I’m fat. I’m too skinny. I’d be happy if I were taller, shorter, had curly hair, straight hair, a smaller nose, bigger muscles, longer legs. Do any of these statements sound familiar? Do you often put yourself down? If so, you’re not alone. As a teen, you’re going through a ton of changes in your body. And as your body changes, so does your image(形象) of yourself. Lots of people have trouble getting used to it and this can affect their confidence. w w w.k s 5 u.c o m

Some people think they need to change how they look or act to feel good about themselves. But actually all you need to do is change the way you see your body and how you think about yourself.

The first thing to do is recognize that your body is your own, no matter what shape, size, or color it comes in. If you’re very worried about your weight or size, go to your doctor to check that things are OK. But it’s no one’s business but your own what your body is like—finally, you have to be happy with yourself. w_w w. k#s5_u.c o*m

Next, find which aspects(方面) of your appearance you can change and which you can’t change and need to accept— like their height, for example, or their shoe size.

If there are things about yourself that you want to change and can do this by making goals for yourself. For example, if you want to get fit, make a pan to exercise every day and eat nutritious foods. w w w.k s 5 u.c o m

When you hear negative comments coming from within yourself, tell yourself to stop. Try building your confidence by listing three things in your day that really gave you pleasure. It can be anything like the way the sun felt on your face, the sound of your favorite band, or the way someone laughed at your jokes.

A．most teens like to have a special body image

B．many teens can’t accept their body change easily

C．teens prefer to change their body image quickly

It is reasonable to say that every teenager can be affected by peer pressure(从众心理) at some point. Every day, in any high school, peer pressure has a major influence over the behavior of teenagers. It can be as subtle(微妙的) as being persuaded to be late for class or as extreme as a dangerous drug. Whether subtle or extreme, peer pressure can have damaging, some-times life changing, and even serious results.

“Teens don’t often consider the long-term results that some behavior can cause,” said Terri Price, a researcher. “Peer pressure can be very difficult to handle for many teens because of their fears of not fitting in.” Peer pressure has always been part of teen life, but teens experience it differently than former generations did in the past. Sources of peer pressure have increased because of the Internet and other electronic communications.

Recognizing peer pressure can be as simple as noticing that you have been asked to do something that you are not comfortable with. “Listen to your instinct(直觉), which is a sign for whether something is right or wrong. If it feels wrong, then most likely it is.” Says Price. w w w.k s 5 u.c o m

Teens are in a time of life when they are still discovering who they are. Many teens are influenced by peer pressure because of their insecurities. This can make them helpless especially when their selfcontrol is weak or they lack healthy support, causing them to take risky behavior or turn to unhealthy support.

Dealing with peer pressure is a topic of concern for teens. People can say, “Just say no,” but the truth is that the statement is easier said than done.

The underlined word “it” Paragraph 2 refers to_____. k#s5_u.c o*m

A．the Internet          B．teen life   

C．peer pressure        D．the fear of not fitting in

Why are teens easily influenced by peer pressure?

A．Because they don’t have the feeling of safety.

B．Because they have no sense of danger.

C．Because they need support for their health.

D．Because they have nobody to turn to when in trouble.

You can know whether a teen suffers peer pressure by watching ______.w_w w. k#s5_u.c

A．whether he often surfs the Internet   

B．whether he can get security

C．whether it is subtle or extreme      

D．whether he feels comfortable with it

According to the passage, we can know that dealing with peer pressure is______.

A．easy         B．hard          C．a new topic       D．an impossible task

 “There is very little in my life that is more personal and more important to me than comets!” the amateur David H. Levy told Terence Dickinson in an interview. “Not just discovering them but watching them, learning about them, writing about them, understanding what they do. It makes observing the sky intensely personal. I feel when I find a new comet a door has been opened and I have seen a slightly new aspect of nature. There is this object in the solar system that ― for a few minutes or a few hours ― only I know about. It is like trying to pry（打探）a secret out of nature. It is a very special feeling.” Ever since he was a child, David H. Levy has been fascinated by the night sky and the wonders it reveals to devoted watchmen. He developed a special feeling for comets before he reached his teens, though it was not until 1984 ― after nineteen years and more than nine hundred hours of combing the sky in search of them ― that he discovered his first one, from a small observatory that he had built in his backyard.

Since then, he has discovered or co-discovered twenty more, making him one of the world's most important comet hunters. His most celebrated find is periodic comet Shoemaker-Levy 9, which he made with the husband-and-wife comet-and-asteroid-hunting team Eugene and Carolyn Shoemaker. The comet's dramatic collision with Jupiter in July 1994, which constituted（组成）“the greatest planetary show in recorded history,” to quote Malcolm W. Browne of the New York Times, captivated（迷住） not only professional astronomers, but many amateurs. Although he is only an amateur astronomer ― he earns his living by lecturing and writing books and by working with project artists. They’re projects devoted to introducing astronomy to elementary school children ― he has won tremendous respect from his professional colleagues for his success in tracking down comets. “David H. Levy is one of those rare individuals blessed with the gift of discovery,” David Hartsel, who serves on the board of directors of the Richland Astronomical Society, in Ohio, has said. “Even rarer is his ability to let others share in the excitement and wonder of those discoveries through his writing and lectures.”

46. The primary purpose of this passage is to ________.

A. praise Levy for his contribution to the observation of comets.

B. show that an amateur can do things as well as a professional.

C. introduce to the readers David Levy as a professional astronomer.

D. demonstrate that strong interest is very important in helping one succeed in his life.

47. All the following are suggested in this passage as reasons that contribute to Levy's success as a respectable astronomer EXCEPT that ________.

A. he had his books published on astronomy

B. he worked on a project that is intended to introduce astronomy

C. he was born with the gift of the discovery of comets

D. he was highly praised by his colleagues for his unselfishness

48. According to David Hartsel, he most appreciates Levy’s ________.

A. gifted ability of comet hunting             C. curiosity to the sky and comets

B. ability of communicating his ideas          D. spirit of devotion to astronomy

49. Levy says that watching the sky is quite personal to him because________.

A. he has developed a very special affection for the sky

B. he can discover a secret out of nature

C. he has established a close relationship with the sky

D. he may have a personal talk with nature

50. It can be inferred from the passage that_______.

A. Levy's parents are astronomers                      B. Levy was born in the 1970s

C. Levy achieved his fame in the 1980s

D. Levy himself has discovered 21 comets altogether
