They grew up in a difficult environment and faced violence, drugs and troubledfamily life which could prevent them from succeeding in school and in life.Before becoming  an educator, Clark  served in  the U.S. Amy  Reserve. His experience  mighthave influenced how he ran his school. He was known to walk around with a bull horn and a baseballbat.In Clark's first days of working, he expelled 300 students for breaking school rules.

But  are thedecisions we make about our diet as free as we assume?It appears we're  hugely influenced by other people  -- especially those closest to  us -- when itcomes to what we eat. Research has found that the closer and stronger two people's connection is, themore control they have over each other's food choices. This means social signals generally encourageus to eat more. Being  around healthy eaters may guide you  to eat healthier as well, though.  Eatinghabits are also affected by what we see. “There is proof that,  if you see pictures of food, that visualstimulation can inspire your desire to eat,” says a UK scientist,Suzanne Higgs.Social media is  one place where visual  and social signals meet.  Evidence shows if friends  inyour social network post regularly about particular types of food, it could lead you to copy them, forbetter or for worse. And research indicates that social media might be changing our relationship withfood, making us think differently about what we eat. “If all your friends on social media are postingpictures of  themselves consuming fast  food, it's going  to set a norm  that eating fast  food is whatpeople do,"says Higgs.Research suggests we're more likely to be attracted by photos of fast food, especially some richin saturated fat（饱和脂肪），which can make us feel good, says Ethan Pancer, a professor in Canada.Humans are biologically prepared to seek out high-calorie food -- an ability that helped our ancestorssurvive when they searched for  food. “Healthier foods are often seen  as boring in comparison, andprocessed  food  is  considered  'cool',”  a  researcher  from  France,Tina  Tessitore,  adds  that,  “Inadvertising, you see unhealthy  food in social settings -- people having  a barbeque with friends, forexample, while healthy food usually focuses more on the nutritional value. If you saw friends eatingsalad together,  it wouldn't  seem so  true." All of  the findings  are bothering  researchers about theeffects of social media, whether good or bad.28.What's the author's main purpose in writing the article?A.To present elements affecting eating habits.C.To raise public awareness of physical health.B.To explain the reasons for advertising food.D.To conclude findings of a new research.29.Which of the statements might Suzanne Higgs agree with?A.Seeing photos of familiar food prevents you from eating more.B.Social media has more influence on your dieting than close friends.C.You may fall into the habit of fast food consumption following social media.D.You're sure to imitate what others make and eat if you regularly surf the Internet.30.What can we infer from the article?A.People are free to make a choice on what to eat.B.Human beings are born to choose food rich in calorie.C.The young generation prefer fast food because it's “cool”.4
D.You'll be easily encouraged to pick out food by experts.31.What might the author focus on in the following paragraph?A.Researchers make market surveys testing netizens' acceptance of salad.B.Internet stars stand out in advertising different kinds of processed food.C.Public opinions vary on the current issue of food safety and nutritious diet.D.Researchers are becoming concerned about how social media affects our diet.DFish cats are a kind of cats that love water and love to fish. They are like tigers and lions, onlymuch smaller,around twice the size of our average pet cats. They live in wetlands of South Asia andmangrove forests（红树林） of South and  Southeast Asia.Like many endangered species, fish catswere in danger of  dying out more than twenty years  ago, mainly because of the great  internationalneed for fish food and the people's cutting of the mangroves at an extremely fast speed.Mangroves of Southeast Asia are home to a great many fantastic species, like  fish cats, turtles,shorebirds  and others.  Mangroves  can protect  soil,  and they  can be  the  first line  of  protectionbetween  storms, tsunamis  and  the  millions of  people  who  live next  to  them.  The fact  is  thatmangroves can store almost five to ten times more CO2 than other forests. So protecting mangrovesmay well be like protecting five to ten times more of other forests.Ten years ago, in South India, many people came together to change the future of their home. Inless than 10 years, with international support, the state forest departments and the local peopleworked together to restore over 20,000 acres of unproductive fish and shrimp farms back intomangroves. Now experts are working with them in helping study and protecting the mangroves aswell as the species living in them.Fish and shrimp farmers are now willing to work with experts to test the harvest of natureprotection like fishes, turtles and other species in mangroves. The local farmers are encouraged toprotect and plant mangroves where they have been lost. A win-win-win for fish cats,local people andthe global ecosystem（生态系统）is being built.32.What made the fish cats endangered?A.Natural enemies and environment pollution.C.Being too large and need for fish food.33.Why are mangroves so important?A.They can prevent extreme weather.C.They help plants grow better on the soil.34.What is the last paragraph mainly about?A.Ways of turning farms into forests.C.Efforts to protect the mangroves.35.What's the best title for the text?A.Fish Cats and Mangroves ProtectionC.Ways to Protect Fish CatsB.Cutting of mangroves and lack of water.D.Less fish and overcutting of mangroves.B.They can take in more CO2 effectively.D.They are perfect home to all species.B.Changes of South India in 10 years.D.Work in protecting shrimps.B.The Importance of MangrovesD.Man and Nature第二节七选五（共  5小题；每小题  2.5分，满分  12.5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Camping is a  great way to  enjoy nature.You can breathe  fresh air, cook  over a campfire and5
