It’s believing in a brighter future and acting towards it. 1 Here are strategies that can help cultivate hope. As Hellman, an assistant professor of psychology at Suffolk University in Boston, points out, “Hope begets hope, and it has such a significant protective factor.” 2 Make it a point to always be working toward at least one goal that’s meaningful, Hellman advises. In other words, it shouldn’t be something you have to do but something you want to do. “Goals can be anything that’s important to us,” he says. Brainstorm solutions. If you’ve set a goal that’s meaningful to you, but you can’t figure out a way to achieve it, you’ll probably feel pretty hopeless. People who are high in hope, meanwhile, tend to generate lots of ways. 3 If you’re struggling to make a plan, Hellman suggests sitting down with a pen and paper and giving yourself an hour to brainstorm solutions. Seek out success stories. It’s said that people cultivate hope by seeking support from their parents and specific teachers. But they also got a lot out of learning about other people who have done well for themselves. Hellman says, “ 4 ” Tap into your imagination. Hellman thinks of imagination as “the instrument of hope”. Let’s say you set a goal for the week. Spend a few minutes reflecting on or talking about what would happen if you achieved it. “How does it impact you, or how would it benefit others?” he says. “ 5 And when you can see yourself in the future, that is the very essence of hope.” A．Do something meaningful. B．It can be taught and nurtured. C．Think in a goal-oriented way. D．With these good examples, people are bound to be successful. E．So, if one doesn’t work out, they have an alternative at the ready. F．By seeing other people succeed, they feel like they could succeed. G．You and I have this wonderful capacity to play a movie in our head. 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．E 4．F 5．G 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些培养希望的策略。 1．根据上文“The solution to any despair might be hope, experts say. It’s believing in a brighter future and acting towards it. (专家表示，任何绝望的解决方案可能都是希望。它是相信一个更光明的未来，并为之行动。)”以及后文“Here are strategies that can help cultivate hope. (这里有一些策略可以帮助培养希望。)”可知，本句主要启示后文，指出希望可以被培养，B选项中It对应上文hope。故B选项“它可以被教导和培养。”符合语境，故选B。 2．根据后文“Make it a point to always be working toward at least one goal that’s meaningful, Hellman advises. In other words, it shouldn’t be something you have to do but something you want to do. “Goals can be anything that’s important to us,” he says. (海尔曼建议，一定要朝着至少一个有意义的目标努力。换句话说，它不应该是你必须做的事情，而是你想做的事情。“目标可以是任何对我们来说重要的东西，”他说。)”可知，本段的主旨是通过制定目标来采取行动，故C选项“以目标为导向的方式思考。”符合语境，故选C。 3．根据上文“Brainstorm solutions. If you’ve set a goal that’s meaningful to you, but you can’t figure out a way to achieve it, you’ll probably feel pretty hopeless. People who are high in hope, meanwhile, tend to generate lots of ways. (头脑风暴的解决方案。如果你设定了一个对你来说很有意义的目标，但你却找不到实现它的方法，你可能会感到非常绝望。与此同时，满怀希望的人往往会想出很多办法。)”可知，本句承接上文，构成因果关系，指出想多很多办法的结果。故E选项“所以，如果一个不成功，他们有另一个选择。”符合语境，故选E。 4．根据上文“Seek out success stories. It’s said that people cultivate hope by seeking support from their parents and specific teachers. But they also got a lot out of learning about other people who have done well for themselves. Hellman says, (寻找成功的故事。据说人们通过向父母和特定老师寻求支持来培养希望。但他们也从了解其他为自己做得很好的人中学到了很多。海尔曼说，)”可知，本句主要引用Hellman关于寻找成功事迹的言论和论点，故F选项“看到别人成功，他们觉得自己也能成功。”符合语境，故选F。 5．根据上文“Tap into your imagination. Hellman thinks of imagination as “the instrument of hope”. Let’s say you set a goal for the week. Spend a few minutes reflecting on or talking about what would happen if you achieved it. “How does it impact you, or how would it benefit others?” he says. (发挥你的想象力。海尔曼认为想象力是“希望的工具”。假设你为这一周设定了一个目标。花几分钟思考或谈论一下如果你实现了目标会发生什么。“它如何影响你，或者它将如何使他人受益?”他说。)”以及后文“And when you can see yourself in the future, that is the very essence of hope. (当你能看到未来的自己，这就是希望的本质。)”可知，本段的主旨是在大脑中发挥想象力，从而获得希望。故G选项“你和我都有在脑海中播放电影的奇妙能力。”符合语境，故选G。 （二） 【来源】湖南省部分学校2023-2024学年高二下学期期末联考英语试题 Dopamine (多巴胺) is a chemical that is released in the brain and provides people with a feeling of reward and motivation. But do you know "dopamine dressing"? It is one of the hottest fashion trends ruling social media in 2023. 1 . Dopamine dressing is nothing new. In fact, a study published in 2012 found that when participants were asked to wear clothing that held some symbolic meaning, their confidence increased. The study determined that clothing can have a direct impact on their psychological process. 2 . It suggested that dressing in a certain way can influence the way we make decisions. "What we wear is how we show ourselves to those we interact with — we are influenced by their reaction to it. If we are well received, 3 ," one of the leading researchers Mair added. Actually, dopamine dressing is different for everyone. It's about wearing the clothes that make you feel good. 4 ; it could be your favorite pair of jeans; or it could be that dress you were saving for a special occasion. In a word, it's OK to wear anything that can boost your mood. Color psychologist Karen Haller said, " 5 . Our confidence can be boosted when we wear colors that we love and feel good in. We feel and behave differently when we take the colors in through our eyes and through the part of our brain where our emotions exist." Ultimately, dopamine dressing is whatever makes you feel good. A．It could be joggers and a sport shirt B．it shows that we are the fans of the dressing style C．However, dopamine dressing is beneficial to our mental health D．it builds up our confidence and can eventually affect our well-being E．Color is a great way to lift our spirits and boost our moods in an instant F．Many people take this style to fight back bad feelings and show themselves G．Another study found that the outfits we wear can directly influence how we think 【答案】1．F 2．G 3．D 4．A 5．E 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了给人们带来快乐的穿搭方式——多巴胺穿搭。 1．根据设空处前一句“It is one of the hot-test fashion trends ruling social media in 2023.(这是2023年社交媒体上最热门的时尚潮流之一)”可知，这种穿搭方式很受欢迎，F 项：Many people take this style to fight back bad feelings and show themselves(许多人用这种方式来对抗不好的感觉，展示自己)中的“Many people”与之相符。故选 F。 2．上一段提到了“a study published in 2012(2012年发表的一项研究)”，G 项：Another study found that the outfits we wear can directly influence how we think(另一项研究发现，我们的着装会直接影响我们的思维方式)中的“Another study”承接上文，且被设空处后一句“It suggested that dressing in a certain way can influence the way we make decisions.(研究表明，某种穿衣方式会影响我们做决定的方式。)”中的代词“It”代指。故选 G。 3．根据设空处前一句“If we are well received(如果我们受到欢迎)”可知，这样会产生积极的影响，D 项：it builds up our confidence and can eventually affect our well-being(它会建立我们的信心，并最终影响我们的幸福)与之吻合，且 D 项中的“it”代指了上文。故选 D。 4．根据空后的分号以及下文“it could be your favorite pair of jeans; or it could be that dress you were saving for a special occasion(它可以是你最喜欢的一条牛仔裤;也可能是你为某个特殊场合准备的那条裙子)”可知，A项：It could be joggers and a sport shirt(可以是慢跑裤和运动衫)与下文为平行句式，都是指多巴胺的穿搭方式。故选 A。 5．设空处下文提到“Our confidence can be boosted when we wear colors that we love and feel good in.(当我们穿上自己喜欢的颜色，感觉良好时，我们的信心会增强。)，E项：Color is a great way to lift our spirits and boost our moods in an instant(颜色是一种很好的方式来提升我们的精神和改善我们的情绪在瞬间)承接上句，说明多巴胺穿搭的作用。故选E。 （三） 【来源】江苏省镇江市实验高级中学2023～2024学年高二下期末考试英语试卷 This is something that all of us have noticed countless times in our daily lives. Whether you’re trying to read the fine print in a commercial or trying to make out a person’s face from a distance — it always helps to see better when you squint (眯起) your eyes. 1    There’s a common assumption that you’re adding much stress to your eyeballs by squeezing them to make them work better. 2 If you think for a while, you’ll find squinting is a different matter. If squinting meant making your eyes become stress balls, we’d all be in a lot of trouble. 3 When light hits an object, it bounces off its surface and enters our eyes. The light travels through the eye lens (晶状体). The lens then focuses the light rays, which fall on the retina (视网膜). A chemical present in the retina turns light into electric signals, which are then transmitted to the brain. The brain processes the signals and ultimately allows us to see stuff. The act of squinting, quite obviously, alters the shape of the space through which light passes, which helps us form a clear image on the retina. What’s more, light from different directions enters and is subsequently perceived by the eye. 4 However, when you’re trying to focus on something, if there’s light entering from multiple directions, the lens will be overloaded. By squinting, focusing light rays becomes more precise. Squinting does not damage your eyesight. 5 It’s one thing to occasionally squint in order to make out something far away. But if you find yourself doing it all the time, getting your eyes tested should be your focus. A．Actually, that’s not exactly the case. B．Has it ever occurred to you why this happens? C．Squinting does two major things to improve our vision. D．However, doing it for long periods of time can lead to dry eyes. E．Normally, this is a great thing, as it feeds your situational awareness. F．A number of biological components actually constitute the human eye. G．