Their only income is her fathers daily wage of up to 200 rupees (less than $3. 50) for laboring on construction sites.

So not worth the time,” one of your friends says. The others agree. Although you enjoy the game quite a lot, not wanting to argue with them, you go along with the crowd.You have just experienced what is commonly referred to as peer pressure（同伴压力）, also called peer influence. You will adopt a certain type of behavior, dress, or attitude in order to be accepted as part of a group of your “peers”. As a teen, you are likely to have experienced the effect of peer pressure in a number of different areas.We are all influenced by our peers at any age. For teens, as school and other activities take you away from home, you may spend more time with your friends than with your family. As you become more independent, your peers naturally play a greater role in your life.According to Dr. Casey from Cornell University, teens are very quick and accurate in making decisions on their own and in situations where they have time to think. However, when they make decisions in the heat of the moment or in social situations, their decisions are often influenced by factors like peers. In a recent study, teen volunteers played a video driving game, either alone or with friends watching. The researchers discovered that the number of risks teens took more than doubled when their friends were watching, compared with when they played alone. This shows that teens may find it more difficult to control risky behavior when their friends are around, or in situations where they are extremely angry.Just as people can influence us to make unwise choices, they can also influence us to make good ones. A teen might join in a volunteer project because his or her friends are doing it, or get good grades because his or her friends think getting good grades is important. In fact, friends often encourage each other to study, or try out for sports.While we are always influenced by those around us, the decision to act or not is up to us. So when it comes to decision making, the choice is up to you.32. According to the passage, Dr. Casey probably agrees that teens _.A. like to play driving games with their friendsB. prefer situations where they have time to thinkC. may take more risks when their friends are aroundD. are slow in making decisions when they are on their own33. What do the underlined words “in the heat of the moment” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A. When teens avoid possible risks.B. When teens trust their judgment.C. When teens lose control over their anger.D. When teens give consideration to situations.34. What can we learn from the passage?A. Teens are eager to be different from their peers.B. Peer pressure does more harm than good to teens.C. Peer pressure has effects on both teens and adults.D. Teens think it challenging to get good grades at school.35. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Peer Pressure: Is It Necessary to Deal with It?B. Peer Pressure: Is It Possible to Get Away from It?C. Peer Pressure: Its Benefits to Teens and Friend MakingD. Peer Pressure: Its Influence on Teens and Decision Making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。 How to be healthy when your family isnt?
