213610. （2023•莲湖区•高一下期中） A new study from North Carolina State University found that biology textbooks have done a poor job of including material related to climate change.For example，the study found that most biology textbooks published（出版） in the 2010s included less information about climate change than they did in the previous decade—despite significant advances in our under-standing of how climate change is influencing ecosystems and the environment.
   "In short，we found biology textbooks are failing to share enough information about climate change，which is a generation-defining topic in the life sciences，"says Jennifer Landin，author of the study."These books are the baseline texts for helping students understand the science of life on Earth，yet they are providing very little information about a phenomenon that is having a great impact on habitats，ecosystems，agriculture—almost every aspect（方面） of life on Earth."
   For the study，researchers investigated coverage of climate change in 57 college biology textbooks published between 1970 and 2019.The researchers found climate coverage has varied greatly over those five decades and that the amount of climate coverage in textbooks fell off in the 2010s.In addition to length，the nature of the content has also changed greatly over time.
   "One of the most troubling findings was that textbooks are devoting less space to ad-dressing climate solutions now than they did in the 1990s—even as they focus more on the effects of climate change，"Landin says."That suggests to students that nothing can be done，which is both wildly misleading and contributes to a sense of fatalism（宿命论） regarding climate change."
   "We are hoping that this study will serve as a wake-up call for publishers and instructors.We need to do a much better job of putting climate change into our courses if we want to pre-pare students to understand the role that climate change is playing in shaping life on Earth and how we study it，"Landin says.

D．Show the content of textbooks published in the 2010s.
（2）What is the problem of biology textbooks according to Landin？
A．No enough material about climate change.
B．Not covering every aspect of life on Earth.
C．Providing little new information about biology.
D．No generation-defining topics in the textbooks.
（3）How did the researchers conduct the study？

201922. （2024•临潼区•二模）     For lots of kids，toddlerhood（幼儿期）is an important time for friendship.Studieow that the earlier kids learn to form positive relationships，the better they are at relating to others as teenagers and adults.Playing together also helps these kids practice social behaviors，such as kindness，sharing，and cooperation.
    Even so，how quickly your child develops into a social creature may also depend on his temperament.Some toddles are very social，but others are shy.In addition，the way that toddlers demonstrate that they like other children is markedly different from what adults think of as expressions of friendship.Research at Ohio State University in Columbus found that a toddler's way of saying "I like you" during play is likely to come in the form of copying a friend's behavior.
    This seemingly unusual way of demonstrating fondness can result in unpleasant behavior.Regardless of how much they like a playmate，they may still grab his toys，refuse to share，and get bossy.But experts say that this is a normal and necessary part of friendship for kids this age.Through play experiences，toddlers learn social rules.That's why it's so important to take an active role in your toddler's social encounters by setting limits and offering frequent reminders of what they are.When you establish these guidelines，explain the reasons behind them.
    Begin by helping your child learn sympathy （"Ben is crying.What's making him so sad？"），then suggest how he could resolve the problem（"Maybe he would feel better if you let him play the ball."）.When your child shares or shows empathy（同理心）toward a friend，praise him（"Ben stopped crying!You made him feel better."）.
    Another way to encourage health y social interaction is by encouraging kids to use words—not fists—to express how they feel.It's also important to be mindful of how your child's personality affects playtime.Kids are easy to get angry when they're sleepy or hungry，so schedule playtime when they're refreshed.

（1）What does the underlined word "temperament" in Paragraph 2 probably mean？
A.Appearances.
B.Ages.
C.Characters.
D.Interests.
（2）What does it indicate when toddlers copy their playmates' behavior？
A.They are fond of their playmates.
B.They are interested in acting.
C.They are shy with the strangers.
D.They are tired of playing games.
（3）What does the author suggest parents do for their kids？
A.Find them suitable playmates.
B.Design games for them.
C.Play together with them.
D.Help them understand social rules.
（4）What is the function of the quoted statements in Paragraph 4？
A.Explaining concepts.
B.Giving examples.
C.Providing evidence.
D.Making comparisons.