Before revealing the secret behind it, let’s learn about how we see things. 【答案】1．B 2．A 3．G 4．E 5．D 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文解释了为什么眯眼可以帮助我们看得更清楚，并澄清了眯眼不会损害视力的误解。 1．根据上文“This is something that all of us have noticed countless times in our daily lives. Whether you’re trying to read the fine print in a commercial or trying to make out a person’s face from a distance — it always helps to see better when you squint (眯起) your eyes. (这是我们所有人在日常生活中无数次注意到的事情。无论你是想阅读商业广告上的小字，还是想从远处辨认一个人的脸——眯着眼睛总是有助于看得更清楚。)”可知，上文引出眯眼可以帮助我们看得更清楚这一话题，由下文“There’s a common assumption that you’re adding much stress to your eyeballs by squeezing them to make them work better. (有一种普遍的假设是，你挤压眼球是为了让它们更好地工作，从而给眼球增加了很大的压力。)”可知，下文解释了为什么眯眼可以帮助我们看得更清楚，故本空应提问为什么眯眼可以帮助我们看得更清楚，B选项“Has it ever occurred to you why this happens? (你有没有想过为什么会这样？)”能承上启下，符合语境。故选B。 2． 根据上文“There’s a common assumption that you’re adding much stress to your eyeballs by squeezing them to make them work better. (有一种普遍的假设是，你挤压眼球是为了让它们更好地工作，从而给眼球增加了很大的压力。)”和下文“If you think for a while, you’ll find squinting is a different matter. If squinting meant making your eyes become stress balls, we’d all be in a lot of trouble. (如果你仔细想想，你会发现眯眼是另一回事。如果眯着眼睛意味着让你的眼睛变成压力球，那我们就有大麻烦了。)”可知，本空应是对上文认知的怀疑，故选项A“Actually, that’s not exactly the case. (实际上，情况并非如此。)”能承上启下，符合语境。故选A。 3．根据下文“When light hits an object, it bounces off its surface and enters our eyes. (当光线照射到物体上时，它会从物体表面反弹，进入我们的眼睛。)”可知，下文解释了人眼看见东西的原理，本空应引出这一原理，G选项“Before revealing the secret behind it, let’s learn about how we see things. (在揭示其背后的秘密之前，让我们了解一下我们是如何看东西的。)”能引出下文，符合语境。故选G。 4． 根据上文“What’s more, light from different directions enters and is subsequently perceived by the eye. (更重要的是，来自不同方向的光进入并随后被眼睛感知。)”可知，本空应谈论光被眼睛感知的结果，E选项“Normally, this is a great thing, as it feeds your situational awareness. (通常，这是件好事，因为它增强了你的情境意识。)”能承接上文，符合语境。故选E。 5．根据上文“Squinting does not damage your eyesight. (眯眼不会损害你的视力。)”和后文“But if you find yourself doing it all the time, getting your eyes tested should be your focus. (偶尔眯着眼看清远处的东西是一回事。但如果你发现自己总是这样做，那么检查你的眼睛应该是你的重点。)”可知，上文说眯眼不会损害你的视力，下文又说检查你的眼睛，上下文存在转折关系，D选项“However, doing it for long periods of time can lead to dry eyes. (然而，长时间这样做会导致眼睛干涩。)”能承上启下，符合语境。故选D。 （四） 【来源】陕西省西安市铁一中学2023-2024学年高二下学期期末考试英语试题 Friends are incredibly important people in our lives. Some are with us for decades. 1 Here are some tips to remember if you’re processing the loss of a friend. Sometimes things just don’t work out. 2 In fact, people, on average, lose about half of their friends every seven years. One of the most common reasons those relationships end is that they just fell through the cracks. Things didn’t work out. Nobody really wanted the friendship to end, but people got busy and didn’t intentionally maintain the friendship. Make the unsaid said. Sometimes, in friendship, people don’t make the unsaid said. 3 And because they’re never directly addressed, people get to a point where they want to end the friendship before actually addressing the problem. Actually, if they had intervened sooner, they might have been able to save the friendship. It’s normal to feel grief. When a friendship ends, there is a grieving process. Allow yourself to feel those emotions and be patient. Instead of pushing yourself to cheer up, try thinking like this, “Of course I’m upset. This is a natural part of intimacy (亲密关系) and loss. I lost someone I’m very close to. 4 5 It’s important not to blame yourself and be mean to yourself for not getting over the loss of a friendship. Just because this happened like this doesn’t mean more friendships will happen like this. Allow yourself to have a fresh perspective when you enter new friendships. You don’t want to go into a new connection fearfully. A．That means I love them deeply. B．Be kind to yourself along the way. C．Find ways to enter a new friendship. D．Small things can kind of accumulate. E．Losing friends is a regular part of life. F．But not all of them can stand the test of time. G．When a close friendship ends, the reasons are complicated. 【答案】1．F 2．E 3．D 4．A 5．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些方法以帮助我们走出失去朋友的痛苦。 1．根据空前“Some are with us for decades. (有些已经存在了几十年。)”可知，空前讲述的是有的朋友已经在我们身边多年。选项F“But not all of them can stand the test of time.(但并不是所有的都能经受住时间的考验。)”延续上文内容，指的是有的朋友会陪伴我们很久，有些朋友却不能经受时间的考验。故选F。 2．根据空后内容“In fact, people, on average, lose about half of their friends every seven years.(事实上，人们平均每七年就会失去一半的朋友。)”可知，人们每七年就会失去一半的朋友。选项E“Losing friends is a regular part of life.(失去朋友是生活中很正常的一部分。)”与下文内容保持一致，指的是失去朋友很正常，人们每七年就会失去一半的朋友。故选E。 3．根据空后内容“And because they’re never directly addressed, people get to a point where they want to end the friendship before actually addressing the problem.(因为这些问题从来没有被直接解决过，所以人们会在真正解决问题之前就想结束友谊。)”可知，下文讲述的是因为这些问题没有解决，所以人们想要结束友谊。选项D“Small things can kind of accumulate.(小事情会累积起来。)”中的“small things”正是下文提到的“they”，内容上也与下文保持一致。指的是小事慢慢堆积成为问题，问题不被解决使人们想要结束友谊。故选D。 4．根据空前内容“I lost someone I’m very close to.(我失去了一个很亲近的人。)”可知，失去朋友就是失去了一个很亲近的人。选项A“That means I love them deeply.(那意味着我深深地爱着他们。)”是上文内容的自然延续，指的所谓的亲近的人也是我们所深爱的人，失去他们，我们自然感到悲伤。故选A。 5．空处为小标题，为本段主要内容。根据下文内容“It’s important not to blame yourself and be mean to yourself for not getting over the loss of a friendship. Just because this happened like this doesn’t mean more friendships will happen like this. Allow yourself to have a fresh perspective when you enter new friendships. You don’t want to go into a new connection fearfully.(重要的是不要因为没有从失去友谊中走出来而责怪自己，也不要对自己刻薄。仅仅因为这样的事情发生了并不意味着会有更多这样的友谊发生。当你开始一段新的友谊时，让自己有一个新的视角。你不想害怕地进入一段新的关系。)”可知，本段主要讲述的是不要苛责自己。选项B“Be kind to yourself along the way.(一路走来，要善待自己。)”与本段内容相符，指的是善待自己。故选B。 （五） 【来源】山东省德州市2023-2024学年高二下学期期末考试英语试题 It is rightly said “Time and Tide wait for none”. But a number of people today have difficulty successfully managing time. 1 Now let’s take a look at a list of 4 skills you should master about time management. Set priorities. Write out all the tasks you need to get through for the day and then prioritize them in accordance with their level of significance. 2 Meanwhile, it also assists to guarantee that the most important things are done on time. 3 Certain activities, though seemingly harmless, significantly affect productivity. Instagram and Facebook, for instance, could easily consume hours that are better spent on studying or rest. To combat this, using time management tools that track how much time you spend online highlights areas for improvement. Do less. This is a trick from Leo Babauta, who started the blog Zen Habits. In his opinion, doing less doesn't mean “less is more”. It means “less is better”. 4 This is achieved by slowing down and concentrating only on those things. Once you do, make every action count. As a result, you'll be creating more value instead of just fodder. Relax at Appropriate Intervals. Control your performance over time by taking more pauses. According to Nathaniel Kleitman, a sleep scientist, “our brains naturally desire rest after every 90 minutes of hard activity.” Your mind will let you understand that you require a break when you start to feel sleepy, restless, hungry or lose concentration regardless of whether or not you have such a timer set. 5 Embrace these strategies, adapt them to your specific needs, and reclaim control over your time management. Your future self will thank you for it! A．Stay creative. B．Eliminate Time-wasters. C．Be aware of what needs to be done. D．You can not apply that to time management. E．It may improve the chances of achieving objectives. F．You realize it’s time to step back when you start feeling like this. G．This in turn, leads to a decline in production as well as a rise in their anxiety levels. 【答案】1．G 2．E 3．B 4．C 5．F 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了四项时间管理技能。 1．根据前文“But a number of people today have difficulty successfully managing time. (但今天许多人难以成功地管理时间。)”可知，下文将讲述时间管理不善的后果。与G项“This in turn, leads to a decline in production as well as a rise in their anxiety levels. (这反过来导致生产力下降以及焦虑水平上升。)”上下文一致，符合语境，故选G项。 2．根据前文“Set priorities. Write out all the tasks you need to get through for the day and then prioritize them in accordance with their level of significance. (设定优先级。写下你一天需要完成的所有任务，然后根据它们的重要性进行优先排序。)”可知，空处应描述设定优先级的好处。与E项“It may improve the chances of achieving objectives. (这可能会提高实现目标的机会。)”上下文一致，符合语境，描述了设定优先级的好处。故选E项。 3．根据下文“Certain activities, though seemingly harmless, significantly affect productivity. Instagram and Facebook, for instance, could easily consume hours that are better spent on studying or rest. (某些活动，虽然看似无害，但会显著影响生产力。例如，Instagram和Facebook可以轻易地消耗掉本可以用于学习或休息的时间。)”可知，空处应描述需要消除的时间浪费者。与B项“Eliminate Time-wasters. (杜绝浪费时间的行为。)”上下文一致，符合文意，故选B项。 4．根据前文“Do less. This is a trick from Leo Babauta, who started the blog Zen Habits. In his opinion, doing less doesn't mean “less is more”. It means “less is better”. (少做点。这是Leo Babauta的一个技巧，他创办了Zen Habits博客。在他看来，少做并不意味着“少即是多”。它意味着“少即是好”。)”可知，空处应描述少做的具体方法。与C项“Be aware of what needs to be done. (了解需要做什么。)”上下文一致，符合文意，故选C项。 5．根据前文“Your mind will let you understand that you require a break when you start to feel sleepy, restless, hungry or lose concentration regardless of whether or not you have such a timer set.

