For the past century,the nuclear family,only including parents and children,has defined U.S.homes.But Americans lived with friends and extended family long before the nuclear family became common.Even now,this mode of living exists somewhere;think of college campuses,which tend to be the kind of walkable communities where you're regularly running into pals on the street. While moving closer to friends would likely require a lot of efforts,doing so could actually be really good for you.Having supportive friends is connected with greater day-to-day happiness.Researchers have found that happiness spreads easily, 高一英语学生学业测试第4页（共12页) especially among those who live close together.Friends living within a mile of each other are 25 percent more likely to feel happy,and their friends have a 10 percent chance of feeling happier too.Live around people who make you happy,and you might create a happiness circle that cheers up everyone around you. Having a pal around is also just practical.For people with kids,a friend in the neighborhood might be able to help with child care in times of need,saving you the cost of a last-minute babysitter.Those without children might welcome the chance to bond with friends'kids.And for people who live alone,living closer to friends can make savings on some things easier.You might share household items you don't need every day,for example.Whatever the reason,having more people you trust around will make it easier for you to get through difficult times. Many people are prepared to move for a new job,to be with a romantic partner, or even just for an adventure.Moving to be closer to friends should be no different. Friends are important to a good life.So why not shorten the distance between you and them? 24.Which was popular in the US before the nuclear family became common? A.The one-parent family.

D Previous studies have suggested children who spend their days looking out of the window instead of paying attention may be among the cleverest pupils.The latest study,however,suggests in the long run constantly daydreaming will leave children struggling to keep up with their peers.Dr Agnieszka Graham,a lecturer in applied developmental psychology at Queen's University Belfast,said,"In school,often children can get in trouble for mind wandering.It is sometimes viewed as a sign of disrespect or misbehavior if they are not paying attention." The study,conducted by Queen's University Belfast,is the first to deal with the impact of so-called"mind wandering"on learning in young children.The researchers played a story about a fictional pharaoh()in ancient Egypt to 97 children aged 6 -11 and asked them a question every two minutes to check if they were paying attention.The study found that mind wandering had a significant impact on learning, as children who daydreamed the most remembered less about the story.The researchers discovered the children's minds wandered a quarter of the time,and they could not help it. According to the study,daydreaming during a classroom-style listening activity is not only common but also harmful to memory in children.And because the impact of daydreaming is so clear,teachers should consider how they teach young children to reduce mind wandering. However,the research has found children,like adults,are unable to fully concentrate all the time;it's likely that their minds will wander several times in a typical school day.The findings show that further exploring the causes and consequences of mind wandering in these early years at school could provide a solid foundation for developing interventions(),which will help children find out when their attention drifts away from the present task and refocus their attention. 高一英语学生学业测试第7页（共12页） 32.Why did Queen's University Belfast conduct the study? A.To improve children's memory. B.To learn a story about ancient Egypt. C.To check children's attention in class. D.To research the influence of mind wandering. 33.What might the researchers advise teachers to do? A.Help with further research. B.Help children concentrate. C.Reduce their own mind wandering. D.Work harder while teaching young 34.What does the underlined word drifts in the last paragraph mean? A.Breaks. B.Remains. C.Moves. D.Sticks. 35.What's the author's attitude to children's mind wandering? A.Concerned. B.Supportive. C.Uninterested. D.Unclear. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5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。选项中有 两项为多余选项。 Why is Chinese a Good Language to Learn If there's one language in the world that's worth learning,it's the Chinese language.You must be wondering why.36 Gain the job opportunities.With the steady development for decades,China has become the second largest economic power in the world while keeping closely connected with the West.37 It helps a lot if you're looking to work in a career that involves dealing with Chinese buyers or suppliers.
