Mark was a great kid from a tough neighBorhood. Crime, drugs, fighting and poverty — you name the proBlem and his neighBorhood had it. A scholarship fund (奖学金基金) provided his tuition (学费) for his high school, where he was a great BaseBall player.
Mark struggled in the classroom, though.He was Bright, just Behind, due to a more than difficult home environment. But there were proBlems of finding the time for all he needed to do.After-school tutoring (指导) seemed impossiBle Because of BaseBall practice.Some suggested Mark give up sports and concentrate on “schooling”．But, in reality, if he was going to attend college he would need his sports; so to miss practice and then perform any less than at his Best on the field was not wise.
A fellow teacher, Mrs Jones, offered to teach Mark maths at her home.I asked Mark to come to my house for other areas of work.No one paid us. Mrs Jones summed it up this way: “Payday doesn't always come on Mondays.”
When we were not working with Mark to improve his skills for ACT, the coach and Mark's dad took him to various colleges to talk with Both BaseBall and footBall program coaches. He settled_on the college that offered him scholarships to play Both sports. But he needed a good ACT score.
It takes months to receive the results of college entrance exams.One afternoon after school, while I was grading papers in my room, there was a noise outside the door.
Mark came in, lifted me out of the seat Behind my desk, spun (快速旋转) me around in the air, and yelled over and over: “I'm going to college! I'm going to college！Thank you! Now, where's Mrs Jones？I've got to tell her too！”
Until that moment, I had never quite understood what the expression “Payday doesn't always come on Mondays” meant.

A．He spent most of his spare time practicing BaseBall.
B．His family couldn't afford any tutoring for him.
C．His parents didn't care aBout his study.
D．He was often involved in the crime in his neighBorhood.

A．No teachers offered to tutor Mark free of charge.
B．Theft wasn't a proBlem in Mark's neighBorhood.

Posting selfies (自拍) online can Be a fun way to share your life with your friends and family. But some people take their photos a Bit too seriously and spend a lot of time editing them. This not only presents a “fake” image (形象) of those people to the world, But can even make people feel worse aBout themselves.
Researchers in Australia did a study in which 130 women aged 18 to 30 were asked to look at a series of photos. Some of the photos showed thin women, while others showed average-sized women. Afterwards, the women were asked to take a selfie with an iPad and were then given 10 minutes to edit the selfie.
The women were also asked aBout their personal dissatisfaction with their Bodies and faces several times during the experiment — Before and after viewing their images, and after editing their selfies.
The researchers' findings showed that the longer the women took to edit and post their selfies, the more likely they were to have negative (消极的) feelings aBout their own appearance. In addition, the more heavily edited the photos were, the more likely it was that the women were dissatisfied with their facial appearance.
People are often pressured to present the Best version (版本) of themselves. This in turn creates greater stress as they edit their photos to “perfection”， while they themselves don't actually change, according to Professor Marika Tiggemann, one of the researchers. The findings show the difficulties people face when using social media.
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了过度编辑自拍照会给自己带来压力，而这种压力主要来自现实生活中的不自信。
8．Why do some people spend plenty of time editing their photos
A．They want to show people their fake image.
B．They want to make people feel worse aBout them.
C．They want to kill time.
D．They take their photos too seriously.
解析：选D 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“But some people take their photos a Bit too seriously and spend a lot of time editing them.”可知，有些人之所以花费了大量时间来编辑照片，是因为他们太重视他们的照片了。
9．Which things were the women asked to do in the study
①To look at given photos
②To make their selfies
③To comment on given photos
④To express their attitudes
⑤To edit their selfies
A．①②③④ B．①②④⑤
C．①②③⑤ D．②③④⑤
解析：选B 细节理解题。根据第二、三段内容可知，研究中要求130位女士观看一些照片，然后自拍并对自己的照片进行编辑和评价，并未要求对提供的照片进行评价，可排除③。故选B项。
10．Which one of the following is NOT the research's findings
A．The longer one edits his selfies，the more likely he feels negative with his appearance.
B．The more heavily edited one's selfies are，the more likely one is dissatisfied with his face.
C．When people post online their Best selfies, their stress may decrease.
D．Posting over-edited selfies online can make people feel worse aBout themselves.
解析：选C 细节理解题。 根据最后一段中的“This in turn creates greater stress as they edit their photos to ‘perfection’” 可推断出，当人们在网上发布他们最好的自拍时，他们的压力会增加，而不是减少。C项与研究发现不符。
11．What do Professor Marika Tiggemann's words mean in the last paragraph
A．One's stress with over-edited selfies actually results from pressure.
B．One's stress with over-edited selfies is related to his appearance change.
C．One's stress can lead to his photos' perfection.
D．One can present his Best version of himself under no pressure.
解析：选A 推理判断题。分析最后一段中Professor Marika Tiggemann的话可知，人们之所以会过度编辑自拍照是源于生活中的压力，他们对自己的外貌、身材或其他方面感到不满意。
D
Parents take note! You might want to cut down on your kid's screen time. According to a new study, children who spend a lot of time in front of the screens are at a higher risk of gaining weight and aBdominal (腹部的) oBesity, regardless of how much they exercise. The increase in childhood oBesity is one of the largest health proBlems gloBally.
The study, carried out at the Folkh lsan Research Centre, focused on links Between screen time and Being overweight By studying the Finnish Health in Teens data of more than 10,000 children from across Finland. The studied children were Between 9 and 12 years of age.
The suBjects reported the time spent watching television programs and films on screens and on the long-time computer use outside school hours. The children were measured for height and weight.
The results of the study showed that heavy screen time takes up children's much free time and is related to Both overweight and aBdominal oBesity, and even influences their performance at school. But there was no difference in the findings By age, gender, native languages, sleep time and exercise during free time. Watching a lot of television was also related to overweight and oBesity in children who exercised the most.
“It must Be noted that this study does not show anything aBout direct cause and effect. It may Be that overweight children spend more time in front of screens, or that heavy screen time may result in overweight，” said researcher Elina EngBerg from the University of Helsinki.
“Neither did the study measure the intensity of exercise. The children were only asked aBout the amount of time they spent exercising in their free time. Further research on the comBined effect of the screen time，the physical activity and the diet on children's weight is needed，” Elina EngBerg added.
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了研究发现过多的荧屏时间会导致儿童肥胖。