205208. （2021•长安区一中•高一上期末） What you do after studying could play a big part in how well you learn and remember.Today on Education Tips，we will explore two no-cost ways that can help you improve your learning：wakeful rest and sleep.
   When many students finish studying，they often go straight to another activity.Perhaps they look at their phone or computer.They might even play a video game or watch television.But research suggests that resting after your study may help you remember what you have studied.
     The basic idea is this：by stopping your activity after the study，your brain gets a chance to rest.Resting is difficult when you are playing computer games.
   While this might sound unusual to you，many studies have explored the benefits of resting after learning---which is called "wakeful rest".
   A 2019 study found that both young and older adults were able to better remember information they learned after doing wakeful rest.
   If you want to give "wakeful rest" a try，here are a few simple things to do.Rest quietly for five to ten minutes.Do not look at your phone，read stories or play games.It is really that easy!
   Besides wakeful rest，sleep is also important for learning.The Division of Sleep Medicine at Harvard Medical School （HMS） notes that sleep helps people to learn in two ways.A report on the school's website explains that "a sleep-deprived（剥夺）person cannot focus attention well and therefore cannot learn well".It also says，"Sleep itself helps us to memorize and that memorizing is very important for learning new information. "
   The National Sleep Foundation（NSF）suggests that adults between the ages of 20 and 64 get between 7 and 9 hours of sleep per day.Teenagers may need a little bit more，and people over the age of 65 may need a little less.
   Try to get some "wakeful rest" after a study.Then try to get a good night's sleep.That's it---a simple，no-cost way to help you remember what you learn.

（1）What is paragraph 3 mainly about？
A．The importance of sleep.
B．The good ways to get a rest.
C．The reason for having a rest.
D．The types of resting activities.
（2）Which activity might be recommended shortly after studying？
A．Reading a newspaper.
B．Playing a video game.
C．Sitting there doing nothing.
D．Having a nice sleep at night.
（3）How long should teenagers sleep each day according to NSF？
A．Less than 7 hours.
B．Just 7 hours.
C．No more than 9 hours.
D．Around 9 hours.
（4）What can be a suitable title for the text？
A．Low-cost Tips on Working
B．What to Do After Your Study
C．Why Do We Need to Have a Good Sleep？
D．How Long Should We Rest After Learning？

201969. （2023•长安区•一模） As a society we might want to rethink the time and money spent on education，so that these resources can benefit a greater percentage of the population.Ideally，both high schools and colleges can prepare individuals for the ever-changing roles that are likely to be expected of them.
   High school degrees offer far less in the way of preparation for work than they might，or than many other nations currently offer，creating a growing skills gap in our economy.We encourage students to go on to college whether they are prepared or not，or have a clear sense of purpose or interest，and now have the highest college dropout rate in the world.
   We might look to other countries for models of how high schools can offer better training，as well as the development of a work ethic（美德） and the intellectual skills needed for continued learning and development.I recommend Harvard's 2011"Pathways to Prosperity"report for more attention to the"forgotten half"（those who do not go on to college） and ideas about how to address this issue.
   Simultaneously，the liberal arts become more important than ever.In a knowledge economy where professional roles change rapidly and many college students are preparing for positions that may not even exist yet，the skill set needed is one that prepares them for change and continued learning.
   Learning to express ideas well in both writing and speech，knowing how to find information，and knowing how to do research are all-solid background skills for a wide variety of roles，and such training is more important than any particular major in a liberal arts college.We need to continue to value broad preparation in thinking skills that will serve for a lifetime.
   Students also need to learn to work independently and to make responsible decisions.The lengthening path to adulthood appears exacerbated（恶化） by parental involvement in the college years.Given the rising investment in college education，parental concern is not surprising，but learning where and when to intervene will help students take more ownership of the outcomes of these increasingly costly educations.

