人与自我——自我管理 Good habits are like good managers who can manage themselves well.好习惯就像好的经理人，能把自己经营好。 SOCIAL MEDIA DETOX Moderator1 Today marks the last day of the Social Media Detox2, Brenton High’s fundraising3 campaign for new sports equipment. At the start of the detox, over 100 students had been persuaded to stop using social media, in ANY form, for seven days. This meant no messaging friends, no posting photos, no blogging—nothing. They had been promised money by family and friends for each day spent without using social media. They were excited. They were nervous. But could they do it? With the detox now finished, they’ve switched4 on their devices and they’re back online. I bet you’re as eager as I am to find out just how many have been motivated5 enough to last the full seven days！And what, if anything, has been learnt from the experience? Anna 17 I lasted two days. The detox was more difficult to tolerate than I had expected. I felt like I had lost an arm！Not eating for two days would have been easier！But on reflection, I can see how much of my time had been occupied6 with checking my phone. I’m now trying to spend less time online and more time picking up my hobbies. Devon 16 I lasted four days. On Monday, my classmate and I spoke about what we did at the weekend—it felt really strange not to already know what he had done. We would usually have posted pictures and updated our profiles7. Doing the detox meant we had to talk and explain what we were doing and thinking！It made me realise the value of real contact that I had forgotten. Cindy 18 I managed the whole week！At first, I really felt I was missing out. Then, instead of messaging my friend, I went round to her house. Without our phones, we had a proper conversation for over two hours, without being distracted8 by messages from other people. It felt so good！Then I decided to visit a different friend every day. By the fifth day, I wondered—was I really missing out by not constantly9 checking my phone to see what everyone else was up to?

The findings raise hopes that plants could be grown on the moon during future space missions，and even enable mankind to set up a lunar settlement.“For future，longer space missions，we may use the moon as a launching platform，” explained Professor Rob Ferl.“It makes sense that we would want to use the soil that’s already there to grow plants.” Until now，scientists have not grown plants in the soil.“So，what happens when you grow plants in lunar soil? What would plants do in a lunar greenhouse? Could we have lunar farmers？” Professor Ferl questioned. To answer these questions，researchers from Florida set out to plant thale cress seeds in lunar soil，add water，nutrients，and light，and see what happened.The researchers chose to use thale cress because its genetic code has already been fully mapped. For comparison，the researchers also planted seeds in a range of soils，including those that simulate Martian soils.To their delight，the researchers found that nearly all of the seeds grew.However，they did observe differences between the plants grown in the lunar soil and those grown in the control soils.Some of the plants grown in the lunar soil were smaller，while others grew more slowly or were more varied in size. Growing plants in lunar soil may also change the moon itself，according to Dr.Stephen Elardo.“The moon is a very，very dry place，” he said.How will minerals in the lunar soil respond to having a plant grown in them，with the added water and nutrients? Will adding water make the minerals friendlier to plants? The researchers hope to answer these questions in follow-up studies. 4．What’s the second paragraph mainly about? A．The significance of the findings. B．The plants grown in the lunar soil. C．The missions of future space exploration. D．The hope for setting up a lunar settlement. 答案　A 解析　段落大意题。根据第二段中的“The findings raise hopes that plants could be grown on the moon during future space missions，and even enable mankind to set up a lunar settlement.”可知，本段主要介绍这项研究结果的意义。故选A。 5．Why did researchers use thale cress in the experiment? A．Its genes are suitable for lunar soil. B．It has a long evolutionary history. C．It has been tested with lunar soil before. D．People have a good knowledge of its genes. 答案　D 解析　细节理解题。根据第三段末句可知，研究人员之所以选择水芹，是因为人们对它的基因很了解。故选D。 6．What did researchers find about the plants grown in lunar soil? A．They absorbed few nutrients. B．They didn’t grow well enough. C．They grew slowly in the dark. D．They needed more water to grow bigger. 答案　B 解析　细节理解题。根据第四段末句可知，研究人员发现在月球土壤中生长的植物长得不够好。故选B。 7．What is the best title for the text? A．Scientists Grow Plants in Lunar Soil B．Scientists Conduct a Study on Lunar Soil C．Scientists Prepare for Farming on the Moon D．Scientists Hope to Collect More Lunar Soil 答案　A 解析　标题归纳题。根据第一段内容并纵观全文可知，本文主要讲述了科学家研究在月球土壤中种植植物的过程。所以“科学家在月球土壤中种植植物”适合作短文的标题。故选A。 C “Regrets，I’ve had a few.But then again，too few to mention，” Frank Sinatra chanted in his 1969 hit “My Way”．The song’s idea is attractive：that anyone can just declare what’s done is done and move on.Some take the declaration a step further and claim they have no regrets at all.Whether a boast or an actual attitude，“no regrets” suggests that life can and should be lived without looking through the rear-view mirror. Easier said than done，though.In 2020，author Daniel H．