B．The importance of physical activities.
C．How to advise kids to spend their free time.
D．Whether other things affect kids' overweight.

We sat under the apple tree, and he related the following story.“Did you notice how that rooster and hens Behaved when I came in Totally different than when you first came in.” I shouted，“The rooster and hens seemed to come at me！”
My grandfather then said，“That's a new rooster the neighBor gave me. All your life you are going to come across people who will act like that rooster and hens. Only in different ways! It's natural for that rooster to protect this house and his hens. The rooster is the leader and the hens are followers. Same with people! It doesn't matter whether they are men or women. There will always Be people who will try to lead your life and if you let them, you will Become like the hens.”
“But to Be the leader, you have to first Be aBle to lead your own life and Be the rooster of your actions. You can Be like the rooster leading the hens. Most of us in life are followers, like the hens and some stay hidden in their own chicken house, like you did.”

Mark was a great kid from a tough neighBorhood. Crime, drugs, fighting and poverty — you name the proBlem and his neighBorhood had it. A scholarship fund (奖学金基金) provided his tuition (学费) for his high school, where he was a great BaseBall player.
Mark struggled in the classroom, though.He was Bright, just Behind, due to a more than difficult home environment. But there were proBlems of finding the time for all he needed to do.After-school tutoring (指导) seemed impossiBle Because of BaseBall practice.Some suggested Mark give up sports and concentrate on “schooling”．But, in reality, if he was going to attend college he would need his sports; so to miss practice and then perform any less than at his Best on the field was not wise.
A fellow teacher, Mrs Jones, offered to teach Mark maths at her home.I asked Mark to come to my house for other areas of work.No one paid us. Mrs Jones summed it up this way: “Payday doesn't always come on Mondays.”
When we were not working with Mark to improve his skills for ACT, the coach and Mark's dad took him to various colleges to talk with Both BaseBall and footBall program coaches. He settled_on the college that offered him scholarships to play Both sports. But he needed a good ACT score.
It takes months to receive the results of college entrance exams.One afternoon after school, while I was grading papers in my room, there was a noise outside the door.
Mark came in, lifted me out of the seat Behind my desk, spun (快速旋转) me around in the air, and yelled over and over: “I'm going to college! I'm going to college！Thank you! Now, where's Mrs Jones？I've got to tell her too！”
Until that moment, I had never quite understood what the expression “Payday doesn't always come on Mondays” meant.

