Most children who have suffered from ADHD still have it as teens. During teen years, especially as the hormonal changes of teenagers are going on and the demands of school and extra-curricular activities are increasing, ADHD may get worse.

Because of problems with getting unfocused and poor concentration, many teens with ADHD have problems in school. Grades may fall, especially if the teen is not getting ADHD treatment. It’s not uncommon for teens with ADHD to forget their homework, lose textbooks, and become bored with their daily class work. Teens may become inattentive or extremely attentive, not waiting for their turn before blurting out answers. They may cut in on their teacher and classmates. Teens with ADHD may also befidgetyand find it hard to sit still in class.

Often, teens with ADHD are so busy focusing on other things that they forget about the task at hand. This can be seen especially with homework and athletic skills and in relationships with their schoolmates. This lack of attention to what they’re doing often leads to bad grades on tests and being passed over for sports teams, after-school activities, and learning teams. Kids with ADHD can be targets for bullying, too. But, not all children with ADHD have trouble getting along with others. If your child does, you can take measures to help improve their social skills and relationships.

ADHD affects all parts of a teenager’s life. As a parent you should discover your teen’s troubles as early as possible. The earlier your child’s troubles are discovered, the more successful the following steps can be. 4. What does the author plan to do in paragraph 1?

A. To list the types of ADHD. B. To introduce the main topic. C. To show the author’s opinion. D. To explain the causes of ADHD. 5. What does the underlined word “fidgety” probably mean in paragraph 2? A. Clever. B. Noisy. C. Restless. D. Lazy. 6. What is the text mainly about?

A. Ways to deal with ADHD. B. Effects of ADHD on teens. C. Teens’ school performances. D. Demands of school work. 7. What may the following paragraph talk about?

A. How parents can help a teen with ADHD. B. The importance of healthy peer relationships. C. How many children are suffering from ADHD. D. Different opinions about treating ADHD in teens.

Smart speakers have proven to be handy devices in hospitals, allowing patients to control independently . And now, researchers from theUniversityofWashingtonhave developed an artificial intelligence system that enables these devices to monitor heartbeats.

Using technology to remotely monitor heart rates isn't new. These days most smartwatches and fitness trackers are capable of it. The good thing here is that researchers have figured out a way to use the microphones in smart speakers to do it without requiring physical contact.

In a study published inCommunications Biology, the researchers had the smart speakers send out signals that couldn't be heard which were then reflected off a person's body. They then analyzed these signals to identify small chest wall motions related to heartbeats, as well as separate those signals from surrounding noise and breathing.

For this particular proof — of — concept setup, the researchers tested this smart speaker on 26 healthy participants and 24 hospitalized patients with various heart conditions, including atrial fibrillation（心房颤动）and heart failure. In both cases, the smart speaker was within 28 - 30 milliseconds of an ECG（心电图）,the gold standard used in hospitals to discover arrhythmia（心律不齐）.

Like smartwatches with advanced heart features, using smart speakers in this way opens up the possibility for passive, remote heart monitoring. ECGs, while highly accurate, require a visit to the doctor and several electrodes（电极）to be placed on the body. They,re not capable of continuous monitoring so you're limited to what it picks up at that exact moment in time ——one reason why heart arrhythmia can be so hard to discover.

Smartwatches are capable of passive, remote, continuous monitoring, but they require you to wear the device at all times to be effective. It's not something that's comfortable for everyone, especially when it comes to sleep and for those with highly sensitive skin. Another issue is that these advanced smartwatches are expensive, while smart speakers are much cheaper.

“If you have a device like this, you can monitor a patient on an extended basis and then develop corresponding care plans that satisfy the patient' s needs,“ said Dr. Arun Sridhar, co — senior author on the study. \"And the beauty of using this kind of devices is that they are already in people's homes.” 8. What does the author focus on in Paragraph 3? A. How the smart speaker works.

B. Why the smart speaker is useful. C. The advantages of smart speakers. D. The importance of the study.

9. Why is heart arrhythmia difficult to find? A. ECGs are not highly accurate. B. ECGs can't monitor continuously.

C. Doctors know little about heart arrhythmia. D. An ECG test is hard to operate and expensive.

10. Which statement best explains the characteristics of smartwatches? A. They are comfortable to wear. B. They are friendly to sensitive skin. C. They are effective and cheap. D. They are able to monitor remotely. 11. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. We need to invent more smart devices. B. Care plans are vital to patients with heart failure. C. Smart speakers could be contactless heart monitors. D. Different devices are needed to meet patients,demands.

