Bacteria are an annoying problem for astronauts. The microorganisms（微生物） from our bodies grow uncontrollably on surfaces of the International Space Station, so astronauts spend hours cleaning them up each week. How is NASA overcoming this very tiny big problem? It’s turning to a bunch of high school kids. But not just any kids. It depending on NASA HUNCH high school classrooms, like the one science teachers Gene Gordon and Donna Himmelberg lead at Fairport High School in Fairport, New York.
HUNCH is designed to connect high school classrooms with NASA engineers. For the past two years, Gordon’s students have been studying ways to kill bacteria in zero gravity, and they think they’re close to a solution（解決方案）. “We don’t give the students any breaks. They have to do it just like NASA engineers,” says Florence Gold, a project manager.
"There are no tests," Gordon says. "There is no graded homework. There almost are no grades, other than 'Are you working towards your goal?' Basically, it’s 'I’ve got to produce this product and then, at the end of year, present it to NASA.' Engineers come and really do an in-person review, and... it’s not a very nice thing at times. It’s a hard business review of your product."
Gordon says the HUNCH program has an impact（影響） on college admissions and practical life skills. "These kids are so absorbed in their studies that I just sit back. I don’t teach." And that annoying bacteria? Gordon says his students are emailing daily with NASA engineers about the problem, readying a workable solution to test in space.

（2018年全國卷II，D）
We've all been there: in a lift, in line at the bank or on an airplane, surrounded by people who are, like us, deeply focused on their smartphones or, worse, struggling with the uncomfortable silence.
What's the problem? It's possible that we all have compromised conversational intelligence. It's more likely that none of us start a conversation because it's awkward and challenging, or we think it's annoying and unnecessary. But the next time you find yourself among strangers, consider that small talk is worth the trouble .Experts say it's an invaluable social practice that results in big benefits.
Dismissing small talk as unimportant is easy, but we can't forget that deep relationships wouldn't even exist if it weren't for casual conversation. Small talk is the grease (潤滑劑)for social communication, says Bernardo Carducci, director of the Shyness Research Institute at Indiana University Southeast ."Almost every great love story and each big business deal begins with small talk, "he explains. "The key to successful small talk is learning how to connect with others, not just communicate with them.”
In a 2014 study, Elizabeth Dunn, associate professor of psychology at UBC, invited people on their way into a coffee shop. One group was asked to seek out an interaction(互動(dòng)) with its waiter, the other, to speak only when necessary. The results showed that those who chatted with their server reported significantly higher positive feelings and a better coffee shop experience. "it's not that talking to the waiter is better than talking to your husband.”says Dunn ."But interactions with peripheral (邊緣的)members of our social network matter for our well-being also.”
Dunn believes that people who reach out to strangers feel a significantly greater sense of belonging, a bond with others. Carducci believes developing such a sense of belonging starts with small talk. "Small talk is the basis of good manners, ”he says.
32. What phenomenon is described in the first paragraph?
A.Addiction to smartphones
B .Inappropriate behaviours in public places
C. Absence of communication between strangers.
D .Impatience with slow service
【答案】.C
【解析】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。題干句意：第一段描述的是什么現(xiàn)象？根據(jù)第一段描述（無論我們身在何處，在電梯里、在銀行排隊(duì)或者在飛機(jī)上，我周圍的人或是像我們一樣在埋頭看智能手機(jī)，或是更壞，在和令人不安的沉默做斗爭(zhēng)）可知，C項(xiàng)“陌生人之間缺乏交流”和首段描述一致，故答案為C項(xiàng)。A項(xiàng)“手機(jī)控”只是該段描述現(xiàn)象時(shí)舉的例子項(xiàng)“公共場(chǎng)合的不恰當(dāng)行為”與首段意思不符；D項(xiàng)“對(duì)緩慢的服務(wù)缺乏耐心”和第一段的描述無關(guān)。

34. What does the coffee-shop study suggest about small talk?
A. It improves family relationships.
B. It raises people's confidence.
C. It matters as much as a formal talk.
D. It makes people feel good.
【答案】.D

Teens and younger children are reading a lot less for fun, according to a Common Sense Media report published Monday.
While the decline over the past decade is steep for teen readers, some data in the report shows that reading remains a big part of many children's lives, and indicates how parents might help encourage more reading.
According to the report's key findings, “the proportion(比例) who say they‘hardly ever’read for fun has gone from 8 percent of 13-year-olds and 9 percent of 17-year-olds in 1984 to 22 percent and 27 percent respectively today.”
The report data shows that pleasure reading levels for younger children. ages 2-8, remain largely the same. But the amount of time spent in reading each session has declined, from closer to an hour or more to closer to a half hour per session.
When it comes to technology and reading，the report does little to counsel (建議) parents looking for data about the effect of e-readers and tablets on reading. It does point out that many parents still limit electronic reading, mainly due to concerns about increased screen time.
The most hopeful data shared in the report shows clear evidence of parents serving as examples and important guides for their kids when it comes to reading, Data shows that kids and teens who do read frequently, compared to infrequent readers, have more books in the home, more books purchased for them, parents who read more often, and parents who set aside time for them to read.
As the end of school approaches, and school vacation reading lists loom (逼近) ahead ,parents might take this chance to step in and make their own summer reading list and plan a family trip to the library or bookstore.

