2. 【2019·全国卷I，D】During the rosy years of elementary school(小学), I enjoyed sharing my dolls and joes, which allowed me to eep my high social status. I was the queen of the playground. Then came my tweens and teens, and mean girls and cool ids. They rose in the rans not by being friendly but by smoing cigarettes, breaing rules and playing joes on others, among whom I soon found myself.Popularity is a well-eplored subject in social psychology. Mitch Prinstein, a professor of clinical psychology sorts the popular in to two categories the liable and the status seeers. The liables’ plays-well-with-others qualities strengthen schoolyard friendships, jump-start interpersonal sills and, when tapped early, are employed ever after in life and wor. Then there’s the ind of pop ularity that appears in adolescence status born of power and evendishonorable behavior.Enviable as the cool ids may have seemed, Dr. Prinstein’s studies show unpleasant consequences. Those who were highest in status in high school, as well as those least lied in elementary school, are “most liely to engage(从事)in dangerous and risy behavior.”In one study, Dr. Prinstein eamined the two types of popularity in 235 adolescents, scoring the least lied, the most lied and the highest in status based on student surveys(调查研究). “We found that the least well-lied teens had become more aggressive over time toward their classmates. But so had those who were high in status. It clearly showed that while liability can lead to healthy adjustment, high status has just the opposite effect on us."Dr. Prinstein has also found that the qualities that made the neighbors want you on a play date-sharing, indness, openness — carry over to later years and mae you better able to relate and connect with others.In analying his and other research，Dr. Prinstein came to another conclusion Not only is liability related to positive life outcomes, but it is also responsible for those outcomes, too. "Being lied creates opportunities for learning and for new inds of life eperiences that help s omebody gain an advantage, ” he said.32. What sort of girl was the author in her early years of elementary school?A. Unind.B. Lonely.C. Generous.D. Cool.33. What is the second paragraph mainly about？A. The classification of the popular.B. The characteristics of adolescents.C. The importance of interpersonal sills.D. The causes of dishonorable behavior34. What did Dr. Prinstein’s study find about the most lied ids?A. They appeared to be aggressive.B. They tended to be more adaptable.C. They enjoyed the highest status.D. They performed well academically.35. What is the best title for the tet?A. Be Nice-You Won’t Finish LastB. The Higher the Status, the BeerC. Be the Best-You Can Mae ItD. More Self-Control, Less Aggressiveness【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。
