It will keep kids home from school. 1 Employees will suddenly lose their ability to concentrate.

Nearly 20 million Americans will find themselves prisoners of basketball festival madness. The fun comes partly from guessing the winners for every game. Friends compete against friends. 3 Colleagues against bosses. Big – name schools are usually favored to advance into the tournament. But each year there are dark horses from littl –known universities. This adds to the madness. Watching a team from a school with 3,000 students beat a team from a school with 30,000many Americans, is an exciting experience.

And if there is, can it affect how a nation succeed or fail? At least one group of people is certain that it can. A recent survey of the top 500 entrepreneurs (企业家) in the UK found that 70% felt that their efforts were not appreciated by the British public. Britain is hostile (敌意的) to success, they said. It has a culture of jealousy(嫉妒). 1 Jealousy is sometimes known as the ―green – eyed monsterǁ and the UK is its home.Scientists at Warwich University in the UK recently tested this idea. They gathered a group of people together and g each an imaginary amount of money. 2 Those given a little were given the chance to destroy the large amount of money given to others – but at the cost of losing their own.

The many wants of mankind might be regarded as making up several levels. 2 . The first and most basic level of wants involves food.

Among Among Among them them them are are are vacation vacation vacation trips, trips, trips, the the the best best best medical medical medical care, care, care, and and entertainment. 4 One this level, a greater percentage of consumer spending goes to services, while on the first three levels more is spen goods. Will consumers raise their sights to a fifth level of wants as their income increases, or will they continue to dem luxuries and personal services on the fourth level?

So she depended on her old favorite trick of talking with her host. , King Tupou IV, carrying on a warm conversation. At the same time she pushed her food around her plate and only ate a piece of turkey and some fruit.Reporters traveling with her have noted that the Queen will sometimes seem so carried away by a foreign leader’s political chat that she simply never has time to finish a meal before it is time to get up and make her speech.

