二、阅读理解(每小题 2 分,满分 30 分)
A
Compared with before,there are fewer students playing on the playground. After school,students spend a lot of time on their studies or other training plans. Even on weekends,they are pushed to study without being allowed to relax. Then what's the result of this situation? Students are always busy with their studies and don't have time to communicate with others. And more and more students like to stay alone.
However,I strongly believe that social skills play a big role in the overall(全面的)development of students. Communicating with others is important. According to a study,compared with those with less developed social skills,students with strong social skills are smarter and can get higher grades. About 78% of students who take an active part in social activities show lower levels of pressure(压力)than those who do not. And the prevalence of depression(抑郁症)is 10% lower than those who have good communication with others.
Students can socialize(交际)in different places. For example,when they socialize at school,they can get to know how to work in groups,make more friends and solve problems. They also learn how to be leaders,which will help students feel good about themselves. When they receive feedback(反馈)from others,they will have a chance to improve themselves. What's more, ▲ . Students who are good at socializing will be more likely to get a job than others in the future,because in many jobs,they need to communicate with all kinds of people and work well in a team.
I am sure that students will grow better if they learn more social skills and make more friends,so students should go out and communicate with others,instead of staying alone.

【解析】：
这是一篇英语阅读理解题，主要考查学生对文章内容的理解和推理能力。文章主要讨论了当前学生缺乏社交技能的问题，并强调了社交技能在学生全面发展中的重要性。接下来，我们将按照题目的顺序进行解答。
16. 细节理解题。题目问的是学生面临的问题，根据文章第一段的描述，学生忙于学习，没有时间与他人交流，因此选项C“没有时间与他人交流”是正确答案。
17. 推理判断题。在第二段中，作者通过列举研究数据和对比来支持其观点，即社交技能对学生的全面发展有重要作用。因此，作者支持其观点的方式是通过列举数字，选项B正确。
18. 段落大意题。本题要求将段落与小标题进行匹配。第一段主要描述了当前学生的状况，即忙于学习，没有时间交流，对应小标题d；第二段阐述了作者对于学习社交技能的观点，对应小标题b；第三段讲述了学生在不同地方进行社交的好处，对应小标题a；第四段总结了作者的观点，即学生应该学习社交技能，对应小标题b（但考虑到此处的b已被第二段使用，且四个选项中只有D选项的第四段对应为b的后续内容，即整体观点的总结，故此处应理解为整体结构中的结尾部分，选择D选项）。因此，正确答案是D。
19. 推理判断题。本题要求选出可以填入第三段空缺处的句子。根据第三段的内容，主要讲述了社交技能在不同场合的重要性，特别是在未来的工作中。因此，选项C“社交技能在工作场所是必要的”最符合语境。
20. 主旨大意题。本题要求选出文章的最佳标题。文章主要讨论了社交技能在学生全面发展中的重要性，因此选项D“社交技能的作用”最能概括文章的主旨。
