At the start of my junior year,I was deep in the pressure which didn't come from adults,but came from other high schoolmates in my class.Everyone in my grade had the college on the brain.In order to get into the ideal college, we all believed we should make good use of time to work harder than everyoneelse.Because sleeping time was not the time that we could get for the study of SAT(学术能力评估测试).
I used to be surrounded by the pressure I used to believe that if I wasn’t among the top students in my class，I wasn’t doing that enough.It was easy for me to get angry and I couldn’t focus v?y attention on the things that I was doing:I stopped talking to my friends,or to my mom，and I couldn’t figure out who I was.夏didn’t touch my computer or chat with my friends online.And I didn’t have the confidence to know whether my own love and skills could make me have the opportunity to go to college.
Fortunately,I realized what colleges wanted was not masking who I was.
I decided to show my advantages and stay away from the crazy pressure I was putting on myself.Instead of forcing myself into higher levels of math,I participated in an extra history class.
Instead of forcing myself to do more homework that I hated t I cut back and focused on the things that I loved.I learned how to love what I was doing instead of the things that I was supposed to do,I earned to shine as an individual,not a faceless member.And I found that this was better for my happiness and also made me more effective when I studied.
To me,individuality means having the confidence to decide who I am and who I want to be.I am myself,and ready to apply for a college than ever.
25.What did the author make efforts to do like other high schoolmates?
A.Get less sleep.
B.Do well at college.

B.The authors bad temper towards others.
C.The authors lack of confidence in himself.
D.The author^bad relationships with his family.
27.The author decided to run away from his pressure by.
A.preparing for the examB.showing his own strength
C.masking who he really was
D.talking with others about his problems

Juet one fizzy(泡沫腾涌的)drink a day can damage teenagers’memory,a new study has found.Researchers at the University of Southern California found drinks that contain too much sugar can affect people’s ability to leam.
As well as causing fatness,the drinks have also been blamed for making teenagers more violent.Now,experiments have found that they can damage the brain’s activity and the ability to remember information.In the study,both adult and adolescent rats were given daily access to sweetened drinks that are rich in fructose com syrup(果糖玉米糖浆)or sugar found in common soft drinks. The adults performed normally in tests of cognitive(认知)Junction after a month.But when consumption occurred during adolescence,the rats performed poorly in tests of learning and memory ability.
In addition to causing memory damage,adolescent consumption for sweetened drinks also produced inflammation(炎症）in the hippocampus(an area of the brain that controls many learning and memory functions).Dr Kanoski, who presented his findings at an annual meeting in Seattle,said,“The hippocampus is such a critical brain region for memory function.It:is particularly sensitive to various environmental factors,including eating foods that ate high in fat and processed sugar.”
There is no recommended number of soft and fizzy drinks that children can have.But the National Health Service advises,as part of a healthy balanced diet,it is important that they should not have too many between meals.It also mentions that parents should attach great importance to helping their children develop good habits of eating.It’s not easy to protect children from
drinking too much coco cola or something like that，but something must be done to let them know wYou are what you eat”.
29.Which of the following is the consequence of soft drinks rich in sugar?
A.Damage to the teeth*
B.Fatness and laziness.
C.The sensitivity to environmental factors.
D.More violent behavior and learning progress.
30.How do the researchers prove fizzy drinks affect memory?
A.By making experiments.
B.By making comparisons.
C.By providing figures.
D.By analyzing causes and effects.
31.What’s the idea of Dr.Kanoski?
A.Too many soft drinks can damage the brain.
B.There is no close connection between diet and memory.
C.The Hippocampus has nothing to do with memory function.
D.Soft drinks can temporarily lower the ability to learn.
32.Which of the following sentences can best describe the theme of the passage?
A.Too much sugar can affect people’s ability to learn.
B.It’s important to help children develop good habits of eating.
C.The drinks have been blamed for making teenagers more violent.
D.Just one fizzy drink a day can damage teenagers，memory and learning ability.
D
Parents who control their children too much could cause them lifelong psychological damage t according to a study which tracked a group of people born in the1940s until the present day.
Researchers found that people who reported their parents had controlled their private life or encouraged dependence were more likely to have low scores in surveys of happiness and general well-being in their teens,their30s，their40s and even their60s*In contrast,people who said their parents were more caring,warm and responsive to their needs tended to be more content well into adulthood.The findings are the peak of a survey which has tracked more than5,000 people since their birth in1946,It is well-established that childhood influences can have significant effects on the developing brain,but this h one of the first studies that have attempted to measure their impact over such a long period of time.Information on parenting styles was only available from the study participants themselves,who were asked to recall their childhoods when in their40s,and unhappy people may be more likely to describe their parents as controlling.
However,the researchers said children who are able to form secure emotional bonds with parents are more likely to have secure，happy relationships later in life.
Controls of children’s privacy let children fail to make their own decisions.On the other hand，study participants were asked about behavioral control，which included elements of parenting that involve not letting children get their own way：for example，not always allowing them to go out as often as they would like.No links with psychological well-being were observed in relation to this kind of parenting.
33.What can we infer from the second paragraph?
A.This study tracked a group of people born from1940to2015.
B.People whose parents had controls were happier in the surveys.
C.People whose parents satisfied their needs felt good in their adulthood.
D.The influences on childhood can have side effects on the developing brain.
34.Which statement below is included into the examples of psychologically controlling behavior?
A.Parents don’t encourage children’s independence.
B.Parents pay too little attention to the their children.
C.Parents let their children make their decisions on their own.
D.Parents allow their children to go out as often as they would like.
35.What does this passage mainly talk about?
A.Parents should care about their children.B.Controls of children^privacy help them make decisions,
C.Too much control from parents damages children's minds.
D.Parents should make friends with their children.