D

I started out in life with few advantages. I didn't graduate from high school. I worked at menial (不体面的) jobs. I had limited education, limited skills and a limited future.

And then I began asking, \"Why are some people more successful than others?\" This question changed my life. Over the years, I have read thousands of books and articles on the subjects of success and achievement(成就). It seems that the reasons have been discussed and written about for more than two thousand years, in every possible way. One quality that most philosophers, teachers and experts agree on is the importance of self-discipline (自律). As Al Tomsik summarized it years ago, \"Success is tons of discipline.\"

Some years ago, I attended a conference in Washington. It was the lunch break and I was eating at a nearby food fair. The area was crowded and I sat down at the last open table by myself, even though it was a table for four. A few minutes later, an older gentleman and a younger woman who was his assistant came along carrying trays of food, obviously looking for a place to sit. With plenty of room at my table, I immediately invited the older

gentleman to join me. He was hesitant (犹豫), but I insisted. Finally, thanking me as he sat down, we began to chat over lunch.

It turned out that his name was Kop Kopmeyer. As it happened, I immediately knew who he was. He was a legend in the field of success and achievement. Kop Kopmeyer had written four large books, each of which contained 250 success principles that he had obtained from more than fifty years of research and study. I had read all four books from cover to cover, more than once.

After we had chatted for a while, I asked him the question that many people in this situation would ask, \"Of all the one thousand success principles that you have discovered, which do you think is the most important?”

He smiled at me, as if he had been asked this question many times, and replied, without hesitating, \"The most important success principle of all was stated by Thomas Huxley many years ago. He said, 'Do what you should do, when you should do it, whether you feel like it or not.'\"

He went on to say, \"There are 999 other success principles that I have found in my reading and experience, but without self-discipline, none of them work.\" 12. Why did the writer ask the question in Paragraph 2 ? A. Because he wasn't satisfied with himself. B. Because he was a person of self-discipline. C. Because he dislike those successful people. D. Because he wanted to share his idea on success.

13. What made the writer invite the older gentleman to join him ? A. His great kindness. B. The gentleman's fame. C. His eagerness for success. D. The gentleman's habit. 14. What are the four large books about ?

A. Personal changes B. The secret of success C. Sayings of wisdom D. The gentleman's manners. 15. What's the best title for the text ?

A. The Magic of Reading B. An Unexpected Conversation C. A Question that Changed MyLife D. The Power of Self-discipline 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）

Building a Lasting Social Relationship

We all know that friends are special people who we share our lives with, and who share their lives with us in return.___16___

According to research recently published in the Journal of Social and Personal Relationships, the key is to use “we-talk”.

Led byUniversityofCaliforniapsychologist Megan Robins and her colleagues, the researchers reviewed and analyzed 30 different studies involving over 5,000 participants.___17___

The word “we” moves people from an individual position into a partnership, which makes us more interdependent. “____18____Word use is a window into what people are thinking and feeling without asking them,” Robbins told Science Daily.

___19___The primary point is that interdependence may bring about supportive and relationship-centered behaviors and positive perceptions of the partner — especially important in times of stress and disagreement

Contrary to “we-talk”, there is “I-talk”, which refers to the frequent use of the first-person singular pronouns, such as “I”, “me” and “mine”, when writing or speaking. Earlier this year, researcher analyzed a set of data that came from 47,000 people inGermanyand theUS.____20____As you can see from the two studies, too much “I-talk” can make you feel depressed. But “we-talk” can encourage you to become more positive and create a chain effect of healthy interdependence with others.

So next time you are talking to a friend, try using more “we-talk”. You may find yourself feeling more positive — and the effect it will have on your friend will be positive as well.

A. Pronouns offer an insight into whether people see themselves as individuals or as part of a whole. B. If you are speaking in a person context, you’re speaking about something that’s of relevance to you. C. Their research also found that “we-talk” is helpful for resolving conflicts.

D. Self-centered people are found to be indifferent to many things in society and other people because all their concentration is only on themselves and their needs.

E. This analysis of “we-talk” suggested that the frequent use of “we” and “us” is linked to happier and healthier relationships.

F. They found that too much “I-talk” was an accurate linguistic marker for the likelihood that someone is feeling stressed or experiencing negative emotions.

G. But seeking friends and keeping the friendship going are never easy. 第二部分 语言运用（共两节，满分45分）
