But did you know that his journey to success was filled with challenges and difficulties? After serving in World War I, Disney worked at an art studio in Kansas City. But he dreamed of something bigger—he wanted to create his own cartoons. So, together with his brother Roy, they started their own cartoon company. Unfortunately, their company didn’t do well, and Disney found it hard to make ends meet. He had to cut costs wherever he could, even turning to eating cheap food just to get by. Disney didn’t lose hope. He kept working hard and finally created a character named Oswald the Rabbit. It seemed like things were turning around, but unfortunately, Disney lost both his team and the rights to Oswald the Rabbit, leaving him feeling lost. But Walt Disney was such a man who didn’t give up easily. On a train ride home from New York, where he had another difficulty, he came up with an idea—a character named Mickey Mouse. He believed Mickey could be something special, but when he tried to get money for his new cartoon, nobody offered support. Over 300 bankers laughed at his idea and turned him away. Disney kept pushing forward, and finally, he found someone who believed in him. With the support he needed, Disney’s cartoons took off, and the rest is history. Today, Disney’s company is worth over $200 billion. But his story teaches us about something more than just success. 53．What happened to Disney and his brother’s company at first?

I wanted to tell her about her illness. But she stopped me, “Sit down, doctor. Please sit down and listen to me.” After I sat down, she began to tell me something about her only son. He lived near her house, but he hadn’t visited her for five years. She believed that this was the main reason for her health problems. After hearing her story, I asked if there was anything else I could do for her. She said no and smiled. All she wanted me to do was to listen. Each story is different. Some are true; others are not.

It can handle this.” Those words made Arthur feel a little better. He closed his eyes and listened to the voice, which helped calm him down. When he opened his eyes, he saw the house move very skillfully between the asteroids. It almost seemed like it was dancing between them. The outside of the house changed shape, like it could see where the asteroids were going and move to avoid them. At one point, an asteroid came so close that Arthur could feel its heat. But just before it hit, the house moved quickly and missed it by just a little bit. Arthur held his breath, afraid to move, as the asteroid flew away into space. When the asteroids finally stopped coming, Arthur felt relieved (宽慰). He let out a big breath and leaned back against the wall. He was amazed by how the house had saved him and felt lucky to have had such an exciting experience. From then on, Arthur was more curious and braver about exploring space.

During that time, I helped her do some housework and buy some food. After the first week, I noticed that the food was eaten up (被吃光) very quickly. Then I began keeping an eye on my mum. To my surprise, I found that she would put some of the food into a paper bag and go out with it at about nine every morning. And finally, I decided to follow her. I saw her taking the food to the street children. She would also spend a lot of time talking and playing with them. One day, I talked to a neighbor and found out that my mum was well-known in the area. The children were very friendly with her and even thought of her as their own mother. Then it hit me why she wouldn’t want to tell me about it. Was she worried that I would stop buying food if I found out? When my mum got home, I gave her a big hug (拥抱). I told her she didn’t need to keep it a secret from me. And she told me something about the children. Some of them lived with an old lady in a small house. Others slept on the street. For years, she was helping the poor street children by giving them food. After she told me everything, I thought my mother was so selfless. She helped others in need.