(当你开始有这种感觉时，你会意识到是时候退一步了。)”上下文一致，符合文意，故选F项。 （六） 【来源】四川省宜宾市普通高中2023-2024学年高二下学期期末学业质量监测英语试题 To read poetry like a poet A great poem can be there for you. It can help you process sadness, anger or fear. 1 . Franny Choi, an educator, says some poems make her “get out of my chair and shout it from the rooftops.” Here are tips to help you meaningfully connect to a poem. Don’t approach poetry like it’s school. The way to engage with a poem taught in school is by trying to understand it, master it and take an exam, which keeps us from developing personal relationships with poetry. 2 , due to no quiz at the end! Don’t worry about “getting it”. People often pressure themselves to interpret a poem, or figure out what the poet conveyed. Don’t do it, says Mullen, a poet and professor. 3 : what overall impression do you get? What ideas float around in mind? “Those overall impressions, I think most of us do get,” says Mullen. Read it out loud. “Poetry was an oral art form before anything else,” says Choi. “And much information can be gained from reading poems loud.” As an exercise, try reading a poem aloud in different ways: like tasting every word and every syllable; like explaining something tough to someone else. 4 . 5 . A poem might offer visual imagery. If not, go ahead and fill them in with your imagination. “Think of the poem like a movie director,” says Mullen, “What colors would you use? What kind of setting is there?” These brain pictures will illuminate whatever it is you seem to be getting out of the poem. A．Visualize the poem B．Read a bunch of poetry C．So rest easy when reading a poem D．Or make you feel happy or excited E．Instead, ask about your opinion of the poem F．Or better yet, head to your local poetry circle G．It may help further your knowledge of the poem 【答案】1．D 2．C 3．E 4．G 5．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了如何像诗人一样阅读诗歌，与诗歌建立有意义的联系。文章提出不要像在学校里那样对待诗歌，不要担心“理解它”，而应该大声朗读，利用想象，以此来增强对诗歌的感受和理解。 1．根据上文“A great poem can be there for you. It can help you process sadness, anger or fear.(一首伟大的诗可以陪伴你，它能帮你处理悲伤、愤怒或恐惧。)”可知，此处应继续列举诗歌的作用，与D项“Or make you feel happy or excited(或者让你感到快乐或兴奋)”表达的意思一致，故选D项。 2．根据上文“The way to engage with a poem taught in school is by trying to understand it, master it and take an exam, which keeps us from developing personal relationships with poetry.(在学校里，接触诗歌的方式是试图理解它，掌握它，然后参加考试，这使我们无法与诗歌建立个人关系。)”可知，此处应提出一种更轻松的阅读诗歌的方式，与C项“So rest easy when reading a poem(所以，阅读诗歌时可以轻松一些)”表达的意思一致，故选C项。 3．根据上文“Don’t worry about “getting it”. People often pressure themselves to interpret a poem, or figure out what the poet conveyed. Don’t do it, says Mullen, a poet and professor.(不要担心“理解它”。人们经常给自己压力去解读一首诗，或者弄清楚诗人传达了些什么。诗人兼教授Mullen说，不要这样做。)”可知，此处应提出一种更轻松的阅读诗歌的方式，与E项“Instead, ask about your opinion of the poem(相反，问问你对这首诗的看法)”表达的意思一致，故选E项。 4．根据上文“As an exercise, try reading a poem aloud in different ways: like tasting every word and every syllable; like explaining something tough to someone else.(作为一种练习，试着用不同的方式大声朗读一首诗：就像品味每一个词和音节；就像向别人解释一些困难的事情。)”可知，此处应说明这种练习的好处，与G项“It may help further your knowledge of the poem(它可能有助于你进一步了解这首诗)”表达的意思一致，故选G项。 5．根据下文“A poem might offer visual imagery. If not, go ahead and fill them in with your imagination.(一首诗可能会提供视觉意象。如果没有，那就用你的想象力去填充它们。)”可知，此处应提出一种阅读诗歌的方法，与A项“Visualize the poem(想象诗歌)”表达的意思一致，故选A项。 （七） 【来源】河南开封各县市重点高中2023-2024学年高二下学期期末考试英语试题 While there are numerous tools to help you determine your strengths, try starting with these questions. Be as honest, clear, and objective as possible. What are your top three qualities or strengths? 1 . To make it easy, send an email to 20 of your closest friends and family members. Tell them you need their help in identifying your three top qualities or strengths. You’ll quickly start receiving responses. Start a list from the answers you receive. 2 . Take the three most common answers and use them as your guide. What do you do every day? Most people tend to spend time on the things they like to do rather than the things they don’t like. 3 . If you find yourself easily making time to read to your kids but avoid making dinner, this behavior could be telling you something. People move toward things they’re naturally good at doing. 4 ? What people think you do and what they say about you are two different things. For example, they may think you’re cleaning all day long but still think you’re a terrible housekeeper. So you need to question people about it and tell them it’s okay to tell the truth because this is about your personal development. What is one mistake you keep repeating? Albert Einstein is known to have described insanity (精神错乱) as doing the same thing over and over but expecting different results. Are you caught in the insanity trap? For me, it was making bread. For years I tried to get my dough (面团) to rise into a nice cottony loaf. 5 . I had advice from friends, watched videos online and tried different recipes all to no avail. I’ve accepted that I can’t make bread and it’s okay. A．Every time I created a hard rock B．The first step is to ask for advice C．What do you like to talk about D．What do other people say about you E．You’ll find a lot of qualities are repeated F．The truth is we don’t have to be good at everything G．It’s often the struggle between the two that causes problems, not the activities 【答案】1．B 2．E 3．G 4．D 5．A 【导语】这是一篇说明文。作者介绍了几个可以帮助确定自己优势的方法。 1．根据下文“To make it easy, send an email to 20 of your closest friends and family members. Tell them you need their help in identifying your three top qualities or strengths. You’ll quickly start receiving responses.(为了方便起见，给你最亲密的20位朋友和家人发一封电子邮件。告诉他们你需要他们的帮助来确定你的三大品质或优势。你会很快收到回复)”可知，要了解自己的长处，需要征求别人的意见。B项“第一步是征求意见”符合题意，下文是对选项的具体解释。故选B项。 2．根据上文“Start a list from the answers you receive.(从收到的答案开始列出一个列表)”及下文“Take the three most common answers and use them as your guide.(选取三个最常见的答案，并将其作为你的指南)”可知，E项“你会发现很多品质都是重复的”起到了内容上的承上启下，表明具体操作的步骤是你需要先为答案列清单，然后从清单表里发现很多重复的品质后，再从这些重复的答案中选取三个作为你的行动指南。故选E项。 3．根据上文“What do you do every day? Most people tend to spend time on the things they like to do rather than the things they don’t like.(你每天都做什么？大多数人倾向于把时间花在他们喜欢做的事情上，而不是他们不喜欢的事情上)”可知，大多数人把时间花在喜欢做的事情而不是他们不喜欢的事情上，G项“造成问题的往往是两者之间的斗争，而不是活动”中的the two指的是上文提到的the things they like to do和things they don’t like，和上文构成内容上的承接。故选G项。 4．下文“What people think you do and what they say about you are two different things. For example, they may think you’re cleaning all day long but still think you’re a terrible housekeeper.(人们对你的看法和他们对你的评价是两回事。例如，他们可能认为你整天都在打扫卫生，但仍然认为你是一个糟糕的管家)”可知，本段主要强调别人对你的评价。D项“别人怎么评价你”符合题意，可以作为本段的主题句对本段内容进行概括。故选D项。 5．根据上文“For me, it was making bread. For years I tried to get my dough (面团) to rise into a nice cottony loaf.(对我来说，就是做面包。多年来，我一直试图让我的面团变成一个漂亮的棉花面包)”可知，作者不断重复的错误是做面包，A项“每次我创造一块坚硬的岩石”中的rock指代的是上文提到的bread，构成内容上的承接，指出作者经常重复犯的错误是把面包烤成石头一样硬。故选A项。 （八） 【来源】吉林省吉林市第一中学2023-2024学年高二下学期7月期末英语试题 Being sensitive means that you are observant, careful, and thoughtful. It can also mean you sometimes overinterpret or overreact to perceived criticism or judgment. If you tend to be a highly sensitive person, you are more likely to misread signals from others, sense social threats, and struggle to adapt to new circumstances. 1 The power of insensitivity can be interpreted as “sluggish (迟钝的) power” . 2 For example, those working on complex research projects with “sluggish power” persist with focus and determination in the face of challenges such as tight deadlines and limited resources. Their resilience facilitates effective problem-solving, ensuring the successful completion of tasks despite obstacles. 