3、同频练习
Passage A
Rule 3 1 .
When everyone is talking, who will be listening? Listen to understand, not to reply. Do not be too quick to judge what you hear. Everyone should have the equal chance to voice their own opinions.

A.Listen and brainstorm
B.Be quiet while listening
C.Both will end up as losers
D.If your friend continues, just walk away
Passage B
Read it out loud
Hearing yourself repeat the information helps you remember it easier. 2 . Go slowly through the text so you don’t skip over anything important. Try pointing at the words as you read them to help you to remember even better. The more you read the information loud, the easier you can remember it.
C.You can find many practice tests online
D.Read aloud if you’re studying from a book or website
E.After rewriting it, you will be able to memorize it better
F.Ask them if they understand or if they need a better explanation

F. However, that doesn't mean opportunities aren't available
G. Find yourself an exercise friend will help encourage you to become more active
Passage D
With the approach of summer vacation, if you ever had a thought that biking might be for you, July might be the perfect month to try it out. Regular biking is beneficial to your mental and physical health. 1 So here are some tips that can guide the new cyclists along.
Prepare essential necessities. You don’t need a ton of equipment to get started. Once you’ve got your bike and helmet, consider how to carry all your belongings. That could be a simple backpack, but it could also be a basket on your bike. 2 In the summer, athletic shorts and a T-shirt are often good choices.
3 Don’t try biking somewhere for the first time when you’re in a hurry or have an important meeting. Bike somewhere closer and low-risk, like a quick run to the store or to a friend's backyard. Work your way up to more farther destinations.
Adopt a relaxed mindset (心态) and seek help. It`s admitted that mentality, of taking it easy, can be extended to the route itself. Try out different routes to find the one you’re most comfortable with. Visit a bike shop to get maps of your city’s bike paths. Ask friends who bikes for suggestions or to ride with you. 4 .
Use a bike lane if possible. The League of American Bicyxclists says bikers should try to give cars 3 feet of space. But cyclists shouldn’t ride in the gutter (排水沟) to keep their distance. 5 Don’t make drivers try to squeeze (挤压) past you. It’s about maintaining a balance for safety, and that’s not always easy.
A.Start with a short ride.
B.Start with a familiar destination.
C.If the road is too narrow, ride in the middle of the lane.
D.Drivers also play a huge role in keeping a safe distance.
E.Beyond these main items, it’s also key to think about clothes.
F.Believe it or not, people often are glad to share their knowledge.
G.But like any new habit, starting to bike regularly is easier said than done.

2、阅读练习
Passage A
If you struggle to meet new people or join in a conversation at social events, it might be that your body language is sending the message to others to stay away. 1 ? Below are some tips to get you started.
Smile. Although it is possible to overdo smiling, generally it is better to smile than frown (皱眉). Try to find things that really make you happy or laugh and your smile will come across as natural rather than forced.
2 . Make sure that you aren’t using objects to shield (遮住) yourself from others. At a party, hold your drink at your side instead of close to your chest (胸膛). Keeping objects between you and others makes you appear guarded and closed.
Use eye contact. When you do end up talking with someone, be sure to maintain eye contact. Avoiding eye contact makes you appear untrustworthy or disinterested. If direct eye contact feels hard, try looking at only one eye at a time, or at a part between a person’s eyes. 3.
Avoid nervous habits. Even though you might be nervous, avoid the habits that go with it. 4 . Don’t play with your pen or the change in your pocket. Keep your hands relaxed at your sides or use them to gesture (做手势) when making conversation.
5 . Say nice things about other people instead of mean things. Approach others and include those who seem to be left out. Be a positive person and you will attract other positive people to you.
Although it may feel unnatural at first, with time you should start to feel more open and confident as a result of changing your body language.
A.Avoid blocks
B.Use objects on hand
C.They won’t be able to tell the difference
D.Apart from body language, always be positive
E.Stop touching your face or playing with your hair
F.How can you read different types of body language properly
G.How can you improve your body language to appear more approachable
Passage B
We’ve all been there—you’ve sent a message and it’s marked “read”, but you haven’t heard anything back. What’s the deal? While being left on read (已读不回) can be confusing, it’s also pretty common. 6 Here are a few tips.
Expect the best. Remind yourself that the person is probably just busy. Ask yourself if you actually know their schedule. There could be some time commitments you aren’t aware of. Here are a few other reasons for a delayed response. 7 They put their phone away to focus on work or school. They accidentally forgot to reply. Maybe they thought about what they wanted to say but didn’t actually text it.
Resist the temptation (诱惑) to double-text. 8 If you send a lot of follow-up texts, it’ll be hard for them to keep up and they might get stressed. Leave them with just one text to catch up on—the other person will probably appreciate your patience.
