By seeing changes in nature, you can welcome change in your own life too. What is change Ekta Hattangady is a doctor. She helps people pay attention to (关注) their thoughts and feelings. “Change means that things are becoming something else,” she says. “One example of change is losing baby teeth and getting new teeth as you grow up. Another example of change is the life of a flower. At first it was a seed that received water and sunlight, and grew into a plant with a stem, leaves and flowers. In time the flower will fade—that’s how everything in life changes. Change is a natural part of life.” Coping when change feels hard Humans are “beings of habit” and learn to do the same things over and over, like eating breakfast at a certain time and getting ready for school by keeping the same patterns (模式) every morning. Sometimes things happen and we have to change our patterns—like moving to a new home or changing schools. These changes can feel uncomfortable and it’s natural to feel sad when things happen that you might not want. However, noticing those feelings of worry, sadness or fear can help you to welcome change and not worry about it more than you need to. ________ When you experience change, try to notice and pay attention to how you feel in your body and also your thoughts. “Sometimes you might cry; sometimes you might feel sad or lonely,” says Hattangady. Being aware of and accepting (察觉并接纳) what’s happening in your body and mind can help you manage (应对) and be less sad. Talk to someone you trust—your friends, your teachers or your parents—about what is going on and how you feel. It can be helpful. Change can be wonderful. Who knows? You may learn new things about yourself, develop skills and make new friends. It also means that sad feelings don’t last. The sun will always rise, flowers will return and there will be new adventures ahead. 24. The writer talks about “the life of a flower” to tell us that ________. A. flowers grow fast in summer B. change is a natural part of life C. people feel sad when flowers die 25.What does the underlined word “Coping” probably mean? A. Thinking. B.Waiting. C.Managing. 26.Which of the following would be the best heading for the last paragraph? A. Be kind to yourself. B. Try to make new friends. C. Notice change around you. 27.What is the writer’s purpose of writing this passage? A. To tell us to welcome change with an open heart. B. To ask us to keep our patterns when change comes. C. To show us what sadness means in the face of change. C 篇 As the weather gets warmer, there are few things that are better to do than travel. But traveling might not be that fun for everyone, especially for those who have motion sickness (晕动 症). Motion sickness is also called travel sickness. It is a common experience for many people. Depending on how you travel, it can be called carsickness or seasickness. People with motion sickness feel very uncomfortable while they are in motion. They feel sick and dizzy, like the room around them won’t stop spinning (旋转). It is generally believed that motion sickness happens when your senses become confused (混 乱的) with each other. We use different parts of our body to sense movement. Our eyes tell us if we are moving. The inner ears have a special liquid that helps us sense our direction and balance (平衡). Our muscles (肌肉) react to movement. When you move around, these body parts work well together. But when you are in a car or an airplane, they get confused. Your inner ear signals that you’re moving, but your eyes say you’re sitting still because you can’t see that you’re moving. This mismatch gives us motion sickness. About one in three people get motion sickness. Women and children aged two to twelve are most at risk. Some people may even experience motion sickness in certain situations, such as reading in motion, playing video games and watching 3D movies. But some people are less sensitive to motion sickness. This may be because they have certain genes (基因) that stop mismatching senses. Although there are many ways to deal with (处理) motion sickness, I believe that the key is to simply try and adapt (适应) to it. For example, some astronauts do special exercises that give them mild (轻微的) motion sickness. After a week or two, the astronauts become used to it and don’t feel uncomfortable anymore. 28.When motion sickness happens to you, you ________. A. feel uncomfortable, sick and dizzy B. become confused with your senses C. see room around you stop spinning D. know all your body parts work well 29.What does the writer want to tell us in Paragraph 3? A. How our body senses move. B. How motion sickness happens. C. How body parts work together. D. How motion sickness confuses us. 30.What do you know about motion sickness? A. Everyone with motion sickness hates travelling. B.Most women and children have motion sickness. C. Reading in a car may cause our motion sickness. D.Mismatching senses brings us motion sickness. 31. The writer probably agrees that ________. A. it’s difficult to deal with motion sickness B.most astronauts have no motion sickness C. it’s possible to adapt to motion sickness D.mild motion sickness is good for health D 篇 In 2013, Chinese President Xi Jinping offered to build a Silk Road Economic Belt (经济带) and a 21st Century Maritime (海上 ) Silk Road, which became known as the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI, “一带一路”倡议).

Do you ever find yourself needing more days off for more rest after traveling? If yes, then sleep tourism may be your best choice for your next trip. Sleep tourism became popular in 2020. It is a new kind of travel which focuses on rest and relaxation while traveling. In sleep tourism, tourists spend their time visiting places, experiencing new cultures and tasting new types of food, and at the same time naturally catching up on much-needed sleep. More and more people are interested in sleep tourism these years. Studies show people like sleep tourism because health and happiness are more important for them. In this busy world, it is difficult for people to find time for themselves, and often the first thing to lose is sleep. Sleep tourism gives people a chance to break from the stress and the busy everyday life. Besides, some people want to keep their sleep routine during traveling. Breaking the routine can affect sleep. For example, going to bed later can make it hard to fall asleep. As a result, people may feel less rested the next morning. Travel companies and hotels are working together to make people travel well and sleep well. Companies are planning relaxing activities such as yoga, walking as well as meditation (冥想). Hotels are trying to better their environment by providing comfortable bedding, dreamy music, smart lighting, and so on. When tourists come back from the sleep tourism, they may find themselves well-rested and relaxed. 50.When did sleep tourism become popular? ______________________________________ 51.Why do people like sleep tourism? ______________________________________ 52.
