Being “Cool” in Middle School

A new study shows that gentle and quiet kids in middle school will grow up to rule. 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.

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 of inns 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.

1. Before 1765, travelers could have meals at a(n) .

A．bar B．inn

C．restaurant D．centeen

【答案】B

that. The countryside was full of inns that would serve food.”可知答案为 B。

1. The first “restaurant” only served . A．soups

B．desserts

D．fruits

【答案】A

【解析】有第二段最后一句 But there was nothing that could be called a “restaurant”.和第三段 A Frenchman changed that. In 1765, he opened a place in Paris that sold

soups.表明一位法国人开了第一间餐馆买汤。答案为 A。

1. The word “restorative” (Line 3, Para.3) most probably means . A．having a special flavor
2. making you happier
3. having a pleasant smell
4. making you heathier

【答案】D

【解析】restorative 表示滋补的，可恢复健康的。若不知其意，由 Soups were considered “restorative”, so he called them “restaurants”. Finally, people started buying his soups even when not ill.这一句中最后“即使当没有生病的时候”也可以说明当时汤被认为是健康的， 选 D。

1. The restaurant concept started in . A．America
2. Britain C．Germany D．France

How to Protect the Art of Public Speaking

If you want to become the type of speaker you’ve always wanted to be, read the following suggestions.

• 1. You 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.

can lack enthusiasm and naturalness. Know your key talking points, supporting details and ways to move from one point to the next.

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.

二、阅读选择（第 11～15 题，每题 2 分，共 10 分。阅读下面短文，请从短文后所给各题的

4 个选项中选出 1 个最佳选项。）

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 were no menus anywhere.

There were places where travelers could eat centuries before that.The countryside was full of inns 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 “ restaurants ” 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.

How to Perfect the Art of Public Speaking

If 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.

③ Positive 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.

④ Find 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.

Remaining Active

Our 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.But if you are very active,your body will get used to the hard work,and the work will become easier for you to do.

Physical activity can help people remain active and stay healthy. 27 It also helps people sleep better.This is why active students don’t complain about being tired.They have a good

night’s sleep and have the energy to study hard and have fun every day.

Physical activity also makes people look and feel good.Activity burns more calories (卡路里) than just sitting. 28 In addition,regular exercise can make your muscles and bones stronger.

There are many factors to look at when you select a new physical activity.The most important is to choose something you enjoy.If you like jumping rope,that is the activity you should do.

29 In fact,two days of basketball,three days of swimming,and two days of bicycling can be more fun than jogging every day.

30 Some skills will improve with practice while others may always be difficult for you.If you enjoy an activity,feel free to do it.No one cares whether you can do it well or not,and you don’t need to care about it either.

Whatever activity you choose,remain active.It can make you physically fit and healthy for

life.
