(2018·南昌模拟)Next time you are blamed for bad behavior, mainly blame it on the whole apple, pear or any other uncut food that your parents packed in your lunch bo x.That’s because biting into anything that requires the use of the front teeth, is likely to cause rude behavior in kids! At least that’s the conclusion some researchers from Cornell University have made, after observing the behavior of 12 students at a summer camp.
The researchers began by dividing the students into two groups.On the first day, one group was given chicken on the bone.The other was provided with the same chicken cut into delicious, bite－size pieces so that the only way to eat it was with a fork.The following day, the food was exchanged, so that the first group received the small pieces and forks, while the second, enjoyed the chicken on the bone.Each day the camp counselors also gave the kids strict instructions to let them stay within a circle with a 9－foot radius.
The researcher recorded both the meal time and then asked behavioral experts to evaluate what happened.They agreed that the kids that were required to bite the food were twice as likely to show aggressive behavior and disobey the adults, as those that focused on eating their food with forks.Of course, the latter also showed some rude behavior.If that isn’t bad enough, the former group was also more likely to leave their special circle and even, stand and jump on the picnic tables!
This has made Mr.Wansink, who led the research and his team, conclude that for some reasons, kids that bite into their food are more likely to exhibit bad behavior than those forced to eat with forks.Therefore, he advises parents to cut up the food they serve to their kids to enjoy a peaceful meal!

(2018·江西赣中南五校联考)In its early history，Chicago had floods frequently，especially in the spring，making the streets so muddy that people，horses and carts got stuck.An old joke that was popular at the time went like this：A man is stuck up to his waist in a muddy Chicago street.Asked if he needs help，he replies，“No，thanks.I’ve got a good horse under me.”
The city planner decided to build an underground drainage(排水) system，but there simply wasn’t enough difference between the height of the ground level and the water level.The only two options were to lower the
Chicago River or raise the city.
An engineer named Ellis Chesbrough convinced the city that it had no choice but to build the pipes above ground and then cover them with dirt.This raised the level o f the city’s streets by as much as 12 feet.
This of course created a new problem：dirt practically buried the first floors of every building in Chicago.Building owners were faced with a choice：either change the first floors of their buildings into basements，and the second stories into mainfloors，or hoist(吊起) the entire buildings to meet the new street level.Small wood­frame buildings could be lifted fairly easily.But what about large，heavy structures like the Tremont Hotel, which was a six­story brick building?
That’s where George Pullman came in.He had developed some house­moving skills successfully.To lift a big structure like the Tremont Hotel，Pullman would place thousands of jackscrews(螺旋千斤顶) beneath the building’s foundation.One man was assigned to operate each section of roughly 10 jackscrews.At Pullman’s sign each man turned his jackscrews by the same amount at the same time，thereby raising the building slowly and evenly.Astonishingly，the Tremont Hotel stayed open during the entire operation，and many of its guests didn’t even notice anything was happening.Some people like to say that every problem has a solution. But in Chicago’s early history, every engineering solution seemed to create a new problem.Now that Chicago’s waste water was draining efficiently into the Chicago River，the city’s next step was to clean the polluted river.

(2018·四川绵阳诊断)Loneliness is like a disease, and what’s worse, it’s contagious. It can spread from one person to another, according to the recent researc h that stresses the power of one person’s emotions to affect even people he doesn’t know.
The new analysis, involving 4，793 people who were interviewed every two years between 2005 and 2015, showed that a friend of a lonely person was 52% more likely to develop feelings of loneliness by the time of the next interview.A friend of that person was 25% more likely, and a friend of a friend of a friend was 15% more likely.
“Loneliness is not just the property of an individual.It can be transmitted across people—even people you don’t have direct contact with，”said John T．Cacioppo, a psychologist of the University of Chicago who led the study published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology.
Loneliness has been linked to medical problems, including depression, sleep problems and generally poorer physical health.Identifying some of the causes could help reduce the emotion and improve health, experts said.
Although the study did not examine how loneliness spreads, Cacioppo said another research has provided clues.“Let’s say for whatever reason you get lonely.You then interact with other people in a more negative fashion.That puts them in a negative mood and makes them more likely to interact with other people in a negative fashion and they minimize their social ties and become lonely，”Cacioppo said.
According to Cacioppo, loneliness spread more easily among women than men, perhaps because women were more likely to express emotions.
Lonely people become less and less trusting others.This makes it more and more difficult for them to make friends—and more likely that society will reject them.Therefore, it is important to recognize and deal with loneliness. Cacioppo emphasizes people who have been pushed to the edges of society should receive help to repair their social networks.
【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文。

A．rely heavily on others
B．are more likely to trust others
C．are less likely to be rejected by friends
D．will probably be deserted by society
D解析：细节理解题。

根据最后一段的“more likely that society will reject them”可知，Cacioppo认为孤独的人可能会被社会抛弃，故选D。

14．The word “minimize”in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to “________”．
A．increase B．reduce
C．create D．keep
B解析：词义猜测题。

根据第五段内容可推知，孤独的人用一种消极的方式去和别人交往，这会减少他们的社会关系，让他们变得孤独，故选B。

A．Refuse the help given by others.
B．Admit and try to solve it.

设空处修饰形容词difficult，故填how。

I__am__Li__Hua,__your__student__in__Class__12. I am indeed very sorry that I can’t go to Yuelu Mountain with you next week.I feel uneasy about it and want to tell you what happened.
Just now, my cousin, Xiao Ming, who went to Australia for his further study last year, informed me that he would return next Saturday morning.He wanted me to pick him up at the airport.You know, we haven’t seen each other for nearly a year, so I can’t spare the time to go out with you.
I sincerely hope you can accept my apologies and understand my situation.I would appreciate your allowing me to make another date to go there and have fun together.
Yours，
Li__Hua。