World Sleep Day fell on March 17th this year. The topic was “sleep is important for health”. How can we have healthy sleep? Take a look at some tips. First, wake up naturally. Waking up to a ringing alarm is never fun. Studies showed that when you wake up because of a loud alarm, your breathing will go up from 16 to 24 breaths a minute. Your heart will have 10 more beats every minute. Your blood pressure (血压) will rise. “This is a very unhappy way to start the day,” a sleep scientist said. You’ll feel worse if you lie down again to get a few more minutes of sleep. This will make your body even sleepier. So what should we do to wake up naturally? Try to use an alarm with softer and lower sounds, or leave a crack (缝隙) in the curtains--the rising sun will wake you up. Second, sleep early, get up early. Some young people may go to bed late and get up late, such as sleeping from 2 a. m. to 10 a. m. They think as long as they have 8 hours of sleep, everything will be fine. But in fact, our bodies can tell time. They use light and temperature to do so. If we wake up too late, our bodies might feel confused between sleep and being awake. Our bodies don’t know the real time. That’s why sometimes we feel even more tired after oversleeping. So, it’s necessary for us to sleep early and get up early. 94．What’s the topic of World Sleep Day? A．Sleep is important for health. B．We should have healthy sleep. C．Try to wake up naturally. D．Sleep early, get up early. 95．According to Paragraph 2, if the alarm loudly wakes you up, what will happen? A．You’ll have a good day. B．Your breathing will go up. C．Your heart will beat more slowly. D．Your blood pressure will keep the same. 96．What does the underlined word “confused” mean? A．Unlucky. B．Unclear. C．Unhappy D．Unhealthy. 97．Which is the correct structure (结构) of the passage? A．B．C． D． 98．What is the passage mainly about? A．How. to wake up naturally. B．How to sleep early. C．How to sleep healthily D．How to keep healthy. 【答案】94．A 95．B 96．B 97．A 98．C 【导语】本文主要讲述了世界睡眠日的主题是“睡眠对健康很重要”，并给出了一些保持健康睡眠的建议。 94．细节理解题。根据“The topic was ‘sleep is important for health’.”可知，世界睡眠日的主题是“睡眠对健康很重要。”故选A。 95．细节理解题。根据“Studies showed that when you get ‘shocked’ by the alarm, your breathing will go up from 16 to 24 breaths a minute.”可知，你的呼吸会加快。故选B。 96．词句猜测题。根据“But in fact, our bodies can tell time. They use light and temperature to do so. If we wake up too late, our bodies might feel confused between sleep and being awake. Our bodies don’t know the real time. That’s why sometimes we feel even more tired after oversleeping.”可知，睡得太晚会让我们的身体无法区分睡眠和清醒。所以划线词意为“不清楚的”。故选B。 97．篇章结构题。根据第一段引出文章话题；第二、三、四段为第一个建议；第五段和第六段为第二个建议。故选A。 98．主旨大意题。本文主要讲述了世界睡眠日的主题是“睡眠对健康很重要”，并给出了一些保持健康睡眠的建议。故选C。 Passage22 （23-24八年级下·山东威海·期末）Today, many people look for fun online.

The UK has these government rules for homework: Years 7 and 8 (ages 11 to 13): 45 to 90 minutes per day; Year 9 (ages 14 to 15): 1 to 2 hours a day. Today, many homework tasks are done on a computer—for example, preparing PPT, using the Internet, or doing online tasks. So schools are usually open before and after normal hours. That way, students without computers or Internet at home can use the schools’ facilities (设施). Sometimes students are given “extended (拓展的) learning tasks”. That means they need to do more research and analysis, such as when working on a history or art project. But however big the task is, teachers will always give feedback (反馈). They help students find areas where they can improve. Some schools send students home with a homework diary. They encourage parents to check on their children’s progress. Other schools have a website for parents to track their children’s performance every day. Sadly, not every parent takes that much interest. In a 2011 survey of 1,000 students aged 11 to 18, over one in ten said that they did not have space at home to do homework. Almost 15 percent said that their family did not support them enough. 112．How long should UK students at the age of 11 to 13 do their homework per day? A．Less than 45 minutes. B．45 to 90 minutes. C．60 to 90 minutes. D．1 to 2 hours. 113．If students don’t have a computer at home, how can they finish their online homework? A．They can go to the teacher’s home after school. B．They don’t have to finish their homework. C．They can use the computers at school. D．They can ask their classmates for help. 114．What can we learn from the survey in 2011? A．UK parents took much interest in their children’s studies. B．Over 10 percent of the students had no space at home to do homework. C．Some parents did not know about the government rules. D．The homework diary works very well in the UK. 115．What might the writer agree according to the passage? A．Homework doesn’t play an important role in students’ learning. B．Families should support students’ studies. C．Extended learning tasks make students work for long hours. D．Parents should give homework feedback at once. 【答案】112．B 113．C 114．B 115．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了英国中学生家庭作业的情况，包括作业时间、完成方式、教师反馈以及家长参与等方面，同时也指出了部分家长对孩子学习支持不足的问题。 112．细节理解题。根据文章第一段“The UK has these government rules for homework: Years 7 and 8 (ages 11 to 13): 45 to 90 minutes per day”可知，英国11到13岁的学生每天应该做45到90分钟的作业。故选B。 113．细节理解题。根据文章第二段“So schools are usually open before and after normal hours.

