11．Students who date （约会） in middle school have significantly worse study skills，are four times more likely to drop out of school and report twice as much alcohol and tobacco use than their single classmates，according to new research from the University of Georgia．
"Romantic relationships are a symbol of adolescence（青春期），but very few studies have examined how adolescents are different in the development of these relationships．"said Pamela Orpinas，study author and professor in the College of Public Health．
Orpinas followed a group of 624students over a seven-year period from 6th to 12th grade．Each year，the group of students completed a survey indicating whether they had dated and reported the frequency of different behaviors，including the use of drugs and alcohol．Their teachers completed questionnaires （调查表） about the students'academic efforts．He found some students never or hardly ever reported dating from middle to high school，and these students had the best study skills according to their teachers．Other students dated infrequently in middle school but increased the frequency of dating in high school．
"At all points in time，teachers rated the students who reported the lowest frequency of dating as having the best study skills and the students with the highest dating as having the worst study skills，"according to the journal article．Study skills refer to behaviors that lead to academic success such as doing work for extra credit，being well organized，finishing homework，working hard and reading assigned chapters．
"Dating a classmate may have the same emotional complications of dating a co-worker，"Orpinas said，"When the couple break up，they have to continue to see each other in class and perhaps witness the ex-partner dating someone else．It is reasonable to think this could be linked to depression and divert （转移） attention from studying．"
"Dating should not be considered a ceremony of growth in middle school．"Orpinas concluded．

18．It was fifteen past nine as Marie hurried into the office building where she was going to work．Her bus had inched along through heavy morning traffic，making her a few minutes late for her very first job．She decided to start out half an hour earlier the next day．
Once inside the lobby，she had to stand at the elevators and wait several minutes before she could get on one going to the sixth floor．When she finally reached the office marked"Smith Enterprises"，she knocked at the door nervously and waited．There was no reply．She tapped on the door again，but still there was no answer．From inside the next office，she could hear the sound of voices，so she opened the door and went in．
Although she was sure it was the same office she had been in two weeks before when she had the interview with Mr．Smith，it looked quite different now．In fact，it hardly looked like an office at all．The employees were just standing around chatting and smoking．In the front of the room，somebody must have just told a good joke，she thought，because there was a loud burst of laughter as she came in．For a moment she had thought they were laughing at her．
Then one of the men looked at his watch，clapped his hands and said something to the others．Quickly they all went to their desks and，in a matter of seconds，everyone was hard at work．No one paid any attention to Marie．Finally she went up to the man who was sitting at the desk nearest to the door and explained that this was her first day in the office．Hardly looking up from his work，he told her to have a seat and wait for Mr．Smith，who would arrive at any moment．Then Marie realized that the day's work in the office began just before Mr．Smith arrived．Later she found out that he lived in Connecticut and came into Manhattan on the same train every morning，arriving in the office at 9：35，so that his staff knew exactly when to start working．

16．Check out our tsunami（海啸）facts and learn some interesting information related to these great walls of water that can cause so much destruction．Find out what causes tsunamis and read about some notable recent examples of tsunamis that have occurred around the globe．
Tsunamis are huge waves of water that are usually caused by earthquakes or volcanic eruptions．
As a tsunami approaches the shore，water may move back from the coast．If it is shallow enough，the water may be pulled back hundreds of metres．If you are in the area，observing this is a good indication that a tsunami is on the way．
Regions in tsunami danger zones often have warning systems in place to give people as much time to evacuate（撤离）as possible．
When tsunamis hit shallow water（often near the coast），they slow down but increase in height．
An earthquake in the Indian Ocean off Indonesia in December 2004caused a tsunami that killed over 200，000people in 14countries．
In March 2011，the Tohoku earthquake off the eastern coast of Japan caused a tsunami that was a major factor in the death of over 15，000people．
The tsunami waves created by the Tohoku earthquake reached heights of over 40metres（131feet）in mine areas，wiping out coastal towns and causing a number of nuclear accidents．
The Japanese word"tsunami"literally means"harbour wave"．
Tsunamis are sometimes referred to as tidal waves but this term has fallen out of favour because tsunamis are not related to tides．
21．Which of the following shows a tsunami is coming soon？B
A．An earthquake takes place．
B．The water near the shore is pulled back．
C．The water marches towards the coast．
D．The water near the shore is very shallow．
