Schls in three ther states are starting a similar prgram after seeing this ne perfrm s well. (自从实施这个项目以来，老师们注意到他们的学生更专心了，不那么躁动了。他们有更多的眼神交流，考试成绩更好，总体上看起来更健康、更快乐。他们甚至不需要削铅笔，因为他们啃铅笔的时间更少了。其他三个州的学校在看到这所学校表现如此出色后，也开始了类似的项目。)”可知，本段介绍了在实施这一项目后，学生变得更健康、更快乐，并且改掉了一些小毛病，这一项目也得到了其它州的学校的认可和推广。概括而言，本段主要介绍了实施这一项目的好处。故选B。
10．答案：C

(毫无疑问，削减课间休息是一个有良好目的的决定。但是传统的讲授加测试的方法真的有效吗?减少课间休息时间是否能提高学习效率?最近的研究结果给出了否定的答案。2014年的一项研究表明，高质量的课间休息项目的好处包括欺凌和冲突的减少，以及学生感受到的安全感和幸福感的增加。俄亥俄州立大学的专家罗伯特·默里的研究显示，孩子们在课间休息后学得更好。)”可知，第六段首句为过渡句，表明学校减少课间休息时间是出于好意，接着就减少课间休息时间的效果进行设问，之后给出了否定的答案。然后作者引用2014年的研究结果，说明高质量的课间休息给学生带来的积极变化，以此来说明减少课间休息时间不会产生好的效果，应该予以制止。故选C。
11．答案：GACEF
解析：①根据段落标题Never Over-Study和上文的句子Instead, take regular breaks.可知成功的学生从不过度学习，所以选项承接上文，说明休息所带来的益处。故G选项“适当的休息一下可以让你精力充沛，思维清楚”。切题。故选G。
②根据下文Tp students dn’t just randmly(随意地) sit dwn and cmplete wrk. They actually plan what they are ging t d. They actually plan the time they will study and they set gals fr what will be achieved.可知，优秀的学生不会随意地坐下来完成工作。实际上他们计划了他们将要做什么，计划他们的学习时间和制定了要实现的目标。因此本段主要讲述成功的学生计划他们的学习也就是空处所要说明的内容。故A选项“计划你的学习”切题。故选A。
③根据上一句Set a plan and, set a gal and stick t it, which create a rutine and a rutine is the first step twards develping a habit.可知，制定一个计划，设定一个目标并坚持下去，这就创造了一个习惯，而习惯是养成习惯的第一步。所以空处是对本段的总结。故C选项“积极肯定的习惯决定未来的成功”切题。故选C。
④根据上文Many f us like t d the easy things first t build ur cnfidence.可知，我们很多人喜欢做容易的事情来增强自信。接着说yur batteries will be lw when it cmes the time t deal with the hard part.当处理艰难部分的时候，你的精力将会降低。S what happens then?所以接下来什么会发生？下文讲述We all d it. We really shuldn’t, thugh.我们都在那样做，然而我们不应该。因此推断空格处应是：你变得厌烦和不耐烦，只是要放弃。故E选项“你变得厌烦和不耐烦，只是要放弃”切题。故选E。
⑤根据这段中的Just turn them ff fr an hur; we prmise the wrld will still be there when yu lg back in. Dn’t text yur friends; dn’t chat while ding memry activities; dn’t make phne calls; just fcus n what yu're ding.只是关掉一个小时；当你重新登录世界将仍然在哪里。不要给你的朋友发短信；在做记忆活动时不要聊天；不要打电话；只是集中精力你正在做的事情。因此推断标题是“关掉社交网址并关掉电话”。故F选项“关掉社交网址并关掉电话”切题。故选F。

32．答案： has emplyed；cllected；fr；respnsibilities/respnsibility；what；amazing；smartest；which/that；an；are rewarded
解析：①考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意：到目前为止，法国西部的一个主题公园雇佣了六只鸟，更准确地说是六只乌鸦，来收集和处理垃圾——主要是烟头和其他小碎片。空处为句子谓语动词，根据时间状语s far，可知时态为现在完成时；主语a theme park和谓语emply之间是主动关系，且主语是单数名词，故填has emplyed。
②考查非谓语动词。句意：这些鸟把收集到的垃圾送到专门的箱子里，在那里它们可以得到鸟的食物，作为交换，它们要把垃圾扔掉。主句中已有谓语动词take，故空处用非谓语动词，cllect和逻辑主语rubbish之间为被动关系，故用过去分词cllected作前置定语，表示“收集到的”。故填cllected。
③考查介词。句意：这些鸟把收集到的垃圾送到专门的箱子里，在那里它们可以得到鸟的食物，作为交换，它们要把垃圾扔掉。根据固定搭配in exchange fr意为“作为……的交换”，所以应填介词fr。故填fr。
④考查名词。句意：雇佣乌鸦的目的是教育人们承担社会责任/职责。空处应填名词作宾语，respnsible的名词形式为respnsibility，意为“责任”时，为不可数名词；意为“职责”时，为可数名词，此时用其复数形式表泛指。故填respnsibilities/respnsibility。
⑤考查宾语从句。句意：既然鸟类能做我们比它们更有能力做的事，我们不应该自己做吗?分析句子成分可知，此处d后是一个宾语从句，宾语从句中缺宾语，应用连接代词what，表示“我们比它们更有能力做的事”。故填what。
⑥考查名词。句意：人们长期以来一直观察到乌鸦表现出各种各样令人惊叹的智慧。修饰名词intelligence，表示“令人惊叹的”应用形容词amazing，指事物的特征。故填amazing
⑦考查形容词。句意：他们是地球上最聪明的动物之一，有着惊人的解决问题、工具制造、演绎推理技能。根据固定结构ne f +形容词最高级+可数名词复数“最……的……之一”可知，这里应该smart的最高级形式。故填smartest。
⑧考查定语从句。句意：除了激励人类去捡垃圾外，目前在公园工作的聪明乌鸦也非常兴奋地将它们的智慧用于工作。空处引导限制性定语从句，代替指物的先行词crws在从句中作主语，应用关系代词which/that作引导词。故填which/that。
⑨考查冠词。句意：“对他们来说，这已经成为一项令人兴奋的游戏”，Niclas说。game为可数名词，此处表示泛指，且修饰词exciting发音以元音音素开头，需用不定冠词an限定。故填an。
⑩考查动词时态和语态。句意：他们捡起地上的垃圾，并且每天都因为他们所做的而得到奖励。分析句子成分可知，此处缺少谓语动词，根据时间状语every day，可知时态为一般现在时；又因句子主语为they和reward之间为被动关系且主语是复数代词。故填are rewarded。
