Compare the differences of four different exhibitionsBWe can have conflicts with our important persons like friends, relatives, workmates, etc. But the conflicts doesn’t necessarily mean that the relationship will be destroyed. In fact, sometimes conflict helps people to let out their silent feelings, allowing them to free their suppressed emotions. However, when in a conflict, we usually get angry and say or do things which aren’t linked to the problem at hand. Therefore, it is important that we should try to avoid conflicts through effective communication.In a heated argument, we usually say things that aren’t related to the real problem, and even use rude words to make sure we gain an advantage over the other person. Then the whole situation goes badly. So we should separate(隔离) the root cause of the problem and build our discussion around it. This ensures that there are no rude remarks and the situation moves in a positive direction.It’s easy for us to think we’re right and if something isn’t working out, it surely must be someone else’s fault. However, if you aim to solve a conflict, first of all, you should show some respect and allow the other party to express themselves. Using remarks like, “I understand your concern on this” or “I know you’re right at your end”,would make the other person feel more appreciated.Sometimes some people get too excited and may behave in the wrong way or say something others may not appreciate. This can cause a worse situation. Actually, they should control their emotions and keep calm. This has to be learned through self-control and observing behavior of other people.The tips mentioned above are useful for most situations. However, we don’t rule out the possibility that there are some people always want to create some sort of trouble for others. You can tell them from others, and putting in an effort to resolve a conflict with them may just not be a wise idea. The best way to deal with these people is to forget them. A famous saying can help you and that is: “You should never fight with a pig; you both get dirty and only the pig likes it.”24. What can we learn from Paragraph 1?A. Conflicts may help us deal with our emotions.B. Conflicts can improve our relations with others greatly.C. Effective communication can help us avoid conflicts undoubtedly.D. The closer two friends are, the more conflicts are between them.25. When making discussions to solve conflicts, we should .A. know others’ personal qualityB. know others’ ability of expressionC. avoid showing our disadvantagesD. avoid the root cause of the problem26. The author suggests that when people get too excited, they should .A. behave like other peopleB. control the situationC. learn to keep their headD. say something unconcerned27. In the author’s opinion, how should you deal with those who always want to create trouble for you?A. Fight with them.B. Ignore them.C. Have a talk with them.D. Give them something they like.CAnxiety has now surpassed depression as the most common mental health disease among college students, though depression, too, is on the rise. More than half of students visiting campus clinics cite anxiety as a health concern, according to a recent study of more than 100,000 students nationwide by the Center for Collegiate Mental Health at Penn State. Nearly one in six college students has been diagnosed with or treated for anxiety within the last 12 months, according to the annual national survey by the American College Health Association.The causes range widely, experts say, from mounting academic pressure at earlier ages to overprotective parents to engagement with social media. Anxiety has always played a role in the development of a student’s life, but now more students experience anxiety so acute that they are seeking professional help. Like many college clinics, the Center for Counseling and Psychological Services at the University of Central Florida (UCF)—one of the country’s largest and fastest-growing universities, has seen sharp increases in the number of clients: 15.2 percent over last year alone.Anxiety has become characteristic of the current generation of college students, said Dan Jones, the director of Counseling and Psychological Services at Appalachian State University in Boone, N. C. Because of increasingly pressures during high school, he and other experts say, students arrive at college preloaded with stress. Accustomed to extreme parental oversight, many seem unable to govern themselves. And with parents so accessible, students have had less incentive to develop life skills. “They can’t tolerate discomfort or having to struggle,” Dr Jones said.More often, anxiety is mild and temporary, the indication of a student under the control of a normal developmental issue-learning time management, for example, or how to handle rejection from a sorority. Mild anxiety is often treatable with early, modest interventions. But to care for rising numbers of severely troubledstudents, many counseling centers have moved to triage protocols (分诊措施). That means that students with less urgent needs may wait several weeks for first appointments.Like many college counseling centers, UCF has designed a variety of daily workshops and therapy groups that implicitly and explicitly address anxiety, depression and their triggers. Next fall the center will test a new app