We’ve all experienced peer pressure (同伴压力) . It happens to everybody. However, people have different reactions. Confident people refuse to do things they don’t want to do, but shy and anxious people often give in. It may be because they want to be liked. It may be because they worry that their friends will make fun of them, or perhaps they’re just curious about trying something new. 1. It’s hard being the only one who says no and the question is: how do you do it? 2. If you think that missing maths, or smoking, or going somewhere you know your parents wouldn’t like is a bad idea then the answer is simple: don’t do it. It’s your decision, nobody else’s. You don’t need to be aggressive. You don’t need to shout and scream, but you must be confident and you must be firm. You need to say, “No thanks. I don’t want to do that.” Being on your own against everybody else is very hard, so it can really help to have at least one other peer, or friend, who will say no too. 3.You want friends who will support you when you’re in trouble. You don’t want people who will always agree with the majority. Remember, the most popular people aren’t always the most trustworthy. 4. You can learn a lot from people of your own age. They can teach you great football skills or the best way to do your maths homework. They can recommend music and advise you on fashion. And don’t forget you can tell them things too, and that always feels great. So, find friends who have similar interests. And remember, friendship isn’t about feeling depressed and guilty. 5. A. It may be because they were all born to be stubborn. B. Depression and guilt will surely give you peer pressure. C. Whatever the reason, some people end up doing things the really don’t want to. D. Of course, peer pressure isn’t completely bad. E. Choose your friends carefully. F. Firstly, you must decide what you believe in. G. It’s about sharing experiences and having fun.
The idea of turning recycled plastic bottles into clothing is not new. During the last five years, a large number of clothing companies, businesses and environmental organizations have started turning plastics into fabric to deal with plastic pollution.But there’s a problem with this method. Research now shows that microfibers could be the biggest source of plastic in the sea. Dr. Mark Browne in Santa Barbara, California, has been studying plastic pollution and microfibers for 10 years now. He explains that every time synthetic (合成的)clothes go into a washing machine, a large number of plastic fibers fall off. Most washing machines can’t collect these microfibers. So every time the water gets out of a washing machine, microfibers are entering the sewers and finally end up in the sea. In 2011, Browne wrote a paper stating that a single piece of synthetic clothing can produce more than 1, 900 fibers per wash. Browne collected samples from seawater and freshwater sites around the world, and used a special way to examine each sample.He discovered that every single water sample contained microfibers. This is bad news for a number of reasons. Plastic can cause harm to sea life when eaten. Studies have also shown that plastic can absorb other pollutants. Based on this evidence, it may seem surprising that companies and organizations have chosen to turn plastic waste into clothing as an environmental“solution.”Even though the science has been around for a while, Browne explains that he's had a difficult time getting companies to listen. When he asked well-known clothing companies to support Benign by Design—his research project that seeks to get clothes that have a bad effect on humans and the environment out of the market, Browne didn’t get a satisfying answer. Only one women’s clothing company, Eileen Fisher, offered Browne funding. 1.What has happened during the past five years? A. Fabric has become much stronger. B. Plastic pollution has been less serious. C. Many plastic bottles have been reused. D. Microfibers have been greatly improved. 2.What does Browne think of washing synthetic clothes? A. It is adding microfibers to the clothes. B. It is worsening environmental problems. C. It is making synthetic clothes last longer. D. It is doing great damage to washing machines. 3.What can be inferred about Browne’s Benignby Design research project? A. It has achieved great success. B. It hasn’t got anything done. C. It is known to very few people. D. It is facing some difficulties. 4.What’s the best title for the text? A. It’s important to learn to recycle B. It’s never easy to solve pollution problems C. Recycled plastic clothing: solution or pollution? D. Are human beings moving forward or backward?
English is full of colorful phrases to describe shyness. Someone shy might be called shrinking violet or a wallflower, while for especially nervous types we have the curious expression: they wouldn’t say boo to a goose. None of these are traditionally seen as positive descriptions, even if you like geese. In a culture of go-getting, high achievers, shy people don’t come first. Or that’s what the self-help industry would have you believe. Bookshops are filled with vital tomes(巨著) that promise to help beat social fears and find success in life, love and business. That is why one book, Shrinking Violets: A Field Guide to Shyness, bucks the trend. It became a sudden success across English-language media recently for its new take-on shyness. Author Joe Moran says that despite struggling with shyness and longing for loneliness all his life, being shy can also be "a gift". Freed from the constant urge to participate and compete in social situations, people are liberated to look at the world in new ways, and gain fresh insights. Indeed, many of the world’s great thinkers and artists are introverts(内向的人). Scientists Charles Darwin and Albert Einstein preferred their own company; actress Keira Knightley often finds herself tongue-tied at parties; and Harry Potter author JK Rowling claims she used to be too nervous to even borrow a pen. Moran told BBC Future: "I think shyness probably does turn you into an amateur anthropologist(人类学家), really-you are more likely to be an observer." So, while extroverts make all the noise, they don’t necessarily have the best ideas. If you’re shy, you’ve probably known this for a long time. You just don’t shout about it. 1.When someone is being called a wallflower, he is being ________. A. praised for his grace B. admired for his character C. laughed at for his shyness D. told off for his nervousness 2.The underlined phrase “bucks the trend” in Paragraph 2 probably means “________”. A. going against the trend and succeeds B. changing the public idea completely C. becoming unpopular and unaccepted D. becoming the major concern of people 3.The author mentioned many famous shy people in order to ________. A. point out the harm shyness brings B. disconnect shyness and success C. shows the reasons for shyness D. prove shyness contributes to science 4.What is the author’s attitude towards shyness? A. Opposed. B. Indifferent. C. Supportive. D. Critical.