Read over your previous messages. See if there are any confusing texts that you need to clarify. It’s okay if you review your message again and notice that it might have been a little unclear—it happens! 9
10 Keep it out of sight and get some peace of mind. Don’t let it upset or confuse you. If you get your mind off any notifications, you’ll be able to brainstorm new ways to spend your time.
A.Put your phone away.
B.Fix your attention closely on text responses.
C.Give them a little space so they have a chance to reply.
D.They want to give you a longer response but can’t right now.
E.Ask yourself why being left on “read” frustrates or confuses you.
F.You can keep the situation from bothering you until you hear back.
G.You might feel relieved when you find something that is easy to misread.

2、阅读练习
Passage A
If you struggle to meet new people or join in a conversation at social events, it might be that your body language is sending the message to others to stay away. 1 ? Below are some tips to get you started.
Smile. Although it is possible to overdo smiling, generally it is better to smile than frown (皱眉). Try to find things that really make you happy or laugh and your smile will come across as natural rather than forced.
2 . Make sure that you aren’t using objects to shield (遮住) yourself from others. At a party, hold your drink at your side instead of close to your chest (胸膛). Keeping objects between you and others makes you appear guarded and closed.
Use eye contact. When you do end up talking with someone, be sure to maintain eye contact. Avoiding eye contact makes you appear untrustworthy or disinterested. If direct eye contact feels hard, try looking at only one eye at a time, or at a part between a person’s eyes. 3.
Avoid nervous habits. Even though you might be nervous, avoid the habits that go with it. 4 . Don’t play with your pen or the change in your pocket. Keep your hands relaxed at your sides or use them to gesture (做手势) when making conversation.
5 . Say nice things about other people instead of mean things. Approach others and include those who seem to be left out. Be a positive person and you will attract other positive people to you.
Although it may feel unnatural at first, with time you should start to feel more open and confident as a result of changing your body language.
A.Avoid blocks
B.Use objects on hand
C.They won’t be able to tell the difference
D.Apart from body language, always be positive
E.Stop touching your face or playing with your hair
F.How can you read different types of body language properly
G.How can you improve your body language to appear more approachable
【答案】1.G 2.A 3.C 4.E 5.D
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些改善肢体语言以显得更平易近人的方法。
1.根据上文“If you struggle to meet new people or join in a conversation at social events, it might be that your body language is sending the message to others to stay away.(如果你在社交场合很难结识新朋友或加入对话,可能是你的肢体语言向别人传达了远离的信息)”可知,上文提出了在社交场合中肢体语言可能会给人留下不好的印象这一问题。下文“Below are some tips to get you started.(以下是一些让你开始的建议)”则提出了一些改善肢体语言的建议。G 选项“How can you improve your body language to appear more approachable(如何改善你的肢体语言,让自己看起来更平易近人)”位于段中,承上启下,既承接上文提到的肢体语言给人留下不好印象的问题,又引出下文改善肢体语言的建议。故选G。
2.根据下文“Make sure that you aren’t using objects to shield (遮住) yourself from others. At a party, hold your drink at your side instead of close to your chest (胸膛). Keeping objects between you and others makes you appear guarded and closed.(确保你没有用物品来遮住自己不被他人看到。在聚会上,把你的饮料放在你身边,而不是靠近你的胸部。在你和其他人之间放东西会让你显得有戒心和封闭)”可知下文说明在社交场合中要避免用物品隔开自己和他人,要保持开放的姿态。A 选项“Avoid blocks (避免阻隔)”位于段首,对下文起总结概括的作用,且与后文的“shield(遮住)”和“guarded and closed”相呼应。故选A。
3.根据上文“If direct eye contact feels hard, try looking at only one eye at a time, or at a part between a person’s eyes.(如果直接的眼神交流感觉很难,试着一次只看一只眼睛,或者看一个人的眼睛之间的部分)”可知,上文建议在与人交谈时,如果感觉直接的眼神交流困难,可以采取的方式。C 选项“They won’t be able to tell the difference (他们不会看出区别的)”则说明即使没有直接的眼神交流,别人也不会察觉,与上文构成因果关系。故选C。
4.根据上文“Even though you might be nervous, avoid the habits that go with it.(尽管你可能会紧张,但要避免随之而来的习惯)”可知上文提到要避免紧张时的习惯。E 选项“Stop touching your face or playing with your hair (停止触摸你的脸或玩弄你的头发)”是具体的紧张时的习惯,对上文起举例说明的作用。故选E。
5.根据下文“Say nice things about other people instead of mean things. Approach others and include those who seem to be left out. Be a positive person and you will attract other positive people to you.(说别人的好话而不是刻薄的话。接近他人,包括那些似乎被忽视的人。做一个积极的人,你会吸引其他积极的人)”可知下文建议要做一个积极的人,多说别人的好话。D 选项“Apart from body language, always be positive (除了肢体语言,永远要积极)”位于段首,对下文起总结概括的作用,且positive与后文的nice和positive相呼应。故选D。
Passage B
We’ve all been there—you’ve sent a message and it’s marked “read”, but you haven’t heard anything back. What’s the deal? While being left on read (已读不回) can be confusing, it’s also pretty common. 6 Here are a few tips.
