Many schools were closed. Companies allowed workers to stay home. Long queues formed at airports.‎ As Japanese authorities struggled to avoid disaster at an earthquakebattered nuclear plant ‎240 km to the north, parts of Tokyo resembled a ghost town. Many people stocked up on food and stayed indoors or simply left, transforming one of the world's biggest and most populated cities into a shell of its usual self.‎ ‎“Look, it's like Sunday —no cars in town，” said Kazushi Arisawa, a 62yearold taxi driver, as he waited for more than an hour outside an office tower where he usually finds customers within minutes. “I can't make money today. ”‎ Radiation in Tokyo has been negligible,_ briefly touching three times the normal rate on Tuesday, smaller than a dental Xray. On Wednesday, winds over the Fukushima (福岛) nuclearpower plant blew out to sea, keeping levels close to normal. But that does little to relieve public anxiety about a 40yearold nuclear plant with three reactors in partial meltdown (熔毁)and a fourth with spent atomic fuel exposed to the atmosphere after last Friday's earthquake and tsunami.‎ ‎“Radiation moves faster than we do，” said Steven Swanson, a 43yearold American who moved to Tokyo in December with his Japanese wife to help with her family business.He is staying indoor but is tempted to leave.“It's scary.It's a triple threat with the earthquake, tsunami and the nuclear radiation leaks.It makes you wonder what's next. ”‎ ‎【语篇解读】 本文主要介绍了日本的核辐射泄露对人们造成的影响。‎ ‎1．The text is mainly about________.‎ A．the earthquake that happened in March B．the government's effort to avoid disaster C．the effects of the nuclear radiation leaks D．the earthquakebattered nuclearpower plant 解析　主旨大意题。整篇文章介绍了日本的核辐射泄露对人们造成的影响。故选C项。‎ 答案　C ‎2．What did Kazushi Arisawa mean?‎ A．There're usually more cars on Sundays.‎ B．He didn't care much about nuclear radiation.‎ C．He preferred to stay at home on Sundays.‎ D．He couldn't find many customers.‎ 解析　细节理解题。从文章第三段的“as he waited for more than an hour outside an office tower where he usually finds customers within minutes.‘I can't make money today.’”看出答案。‎ 答案　D ‎3．The underlined word “negligible”in Paragraph 4 most probably means________.‎ A．serious B．slight C．normal D. average 解析　词义猜测题。从下文的“smaller than a dental Xray”看出答案。‎ 答案　B ‎4．What can we learn about the Fukushima nuclearpower plant from the text?‎ A．It lies to the south of Tokyo.‎ B．It started to operate about fifty years ago.‎ C．It was damaged in the earthquake and tsunami.‎ D．All its four reactors are now well under control.‎ 解析　推理题。从文章第四段的“a 40yearold nuclear plant with three reactors in partial meltdown (熔毁)and a fourth with spent atomic fuel exposed to the atmosphere after last Friday's earthquake and tsunami”看出答案。‎ 答案　C B Research shows that childhood friendships are important indicators of future success and social adjustment.Children’s relationships with peers (同龄人) strongly influence their success in school，and children with fewer friends are more at risk of dropping out of school，becoming depressed and other problems.‎ Making and Keeping Friends Is More than Child’s Play When 6yearold Rachel returned to school on a recent Monday morning，her eyes immediately scanned the playground for her friend Abbie.“Though they were only separated by a weekend，the girls ran right into each other’s arms and hugged，”recalls Rachel’s mother ‎ Kathryn Willis of Gilbert.“It was like a scene from a movie.”‎ Most parents instinctively (本能地) know that having friends is good for their child.Experts agree that friendship is not simply child’s play，but a powerful predictor of social adjustment throughout life.‎ A Skill for Life ‎“Childhood friendships serve as a very important training ground for adulthood，” says Dr.Robbie AdlerTapia，psychologist with the Center for Children’s Health & Life Development at the East Valley Family Resource Center.‎ Researcher William Hartup states，“Peer relations contribute significantly to both social and cognitive (认知的) development.” Hartup concludes that the single best childhood predictor of adult social adaptation is not school grades or classroom behavior，but rather，how well a child gets along with other children.‎ The work of Arizona State University professor of Developmental Psychology Gary Ladd proves that just as being able to make and keep friends is beneficial to kids，so is the lack of friends detrimental.‎ Good Friendships Don’t Just Happen Experts agree that it is essential for children to establish highquality friendships.But，researchers warn，these friendships don’t necessarily just happen.Often，a good friendship begins with involved parents.‎ Psychologist Dr.Lynne Kenney Markan believes kids should be taught social skills in much the same way they are taught math and reading.‎ Bad Company Many parents worry about the quality as well as the quantity of their child’s friendships.“When she was in 1st grade，her supposed ‘best friend’ began calling her names and threatening to hurt her，” says Mindy Miller.“My daughter wasn’t allowed to talk to or even look at other girls in her class.It really crushed her spirit.I told my daughter she didn’t need a ‘friend’ like that.”‎ ‎“I’ll bend over backwards to help my son get together with a friend I think is good for him，” AdlerTapia says.“I don’t look at it as manipulation (操纵)，just positive parental involvement.”‎ ‎【语篇解读】　研究表明，童年时期的友谊对孩子的将来有着非常重要的意义。‎ ‎5．The example of Rachel and Abbie is used to illustrate that________.‎ A．childhood friendship is of great significance to their growth B．a positive friendship helps children solve emotional and physical problems C．it is a proven fact that peer friendship is the most rewarding experience throughout life D．Rachel missed her friend Abbie very much because of their separation of one weekend 解析　细节理解题。文中六岁的Rachel与她的朋友Abbie 之间的友谊例证了本部分的标题Making and Keeping Friends Is More than Child’s Play，再结合文章首句可知应选A项。‎ 答案　A ‎6．The underlined word “detrimental” could be replaced by________.‎ A．aggressive　　 B．disappointing ‎ C．ridiculous　　 D．harmful 解析　词义猜测题。根据文中的“The work of Arizona State University professor of Developmental Psychology Gary Ladd proves that just as being able to make and keep friends is beneficial to kids，so is the lack of friends detrimental.”可知，“detrimental”与句中的“beneficial”相对应，因此“detrimental”与“harmful”同义。‎ 答案　D ‎7．We can learn from the passage that highquality friendship most probably results from______.‎ A．social skills and good study habits B．school grades and classroom behaviors C．academic success and social adaptation D．positive parental involvement and social skills 解析　细节理解题。根据Good Friendships Don’t Just Happen中的“a good friendship begins with involved parents”与“kids should be taught social skills in much the same way they are taught math and reading”可知，D项正确。‎ 答案　D ‎8．From the last paragraph we can conclude that Dr.Robbie AdlerTapia agrees that________.‎ A．parents should regard making friends as something that just happens B．it’s wise for parents to support and encourage healthy peer relationships C．parents only need to help their children to cope with difficult social situations D．parents are supposed to encourage their children to make as many friends as they can 解析　推理判断题。根据文章的最后一句可推知，父母应该在孩子交友的问题上给予指导，避免其受到不良影响，因此选B。‎ 答案　B
