For three years he learned from him．Then one day，when he thought he had learned everything，the thought arose in him：“If I kill this old man，then I will be the greatest archer．” The old man had gone to cut wood and he was coming back carrying wood on his shoulder．The young man hid behind a tree，waiting to kill him．He shot an arrow．The old man took a small piece of wood and threw it．It struck the arrow and the arrow turned back and wounded the young man．The old mancame，took out the arrow and said, “I knew that some day or other you were going to do this．That’s why I have not taught you this secret．There is no need to kill me．My Master is still alive，and I’m nothing before him．You must be with him for at least thirty years．And he is very old, so go fast!

Many teenagers smoke, drink, wear strange hairs and even fight. Basically, they are often taking risks.Earlier studies have shown that teenagers are more likely to make irrational decisions than people from any other age group, including children and adults. Is it that teenagers are too young to tell right from wrong? Not really. So what explains their risky behavior?According to Laurence Steinberg, a professor at Temple University, US, that is because teens care a lot about how their peers (同龄人) view them –that’s the effect of “peer influence”, reported Science Daily.As children enter their teenage years, they spend more time with their friends and classmates and also become more sensitive to their feedback (反馈). This sensitivity drives teenagers to focus on the short-termbenefits of making risky choices and overlook the costs.In a test, a group of teenagers were asked to play a video driving game. When they played with their friends watching, they took more chances and drove more carelessly because that would increase their possibility of winning. But when they played alone, they tended to drive more safely.Why does pressure from peers have such a big influence on teens’ behavior?As Steinberg sees it, a teenager’s brain is like a car with a good accelerator (油门) but a weak brake (刹车). The “accelerator”, the brain’s ability to notice the benefits of things, is fully developed by teenage years while the “brake”, the brain part related to controlling impulses (冲动) and long-term thinking, is still not mature (成熟的). When teens are under the pressure of being judged by their peers, they tend to push hard on the accelerator. Given how weak the brake is, it is likely that they are going to end up in a crash.But the good news here, according to Steinberg, is that a violent teenager doesn’t necessarily become a violent adult. About two-thirds to three-quarters of violent youth grow out of it. “They get more self-controlled,” Steinberg told Live Science. Also, people who haven’t committed a violent crime by age 19 are less likely to start doing it later, added Steinberg.28.The underlined word “irrational” in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to ______.A.crazyB.quickC.carefulD.independent29.Why are teenagers likely to take risks according to the text?A.They are too young to tell right from wrong.B.They are eager to challenge themselves.C.They care a lot about what their peers think of them.D.Their brains are more sensitive to thrilling events.30.How does Steinberg explain the influence of peer pressure on teens’ behavior?A.By performing an in-depth analysis.B.By giving examples.C.By using a metaphor (比喻).D.By presenting research findings.31.What can we conclude from the text?A.Those who love taking risks are more likely to commit violent crimes.B.The majority of teenagers become less violent when they grow up.C.Violent teenagers often grow to be adults who cannot control themselves well.D.People who are over 19 years old are less likely to commit a crime than teenagers.DThe more we do a thing, the more we tend to like doing it; and if we do not continue to do it, we feel uncomfortable. This is called the force of habits, and the force of habits should be fought against. Habits, whether good or bad, are gradually formed. When a person does a certain thing, he is driven by some unseen force to do the same thing repeatedly; then a habit is formed. Once a habit is formed, it is difficult, and sometimes impossible, to get rid of. It is therefore very important that we should pay great attention to the formation of habits. Children often form bad habits, some of which remain with them as long as they live. Older persons also form bad habits as long as they live, and sometimes become ruined by them.There are other habits which, when formed in early life, are of great help. Many successful men say that much of their success has something to do with certain habits in early life, such as early rising, honesty and so on.Among the habits which children should not form are laziness, lying, stealing and so on. They are all easily formed habits. Unfortunately, older persons often form bad habits, which should have been avoided.We should keep from all these bad habits, and try to form such habits as will be good for others and ourselves. Remember: Habits cure habits.32.Generally speaking, it is difficult for one to __________.A.form bad habits and easy for him to form good habitsB.get rid of good habits and bad habits once formedC.get rid of bad habits and easy for him to form good habitsD.get rid of good habits and easy for him to form bad habits33.We should pay much attention to the formation of habits because __________.A.habits are of great help to everyone of usB.a man can never get rid of the bad habitsC.we are forced to do them repeatedlyD.it’s hard and even not possible to get them away34.__________ are formed little by little.A.Good habitsB.Bad habitsC.Both good habits and bad habitsD.Neither good habits nor bad habits35.According to the passage, early rising or honesty ____________.A.is such a habit as should not have been got rid ofB.is an early formed habit that is with one as long as he livesC.is such a habit as will be kept fromD.is a habit that has something to do with success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。
