There are plenty of children, however, who do not have their own toy collection. This is where you can make a difference by doing your part to support children in need. To make this easier, we’ve rounded up a list of organizations that are always on the lookout for toy donations (捐赠). Second Chance Toys Founded in 2006, Second Chance Toys recycles plastic toys and donates them to community organizations that service children in need. The organization partners with a number of drop-off locations across the U. S. You can find a location near you, register as a donor (捐赠人), sign up for a time to drop off your toys, and you’re good to go! The organization only accepts clean plastic toys with no small or missing parts. Ronald McDonald House The Ronald McDonald House houses thousands of children and families who experience severe medical care. The organization does not accept used toys, but if you have any new and unopened toys, you can donate them to one of hundreds of locations across the U. S. Stuffed Animals for Emergencies Stuffed Animals for Emergencies (SAFE)accepts stuffed animal donations and gives them to children in need who have faced difficult times. SAFE accepts new and used toys, no matter how old they are. The organization also accepts donations of old items like blankets, books and kids clothes. You can find a chapter in your area and sign up to host a stuffed animal drive. 1. How can people donate toys to Second Chance Toys? A. By mailing toys directly to a location. B. By scheduling a drop-off time for toys. C. By donating toys at an organized event. D. By finding a partner at a nearby location. 2. Where can people donate used books according to this text? A. Second Chance Toys. B. Ronald McDonald House. C. Stuffed Animals for Emergencies. D. All locations across the U. S. 3. What do the three organizations have in common? A. They recycle toys from sellers. B. They have locations worldwide. C. They accept toys to help children. D. They are set up by local communities. 【答案】1. B 2. C 3. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。主要介绍的是三个一直在寻找玩具捐赠组织的相关信息。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据Second Chance Toys部分中的“You can find a location near you, register as a donor (捐赠人), sign up for a time to drop-off your toys, and you’re good to go! ( 你可以找到一个离你很近的地点，注册为捐赠者，报名一个时间来放下你的玩具，然后你就可以去了！)”可知，给Second Chance Toys组织捐赠玩具需要提前约定好时间。故选B项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Stuffed Animals for Emergencies部分中的“The organization also accepts donations of old items like blankets, books and kids clothes. (该组织还接受毯子、书籍和儿童衣服等旧物品的捐赠。)”可知，该组织还接受书籍，所以你可以给该组织捐赠旧书。故选C项。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据首段中的“As kids grow up, there’s a good chance that — if you’re a parent — you have a surplus of toys in your home. There are plenty of children, however, who do not have their own toy collection. This is where you can make a difference by doing your part to support children in need. To make this easier, we’ve rounded up a list of organizations that are always on the lookout for toy donations (捐赠). (随着孩子的成长，如果你是父母，家里很有可能会有多余的玩具。然而，有很多孩子没有自己的玩具收藏。在这里，你可以尽自己的一份力量来帮助有需要的孩子。为了方便起见，我们收集了一份一直在寻找玩具捐赠的组织名单。)”可知，本文主要介绍的是三个在寻找玩具捐赠的组织机构，人们可以将家里的多余玩具捐给这些组织机构去帮助有需要的孩子，结合下文中对三个在寻找玩具捐赠的机构组织相关信息的介绍可知，这三个组织的共同之处在于他们接受玩具来帮助孩子。故选C项。 B 20-year-old Edgar McGregor decided to visit his local park, Eaton Canyon, day in and day out to pick up as much litter as he could fit in two buckets (提桶). Now, over 589 days and 19,000 Twitter followers later, he is more passionate (热爱的) than ever about his task to save the planet! Edgar found out that Los Angeles would be the host of the 2028 Summer Olympic Games. Knowing the state of the national forest at the time, he feared that its grounds that were full of litter would make the city a “global embarrassment,” so he decided to make cleaning it up his new passion project. As time went on, he began documenting his progress on Twitter. Soon, he began encouraging others to start park cleanup projects of their own. As part of southern California’s Angeles National Forest, Eaton Canyon can see quite a bit of daily foot traffic. On one particularly busy day, Edgar spent five hours picking up litter and came away with over 1,000 pounds of rubbish. Rain or shine, Edgar