Teens who have good, supportive relationships with their teachers enjoy better healthas adults, according to research published by an American research center.
“This research suggests that improving students' relationships with teachers could have positive and long-lasting effects beyond just academic success," said Jinho Kim, a professor atKoreaUniversityand author of the study."Itcould also bring about healthimplicationsin the long run.”
Previous research has suggested that teens' social relationships might be linked to health outcomes in adulthood. However, it is not clear whether the link between teen relationships and lifetime health is causal（因果的）-it could be that other factors, such as different family backgrounds, might contribute to both relationship problems in adolescence and to poor health in adulthood. Also, most research has focused on teens' relationships with their peers（同龄人）, rather than on their relationships with teachers.
To explore those questions further, Kim analyzed data on nearly 20,000 participants from the Add Health study, a national study in theU.S.that followed participants from seventh grade into early adulthood. The participant pool included more than 3,400 pairs of siblings（兄弟姐妹）. As teens, participants answered questions, like “How often have you had trouble getting along with other students and your teachers?" As adults, participants were asked about their physical and mental health.
Kim found that participants who had reported better relationships with both their peers and teachers in middle and high school also reported better physical and mental health in their mid-20s. However, when he controlled for family background by looking at pairs of siblings together, only the link between good teacher relationships and adult health remained significant.
The results suggest teacher relationships are more important than previously realized and that schools should invest in training teachers on how to build warm and supportive relationships with their students. "This is not something that most teachers receive much training in," Kim said, “but it should be.”
4. What does the underlined word “implications" in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A. Recipes.
B. Habits.
C. Benefits.
D. Risks.
5. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. Poor health in adolescence.
B. Limitations of the previous research.
C. Teens' relationships with their peers.
D. Factors affecting health in adulthood.
6. What does Kim's research show?
A. Good adult health depends on teens' good teachers.
B. Good family background promises long-term adult health.
C. Healthy peer relationships leads to students' academic success.
D. Positive student-teacher relationship helps students' adult health.
7. Where does this text probably come from?
A. A health magazine.
B. A medical report.
C. A term paper.
D. A family survey.

