11.Until now,little research has been conducted on the association between parents'friendships and the emotional well-being of their adolescent children.A new study from researchers at the University of Missouri suggests that mothers'friendships with other adults can impact their adolescent children's relationships with their own friends,particularly the negative aspects of these relationships such as conflict and opposition.
Gary C.Glick,a doctoral candidate at MU,and Amanda Rose,professor in the Department of Psychological Sciences,studied the development of friendships and other peer(同龄人)relationships during adolescence and their impact on psychological adjustment.They found that adolescents may mimic the negative characteristics of their mothers'relationships in their own peer-to-peer friendships suggesting that mothers can serve as role models for their adolescents during formative years.
"Mothers who display high levels of conflict with friends may signal to their children that such behavior is acceptable,or even standard in friendships,"Glick said."Additional findings suggest that adolescents take for granted their reactions to their mothers'conflict with adult friends which may lead to anxiety and depression"
Previous research of this type focused on primary-aged children,but MU researchers wanted to expand their study to focus on the formative adolescent years.Youth ranging in age from 10to 17and their mothers were surveyed separately to measure regarded positive and negative friendship qualities in both groups.Results showed that positive friendship qualities were not always imitated by adolescents; however,negative and unfriendly relationship characteristics exhibited by mothers were much more likely to be copied by the youth studied.
"We know that conflict is a normal part of any relationship-whether it a relationship between a parent and a child,or a mother and her friends-and we're not talking physical fights but oral conflicts,"Glick said."But being exposed to high levels of such conflict generally isn't going to be good for children.Parents should consider whether they are good role models for their children especially where their friends are concerned.When things go wrong,parents should talk with their children about how to act with their friends,but more specifically,how not to act."

32.The word"mimic"(in Para.2)means"B".
A.inherit
B.imitate
C.possess
D.discover
33.In comparison with the previous study,the new study expandedA.
A.research subjects
B.research themes
C.research goals
D.research approaches
34.According to Glick,parents should instruct their childrenC.
A.how to avoid any conflict with friends
B.how to establish a sincere friendship
C.how to deal with a troubled friendship
D.how to put an end to a wrong friendship
35.What does die new study reveal?D
A.Aggressive mothers ruin their children's friendship.
B.Conflicts and opposition form children's characters.
C.Parent-child relationship affects children's growth.
D.Teens mirror negative features of mom's friendships.

分析 本文讲述了一项最新的发现--妈妈的交友方式会影响孩子的交友方式.

解答 32.B.词义猜测题.通过第二段中的"mothers can serve as role models for…"可知孩子们会把母亲作为榜样去"模仿".故选B.
33.A.推理判断题. 由第四段第一句话可知之前的研究和这次的研究选取的研究对象不同,之前的研究对象是小学年纪的孩子,这次的研究对象是处 在性格形成期的青春期孩子. 故选A.
34.C.推理判断题.根据文章最后一句话"When things go wrong,parents should talk with their children about how to act with their friends,but more specifically,how not to act."可知当孩子面临麻烦的友谊时父母要给予知道.故选C.
35.D.主旨大意题.根据第一段中的"A new study from researchers at the University of Missouri suggests that mothers'friendships with other adults can impact their adolescent children's relationships with their own friends,particularly the negative aspects of these relationships such as conflict and opposition."可知妈妈们的交友之道"教坏"青少年,故选D.

点评 本篇文章主旨句即在第一段.因此考生要重视文章的标题和文章的首句,因为文章的标题或首句往往就是文章的主题,有利于考生理解全文内容.

Another is a clean water rule to protect small waterways and wetlands from development by the Environmental Protection Agency.
Trump has said he wants to cancel and replace a third policy,the national health care law,known as"Obamacare."
The Trump administration has promised other major changes.In education,for example,there are plans to give parents more choices in selecting schools for their children,including private,religious schools.

