26、One in ten teens says they use“study drugs”to improve their performance in school. So-called “study drugs”refer to prescription medicines(处方药) that are used to treat ADHD(注意力缺乏症).But most 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 high school students say they use a study drug.
The misuse of study drugs didn’t come to the attention of almost all parents.“What we found in this survey is a clear mismatch(不协调),”said Dr. Matthew Davis, one of the researchers. It is a mismatch between what parents believed and what their kids were reporting.
“We know teens are spreading the word that these drugs can improve their grades,”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 Hispanic(拉美的) parents and thirty-seven percent of black parents.
However, just twenty-seven percent of parents surveyed have 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, such as the school nurse’s office. Seventy-nine percent of parents think so, the survey shows. This may help prevent it from being shared or used by other students.
【1】According to Paragraph 4, Dr. Daiv thinks__________.
A.the 2012 University of Michigan study is untrue
B.it is a good way to take study drugs to treat ADHD
C.some parents still don’t realize the study drugs problem
D.it is necessary to do another new survey about study drugs
【2】Dr. Davis believed using study drugs to improve grades_________.
A.is worth a try B.is bad for health
C.sometimes works D.causes little harm
【3】What does the underlined word“it”in the last paragraph refer to?
A.ADHD. B.The survey.
C.A safe place. D.The study drug.
【4】What is the purpose of this text?
A.To give useful advice.
B.To introduce a new drug.
C.To report a research result
D.To explain what ADHD is.

32、阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
Steven had had his first starring role in kindergarten, playing a talking stone in a class play. From the moment that he heard the applause and took his bows, he knew he wanted to be an actor. He “drew” his name as it would look at a theatre. In his mind, he “practiced” his acceptance speech to the Academy Awards(奥斯卡金像奖). “I want to thank my agent(经纪人)...” he imagined himself saying to the crowd. He wanted to be an actor.
By six grade, he was used to starring in school productions. He played Romeo in this year’s Junior Shakespeare Festival. His brother said he was probably the first Romeo in the history of theatre to have braces(牙套). Steven liked everything about acting-except for his brother’s comments about it. Brad was not interested in acting.
Steven dreamed of going to California or New York when he got older. Meanwhile, he read the “trades” at the library-the newspapers and magazines of the acting business. He couldn’t believe it when he saw that there was going to be an open casting call(演员招雾)in his own Midwestern city. He begged his parents to take him, but they worked on Saturdays and they couldn’t take the day off. He was forced to ask his older brother, the critic.
The part called for a boy who looked about 14. Steven figured he could pass. Unlike Brad, Steven looked older than his age. Brad, on the other hand, at 16 looked more like 14. The boys arrived early at the theatre where the try-outs(试镜)were taking place. There were already over 200 kids there. Steven picked up his application. Brad picked one, too- “just for fun,” he said. Each of them then studied the short script they’d been handed. Like all the other kids, they mouthed the words over and over. Some kids found quiet spaces to read their lines aloud, with all the right emotion.
Steven asked Brad to listen to his reading. “Okay, but you have to listen to mine, too.”
“Deal,” Steven answered. Then he read, and, as usual, he was good. Next, it was Brad’s turn. Steven couldn’t believe what he was seeing and hearing. Why hadn’t Brad ever tried out for a play? Where had he gotten all this talent all of a sudden? He asked his brother, “Why haven’t you tried before?”
“I was waiting for something big,” Brad replied.