If so, you are not alone. Actually, it’s a common occurrence for many of us to feel empty in various ways. For instance, you might feel empty as something is missing in your life. Or the emptiness might stem from sl owly abandoning yourselves, and not listening to your own hopes and d esires. Abandoning yourselves can also spark anxiety, depression, guilt and shame. 26.Here are several suggestions to help you out.Acknowl edge the emptiness. If you’re experiencing emptiness that’s more like a gaping hole, acknowl edge it, and be gentle with yourself. 27.If this emptiness is because of a l oved one’s passing, d on’t get angry with yourself for grieving years later. In that case you learn to live life alongsid e that hol e of missing that person.Expl ore your feelings of emptiness. Scientists suggested expl oring the bel ow questions. We can do this while keeping a journal, taking a walk or drinking a cup of tea.*Do I tell myself positive things?*What am I trying to prove or win?*28.*Am I blaming myself for things that are out of my control?29.Fight the urge to turn to the outside worl d for fulfillment. Instead of trying to fill the emptiness with drugs, alcohol, TV, computer games or anything else, l ook within, and spend time with yourself. It may feel uncomfortabl e at first, but the more you practise devoting time and energy to yourself and caring for yourself, the l ess present those empty feelings will be.30.Whether you are experiencing difficult relationships, l osses, or feeling a lack of purpose or meaning, you are worthy of a fulfilling and meaningful life.A.Control your current feelings.B.Spend time with yourself every day.C.How do you handle your emptiness?D.Don’t beat yourself up for feeling this way.E.Have I been judging myself or comparing myself to others?F.It’s important to acknowl edge and accept your feelings of emptiness.G.Do you spend too much time on filling your emptiness?Can you move 11 minutes a day? You’ll live longer if you d o There is no d enying that 2020 has reduced activity levels. Between the Zoom meetings, Netflix binges and virtual cocktail hours, increased sitting is a pandemic-driven reality for many.31.But there is good news! Despite all that sed entary time, with as little as 11 minutes of movement a day, you can increase your life span, a recent study has found.32.It's true; past studies, including a popular study from 2016, had originally put the daily exercise target at 60 to 75 minutes for mortality benefits. However, that study was based on self-reported data, which this latest study, published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine, found to be flawed due to people misremembering their actual activity levels.Taking a more objective approach, scientists at the Norwegian School of Sports Medicine based their research on the use of activity monitors to track exercise versus sedentary time. The results showed that participants who exercised 35 minutes per day saw the biggest statistical difference on life span. Yet just 11 minutes of moderate exercise — equivalent to a brisk walk — still had a noticeabl e positive impact. 33.Here is a way to consider—4 sets of a 3-minute body-weight exercise sequence. Depending on the exercises you use, you may go at a slightly different pace during each round, making it about 11 minutes. When sel ecting your exercises, try to pick a sequence of movements that will equate to a full-body workout of mod erate effort. 34.Ideally, do a combo, determining the number of repetitions for each exercise based on your fitness level and maintaining a three-minute sequence for the time frame.See how easy it is to fit in 11 minutes of daily exercise? You can do it. 35.Although no one can give you a do-over of 2020, you can make up for lost time by adding a littl e more to your life span.A.In fact, you owe it to yourself after getting through this past year.B.And studies have reveal ed the great health risks of prol onged sitting.C.The simpl est way is with a walk outside or on the treadmill at your local gym.D.A l ower barrier makes it easier to get even the most inactive among us moving.E.You might wond er about the hour-per-day measurement you've been hearing about for years.F.What's more, both time frames were positively impactful, regardl ess of the amount of sitting.G.Avoid d oing only upper-body movements unless you do l ower-body movements the next day.Go on the Safest TripWhil e travelling, there are many safety measures that all travellers should take, even if they’re heading out a nearby mountain for a camping trip, renting a seaside Airbnb, or choosing any other d estination. Advice is highly needed on everything from what to pack to how to protect yourself. 36.Don’t take the unfamiliar road. Whil e part of the joy of exploring nature is seeing new and beautiful views, if your road trip includes a hike, stay on the marked path. Never give in to your curiosity to hike off-trail and in unfamiliar or unmarked areas. “ 37.” Warned by Dr. Velimir Petkov.Pack cl othing. In the morning, when you set out on your adventure, your temperature will likely be comfortable. As the sun reaches its highest point, you’ll start to sweat inside your car. 38.That’s why experts reco mmend packing everything you need to stay comfortable, including clothing for different temperatures.Make sure you get enough sleep. While many people have difficulty sleeping, plenty rest is necessary before a long car ride. “Do not drive while you are f eeling sleepy. 39.” Petkov recommended. He also noted that even if you get the benefits of seven to eight hours of sl eep, a little coffee can never hurt.Protect your skin. You may not consid er the sun whil e sitting in the car. The sunlight can go right through wind ow glass and cause you to burn. 40.Bahar Schmidt, found er of Eluxit Travel Agency, recommends making more efforts to protect your skin with sunscreen anddrugs against insects.A.You could get l ost, injured or both.B.It is a wise choice to wear strong shoes.C.You woul d never enjoy the views without the tips.D.If you feel like a rest, pull over and take a short break.E.And at night, certain areas experience a sharp drop in degrees.F.And mosquitoes are also drawn when you’re outd oors at night.G.We spoke with travel experts for safety guide to getting on the road.When you go to a new school, you might worry that you d on't know anyone or that you won't fit in. 41.Learn how to introduce yourself. Starting a conversation with someone new can be difficult, especially if you feel shy. Once you break the ice, however, you may find yourself in the middle of a bunch of friends. Choose someone to introduce yourself to. 42.And then talk about something related to school, such as, “When is the homework due?”43.Go to a park in the school neighborhood before school starts and maybe you can meet someone from your new school. If you make a new friend or two in advance, you won't feel so alone when you go to the first day of school.Participate in activities. Sign up for activities like sports or chess club. This will put you into smaller groups with peopl e who have similar interests as yours. 44.You might even be able to teach some other kids about how to do something.Set goals for yourself. By setting goals for yourself every day or every week, you can see how you are adjusting lo your new school in very real ways. For example, you can say, “45..” Or you will plan to attend one club meeting this week.A.Smile and say hell o to him.B.Learn the rul es of the school.C.Try to meet new peopl e before school starts.D.I'll try saying hello to 3 new peopl e every day.E.Preparing for the first day can make life a lot easier.F.This will also give a chance to show your skills.G.In fact, school life will get easier when you know how to make new friends.With final exams drawing near, many students are understandably anxious and stressed out. Some even feel unprepared and approach these days with a sense of dread. This feeling is often made worse by all those wishing you luck and insisting that you enter the arena fill ed with confidence and positive thinking. 46.In fact, it’s a sign of intelligence.You may notice that stud ents with the l owest expectations often got the best results and vice versa. This makes total sense. Because you will focus on the subject when you have l ow expectation. 47.Conversely, if yo u d on’t know a lot about a subject, you might think it’s easier than it is, only to be struck dumb in panic when the questions actually are hard.Nancy Cantor is a researcher that rejects this culture of unbridled optimism. She believes defensive pessimism is a good strategy, for people with low expectations prepare themselves for possible failure and are therefore motivated to work hard to avoid that failure.48.In 1991, the great footballing nation of Austria was humiliated in the European Cup by amateurs from the Faroe Islands—a group of fishermen who had never played football before. Before kickoff, the Austrian manager was on TV predicting that they woul d win the game 15:0. But they l ost. 49.This actually fired them up, giving them the courage to charge at their professional opponents, who were l eft dumb.Great football managers never underestimate the opposition and neither shoul d you. If you’re feeling anxious going into the exams, that’s a good sign, not a bad one. 50.A.The history of sport bears this out.B.Pessimism is often seen as a negative trait in sports.C.The fishermen had zero expectation of winning, and they had nothing to l ose. D.Actually, it’s OK to feel pessimistic going into a big exam or other difficult situations.E.The more you know about a subject, the l ess likely you are to over-estimate your ability.F.So, just believe the confid ence for success comes from accepting the possibility of failure.G.Pessimism can drive someone to make full use of their stress to help them become optimistic.Who shoul d you be friends with?For International students, if you are going to the USA for the next four years, acad emics (学术水平) should not be the only thing you think about. To quote(引述) Hamlet: “To be, or not to be (surrounded by people from your home country): that is the question.To BEInstant friendshipThere is nothing like the instant connection with friends from your country while abroad.You d on’t have to explain cultural references, and that makes everything easier. 51.Why woul d you come to a compl etely different country if you are going to just hang out with the exact same people?Sense of communityIn some universities, if you have friends from your country, you can organise events to celebrate some of your country’s festivities. 52.NOT TO BEYou’re learning EnglishOne of the main reasons to study abroad is to l earn a language through complete immersion(沉浸). 53.Learning from different culturesLearning from different cultures will give you a new way of seeing the world. 54.No matter where they come from, students have similar questions and d oubts, so you won’t be alone.55.Who should you be friends with? What will make you grow, and what will make you the happiest?