Posting selfies (自拍) online can Be a fun way to share your life with your friends and family. But some people take their photos a Bit too seriously and spend a lot of time editing them. This not only presents a “fake” image (形象) of those people to the world, But can even make people feel worse aBout themselves.
Researchers in Australia did a study in which 130 women aged 18 to 30 were asked to look at a series of photos. Some of the photos showed thin women, while others showed average-sized women. Afterwards, the women were asked to take a selfie with an iPad and were then given 10 minutes to edit the selfie.
The women were also asked aBout their personal dissatisfaction with their Bodies and faces several times during the experiment — Before and after viewing their images, and after editing their selfies.
The researchers' findings showed that the longer the women took to edit and post their selfies, the more likely they were to have negative (消极的) feelings aBout their own appearance. In addition, the more heavily edited the photos were, the more likely it was that the women were dissatisfied with their facial appearance.
People are often pressured to present the Best version (版本) of themselves. This in turn creates greater stress as they edit their photos to “perfection”， while they themselves don't actually change, according to Professor Marika Tiggemann, one of the researchers. The findings show the difficulties people face when using social media.

C．①②③⑤ D．②③④⑤
10．Which one of the following is NOT the research's findings
A．The longer one edits his selfies，the more likely he feels negative with his appearance.
B．The more heavily edited one's selfies are，the more likely one is dissatisfied with his face.
C．When people post online their Best selfies, their stress may decrease.
D．Posting over-edited selfies online can make people feel worse aBout themselves.
11．What do Professor Marika Tiggemann's words mean in the last paragraph
A．One's stress with over-edited selfies actually results from pressure.
B．One's stress with over-edited selfies is related to his appearance change.
C．One's stress can lead to his photos' perfection.
D．One can present his Best version of himself under no pressure.

Parents take note! You might want to cut down on your kid's screen time. According to a new study, children who spend a lot of time in front of the screens are at a higher risk of gaining weight and aBdominal (腹部的) oBesity, regardless of how much they exercise. The increase in childhood oBesity is one of the largest health proBlems gloBally.
The study, carried out at the Folkh lsan Research Centre, focused on links Between screen time and Being overweight By studying the Finnish Health in Teens data of more than 10,000 children from across Finland. The studied children were Between 9 and 12 years of age.
The suBjects reported the time spent watching television programs and films on screens and on the long-time computer use outside school hours. The children were measured for height and weight.
The results of the study showed that heavy screen time takes up children's much free time and is related to Both overweight and aBdominal oBesity, and even influences their performance at school. But there was no difference in the findings By age, gender, native languages, sleep time and exercise during free time. Watching a lot of television was also related to overweight and oBesity in children who exercised the most.
“It must Be noted that this study does not show anything aBout direct cause and effect. It may Be that overweight children spend more time in front of screens, or that heavy screen time may result in overweight，” said researcher Elina EngBerg from the University of Helsinki.
“Neither did the study measure the intensity of exercise. The children were only asked aBout the amount of time they spent exercising in their free time. Further research on the comBined effect of the screen time，the physical activity and the diet on children's weight is needed，” Elina EngBerg added.
12．What can we infer from the results of the study
A．The less sleep time kids get, the fatter they Become.
B．Exercise has nothing to do with overweight.
C．Kids' watching too much TV leads to less exercise.
D．Heavy screen time makes kids aBsent from school.
13．What will Elina focus on in the future
A．Ways of kids' exercise.
B．The importance of physical activities.
C．How to advise kids to spend their free time.
D．Whether other things affect kids' overweight.
14．The passage is intended for________.
A．parents B．children
C．schools D．researchers
15．What's the main idea of the passage
A．Healthy diets help kids avoid overweight.
B．How to deal with kids' overweight.
C．Parents should keep their kids off TV.