3 That is one of the important reasons why insensitivity allows a person to better survive and adapt in a competitive environment. Knowing oneself is difficult, but knowing oneself correctly is undoubtedly an excellent ability — a trait shared by many successful people, who all clearly know where their strengths are, what they can do, what they want, and what direction to go. Practicing insensitivity involves several key strategies. Firstly, be assertive. Express our needs and opinions positively and with confidence. Secondly, adopt a forward-looking mindset. 4 Additionally, detach from external influences. Avoid excessive concern over others’ opinions and speculation on others’ thoughts. Lastly, manage relationships. Recognize our personal responsibilities while respecting others’ boundaries. Don’t interfere with other people’s subjects and don’t let others interfere with ours either. 5 Once you become a bit “blunt” and slow down the pace, you will feel more comfortable. A．Learn to view the problem as two parts. B．That’s where the need to be insensitive comes from. C．I hope everyone can obtain the ability to be insensitive. D．Behind insensitivity is a strong sense of self-awareness. E．Being a highly sensitive person can come with many challenges. F．It implies the ability to calmly face the setbacks and firmly move forward. G．Focus on long-term goals rather than the ups and downs of life at the moment. 【答案】1．B 2．F 3．D 4．G 5．C 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章首先解释了敏感性的定义和可能带来的问题，然后转向讨论不敏感性的力量，并给出了实践不敏感性的策略。 1．由上文“Being sensitive means that you are observant, careful, and thoughtful. It can also mean you sometimes overinterpret or overreact to perceived criticism or judgment. If you tend to be a highly sensitive person, you are more likely to misread signals from others, sense social threats, and struggle to adapt to new circumstances. (敏感意味着你善于观察、细心和深思熟虑。这也可能意味着你有时会过度解释或过度反应感知到的批评或判断。如果你是一个高度敏感的人，你更有可能误读他人的信号，感觉到社会威胁，并努力适应新环境)”可知，这里需要一个总结如何应对高度敏感的句子。B选项“That’s where the need to be insensitive comes from. (这就是麻木不仁的必要性的来源)”能承接上文，符合题意。故选B。 2．由上文“The power of insensitivity can be interpreted as “sluggish (迟钝的) power”.(不敏感的力量可以解释为“迟钝的力量”)”可知，上文提到了“迟钝的力量”，接下来应该解释这种力量具体意味着什么。F选项“It implies the ability to calmly face the setbacks and firmly move forward. (它意味着冷静面对挫折并坚定前行的能力)”恰当地解释了“迟钝力量”的正面含义，即在逆境中的韧性，能承接上文，符合题意。故选F。 3．由下文“That is one of the important reasons why insensitivity allows a person to better survive and adapt in a competitive environment. Knowing oneself is difficult, but knowing oneself correctly is undoubtedly an excellent ability — a trait shared by many successful people, who all clearly know where their strengths are, what they can do, what they want, and what direction to go. (这就是为什么不敏感能让一个人更好地在竞争环境中生存和适应的重要原因之一。认识自己是困难的，但正确地认识自己无疑是一种优秀的能力——这是许多成功人士共有的特点，他们都清楚地知道自己的长处在哪里，自己能做什么，自己想要什么，以及要走的方向)”可知，后文提及自我认知能力及成功人士的特点，此处应引出不敏感与自我意识之间的联系。D选项“Behind insensitivity is a strong sense of self-awareness. (在不敏感的背后是一种强烈的自我意识)”指出不敏感实际上是基于对自我的深刻了解，能引起下文，符合题意。故选D。 4．由上文“Practicing insensitivity involves several key strategies. Firstly, be assertive. Express our needs and opinions positively and with confidence. Secondly, adopt a forward-looking mindset.(练习不敏感包括几个关键的策略。首先，要自信。积极自信地表达我们的需求和意见。第二，树立前瞻性思维)”可知，该空需要接续前文关于前瞻性思维策略的内容。G选项“Focus on long-term goals rather than the ups and downs of life at the moment. (关注长期目标，而不是当下生活的起伏)”正好强调了如何实践前瞻性思维，即忽视短期波动，专注于长远规划，能承接上文，符合题意。故选G。 5．由下文“Once you become a bit “blunt” and slow down the pace, you will feel more comfortable (一旦你变得有点“生硬”，放慢节奏，你就会感觉更舒服)”可知，最后一段鼓励读者采纳不敏感的态度，并概述了这样做的好处。C选项“I hope everyone can obtain the ability to be insensitive. (我希望每个人都能获得不敏感的能力)”作为总结性质的句子，鼓励大家学会不敏感，适合放在最后一段段首作为寄语，且能引起下文，符合题意。故选C。 （九） 【来源】广西县域高中联盟2023-2024学年高二下学期期末英语试题 Health, as the old saying goes, is over wealth, so it’s of great significance to keep fit. You can take away our money, our house, or our clothes and we can survive. 1 That is why I eat healthfully, exercise regularly, and keep up my social life. Eating healthfully is important to maintain one’s health. I try to avoid foods high in fat like French fries or cookies. I also try to limit the amount of animal protein I consume. 2 So, it is important to know how to cook these foods so that the nutrients are not lost in the cooking process. Our muscles must continue to be strong to support our body as we age. Exercise helps the bones build density and helps us maintain our posture. 3 A regular exercise program of cardiovascular training and weight training is an important part of keeping us healthy. 4 Studies have shown that people with a wide range of social contacts get fewer colds and recover faster from diseases than those who aren’t socially active. For the sake of health, I like to play and interact with my friends and I always feel better when I am with them than when I am alone. By eating properly and exercising regularly, I can keep my body at an appropriate weight and can maintain my health. By spending time with my friends, I can keep my mind as well as my body happy. 5 A．It can also strengthen our muscles. B．Take away our health and we will die. C．Friends are an important part of one’s health. D．These are my three secrets to keeping a healthy lifestyle. E．Besides, I always stay away from junk food which lacks nutrients. F．By joining in relaxing activities, I can refresh myself to study well. G．Instead, I eat lots of vegetables and fruit which are rich in fiber and vitamins. 【答案】1．B 2．G 3．A 4．C 5．D 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了合理饮食、规律锻炼和活跃社交这三个保持健康的秘诀。 1．根据前文“You can take away our money, our house, or our clothes and we can survive.(你可以拿走我们的钱，拿走我们的房子，拿走我们的衣服，我们还能活下去。)”和后文“That is why I eat healthfully, exercise regularly, and keep up my social life.(这就是为什么我吃得健康，经常锻炼，保持我的社交生活。)”可知，此处是指拿走健康人便无法存活，所以选项B“拿走我们的健康，我们就会死去。”切合文意。故选B。 2．根据段落标题“ Eating healthfully is important to maintain one’s health.(健康饮食对保持健康很重要。) ”可知，本段讲述饮食健康对身体健康很重要，空处前文“I try to avoid foods high in fat like French fries or cookies. I also try to limit the amount of animal protein I consume.（我尽量避免吃高脂肪的食物，如炸薯条或饼干。我也尽量限制动物蛋白的摄入量。） ”阐述作者避免吃高脂肪的东西和动物蛋白，结合后文“So, it is important to know how to cook these foods so that the nutrients are not lost in the cooking process.(所以，知道如何烹饪这些食物是很重要的，这样营养成分才不会在烹饪过程中流失。)”可知，空处应是应该吃的东西，所以选项G项“相反，我吃很多富含纤维和维生素的蔬菜和水果。”符合语境，与前文形成对比，符合段落主旨，选项中的vegetables and fruits呼应下文these fooods，fiber and vitamins呼应下文nutritions。故选G。 3．根据前文“Exercise helps the bones build density and helps us maintain our posture.(锻炼有助于骨骼增强密度，帮助我们保持姿势。)”可知，此处是指锻炼对身体的好处，所以选项A“它还可以增强我们的肌肉。”切合文意。故选A。 4．根据后文“Studies have shown that people with a wide range of social contacts get fewer colds and recover faster from diseases than those who aren’t socially active.(研究表明，与那些不活跃社交的人相比，拥有广泛社交关系的人患感冒的几率更低，康复速度也更快。)”可知，此处是指朋友对健康的重要性，所以选项C“朋友是一个人健康的重要组成部分。”切合文意。故选C。 5．根据前文“By eating properly and exercising regularly, I can keep my body at an appropriate weight and can maintain my health. By spending time with my friends, I can keep my mind as well as my body happy.(通过合理的饮食和有规律的锻炼，我可以保持我的身体在一个适当的体重，可以保持我的健康。通过花时间与我的朋友，我可以保持我的思想以及我的身体快乐。)”可知，此处是指合理饮食、规律锻炼和活跃社交这三个保持健康的秘诀，所以选项D“这是我保持健康生活方式的三个秘诀。”切合文意。故选D。 （十） 【来源】湖南省常德市第一中学2023-2024学年高二下学期期末考试英语试题 We’ve heard of IQ and EQ, which are commonly used. But have you heard of AQ — adversity quotient (逆境商数)? Sometimes, unfavorable situations can take us by surprise or shock us. It could be failed friendships or financial hard times in our life. 1 AQ measures our ability to hear the shocks. It can be used to predict our attitudes, perseverance, and the way we deal with changes in life and work. So the ability is important not only in life but also in work. 2 Luckily, there are some suggestions to help you be more resilient (适应力的) and adaptable in the face of adversity (逆境), according to Dr Shahram Heshmat, a professor of health economics. * 3 Resilient people often have an aim and are able to concentrate more on a desired outcome, seeing negative situations as a small stone on the way to achieving their goals. * Learn to relax and regulate your emotions. 