（1）What kind of education does the author think is ideal？
A．It encourages students to learn throughout their lives.
B．It benefits the great majority of the general population.
C．It prepares students to meet the future needs of society.
D．It ensures that students' expectations are successfully fulfilled.
（2）What does the author say is the problem with present high school education？
A．Ignoring the needs of those who don't go to college.
B．Teaching skills to be used right after graduation only.
C．Giving little attention to those having difficulty learning.
D．Creating the highest dropout rate in the developed world.
（3）What characterizes a knowledge economy according to the passage？
A．Students majoring in liberal arts usually have difficulty securing a job.
B．New positions are constantly created that require people to keep learning.
C．People have to receive higher education to qualify for a professional position.
D．Colleges find it hard to teach students how to cope with the changing economy.
（4）What does the author think a liberal arts college should focus on？
A．Practical skills urgently needed in current society.
B．Solid background knowledge in a particular field.
C．Useful thinking skills for advanced academic research.
D．Basic skills needed for change and lifelong learning.

204260. （2023•长安区•高一上期末）     Math anxiety is far from uncommon，but too often，those who fear the subject simply avoid it.Research from the University of Chicago offers evidence for the link between math anxiety and avoidance.
    Studying nearly 500 adults through a computer program called the Choose-And-Solve Task （CAST），the researchers gave participants （参加者） a choice between math and word problems labeled "easy" and "hard".The easy problems were always worth two cents，while the hard problems were worth up to six cents.They also informed participants the computer task would change the questions in the process of testing based on their abilities，enabling them to handle about 70% of the hard problems.
    Although participants attempted hard word problems when promised higher monetary prizes，they rarely chose to do the same for math problems. "We found we couldn't even pay math-anxious individuals to do difficult math problems，" researcher Rozek says.
    The findings also contradict a widely held belief that feeling anxious about math and avoiding math-related problems is rooted in being bad at math. "If you take two students good at math，the math-anxious one will do worse at math than the one that isn't anxious."
    Such a mentality does more than stopping people from taking calculus courses or pursuing a career in STEM.It can affect everyday interactions with math-like leaving a tip in a restaurant.But all is not lost. "Reframing their anxiety from negative to positive could help math-anxious people re-engage.Giving those anxious about sitting exams guidance may lead them to perform better.Telling them if you're anxious，this is your body getting you ready to perform and focus，" Rozek says. "Another path may be to create early positive experiences around math.For example，telling stories featuring math and tackling problems around the story may be helpful." he adds.

（1）What does the University of Chicago offer evidence for？
A．The advantages of math anxiety.
B．The link between math anxiety and avoidance.
C．The importance of math.
D．The link between anxiety and study.
（2）What is the second paragraph mainly about？
A．How the study was organized.
B．Why people chose easy problems.
C．Who participated in the study.
D．What the result was.
（3）What is a common misunderstanding about math anxiety according to Paragraph 4？
A．Math anxiety is the cause of math avoidance.
B．Math anxiety causes people to be bored of math.
C．Math anxiety is a complex phenomenon in life.
D．Math anxiety results from poor math performance.
（4）Which of the following statements will Rozek agree with？
A．Reframing math anxiety from negative to positive is impossible.
B．People with math anxiety should pay attention to math less.
C．People can deal with math anxiety through proper ways.
D．People with math anxiety won't perform better.