This is a process that helps build the base to handle any of the off-track situations. 56..Develop positive attitude: 57.. This helps you behave and maintain your personality traits (特性) to a normal level,even in the extreme conditions.

Thus, a personal development plan helps improve on the communication grounds as well.59.: When one is confident about oneself, the confid ence is well reflected in whatever we d o.

And we know that no two faces are exactly alike. Even identical twins have slightly different faces. Each human face is trulyunique. Usually we judge a person from his personal facial features. 61.Governments, empl oyers and security and police services are increasingly using facial recognition technol ogy. 62.Systems are becoming so advanced that a wanted criminal can instantly be picked out of a cr owd of thousands of people. All that’s required is an image in a database to compare with the image of any number of people in a crowd. Ordinary people, too, are using facial recognition to unlock their phones, their computers and other devices.63.It is convenient, easy to operate and it also relieves us of the need to memorize passwords. However, a device will require a password in the rare event that it doesn’t, for whatever reason, recognize the user’s face.There are numerous concerns about the use of facial recognition. 64.The installation of more and more cameras in public and private places is now part of everyday life. This means people can be observed and recognized wherever they go. Cameras may make public spaces safer, but keeping law-abiding(守法的) citizens under constant watch is disturbing too many.In the age of the coronavirus and the wid espread wearing of masks, facial recognition systems are having some difficulty. A mask covers many of the facial data points used by recognition software to confirm a person’s id entity. 65.That could affect how d ependable it is.A.The major concern is that it threatens privacy.B.The cameras may need to be replaced frequently.C.This all ows them to quickly confirm an individual’s identity.D.Personal facial recognition protection has strengths and weaknesses.E.In response, facial recognition systems are being trained to use less facial data.F.And now we’ve invented machines used to recognize faces for different purposes.G.In short, the data show that facial expressions are not universal signals of human emotion.Your education is very important. 66.By working on making a good impression each day, you can enjoy a positive relationship with your teacher.Greet your teacher with a smile.

