A peer is a person who is about the same age as you. Peers affect your life, whether you know it or not, just by spending time with you.
Peers can have a good effect on one another. Maybe another student in your science class taught you an easy way to remember the planets in solar system. Maybe you got others excited about your new favorite book and now everyone’s reading it.
However, sometimes peers affect one another in another way. For example, one kid in school might try to get another to cut class with him, your soccer friend might try to persuade you to be mean to another player and never pass her the ball, or a kid in the neighborhood might want you to shoplift with him. Some kids give in to peer pressure because they want to be liked, to fit in, or because they worry that other kids may make fun of them if they don’t go along with the group. Others may go along because they are curious to try something new that others are doing. The idea that “everyone’s doing it” may influence some kids to leave their better judgments or their common senses behind.
Peer pressure can be extremely strong and hard to get rid of. Experiments have shown how peer pressure can influence someone to change her/ his mind from what she/ he knows for sure is a correct answer to the incorrect answer-just because everyone else gives the incorrect answer! That holds true for people of any age in peer pressure situations.
It can be hard to walk away from peer pressure, but it can be done. Paying attention to your own feelings and beliefs about what is right and wrong can help you know the right thing to do. Inner strength and self-confidence can help you stand firm, walk away and resist doing something when you know better.
68. What is the best title for this passage?

69. The underlined word “shoplift” in Paragraph 3 probably means “________”.

C. steal in shops D. take the lift upstairs in shops
70. The writer will NOT agree that ________.
A. only children change their correct answers to incorrect ones because of peer pressure
B. peers have an effect on one another
C. peer pressure can be got rid of
D. peers will believe in themselves if there are other peers who agree with them

Men and woman define(解释)“best friend”in the same way—a person who is always there when you need them. Your best friend is someone who shares your happiness and sadness.
Many things can help establish a best friendship,including the age of the people,the situation in which they meet,and how they satisfy each other’s needs. 1.
A best friend makes you feel safe and comfortable. You never have to explain yourself to best friends because they understand you so well. 2. You can cry too hard or laugh too loud and never worry about what they’ll think. Best friends will give you advice if you want it and encouragement if you need it, but they will not judge you or make you feel sorry for your behavior. 3. That means complete love, without any limits.
Best friends are loyal(忠诚) and reliable. A best friend is a person who you can tell your most embarrassing personal secrets to. 4. Best friends can also be completely honest with you , but in the most gentle way.
5.They love you because they want to, not because they have to. For many people, a best friend becomes the brother or sister they’d always wanted but never had.
A.You can be exactly who you are.
B.A best friend gives you unconditional love.
C.“Safety” is an important word among friends.
D.A best friend is somebody you call if you get a flat tire.
E.Finally, best friends are the family you choose.
F.She/He won’t repeat your secrets to anyone else.
G.But the main themes that define a best friend are similar for many people.

During adolescence(青春期), peers(同龄人) play a large part in a young person's life and typically replace family as the center of a teen's social activities. Some kids give in to peer pressure because they want to be liked or because they worry that other kids may make fun of them if they don't go along with the group. Others may go along because they are curious to try something new that others are doing. The idea that "everyone's doing it" may influence some kids to leave their better judgment, or their common sense, behind.
As children grow, develop, and move into early adolescence, contacts with one's peers and the attraction of peer identification (认同)increases. As pre-adolescents begin rapid physical, emotional and social changes, they begin to question adult standards and the need for parental guidance. They find it good to turn for advice to friends who understand— friends who are in the same position themselves. By trying new things and testing their ideas with their peers, there is less fear of being laughed at.
There are two levels of peer pressure. The first is in the large group: for most teens a school or a youth group are examples. This is the situation that gets the most attention. The second is in the close relationship with one or several best friends. This is the situation that is sometimes disregarded. The large group puts a general pressure on its members. It sets the standard for clothing, music, entertainment, and "political correctness". The pressure can be avoided by keeping quiet or by putting on the appearance of agreement.
1.Why can’t some children follow their common sense?
A. Because they want to be liked by everybody.
B. Because they don’t want to make fun of others.
C. Because they are curious about their new friends.
D. Because they think all the children will do the same.
2.When in pre-adolescence, who may children ask for suggestions?
A. Parents B. Teachers C. Friends D. Classmates
3.Which word can replace the underlined word disregarded in the last paragraph?
A. unnoticed B. mentioned C. disagreed D. avoided
4.What might be discussed in the following paragraph?
A. The reasons of peer pressure.
B. The advantages of peer pressure.
C. Peer pressure from close friends.
D. Peer pressure from a youth group.

