In Africaj wild baboons(狒狒) like banding together to find food and protect each other. They may not be the smartest species,but like all animals,survival instincts are programmed into their DNA. They know that being together makes them safer.
Now think about your school. Sure,no one is trying to eat you alive,but you too are a social animal. And you’re one who has been thrown into a fierce environment. From day one,you sense that there’s safety in numbers. And once you follow that animal instinct to form packs,you feel more secure. “When I first walked into -my new high school last year,I was so nervous,”says Mike,rarJjTBliS=f 15,a high school student in New York City.“Everyone sat and walked together,in twos or threes — sometimes as a ‘group’ of five or more people. I didn’ t understand how I would ever belong.
Mike isn’t alone. In a survey,63 percent of teens told us they feel pressure to fit in or be popular,and 91 percent said their schools are divided into groups.
It is believed that to be popular is to be liked. But all popular people aren’t necessarily liked. They just make rules. Popular groups aren’t the only ones making rules. Zoe,a freshman from New York,says that even her close crew,which calls itself the “booknerds” (书呆子) ,” has unspoken guidelines. When Zoe wears makeup or a dress,her friends act like she's betrayed them: “They’ 11 say ,‘ Oh,she's painting her nails. She's a popular girl now., They’ re joking,but they’re not,if you know what I mean. It makes me upset."
“Because of the way the teen brain works,differences are seen as threatening,” says researcher Alexandra Robbins. “But usually these differences are things that make a person successful in adulthood."
Take,for example,Adam Levine of the band Maroon 5. In high school,he was a “nerdy,awkward kid crazy about music.w Now he's successful and famous. Then there,s Taylor Swift: Instead of trying to fit in with the cool kids who rejected her,she put her energy into songwriting.
25. When Mike first came to his high school,he.
A. was excited to make new friends
B. was proud of his new pretty school
C. was pretty nervous about his coming exams
D. was worried about finding new companions
26. Which of the following would the author most probably agree with?
A. Most of us like popular people.
B. Only popular groups make rules.
C. Being popular is important to students.
D. There are always some rules in a group.
27. Seeing Zoe wearing makeup or a dress,her friends.
A. praise her B. appear unhappy
C. are proud of her D. are envious of her
28. Which of the following is TRUE about Taylor Swift as a student?
A. She was very popular.
B. She had many friends.
C. She was devoted to her hobby.
D. She was one of the coolest kids.

Mind control Imagine looking at something and being able to move it just by using your brain!That is exactly what the new technology called BrainGate can do 一 with the help of a robotic arm,anyway.
BrainGate is. the idea of Professor John Donoghue and his team of researchers at the Brown Institute for Brain Science,USA. BrainGate is attached directly to the brain. First of all,gold wires are put into the part of the brain that controls movement. These are then connected to a small computer chip(芯片) . When the person thinks about different movements,this creates electrical signals,which are picked up by the chip. After this,the signals that are created by the brain are sent back to a computer,which changes the signals into movements. Finally,the computer uses the robotic arm to carry out these movements. BrainGate can already be used to write an e-mail or play computer games,just by brain power.
The technology has already cost millions of dollars to develop and when it is available for use,it will probably cost thousands of dollars per person. There are still many challenges ahead for Donoghue nd his team. They are currently planning a mini wireless version,which will allow people to be connected to the computer at all times. Donoghue also dreams of using this technology to help disabled people who can't move their arms or legs. He plans to connect BrainGate directly to their own paralysed limbs(瘫痪的胳膊或腿) .This will mean that the person can control their own body again,without relying on a robotic arm.
This research is attracting the military's (军方的) attention as well. However,it is easy to understand why scientists might be concerned about how thought-controlled machines could be used by the military.
32. What does the underlined word “These” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A. Wires. B. Brains.
C. Thoughts. D. Movements.
33. According to the text,what is one of BrainGate's disadvantages?
A. It is too expensive.
B. It needs improvement.
C. It is difficult to control.
D. It produces few movements.
34. How will Donoghue help disabled people?
A. By making BrainGate smaller.
B. By developing a wireless version.
C. By attaching BrainGate to their bad limbs.
D. By replacing their limbs with robotic ones.
35. What does the military think of thought-controlled machines?
A. They could be useful.
B. They could lead to disasters.
C. They would be in mass production.
D. They would face fierce competition.

