A recent study from a team of South Korean researchers suggests that eating alone may often lead to poor eating habits and poor food choices. Specifically, the study found that men who ate alone more than twice a week had a greater risk of developing high blood pressure, high cholesterol and diabetes.
For children, eating with their families is not only about preventing bad outcomes(结果)—it is also about developing good ones.
In 2014, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) looked at data from nearly three-quarters of the world's countries. Among its findings was the fact that students who shared a main meal with their families were less likely to skip school. Children who eat a main meal with their families are also less likely to abuse drugs and alcohol(吸毒酗酒).
In the report, titled “The Importance of Family Dinners(Ⅷ)”, researchers say that “teens who have frequent family dinners are more likely to say their parents know a lot about what's going on in their lives”. They also claim that when teens say they feel closer to their parents, they are less likely to use drugs and alcohol.
Another study from the University of Montreal found that children who ate with their families experience long-term physical and mental health benefits(好处). These children were physically in better shape and drank fewer
sugary soft drinks. These children also seemed to have better social skills and they were less aggressive(好斗).
Professor Linda Pagani says that mealtimes shared with parents “likely provide young children with first-hand social interactions, discussions of social issues(事件) and day-to-day concerns”. She adds that they may likely help the child have better communication skills with others.
26.What can be the best title for the text? ( )
A.Benefits of eating together. B.Advantages of eating alone.
C.Ways of developing social skills. D.Risks of using drugs and alcohol.
27.Children eating with their families are more likely to . ( )
A.drink more sugary soft drinks B.do well in their studies at school
C.be more socially active and aggressive D.have a closer relationship with their parents
28.Why is Professor Pagani mentioned in the last paragraph? ( )
A.To introduce her. B.To add a new point.
C.To explain further. D.To provide background information.
29.From which is the text probably taken? ( )
A.A travel guide. B.A biology textbook.
C.A cooking instruction. D.A science magazine.

30. When kids break rules, parents will give them some punishments, which aren't included in rules. In fact, when you tell your kids about a new rule, you should talk with them about the price they should pay for breaking the rule—what the punishment will be.
31. Violence or threat(暴力或威胁) is not good. For example, if you find your son smoking, you may limit(限制) his social activities for two weeks. You should punish your kids only in ways you have discussed before
the rule is broken. 32.
It's understandable that you'll be angry when rules are broken. 33. But it's not a very good one. Sharing your feelings of anger, disappointment or sadness with your kids can have a better effect on them. Try to do that. When your kids know what they have done has made you sad, they will feel guilty(内疚的). When they know their actions influence you greatly, they will obey better.
34. If your rules or ways of punishment make them unhappy or under a lot of pressure, are they helpful?
A.Punishments you set should be reasonable.
B.Many parents like setting family rules for their kids.
C.Do your children break rules at home?
D.Punishment is a way to express your anger.
E.There are lots of rules for kids at school.
F.Family rules are made to help your kids behave better.
G.The most popular punishment is to limit kids' TV time.