headed over to carry out his task. He worked through conditions like snowstorms, a record heat wave, and even a forest fire on the opposite side of the park. The more he did, the more treasures he discovered. In addition to a lot of old iPhones and cans, Edgar collected enough recyclables to earn around 30 dollars every few weeks, which he would donate to nonprofits. Recently, Edgar began noticing that the top-littered areas in his park were becoming few and far between. At one point, he spent four hours moving around the park and only returned with two buckets. Edgar plans to return to Eaton Canyon two or three times a week to keep up with the maintenance, but he is excited to start expanding his reach to new locations. Though he realizes this doesn’t mean his journey is complete, he is excited to have already achieved so much! 4. Why is the 2028 Summer Olympic Games mentioned? A. To describe what made Edgar famous. B. To explain why Edgar loved Los Angeles. C. To introduce what inspired Edgar to start his project. D. To discuss why Edgar started exploring the national forest. 5. Which of the following can best describe Edgar? A Determined and caring. B. Creative and influential. C. Talented and productive. D. Adventurous and sociable. 6. What is Edgar’s next plan? A. Encouraging others to join in his cleanup. B. Making a journey to clean Eaton Canyon. C. Cleaning up other parts of the national forest. D. Returning to the parks he has already cleaned. 7. What is the text mainly about? A. A hero for the environment. B. A way of dealing with litter. C. A local development project. D. A huge personal achievement. 【答案】4. C 5. A 6. C 7. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文，讲述了20岁的Edgar McGregor如何受到洛杉矶将举办2028年夏季奥运会的启发，开始了他的公园清理项目，并通过社交媒体Twitter记录和鼓励更多人参与，最终对环境做出了积极的贡献。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Edgar found out that Los Angeles would be the host of the 2028 Summer Olympic Games. Knowing the state of the national forest at the time, he feared that its grounds that were full of litter would make the city a 'global embarrassment,' so he decided to make cleaning it up his new passion project(Edgar发现洛杉矶将是2028年夏季奥运会的主办城市。考虑到当时国家森林的状况，他担心满是垃圾的地面会让这座城市成为“全球的尴尬”，所以他决定把清理垃圾作为自己的新爱好项目)”可知，提到2028年夏季奥运会是为了介绍激发Edgar开始他的项目的原因。故选C项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据原文第四段“Rain or shine, Edgar headed over to carry out his task. He worked through conditions like snowstorms, a record heat wave, and even a forest fire on the opposite side of the park.(无论晴雨，Edgar都会去执行他的任务。他在暴风雪、创纪录的热浪，甚至是公园另一侧的森林大火等条件下工作)”以及第五段第一句“The more he did, the more treasures he discovered. In addition to a lot of old iPhones and cans, Edgar collected enough recyclables to earn around 30 dollars every few weeks, which he would donate to nonprofits(他做的越多，发现的宝藏就越多。除了很多旧iPhone和罐头，Edgar还收集了足够的可回收物品，每几周就能赚30美元左右，他会捐给非营利组织)”可知，Edgar不管什么天气都坚持捡垃圾，并且会把通过捡垃圾赚到的钱捐给慈善机构，可以推理出Edgar是一个有决心的、关心他人的人。故选A项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Edgar plans to return to Eaton Canyon two or three times a week to keep up with the maintenance, but he is excited to start expanding his reach to new locations(埃德加计划每周回Eaton Canyon两到三次以保持维护，但他也很兴奋地开始将他的影响力扩展到新的地点)”可知，埃德加的下一步计划是清理国家森林的其他部分。故选C项。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据原文第一段“20-year-old Edgar McGregor decided to visit his local park, Eaton Canyon, day in and day out to pick up as much litter as he could fit in two buckets. Now, over 589 days and 19,000 Twitter followers later, he is more passionate than ever about his task to save the planet!(20岁的Edgar McGregor决定每天去当地的Eaton Canyon公园捡尽可能多的垃圾，能装满两个提桶。如今，589天过去了，Twitter上有了19000名粉丝，他对拯救地球的任务比以往任何时候都更有热情)”可知，这篇文章主要介绍了一个环保英雄的故事。故选A项。 