Almost 15 percent said that their family did not support them enough”可知，作者通过调查数据指出了部分家长对孩子学习支持不足的问题，因此可以推断作者认为家庭应该支持学生的学习。故选B。 Passage26 （23-24八年级下·辽宁沈阳·期末）One animal walks slowly, but we like it very much. Sloths (树懒) live in the forests of South and Central America. They move so slowly that algae (水藻) grow on their bodies. They give the sloths a green colour that helps them to hide from predators in the forest. This green is a lucky “color” for sloths. That’s because most of them are too slow to run away from predators. And they are even slower on the ground than they are in the trees. Some walk only four meters every minute on the ground. Why do sloths move so slowly? It has a lot to do with their food. Sloths may all look the same to us. But there are in fact two main types of sloth. One has two toes and the other has three toes. The two-toed sloth seat both plants and animals. And the three-toed sloths only eat tree leaves and flower buds. Leaves and buds provide very little energy. Sloths save energy by not moving very often. They sleep and rest a lot. Some even sleep up to twenty hours a day! Sloths are rare (稀少的) now. We must protect them. Nobody can hunt them in South and Central America. 116．Where do the sloths live? A．In the forests. B．In the sea. C．Under the ground. D．0n the mountains. 117．What does the underlined word “predators” mean in English in Paragraph 1? A．Some animals which eat meat. B．Some plants which look like sloths.

It shows that what we see from the surface (表面) is only part of the story. There is a lot more going on under it. Recently, students from Chengdu Yucai Middle School used this model to understand different cultures. “Culture is like an iceberg, as some parts of it can be seen and some cannot,” explained, teacher Liu Yue. Things like clothes, buildings and music are the part “above the water”. And the “unseen” part is the way people think, such as how we see life and death. Inspired (启发) by this idea, 13-year-old Li Yixuan gave an example. “When we are praised by others, we’re likely to reply by saying ‘Not at all’ or ‘I’m not that great’” said Li. “This comes down to the humility (谦逊) that we Chinese have had since ancient times.” Sun Boyin thought beyond our own culture. In 202l, actor Mirai Moriyama danced with the white clothes while funeral (丧葬的) music played during the opening of the 2020 Tokyo Games. It led some to say it was “strange and uncomfortable” to watch. But it turned out to be “Japan’s special way to show mourning for those who have passed away”, Sun said. For some, this can be an enlightening class. “We can’t judge a culture only by what we see”, said Guo Yinyue. “If we want to fully understand a country’s culture. We need to think more about its invisible part so as to have better communication” said Shu Yuyang. 120．What is the unseen part of culture? A．The part of above the water. B．The way people think. C．The surface of the story. D．The under part of the iceberg. 121．If somebody says “You are excellent!”, how do Chinese usually reply? A．You are welcome. B．I am sorry to hear that. C．You are right, thanks. D．I’m not that great. 122．What is Mirai Moriyama? A．An actor. B．A student. C．A teacher. D．A player. 123．Which word is close to the underlined word “mourning”? A．Happiness. B．Sadness. C．Kindness. D．Darkness. 124．Which can be a proper title for the text? A．Different Countries, Different Cultures B．There are Two Sides of Each Problem C．The Iceberg Model and Different Cultures D．The Importance of Iceberg Culture 【答案】120．B 121．D 122．A 123．B 124．C 【导语】本文介绍了成都育才中学的学生用冰山模式来理解不同文化的例子，并通过具体事例阐明了文化表面和深层次的不同部分。 120．细节理解题。根据“And the ‘unseen’ part is the way people think, such as how we see life and death.”可知，文化中看不见的部分是人们思考的方式。故选B。 121．细节理解题。根据“we’re likely to reply by saying ‘Not at all’ or ‘I’m not that great’”可知，中国人在受到赞扬时通常会谦逊地回答“我没那么好”。故选D。 122．细节理解题。根据“In 202l, actor Mirai Moriyama danced with the white clothes while funeral (丧葬的) music played during the opening of the 2020 Tokyo Games.”可知，Mirai Moriyama是一名演员。故选A。 123．词句猜测题。根据上下文语境“Japan’s special way to show mourning for those who have passed away”可知，为那些去世的人展示哀悼的一种特殊方式，可推测出“mourning”为“哀悼、悲伤”的意思，与B选项“Sadness”意思匹配。故选B。 124．最佳标题题。通读全文，文章主要讲述成都育才中学的学生用冰山模式来理解不同文化的例子，因此选项C“冰山模式与不同文化”最为恰当。故选C。 Passage28 （23-24八年级下·浙江台州·期末）①Do you find it hard to say “no” when someone asks you for help? Do you feel sorry when you have to tell people that you really can’t help them? And do you often pretend (假装) to agree with people even though you think differently? If you answered “yes” to these questions, you may be a “people-pleaser”. ②Being friendly and helpful is a good thing. It helps you build friendships. However, trying to please (取悦) others without considering your own happiness can make you stressed. Luckily, there are some steps that you can take to stop being a people-pleaser. ③To start with, it’s important to know your limits (限度) and make “boundaries” (界限) in your life. Be clear about what you would like to do. You can also tell others that you are only available for a certain period of time. ④When someone asks you for help, tell him or her that you need some time to think about it. Use this time to ask yourself: Do you really want to do this? How much time will it take? By giving yourself some time to think, you’ll be better able to truly decide if it’s something you have the interest and time to do. ⑤People always try to please others because they have little confidence (自信) in themselves. They don’t consider their own need and interest. In this situation, you can try meaningful self-talk. Remind yourself that you have dreams, too. You don’t have to waste your time to do things that don’t bring you joy. ⑥Making a sudden change can be hard, so start by taking small steps. You may, for example, send a message to say “no”. Then, continue to say “no” face to face. Practice this in kinds of situations, such as talking to a salesperson or ordering at a restaurant. ⑦Stopping being a people-pleaser doesn’t mean you have to give up being kind and helpful altogether. You can still do good things, but on your own situations. 125．The writer starts the passage by ________.

