Question

Students who date (約會）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 trademark of adolescence, but very few studies have examined how adolescents differ in the development of these relationships," said Pamela Orpinas, study author and professor in the College of Public Health and head of the Department of Health Promotion and Behavior.
Orpinas followed a group of 624 students 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 (調查表）about the students* academic efforts. He found some students never or hardly ever reported dating from middle to high school, and these students had consistently 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 (轉移）attention from studying.”
Dating should not be considered a ceremony of growth in middle school，”O(jiān)rpinas concluded.

解析試題分析：本文講述的是年輕學生之間的約會對學生的學習產生的不良的影響。
【小題1】D 細節(jié)題。根據文章倒數第二段"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可知與別人約會的頻率與學習的技能有直接的聯(lián)系。故D正確。
【小題2】 C 細節(jié)題。根據文章倒數第二段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.
可知ABD三項都是學習技巧所包括的內容，C項沒有提及。故C正確。
【小題3】B 細節(jié)題。根據文章最后"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 (轉移）attention from studying.”說明伴侶分手以后，他們在學習上的注意力都會被分散。故B正確。
【小題4】C 細節(jié)題。根據文章第一段Students who date (約會）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可知約會對學生的學習有很大影響。說明作者對學生約會持有反對的態(tài)度。