Expect the best. Remind yourself that the person is probably just busy. Ask yourself if you actually know their schedule. There could be some time commitments you aren’t aware of. Here are a few other reasons for a delayed response. 7 They put their phone away to focus on work or school. They accidentally forgot to reply. Maybe they thought about what they wanted to say but didn’t actually text it.
Resist the temptation (诱惑) to double-text. 8 If you send a lot of follow-up texts, it’ll be hard for them to keep up and they might get stressed. Leave them with just one text to catch up on—the other person will probably appreciate your patience.
Read over your previous messages. See if there are any confusing texts that you need to clarify. It’s okay if you review your message again and notice that it might have been a little unclear—it happens! 9
10 Keep it out of sight and get some peace of mind. Don’t let it upset or confuse you. If you get your mind off any notifications, you’ll be able to brainstorm new ways to spend your time.
A.Put your phone away.
B.Fix your attention closely on text responses.
C.Give them a little space so they have a chance to reply.
D.They want to give you a longer response but can’t right now.
E.Ask yourself why being left on “read” frustrates or confuses you.
F.You can keep the situation from bothering you until you hear back.
G.You might feel relieved when you find something that is easy to misread.
【答案】6.F 7.D 8.C 9.G 10.A
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了当别人阅读你的信息后,不回复你时,要学会心平气和的面对,不要让社交软件影响到你的生活。
6.根据后文“Here are a few tips.(这里有一些建议)”以及前文“it’s also pretty common.(这种情况很常见)”可知,空处应该是承上启下说明可以应用这些建议避免被影响,所以F项“You can keep the situation from bothering you until you hear back.(你可以避免这种情况困扰你)”符合文意。故选F项。
7.根据上文“Here are a few other reasons for a delayed response.(以下是延迟响应的其他一些原因。)”以及下文“They put their phone away to focus on work or school. They accidentally forgot to reply. Maybe they thought about what they wanted to say but didn’t actually text it. (他们把手机收起来,专注于工作或学习。他们不小心忘了回复。也许他们想到了他们想说什么,但实际上并没有发短信。)”可知,空处是延迟响应的可能原因,与D项“They want to give you a longer response but can’t right now. (他们想给你更长的回复,但现在不能)”上下文一致,符合文意。故选D项。
8.根据前文“Resist the temptation to double- text.(不要信息轰炸对方)”以及后文“If you send a lot of follow- up texts, it’ll be hard for them to keep up and they might get stressed. Leave them with just one text to catch up on—the other person will probably appreciate your patience.(如果你发了很多后续短信,他们很难跟上,他们可能会感到压力。只给他们留一条信息,让他们跟上进度——对方可能会感激你的耐心)”可知,本段讲述不要一直给对方发信息,要给对方一些时间,让他们跟上你的信息,所以C项“Give them a little space so they have a chance to reply.(给他们一点空间,让他们有机会回答)”符合文意。故选C项。
9.根据段首句“Read over your previous messages. (阅读你之前的信息)”,及上文“See if there are any confusing texts that you need to clarify. It’s okay if you review your message again and notice that it might have been a little unclear—it happens! (看看是否有什么令人困惑的文本需要澄清。如果你再次查看你的信息,并注意到它可能有点不清楚,这是没有关系的——这种情况发生了!)可知,再次查看信息可能会发现一些被误读的东西,与G项“You might feel relieved when you find something that is easy to misread.(可能会感到宽慰,当你发现了一些容易被误读的东西)”上下文一致,符合文意。故选G项。
10.根据下句“Keep it out of sight and get some peace of mind.(把它放在你看不到的地方,让你的内心平静下来)”以及后文“Don’t let it upset or confuse you. If you get your mind off any notifications, you’ll be able to brainstorm new ways to spend your time.(不要让它困扰或迷惑你。如果你不去想任何通知,你就能头脑风暴出新的打发时间的方法)”可知,本段主题是把手机放到一边,眼不见,心不烦。与其纠结为什么会被“已读不回”,不如放下手机,做些更有意义的事。所以A项“Put your phone away.(把手机收起来)”起到概括作用,符合文意。故选A项。
