Cliques are small,particular groups of friends who share common characteristics and common interests(music,dress,sports,etc.).Each member is either directly or indirectly connected to other members.Cliques usually refer to groups of girls; however boys are also involved in cliques.There are  usually hierarchies(等级)of cliques among teens,from the populars to the losers,and there are often many  cliques in schools.

While,cliques can be opposed to other kids and other cliques.In some cases cliques members can become harmful to outsiders by putting them down using teasing,backstabbing,and even violence.Although girls are socialized to suppress physical displays of violence,it can take the form of intimidating (恐吓人的)behavior.Cliques can pollute individuality and prevent members from mixing with members of other groups.They usually require some degree of agreement in appearance,attitude,or behavior.They can drive away members for no apparent reason,and they can pressure kids into group activities in order to
fit in,creating interpersonal cliques and violence.

分析 一些孩子在年龄较小的时候喜欢朋友.在9岁或10岁时,孩子形成了差异,他们开始形成团体.当10岁至12岁时,因为他们与父母分开,对同伴的认同可能扩大,并且团体可能形成和变化频繁.在初中和高中,归属问题变得更加特别和突出.
团体是具有共同的特点和共同的兴趣(音乐,衣服,运动等)的小的、特定的朋友群体.每个成员直接或间接与其他成员有联系.团体通常指的是女孩群体,但男孩也参与团体.在青少年之间通常存在团体等级,从流行团体到失败团体,在学校中经常有许多团体.
正常青少年的发展往往围绕着团体,有加入团体的、想要加入团体的、或者离开团体的.团体可以对自我价值产生强烈的积极影响.团体提供社交场合,帮助孩子培养归属感支持和保护.团体也可通过让孩子们感到需要来改善自尊,并使团队成员能够培养身份感,并处理周围的社交活动.
然而,团体可以反对其他孩子和其他团体.在某些情况下,团体成员可以通过使用戏弄、背刺甚至暴力羞辱他人以对外人造成伤害.虽然女孩被社会化压制暴力的身体表现,它可以采取恐吓人的行为的形式.团体可以污染个体,防止成员与其他团体的成员混合.他们通常需要在外表,态度或行为上有一定程度的一致性.他们可以没有明确理由地驱逐成员,他们可以强迫孩子参加团体活动,以便适应,创造人际关系和暴力.

58.C.细节理解题.根据文中第三段"They…and help kids develop a sense of belonging  support and protection"可知团体可让孩子培养归属感和保护,故选C.
59.A.词义辨析题.根据第四段"Although girls are socialized to suppress physical displays of violence,it can take the form of intimidating (恐吓人的)behavior"可知他们只能采取恐吓人的行为,说明暴力行为是被禁止、不许的,suppress为压制,禁止之意,故选A.prevent阻止.B.permit允许,C.develop培养,发展,D.discover发现.
60.D.主旨大意题.根据本文介绍了团体如何形成和它对孩子们的正面和负面影响,故选D.

20.These days a green building means more than just the color of the paint.Green building can also refer to environmentally friendly houses,factories,and offices.
Green building means"reducing the impact (影响) of  the building  on the land",Taryn Holowka of the U.S.Green Building Council in Washington D.C.said.
According to Holowka,the building accounts for 65percent of total U.S.electricity use.
But green building can reduce energy and water use.Also,the buildings are often located near public transportation such as buses and subways,so that people can drive their cars less.That could be good for the environment,because cars use lots of gas and give off pollution.Green buildings are often built on developed land,so that the buildings don't destroy forests.
Marty Dettling is project manger for a building that put these ideas into action.The Solaire has been called the country's first green high-rise building.According to Dettling,"We've reduced our energy use by one-third and our water by 50percent."
The Solaire cuts energy in past by using solar power."On the face of the building we have solar panels(板) which change the sun's energy into electricity,"Dettling explained.The Solaire also has lights that automatically turn off when people leave the room.In addition,the building has lots of windows,allowing people to use the sun for light during the day.The Solaire cuts water reusing it.
Not everyone is eager to move into a green building,however.Some people think that things like solar panels cost more money than more traditional energy sources.Anyhow,Holowka said,"It's going to be big."

72.In the second paragraph,the underlined words"the building"most probably refer toA.
A.an ordinary building              B.an energy-saving building
C.a green-colored building          D.a building in Washington D.C.
73.A green building is often built on an area of landC.
A.which has thick forests around
B.where people of high income live
C.which has already been for buildings
D.where traveling around by car is most convenient
74.When saying"It's going to be big",Holowka means that green buildingsB.
A.will be more comfortable
B.will become popular in future
C.will be more environmentally friendly
D.will take the place of traditional building
75.What is the main subject discussed in the text?A
A.Green buildings help save environment.
B.The Solaire serves as a model of high building.
C.Energy shortage calls for buildings of new design.
D.Dettling designed the first green building in the U.S.

