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 persons overall health. When the researchers analyzed the data, they found a strong connection between a teens 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 ine 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 shouldnt 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。4Where can you probably read this passage?AScience fiction.BHealth column.CFashion magazine.DEntertainment 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。5We can learn from Allens study that_Amany other factors have a greater influence on adult health than teen friendshipsBmental health issues have nothing to do with adult health Cthe same 171 teens were interviewed each year from 13 to 27Dthe teens who couldnt express themselves grew up to be unhealthierD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。6According to what Allen said, we can know that_Ain order to do better at school, teens should not follow the crowdBthough its challenging for teens to deal with peer pressure, they should not give up Cteens will engage in smoking, drinking or using drugs when facing peer pressureDparents should understand their teens and stop them going with friendsB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 shouldnt 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。7What can be inferred from the passage?AThere is nothing bad for teens to follow the crowd.BClose friendships are the most important for peoples health.CTeen friendships may help teens bee healthier adults.DAdult 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。C(2018太原高三模拟)Dear Parents，Im delighted that you are considering The British International School for your childs education.

The first meaning of “ghost” was “the seat of life or intelligence”. And it still has that meaning in some expressions.However, today, the word “ghost” usually means the soul of a dead person. This meaning is based on the idea that a persons spirit and body are separate. The spirit can continue existing long after the body has died. During Halloween, kids dressed as ghosts are mon sights. The costume is very simple：just throw on a white cloth that covers you from head to foot. But do not expect to win any costume petitions! You would not have a ghost of a chance. People use this expression to mean that something is very unlikely to happen.The sight might even make you turn pale as a ghost. This is used when people lose color in their face. Sometimes this happens when a person is scared. But a bad cold or flu can also turn you as pale as a ghost.“Ghost” can also be a verb. In the 1880s the term “ghost” meant a person who works in secret for another person. Ghostwriters produce speeches for politicians. They also produce books for authors who want to tell their life stories but are not professional writers.And sometimes ghostwriters are involved in a series of books, like the childrens stories based on the teenage detective Nancy Drew. The series began in 1930. The author given credit was Carolyn Keene. But she was not even real! Ghostwriters did all the work.Another expression using “ghost” as a verb is simply to ghost. This does not mean to die. It means to leave a place or event without saying “goodbye” to anyone. You can ghost from your job. You can ghost from a party. Yon can even ghost from a relationship. This is when you stop municating with someone because you are simply no longer interested in them. But I will not ghost from Words and Their Stories. 【解题导语】本文主要对“ghost”一词进行了深入探索。12The basic meaning of the word “ghost” nowadays is _Athe secret of another personBthe spirit of a dead personCthe color of ones faceDthe origin of intelligenceB解析：细节理解题。根据文章第三段的第一句“However，today，the wordghostusually means the soul of a dead person”可知，ghost 现在的基本含义是“一个死人的灵魂”。13If someone says “you dont have a ghost of a chance to win the match”， he means_Awithout doubt you wont lose the match Bthe match is unlikely to happen Cits impossible for you to win the match Dyou are too scared to win the match C解析：细节理解题。根据第四段的最后一句“People use this expression to mean that something is very unlikely to happen”可知，题干中引号内的意思是“你不可能赢得比赛”，故选C。14What can be inferred about the word “ghost” according to the passage?AKids dressed in a white cloth like ghosts can win a costume petition.BA bad cold can turn people as pale as a ghost because they fear illness.CIt was Carolyn Keene who ghostwrote the childrens stories.DA person devoted to his job is unlikely to ghost from his job.D解析：推理判断题。根据倒数第二段的第三句“It means to leave a place or event without saying goodbye to anyone”并结合选项可知，一个热爱自己工作的人是不可能轻易离开自己的工作的，ghost的含义和引用的句子呼应，故选D。15This passage is likely to appear in_Aa radio programBa Halloween posterCa fashion magazineDa newspaper advertisementA解析：文章出处题。根据第一段“With Halloween just around the corner，today we will explore the world of ghosts in this program”可推知，本文选自一个电台的节目，故选A。 七选五(2018江西赣中五校高三联考)More and more people are working remotely.Here are some tips to keep in mind to stay focused on your work when working at home：Set and keep regular office hours.1_Then try your best to leave work at the“office” and turn your phone on silent and enjoy the rest of your day.Give yourself some time to recharge so you can be as productive as possible.Plan and structure your workdays.Structure your workdays to maximize(使最大化) efficiency.Take advantage of your bodys natural rhythms.2._If you know you focus best in the morning，resist the temptation to check email until 10 am.or later.Set aside a designated(指定的) work area.Try to work at the same spot every day.3._And make it a place you enjoy going to each day，an area where you can focus and do your best work.Take breaks.Schedule time for frequent breaks throughout the day.Rise from your desk，stretch or walk around the house or down the street.4._If you need social activities，go out to lunch with friends or clients.Avoid distractions(使人分心的事)One challenge of working at home is distraction.With no colleagues or partners nearby，its easy to bee distracted.Stay focused on work throughout the day to maintain consistent productivity.5._AIt could be a spare bedroom that youve turned into a home office.BPlan your work around your most productive hours.CDo your best to set work hours and stick to them.DTake a lunch break and enjoy a midday meal.EIt is more fortable to stay at home.FSome interruptions cant be avoided.GAvoid online distractions as well.【解题导语】本文主要介绍了五种在家工作时如何保持注意力集中的方法。1C解析：根据本段的小标题“Set and keep regular office hours”可知，此处与工作时间的设定有关，所以选C项。2B解析：根据本段的小标题“Plan and structure your workdays”可推知，此处与工作计划有关，并与本段第一句“Structure your workdays to maximize(使最大化) efficiency”呼应，所以选B项。3A解析：根据本段小标题“Set aside a designated(指定的) work area”可知，此处表示家庭办公区的设定和安排，所以选A项。4D解析：根据本段第一句“Schedule time for frequent breaks throughout the day”并结合小标题“Take breaks”可推知，工作期间适当休息一下有助于集中注意力，所以选D项。5G解析：根据本段小标题“Avoid distractions(使人分心的事)”可推知，网上使人分心的内容也是集中注意力所需要避免的，所以选G项。