But did you know that his journey to success was filled with challenges and difficulties? After serving in World War I, Disney worked at an art studio in Kansas City. But he dreamed of something bigger—he wanted to create his own cartoons. So, together with his brother Roy, they started their own cartoon company. Unfortunately, their company didn’t do well, and Disney found it hard to make ends meet. He had to cut costs wherever he could, even turning to eating cheap food just to get by. Disney didn’t lose hope. He kept working hard and finally created a character named Oswald the Rabbit. It seemed like things were turning around, but unfortunately, Disney lost both his team and the rights to Oswald the Rabbit, leaving him feeling lost. But Walt Disney was such a man who didn’t give up easily. On a train ride home from New York, where he had another difficulty, he came up with an idea—a character named Mickey Mouse. He believed Mickey could be something special, but when he tried to get money for his new cartoon, nobody offered support. Over 300 bankers laughed at his idea and turned him away. Disney kept pushing forward, and finally, he found someone who believed in him. With the support he needed, Disney’s cartoons took off, and the rest is history. Today, Disney’s company is worth over $200 billion. But his story teaches us about something more than just success. 53．What happened to Disney and his brother’s company at first?

Please sit down and listen to me.” After I sat down, she began to tell me something about her only son. He lived near her house, but he hadn’t visited her for five years. She believed that this was the main reason for her health problems. After hearing her story, I asked if there was anything else I could do for her. She said no and smiled. All she wanted me to do was to listen. Each story is different. Some are true; others are not. But it doesn’t matter. The most important thing is that her stories are heard. From the story of the old lady I learned that listening to someone’s stories does not cost a lot of money, but it is much better than expensive medicine. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 57．What does the underlined word “ward” mean in Chinese?

Passage18 （23-24八年级下·广东深圳·期末）As the house shook from the falling asteroids (小行星), Arthur’s heart beat very fast. The asteroids weren’t just rocks; they seemed to move around in space like they had a plan, like they were looking for something. The strange light from the asteroids made the house seem even more scary. Suddenly, the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy said in a calm voice, “Trust the house, Arthur. It can handle this.” Those words made Arthur feel a little better. He closed his eyes and listened to the voice, which helped calm him down. When he opened his eyes, he saw the house move very skillfully between the asteroids. It almost seemed like it was dancing between them. The outside of the house changed shape, like it could see where the asteroids were going and move to avoid them. At one point, an asteroid came so close that Arthur could feel its heat. But just before it hit, the house moved quickly and missed it by just a little bit. Arthur held his breath, afraid to move, as the asteroid flew away into space. When the asteroids finally stopped coming, Arthur felt relieved (宽慰). He let out a big breath and leaned back against the wall. He was amazed by how the house had saved him and felt lucky to have had such an exciting experience. From then on, Arthur was more curious and braver about exploring space. He knew there were many amazing things out there, but also some dangers. But he was ready to face them, knowing that he had the tools and courage to do so.

Passage20 （23-24八年级下·云南德宏·期末）I worked in a junior high school near my mother’s house last year, and I stayed with her for a month. During that time, I helped her do some housework and buy some food. After the first week, I noticed that the food was eaten up (被吃光) very quickly. Then I began keeping an eye on my mum. To my surprise, I found that she would put some of the food into a paper bag and go out with it at about nine every morning. And finally, I decided to follow her. I saw her taking the food to the street children. She would also spend a lot of time talking and playing with them. One day, I talked to a neighbor and found out that my mum was well-known in the area. The children were very friendly with her and even thought of her as their own mother.

