8.One in ten teens says they use"study drugs"to improve their performance in school.So-called"study-drugs"refer to prescription medicines(處方藥) used to treat ADHD(注意力缺乏癥).But most of parents have no understanding of the problem,a new study finds.
In January,2013,researchers from the University of Michigan Mott Children's Hospital did a national survey of more than seven hundred families with teens.They found that only one percent of parents believe their child has taken a study drug.
Yet in a 2012 University of Michigan study,ten percent of second-year high school students and twelve percent of third-year students say they use a study drug.
The misuse of stuffy drugs didn't come to the attention of almost all parents."What we found in this survey is a clear mismatch(不相符),"said Dr.Matthew Davis,one of the researchers."It is a mismatch between what parents believe and what their children were reporting."
"We know teens believe that these drugs can improve their grade,"Davis said."But these prescription medicines are drugs.And teens who use them without a prescription are taking a serious risk."
The new survey showed that fifty-four percent of white parents were"very concerned"about their child taking study drugs,compared with thirty-eight percent of the Hispanic (拉美的) parents and thirty-seven percent of black parents.
However,just twenty-seven percent of parents surveyed talked to their teens about using study drugs.Of these parents,forty-one percent were black,twenty-seven percent were white and seventeen percent were Hispanic.
Students with a prescription for an ADHD drug should be required to keep their medicines in a safe place.Seventy-nine percent of parents think so,the survey shows.This may help preventitfrom being shared or used by other students.

分析 每十個青少年中就有一個說他們使用"學(xué)習(xí)藥物"來提高他們在學(xué)校的表現(xiàn).但是父母們不能意識到使用這種藥物的危害性.本文是對于這種現(xiàn)象的調(diào)查結(jié)果的介紹.
解答 32.D 細(xì)節(jié)理解題.第四段的提出的問題是The misuse of stuffy drugs didn't come to the attention of almost all parents幾乎所有家長都不注意使用不衛(wèi)生的藥物.然后引用的DrDavis 一個研究人員的話來說明這個觀點,所以他的話是為了說明這個父母們?nèi)匀徊荒芤庾R到用藥問題,所以答案選D.
33.A.推理判斷題.根據(jù)教授的話"But these prescription medicines are drugs.And teens who use them without a prescription are taking a serious risk.但是這些處方藥是藥物,而那些沒有處方的青少年服用的藥物則是一個嚴(yán)重的風(fēng)險.可以推斷出他認(rèn)為這種藥對于健康是有危害的,所以答案選A.
34.A 猜測詞義題.根據(jù)最后一段的內(nèi)容,這項研究表明,這可能有助于防止它被其他學(xué)生共享或使用.本文主要就是介紹study drug的調(diào)查情況,本句中的it指的就是本文中的study drug,
35.C 寫作意圖題.根據(jù)第一段最后一句But most of parents have no understanding of the problem,a new study finds.但一項新的研究發(fā)現(xiàn),大多數(shù)父母對這一問題并不了解.下文作者就本次調(diào)查情況及其結(jié)果進行了介紹,所以答案選C.
點評 閱讀理解題測試考生在閱讀基礎(chǔ)上的邏輯推理能力,要求考生根據(jù)文章所述事件的邏輯關(guān)系,對未說明的趨勢或結(jié)局作出合理的推斷;或根據(jù)作者所闡述的觀點理論,對文章未涉及的現(xiàn)象、事例給以解釋.考生首先要仔細(xì)閱讀短文,完整了解信息,準(zhǔn)確把握作者觀點.