4 Talking about unpleasant things in detail can make you stressed and breathe heavily. To see difficulties more as an opportunity to learn and grow is important emotionally. * Ensure you have a good social support network. You should learn to pour out the trouble to families or close friends. 5 In short, we can’t predict and prevent something unpleasant. But, if we develop our resilience, it will become easier to get through such hard times. A．Try to find a meaningful goal. B．Deal with the ups and downs of life. C．But how can we develop our resilience? D．The support of others can help you adapt quickly. E．Our resilience is a must when there is a great change. F．Also it could be missing a chance of promotion in work. G．It helps you relieve stress by practising breathing calmly. 【答案】1．F 2．C 3．A 4．G 5．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。介绍了逆境商数的概念和重要性，并给出了一些提高适应力和适应逆境的建议。 1．根据上文“It could be failed friendships or financial hard times in our life.（它可能是失败的友谊或我们生活中的经济困难时期。）”可知此处应继续列举生活中其他的逆境情况，F项“Also it could be missing a chance of promotion in work.”（也可能是错过工作中的晋升机会。）符合语境，故选F。 2．根据下文“Luckily, there are some suggestions to help you be more resilient (适应力的) and adaptable in the face of adversity (逆境)（幸运的是，有一些建议可以帮助你在面对逆境时更有弹性和适应能力。）”可知此处提出如何培养适应力的问题，C项“But how can we develop our resilience?”（但是我们如何培养我们的适应力呢？）符合语境，故选C。 3．根据下文“Resilient people often have an aim and are able to concentrate more on a desired outcome（有适应力的人通常有一个目标，并且能够更专注于一个期望的结果）”可知此处强调要找到有意义的目标，A项“Try to find a meaningful goal.”（试着找到一个有意义的目标。）符合语境，故选A。 4．根据上文“Learn to relax and regulate your emotions.（学会放松和调节你的情绪。）”以及下文“Talking about unpleasant things in detail can make you stressed and breathe heavily.（详细谈论不愉快的事情会让你感到压力并呼吸沉重。）”可知此处应说明放松调节情绪的具体方式，G项“It helps you relieve stress by practising breathing calmly.（它通过练习平静呼吸来帮助你缓解压力。）”符合语境，故选G。 5．根据上文“You should learn to pour out the trouble to families or close friends.（你应该学会向家人或亲密朋友倾诉烦恼。）”可知此处强调他人支持的作用，D项“The support of others can help you adapt quickly.（他人的支持可以帮助你快速适应。）”符合语境，故选D。 （十一） 【来源】陕西省宝鸡市渭滨区2023-2024学年高二下学期期末质量监测英语试卷 How to Choose Your Purpose-Filled Career When you think about choosing a career, you often do it in the following two ways. 1 . If you like writing or doing crafts, you might consider these things. This is not a bad way to go, of course, but you can’t always make money doing things you like (like video games or drinking beer). And sometimes things you like are better as a hobby or side passion. Think about a well-paid job that you can do and doesn’t sound so bad. Maybe a doctor, engineer or lawyer? Or maybe that’s out of your educational reach, so you choose office or retail worker. 2 but often they are not something you’re really passionate about. It’s kind of like just doing something because it’s there-- not very inspired. However, there’s another way that is perhaps better: 3 . For example, taking care of children, because you really want to help children get a great start in life, or blossom into who they want to be or getting into government or social work to improve the conditions of the community you live in or becoming a scientist to help ease the environmental crisis or find a cure for a terrible disease. 4 and if you choose one of them for that purpose, you will serve in that work feeling a sense of purpose each day. There are endless ways to do that. The point isn’t how you serve the world, but just serving the world in some way will help you feel filled with purpose. 5 . A．These are all great choices B．Think about what you like to do C．You can identify your purpose and work out how to get there D．Each of these is just one of many possibilities filled with purpose E．Try to do something to serve a community or make the world better F．The sooner you complete the training requirements, the sooner you will make a living G．If you choose a purposeful and enjoyable job, you’re always further along than most people 【答案】1．B 2．A 3．E 4．D 5．G 【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍如何选择对你富有意义的职业。 1．上文“When you think about choosing a career, you often do it in the following two ways.（当你考虑择业时，你通常会用以下两种方式来选择。）”说明接下来将会分别介绍两种选择职业的方法。下文“If you like writing or doing crafts, you might consider these things（如果你喜欢写作或做工艺品，你可以考虑这些事情）”说明可以把自己喜欢做的事当成职业。B项“Think about what you like to do（想想你喜欢做什么）”能够概括本段的内容。故选B项。 2．上文“Maybe a doctor, engineer or lawyer? Or maybe that’s out of your educational reach, so you choose office or retail worker.（也许是医生、工程师或律师？又或许这超出了你的教育能力范围，所以你选择了办公室职员或零售员。）”介绍了一些可能的职业选择。下文“but often they are not something you’re really passionate about.（但它们往往不是你真正感兴趣的事情。）”表示转折，说明空处讲的是对这样这些职业的总结和概括。A项“These are all great choices（这些都是很好的选择）” 承接上文且与下文为转折关系，符合语境。故选A项。 3．上文“However, there’s another way that is perhaps better（然而，还有另一种可能更好的方法）”说明接下来要讲另一种选择职业的办法。下文“For example, taking care of children, because you really want to help children get a great start in life, or blossom into who they want to be or getting into government or social work to improve the conditions of the community you live in or becoming a scientist to help ease the environmental crisis or find a cure for a terrible disease.（例如照顾孩子，因为你真的想帮助孩子获得一个良好的开端或者变成他们想成为的人；或者做政府或社会工作来改善你居住的社区的条件；或者成为一名科学家，帮助缓解环境危机，或者找到治愈一种可怕疾病的方法。）”列举了一些更有意义的职业选择。E项“Try to do something to serve a community or make the world better（试着做些事情来服务社区或者让世界变得更好）”承上启下，符合语境。故选E项。 4．下文“and if you choose one of them for that purpose, you will serve in that work feeling a sense of purpose each day.（如果你为了这个目的而选择其中一个，你就会在工作中每天都有使命感。）”说明有目标地选择职业的好处。D项“Each of these is just one of many possibilities filled with purpose（这其中的每一种都只是众多充满目的的可能性中的一种）”中的purpose和下文中that purpose相呼应，说明选择这些职业就会充满目的性，引出下文。故选D项。 5．上文“The point isn’t how you serve the world, but just serving the world in some way will help you feel filled with purpose.（重要的不是你如何为这个世界服务，而是只是以某种方式为这个世界服务会让你感到充满目标。）”。说明选择一些有意义的工作带给你目标感。G项“If you choose a purposeful and enjoyable job, you’re always further along than most people（如果你选择了一份有目的且有趣的工作，你总是比大多数人走得更远）”进一步说明选择一份有目标的工作带给你的意义，承接上文，符合语境。故选G项。 （十二） 【来源】江西省部分名校2023-2024学年高二（新高三）下学期7月期末联考英语试题 Learning a foreign language can be difficult, but if you follow certain techniques, you’ll be able to learn any language soon. Although there’s no easy way to go about it, with some hard work and practice, you can be fluent in the near future. Learn from your past experience. If you’ve learned languages in the past, go over what you learned then and try to figure out what was most effective for you. 1 What didn’t? Which parts of the process did you find easy? Which parts were hard? When you’ve sorted this out, you’ll be ready to start learning the language. Study English Phonology (音系学). English Phonology deals with English pronunciation. 2 You can find many websites and online videos on English Phonology. Relate English pronunciation with other language pronunciation. Pay attention to the grammar. 3 “Paul want Mary go store” may communicate an idea, but it is not at all correct English. If you do not pay attention to grammar, you can sound equally incomprehensible in another language. 4 Just imagine you went to a shopping center. Then think how you would interact with people. Write the whole conversation in your native language then translate every sentence into the required language. Memorize 30 words and phrases each day. Start with the most common words. Memorization is half the battle and there are many different ways to memorize. You can practice writing each word a dozen times. 5 A．What helped you learn? B．Speak with native speakers.

