decade is steep for teen readers， some data in the report shows that reading remains a big part of many chidren's lives， and indicates how parents might help encourage more readingAccording to the report's key findings， “the proportion （比例） who say they hardly ever' read for fun has gone from 8 percent of 13yearolds and 9 percent of 17yearolds in 1984 to 22 percent and 27 percent respectively today“The report data shows that pleasure reading levels for younger children，ages 28，remain largely the sameBut the amount of time spent in reading each session has declined，from closer to an hour or more to closer to a half hour per sessionWhen it comes to technology and reading，the report does little to counsel（建议）parents looking for data about the effect of ereaders and tablets on readingIt does point out that many parents still limit electronic reading，mainly due to concerns about increased screen timeThe most hopeful data shared in the report shows clear evidence of parents serving as examples and important guides for their kids when it comes to readingData shows that kids and teens who do read frequently，compared to infrequent readers，have more books in the home，more books purchased for them，parents who read more often，and parents who set aside time for them to readAs the end of school approaches，and school vacation reading lists loom（逼近）ahead，parents might take this

teachers14 （8.00 分）DWe've all been there：in a lift，in line at the bank or on an airplane，surrounded by people who are，like us，deeply focused on their smartphones or，worse，struggling with the uncomfortable silenceWhat's the problem？ It's possible that we all have compromised conversational intelligence It's more likely that none of us start a conversation because it's awkward and challenging， or we think it's annoying and unnecessary But the next time you find yourself among strangers， consider that 第 10 页（共 41 页）small talk is worth the trouble Experts say it's an invaluable social practice that results in big benefitsDismissing small talk as unimportant is easy， but we can't forget that deep relationships wouldn't even exist if it weren't for casual conversation Small talk is the grease （润滑剂） for social communication， says Bernardo Carducci， director of the Shyness Research Institute at Indiana University Southeast “Almost every great love story and each big business deal begins with small talk，“ he explains “The key to successful small talk is learning how to connect with others， not just communicate with them“In a 2014 study， Elizabeth Dunn， associate professor of psychology at UBC， invited people on their way into a coffee shop One group was asked to seek out an interaction（互动） with its waiter； the other， to speak only when necessary The results showed that those who chatted with their server reported significantly higher positive feelings and a better coffee shop experience“It's not that talking to the waiter is better than talking to your husband，“ says Dunn“But interactions with peripheral（边缘的） members of our social network matter for our wellbeing also“Dunn believes that people who reach out to strangers feel a significantly greater sense of belonging， a bond with others Carducci believes developing such a sense of belonging starts with small talk“Small talk is the basis of good manners，“ he says（1）What phenomenon is described in the first paragraph？ A Addiction to smartphonesB Inappropriate behaviours in public placesC Absence of communication between strangersD Impatience with slow service（2）What is important for successful small talk according to Carducci？ A Showing good manners第 11 页（共 41 页）B Relating to other peopleC Focusing on a topicD Making business deals（3）What does the coffeeshop study suggest about small talk？

Making Small TalkC Benefits of Small TalkD Uncomfortable Silence第二节（共第二节（共 1 小题；每小题小题；每小题 10 分，满分分，满分 10 分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选分）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。选项中有两项为多余选项。项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。15 （10.00