Many of us live with a roommate at times. Sometimes, there can be problems.Such as whose turn it is to take out the trash, or who should be the one to clear up after dinner?1. 2.There' s always someone to talk to, so you need never be lonely. Besides these obvious benefits, there are some you may not notice.3.when living with others.To examine the effect of living alone,Australian university researchers did much research and found that people living alone tended to eat less fresh food including fruits and vegetables,which can have side effects on long-term health. However, those living with others generally got benefits from a more varied diet compared to those living alone. 4. The researchers believe the social and cultural roles played by cooking, food preparation and eating may be important considerations. For example,those living with friends have someone else to go shopping with, and thus, they are more likely to buy higher-quality fresh food regularly. In addition, a person living alone can eat whatever they want at any time of the day. However, it' s helpful to have someone around who questions your decision to eat frozen pizza at 3:O0 am.5. So, if you now live alone, fighting a losing battle against poor eating habits, why not consider sharing a home with someone else ? A. However,There are always ways to solve these problems. B. You know that there' s always someone else around who can help you feel safer. C. However, living with another person also comes with many benefits. D. For example, we 're actually more likely to eat healthier food. E. In other words, roommates can draw your attention to such an unhealthy routine. F.Living with roommates will have a good atmosphere. G. What could explain this?
The world’s insects are hurtling down the path to extinction, threatening a “catastrophic collapse of nature’s ecosystems”, according to the first global scientific review. More than 40% of insect species are declining and a third are endangered, the analysis found. The rate of extinction is eight times faster than that of mammals, birds and reptiles. “It should be of huge concern to all of us, for insects are at the heart of every food web, they pollinate the large majority of plant species, keep the soil healthy, recycle nutrients, control pests, and much more. Love them or loathe them, we humans cannot survive without insects, ” said Prof Dave Goulson at the University of Sussex in the UK. The analysis, published in the journal Biological Conservation, says intensive agriculture is the main driver of the declines, particularly the heavy use of pesticides. Urbanization and climate change are also significant factors. One of the biggest impacts of insect loss is on the many birds, reptiles, amphibians and fish that eat insects. A small number of adaptable species are increasing in number, but not nearly enough to outweigh the big losses. Matt Shardlow, at the conservation charity Buglife, said: “It is gravely sobering to see this collation of evidence that demonstrates the pitiful state of the world’s insect populations. It is increasingly obvious that the planet’s ecology is breaking and there is a need for an intense and global effort to stop and reverse these dreadful trends.” 1.What does “are hurtling down ”underlined mean? A. To climb very slow in a straight direction B. To move very fast in a particular direction. C. To become lower in value or level quickly D. To speed up suddenly in a particular direction 2.According to the passage what caused the declines of the insects EXCEPT? A. Intensive agriculture B. Urbanization C. Climate change D. Pests control. 3.In paragraph 4, the author wants to stress the decline of insects A. by giving the examples B. by making the comparison C. by giving the definition. D. by making the explanation 4.What is the main idea of the text? A. Sharply decreasing insects numbers threaten damage of nature. B. The impacts will be brought by the insect loss. C. The effective measures are taken to stop the scary trends. D. The leading factors cause insects decline
Children are starting on digital devices at ever younger ages, and opinions on the effects of children's digital-media habits are deeply polarised.(两极分化的). Jean Twenge, a psychology professor, thinks excessive use of the internet and social media makes children lonely and depressed and poses serious risks to their physical and particularly their mental health, sometimes to the point of driving them to suicide. However, Daniel Kardefelt-Winther of the Innocenti research office of Unicef examined various evidence and found less cause for alarm than is often suggested.Most of the studies he examined seem to show that the technology helps children stay in touch with their friends and make new ones. The relationship between the use of digital technology and children's mental health, broadly speaking, appears to be u-shaped.Researchers have found that moderate use is beneficial, whereas either no use at all or extreme use could be harmful. What worries some experts more is that screens are becoming part of the middle-class armoury( 武器 ) for perpetuating( 巩固 ) social advantage.Children from well-off homes are enrolled in private classes to learn skills like "How to be a YouTuber", which poorer parents cannot afford. 1.What is the second paragraph mainly about? A. The disadvantages of overusing digital media. B. The bad effects of using digital media. C. Several bad impacts of using digital media. D. The advantages of overusing digital media. 2.What is Daniel Kardefelt-Winther’s attitude to the use of digital media? A. Objective B. Favorable C. Indifferent D. Uncertain 3.What can you infer from the last paragraph? A. Not all Children from rich homes can attend private classes B. Not all Children from poor homes can learn skills like“how to be a YouTuber”. C. Digital media is the only way of strengthening the middle-class. D. Digital media can widen class gap. 4.What is the best title for the text? A. Should children interact with digital media ? B. Should parents allow their children interact with digital media? C. What children do to interact with digital devices. D. How children interact with digital devices.
