You’ve just received your final grades and they’re not exactly what you were hoping for. To make matters worse, your best friends’ grades have got you green with envy. Try not to panic. We’ve put together some tips to help you manage.
Be happy for them.
First things first, make sure you start things off right by congratulating them for doing well this semester.

Face up to your feelings.
In saying that, being happy for your best friend doesn’t mean you should repress (压抑) your feelings. ___2___ Ask yourself where this jealousy is coming from and whether your best friend getting a better grade than you actually matters in the long run. Getting to the root of these feelings is an important first step to overcoming your jealousy.
Use it as motivation.
Feeling jealous doesn’t have to be a bad thing. The fact that you’re envious of your friend’s grades means you care about your studies.

___4___ Rather than worrying about your grades, try to focus on the knowledge and skills you learned throughout the semester and how they helped you improve as a person.
___5___
The fact that your best friend received a higher grade than you doesn’t mean you’re a failure. We need to stop using other people’s successes as a measure for our own self-worth. Life isn’t a competition. Focus on your own strengths, appreciate yourself more, and soon enough your jealousy will just melt away.

Packing is my superpower. I have traveled for a year with just a backpack and have done a week-long trip with a bag that fits under my airplane seat, more times than I can count. ____1____. So, do try to travel light and here are my top packing tips for traveling light.
____2____. The first time I went to Europe, I read “lay out everything you plan to take, then put away half.” Maybe that’s extreme, but practical.

Use packing cubes (立方体). Packing cubes are a game changer. ____3____, which makes things easier to find and makes re-packing much easier. Cubes come in different sizes. I use a standard rectangular (方形) one for most of my clothes and put shirts and underwear in a longer, skinnier cube.
Reduce empty spaces. ____4____. Roll up socks and put them in your unused pair of shoes, which go in their own packing cube or bag. Line either side of your suitcase with sleepwear or gym clothes. Use your packing cubes to create a puzzle that all fits together. Try different combinations to find what fits best.
Pack woolen clothing. Woolen clothing is super fine, breathable, warm and easy to pack. ____5____. You can wear a woolen clothing several times before it needs to be washed. That means you can pack a lot less. I pack a few woolen T-shirts and long sleeves, and lay them as needed.
A. Limit what you take
B. It doesn’t get dirty easily
C. Do not leave out necessary things
D. They make traveling light possible

【3题详解】
根据前文“Use packing cubes (立方体). Packing cubes are a game changer.(使用收纳立方体。收纳立方体是游戏规则的改变者)”可知,本段主要讲述收纳立方体的好处,以及后文“which makes things easier to find and makes re-packing much easier.(这样更容易找到东西,也更容易重新打包)”也是讲述收纳立方体具体的好处,所以E项“They help you organize your things into different parts(它们帮助你把你的东西组织成不同的部分)”可知,承接上文,为下文定语从句的主句,定语从句是对本句的解释。故选E项。
【4题详解】
根据前文“Reduce empty spaces.(减少空白空间)”可知,本段主要讲述减少行李箱的空白空间,所以G项“To make the most of the space in your bag, you shouldn’t have a lot of empty space(为了充分利用包里的空间,你不应该有太多的空空间)”符合本段主题,其中empty space为同词复现。故选G项。

Passage 1
(24-25高一上·河南南阳六校·期末)
Many travelers face a common problem: jet lag (时差反应). ____1____ It usually results from a difference in daylight hours, especially in a long distance travel. Here are some tips on how to deal with jet lag.
____2____ There are many ways to do so. One of them is very expensive. That is, paying a lot for a bigger seat and more space in an airplane can prevent sleep deprivation(缺乏). Most people can’t afford so much money to travel. But scheduling flights properly can help. For example, flying from Europe to North America during the day so that when passengers land, it is night and they can sleep. If you take the evening flight instead, you’ ll be woken up at midnight to be served breakfast and land an hour or two later. ____3____
Being in sunlight is important to setting your body clock again. That could mean either avoiding the morning sun or seeking it out, depending on where you started. Getting light in the morning will move your body clock forward. Sleeping for a short time during the day is okay, but scientists warn against sleeping for longer periods later in the day. ____4____
Business travelers might want to consider arriving a day or two ahead of any important meetings or events. Being jet-lagged can lead to unwise decisions and unpleasant feelings. Tourists might not need to think as clearly as business travelers. ____5____ Tourists are advised to get enough sleep before doing anything that might be dangerous or that requires a lot of attention, like driving.
A. Yet they should still be careful.
B. It is the feeling of tiredness people get when traveling.
C. Doing so might make it harder to sleep through the night.
D. If the light doesn’t work, there’s another way; drink coffee.
E. People who travel long distances often want to prevent jet lag.
F. In this case, both jet lag and sleep deprivation can seriously affect you.
G. Nobody wants to miss the fun because they are too tired to enjoy their vacation.
【答案】1. B 2. E 3. F 4. C 5. A
【解析】

