(2018·惠州高三调研考试)Following the crowd may not always be in
a person’s 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.That’s
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 person’s overall health. When the
researchers analyzed the data, they found a strong connection between a teen’s 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 income 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 shouldn’t
lose heart for not finding this easy.”And, he adds，“Parents need to be understanding about the
pressures teens face.”
【解题导语】 研究表明，与朋友较少或者没有朋友的青少年相比，有朋友的青少年在长大后更健康。当然，与朋友相处也有坏处。
1．Where can you probably read this passage?
A．Science fiction.
B．Health column.
C．Fashion magazine.
D．Entertainment newspaper.
B 解析：文章出处题。通读全文可知，本文主要介绍青少年时的友谊对青少年成年后健康的影响。据此可知，本文属于健康知识类文章，故可判断，本文可能选自“健康专栏”。故B项正确。
2．We can learn from Allen’s study that________．
A．many other factors have a greater influence on adult health than teen friendships
B．mental health issues have nothing to do with adult health
C．the same 171 teens were interviewed each year from 13 to 27
D．the teens who couldn’t express themselves grew up to be unhealthier
D 解析：细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Whether teens held back...sick as adults”可知，青少年是否向他们的好朋友表达情感也会影响到其成年后的健康，那些压抑情感的青少年成年后很可能不健康。故D项正确。
3．According to what Allen said, we can know that________．
A．in order to do better at school, teens should not follow the crowd
B．though it’s challenging for teens to deal with peer pressure, they should not give up
C．teens will engage in smoking, drinking or using drugs when facing peer pressure
D．parents should understand their teens and stop them going with friends
B 解析：细节理解题。根据最后一段内容可知，与朋友相处使得青少年在成年后更加健康的同时也会带来不利影响，即周围同龄人带来的压力，这些压力会导致许多问题。分析Allen的话“Finding the right balance is the key.Teens shouldn’t lose heart for not finding this
easy”可以判断，青少年要应对这些压力，找到正确的平衡点是关键，不能因为很难找到平衡点就灰心丧气。故选B。
4．What can be inferred from the passage?
A．There is nothing bad for teens to follow the crowd.
B．Close friendships are the most important for people’s health.
C．Teen friendships may help teens become healthier adults.
D．Adult health is only influenced by teen friendships.
C 解析：推理判断题。根据文章第一段第二句“But new research suggests that teens who
get along with their friends may end up healthier as adults”可知，与朋友相处的青少年在成年后会更加健康。C项意为“青少年时期的友谊会帮助青少年成为更加健康的成年人”，符合文章意思。故C项正确。

(2018·辽宁五校联考)In the dead of winter，we don’t typically
think about spending time outdoors，but according to many physicians
we should.The sun is our greatest source of a vitamin that is essential
for good health—Vitamin D. This important vitamin strengthens bones and teeth and is linked to the prevention of heart
disease，cancer and many other lifethreatening diseases.The recommended daily requirement is
400－600 International Units (IU). In summer, people with dark brown eyes and darker skin turn
sunlight from just 15 minutes outside without sunscreen into adequate amounts of Vitamin D.
Even during winter, just a 10minute walk at midday can keep the body’s Vitamin D at
healthy levels.During brief winter walks，we receive the greatest benefits when we wear no
sunscreen and expose as much skin to the sun as possible.
Vitamin D can be also obtained from foods.Salmon is one of the best sources of the
Vitamin.Egg yolks(蛋黄)，cheese，mushrooms and some animal organs contain smaller quantities
of it.
To attract consumers，food companies add Vitamin D to some of their milk products.The

(2018·河南实验中学模拟)At the end of every year, Time picks the best
25 inventions that are “making the world better and smarter”. Here we have
picked three of this year’s inventions that could be a part of your life in the
near future.
The levitating(悬浮的) light bulb
This special light bulb was invented by U．S. artist and scientist Simon Morris. He got the
idea of making a light bulb float from hoverboards(悬浮滑板), which he used to dream of having
as a kid.
But the floating is not the most amazing part. The rejection force between the opposite ends
of the magnets(磁铁), which were put in the bottom of the bulb and in the wooden base, does the
job. What’s new here is a technology called induction(电磁感应). It allows the light bulb to get
power from the base even they are not in contact.
Shoes that tie themselves

(2018·成都高三摸底测试)The Scottish composer Evelyn Glennie lost nearly all her hearing
as a young girl，yet went on to a very successful career in music including winning Grammy
awards.When somebody asks her，“How do you hear？” She responds，“How do you hear？Is it
only with your ears？” For Glennie，and for us too，listening is not only hearing，but is
understanding.We need to listen to what is said and unsaid，and also how it is said.
It’s important to hear what people say accurately.As Mark Twain said，“The difference
between the right word and the almost right word is the difference between lightning and the
lightning bug(萤火虫)．”If you miss something or you’re not sure you’ve heard accurately，ask
the speakers.At this point you’re not evaluating what they say，but just looking for accuracy and

(2018·长沙模拟)KBG84 is a one-of-a-kind girl band in Japan consisting of 33 singing and
dancing grannies，with an average age of 84. The oldest member, Haru Yamashiro, is 97 years old!
The new hand, based in the remote island of Kohama in Okinawa，is a huge hit in the country—so much so that the members are rather shocked by their success. Their first single—titled
Come on and Dance, Kohama Island—has made it to the top of the charts, and they’ve just
completed a sellout tour of Japan.
“We fell like stars in Tokyo，” added 86-year-old Hideko Kedamori. “Everyone in the
audience had a big smile, which gave us the energy to sing our hearts out. We’re blessed to have
been born in Kohama. Our lyrics are about the island and nature—whales in the sea spouting or
dolphins doing somersaults(空翻)．”

(2018·兰州高考实战模拟)In many developed countries, people
who have high degrees begin to work longer than those who don’t.
About 65% of American men aged 62－74 with a professional degree
are in the workforce(劳动人口), compared with 32% of men who only
finish high school. This gap is part of a deepening divide between the well-educated wealthy and
the unskilled poor. Rapid technological advance has raised the incomes of the highly skilled while
squeezing those of the unskilled. The consequences, for individuals and society, are profound.
The world is facing an astonishing rise in the number of old people, and they will live longer
than ever before. Over the next 20 years the global population of those aged 65 or more will
almost double, from 600 million to 1.1 billion. The experience of the 20th century, when greater

(2018·江西赣中南五校联考)In its early history，Chicago had floods frequently，especially in
the spring，making the streets so muddy that people，horses and carts got stuck.An old joke that
was popular at the time went like this：A man is stuck up to his waist in a muddy Chicago
street.Asked if he needs help，he replies，“No，thanks.I’ve got a good horse under me.”
The city planner decided to build an underground drainage(排水) system，but there simply
wasn’t enough difference between the height of the ground level and the water level.The only two
options were to lower the Chicago River or raise the city.
An engineer named Ellis Chesbrough convinced the city that it had no choice but to build the
pipes above ground and then cover them with dirt.This raised the level of the city’s streets by as
much as 12 feet.
This of course created a new problem：dirt practically buried the first floors of every building