This will all ow your teacher to see you as a reliable person who is respectful of their time.Never argue with your teacher. Though you may see some of your classmates being disrespectful (不尊敬的) to your teacher, try very hard not to become one of these people. Your teacher has been hired to guid e your education and to help you learn important knowledge that will be useful to you in life. Respect this and d o not argue with them. 69.Foll ow instructions. Your teacher likely has a set of rul es that you must obey in class in addition to the regular school rules. 70.If your teacher feels that you keep yourself out of trouble, they will view you more positively and your relationship will strengthen.A.Come to class on time.B.Apologize for past mistakes.C.Be sure to make a note of these rules and to keep them.D.Every day, they have to work with lots of different students.E.So it is important to buil d a good relationship with your teacher.F.However, d o ask questions if you are confused about something.G.Anything you need to say to a friend can be said after class or during a break.Here are some methods that can effectively help you learn.Don't expect to learn much by just watching, listening or reading. Instead, try to build your own story. For exampl e, you can be driven to a store 20 times and still not know the road. 71..Go over a piece of information repeatedly. Most of the information we absorb in a typical day is not only forgettable. 72.. Do you really want to remember forever what all the strangers you passed today on the sid ewalk were wearing? So how does your brain know whether something should be put into your l ong-term memory or not? Repeat it over a period of time!73.. If you try to go over it too late, the original memory will be nowhere to be found. Butif you wait only a few minutes to review it, it's too quick for you to signal your brain to put it into long-term memory.74.. Flashcards, whether they're physical or virtual, are a great way to do memory practice because they help space out attempts to remember, and you can come back to them easily periodically(周期性地).But you have to foll ow certain rules in order to make better use of the flashcards. The No.1 rule is that you need to guess the answer before l ooking at the card. Even if you think it is hopeless for you to remember, try.75..Wait l ong enough between practice sessions. You have to make it a struggle to remember.A.Actually, it should be quickly forgottenB.The second rule is that you need to make it hardC.Used in the right way, flashcards can be of great helpD.Therefore, repetition is very important for l ong-term memoryE.But once or twice you try to drive there and you'll know the road by heartF.Burning an idea into memory by going over it again and again in a single sessionG.The key for repetition is that you can neither wait too long nor try to review it too fastUseful Memory StrategiesForm associations between new and remembered information. If you can link new ideas with previously established ones, then you can increase the chance that new memories will be formed. Try coming up with a familiar picture, song, joke, or rhyme that you can associate with the new material. 76.Repeat new facts as soon as you come across them. It may be boring, but simply repeating new information over and over in different ways will help it stick in your brain better, especially if you space out the repetition over time.77.Then speak the d efinition out loud a coupl e times, and try writing it down once or twice.Teach someone else the information you’re trying to learn. 78.Find a classmate orco-worker who needs to l earn the same information, form a study group, and take turns teaching each other different concepts. Alternately, ask your friends if they’re willing to learn。