for treating anxiety with a seven-module cognitive behavioral program, accessible through a student’s phone and augmented with brief videoconferences with a therapist. It also offers semester-long, 90-minute weekly therapy groups, such as “Keeping Calm and in Control”, “Mindfulness for Depression” and “Building Social Confidence”—for students struggling with social anxiety.28. Which of the following contributes to anxiety according to the text?A. Protection from teachers.B. An app in students’ phones.C. Increasingly learning pressure.D. Management of time learning.29. What does the underlined word “incentive” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Prevention.B. Motivation.C. Acquisition.D. Direction.29. What’s the purpose of those therapy groups mentioned in the last paragraph?A. To help students suffering anxiety.B. To test what social anxiety is.C. To introduce the cognitive behavioral program of UCF.D. To emphasize the importance of calm and confidence.31. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A. Tips on dealing with anxietyB. Causes of anxiety and depressionC. Different mental diseases threaten college studentsD. College mental health centers overburdened with anxious studentsDThe more hours that young children spend in child care, the more likely they are to turn out aggressive and disobedient by the time they are in kindergarten, according to the largest study of child care and development ever conducted. Researchers said this correlation （相关性）held true regardless of whether the children came from rich or poor homes, were looked after by a relative or at a center, and whether they were girls or boys.What is uncertain, however, is whether the child care actually causes the problem or whether children likely to turn out aggressive happen to be those who spend more hours in child care. It also remains unclear whether reducing the amount of time in child care will reduce the risk that a child will turn into a mean person. What’s more, quality child care is associated with increased skills in intellectual ability such as language and memory, leading some academics to suggest that child care turns out children who are “smart and naughty”.The government-sponsored research, which has tracked more than 1,300 children at 10 sites across the country since 1991, is bound to cause the debate over child care again: How should people balance work and family? And how should parents, especially mothers. Resolve the demands that are placed on them to be both breadwinners and supermoms?That debate was already on display at a new briefing yesterday, where researchers themselves had different opinions about the data and its implications （含义）. “There is a constant relationship between time in care and problem behavior, especially those involving aggression and behavior,”said Jay Belsky of Birkbeck College in London. one of the lead investigators of the study who has previously annoyed women’s groups because of his criticisms of child care. “On behalf of fathers or mothers?”interrupted Sarah Friedman, a developmental psychologist at the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) and one of the other lead scientists on the study. “On behalf of parents and families,” responded Belsky.“NICHD is not willing to get into policy recommendations.”said Friedman, contradicting her colleague. “There are other possibilities that can be entertained. Yes it is a quick solution-more hours in child care is associated with more problems. The easy solution is to cut the number of hours but that may have implications for the family that may not be beneficial for the development of the children in terms of economics.” In an interview after the briefing, Friedman said that asking parents to work fewer hours and spend more time with their children usually meant a loss of family income, which adversely（不利地）affects children.Scientists said that the study was highly reliable. But the researchers said they had no idea whether the behavioral difficulties persisted as the children moved to higher grades.32. Children who spend more time in quality child care will .A. develop greater ability in languageB. be easy to manage and less naughtyC. possess great risk-taking spiritD. be greedy and mean to their classmates33. What is still unknown about higher level of aggressiveness in kindergarten children?A. Whether higher level of aggressiveness can be avoided with longer child care.B. Where longer child care equally affects children from different families.C. Whether aggressiveness is a direct result of longer child care.D. Whether longer child care improves intellectual ability in children.33. In the fifth paragraph the word “it” probably means .A. NICHD is unwilling to give parents recommendationsB. NICHD is willing to give policy advice concerning child careC. the number of hours in child care should be reduced significantlyD. parents should discipline the behavior of their children more strictly35. According to Friedman, cutting the number of hours in child care .A. may prevent families from having the necessary financial sourcesB. will make families unable to enjoy much of the social benefitsC. will result in subsequent behavioral difficulties in childrenD. should be accompanied with the improvement in the quality of child care第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
