18、s. Healthy food choices were difficult for him, and he was emotionally distraught (忧心忡忡). However, when he left home for college, he was able for the first time to start taking his life and weight into his own hands.He started by shopping at a local farmers market, an experience that inspired him pr
19、ofoundly. The idea that a farmers market represents local, sustainable, healthy food with a human connection where you can interact with the people that grow your produce was extremely appealing to him, and he began to think about the food that people at his university were eating. From what he saw
20、at farmers markets, Hai realized that dining hall food was not “real” food. A lot of it is frozen or processed, and has unhealthy additives. His ideas continued to develop as he started taking classes about food sustainability at university, and after the summer of 2014 during which he cooperated wi
21、th other students, he launched into his senior year at the University of California full force with the Real Food Challenge (RFC) campaign, a project he co-founded that aims to reinvest university spending in food that is “real”: ecologically-sound, community-based, humane, and fair; as opposed to t

26、 life, adult friendships also grow more important. For people in relationships, having a reliable group is important, too-your mate will be much happier if youre spreading your anxieties beyond his or her ears and you will also feel better.In a recent study, researchers made some fascinating finding
27、s about how “who we are” informs the friendships we hold. The study was based on the most popular personality construct in contemporary psychology, the Big 5 personality 7traits (特征): extraversion, or how much you love attention and interacting with people; neuroticism, or how easily worried you are
28、 by things; agreeableness, or how warm and kind you are; conscientiousness, or how careful you are about lifes many duties; and openness to experience, or how much youre into discovering new things, whether theyre ideas, people, or places.For their study, the research team recruited 434 students. Th
29、ey took a personality questionnaire in the lab, then rated how satisfied they were with their friends and their life overall, and then researchers asked them to recommend half a dozen friends to rate their personality. Gathering these ratings together, the researchers found that openness to experien
30、ce didnt have anything to do with friendship satisfaction, at least in this study. Neuroticism was linked to lower satisfaction (probably because emotionally unstable people may be dramatic or hard to please, at least in my personal experience). But having high scores in the three remaining sunny tr
31、aits-conscientiousness, extra version, and agreeableness-predicted higher friendship satisfaction. However, its a pretty intuitive (直觉的) result, since its easy to be friends with someone whos always on time, always saying that youre right, and always up to hang out.

35、 friendship satisfaction.DA typical school day in the UK starts around 8:30 am. This is often even earlier elsewhere in the world, with students sitting down to their first lesson at 7:30 am in the US. The average teenager ideally needs eight to nine hours sleep each night, but in reality a lot of t
36、eenagers struggle to get this much. A lot of the problems arise because our sleep patterns are not fixed, and they change as we grow.So a later school start time could help to solve this problem, by ensuring teenagers to get their eight plus hours of sleep and react properly to their bodys natural r
37、hythms. There has been a general shift over the past 25 years to shorten the school day. This is not at the cost of teaching time (which has remained constant) but at the cost of natural breaks, which has led to reduced lunch time and lesson breaks.Later start times could help teens grades and healt
38、h. This is mainly because it makes the management of children easier. Supervising (监管) hundreds of children “playing” requires effective staffing. And there is always the fear that behaviour worsens during breaks. So the theory goes that having them in class and strictly supervised must be better.Bu
39、t this means that students barely have enough time to absorb what they were doing in maths before suddenly they are thrust into ancient history. And teaching staff also transit from one class to another, with hardly a rest or time to refocus.9Clearly rethinking the school day could benefit everyone
40、involved. Anyway, it could also lead to better achievement in teenagers and less of a struggle for parents in the mornings.

Whats the purpose of the children short lesson breaks according to the text?A. To reduce childrens excitement.B. To make children quickly take in what they
42、learned.C. To supervise children more easily.D. To make children behave better in class.34. What can we learn about later school start time from the text?A. It will add to the teachers pressure. B. It has always been there for 25 years.C. It benefits the students only. D. Parents may support it.35.
43、What can be the best title for the text?A. The benefits of a less stressful dayB. How to solve teenagers sleep problemC. The benefits of later school start timeD. The reasons why teenagers sleep differently 第二节（共 5小题；每小題 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。选项中有两项为多余选项。I have been living in Toulou
