A University of lowa (UI) study found teenagers are far more sensitive than adults to the immediate effect or reward of their behaviors. The findings may help explain why the initial rush of texting may be more attractive for adolescents than the long-term pay off of studying.“For the teenager, the rewards are attractive.”says Professor Jatin Vaidya, an author of the study. “They draw adolescent. Sometimes, the rewards are a kind of motivation for them. Even when a behavior is no longer in a teenager’s best interest to continue, they will, because the effect of the reward is still there and lasts much longer in adolescents than in adults.”For parents, that means limiting distraction (分心的事情) so teenagers can make better choices. Take the homework and social media dilemma: At 9 p.m., shut off everything except a computer that has no access to Facebook or Twitter, the researchers advise. “I’m not saying they shouldn’t be allowed access to technology,”Vaidya says. But some help in netting their concentration is necessary for them so they can develop those impulse-control skills. ‘‘In their study, Vaidya and co-author Shaun Vecera note researchers generally believe teenagers are impulsive (冲动的), make bad decisions, and engage in risky behavior because the frontal lobes (额叶) of their brains are not fully developed. But the UI researchers wondered whether something more fundamental was going on with adolescents to cause behaviors independent of higher-level reasoning.“We wanted to try to understand the brain’s reward system how it change from childhood to adulthood,”Says Vaidya, who adds the reward character in the human brain is easier than decision-making. “We’ve been trying to understand the reward process in adolescence and whether there is more to adolescence behavior than an under-developed frontal lobe,”he adds. For their study, the researchers persuaded 40 adolescents, aged 13 and 16, and 40 adults, aged 20 and 35 to participate.In the future, researchers hope to look into the psychological and neurological (神经学上的) aspects of their results.24. What does the passage mainly tell us?A. The initial rush of texting is less attractive for adolescents than the long-term pay off of studying.B. Always, rewards are attractive to teenagers.C. Resistance can be controlled well by adolescents.D. Getting rewards is the greatest motivation for adolescents to study.25. Which statement agrees with Vaidya’s idea?A. The influence of the reward is weak in adolescents.B. Parents should help children in making decisions.C. Children should have access to the Internet.D. Children need help in refocusing their attention.26. What result does teenagers’brain underdevelopment lead to?A. Doing things after some thought.B. Making good decisions.C. Joining in dangerous actions.D. Escaping risky behavior.27. How did the researchers carry out their study?A. By making a comparison of brain examinations.B. By examining adults’brain.C. By examining teenagers’brain.D. By building the brain’s reward system.C“Birds”and “airports”are two words that, paired together, don’t normally paint the most harmonious picture. So it really raises some eyebrows when China announces plans to build an airport that is for birds.Described as the world’s first-ever bird airport, the proposed Lingang Bird Sanctuary (保护区) in the northern coastal city of Tianjin is, of course, not an actual airport. Rather, it’s a wetland preserve specifically designed to accommodate hundreds—even thousands—of daily takeoffs and landings by birds traveling along the East Asian-Australasian Flyway. Over 50 species of migratory (迁徙的) water birds, some endangered, will stop and feed at the protected sanctuary before continuing their long journey along the flyway.Located on a former landfill site, the 150-acre airport is also open to human travelers. (Half a million visitors are expected annually.) However, instead of duty-free shopping, the main attraction for non-egg-laying creatures at Tianjin’s newest airport will be a green-roofed education and research center, a series of raised “observation platforms”and a network of scenic walking and cycling paths totaling over 4 miles.“The proposed Bird Airport will be a globally significant sanctuary for endangered migratory bird species, while providing new green lungs for the city of Tianjin.”Adrian McGregor of an Australian landscape architecture firm explained of the design. Frequently blanketed in smog so thick that it has shut down real airports, Tianjin is a city—China’s fourth most populous—that would certainly benefit from a new pair of healthy green lungs.28. The underlined phrase “non-egg-laying creatures”in Paragraph 3 refers to?A. Designers.B. Visitors.C. Endangered water birds.D. Planes.29. What do we know about the airport according to the passage?A. It functions as an actual airport and a wetland preserve.B. It is located on a 150-acre landfill site.C. It provides migratory birds with food and shelter.D. People cannot watch birds up close here.30. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. Tianjin’s air quality will improve thanks to the airport.B. Tianjin will win worldwide fame in the future.C. The airport will become a permanent home for birds.D. Tianjin will be able to accommodate more people.31. What is this passage mainly about?A. Airports shut down and open up.B. Airports turn into green lungs.C. China is to open the first Bird Airport.D. Birds are no longer enemies to airports.DTeenagers who check social media for several hours a day are at the risk of developing ADHD (多动症), a study has concluded.The research team, from the University of Southern California, tracked 2,600 teenagers aged 15 and 16. They asked them how many times they checked their phones and other digital devices for various reasons, and then monitored them for symptoms of ADHD. After two years, those who had checked their phones the most often were twice as likely as those who checked the least often to show signs of ADHD.Writing in the JAMA medical journal, the scientists said, “Modern media devices immediately inform users when new text messages, social media postings, or videogame play invitations arrive. Exposure to such information may draw attention away from important tasks. Frequent distraction could interrupt the development of constant attention and organization skills.”They believe constant access to instant entertainment also has an impact. Researcher Professor Adam Leventhal said all previous research had focused on the link between ADHD and televisions. “What’s new is that previous studies on this topic were done many years ago, when social media, mobile phones, tablets and mobile apps didn’t exist. We can say with confidence that teens who are exposed to higher levels of digital media are significantly more likely to develop ADHD symptoms in the future,”he said.Leventhal believes the findings help fill a gap in understanding how new mobile media devices and seemingly limitless content pose a mental health risk for children. And the findings serve as a warning.British scientists welcomed the findings. But Professor Andy Przybylski of the Oxford Internet Institute said, “The study relies on survey responses provided by the students in question. It is not clear if teachers or parents would rate the children similarly or if the sel-reported measure of digital screen use is related with either actual behavior or higher quality survey items.”32. How did the researchers conduct the study?A. By monitoring 2,600 teenagers with ADHD.B. By tracking the participants for two years.C. By analyzing data from previous researches online.D. By controlling different teens’time spent on social media.33. What does Leventhal think of the exposure to higher levels of digital media?A. It will cause diverse ADHD symptoms.B. It will create higher ADHD risks.C. It will weaken teenagers’confidence.D. It will have a major influence on organization skills.34. What does Professor Andy Przybylski think of the study?A. It provides a better understanding of the media.B. It should have focused on parents’responses.C. Its findings are not reliable enough.D. It’s a breakthrough in this field.35. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. The use of digital media is on the riseB. Teens are increasingly exposed to ADHDC. Heavy use of social media may increase ADHD risksD. Teens’exposure to modern media calls more attention第二节（共5小题；每小题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。