If you’ve learned languages in the past, go over what you learned then and try to figure out what was most effective for you.(从过去的经验中学习。如果你在过去学过语言，那就复习一下你学过的东西，然后找出对你最有效的方法)”和下文的“What didn’t? Which parts of the process did you find easy? Which parts were hard? When you’ve sorted this out, you’ll be ready to start learning the language.(什么没有？你觉得这个过程的哪一部分容易？哪些部分是困难的？当你解决了这些问题，你就可以开始学习这门语言了。)”可知，A项(什么对你的学习有帮助？)承接上文，说明你要回顾过去的学习经验，找出对你有帮助的学习方法，并引出下文，指出在回顾的过程中有哪些具体问题要弄清楚。故选A项。 2．根据上文的“Study English Phonology. English Phonology deals with English pronunciation.(学习英语音系学。英语音系学研究英语发音)”和下文的“You can find many websites and online videos on English Phonology. Relate English pronunciation with other language pronunciation.(你可以找到很多关于英语音韵学的网站和在线视频。将英语发音与其他语言发音联系起来)”可知，E项(它有助于理解其他语言的发音。)承接上文，指出了学习英语音系学的原因，并引出下文，具体介绍如何去做。故选E项。 3．根据上文的“Pay attention to the grammar.(注意语法)”和下文的““Paul want Mary go store” may communicate an idea, but it is not at all correct English. If you do not pay attention to grammar, you can sound equally incomprehensible in another language.(“保罗想让玛丽去商店”可能传达了一个想法，但它根本不是正确的英语。如果你不注意语法，你说的另一种语言听起来同样难以理解)”可知，G项(这可能是语言中除了词汇之外最重要的部分。)承接上文，说明了学习语法的重要性，并引出下文，指出不重视语法的后果。故选G项。 4．根据下文的“Just imagine you went to a shopping center. Then think how you would interact with people. Write the whole conversation in your native language then translate every sentence into the required language.(想象一下你去了一家购物中心。然后想想你将如何与人互动。用你的母语把整个对话写下来，然后把每个句子翻译成所需的语言)”可知，在日常生活中，可以把想要说的话先用母语写出来，然后再翻译成目标语言，F项(将你的母语翻译成所需语言。)作为段首句提出这个建议，符合语境。故选F项。 5．根据上文的“Memorize 30 words and phrases each day. Start with the most common words. Memorization is half the battle and there are many different ways to memorize. You can practice writing each word a dozen times.(每天记住30个单词和短语。从最常见的单词开始。记忆是成功的一半，有很多不同的记忆方法。每个单词你都可以练习写十几遍)”可知，D项(这种方法会让你习惯使用单词本身。)承接上文，说明了将每个单词写十几遍，这样会有助于你使用单词。故选D项。 （十三） 【来源】黑龙江省大庆市让胡路区大庆市大庆中学2023-2024学年高二下学期7月期末英语试题 Have you ever complained that there just aren’t enough hours in a day? Do you usually find yourself falling short on time in completing assigned tasks? 1 No matter how hard I tried to be focused and productive, tasks just kept piling up towards the end every day. That didn’t change until I discovered Time Blocking, since when my daily schedule has been transformed for the better. So what is it exactly? It is a simple time management technique where you divided your day into time blocks that are dedicated to specific tasks or groups of tasks. It’s a popular method to boost your productivity and allow you to focus on your tasks. 2 Imagine that a dozen or so tasks are due tomorrow. Like a majority of people, you open your to-do app of choice and neatly list down everything that you plan to do, and then plot some important meetings and reminders in your calendar app. 3 . Once you start Time Blocking, you’ll overcome this shortcoming. 4 The more specific you are about the task, the more focused you will be and thus, more productive. A properly organized time-blocked schedule is far more effective than any form of to-do list. 5 It not only makes your to-do list more manageable, but also it gives you more control over your day and increases your productivity. Each task or group of tasks in a day is a small-scale goal for you to achieve within that time-frame, so you are more determined to meet deadlines and reach your goals. It also improves your focus and helps get rid of procrastination (拖延症), as you are only working on one specific task at a time. A．I used to be in the same boat. B．I believe you have encountered questions like this C．The benefits of Time Blocking are considerable. D．You work your way down the priority list and everything goes as planned. E．You can regard it as a combination of a To-do list and a Calendar schedule. F．You’ll need to be very specific about what you’re planning to do in that time block. G．While it sounds logical, it makes you jump between different kinds of tasks without focus. 【答案】1．A 2．E 3．G 4．F 5．C 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种时间管理技巧“时间保护”，介绍了其操作方式以及好处。 1．根据上文“Have you ever complained that there just aren’t enough hours in a day? Do you usually find yourself falling short on time in completing assigned tasks?(你是否曾经抱怨过一天的时间不够用？你是否经常发现自己不能按时完成分配给你的任务？)”以及后文“No matter how hard I tried to be focused and productive, tasks just kept piling up towards the end every day. That didn’t change until I discovered Time Blocking, since when my daily schedule has been transformed for the better. So what is it exactly?(无论我多么努力地保持专注和高效，每天的任务总是堆积如山。这种情况一直没有改变，直到我发现了“时间保护”，从那时起，我的日常安排就变得更好了。那么它到底是什么呢？)”可知，后文提到了作者自己也经历过时间不够用的情况，即作者以前也是时间不够用。故A选项“我以前也是这样”符合语境，故选A。 2．根据上文“It is a simple time management technique where you divided your day into time blocks that are dedicated to specific tasks or groups of tasks. It’s a popular method to boost your productivity and allow you to focus on your tasks.(这是一种简单的时间管理技巧，你可以把一天的时间分成几个时间段，专门处理特定的任务或任务组。这是一种流行的方法，可以提高你的工作效率，让你专注于你的任务)”可知，上文介绍了一种时间管理技巧，且提到了“把一天的时间分成几个时间段，专门处理特定的任务或任务组”，即把待办事项列表和日历计划相结合，故E选项“你可以把它看作是待办事项列表和日历计划的结合”符合语境，故选E。 3．根据上文“Imagine that a dozen or so tasks are due tomorrow. Like a majority of people, you open your to-do app of choice and neatly list down everything that you plan to do, and then plot some important meetings and reminders in your calendar app.(想象一下，明天有十几个任务要完成。像大多数人一样，你打开你选择的待办事项应用程序，整齐地列出你计划做的所有事情，然后在你的日历应用程序中安排一些重要的会议和提醒)”可知，本句为本段最后一句，应对上文的做法进行总结：这听起来合乎逻辑，但它会让你在不同的任务之间跳来跳去，无法集中注意力。故G选项“虽然这听起来合乎逻辑，但它会让你在不同的任务之间跳来跳去，无法集中注意力”符合语境，故选G。 4．根据上文“Once you start Time Blocking, you’ll overcome this shortcoming.(一旦你开始“时间保护”，你就会克服这个缺点)”以及后文“The more specific you are about the task, the more focused you will be and thus, more productive. A properly organized time-blocked schedule is far more effective than any form of to-do list.(你的任务越具体，你就越专注，也就越有效率。一个合理安排的时间表比任何形式的任务清单都要有效得多)”可知，本句主要说明是如何通过“时间保护”克服这个缺点的，F选项中specific对应后文specific。故F选项“你需要非常具体地说明你在那段时间内计划做什么”符合语境，故选F。 5．根据后文“It not only makes your to-do list more manageable, but also it gives you more control over your day and increases your productivity. Each task or group of tasks in a day is a small-scale goal for you to achieve within that time-frame, so you are more determined to meet deadlines and reach your goals. It also improves your focus and helps get rid of procrastination (拖延症), as you are only working on one specific task at a time.(它不仅使你的待办事项清单更易于管理，而且还能让你更好地控制你的一天，提高你的效率。一天中的每一项任务或一组任务都是你在这个时间框架内完成的一个小目标，这样你就更有决心在最后期限前完成目标。它还能提高你的注意力，帮助你摆脱拖延症，因为你一次只做一件特定的任务)”可知，本段的主旨主要关于时间保护带来的好处。故C选项“时间保护的好处是相当可观的”符合语境，故选C。 （十四） 【来源】河北省河北名校联盟2023-2024学年高二下学期7月期末英语试题 How to Tolerate Those You Have a Personality Conflict With? Living or working with people who have very different personalities or beliefs from you can present challenges. 1 Here are some strategics to help you navigate these difficult interactions and maintain healthy relationships and a harmonious environment. 2 In many cases, a personality conflict arises because of expectations, differences of opinion, or some other underlying issues. Consider if you’ve had a bad experience with the person, or if you’re relying on rumors (谣言) or someone else’s conflict to inform your opinion on the person. Figuring out the roots may help you realize that your conflict is foolish. Get to know the person. Every person has their own perspectives that are formed based on their experiences. Consider where this person is coming from through his or her behaviors. 3 Acknowledging that his or her perspectives differ from yours can help you to give the person a chance. Identify the virtues in the person. Holding on to negative thoughts and attitudes about another person is draining (使心力交瘁的). 4 Learn to see the positive in any person. Even the worst person has good qualities. It might take some time to recognize them, but being able to see the positive traits in a person can help you to shift your relationship with him or her. Limit interactions with the person. If you genuinely find it challenging to put up with someone, minimize interactions with him or her. There are different ways to achieve it. For example, if you are at social settings, don’t sit near him or her or move if he or she is close to you. Nevertheless, sometimes you have to engage with the person either professionally or personally. 5 A．Let go of your expectations. B．You are ultimately the judge of your situation. C．Determine the source of your conflict with the person. D．When you constantly harbor them, they can become stronger. E．Should this occur, remember to keep the contact civil and polite. F．Relevant context information can help you accept the person as he or she is. G．However, learning to tolerate and manage these differences is mentally crucial. 【答案】1．G 2．C 3．F 4．D 5．E 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章就如何容忍与你性格有冲突的人提出建议。 1．根据上文“Living or working with people who have very different personalities or beliefs from you can present challenges.(与个性或信仰与你截然不同的人一起生活或工作可能会带来挑战。)”和下文“Here are some strategics to help you navigate these difficult interactions and maintain healthy relationships and a harmonious environment.(这里有一些策略可以帮助你应对这些困难的互动，保持健康的关系和和谐的环境。)”可知，上文提到与个性或信仰与你截然不同的人一起生活或工作可能会带来挑战，下文提到有一些策略可以解决这个问题，空处应该承上启下，指出学会应对这种挑战的重要性。G项：However, learning to tolerate and manage these differences is mentally crucial.(然而，学会容忍和管理这些差异在心理上是至关重要的。)符合语境。故选G。 2．空处为段落主题句。根据下文“Figuring out the roots may help you realize that your conflict is foolish.(找出根源可能会帮助你意识到你的冲突是愚蠢的。)”可知，本段建议找出冲突的根源。C项：Determine the source of your conflict with the person.(确定你与对方冲突的根源。)符合语境。C项中的“source”和下文中的“roots”对应。故选C。 3．根据上文“Get to know the person. Every person has their own perspectives that are formed based on their experiences. Consider where this person is coming from through his or her behaviors.(了解这个人。每个人都有自己的基于自己经历而形成的观点。通过他的行为来思考这个人是怎么来的。)”可知，上文提到要考虑这个人的经历和行为，而F选项中的“Relevant context information”指的是与这个人相关的背景信息，这些信息可以帮助你接受他或她原本的样子。所以F项：Relevant context information can help you accept the person as he or she is.(相关的语境信息可以帮助你接受这个人的本来面目。)符合语境。故选F。 4．根据上文“Holding on to negative thoughts and attitudes about another person is draining (使心力交瘁的).(坚持对另一个人的消极想法和态度会让人心力交瘁。)”和下文“Learn to see the positive in any person.(学会看到别人积极的一面。)”可知，上文提到坚持对另一个人的消极想法和态度是消耗精力的，而下文则提到学会看到任何人的积极面，因此可以推断出空处需要一个过渡句。D项：When you constantly harbor them, they can become stronger.(当你不断保持这些消极想法时，它们会变得更强)符合语境，D项中的“them”指代上文中的“negative thoughts and attitudes”。故选D。 5．根据上文“Nevertheless, sometimes you have to engage with the person either professionally or personally.(尽管如此，有时候你还是必须和这个人进行专业或私人的接触。)”可知，上文提到有时候不得不与这个人进行专业或个人交流。E项：Should this occur, remember to keep the contact civil and polite.(如果发生这种情况，记得要保持文明和礼貌的联系。)承接上文，表示如果发生这种情况，要记得保持礼貌和文明的联系。故选E。 （十五） 【来源】辽宁省沈阳市郊联体2023-2024学年高二下学期7月期末英语试题 How to overcome travel anxiety Stress and anxiety around documents and procedures of travel is common.