213582. （2023•铁一中学•高二下期中）     In the digital age，it has become easy for students to find and copy published material.Copying another person's writing without giving them credit is called plagiarism.Universities in the U.S.have rules for avoiding plagiarism.But learning to correctly follow these rules can be difficult for some international students.
   Copyright law protects original works of authorship including books，movies，images and artworks.However，the law permits the unlicensed use for activities including comment，education and research.Therefore，students can include a small part of copyrighted works in their writing and research if they provide credit，or citation （引文），to the creators of the works.Many universities even urge students to give credit to what they get from conversations with professors or other students.Harvard even warns students about copying themselves.That is，they cannot hand in the same work for more than one class without the permission of their instructors.
   It is easy for professors to know whether a student has plagiarized.First，there are computer programs that compare students' papers to large databases of published writing.The programs can identify whether students have copied published writing.Second，if English is not a student's first language，a professor might recognize a change in vocabulary and writing style.The punishment for plagiarism can vary.Professors could simply warn a student not to do it again，lower their grade，or they may fail the student in that class.In more extreme cases，a student may be temporarily banned from school.
   There are free tools students can use.Zotero is a free，open-source program that helps organize all the research a student may use.For example，it can automatically create citations and combine them into a list.The Purdue OWL is another free resource.Many universities also have writing centers where students can learn the citation rules.And another way is to read published papers and pay attention to how information is presented.Studentould observe when and how citations are used，which can help them learn the rules of citations.

（1）What must students do when using a small part of copyrighted works？
A．Have a conversation with professors.
B．Ask for permission from the authors.
C．Offer credit to the original creators.
D．Explain the purpose of using them.
（2）How can professors know if their students are plagiarizing？
A．By making a specific comparison.
B．By recording the students' learning experience.
C．By learning the students' first language.
D．By researching into the database of writing.
（3）What does the author want to stress in the last paragraph？
A．The tips on when citations are used.
B．The ways of making a citation safe.
C．The rules of using free resource.
D．The free resources on the website.
（4）What is the best title of this text？
A．Learning Plagiarism in the Digital Age
B．Commenting on Students' Plagiarism
C．Realizing the Influence of Plagiarism
D．Following Rules to Avoid Plagiarism

212914. （2024•周至四中•高二下期中） Over the past decades，experts have done a considerable amount of research to explore different ways to encourage children's learning.Especially，there has been a common focus on how physical activity，separated from the learning activities，can improve children's learning.However，there has been less of a focus aimed at the potential of integrating （合并） physical activity into the learning activities.
   Researchers from the University of Copenhagen conducted the Basketball Mathematics study at five Danish primary and elementary schools.The main purpose of it was to develop a learning activity that integrates basketball and mathematics and examine how it might affect children's motivation for mathematics.
756 children from 40 different classes participated in the project，where about half of them — once a week for six weeks — had Basketball Mathematics during gym class，while the other half played basketball without mathematics.
   "During classes with Basketball Mathematics，the children had to collect numbers and perform calculations associated with various basketball exercises.An example could be counting how many times they could sink a basket from three meters away vs at a one-meter distance，and adding up the numbers.Both the math and basketball elements could be adjusted to suit the children's levels，as well as being adjusted for whether it was addition，multiplication or some other operations that needed to be practiced，" explains Linn Damsgaard，a leading researcher.
   The resultowed that children's motivation for math integrated with basketball was 16% higher compared to classroom math learning.Children also experienced a 14% increase in self-determination compared with classroom teaching.Meanwhile Basketball Mathematics improved their math confidence.
   "We are planning to do research to examine whether the Basketball Mathematics model can strengthen performance in mathematics.Once we have the final results，we hope that they will inspire school teachers and principals to prioritize （优先处理） more physical activity and movement in such subjects.Eventually，we hope to succeed in putting these tools into school system and teacher education，" says Associate Professor Jacob Wienecke.

（1）What is the purpose of paragraph 1？
A．To show the advantage of the study.
B．To introduce a way to raise math grades.
C．To conduct a review of past research.
D．To explain the reason for the study.
（2）What can we learn about the study？
A．It tailored activities to different kids.
B．Kids were divided into 40 groups.
C．It required kids to do math after playing basketball.
D．Kids couldn't enjoy basketball in the process.
（3）What effect does basketball have on the participants？
A．More motivation for exercise.
B．A gain in desire to learn math.
C．More confidence in basketball.
D．A rise in determination to learn.
（4）How does Jacob Wienecke expect the study to help educators？
A．Make math learning easier.
B．Inspire students' math confidence.
C．Build physical activity into teaching.
D．Notice the benefits of physical exercise.