The topic was “sleep is important for health”. How can we have healthy sleep? Take a look at some tips. First, wake up naturally. Waking up to a ringing alarm is never fun. Studies showed that when you wake up because of a loud alarm, your breathing will go up from 16 to 24 breaths a minute. Your heart will have 10 more beats every minute. Your blood pressure (血压) will rise. “This is a very unhappy way to start the day,” a sleep scientist said. You’ll feel worse if you lie down again to get a few more minutes of sleep. This will make your body even sleepier. So what should we do to wake up naturally? Try to use an alarm with softer and lower sounds, or leave a crack (缝隙) in the curtains--the rising sun will wake you up. Second, sleep early, get up early. Some young people may go to bed late and get up late, such as sleeping from 2 a. m. to 10 a. m. They think as long as they have 8 hours of sleep, everything will be fine. But in fact, our bodies can tell time. They use light and temperature to do so. If we wake up too late, our bodies might feel confused between sleep and being awake. Our bodies don’t know the real time. That’s why sometimes we feel even more tired after oversleeping. So, it’s necessary for us to sleep early and get up early. 94．What’s the topic of World Sleep Day? A．Sleep is important for health. B．We should have healthy sleep. C．Try to wake up naturally. D．Sleep early, get up early. 95．According to Paragraph 2, if the alarm loudly wakes you up, what will happen? A．You’ll have a good day. B．Your breathing will go up. C．Your heart will beat more slowly. D．Your blood pressure will keep the same. 96．What does the underlined word “confused” mean? A．Unlucky. B．Unclear. C．Unhappy D．Unhealthy. 97．Which is the correct structure (结构) of the passage? A．B．C． D． 98．What is the passage mainly about? A．How. to wake up naturally. B．How to sleep early. C．How to sleep healthily D．How to keep healthy. Passage22 （23-24八年级下·山东威海·期末）Today, many people look for fun online. Watching livestreaming (网络直播) shows has become part of their lives. At the same time, traditional culture has found a bigger stage (舞台) online. Many traditional artists are starting to livestream like Douyin and Bilibili. Some of them sing Beijing Opera, some make paper cutting, while others perform Chinese classical music.

On March 26th, 2020, Bilibili livestreamed a huafu show on the third China Huafu Day. Performers showed clothes in traditional Chinese styles (风格), including those from Wei, Tang and Ming dynasties.

If they blow out all the candles in one go, the wish will come true. Birthday song If there’s one thing that lets someone know it’s your birthday, it’s the Happy Birthday Song.

Passage25 （23-24八年级下·浙江金华·期末）Few students like it, but homework is an important part of middle school life in the UK. The UK has these government rules for homework: Years 7 and 8 (ages 11 to 13): 45 to 90 minutes per day; Year 9 (ages 14 to 15): 1 to 2 hours a day. Today, many homework tasks are done on a computer—for example, preparing PPT, using the Internet, or doing online tasks. So schools are usually open before and after normal hours. That way, students without computers or Internet at home can use the schools’ facilities (设施). Sometimes students are given “extended (拓展的) learning tasks”. That means they need to do more research and analysis, such as when working on a history or art project. But however big the task is, teachers will always give feedback (反馈). They help students find areas where they can improve. Some schools send students home with a homework diary. They encourage parents to check on their children’s progress. Other schools have a website for parents to track their children’s performance every day. Sadly, not every parent takes that much interest. In a 2011 survey of 1,000 students aged 11 to 18, over one in ten said that they did not have space at home to do homework. Almost 15 percent said that their family did not support them enough. 112．How long should UK students at the age of 11 to 13 do their homework per day? A．Less than 45 minutes. B．45 to 90 minutes.

