Why do people drink too much, eat too much, smoke cigarettes or take drugs? What's to blame for all the bad behavior? Most people would say that, while these self-destructive(自我毁灭的)acts can have many root causes, they all have one obvious thing in common: they are all examples of failures of self-control, lacking the will power to resist (抵抗) them. Accordjng to a recent study, however, if you really think about it, something about that simple answer doesn't quite make sense. In fact, it turns out that sometimes ifs having will power that really gets you into trouble.

Think back to the time you took your very first sip(啜饮) of beer. Disgusting, wasn't it? When my father gave me my first taste of beer as a teenager. I wondered why anyone would voluntarily drink it. And smoking? No one enjoys their first cigarette — it tastes awful. So even though smoking, and drinking alcohol or coffee, can become temptation (诱惑)you need will power to resist, they never, ever start out that way.

Just getting past those first horrible experiences actually requires a lot of self-control.

Ironically (讽刺的是), only those who can control themselves well, rather than give in to them, can ever come to someday develop a \"taste\" for Budweiser beer, Marlboro cigarettes, or dark-roasted Starbucks coffee. We do it for social acceptance. We force ourselves to consume alcohol, cigarettes, coffee and even illegal drugs, in order to seem experienced, grown-up, and cool.

These bad habits aren't self-control failures — far from it. They are voluntary choices, and they arc in fact self-control successes. Self-control is simply a tool to be put to sonic use. helpful or harmful. To live happy and productive lives, we need to develop not only our self-control, also the wisdom to make good decisions about when and where to apply it.

28. What do most people think causes bad behavior?

A. Being forced by others. B. Not having enough will power. C. Enjoying their first experiences. D. Following the examples of their friends.

29. The author mentions his experience in the third paragraph to prove . A. will power helps develop bad habits sometimes B. drinking beer is harmful to the health of teenagers C. self-control should be developed when one is young D. everyone can be challenged by different temptations 30. In the last paragraph, the author stresses that . A. without self-control, no one can succeed B. had habits don't always lead to bad

C. applying self-control correctly is important D. people can develop wisdom from bad behavior 31. What would be the best title for the passage? A. My First Sip of Beer B. Do You Have Will power? C. Will Power Benefits Us D. Dark Side of Self-control

Students who date(约会)in middle school have significantly worse study skills. They arc four limes more likely to drop out of school and report twice as much alcohol and tobacco use as their single classmates, according to new research from the University of Georgia.

\"Romantic relationships are a trademark of adolescence, but very few studies have examined how adolescents differ in the development of these relationships.\" said Pamela Orpinas, study author and professor in the College of Public Health and head of the Department of Health Promotion and Behavior.

Orpinas followed a group of 624 students over a seven-year period from 6th to 12th grade.

Each year, the group of students completed a survey indicating whether they had dated and reported the frequency of different behaviors, including the use of drugs and alcohol. Their teachers completed questionnaires about the students' academic(学术的) efforts. He found that some students never or hardly ever reported dating from middle to high school, and these students always had the best study skills according to their teachers. Other students dated infrequently in middle school but increased

the frequency of dating in high school.

\"At all points in time, teachers considered the students who reported the lowest frequency of dating as having the best study skills and the students with the highest dating as having the worst study skills,\" according to the journal article. Study skills refer to behaviors that lead to academic success such as doing work for extra credit (学分), being well organized, finishing homework, working hard and reading assigned chapters.

\"Dating a classmate may be as complicated as dating a co-worker.\" Orpinas said, \"when the couple break up, they have to continue to see each other in class and perhaps see the ex-partner dating someone else. It is reasonable to think this could be linked to depression and could divert(转移)attention from studying.\"

''Dating should not be considered a ceremony of growth in middle school.\" Orpinas concluded.

32. According to the passage, students who dale in middle school may . A. have poorer academic performances B. be more likely lo hurt others C. enjoy better school lives

D. be less likely to use alcohol and tobacco 33. When doing his study, Orpinas .

A. followed a group of students of 6th and 12th grade B. completed a survey and a report each year

C. found that the students' study skills have connection with their frequency of dating

D. completed questionnaires about the students' academic efforts 34. What can possibly happen to the school couples after they break up? A. They don't want to sec each other any longer B. They will think it's reasonable to get depressed C. They will miss their ex-partners sometimes D. Their attention to studying will be affected

35. Orpinas' attitude towards dating in middle school is

A. supportive B. negative C. positive D. unconcerne 第二节：七选五（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。 Evaluating Sources (来源)of 'health Information

Making good choices about your own health requires reasonable evaluation. A key first step in bettering your evaluation ability is to look carefully at your sources of healthy information. Reasonable evaluation includes knowing where and how to fins relevant information, how to separate fact from opinions, how to recognize poor reasoning, and how to analyze information and the reliability of sources. 36

Go to the original source. Media reports often simplify the results of medical research. Find out for yourself what a study really reported, and determine whether it was based on good science.

Think about the type of study. 37

Watch for misleading language. Some studies will find that a behaviour \"contributes to\" or is \"associated with'' an outcome; this does not mean that a certain course must lead to a certain result. 38 Carefully read or listen to information in order to fully understand it.

Use your sense. If a report seems too good to be true, probably it is. Be especially careful of information contained in advertisements. 39 Evaluate \"scientific\" statements carefully, and be aware of quackery(江湖骗术).

40 Friends and family members can be a great source of ideas and inspiration, but each of us needs to find a healthy lifestyle that works for us.

A. Make choice that arc right for you. B. The goal of an ad is to sell you something. C. Be sure to work through the critical questions. D. And examine the findings of the original research.

E. Distinguish between research reports and public health advice.

F. Be aware that information may also be incorrectly explained by an author's point of view.

G. The following suggestions can help you sort through the health information

you receive from common sources.

One of the boy carried her on the back, under the help of some others, to the clinic immediately. It turned out that her right leg was breaking and she had to stay in hospital. The following day, we went to visit her with flowers and fruit. Seeing her laying in bed with leg wrapped in bandages, we felt sorry for her and hoped that she would recover soon.