高考英语七选五专项练习5.0学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________一、阅读理解Body shaming involves humiliating (羞辱) someone making negative comments about their body size or shape. 1 You may feel unhappy with how your body looks and judge yourself unkindly. However, there are ways to overcome the problem and build body positivity.2 Taking care of yourself is not a selfish act; it’s necessary for your personal well-being. Exercise, eat healthy food, enjoy the company of people who care about you, and spend some time outdoors to refresh your body and your mind.Replacing negative self-talk with positive thoughts can be useful for making you feel better about yourself and your body. 3 For example, if you have beautiful hair or eyes, this is just as important as the features you dislike or that others try to ridicule.Social media often emphasizes physical appearance and makes it easy to post hurtful comments about others. Cutting down or stepping away from social media can give you an opportunity to connect in-person and participate in other activities that lift your mood. Communicating face-to-face is nature’s cure of stress. 4Reach out to others for guidance and support and let them know what you have been experiencing. 5 Having a safe outlet to express your emotions can help you cope with the distress and humiliation of being body shamed.A.Treat yourself with kindness and love.B.Don’t hide or isolate yourself from others.C.This type of criticism can be made to others or yourself.D.Shift your focus to the things that you like about yourself.E.Being physically active is also important for your overall health and well-being.F.It’s crucial to find someone you trust and feel comfortable sharing your feelings with. G.While nobody is immune to social pressures to look good, any comments about your body are unnecessary.The process of sorting through my childhood stuff started out easy. At first, I was excited totoss everything out. But as the bedroom emptied out, I felt a creeping sense of sadness. My childhood was over, and I entered full-fledged (成熟的) adulthood. And I wondered: 6 In short, yes.7 That’s because going through your old stuff can possibly stir up difficult emotions or sweet memories. Whatever emotions pop up, accept them, and it will help you process it faster.Before you start sorting, determine how much storage space you’re willing to devote to your childhood items. 8 You may have limited space for old stuff. But listen to your heart. If you’re sentimental and you want to hold on to stuff, hold on to it. You canal ways get rid of it later.During this process, it can be useful to have someone you trust by your side. They can help you honor the memories associated with each object and let go. 9 They know which life experiences mean the most to you.And you don’t have to pile your childhood stuff in the attic (阁楼). 10 You can take photos, which you can revisit any time on your phone or computer. Or you can turn them into an art project and display it in a shadow box.Remember, there is someone who care enough to hold on all old stuff for you. This is a value of all of the time and effort and money your parents have poured into you. This has been saved in love.A.Get creative and think outside the box.B.Could my childhood memories be regained?C.You can find meaning in your life experiences.D.Loved ones can also help you decide what to save.E.But it will probably still be a bittersweet experience.F.That will help you figure out how much stuff you can keep.G.Was there a less heartbreaking, more strategic way to do this?Many people fear failure and try to avoid it even when they have the opportunity to succeed. They won’t attempt something if they think they might fail. 11Research the alternatives. 12 When you don’t know-what you’re dealing with,potential consequences seem far worse than they actually are. Take the power out fear by understanding it. Research all the potential outcomes(both good and bad) so you genuinely understand the risk of failure and benefits of success. Analyzing these outcomes will help you see through the fear of failure and make a logical decision.Another way to overcome the fear of failure is creating a contingency plan (应急计划).13 Daring to fail doesn’t mean you have to risk losing it all. If you manage risk intelligently, you can capture the benefits of high-risk opportunities while leaving yourself a safety net.Taking action is the best way to reduce fear and build confidence. As soon as you do, you’ll begin accumulating experience and knowledge. 14 . It’s like jumping off a cliff into a lake-after you do it once, you see that the water is safe and each time afterwards is easy. Start off with small steps and build up your confidence until the fear of failure is manageable.All in all, failure and success are two sides of the same coin. 15 By adopting these strategics, you can learn to embrace failure as a stepping stone towards success. A.Understand the benefits of failure.B.Everything is hardest the first time.C.You should be prepared for the worst.D.The unknown is a major source of fear.E.One truly cannot exist without the other.F.The following strategies will help you overcome the fear of failure.G.Even if your first option fails, a solid Plan B can maintain the status quo (现状).Things To Remember On Y our First Solo Travel AdventureIf you’ve ever thought about just taking a trip yourself instead of waiting for someone to join you, you’re not alone. 16 However, do you count yourself among the many who have tried it? If you’re planning your own solo trip, here are four important things to keep in mind.17 Since you’re traveling solo, how you choose to explore it is entirely up to you. This is your chance to do whatever you want whenever you want because this time, you’re running the show.Don’t be afraid to talk to random people.