As children enter their teens, they usually begin to pay more attention to their peers (同龄人) or friends. Peer pressure (压力) can be direct or indirect, but it is almost always present. Learning to deal with peer pressure makes a teen mature (成熟的), and able to get along well with others.
Bad peer pressure is when teens feel pressured to do something that they know is wrong, such as smoking, drinking, or drugs (毒品), and it can remain (保持) with them into adulthood. This is the main reason teens have to learn how to deal with it.
Some of the things you can do to deal with peer pressure include:
● Choose friends who share your values. Good friends use positive (正面的) peer pressure to help you be your best self.
● Keep away from situations where people are doing things you don’t want to do.
● Think about your reasons for doing things. Are they good reasons? Are you being true to yourself and your values?
● Practice ways of saying no, giving excuses if necessary.
● Talk to your parents, or other trusted adults, about the kinds of peer pressure you face, and listen to their advice.
● Let the adults know when you need help to get out of a bad situation, and don’t know what to do about it.
Remember that if just one teen stands up to (对抗) peer pressure, usually others will join him or her. Learning to deal with peer pressure will make you confident and mature.
1.According to the passage, which of the following is true?
A. Peer pressure includes direct and indirect pressure.
B. Peer pressure comes from smoking, drinking and using drugs.
C. Teens facing pressure can’t tell right from wrong.
D. Teens who face pressure are more mature than those who don’t
2.Teens should learn to deal with peer pressure mainly because ______.
A. it can keep them from making serious mistakes
B. it can influence them even when they have grown up
C. learning to deal with it can help them get along well with others
D. learning to deal with it can make them mature and confident
3.According to the passage, teens should ______.
A. stay away from people who don’t share their values
B. have good reasons for anything they do
C. say no more often than yes
D. ask adults they trust for help
4.Which column(专栏) of a magazine may the passage be from?

Can dogs and cats get along well in the same home? People who are thinking about getting a dog as a friend for their cat are worried that they will fight. A recent research has found that if the cat is taken back home before the dog, and if they are introduced when still young (less than 6 months for cats, a year for dogs), it is highly probable that the two pets will get along swimmingly. In two-thirds of the homes cats and dogs have a good relationship.
However, it wasn’t all sweetness and light. There was a reported coldness between the cat and dog in 25% of the homes, while aggression(侵略,好斗) and fighting were found in 10% of the homes. One reason for this is probably that some of their body languages are just different. For example, when a cat turns its head away it means aggression, while a dog doing the same means submission(顺从).
In homes with cats and dogs living peacefully, researchers found a surprising behavior. They are learning how to talk each other’s language. It is a surprise that cats can learn how to talk “Dog”, and dogs can learn how to talk “Cat”.
What’s interesting is that both cats and dogs have appeared to become smarter. They can learn to read each other’s body languages, suggesting that the two may have more in common than was expected. Once familiar with each other’s body language, cats and dogs can play together, and enjoy sleeping together on the sofa.
The importance of this research on cats and dogs may go beyond pets — to people who don’t get along well, including neighbors, colleagues at work, and even countries. If cats and dogs can learn to get along, surely people have a good chance.
1.Some cats and dogs may fight when ________.
A. they are cold to each other
B. they look away from each other
C. they misunderstand each other’s body languages
D. they are introduced at an early age
2.What is found surprising about cats and dogs?
A. They eat and sleep together.
B. They watch each other’s behaviors.
C. They learn to speak each other’s language.
D. They know something from each other’s voices.
3.It is suggested in Paragraph 4 that cats and dogs ________.
A. have common interests
B. are less different than was thought
C. have a common body language
D. are not so smart as was expected
4.What can we human beings learn from cats and dogs?
A. We should learn to get along well with others.
B. We should know more about animals.
C. We should live in peace with animals.
D. We should learn more body languages.