B．They don’t have to finish their homework. C．They can use the computers at school. D．They can ask their classmates for help. 114．What can we learn from the survey in 2011? A．UK parents took much interest in their children’s studies. B．Over 10 percent of the students had no space at home to do homework. C．Some parents did not know about the government rules. D．The homework diary works very well in the UK. 115．What might the writer agree according to the passage? A．Homework doesn’t play an important role in students’ learning. B．Families should support students’ studies. C．Extended learning tasks make students work for long hours. D．Parents should give homework feedback at once. Passage26 （23-24八年级下·辽宁沈阳·期末）One animal walks slowly, but we like it very much. Sloths (树懒) live in the forests of South and Central America. They move so slowly that algae (水藻) grow on their bodies. They give the sloths a green colour that helps them to hide from predators in the forest. This green is a lucky “color” for sloths. That’s because most of them are too slow to run away from predators. And they are even slower on the ground than they are in the trees. Some walk only four meters every minute on the ground. Why do sloths move so slowly? It has a lot to do with their food. Sloths may all look the same to us. But there are in fact two main types of sloth. One has two toes and the other has three toes. The two-toed sloth seat both plants and animals. And the three-toed sloths only eat tree leaves and flower buds. Leaves and buds provide very little energy. Sloths save energy by not moving very often. They sleep and rest a lot. Some even sleep up to twenty hours a day! Sloths are rare (稀少的) now. We must protect them. Nobody can hunt them in South and Central America. 116．Where do the sloths live? A．In the forests. B．In the sea. C．Under the ground. D．0n the mountains. 117．What does the underlined word “predators” mean in English in Paragraph 1? A．Some animals which eat meat. B．Some plants which look like sloths.

It shows that what we see from the surface (表面) is only part of the story. There is a lot more going on under it. Recently, students from Chengdu Yucai Middle School used this model to understand different cultures. “Culture is like an iceberg, as some parts of it can be seen and some cannot,” explained, teacher Liu Yue. Things like clothes, buildings and music are the part “above the water”. And the “unseen” part is the way people think, such as how we see life and death. Inspired (启发) by this idea, 13-year-old Li Yixuan gave an example. “When we are praised by others, we’re likely to reply by saying ‘Not at all’ or ‘I’m not that great’” said Li. “This comes down to the humility (谦逊) that we Chinese have had since ancient times.” Sun Boyin thought beyond our own culture. In 202l, actor Mirai Moriyama danced with the white clothes while funeral (丧葬的) music played during the opening of the 2020 Tokyo Games. It led some to say it was “strange and uncomfortable” to watch. But it turned out to be “Japan’s special way to show mourning for those who have passed away”, Sun said. For some, this can be an enlightening class. “We can’t judge a culture only by what we see”, said Guo Yinyue. “If we want to fully understand a country’s culture. We need to think more about its invisible part so as to have better communication” said Shu Yuyang. 120．What is the unseen part of culture? A．The part of above the water. B．The way people think. C．The surface of the story. D．The under part of the iceberg. 121．If somebody says “You are excellent!”, how do Chinese usually reply? A．You are welcome. B．I am sorry to hear that. C．You are right, thanks. D．I’m not that great. 122．What is Mirai Moriyama? A．An actor. B．A student. C．A teacher. D．A player. 123．Which word is close to the underlined word “mourning”? A．Happiness. B．Sadness. C．Kindness. D．Darkness. 124．Which can be a proper title for the text? A．Different Countries, Different Cultures B．There are Two Sides of Each Problem C．The Iceberg Model and Different Cultures D．The Importance of Iceberg Culture Passage28 （23-24八年级下·浙江台州·期末）①Do you find it hard to say “no” when someone asks you for help? Do you feel sorry when you have to tell people that you really can’t help them? And do you often pretend (假装) to agree with people even though you think differently? If you answered “yes” to these questions, you may be a “people-pleaser”. ②Being friendly and helpful is a good thing. It helps you build friendships. However, trying to please (取悦) others without considering your own happiness can make you stressed. Luckily, there are some steps that you can take to stop being a people-pleaser. ③To start with, it’s important to know your limits (限度) and make “boundaries” (界限) in your life. Be clear about what you would like to do. You can also tell others that you are only available for a certain period of time. ④When someone asks you for help, tell him or her that you need some time to think about it. Use this time to ask yourself: Do you really want to do this? How much time will it take? By giving yourself some time to think, you’ll be better able to truly decide if it’s something you have the interest and time to do. ⑤People always try to please others because they have little confidence (自信) in themselves. They don’t consider their own need and interest. In this situation, you can try meaningful self-talk. Remind yourself that you have dreams, too. You don’t have to waste your time to do things that don’t bring you joy. ⑥Making a sudden change can be hard, so start by taking small steps. You may, for example, send a message to say “no”. Then, continue to say “no” face to face. Practice this in kinds of situations, such as talking to a salesperson or ordering at a restaurant. ⑦Stopping being a people-pleaser doesn’t mean you have to give up being kind and helpful altogether. You can still do good things, but on your own situations. 125．The writer starts the passage by ________.