C If exercise seems like a great idea but you can never keep up a routine, it’s worth thinking about your exercise “mindset” — defined by psychologists as attitudes that shape our behaviour and reality. Research evidence is mounting that identifying some of our most habitual beliefs and replacing them with more adaptive ones can revive our ability to keep ourselves healthy. “Whether they’re true or not, mindsets have an effect,” says Dr. Alia Crum. “They change what we pay attention to, what we’re motivated to do, how we feel emotionally about what we’re doing and what we decide to prioritize (优先处理).” For instance, maybe you’ve tried to shame or scare yourself into going to the gym by reconsidering the health risks of not moving. Or perhaps you’ve aimed to get active by thinking of the long-term positive aspects of exercise: exercising regularly is 1.5 times more effective than taking medicine in easing depression, stress and anxiety. In contrast, thinking about exercise in all-or-nothing terms — “I need at least 30 minutes or there’s no point” — is the enemy of consistency. You want to use the mindset that “any and all movement is worth it, and everything counts,” says Dr. Michelle Segar, a researcher at the University of Michigan. Even a quick walk in the middle of a busy day is good for your well-being. If that doesn’t agree with your perfectionist tendencies (倾向), consider whether those tendencies have worked for you. Though strict standards may help some people, for many others they backfire, creating a cycle of failure. Besides bringing flexibility (灵活性) to how you view your movement, changing your “why” for getting active can also help keep up motivation. Rather than seeing workouts as a way to lose weight, it can help to focus on more immediately pleasant reasons to do it, like clearing your mind or feeling less stressed. Regarding the process of exercise as something that’s attractive makes a difference. The key is to focus on the pleasure that exercise can bring, and then pick an activity that is actually rewarding. 8. What’s the writing purpose of paragraph 1? A. To give a general description of mindset. B. To explain people’s confusion over mindset. C. To investigate the reasons for habitual behaviors. D. To stress the importance of adapting exercise mindset. 9. What can be learned about Alia Crum’s point of view? A. Everything matters in promoting one’s health. B. Mindsets affect one’s motivation and decision to act. C. It’s a good idea to make an exercise plan more flexible. D. It’s necessary to take some enjoyable and valuable exercise. 10. What does the author mean by the underlined sentence in paragraph 3? A. Strict standards require people to work out every day. B. Strict standards aren’t suitable for those perfectionists. C. Strict standards may lead to the opposite result for others. D. Strict standards stop people revising their plans regularly. 11. Which can be a suitable title for the text? A. A New Study of Exercise Routine B. Focus on the Pleasure of Exercise C. The Power of Your Exercise Mindset D. Exercise Mindset and Failures Connected 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. C 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了锻炼心态的重要性，心态对一个人行为和影响以及如何锻炼心态。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“If exercise seems like a great idea but you can never keep up a routine, it’s worth thinking about your exercise “mindset” — defined by psychologists as attitudes that shape our behaviour and reality. Research evidence is mounting that identifying some of our most habitual beliefs and replacing them with more adaptive ones can revive our ability to keep ourselves healthy.(如果锻炼看起来是个好主意，但你永远无法坚持下去，那就值得考虑一下你的锻炼“心态”——心理学家将其定义为塑造我们行为和现实的态度。越来越多的研究证据表明，识别出我们最习惯性的一些信念，并用更具适应性的信念取代它们，可以恢复我们保持健康的能力)”可推知，第一段的写作目的是强调调整锻炼心态的重要性。故选D。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“They change what we pay attention to, what we’re motivated to do, how we feel emotionally about what we’re doing and what we decide to prioritize (优先处理).(它们会改变我们的注意力，我们的动机，我们对我们正在做的事情的情感感受以及我们决定优先考虑的事情)”可知，心态影响一个人行动的动机和决定。故选B。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线句上文“Though strict standards may help some people”可知，though引导让步状语从句，表示转折关系，说明尽管严格的标准可能会帮助一些人，但对许多其他人来说，严格的标准可能会给其他人带来相反的结果，故划线句意思是“严格的标准可能会给其他人带来相反的结果”。故选C。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“If exercise seems like a great idea but you can never keep up a routine, it’s worth thinking about your exercise “mindset” — defined by psychologists as attitudes that shape our behaviour and reality. Research evidence is mounting that identifying some of our most habitual beliefs and replacing them with more adaptive ones can revive our ability to keep ourselves healthy.(如果锻炼看起来是个好主意，但你永远无法坚持下去，那就值得考虑一下你的锻炼“心态”——心理学家将其定义为塑造我们行为和现实的态度。越来越多的研究证据表明，识别出我们最习惯性的一些信念，并用更具适应性的信念取代它们，可以恢复我们保持健康的能力)”结合文章主要说明了锻炼心态的重要性，心态对一个人行为和影响以及如何锻炼心态。