【1题详解】
根据空前“Many travelers face a common problem: jet lag.(许多旅行者都面临一个共同的问题:时差反应。)”可知,前文提到“时差反应”,空格处应是对时差反应的解释。选项B“It is the feeling of tiredness people get when traveling.(它是人们在旅行时产生的疲劳感。)”对时差反应进行了定义,引出下文关于应对时差反应的建议。故选B。
【2题详解】
空处为段首句,为本段主题内容。根据下文“There are many ways to do so. One of them is very expensive. That is, paying a lot for a bigger seat and more space in an airplane can prevent sleep deprivation (缺乏). Most people can’t afford so much money to travel. But scheduling flights properly can help.(长途旅行的人通常都想预防时差反应。有很多方法可以做到这一点。其中一种方法成本很高,即花大价钱在飞机上购买更大的座位和更多的空间,这样可以避免睡眠不足。但大多数人负担不起这么昂贵的旅行花费。不过,合理安排航班时间会有所帮助。)”可知,下文提到的预防时差反应的方法,如购买飞机上更大空间的座位、合理安排航班等,可知此段是在讲预防时差反应。选项E“People who travel long distances often want to prevent jet lag.(长途旅行的人通常想预防时差反应。)”正是本段内容的概括,自然引出下文预防时差反应的具体做法。故选E。
【3题详解】
根据上文“For example, flying from Europe to North America during the day so that when passengers land, it is night and they can sleep. If you take the evening flight instead, you’ ll be woken up at midnight to be served breakfast and land an hour or two later.(例如,选择白天从欧洲飞往北美,这样乘客抵达时正好是晚上,就可以睡觉。如果你选择晚上的航班,你会在午夜被叫醒吃早餐,一两个小时后抵达目的地。)”可知,上文提到如果选择晚上的航班,会在午夜被叫醒吃早餐,一两个小时后降落。选项F“In this case, both jet lag and sleep deprivation can seriously affect you.(在这种情况下,时差反应和睡眠不足都会严重影响你。)”中的“this case”指代前文晚上航班的情况,进一步说明这种情况对人的不良影响,符合语境。故选F。
【4题详解】
根据上文“Sleeping for a short time during the day is okay, but scientists warn against sleeping for longer periods later in the day.(白天小睡一会儿是可以的,但科学家警告不要在白天晚些时候长时间睡觉。)”可知,上文提到白天小睡没问题,但科学家警告不要在白天晚些时候长时间睡觉。选项C“Doing so might make it harder to sleep through the night.(这样做可能会使晚上更难入睡。)”中的“Doing so”指代白天晚些时候长时间睡觉,解释了不能这样做的原因,符合逻辑。故选C。
【5题详解】
根据上文“Business travelers might want to consider arriving a day or two ahead of any important meetings or events. Being jet-lagged can lead to unwise decisions and unpleasant feelings. Tourists might not need to think as clearly as business travelers.(商务旅行者可能会考虑在任何重要会议或活动前提前一两天到达。时差反应可能导致不明智的决策和不愉快的情绪。游客可能不需要像商务旅行者那样思维清晰。)”可知,上文提到商务旅行者需要在重要会议或活动前提前一两天到达,因为时差反应可能导致不明智的决定和不愉快的感觉,又说游客可能不需要像商务旅行者那样清晰思考。选项A“Yet they should still be careful.(然而他们仍然应该小心。)”中的“yet”表示转折,说明游客虽不像商务旅行者对思考要求那么高,但仍要小心,引出下文游客在做危险或需集中注意力的事(如开车)前要保证充足睡眠的建议。故选A。

※Choose less-crowded (不拥挤的) places.

Thirdly, reacting angrily is a hard habit to break. But it is a habit, and habits can be broken. The trick is to avoid reacting when faced with a situation that usually causes anger. Anger is a negative reaction. You need to learn not to respond at all. ____4____
Fourthly, don’t take the easy way when you get angry. We all get tempted to throw something, hit something (or even someone), or scream when we are angry. ____5____ However, if you are to stop anger from becoming your master, you must learn control over your anger.