16.A bite from a tsetse fly is an extremely unpleasant experience.To make matters worse,several species of tsetse fly can transmit diseases.One of the most dangerous is a parasite(寄生虫)that causes"sleeping sickness".
After the initial bite,sleeping sickness symptoms often start with a fever,headaches and aching muscles.As the illness goes on,those infected become increasingly tired,which is where it gets its name.
It is worth noting that sleeping sickness is no longer as deadly as it once was.In the early 20th Century several hundred thousand people were infected each year.By the 1960s the disease was considered"under control"and had reached very low numbers,making its spread more difficult.But in the 1970s there was another major infection,which took 20 years to control.Since then,better screening programs and earlier treatments have reduced the number of cases dramatically.In 20 is this figure dropped to fewer than 3,000.The World Health Organization (WHO) hopes the disease will be completely removed by 2020.More problematically,a series of new studies have shown that the parasite is more complicated than previously believed.
Sleeping sickness has always been considered-and analyzed-as a blood disease,because the parasites can readily be discovered in the blood of its victims.However,in a recent study found that the parasite can stay in the skin and fat,as well as in the blood.There may even be a higher density(密度)of the parasite in the skin than in the blood.That means a person can have no symptoms but still both harbor the disease and spread it.The finding could explain the mysterious 1970s infection,and why the disease can spring up in areas that had previously been cleared.

28.What's the danger of a tsetse fly bite?B
A.It makes people sleepy.
B.It causes skin disease.
C.It brings about deaths.
D.It transmits deadly parasites.
29.What can we infer about sleeping sickness from Paragraph 3?D
A.It's still a threat to human health.
B.It's not that dangerous at present.
C.It's incurable in the early 20th century.
D.It's completely under control in the 1960s.
30.What does the underlined"harbor"most probably mean?A
A.carry
B.resist
C.exchange
D.hide
31.What does the latest research indicate according to the passage?D
A.Sleeping sickness is a blood disease.
B.Skin is more suitable for the parasite to grow.
C.Sleeping sickness can be spread with no signs.
D.Parasites in the skin caused the 1970s infection.

20.Once,when I was a teenager,my father and I were standing in line to buy tickets for the circus (马戏).Finally,there was only one family between us and the ticket counter.
   This family made a big impression on me.There were eight children,all probably under the age of twelve.You could tell they didn't have a lot of money.
   Their clothes were not expensive,but they were clean.The children were well-behaved,all of them standing in line,two-by-two behind their parents,holding hands.They were excitedly talking about the clowns,elephants,and other acts they would see that night with their brothers or sisters in a low voice.
   One could sense they had never been to the circus before.It promised to be highlight of their young lives.The father and mother were at the head of the pack,standing proud as could be.The mother was holding her husband's hand,looking up at him as if to say,"You are my knight in shining armor."
   He was smiling and responding in pride,looking back at her as if to say,"You got that right."The ticket lady asked the father how many tickets he wanted.He proudly responded,"Please let me buy eight children's tickets and two adult tickets so I can take my family to the circus."
   The ticket lady gave the price.The man's wife let go of his hand,her head dropped,and his lips began to shake.The father leaned a little closer and asked,"How much did you say?"
   The ticket lady again quoted the price.The man didn't have enough money.
   How was he supposed to turn and tell his eight children that he didn't have enough money to take them to the circus?
   Actually we were not wealthy in any sense.So I understand how the kids would feel.I felt sorry for them.

Paragraph 1
Seeing what was going on,my dad put his hand in his pocket,pulled out a $20 bill and dropped it on the ground.Then he picked it op and tapped the man on the shoulder and said,"Excuse me,sir,this fell out of your pocket.'The man turned around and saw the money.He knew what was going on,he looked straight into my dad's eyes,took my dad's hand in both of his,squeezed tightly onto the $20 bill,and with his lip shakingand a tear running down his cheek,he replied,"Thank you,thank you,sir.This really means a lot to me and my family."
Paragraph 2
That day my father and I went back to our car and drove home without any tickets.We didn't go to the circus that night,when I asked dad why he did so,Dad said,"My child,it was a desperate,heartbreaking and embarrassing situation for a father.Surely he wasn't begging for a handout,but he reminded me of my father,when I was young."He paused for a while,as if wandering in his memory."We should appreciate what we have obtained from life and seize every opportunity to help others.We didn't go to the circus tonight,but we didn't go without.".