It’s believing in a brighter future and acting towards it. 1 Here are strategies that can help cultivate hope. As Hellman, an assistant professor of psychology at Suffolk University in Boston, points out, “Hope begets hope, and it has such a significant protective factor.” 2 Make it a point to always be working toward at least one goal that’s meaningful, Hellman advises. In other words, it shouldn’t be something you have to do but something you want to do. “Goals can be anything that’s important to us,” he says. Brainstorm solutions. If you’ve set a goal that’s meaningful to you, but you can’t figure out a way to achieve it, you’ll probably feel pretty hopeless. People who are high in hope, meanwhile, tend to generate lots of ways. 3 If you’re struggling to make a plan, Hellman suggests sitting down with a pen and paper and giving yourself an hour to brainstorm solutions. Seek out success stories. It’s said that people cultivate hope by seeking support from their parents and specific teachers. But they also got a lot out of learning about other people who have done well for themselves. Hellman says, “ 4 ” Tap into your imagination. Hellman thinks of imagination as “the instrument of hope”. Let’s say you set a goal for the week. Spend a few minutes reflecting on or talking about what would happen if you achieved it. “How does it impact you, or how would it benefit others?” he says. “ 5 And when you can see yourself in the future, that is the very essence of hope.” A．Do something meaningful. B．It can be taught and nurtured. C．Think in a goal-oriented way. D．With these good examples, people are bound to be successful. E．So, if one doesn’t work out, they have an alternative at the ready.

But do you know "dopamine dressing"? It is one of the hottest fashion trends ruling social media in 2023. 1 . Dopamine dressing is nothing new. In fact, a study published in 2012 found that when participants were asked to wear clothing that held some symbolic meaning, their confidence increased. The study determined that clothing can have a direct impact on their psychological process. 2 . It suggested that dressing in a certain way can influence the way we make decisions. "What we wear is how we show ourselves to those we interact with — we are influenced by their reaction to it. If we are well received, 3 ," one of the leading researchers Mair added. Actually, dopamine dressing is different for everyone. It's about wearing the clothes that make you feel good. 4 ; it could be your favorite pair of jeans; or it could be that dress you were saving for a special occasion. In a word, it's OK to wear anything that can boost your mood. Color psychologist Karen Haller said, " 5 . Our confidence can be boosted when we wear colors that we love and feel good in. We feel and behave differently when we take the colors in through our eyes and through the part of our brain where our emotions exist." Ultimately, dopamine dressing is whatever makes you feel good.

Whether you’re trying to read the fine print in a commercial or trying to make out a person’s face from a distance — it always helps to see better when you squint (眯起) your eyes. 1    There’s a common assumption that you’re adding much stress to your eyeballs by squeezing them to make them work better. 2 If you think for a while, you’ll find squinting is a different matter. If squinting meant making your eyes become stress balls, we’d all be in a lot of trouble. 3 When light hits an object, it bounces off its surface and enters our eyes. The light travels through the eye lens (晶状体). The lens then focuses the light rays, which fall on the retina (视网膜). A chemical present in the retina turns light into electric signals, which are then transmitted to the brain. The brain processes the signals and ultimately allows us to see stuff. The act of squinting, quite obviously, alters the shape of the space through which light passes, which helps us form a clear image on the retina. What’s more, light from different directions enters and is subsequently perceived by the eye. 4 However, when you’re trying to focus on something, if there’s light entering from multiple directions, the lens will be overloaded. By squinting, focusing light rays becomes more precise. Squinting does not damage your eyesight. 5 It’s one thing to occasionally squint in order to make out something far away. But if you find yourself doing it all the time, getting your eyes tested should be your focus. A．Actually, that’s not exactly the case. B．Has it ever occurred to you why this happens? C．Squinting does two major things to improve our vision. D．However, doing it for long periods of time can lead to dry eyes. E．Normally, this is a great thing, as it feeds your situational awareness. F．A number of biological components actually constitute the human eye. G．Before revealing the secret behind it, let’s learn about how we see things. （四） 【来源】陕西省西安市铁一中学2023-2024学年高二下学期期末考试英语试题 Friends are incredibly important people in our lives. Some are with us for decades. 1 Here are some tips to remember if you’re processing the loss of a friend. Sometimes things just don’t work out. 2 In fact, people, on average, lose about half of their friends every seven years. One of the most common reasons those relationships end is that they just fell through the cracks. Things didn’t work out. Nobody really wanted the friendship to end, but people got busy and didn’t intentionally maintain the friendship. Make the unsaid said. Sometimes, in friendship, people don’t make the unsaid said. 3 And because they’re never directly addressed, people get to a point where they want to end the friendship before actually addressing the problem. Actually, if they had intervened sooner, they might have been able to save the friendship. It’s normal to feel grief. When a friendship ends, there is a grieving process. Allow yourself to feel those emotions and be patient. Instead of pushing yourself to cheer up, try thinking like this, “Of course I’m upset. This is a natural part of intimacy (亲密关系) and loss. I lost someone I’m very close to. 4 5 It’s important not to blame yourself and be mean to yourself for not getting over the loss of a friendship. Just because this happened like this doesn’t mean more friendships will happen like this. Allow yourself to have a fresh perspective when you enter new friendships. You don’t want to go into a new connection fearfully. A．That means I love them deeply. B．Be kind to yourself along the way. C．Find ways to enter a new friendship. D．Small things can kind of accumulate. E．Losing friends is a regular part of life. F．But not all of them can stand the test of time. G．When a close friendship ends, the reasons are complicated. （五） 【来源】山东省德州市2023-2024学年高二下学期期末考试英语试题 It is rightly said “Time and Tide wait for none”. But a number of people today have difficulty successfully managing time. 1 Now let’s take a look at a list of 4 skills you should master about time management. Set priorities. Write out all the tasks you need to get through for the day and then prioritize them in accordance with their level of significance. 2 Meanwhile, it also assists to guarantee that the most important things are done on time. 3 Certain activities, though seemingly harmless, significantly affect productivity. Instagram and Facebook, for instance, could easily consume hours that are better spent on studying or rest. To combat this, using time management tools that track how much time you spend online highlights areas for improvement. Do less. This is a trick from Leo Babauta, who started the blog Zen Habits. In his opinion, doing less doesn't mean “less is more”. It means “less is better”. 4 This is achieved by slowing down and concentrating only on those things. Once you do, make every action count. As a result, you'll be creating more value instead of just fodder. Relax at Appropriate Intervals. Control your performance over time by taking more pauses. According to Nathaniel Kleitman, a sleep scientist, “our brains naturally desire rest after every 90 minutes of hard activity.” Your mind will let you understand that you require a break when you start to feel sleepy, restless, hungry or lose concentration regardless of whether or not you have such a timer set. 5 Embrace these strategies, adapt them to your specific needs, and reclaim control over your time management. Your future self will thank you for it! A．Stay creative. B．Eliminate Time-wasters. C．Be aware of what needs to be done. D．You can not apply that to time management. E．It may improve the chances of achieving objectives. F．You realize it’s time to step back when you start feeling like this. G．This in turn, leads to a decline in production as well as a rise in their anxiety levels. （六） 【来源】四川省宜宾市普通高中2023-2024学年高二下学期期末学业质量监测英语试题 To read poetry like a poet A great poem can be there for you. It can help you process sadness, anger or fear. 1 . Franny Choi, an educator, says some poems make her “get out of my chair and shout it from the rooftops.” Here are tips to help you meaningfully connect to a poem. Don’t approach poetry like it’s school. The way to engage with a poem taught in school is by trying to understand it, master it and take an exam, which keeps us from developing personal relationships with poetry. 2 , due to no quiz at the end! Don’t worry about “getting it”. People often pressure themselves to interpret a poem, or figure out what the poet conveyed. Don’t do it, says Mullen, a poet and professor. 3 : what overall impression do you get? What ideas float around in mind? “Those overall impressions, I think most of us do get,” says Mullen. Read it out loud. “Poetry was an oral art form before anything else,” says Choi. “And much information can be gained from reading poems loud.” As an exercise, try reading a poem aloud in different ways: like tasting every word and every syllable; like explaining something tough to someone else. 4 . 5 . A poem might offer visual imagery. If not, go ahead and fill them in with your imagination. “Think of the poem like a movie director,” says Mullen, “What colors would you use? What kind of setting is there?” These brain pictures will illuminate whatever it is you seem to be getting out of the poem. A．Visualize the poem B．Read a bunch of poetry C．So rest easy when reading a poem D．Or make you feel happy or excited E．Instead, ask about your opinion of the poem F．Or better yet, head to your local poetry circle G．It may help further your knowledge of the poem （七） 【来源】河南开封各县市重点高中2023-2024学年高二下学期期末考试英语试题 While there are numerous tools to help you determine your strengths, try starting with these questions.

Tell them you need their help in identifying your three top qualities or strengths. You’ll quickly start receiving responses. Start a list from the answers you receive. 2 . Take the three most common answers and use them as your guide. What do you do every day? Most people tend to spend time on the things they like to do rather than the things they don’t like. 3 . If you find yourself easily making time to read to your kids but avoid making dinner, this behavior could be telling you something. People move toward things they’re naturally good at doing. 4 ? What people think you do and what they say about you are two different things. For example, they may think you’re cleaning all day long but still think you’re a terrible housekeeper. So you need to question people about it and tell them it’s okay to tell the truth because this is about your personal development. What is one mistake you keep repeating? Albert Einstein is known to have described insanity (精神错乱) as doing the same thing over and over but expecting different results. Are you caught in the insanity trap? For me, it was making bread.