由此可知，C选项“锻炼心态的力量”最符合文章标题。故选C。 D Last September, a strange seismic signal (地震信号), lasting more than a week, attracted the attention of researchers around the world. It took 68 experts from 15 countries to discover the cause of the “USO” -Unidentified Seismic Object. The term USO is used informally by scientists for unusual seismic signals that can’t be explained, according to Kristian Svennevig, the lead author of a new report on this signal. From the start, scientists agreed this signal was not from an earthquake. Svennevig compared earthquakes to hitting piano keys with force, creating a mix of sounds that disappeared quickly. However, the unusual signal was like a single piano key producing a clear sound that lasted for nine days. Researchers tracked the signal to a huge snowslide in eastern Greenland’s Dickson fjord (峡湾), which was formed by melting (融化) ice due to climate change. Some 1.2 kilometers above the fjord, a mountaintop fell, driving more than 25 million cubic meters of rock and ice into the water-enough to fill 10,000 Olympic-sized swimming pools. The resulting tsunami (海啸) reached a height of 200 meters. The wave’s energy was caught in the rocky fjord, causing the water to move back and forth. This movement created the seismic signal. Svennevig noted that understanding this event took time. Even when they had ideas about what happened, they needed more information and improved models to support their findings. “We could only show that the tsunami was caught and kept moving inside the fjord for nine days after we used special army maps and improved our tsunami models,” Svennevig explained. To the researchers, the signal served as a wakeup call-similar events may happen with landfalls in other fjords or lakes due to climate change, which could lead to more landfalls and tsunamis in the Arctic. Understanding this event helps scientists learn more about how the Earth is changing due to global warming. There is still much to discover as we face the effects of climate change. 12. Why did Svennevig mention piano keys? A. To explain the strange signal. B. To introduce a musical instrument. C. To compare the sounds in nature. D. To give tips on playing the piano. 13. What caused the seismic signal? A. A wildfire. B. A snowslide. C A heavy rain. D. An earthquake. 14. What can we know from Svennevig’s words? A. It’ll take much time to receive the seismic signal. B. It’s slow for scientists to find an answer to the event. C. A group of scientists was caught in the deadly tsunami. D. The researchers will make public the recent finding soon. 15. What does the author stress in the text? A. Landfalls always happen along with tsunamis. B. Scientists should keep an open mind on opinions. C. This event may shape our view on various cultures. D. The signal gives us fair warning of climate change. 【答案】12. A 13. B 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是受气候变化影响，格陵兰岛东部迪克森峡湾的一次巨大雪崩，从而产生了地震信号。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第三段“Svennevig compared earthquakes to hitting piano keys with force, creating a mix of sounds that disappeared quickly. However, the unusual signal was like a single piano key producing a clear sound that lasted for nine days.(Svennevig将地震比作用力敲击钢琴键，创造出一种很快消失的混合声音。然而，这个不寻常的信号就像一个钢琴琴键发出的清晰声音，持续了九天。)”可知，Svennevig提到钢琴琴键来解释这个奇怪的信号。故选A项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。与文章第四段“Researchers tracked the signal to a huge snowslide in eastern Greenland’s Dickson fjord (峡湾), which was formed by melting (融化) ice due to climate change. Some 1.2 kilometers above the fjord, a mountaintop fell, driving more than 25 million cubic meters of rock and ice into the water-enough to fill 10,000 Olympic-sized swimming pools.(研究人员将信号追踪到格陵兰岛东部迪克森峡湾的一场巨大雪崩，这场雪崩是由气候变化导致的冰川融化形成的。在峡湾上方约1.2公里处，一座山顶坍塌，将2500多万立方米的岩石和冰块冲入水中，足以填满1万个奥运会标准游泳池。)”可知，格陵兰岛东部迪克森峡湾的一场巨大雪崩引发了这种异常的地震信号。故选B项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。由文章倒数第二段“Svennevig noted that understanding this event took time. Even when they had ideas about what happened, they needed more information and improved models to support their findings. (Svennevig指出，理解这一事件需要时间。即使他们对发生的事情有想法，他们也需要更多的信息和改进的模型来支持他们的发现。)”可知，科学家们需要更多的信息和改进的模型来支持他们的发现，由此可推断，科学家们要找到这一事件的答案很缓慢。故选B项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。