Sam, I say to myself as I start across the bridge, you must stop these thoughts and start thinking about what to do now that you have lost your falcon, Frightful.
Life, my friend Ban do once said, is meeting problems and solving them whether you are an amoeba or a space traveller. I have a problem. I have to provide my younger sister Alice and myself with meat. Fish, nuts, and vegetables are good and necessary, but they don't provide enough fuel for the hard physical work we do. Although we have venison now, I can't always count on getting it. So far this year, our venison has been only road kill from in front of Mrs Strawberry's farm.
I decide to take the longest way home, down the flood plain of the West Branch of Delaware to Spillkill, my own name for a fast stream that cascades down the south face of the mountain range I'm on. I need time to think. Perhaps Alice and I should be like the early Eskimos. We should walk, camp and hunt, and when the seasons change, walk on to new food sources. But I love my tree and my mountaintop.
Another solution would be to become farmers, like the people of the Iroquois Confederacy who once lived here. They settled in villages and planted corm and squash, bush beans and berries. We already grow groundnuts in the damp soil and squash in the poor land. But the Iroquois also hunted game. I can't do that anymore.
I'm back where I started from.
Slowly I climb the Spillkill. As I hop from rock to rock beneath shady basswoods and hemlocks, I hear the cry of the red-tailed hawk who nests on the mountain crest. I am reminded of Frightful and my heart aches. I can almost hear her call my name, Cree, Cree, Cree, Car-ree.
Maybe I can get her back if I beg the man who is in charge of the peregrines at the university. “But it's the law,” he would say. I could write to the president of the United States and ask him to make an exception of Alice and me. That won't work. The president swore to uphold the Constitution and laws of the United States when he took office.
I climb on. I must stop thinking about the impossible and solve the problem of what to do now. I must find a new way to provide for us. Frightful is going to be in good hands at the university, and she will have young.
I smile at the thought of little Frightfuls and lift my reluctant feet.
When I am far above the river, I take off my clothes and moccasins and bathe in a deep, clear pool until I am refreshed and thinking more clearly. Climbing up the bank, I dress and sit down. I breathe deeply of the mountain air and try to solve my problem more realistically.
8. What does this excerpt main describe?
A. Delicate mental activities.
B. Unique story environment.
C. Everchanging story events.
D. Complicated character relationship.
9. What is Sam's first worry?
A. How to get back quickly
B. How to get enough venison.
C. How to ensure the safety of Frightful.
D. How to provide meat for Alice and himself.
10. What do we know about Frightful?
A. He left Sam and Alice due to lack of food.
B. He helped Sam hunt before being taken away.
C. He is living with the red-tailed hawk happily.
D. He has given birth to babies in the university.
11. Which of the following can best describe Sam?
A. Humorous.
B. Aggressive.
C. Responsible.
D. Unrealistic.
D
It was very cold and I had been watching a homeless man make himself comfortable in a “shelter” on the river bank. His “shelter” was a tarpaulin (油布)tied to rocks to keep the wind from blowing it away. He had been living there for over a month. I never saw him with warm clothing or food. I knew what I wanted to do.
When I told my parents what I wanted to do they werealarmed. They said I could be putting myself at risk, taking a box to a homeless person at night! But I knew, in my deep heart, that I would be safe.
I got a box. My parents watched as I added warm gloves, a heavy blanket ... into the box until it was full! Then, I put a Christmas card on top. It said, “Even though we hardly know each other, I want to wish you a Merry Christmas!” I put ten one-dollar bills inside it as well.
My father insisted he went there with me as it was 10 pm on Christmas Eve. I said he could drive me but he had to stay in the car. He agreed.
I took the box and walked towards his “house”. I called, “Sir, I have a Christmas box for you!”
“Go away!” he shouted.
“Sir,” I repeated.
“Go away!” he shouted.
“Why?” I asked him.
He walked over and I expected to see an angry face. Instead I saw two of the most beautiful, gentle, blue eyes I have ever seen.
“Merry Christmas!” I said.
“Why are you doing this?” he asked.
“Because you matter to me,” I said. With that I gave him the box.
Tears came to his eyes and he thanked me. I got back to the car and watched him carry the box like it was filled with gold. I didn’t want to embarrass (使困窘) him by watching him any more so Dad and I left.
12. The underlined word “alarmed” can best be replaced by _____.
A. pleased
B. worried
C. disappointed
D. surprised

A. Because he wanted to prove he was brave.
B. Because he believed the homeless man was bad.
C. Because he wanted to protect his father from being hurt.
D. Because he didn’t want the homeless man to feel bad.
14. When the homeless man saw the author first, he was _____.
A. quite angry
B. very excited
C. quite puzzled
D. very curious
15. The author’s purpose in writing the text is to tell readers that _____.

Even when you have learned enough about your true nature, you then need to do something about it.___19___Meanwhile, the reality can be really discouraging: you do much hard work but the results are never the sort of ideal change you’re looking for.
No matter how difficult it is, you still need to find your own way to change.

Jackson did not feel good so he stayed home from school today. He did not like to be sick. It was no fun at all.
He got out of his bed and walked into his brother's bedroom. Carter loved cars. He had them all over his room. One sat on his desk in many pieces. Carter loved putting model cars together. Jackson touched one of the black tires. He hoped Carter was home. Carter liked to talk about the model cars as he was putting them together.
Jackson left Carter's room and walked down the hall to the room his twin sisters shared. Ella liked wearing pretty clothes and Madison liked riding her horse. Ella's side of the room was nice and neat. Madison's side was a mess. Ella decorated the wall behind her bed with pictures of girls in fancy clothes. A big poster of a horse was on the wall behind Madison,s bed. Jackson turned and walked back out of the room, tripping over Madison,s cowboy boots as he did. He didn't fall down, but it was close.
As he stood there, trying to remember what it was called, he realized all of his brother's and sisters' rooms looked like the things they loved. Carter had cars in his room; Ella loved fashion and Madison horses. Jackson wondered what his room said about him. He walked back down the hall and stood in the doorway of his room.
His bed was a mess. But he just got out of it, so that was normal. There was a racetrack on his floor, a barn he made out of toy logs, a plastic hat that was part of a magic trick set he got for his birthday, and a couple of plastic dinosaurs lying on their sides. His walls were bare. He felt a little down.