Oh,you’ve been there: Your parents are insisting you come home by 10 ,when everyone else can stay out until midnight. Your soccer coach keeps benching you. 36 We all have days when we think we might explode.
That's because anger is 101 percent normal — in fact,it ,s rooted in the most primitive of survival mechanisms(机制) . 37 But humans,highly evolved (进化的) brains attach similar meaning to things that aren't life-threatening but produce an equally intense response.
Of course,no one ever got into trouble for having angry thoughts. 38 Think about it: Scream at your parents? Grounded. Eye-roll at your teacher? Sent to detention(课后留校的惩罚) .So consider the following survival guide to making it through those moments when you're about to explode.
First,recognize your anger response. When you’ re angry,your whole body reacts,and your angry feelings can go from zero to out-of-control before they even register in your brain!That's why it's important to pay attenjion to physical signals. 39
Second,pause the passion. It can be impossible to make right decisions when you re angry. So once you ve recognized that you re mad,stop whatever you’ re doing,which will stop your body's anger response and get your brain back on track. Try one of these simple,science-backed methods to freeze your feelings and calm your mind. For example,you can take deep breaths,or close your eyes and count (to 10,to 100 ... whatever it takes!) . 40
Once the heat of the moment is behind you,you may be able to move right on.
A. You’ re angry,and who wouldn't be?
B. People sometimes lose control and get violent.
C. A simple “Hey man,not cool” would probably do the trick.
D. Or shift your focus to something pleasant to lift your spirits.
E. It is what you do about your anger that makes all the difference.
F. When an animal is threatened,it feels anger as a signal to fight to stay alive.
G. Learn to recognize them on the spot and you'11 be able to keep your anger in check.

Most people don't notice I'm polite,which is the point. I am big and look less energetic. Still,every year or so,someone takes me aside and says,wYou actually are polite,aren’t you?” I'm always thrilled. They noticed. That's the thing. When we talk about politeness,we usually think of please; thank you; I like your hat; etc. AW we need to do is to hear,not to notice.
When I was in high school,I read etiquette manuals (手册) . No one noticed my politeness except for one kid. He yelled at me about it. aIt's strange that you are always so polite,” he said. I took that as praise and made a note to hide my politeness further. Real politeness,I reasoned,was invisible(看不见的) . It adapted itself to the situation.
Politeness leaves doors open. V ve met so many people whom,if I had trusted my first impressions,I would never have wanted to meet again. Yet many of them are now great friends. One of those people is my wife. On our first date,she told me at length that she had an operation to remove a cyst (瘤) from her body. This is a cyst with hair and teeth. Of course,it killed the chemistry. But when I walked her home,I told her I'd had a great time. We talked a little after that. I kept everything pleasant and brief. Much later,I learned that she’d been having a very bad day in a very bad year.
People silently suffer from all kinds of terrible things. The good thing about politeness is you can regard these people exactly the same and wait to see what happens. You don't have to have an opinion. You don't need to make a judgment.
Last week,my two-year-old son,Abraham met a foreign woman in the playground. Out of curiosity,I suppose,he asked, “What's your name?” The woman told him. Then he put out his little hand and said, “Nice to meet you!” Everyone laughed and he smiled. He shared with her his firmest handshake,like I taught him.

When I was growing up,our family often started a jigsaw puzzle(拼图游戏) in the evening. Everyone would go to bed,but I wouldn’t. I cannot leave a puzzle unfinished. I would just keep going,and finish it at five in the morning. When everyone got up in the morning,too bad — the puzzle was done.
In eighth grade,I decided to be a professional puzzle maker. However,I attended law school eventually. The spring of my first year in law school,I wrote my parents that I'd be dropping out to work on puzzles. My mom wrote back a very thoughtful .letter saying, “This is a terrible idea ,” and listing all the reasons why. I thought her reasoning was good,so I did get my law degree.
I have worked as a crossword(纵横字谜) editor since 1993 and invented hundreds of varieties of puzzles. I get 75 to 100 crossword submissions (投稿) a week. Every puzzle has to be looked at and responded to: yes or no. Usually,I write some comments on the puzzle. On average,about half the clues in the puzzles are mine. The most important thing for my work is accuracy,so I check anything that I'm not 100% sure of. I also edit for the proper level of difficulty,freshness,color,and just a sense of fun. After the puzzles are edited,they are typeset (排版) and sent to four test solvers.
In our daily life,we’ re faced with various problems. We do the best we can,but we never know if we’ve got the best solution. The great thing about a human-made puzzle is when we? re done,we know we have achieved perfection. We don't get that feeling much in everyday life.
I enjoy everything I do. I'11 never get tired of doing this.
24. When the author was a child,why did he stay up to finish a puzzle?
A. Because he couldn’t fall asleep early.
B. Because he had a great love for puzzles.
