Or, at least,they'll live healthier and more productive lives than the "cool" kids will.The study looked at 13-year-olds who acted old for their age by having "cool" behavior, such as early romantic relationships. They were seen as "cool" and popular kids. But as they grew up, things changed. The study found that these kids tended to have problems with drugs and relationships by their early 20s.Their behavior was no longer linked with popularity. Instead,they were thought to be less socially skilled by their peers. Besides, the average "cool" kids, by age 22, did more poorly than the average kids in the study. They had a 45 percent greater rate of problems due to drugs and alcohol. They also had a 22 percent greater rate of criminal behavior. The study also found that these kids failed to develop important life skills. They spent so much time trying to seem cool. They didn't develop the skills needed for meaningful friendships.The study followed 86 male and 98 female middle school students for a 10-year period. It has some surprising findings. In particular, the study notes that the so-called "cool" behavior is a predictor（预示）of future problems with drugs and alcohol. In fact, it is a better predictor than drug and alcohol use in middle school. However, one conclusion of the study is welcome.Researchers said that parents shouldn't worry too much if their kids don't seem that popular.If a kid prefers to spend Saturday nights at home watching a movie or reading instead of going out with friends, that is not a cause for concern. Many "uncool" kids, they said, do much better later on than the popular kids do.1Gentle kids are less healthy when they grow up.ATrueBFalseCNot Given2"Cool" kids try to imitate adult behavior.ATrueBFalseCNot Given3Romantic relationships seem cool to some teenagers.ATrueBFalseCNot Given4"Uncool" kids are more likely to commit crimes.ATrueBFalseCNot Given5"Cool" kids have better life skills than "uncool" kids.ATrueBFalseCNot Given6"Uncool" kids spend most of their time studying.ATrueBFalseCNot Given7The study followed the students for a decade.ATrueBFalseCNot Given8"Cool" kids marry earlier than "uncool" kids.ATrueBFalseCNot Given9Parents needn't worry if their kids are "uncool".ATrueBFalseCNot Given10"Cool" kids remain popular all their lives.ATrueBFalseCNot Given第二部分：阅读选择（第 1115 题，每题 2 分，共 10 分）阅读下面短文，请从短文所给各题的 4 个选项（A、B、C、D）中选出 1 个最佳选项，并在答题卡相应位置上将该项涂黑。It is estimated that there are more than 8 million restaurants in the world today. So it might surprise you to learn that restaurants as we know have only existed for a few centuries.Before 1765, there were no restaurants. There was nowhere in which a server brought you food and drink that you chose from a menu. In fact, there was no menus anywhere.There were places where travelers could eat centuries before that. The countryside was full ofinns that would serve food. And there were bars where one could get a drink. The rich could also eat meals supplied by private cooks. But there was nothing that could be called a "restaurant".A Frenchman changed that. In 1765, he opened a place in Paris that sold soups. On his sign,he used the term "restaurant" to describe what he was selling. Soups were considered "restorative", so he called them "restaurants". Finally, people started buying his soups even when not ill. And as time went on, people began to use the term "restaurant" to refer to the place where soup was sold rather than the soup itself. More "restaurants" opened up in France,and people began to buy soups more regularly.Then, restaurants in Paris began to serve food other than soups. In the 1780s, menus started to appear. By the 1800s, there were many types of restaurants, and the restaurant concept was spread throughout the British Empire.A slow start gave way to rapid growth. Cities and towns around the world are filled with restaurants today. It is estimated that there are 1.6 million restaurants in Europe. In America,there are nearly a half million restaurants. Today, diners have millions of choices.11Before 1765, travelers could have meals at a(n)_.AbarBinnCrestaurantDcenteenAsoupsBdessertsCdrinksDfruits13The word "restorative" (Line 3, Para.3) most probably means_.Ahaving a special flavorBmaking you happierChaving a pleasant smellDmaking you heathier14The restaurant concept started in_.AAmericaBBritainCGermanyDFrance15The best title for this text is_.ADefinition of RestaurantBImportance of RestaurantCOrigin of RestaurantDTypes of Restaurant第三部分：概括段落大意和补全句子（第 1625 题，每题 1 分，共 10 分）阅读下面短文，请完成短文后的 2 项测试任务：（1）从第 1619 题后所给的 5 个选项中为第 14 段每段选择 1 个正确的段落大意；（2）从第 2025 题后所给的 7 个选项中选择 6 个正确选项，分别完成每个句子。在答题卡相应位置上将答案选项涂黑。How to Protect the Art of Public SpeakingIf you want to become the type of speaker you've always wanted to be, read the following suggestions.1You can't go from a nervous speaker to a star speaker overnight. You shouldn't expect to.Give yourself time to get used to a large audience. Start with smaller groups and get as much feedback as you can. Keep on practicing and developing your skills.2Be familiar with your speech materials. That doesn't mean memorizing your speech, which can lack enthusiasm and naturalness. Know your key talking points, supporting details and ways to move from one point to the next.3Positive energy can be passed. If you're excited and enthusiastic, your audience will be, too.You'll be surprised at the positive cycle that creates: An enthusiastic audience can add even more energy to you. Use hand gestures. When appropriate, smile, smile, smile.4Find friendly, interested faces in the audience and speak to them. Look into their eyes. It helps prevent you from staring off into the distance or reading from notes. It also helps make you feel like you are talking in a conversation rather than speaking to a group.5When you look great, you feel great. That makes you confident. Looking great doesn't mean wearing new clothes. It means wearing clothes and shoes you feel comfortable and appropriate to the setting. You can't go wrong with business suit. Simple is fine, but you should look clean from head to toe.16Paragraph 1_ABe enthusiasticBKnow your materialsCMake eye contactDKnow your audienceEImprove graduallyFDress appropriately17Paragraph 2_ABe enthusiasticBKnow your materialsCMake eye contactDKnow your audienceEImprove graduallyFDress appropriately18Paragraph 3_ABe enthusiasticBKnow your materialsCMake eye contactDKnow your audienceEImprove graduallyFDress appropriately19Paragraph 4_ABe enthusiasticBKnow your materialsCMake eye contactDKnow your audienceEImprove graduallyFDress appropriately20Paragraph 5 _.ABe enthusiasticBKnow your materialsCMake eye contactDKnow your audienceEImprove graduallyFDress appropriately21Feedback helps speakers_.Alack of enthusiasmBmake you look greatCa positive atmosphereDimprove their speaking skillsEstop you from reading your notesFbecome a good listener22Memorizing materials may lead to_.Alack of enthusiasmBmake you look greatCa positive atmosphereDimprove their speaking skillsEstop you from reading your notesFbecome a good listener23Hand gestures and smiles help create_.Alack of enthusiasmBmake you look greatCa positive atmosphereDimprove their speaking skillsEstop you from reading your notesFbecome a good listener24Looking into the eyes of the audience helps_.Alack of enthusiasmBmake you look greatCa positive atmosphereDimprove their speaking skillsEstop you from reading your notesFbecome a good listener25Wearing right clothes may_.Alack of enthusiasmBmake you look greatCa positive atmosphereDimprove their speaking skillsEstop you from reading your notesFbecome a good listener第四部分：填句补文（第 2630 题，每题 2 分，共 10 分）下面的短文有 5 处空白，短文后有 6 个句子，其中 5 个取自短文，请根据短文内容将其分别放回原有位置，以恢复文章原貌，并在答题卡相应位置上将答案选项涂黑。Remaining ActiveOur body is an amazing object,（26）_If you are inactive most of the time, your body will quickly become tired when it should be active.