203304. （2016•西工大附中•十模） Two friends have an argument that breaks up their friendship forever，even though neither one can remember how the whole thing got started．Such sad events happen over and over in high schools across the country．In fact，according to an official report on youth violence，"In our country today，the greatest threat to the lives of children and adolescents is not disease or starvation or abandonment，but the terrible reality of violence"．Given that this is the case，why aren't students taught to manage conflict the way they are taught to solve math problems，drive cars，or stay physically fit？
First of all，students need to realize that conflict is unavoidable．A report on violence among middle school and high school students indicates that most violent incidents between students begin with a relatively minor insult （侮辱）．For example，a fight could start over the fact that one student eats a peanut butter sandwich each lunchtime．Laughter over the sandwich can lead to insults，which in turn can lead to
violence．The problem isn't in the sandwich，but in the way students deal with the conflict．
Once students recognize that conflict is unavoidable，they can practice the golden rule of conflict resolution （解决）：stay calm．Once the student feels calmer，he or she should choose words that will calm the other person down as well．Rude words，name-calling，and accusation only add fuel to the emotional fire．On the other hand，soft words spoken at a normal sound level can put out the fire before it explodes out of control．
After both sides have calmed down，they can use another key strategy for conflict resolution：listening．Listening allows the two sides to understand each other．One person should describe his or her side，and the other person should listen without interrupting．Afterward，the listener can ask non-threatening questions to clarify the speaker's position．Then the two people should change roles．
Finally，students need to consider what they are hearing．This doesn't mean trying to figure out what's wrong with the other person．It means understanding what the real issue is and what both sides are trying to accomplish．For example，a shouting match over a peanut butter sandwich might happen because one person thinks the other person is unwilling to try new things．Students need to ask themselves questions such as these：How did this start？What do I really want？What am I afraid of？As the issue becomes clearer，the conflict often simply becomes smaller．Even if it doesn't，careful thought helps both sides figure out a mutual solution．
There will always be conflict in schools，but that doesn't mean there needs to be violence．After students in Atlanta started a conflict resolution program，according to Educators for Social Responsibility，"64 percent of the teachers reported less physical violence in the classroom；75 percent of the teachers reported an increase in student cooperation；and 92 percent of the students felt better about themselves"．
Learning to resolve conflicts can help students deal with friends，teachers，parents，bosses，and coworkers．In that way，conflict resolution is a basic life skill that should be taught in schools across the country．
（1）This article is mainly about        ．
A．the lives of school children
B．the cause of arguments in schools
C．how to analyze youth violence
D．how to deal with school conflicts
（2）From Paragraph 2 we can learn that        ．
A．violence is more likely to occur at lunchtime
B．a small conflict can lead to violence
C．students tend to lose their temper easily
D．the eating habit of a student is often the cause of a fight
（3）Why do students need to ask themselves the questions stated in Paragraph 5？
A．To find out who is to blame．
B．To get ready to try new things．
C．To make clear what the real issue is．
D．To figure out how to stop the shouting match．
（4）After the conflict resolution program was started in Atlanta，it was found that        ．
A．there was a decrease in classroom violence
B．there was less student cooperation in the classroom
C．more teachers felt better about themselves in schools