Pink launched the World Regret Survey，the largest ever survey on the topic.With his research team，Pink asked more than 15,000 people in 105 countries，“How often do you look back on your life and wish you had done things differently？” 82% said regret is at least an occasional part of their life；roughly 21% said they feel regret “all the time”．Only 1% said they never feel regret. If you are of the “no regrets” type，you might think that all this regret is a recipe for unhappiness.But that isn’t the case.True，being overwhelmed by regret is indeed bad for you.But going to the other extreme may be even worse.To rid yourself of regrets doesn’t free you from shame or sorrow；it leads you to make the same mistakes again and again.To truly get over our guilt requires that we put regret in its proper place. As uncomfortable as it is，regret is an amazing cognitive(认知) achievement.If today your relationship with your partner has soured，your regret might mentally take you back to last year.You would remember your being mean and sensitive，and then imagine yourself showing more patience，being kind instead of hurtful at key moments.Then you would fast-forward to today and see how your relationship could be progressing instead of languishing. But regret doesn’t have to be left unmanaged.The trick is to acknowledge it and use it for learning and improvement.You can be honest with yourself about what went wrong and use that knowledge to enjoy better relationships in the future. 语篇解读　这是一篇说明文。世界上不同的人对于“后悔”有不同的态度，而作者认为适当的后悔才能帮助我们不断进步。 8．What should we do if we have had a bitter quarrel with a close friend according to Frank Sinatra? A．Attract more people to your argument. B．Send him/her a letter of apology. C．Boast about being more reasonable. D．Forget about it and just let it go. 答案　D 解析　推理判断题。根据第一段第二、三句可推知，根据Frank Sinatra的观点，在与朋友争吵后，我们不会道歉，只会接受争吵已发生的事实，然后朝前看。故选D项。 9．Which of the following statements about regret may the writer agree with? A．We can do nothing about regret. B．Unhappiness results from regret. C．Ignoring regrets is missing the opportunity to improve. D．Ridding yourself of regrets helps free you from sorrow. 答案　C 解析　推理判断题。根据第三段后两句可推知，作者认为，如果一个人从不后悔，就会重复犯同样的错误，得不到任何提升和进步。故选C项。 10．What does the underlined word “languishing” in paragraph 4 most probably mean? A．Improving. B．Healing. C．Showing up. D．Breaking up. 答案　D 解析　词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句可知，instead of前后为转折关系，前文说关系需要有进展，而有进展的反面是结束关系，或者关系破裂。故选D项。 11．What might be a suitable title for the text? A．Regret to Become Smarter—if You Let It B．Long for a Different Past？Regret It! C．Regret？Not My Way! D．Stay away！Regret Will Heal Itself 答案　A 解析　标题归纳题。通读全文尤其是最后一段第一、二句可知，作者建议读者利用好“后悔”来促进自我的进步，故选项A“如果你愿意，后悔可以让你更聪明”符合文章主旨，适合作为标题。故选A项。 Ⅱ.七选五 Best Ways to Get Rid of a Bad Habit Everyone has a bad habit or two.Getting rid of habits is a very hard thing to do.Even if you have a great deal of self-discipline，bad habits can be very hard to get rid of. 1 The same is true of breaking a bad habit; it takes about three weeks to really get past it. Tell a friend about your efforts.This will make you more responsible because it is easy to make excuses to yourself，but not as easy to make excuses when your friend asks how it is going.The more people you tell，the more responsibility there is. 2 The same people that are there to keep you responsible should also be there when you need some support.You should tell people who you can call when your resolve is faltering(衰退)． 3 If you want to get rid of a bad habit，you need to replace it with something else.If you watch too much television，you can replace it with a healthy habit such as reading a book or exercising.It might also be a time to start something that you have been planning to do for a long time.Maybe you can start working on a dream project you have been delaying for so long. 4 Set futuristic goals.You should imagine a future that involves a life without your bad habit.Whatever the habit you are looking to getting rid of，you should visualize how better your life would become when you get rid of it. 5 By setting goals for the future，you can motivate yourself and adopt a lifestyle that helps you achieve those goals. A．Adopt a new habit. B．Get proper help. C．This also means that you can get more support. D．Habits take about three weeks to really come into your mind. E．Think of all the opportunities you missed because of bad habits. F．Bad habits can prevent a person from making any progress in life. G．Anything that offers a change in schedule can be very beneficial for you. 1．答案　D 解析　后文提到改掉坏习惯同样需要大约三周，可推知空处应说明习惯的养成也需要三周。故选D。 2．答案　C 解析　上文提出你告诉的人越多，责任就越多，下文则说到这些人也会给予你支持，所以C项承上启下，其中的support与下文内容相呼应。故选C。 3．答案　A 解析　空处位于段首，应为概括句，结构应和第二、四段开头的概括句的结构一致，应为祈使句。根据后文“If you want to get rid of a bad habit，you need to replace it with something else.”可知，本段的主旨是通过养成新习惯来改掉坏习惯。故选A。 4．答案　G 解析　该段主要叙述通过养成新习惯来改掉坏习惯，上文举了几个例子来进行解释说明，所以空处应总结上文，G选项“任何能改变日程安排的事情都会对你非常有益”符合逻辑关系。故选G。 5．答案　E 解析　根据上文“you should visualize how better your life would become when you get rid of it”可知，此处是在对改掉坏习惯之后的美好生活进行设想。E选项“想想你因为坏习惯而错失的所有机会”符合语境。故选E。 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