高考英语《阅读理解+七选五+应用文写作》真题含答案Ⅰ.阅读理解Asouthern Alaska kicked off Fat Bear Week, when fans compare before and after photos of bears to vote for the one they think has gained the most weight before they bed down for the long freezing winter. Bear 747, also known as “Bear Force One”,took the firstplace spot with 68,105 votes. It weighed around 1,400 pounds.Fat Bear Week started in 2014. At first, it was just Fat Bear Tuesday. Mike Fitz, a former park keeper at Katmai, noticed that live webcams showing the bears generated a lot of online comments, so he let people vote for their favorite fat bear on the Internet. The oneday event attracted 1,700 votes. In 2015 , it was extended to a week. Last year, nearly 800,000 people got involved, turning it into a global campaign.The contest serves two main purposes. First, some of America's national parks are in remote and undeveloped areas, which are difficult or costly to reach. Fat Bear Week brings Alaska's wilderness to fans' computer screens. “ It's not limited to the fortunate few who can go to the river anymore,” Fitz said.Second, Fat Bear Week brings attention to the bears and the ecosystems they live in. “ The 2,200 bears of Katmai are strong for feeding on some of the healthiest salmon (三文鱼) in the world,” said Sara Wolman, a former park keeper. Salmon in the Pacific Northwest are suffering from overfishing, dam construction and warming rivers due to climate change. Luckily, Brooks River, which Katmai's bears like to fish in, has been free from these threats so far.Fat Bear Week has spread like viruses. Fans and creators say it's because it shows a conservation success story. For one week, people don't have to focus on climate change or habitat loss. “ Maybe things aren't super great all the time in the world,” said Felicia Jimenez, who is a current Katmai keeper. “ But there are some really fat bears in Alaska. ”【语篇解读】本文介绍了位于阿拉斯加州南部的卡特迈国家公园和自然保护区举办的“胖熊周”活动。

often:ability,money,and time.①Money is a topic I'11savefor another day.So today I want to give you some wisdom about how to make the most of the time you spend in the kitchen.Here are three tips for great cooking on a tight schedule:1.Think ahead.The moments when I think cooking is a pain are when I'm already hungry and there,s nothing ready to eat.So think ahead of the coming week.When will you have time to cook?Do you have the right materials already?②__________2.Make your time worth it.When you do find time to cook a meal,make the most of it and save yourself time later on.Are you making one loaf of bread?③It takes around the same amount of time to make more of something.So save yourself the effort for a future meal.3.④This may surprise you,but one of the best tools for making cooking worth your time is experimentation.It gives you the chance to hit upon new ideas and recipes that can work well with your appetite and schedule.The more you learn and the more you try,the more ability you have to take control of your food and your schedule.Hopefully that gives you a good start.⑤And don't let a busy schedule discourage you from making some great changes in the way you eat and live!A.Try new things.B.Ability is easily improved.C.Make three or four instead.D.Understand your food better.E.Cooking is a burden for many people.F.Let cooking and living simply be a joy rather than a burden.G.A little time planning ahead can save a lot of work later on.7.Training for a marathon requires careful preparation and steady, gradual increases in the length of the runs.①,buy the bestfitting,best-built running shoes you can find.No one can say which brand will work best for you or feel best on your feet,so you have to rely on your experience and on the feel of each pair as you shop.When you have found shoes that seem right,walk in them for a few days to double-check thefit.②.As always,you should stretch(伸展)at least ten minutes before each run to prevent injuries.During the first week,do not think about distance,but run five minutes longer each day.③,it is wise to take a day off to rest.But during the next week,set a goal of at least a mile and a half per run.(4). After two weeks,start timing yourself.⑤.Depending on the kind of race you plan to enter,you can set up a timetable for the remaining weeks before the race.A.After six daysB.For a good marathon runnerC.Before you begin your trainingD.With each day,increase the distance by a half mileE.If they still feel good,you can begin running in themF.Time spent for preparation raises the quality of trainingG.Now you are ready to figure out a goal of improving distance and time8.Eyesight plays a very important role in our daily life.Every waking moment,the eyes are working to see the world around us.Over forty percent of Americans worry about losing eyesight,but it's easy to include steps into ourdaily life to ensure healthy eyes.Here are five suggestions for a lifetime of healthy eyesight:•Schedule yearly exams.①.Experts advise parents to bring babies6to12months of age to the doctor for a careful check.The good newsis that millions of children now can have yearly eye exams and following treatment,including eyeglasses.•Protect against UV rays(紫夕卜线).Long-term stay in the sun creates risk to your eyes.No matter what the season is,it,s extremely important to wear sunglasses.②.•Give your eyes a break.Two-thirds of Americans spend up to seven hours a day using computers or other digital products.(3).Experts recommend that people practice the20/20/20rule:every20minutes,take a20-second break and look at something20feet away.•④.As part of a healthy diet,eat more fruits and vegetables each day.Vitamins(维生素)C and E help protect eyesight and promote eye health.•Practice safe wear and care of contact lenses(隐形眼镜).Many Americans use contact lenses to improve their eyesight.While some follow the medical guidance for wearing contact lenses,many are breaking the rules and putting their eyesight at risk.⑤.Otherwise,you may have problems such as red eyes,pain in the eyes,or a more serious condition.A.Eat your greens.B.Eye care should begin early in life.C.They can properly protect your eyes.D.Stay in good shape by taking more vitamins.E.Parents usually don't care about their own eyesight.F.Always follow the doctor,s advice for appropriate wear.G.This frequent eye activity increases the risk for eye tiredness.9.If you are already making the time to exercise,it is good indeed!With such busy lives,it can be hard to try and find the time to work out.①Working out in the morning provides additional benefits beyond being physically fit.•Your productivity is improved.Exercising makes you more awake and ready to handle whatever is ahead of you for the day.②•Your metabolism(新陈代谢)gets a head start.(3)If you work out in the mornings,then you will be getting the calorie(卡路里)burning benefits for the whole day,not in your sleep.■④Studies found that people who woke up early for exercise slept better than those who exercised in the evening.Exercise energizes you,so it is more difficult to relax and have a peaceful sleep when you are very excited..⑤If you work out bright and early in the morning,you will be more likely to stick to healthy food choices throughout the day.Who would want to ruin their good workout by eating junk food?You will want to continue to focus on positive choices.There are a lot of benefits to working out,especially in the mornings.Set your alarm clock an hour early and push yourself to work out!You will feel energized all day long.A.You will stick to your diet.B.Your quality of sleep improves.C.You prefer healthy food to fast food.D.