由文章最后一段“To the researchers, the signal served as a wakeup call-similar events may happen with landfalls in other fjords or lakes due to climate change, which could lead to more landfalls and tsunamis in the Arctic. Understanding this event helps scientists learn more about how the Earth is changing due to global warming. There is still much to discover as we face the effects of climate change.(对于研究人员来说，这个信号是一个警钟，由于气候变化，其他峡湾或湖泊的登陆也可能发生类似的事件，这可能会导致北极更多的登陆和海啸。了解这一事件有助于科学家更多地了解地球如何因全球变暖而变化。面对气候变化的影响，我们仍有许多发现。)”可知，作者强调，这一信号是为我们提供了气候变化的警告。故选D项。 第二节 (共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to Deal with Common Book Club Challenges Running a book club discussion can sometimes be tricky or stressful.

Now, over 589 days and 19,000 Twitter followers later, he is more passionate (热爱) than ever about his task to save the planet! Edgar found out that Los Angeles would be the host of the 2028 Summer Olympic Games. Knowing the state of the national forest at the time, he feared that its grounds that were full of litter would make the city a “global embarrassment,” so he decided to make cleaning it up his new passion project. As time went on, he began documenting his progress on Twitter. Soon, he began encouraging others to start park cleanup projects of their own. As part of southern California’s Angeles National Forest, Eaton Canyon can see quite a bit of daily foot traffic. On one particularly busy day, Edgar spent five hours picking up litter and came away with over 1,000 pounds of rubbish. Rain or shine, Edgar headed over to carry out his task. He worked through conditions like snowstorms, a record heat wave, and even a forest fire on the opposite side of the park. The more he did, the more treasures he discovered. In addition to a lot of old iPhones and cans, Edgar collected enough recyclables to earn around 30 dollars every few weeks, which he would donate to nonprofits. Recently, Edgar began noticing that the top-littered areas in his park were becoming few and far between. At one point, he spent four hours moving around the park and only returned with two buckets. Edgar plans to return to Eaton Canyon two or three times a week to keep up with the maintenance, but he is excited to start expanding his reach to new locations. Though he realizes this doesn’t mean his journey is complete, he is excited to have already achieved so much! 4. Why is the 2028 Summer Olympic Games mentioned? A. To describe what made Edgar famous.

C If exercise seems like a great idea but you can never keep up a routine, it’s worth thinking about your exercise “mindset” — defined by psychologists as attitudes that shape our behaviour and reality. Research evidence is mounting that identifying some of our most habitual beliefs and replacing them with more adaptive ones can revive our ability to keep ourselves healthy. “Whether they’re true or not, mindsets have an effect,” says Dr. Alia Crum. “They change what we pay attention to, what we’re motivated to do, how we feel emotionally about what we’re doing and what we decide to prioritize (优先处理).” For instance, maybe you’ve tried to shame or scare yourself into going to the gym by reconsidering the health risks of not moving. Or perhaps you’ve aimed to get active by thinking of the long-term positive aspects of exercise: exercising regularly is 1.5 times more effective than taking medicine in easing depression, stress and anxiety. In contrast, thinking about exercise in all-or-nothing terms — “I need at least 30 minutes or there’s no point” — is the enemy of consistency. You want to use the mindset that “any and all movement is worth it, and everything counts,” says Dr. Michelle Segar, a researcher at the University of Michigan. Even a quick walk in the middle of a busy day is good for your well-being. If that doesn’t agree with your perfectionist tendencies (倾向), consider whether those tendencies have worked for you. Though strict standards may help some people, for many others they backfire, creating a cycle of failure. Besides bringing flexibility (灵活性) to how you view your movement, changing your “why” for getting active can also help keep up motivation. Rather than seeing workouts as a way to lose weight, it can help to focus on more immediately pleasant reasons to do it, like clearing your mind or feeling less stressed. Regarding the process of exercise as something that’s attractive makes a difference. The key is to focus on the pleasure that exercise can bring, and then pick an activity that is actually rewarding. 