17.How did the sea horse get its name?It's not hard to guess.The top half of this fish looks like a small horse.But looking at the sea horse's tail,you might think"sea monkey"is a better name.Then there's the sea horse's pouch."Sea kangaroo"might also be a good name for this fish.
Sea horses live in warm ocean waters all over the world.They keep safe from other fish by hiding in plants and grasses that grow under the sea.They can also change color to match their surroundings.A sea horse remains in one place for hours at a time by winding its tail around a plant.It feeds on live food,such as small shrimps.For a fish that doesn't move around much,the sea horse eats a lot-in just one day,a sea horse can eat 3,000shrimps!
A sea horse keeps the same mate for its whole life,and it's the male sea horse that gives birth to baby sea horses.How does this happen?Baby sea horses start out as eggs,which come from the female's body.The male carries the eggs in its pouch for about three weeks until they hatch.Soon after the babies are born,the female gives her mate a new set of eggs.
Sadly,the number of sea horses is becoming smaller.Why is this happening?Some places where sea horses once lived have been filled in to make new land.Also,many sea horses are caught and sold as aquarium fish (观赏鱼).This really is not a good idea because most sea horses don't live long in aquariums.The best place for a sea horse is the ocean.

71.The sea horse got its name because of itsA.

C.She carries them around.

B.Their homes are being destroyed.
C.They are killed by people for food.
D.Their food is becoming less and less.

4.After commuting,cooking dinner and doing household chores,the average parent has just 30minutes to devote to their children in the evenings,according to a new study.One in four working parents worry that half an hour simply isn't enough,while almost half fret that they aren't a good enough parent during the week.
However,parenting experts believe just 12minutes a day may be enough for mothers and fathers to fully   reconnect with their child-as long as they ask the right questions.Child psychologist Dr Claire Halsey said asking a series of open-ended questions can help improve parents'relationship with their children.
Among the questions recommended in the research are:"How many times have you smiled today-what made you laugh?";"Can you act out what you did at breaktime?";"Who is taller-mummy or your teacher?"and"What are the names of the toys you played with today?"Parents of older children are advised to start up a conversation with:"I've got a great story for you but I want one in return…you first!"or"Tell me some school gossip …I'm all ears!"
Dr Halsey,working with the makers of Ribena Plus,who commissioned the research,said:"There is no one as tough on their own parenting skills as a parent-but this study shows there is no need for parents to be so harsh.It's hard for working parents to juggle all their responsibilities and it can feel like guilt is simply a parent's lot-but it's absolutely not.By using clever tactics such as a little preparation alongside use of open-ended questions-such as‘Tell me what the best bit about your day was?'-parents can reduce the time worrying about chores and work and spend more time learning about their children's day."

36.The underlined word reconnect in Paragraph 2is closest in meaning toB.
A.discuss      B.communicate      C.understand       D.combine
37.According to Paragraph 1,almost half of the working parentsD.
A.can spare only about half an hour to be with their kids every day
B.spend their daytime commuting,cooking dinner and doing household chores
C.worry that half an hour's stay with their kids is far from enough
D.fear that they aren't a good enough parent during the week
38.What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3mean?C
A.I will be glad to listen.
B.I will be very interested.
C.I will listen carefully.

39.Which of the following open-ended questions is for a three-year-old child?D
A.Where are you off to with your friends this weekend?
B.Who played the best in your football match today?
C.What science project are you doing at the moment and can I help with it?
D.What are the names of the toys you played with today?
40.What does Dr Halsey intend to tell us in this passage?B
A.It is not necessary for parents to spend too much time with their children.
B.It is natural that working parents do not afford more time to reconnect with kids.
C.It is important that working parents learn more parenting skills.
D.It is clever that parents ask their kids questions instead of doing chores.

1.I travel a lot,and I find out different"styles"of directions every time 1 ask"How can I get to the post office?"
Foreign tourists are often confused in Japan because most streets there don't have names; in Japan,people use landmarks in their directions instead of street names.For example,the Japanese will say to travelers,"Go straight down to the corner.Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market.The post office is across from the bus stop."
In the countryside of the American Midwest,there are not usually many landmarks.There are no mountains,so the land is very flat; in many places there are no towns or buildings within miles.Inste ad of landmarks,people will tell you directions and distances.In Kansas or Iowa,for example,people will say,"Go north two miles.Turn east,and then go another mile."
People in Los Angeles,California,have no idea of distance on the map; they measure distance in time,not miles."How far away is the post office?"you ask."Oh,"they answer,"it's about five minutes from here."You say,"Yes,but how many miles away is it?"They don't know.
It's true that a person doesn't know the answer to your question sometimes.What happens in such a situation?A New Yorker might say,‘Sorry,I have no idea."But in Yucatan,Mexico,no one answers"I don't know."People in Yucatan believe that"I don't know"is impolite,They usually give an answer,often a wrong one.A tourist can get very,very lost in Yucatan!

21.When a tourist asks the Japanese the way to a certain place they usuallyD
A.descr ibe the place carefully      B.refer to recognizable buildings and places
C.show him a map of the place        D.tell him the names of the streets       
22.Which is the place where people measure distance in time?B
A.New York.  B.Kansas.  C.Los Angeles.  D.Iowa.
23.People in Yucatan may give a tourist a wrong answerC
A.so as to be polite    B.as a test        C.for fun         D.in order to save time
24.What can we infer from the text?A
A.It's useful for travelers to know how to ask the way properly.
B.People have similar understandings of politeness.
C.It's important for tra velers to understand cultural differences.
D.New Yorkers are generally friendly to visitors.