(2019年全國卷I. D）
During the rosy years of elementary school（小學(xué)）, I enjoyed sharing my dolls and jokes, which allowed me to keep my high social status. I was the queen of the playground. Then came my tweens and teens, and mean girls and cool kids. They rose in the ranks not by being friendly but by smoking cigarettes, breaking rules and playing jokes on others, among whom I soon found myself.
Popularity is a well-explored subject in social psychology. Mitch Prinstein, a professor of clinical psychology sorts the popular into two categories: the likable and the status seekers. The likables’ plays-well-with-others qualities strengthen schoolyard friendships, jump-start interpersonal skills and, when tapped early, are employed ever after in life and work. Then there’s the kind of popularity that appears in adolescence: status born of power and even dishonorable behavior.
Enviable as the cool kids may have seemed, Dr. Prinstein’s studies show unpleasant consequences. Those who were highest in status in high school, as well as those least liked in elementary school, are ＂most likely to engage（從事）in dangerous and risky behavior.＂
In one study, Dr. Prinstein examined the two types of popularity in 235 adolescents, scoring the least liked, the most liked and the highest in status based on student surveys（調(diào)查研究）. ＂We found that the least well-liked teens had become more aggressive over time toward their classmates. But so had those who were high in status. It clearly showed that while likability can lead to healthy adjustment, high status has just the opposite effect on us."
Dr. Prinstein has also found that the qualities that made the neighbors want you on a play date-sharing, kindness, openness — carry over to later years and make you better able to relate and connect with others.
In analyzing his and other research，Dr. Prinstein came to another conclusion: Not only is likability related to positive life outcomes, but it is also responsible for those outcomes, too. "Being liked creates opportunities for learning and for new kinds of life experiences that help somebody gain an advantage, ＂ he said.

34. What did Dr. Prinstein’s study find about the most liked kids?
A. They appeared to be aggressive.
B. They tended to be more adaptable.

healthy adjustment(調(diào)整，適應(yīng)）對(duì)應(yīng)B項(xiàng)中的adaptable(能適應(yīng)的）,故答案為B項(xiàng)。A:他們顯得有侵略性；C:他們喜歡最高的地位；D:他們學(xué)習(xí)成績很好。
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. Be Nice—You Won’t Finish Last
B. The Higher the Status, the Better
C. Be the Best—You Can Make It
D. More Self-Control, Less Aggressiveness

(2019遼寧撫順一模，B)
On November 7, Lewis Pugh completed a one-kilometer swim in the freezing waters of King Edward Cove, off South Georgia in Antarctica. He was wearing only his swimming glasses, cap and Speedos!
Pugh is an advocate for our oceans and seas, working to protect these ecosystems with their large diversity of marine life.When asked why he doesn't wear a wetsuit, Lewis says, "I ask world leaders to do everything they can to protect our oceans.Sometimes the steps they need to take are difficult and unpopular. If I'm asking them to be courageous, I must also be.Swimming in a wetsuit would not send the right message."It took Pugh about 18 minutes to complete the one-kilometer swim in Antarctica where the water averaged about minus 1.7 degrees Celsius. He says that his body can onl tolerate about 20 minutes in the freezing waters before it starts shutting down. As he swims, his body temperature steadily drops, which in turn causes his muscle control to drop, slowing him down. When he is done with his swim, his support team rushes him to a hot shower and it takes almost an hour for his body temperature to return to normal.
Doctors and Pugh caution that one must receive months of training to swim in such cold waters. Even expert swimmers who are unused to freezing water can drown within minutes because of the physical shock experienced by the body. Pugh says he trained for six months before this swim.
This is not the first time that Lewis has swum in dangerous conditions. In 2007, he swam one kilometer in the North Pole to draw attention to the melting Arctic ice due to climate change. In2015,he swam in the Bay of Whales in Antarctica's Ross Sea as part of his successful campaign to help set up a marine reserve there.
1.Why did Lewis Pugh swim without a wetsuit?
A.To swim faster.
B.To show his bravery.
C.To build up his body.
D.To win public attention.
【答案】.B
【解析】推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段的 Sometimes the steps they need to take are difficult and unpopular. If I'm asking them to be courageous, I must also be.可知，有時(shí)候采取保護(hù)海洋的措施很艱難，也不受歡迎，如果建議他人大膽地去保護(hù)海洋，自己也必須要勇敢些，因此在不穿潛水衣的情況下游泳是為了表現(xiàn)自己的勇敢。
2. What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A.His body.
B.The water.
C.His body temperature.
D.The water temperature.
【答案】.A
【解析】詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)第三段的He says that his body can only tolerate about 20 minutes in the freezing waters before it starts shutting down.可以得知在冰冷的水域中他的身體只能承受大約20分鐘，之后就停止工作，由此可知it指代his body。
3 . What's Pugh's advice about swimming in freezing waters ?
A.One must be fully prepared.
B.One should be expert at swimming.
C.One should be ready to take on challenges.
D.One must be used to long-distance swimming.
【答案】.A
【解析】 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段的 Doctors and Pugh caution that one must receive months of training to swim in such cold waters.可知，醫(yī)生和皮尤提醒大家，在如此冰冷的水中游泳前，必須接受幾個(gè)月的訓(xùn)練，也就是說要做好充分的準(zhǔn)備，故A項(xiàng)正確。