205621. （2019•蓝田县•高二下期末） As an oceanographer（海洋学家），I've spent many years developing robots to explore the ocean，and now we're putting that technology to use in our JASON Project，a program that's designed to inspire students and get them interested in science，technology，engineering and mathematics．In theaters throughout the country，we bring kids together and send back to them on large screens our live explorations of large areas of the globe．Not only are the kids observers，but they can operate robots moving across the area while broadcasting images back to them．The kids have the sensation（感受）of really being at the site with us．
   I believe advances in robot technology will one day be the key to a new kind of travel．In the next 10 or 15 years，people will have rooms in their houses that will be able to simulate（模拟） other environment．I like to call this rooms "home domes"-small theaters with screens and advanced equipment that can reproduce the sights，sounds，smells，and feel of a desert or a forest．Hand in hand with these rooms，I can see a market for travel robots located in countries around the world．You could rent（租） a robot working in a rain forest，then go into your home dome，where you yourself operate the robot's movements．The equipment in the room will receive the sensations in the robot's environment and simulate them for you．
   Today，much of the world's population never travels more than 50 or 60 miles from home．And even a person with enough time can see only a part of the earth's sights．But this new way of travel will cost so much less in both time and money and allow people to see a lot more of the globe．And simulated travel will also help protect our planet．You can't take large groups of tourists to look at Dian Fossey's gorillas （大猩猩）．But a small robot，with no animal smell，can get very close to a gorilla and send the sights，sounds，and smells back to a million people．

（1）The main purpose of the JASON Project is to        ．
A．design robots
B．educate children
C．explore the world
D．improve technology
（2）Without going outside，people in "home domes" can        ．
A．get very close to nature
B．enjoy a guided trip
C．develop and operate robots
D．send images back to scientists
（3）What's the author's attitude towards the future of robot technology？
A．Uncaring．
B．Doubtful．
C．Hopeful．
D．Dissatisfied．
（4）According to the text，simulated travel        ．
A．has been widely accepted
B．costs lots of time and money
C．is harmful to the environment
D．is time-and money-saving

213457. （2023•周至六中•高二下期中） How many calories are there in every meal you eat？That seems like a difficult question to answer.But students at Aitkin High School in the United States can easily answer it now.They put what they eat into an online calorie counter（计算器）.It quickly measures the amount of calories in their meals.
   In fact，this is part of the school's health class.It includes heart health，nutrition（营养） and fitness.Students can learn basic knowledge about fats，proteins（蛋白质），calories and sugar.

"The online calorie counter has turned out to be a cool tool to help you make healthy choices.Making one healthy eating decision can really make a difference." Adam Carlson，the teacher in charge，told local newspaper Aitkin Independent Age.
    They also discuss good ways to burn calories in the gym.According to Carlson，the gym is a great place to burn calories and get stronger.But it doesn't work for everyone.So they try to find different exercise tips. "I'm trying hard to teach the students that working out can be fun，challenging，and doesn't need to take hours out of the day，" she said.

203406. （2016•西工大附中•七模） Andy Steele lives just a few blocks from the campus of Black Hills State University in Spearfish，S．D．，so commuting（经常往返） to class isn't the problem．But he doesn't like lectures much，isn't a morning person，and wants time during the day to restore motorcycles．
   So Steele，a full-time senior business major，has been taking as many classes as he can from the South Dakota State system's online offerings．He gets better grades and learns more，he says，and insists he isn't missing out on the college experience．
   "I still know a lot of people from my first two years living on campus，and I still meet a lot of people，" he says．But now，he sets his own schedule．
   At least 2.3 million people took some kind of online courses，according to a recent survey by the Sloan Consortium，an online education group，and two-thirds of colleges offering "face-to-face" courses also offer online ones．But what were once two different types of classes are looking more and more alike and often falling into the same pool of students．
   At some schools，online courses originally intended for non-traditional students living far from campus have proved surprisingly popular with on-campus students．A recent study found 42 percent of the students enrolled in its distance education courses were located on campus at the university that was hosting the online courses．
   Numbers vary depending on the policies of particular colleges，but other schools also have students mixing and matching online and "face-to-face" credits．Motives range from lifestyle to adapting to a job schedule to getting into high-demand courses．
   Washington State had about 325 on-campus undergraduates taking one or more distance courses last year．As many as 9，000 students took both distance and in-person classes at Arizona State last year．
   "Business is really about providing choices to their customers，and that's really what we want to do，" said Sheila Aaker，extended services coordinator （协调人） at Black Hills State．
   Many schools，such as Washington State and Arizona State，let departments and academic units decide who can take an online course．They say students with legitimate academic needs - a conflict with another class，a course they need to graduate that is full - often get permission，though they still must take some key classes in person．

