    Students who date (约会) in middle school have significantly worse study skills, are four times more likely to drop out of school and report twice as much alcohol and tobacco use than their single classmates, according to new research from the University of Georgia.

    “Romantic relationships are a symbol of adolescence（青春期）, but very few studies have examined how adolescents are different in the development of these relationships.” said Pamela Orpinas, study author and professor in the College of Public Health.

    Orpinas followed a group of 624 students over a seven-year period from 6th to 12th grade. Each year, the group of students completed a survey indicating whether they had dated and reported the frequency of different behaviors, including the use of drugs and alcohol. Their teachers completed questionnaires (调查表) about the students' academic efforts. He found some students never or hardly ever reported dating from middle to high school, and these students had the best study skills according to their teachers. Other students dated infrequently in middle school but increased the frequency of dating in high school.

    “At all points in time, teachers rated the students who reported the lowest frequency of dating as having the best study skills and the students with the highest dating as having the worst study skills,” according to the journal article. Study skills refer to behaviors that lead to academic success such as doing work for extra credit, being well organized, finishing homework, working hard and reading assigned chapters.

    “Dating a classmate may have the same emotional complications of dating a co-worker,” Orpinas said, “When the couple break up, they have to continue to see each other in class and perhaps witness the ex-partner dating someone else. It is reasonable to think this could be linked to depression and divert (转移) attention from studying.”

    “Dating should not be considered a ceremony of growth in middle school.”Orpinas concluded.

    1.According to the passage, students who date in middle school may_____.

    A. have poorer academic performances

    B.be more likely to hurt others

    C. enjoy better school lives

    D. are less likely to use alcohol and tobacco

    2.When doing his study, Orpinas _____.

    A. followed a group of students of 6th and 12th grade

    B. found that the students' study skills have connection with their frequency of dating

    C. completed questionnaires about the students' academic efforts

    D. completed a survey and a report each year

    3.What can possibly happen to the school couples after they break up?

    A. They will miss their ex-partners sometimes.

    B. They don't want to see each other any longer.

    C. Their attention to studying will be affected.

    D. They will think it's reasonable to get depressed.

    4.Orpinas’ attitude towards dating in middle school is _____.

    A. supportive B. negative

    C. indifferent D. positive

    Two students started quarreling at school. One student shouted dirty words at the other, and a fight began. What can be done to stop fights like this at school? In some schools, the disputants sit down with peer mediators(同龄调解者). Peer mediators are students with special training in this kind of problems.

    Peer mediators help the disputants to talk in a friendly way. Here are some of the ways they use:

    3) Keep looking at the other person’s eyes when he or she talks.

    How to improve my life? Many people think that they have to accept whatever life throws at them. They'll say, "This is my fate, my destiny. I cannot change it."

    Of course not! You don't have to suffer needlessly. Your destiny depends on you, not on any other outer factors.

    I know someone who says she just accepts what life gives her because she has done everything she can to improve it. Guess what her lifestyle is? She wakes up in the morning, goes to work, comes back home, relaxes, chats with people, watches TV, then goes to sleep. Next day, the same things cycle follows.

    Huh! Is this what she calls "doing her best"? She believes she has tried her best and just accepts it in her heart that this is the life that God has intended for her to live; that her luck can only change if God wills it. Of course God wants us to be happy and live our life to the fullest, but we have to do our share of exerting (运用) the effort to live the life of our dreams.

    Remember that you reap what you sow. You just don't sit around and wait for a million dollars to fall from the sky. You have to get off the couch, get your eyes off the TV screen, get your hands off the phone. Don't expect your luck to change unless you do something about it. If something goes wrong, don't just regard it as a temporary(临时的) setback; but use it as feedback. Learn your lesson, make the most of the situation, and do something to solve the problem. It's not enough to think positively（积极地）; you also have to act positively.

    If someone's life is in the trouble, do you just hope and pray that things will turn out fine? Of course not! You get to do anything you can to save the person. So it is with your own life. It is not enough to hope for the best, but you have to do your best. In other words, don't just stand (or sit ) there, do something to improve your life.

    1.According to the woman mentioned in Para.3, her life _______.

    A. doesn't need improving

    B. couldn't be improved

    C. will be better some day

    D. Will be worse in the future

    2.What does the author think of the woman's life?

    A. positive B. satisfying

    C. colorful D. passive

    3.Which of the following statements is the author's opinion?

    A. Your temporary problem is not discouraging.

    B. Your luck can be changed by your hard work.

    C. You can only achieve success when God wills it.

    D. You should treat yourself in the way you treat friends.

    4.In Para.5, the author emphasized the importance of _______.

    A. positive action

    B. positive thinking

    C. hope for the best

    D. intention to succeed

    5.The text is mainly written to advise you to _______.