8. What’s the writing purpose of paragraph 1? A. To give a general description of mindset. B. To explain people’s confusion over mindset. C. To investigate the reasons for habitual behaviors. D. To stress the importance of adapting exercise mindset. 9. What can be learned about Alia Crum’s point of view? A. Everything matters in promoting one’s health. B. Mindsets affect one’s motivation and decision to act. C. It’s a good idea to make an exercise plan more flexible. D. It’s necessary to take some enjoyable and valuable exercise. 10. What does the author mean by the underlined sentence in paragraph 3? A. Strict standards require people to work out every day. B. Strict standards aren’t suitable for those perfectionists. C. Strict standards may lead to the opposite result for others. D. Strict standards stop people revising their plans regularly. 11. Which can be a suitable title for the text? A A New Study of Exercise Routine B. Focus on the Pleasure of Exercise C. The Power of Your Exercise Mindset D. Exercise Mindset and Failures Connected D Last September, a strange seismic signal (地震信号), lasting more than a week, attracted the attention of researchers around the world. It took 68 experts from 15 countries to discover the cause of the “USO” -Unidentified Seismic Object. The term USO is used informally by scientists for unusual seismic signals that can’t be explained, according to Kristian Svennevig, the lead author of a new report on this signal. From the start, scientists agreed this signal was not from an earthquake. Svennevig compared earthquakes to hitting piano keys with force, creating a mix of sounds that disappeared quickly. However, the unusual signal was like a single piano key producing a clear sound that lasted for nine days. Researchers tracked the signal to a huge snowslide in eastern Greenland’s Dickson fjord (峡湾), which was formed by melting (融化) ice due to climate change. Some 1.2 kilometers above the fjord, a mountaintop fell, driving more than 25 million cubic meters of rock and ice into the water-enough to fill 10,000 Olympic-sized swimming pools. The resulting tsunami (海啸) reached a height of 200 meters. The wave’s energy was caught in the rocky fjord, causing the water to move back and forth. This movement created the seismic signal. Svennevig noted that understanding this event took time. Even when they had ideas about what happened, they needed more information and improved models to support their findings. “We could only show that the tsunami was caught and kept moving inside the fjord for nine days after we used special army maps and improved our tsunami models,” Svennevig explained. To the researchers, the signal served as a wakeup call-similar events may happen with landfalls in other fjords or lakes due to climate change, which could lead to more landfalls and tsunamis in the Arctic. Understanding this event helps scientists learn more about how the Earth is changing due to global warming. There is still much to discover as we face the effects of climate change. 12. Why did Svennevig mention piano keys? A. To explain the strange signal. B. To introduce a musical instrument. C. To compare the sounds in nature. D. To give tips on playing the piano. 13. What caused the seismic signal? A. A wildfire. B. A snowslide. C. A heavy rain. D. An earthquake. 14. What can we know from Svennevig’s words? A. It’ll take much time to receive the seismic signal. B. It’s slow for scientists to find an answer to the event. C. A group of scientists was caught in the deadly tsunami. D. The researchers will make public the recent finding soon. 15. What does the author stress in the text? A. Landfalls always happen along with tsunamis. B. Scientists should keep an open mind on opinions. C. This event may shape our view on various cultures. D. The signal gives us fair warning of climate change. 第二节 (共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to Deal with Common Book Club Challenges Running a book club discussion can sometimes be tricky or stressful.