（1）What is the purpose of the passage？
A．To introduce Steele to us，who prefers online courses．
B．To tell us about the development of campus courses．
C．To show the differences between campus courses and online courses．
D．To show more on-campus students are taking online courses．
（2）We can learn from the passage that Andy Steele        ．
A．lives far from the campus
B．knows none of his classmates
C．wants to have his own lifestyle
D．doesn't get good marks
（3）Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage？
A．The undergraduates attend the online courses for different purposes．
B．It is expected that distance education is popular with on-campus students．
C．About 325 on-campus undergraduates took online courses in Washington last year．
D．Different colleges have different policies about online courses．
（4）From what Sheila Aaker said in the passage，we can tell        ．
A．business is the most popular major in universities
B．collegeould provide more majors for students
C．where the similarity between business and colleges lies
D．why colleges offer online courses to on-campus students

203323. （2016•西工大附中•七模） More than 20 Chinese and American experts discovered that young people of both countries are facing the same problems of economic and social pressures and lack of confidence．Wayne Meisel，director of the Campus Outreach Opportunity League of Minnesota University，said that under economic pressure American young people have to work hard and most students have to take part-time work in order to support themselves．In these circumstances，he said，young people lack confidence，which was not the case in the 1960s when young people thought themselves capable of doing anything．In spite of the different conditions in China，Li Xuequan，director of the higher education section of the All-China Youth Federation，said Chinese young people are also facing economic pressure and are worried about inflation and corruption．In order to solve these problems，the Chinese and American experts agreed that youth organization should call on the whole of society to create favourable conditions for the healthy growth of young people，as well as to encourage them to meet the urgent needs of society．Meisel said that since last year he has sent letters of"challenge to youth"to many young people，urging them to commit themselves to meet such needs as feeding the hungry，housing the homeless，caring for the lonely and sick，serving the elderly and preserving the environment．The letter says："Through the service，we touch the lives of others and enrich our own．"

203342. （2016•西工大附中•九模） High-quality customer service is told by many，but actually keeping customers happy is easier said than done．
Shoppers seldom complain to the manager or owner of retail （零售） store，but instead will alarm their friends，relatives，co-workers，strangers and anyone who will listen．Store managers are often the last to hear complaints，and often find out only when their regular customers decide to frequent their competitors，according to a study jointly conducted by Verde group and Wharton school．"Storytelling hurts retailers and entertains consumers．"Said Paula Courtney，president of the Verde group．"The store loses the customer，but the shopper must also find a replacement．"
On average，every unhappy customer will complain to at least four others，and will no longer visit the specific store．For every dissatisfied customer，a store will lose up to three more due to negative reviews．The resulting"snowball effect"can be disastrous to retailers．
According to the research，shoppers who purchased clothing encountered the most problems．Ranked second and third were grocery and electronics customers．The most common complaints include filled parking lots，messy and overloaded shelves，sold-out items，long check-out lines，and rude salespeople．
During peak shopping hours，some retailers solved the parking problems by getting moonlighting local police to work as parking attendants．Some hired flag wavers to direct customers to empty parking spaces．This guidance got rid of the need for customers to circle the parking lot endlessly，and avoided confrontation between those eyeing the same parking space．
Retailers can relieve the headaches by redesigning store layouts，pre-stocking sales items，hiring speedy and experienced cashiers，and having sales representatives on hand to answer questions．Most importantly，salespeople should be diplomatic and polite with angry customers．
"Retailers who're responsive and friendly are more likely to smooth over problems than those who aren't so friendly．"Said Professor Stephen Hoch．"Maybe something as simple as a greeter at the store entrance would help．"
Customers can also improve future shopping experiences by filing complaints to the retailer，instead of complaining to the rest of the world．Retailers are hard-pressed to improve when they have no idea what is wrong．

