pressure，they must make their own decisions.judgment of a situation based on ones morals is very important in peer pressure situations.“people，” sheats added，“should follow their own hearts.”46the passage is mainly about_.apeer influence bteenagers lifestylescacademic pressure dmoral judgment47according to the second paragraph，_.ateen smokers are more than teen alcoholicsbalmost a quarter of teens are regular smokerscmost teens begin to try alcohol at the age of 13dabout 30% of teenagers try drugs in middle school48it can be inferred from the passage that_.ano one knows they are being influenced by their friendsbteenagers tend to spend more time with their friendscpeople are more easily influenced by those around themdpeer pressure affects peoples behavior rather than academicsbslow parenting means parenting children in the contact of nature without any interference of materialistic influence.we can also term it as “selfraising”in slow parenting children are allowed to do what they think proper and parents just keep a watch over the child.curiosity of the child leads to exploring and discovering things.parents provide little help only when its too necessary，otherwise keep themselves away from the child and just have a look on him/her.this brings about a feeling of selfdependency and they are encouraged to solve their problems.this is a natural way of learning.when a child is left to learn in a natural environment，the childs natural development takes place.influence of any materialistic way doesnt let the mind develop naturally.watching tv，playing video games or joining classes of dance，swimming or any other sports will not let the mind develop naturally.here creativity of their mind is developed.they explore ideas.the logic behind this is that the kids of animals learn by nature，so can our kids.so let our children play in the garden，to watch flowers，plants，birds，butterflies and other gifts of nature.in the classes of dance，swimming etc.their creativity is influenced and their natural creativity is suppressed.in these classes they are overburdened and cant enhance their creativity.so let them play in the open air or garden withont any burden instead of joining classes.generally parents give toys to their children and explain how to operate them.but those parents who believe in slow parenting give toys and observe how the children are managing them.their skill to learn and understand comes out.maybe the process is slow，but it will be their exploration，which will make them selfdependent，and selfcapable to learn.49in slow parenting，parents_.agive the whole directions to what their children dobkeep a close watch over their childrencgive their children freedom to do what they think properdset limits to what their children do50what is the main advantage of slow parenting according to the passage?akeeping children away from materialistic influence.barousing childrens curiosity.cmaking children interested in exploring naturedhelping children to be independent.51we can infer from the third paragraph that_.aexploring nature is a good way of slow parentingbchildren cant learn by nature like the kids of animalscslow parenting should be done in a logical waydchildren should join some classes52the author believes joining various classes_.acan train childrens ability of solving problemsbis no good to childrens creativitycis a necessary part of slow parentingdalso helps improve childrens creativitychave you dreamed of building your own machine？do you wish you could invent something new？here we look at a few british inventions of recent times.adaptive glassesdo you wear glasses？if so，can you imagine life without them？in 1985，joshua silver，a professor at oxford university，asked himself，“can i invent a pair of glasses that could be changed by the wearer？” he designed two plastic lenses (透镜) that are filled with a special liquid.using syringes (注射器) you change the liquid between the lenses until you can see clearly.the glasses are not beautiful but they are easy to use and cheap to make.the windup radiowhen you switch your tv on tonight，think about all those people without electricity.thinking about this，trevor baylis came up with the idea of designing a radio that could be powered by hand.in common with joshua silver he wanted his invention to be cheap and easy to use.he wanted even the poorest people in developing countries，who dont have electricity and cannot afford batteries，to use it. the radio has a generator (发电机) which is powered by turning a handle.in 1996 it won the bbc design award for best product and best design.the dyson vacuum ( 真空) cleaner in many homes around the world you can see a cleaner that looks like a spaceship.this is the dyson vacuum cleaner which uses something called ”cyclonic separation“ to separate the dirt.you do not need a bag for your cleaner and it does not get blocked so it is very practical.the idea came to sir james dyson after he kept having problems with his vacuum cleaner.he decided he could design a better one and in 1993 he opened his own factory.the dyson is now one of the bestselling cleaners in the uk and dyson is believed to have earned over a billion pounds.the zapata flyboardhave you ever dreamed of zooming through the water and leaping in the air like a dolphin？now you can thanks to a flyboard，built by water sports enthusiast frank zapata.with it you can dive back in the water and out again.its possible to jump to incredible heights out of the waterover 30 feet.the basic flyboard model comes in at 4,200.so keep dreaming and inventing.one day you might get it right.53which might be the best title for the passage?agreatest inventions bscientists stories cmagic glasses dbeautiful minds54what can we learn about adaptive glasses?athey are very expensive.bthe inventor is a student.cthe glasses are fragile.dthey dont look very nice.55which invention won an award?aadaptive glasses.bthe windup radio.cthe dyson vacuum cleaner.dthe zapata flyboard.56the dyson vacuum cleaner was invented with the purpose of_.ahelping people use cleaners more easilybmaking dyson a rich businessmanckeeping the house cleaner than beforedtaking the place of human cleaners dwhat happens inside the skull of a soccer player who repeatedly heads a soccer ball？that question motivated a challenging new study of the brains of experienced players that has caused discussion and debate among soccer players，and some anxiety among those of us with soccerplaying children.for the study，researchers at the albert einstein college of medicine in new york selected 34 adults，men and women.all of the volunteers had played soccer since childhood and now competed yearround in adult soccer leagues.each filled out a detailed questionnaire developed especially for this study to determine how many times they had headed a soccer ball in the previous year，as well as whether they had experienced any known concussions (脑震荡) in the past.then the players completed computerized tests of their memory and other learning skills and had their brains scanned，using a complicated new mri technique which can find structural changes in the brain that cant be seen during most scans.according to the data they presented at a radiological society of north america meeting last month，the researchers found that the players who had headed the ball more than about 1,100 times in the previous 12 months showed significant loss of white matter in parts of their brains involved with memory，attention and the processing of visual information，compared with players who had headed the ball fewer times.this pattern of white matter loss is “similar to those seen in traumatic (外伤的) brain injury”，like that after a serious concussion，the researchers reported，even though only one of these players was reported to have ever experienced a concussion.the players who had headed the ball about 1,100 times or more in the past year were also generally worse at recalling lists of words read to them，forgetting or fumbling the words far more often than players who had headed the ball less.57the passage is most probably a_.anews report bresearch reportcstory for soccer players dtext for doctors58from the passage we can conclude that frequent heading may have_.asignificant effect on ones brainblittle effect on ones braincnothing to do with the brain injurydones memory improved59what is likely to be the cause of memory loss?aplaying soccer frequently.btests of their memory.cwhite matter loss.dinformation processing.60the underlined word “fumbling” is closest in meaning to_.aremembering

afford. it might feel great at the time but hasty（匆忙的）spending hurts a lot later on. enjoy lifes simple pleasures and save as much as you can. expensive things dont create lasting happiness. careful spending will bring you greater enjoyment in the long run.62. _ to be happy we need continuous growth. the best way to grow is life-long education. this doesnt mean you need to pursue a doctorate or