It can also mean you sometimes overinterpret or overreact to perceived criticism or judgment. If you tend to be a highly sensitive person, you are more likely to misread signals from others, sense social threats, and struggle to adapt to new circumstances. 1 The power of insensitivity can be interpreted as “sluggish (迟钝的) power” . 2 For example, those working on complex research projects with “sluggish power” persist with focus and determination in the face of challenges such as tight deadlines and limited resources. Their resilience facilitates effective problem-solving, ensuring the successful completion of tasks despite obstacles. 3 That is one of the important reasons why insensitivity allows a person to better survive and adapt in a competitive environment. Knowing oneself is difficult, but knowing oneself correctly is undoubtedly an excellent ability — a trait shared by many successful people, who all clearly know where their strengths are, what they can do, what they want, and what direction to go. Practicing insensitivity involves several key strategies. Firstly, be assertive. Express our needs and opinions positively and with confidence. Secondly, adopt a forward-looking mindset. 4 Additionally, detach from external influences. Avoid excessive concern over others’ opinions and speculation on others’ thoughts. Lastly, manage relationships. Recognize our personal responsibilities while respecting others’ boundaries. Don’t interfere with other people’s subjects and don’t let others interfere with ours either. 5 Once you become a bit “blunt” and slow down the pace, you will feel more comfortable. A．Learn to view the problem as two parts. B．That’s where the need to be insensitive comes from. C．I hope everyone can obtain the ability to be insensitive. D．Behind insensitivity is a strong sense of self-awareness. E．Being a highly sensitive person can come with many challenges. F．It implies the ability to calmly face the setbacks and firmly move forward. G．Focus on long-term goals rather than the ups and downs of life at the moment. （九） 【来源】广西县域高中联盟2023-2024学年高二下学期期末英语试题 Health, as the old saying goes, is over wealth, so it’s of great significance to keep fit. You can take away our money, our house, or our clothes and we can survive. 1 That is why I eat healthfully, exercise regularly, and keep up my social life. Eating healthfully is important to maintain one’s health. I try to avoid foods high in fat like French fries or cookies. I also try to limit the amount of animal protein I consume. 2 So, it is important to know how to cook these foods so that the nutrients are not lost in the cooking process. Our muscles must continue to be strong to support our body as we age. Exercise helps the bones build density and helps us maintain our posture. 3 A regular exercise program of cardiovascular training and weight training is an important part of keeping us healthy. 4 Studies have shown that people with a wide range of social contacts get fewer colds and recover faster from diseases than those who aren’t socially active. For the sake of health, I like to play and interact with my friends and I always feel better when I am with them than when I am alone. By eating properly and exercising regularly, I can keep my body at an appropriate weight and can maintain my health. By spending time with my friends, I can keep my mind as well as my body happy. 5 A．It can also strengthen our muscles. B．Take away our health and we will die. C．Friends are an important part of one’s health. D．These are my three secrets to keeping a healthy lifestyle. E．Besides, I always stay away from junk food which lacks nutrients.

But have you heard of AQ — adversity quotient (逆境商数)? Sometimes, unfavorable situations can take us by surprise or shock us. It could be failed friendships or financial hard times in our life. 1 AQ measures our ability to hear the shocks. It can be used to predict our attitudes, perseverance, and the way we deal with changes in life and work. So the ability is important not only in life but also in work. 2 Luckily, there are some suggestions to help you be more resilient (适应力的) and adaptable in the face of adversity (逆境), according to Dr Shahram Heshmat, a professor of health economics. * 3 Resilient people often have an aim and are able to concentrate more on a desired outcome, seeing negative situations as a small stone on the way to achieving their goals. * Learn to relax and regulate your emotions. 4 Talking about unpleasant things in detail can make you stressed and breathe heavily. To see difficulties more as an opportunity to learn and grow is important emotionally. * Ensure you have a good social support network. You should learn to pour out the trouble to families or close friends. 5 In short, we can’t predict and prevent something unpleasant. But, if we develop our resilience, it will become easier to get through such hard times. A．Try to find a meaningful goal. B．Deal with the ups and downs of life. C．But how can we develop our resilience? D．The support of others can help you adapt quickly. E．Our resilience is a must when there is a great change. F．Also it could be missing a chance of promotion in work.

If you like writing or doing crafts, you might consider these things. This is not a bad way to go, of course, but you can’t always make money doing things you like (like video games or drinking beer). And sometimes things you like are better as a hobby or side passion. Think about a well-paid job that you can do and doesn’t sound so bad. Maybe a doctor, engineer or lawyer? Or maybe that’s out of your educational reach, so you choose office or retail worker. 2 but often they are not something you’re really passionate about. It’s kind of like just doing something because it’s there-- not very inspired. However, there’s another way that is perhaps better: 3 . For example, taking care of children, because you really want to help children get a great start in life, or blossom into who they want to be or getting into government or social work to improve the conditions of the community you live in or becoming a scientist to help ease the environmental crisis or find a cure for a terrible disease. 4 and if you choose one of them for that purpose, you will serve in that work feeling a sense of purpose each day. There are endless ways to do that. The point isn’t how you serve the world, but just serving the world in some way will help you feel filled with purpose. 5 . A．These are all great choices B．Think about what you like to do C．You can identify your purpose and work out how to get there D．Each of these is just one of many possibilities filled with purpose E．Try to do something to serve a community or make the world better F．The sooner you complete the training requirements, the sooner you will make a living G．If you choose a purposeful and enjoyable job, you’re always further along than most people （十二） 【来源】江西省部分名校2023-2024学年高二（新高三）下学期7月期末联考英语试题 Learning a foreign language can be difficult, but if you follow certain techniques, you’ll be able to learn any language soon. Although there’s no easy way to go about it, with some hard work and practice, you can be fluent in the near future. Learn from your past experience. If you’ve learned languages in the past, go over what you learned then and try to figure out what was most effective for you. 1 What didn’t? Which parts of the process did you find easy? Which parts were hard? When you’ve sorted this out, you’ll be ready to start learning the language. Study English Phonology (音系学). English Phonology deals with English pronunciation. 2 You can find many websites and online videos on English Phonology. Relate English pronunciation with other language pronunciation. Pay attention to the grammar. 3 “Paul want Mary go store” may communicate an idea, but it is not at all correct English. If you do not pay attention to grammar, you can sound equally incomprehensible in another language. 4 Just imagine you went to a shopping center. Then think how you would interact with people. Write the whole conversation in your native language then translate every sentence into the required language. Memorize 30 words and phrases each day. Start with the most common words. Memorization is half the battle and there are many different ways to memorize. You can practice writing each word a dozen times. 5 A．What helped you learn? B．Speak with native speakers. C．What is the best method suitable for you? D．This way will get you used to using the word itself. E．It helps in understanding pronunciation of other languages.

That didn’t change until I discovered Time Blocking, since when my daily schedule has been transformed for the better. So what is it exactly? It is a simple time management technique where you divided your day into time blocks that are dedicated to specific tasks or groups of tasks. It’s a popular method to boost your productivity and allow you to focus on your tasks. 2 Imagine that a dozen or so tasks are due tomorrow. Like a majority of people, you open your to-do app of choice and neatly list down everything that you plan to do, and then plot some important meetings and reminders in your calendar app. 3 . Once you start Time Blocking, you’ll overcome this shortcoming. 4 The more specific you are about the task, the more focused you will be and thus, more productive. A properly organized time-blocked schedule is far more effective than any form of to-do list. 5 It not only makes your to-do list more manageable, but also it gives you more control over your day and increases your productivity. Each task or group of tasks in a day is a small-scale goal for you to achieve within that time-frame, so you are more determined to meet deadlines and reach your goals. It also improves your focus and helps get rid of procrastination (拖延症), as you are only working on one specific task at a time. A．I used to be in the same boat. B．I believe you have encountered questions like this C．The benefits of Time Blocking are considerable. D．You work your way down the priority list and everything goes as planned. E．You can regard it as a combination of a To-do list and a Calendar schedule. F．You’ll need to be very specific about what you’re planning to do in that time block. G．While it sounds logical, it makes you jump between different kinds of tasks without focus. （十四） 【来源】河北省河北名校联盟2023-2024学年高二下学期7月期末英语试题 How to Tolerate Those You Have a Personality Conflict With? Living or working with people who have very different personalities or beliefs from you can present challenges. 1 Here are some strategics to help you navigate these difficult interactions and maintain healthy relationships and a harmonious environment. 2 In many cases, a personality conflict arises because of expectations, differences of opinion, or some other underlying issues. Consider if you’ve had a bad experience with the person, or if you’re relying on rumors (谣言) or someone else’s conflict to inform your opinion on the person. Figuring out the roots may help you realize that your conflict is foolish. Get to know the person. Every person has their own perspectives that are formed based on their experiences. Consider where this person is coming from through his or her behaviors. 3 Acknowledging that his or her perspectives differ from yours can help you to give the person a chance. Identify the virtues in the person. Holding on to negative thoughts and attitudes about another person is draining (使心力交瘁的). 4 Learn to see the positive in any person. Even the worst person has good qualities. It might take some time to recognize them, but being able to see the positive traits in a person can help you to shift your relationship with him or her. Limit interactions with the person. If you genuinely find it challenging to put up with someone, minimize interactions with him or her. There are different ways to achieve it. For example, if you are at social settings, don’t sit near him or her or move if he or she is close to you. Nevertheless, sometimes you have to engage with the person either professionally or personally. 5 A．Let go of your expectations. B．You are ultimately the judge of your situation. C．Determine the source of your conflict with the person. D．When you constantly harbor them, they can become stronger. E．Should this occur, remember to keep the contact civil and polite. F．Relevant context information can help you accept the person as he or she is. G．However, learning to tolerate and manage these differences is mentally crucial. （十五） 【来源】辽宁省沈阳市郊联体2023-2024学年高二下学期7月期末英语试题 How to overcome travel anxiety Stress and anxiety around documents and procedures of travel is common.