A garden that's just right for youHave you ever visited a garden that seemed just right for you, where the atmosphere of the garden appeared to total more than the sum (总和)of its parts? ①. But it doesn' t happen by accident. It starts with looking inside yourself and understanding who you are with respect to the natural world and how you approach the gardening process.②__________Some people may think that a garden is no more than plants, flowers,patterns and masses of color.

I was ten when I first sat with my grandmother behind the cashier(收银台)in her general store. 71 I quickly learned the importance of treating customers politely and saying “thank you.”At first I was paid in candy. 72 I worked every day after school, and during the summer and on weekends and holidays from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. My father helped me set up a bank account. 73By the time I was 12, My grandmother thought I had done such a good job that she promoted me to selling cosmetics(化妆品).

Even though I was just a kid, women would ask me such things as “What color do you think I should wear?” I took a real interest in their questions and wa s able to translate what they wanted into makeup(化妆)ideas. 74The job taught me a valuable lesson: to be a successful sales person, you didn’t need to be a Rocket scientist—you needed to be a great listener. 75 Except they are no longer women purchasing cosmetics from me; instead, they are kids who tell me which toys they would like to see designed and developed.A.Later I received 50 cents an hour.B.Before long, she let me sit there by myself.C.I ended my selling a record amount of cosmetics.D.Today I still carry that lesson with me: I listen to customers.E.

How to Do Man-on-the-Street InterviewsThe man-on-the-street interview is an interview in which a reporter hits the streets with a cameraman to interview people on the spot. 1 But with these tips, your first man-on-the-street interview experience can be easy.·When your boss or professor sends you out to do man-on-the-street interviews for a story, think about the topic and develop a list of about ten general questions relating to it. For example, if your topic is about environmental problemsin America, you might ask,“Why do you think environmental protection is important in America?” 2·Hit the streets with confidence. 3 Say,“Excuse me, I work for XYZ News, and I was wondering if you could share your opinion about this topic.”This is a quick way to get people to warm up to you.·Move on to the next person if someone tells you she is not interested in talking on camera. Don’t get discouraged.· 4 Each interview that you get on the street shouldn’t be longer than ten minutes. As soon as you get the answer you need, move on to the next person. Make sure that as you go from interview to interview, you are getting a variety of answers. If everyone is giving you the same answer, you won’t be able to use it. A safe number of interviews to conduct is about six to ten. 5·If your news station or school requires interviewees to sign release forms to appear on the air, don’t leave work without them.A.Limit your time.B.As you approach people, be polite.C.If you don’t own a camera, you can buy one.D.For new reporters, this can seem like a challenging task.E.To get good and useful results, ask them the same question.F.That number of interviews should give you all the answers you need.G.With a question like this, you will get more than a “Yes”or “No”reply.1. 2. 3. 4. 5.Passage 3(2016课标Ⅰ)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