（1）Why are store managers often the last to hear complaints？
A．Customers have no easy access to store managers．
B．Few customers believe the service will be improved．
C．Customers would rather relate their unhappy experiences to others．
D．Most customers won't bother to complain about unhappy experiences．
（2）Shop owners often hire moonlighting police as parking attendants so that shoppers       ．
A．won't have trouble parking their cars
B．won't have any worries about security
C．can find their cars easily after shopping
D．can stay longer looking around in the store
（3）What contributes most to smoothing over problems with customers？
A．Design of the store layout．
B．Manners of the salespeople．
C．Hiring of efficient employees．
D．Huge supply of goods for sale．
（4）To achieve better shopping experiences，customers are advised to       ．
A．voice their dissatisfaction to store managers directly
B．put pressure on stores to improve their service
C．shop around and make comparisons between stores
D．settle their disagreement with stores in a diplomatic way．

203359. （2016•西工大附中•八模） So hungry do some plants get that they eat flies，spiders，and even small frogs．What's more amazing is that these plants occur naturally （in special environments） in every state．In fact，they're found on every continent except Antarctica．
You've probably seen a Venus' flytrap．It's often sold in museum gift stores，department stores，and even supermarkets．A small plant，it grows 6 to 8 inches tall in a container．At the end of its stalks （茎） are specially modified leaves that act like traps．Inside each trap is a lining of tiny trigger （触发） hairs．When an insect lands on them，the trap suddenly shuts．Over the course of a week or so，the plant feeds on its catch．
The Venus' flytrap is just one of more than 500 species of meat-eating plants，says Barry Meyers-Rice，the editor of the International Carnivorous（食肉的）Plant Society's Newsletter．Note：Despite any science-fiction stories you might have read，no meat-eating plant does any danger to humans．
Dr．Meyers-Rice says a plant is meat-eating，only if it does all four of the following："attract，kill，digest，and absorb"some form of insects，including flies，butterflies，and moths．Meat-eating plants look and act like other green plants---well，most of the time．
All green plants make sugar through a process called photosynthesis （光合作用）．Plants use the sugar to make food．What makes"meat-eating"plants different is their bug-catching leaves．They need insects for one reason：nitrogen （氮）．Nitrogen is a nutrient that they can't obtain any other way．While almost all green plants on our planet get nitrogen from the soil，"meat-eating"plants can't．They live in places where nutrients are hard or almost impossible to get from the soil because of its acidity．So they've come to rely on getting nitrogen from insects and small animals．In fact，nutrient-rich soil is poisonous to"meat-eating"plants．Never fertilize them!But don't worry，either，if they never seem to catch any insects．They can survive，but they'll grow very slowly．
（1）According to the passage，carnivorous plants        ．
A．only grow in wild field
B．cannot grow on Antarctica
C．are as common as flies
D．are rare to see
（2）Venus' flytrap preys on insects by        ．
A．its numerous long and thin stalks
B．a container where it grows
C．the lining of tiny trigger hairs
D．its insect-catching leaves
（3）We can conclude from the third paragraph that        ．
A．carnivorous plants are dangerous
B．carnivorous plants are harmless to humans
C．carnivorous plants occasionally eat books
D．carnivorous plants are fictional
（4）In the eyes of the author，which of the following statements is TRUE？
A．Carnivorous plants can grow in nutrient-poor soil．
B．Carnivorous plants cannot grow in acid soil．
C．Carnivorous plants will die if they cannot catch any insects．
D．Carnivorous plants can get nitrogen from nutrient-rich soil．
