Procrastination, the habit of delaying ( 延 迟) tasks, is a common problem for middle school students. Faced with heavy homework every day, many students choose to play first and study later, which often leads to rushed, low-quality homework, late nights and even missed deadlines. This bad cycle not only influences their grades greatly but also brings them much mental stress, such as anxiety before exams and self-blame for not finishing tasks on time.
Jake, an eighth-grader, once struggled ( 挣 扎) badly with this bad habit. Every evening, he would spend hours watching short videos or playing mobile games instead of doing his math homework, which made his grades drop sharply and made his parents worried. His turning point came after he learned about and used the “Two-Minute Rule" . He told himself to work on a task for only two minutes at first, without thinking about finishing it all. Surprisingly, once he started, he usually continued working until he finished a part of the task. “It helps me beat the fear of starting and makes difficult tasks feel easier, "Jake said.
The“Two-Minute Rule" is a helpful psychological (心理的) strategy for fighting procrastination. It removes the biggest difficulty for students:the resistance (阻力)to beginning a hard task. It cuts down mental pressure greatly, making students feel more relaxed and confident, and it works much better than depending on willpower alone. It also turns a difficult task into an easy first step.
To help more students, experts also suggest task decomposition, like breaking a passage into small parts—for example, instead of thinking about finishing a whole essay, just focus on writing one first sentence or listing key points. Students can overcome procrastination and keep making progress by using the two ways together.
Procrastination brings academic trouble and mental stress to students. To solve it, 1. works well according to Jake's story. It helps students 2. and 3. into easy first steps. Experts also suggest using it with task decomposition. In short, 4. is the key to overcoming procrastination.

Passage 20
补全部分总词数不超过30词,不能照抄原文连续超过3个词。第1、4题3分,第2、3 题 2 分
Detective novels(推理小说)are popular among students. Many people believe that we read these stories to have fun. However, they are more than just simple entertainment(消遣). While they are full of suspense and exciting plots, they can also serve as a useful tool to train our minds and increase our intelligence.
To begin with, detective stories encourage logical( 逻 辑 的) thinking. In most mystery stories, we are given clues ( 线 索) , suspects, and hidden motives. To find the truth, we must connect different pieces of information and think step by step. In this way, solving a mystery is like dealing with a math problem. We learn to examine evidence, find cause-and-effect relationships, and avoid making quick judgments. Over time, this kind of reasoning practice can strengthen our logical ability.
Also, reading detective stories can help us stay focused and keep important facts in mind. Such stories often include many characters and complicated(复杂的) timelines. Missing a small detail may lead to misunderstanding the whole case. Therefore, we must pay close attention to every page and not forget what happened before. This habit of reading is helpful not only in math, but also in subjects like English, Chinese and history.
However, reading detective does not always increase our intelligence. If we only focus on the exciting ending and do not think in an active way, the book remains simple entertainment. When we put our hearts into every detail and try to find out truth by ourselves, they can truly work as a useful tool for our growth.

Listen, the ocean is calling for our help. Can you hear that?Many changes are happening in the ocean, and they all come from human activities.

This shows that all things in nature depend on each other, and what we do has an influence on all living things.
Another worrying change is happening to coral reefs(珊瑚礁). Many sea animals need clean and warm water to survive. But when the water gets too hot or dirty, the coral reefs turn white and die. As a result, the colorful underwater world is becoming pale and lifeless.

Our skin is like a coat that protects us. It has three layers( 层) and each layer helps keep us safe and healthy. If our skin gets burned, it can hurt a lot and even become serious. So everyone should learn about burns and how to help.
Many things can burn you, not only hot water. A big fire, the hot summer sun, steam(水蒸气) from your shower, or strong chemicals can all hurt your skin. Watch out and stay away from them.
Burns are divided into three groups by doctors. The first-degree burns are the lightest. Only the top layer of skin turns red and hurts, but you will feel better in a day or two days. The second-degree burns go deeper and affect both the first and the second layer. They hurt more and take longer to heal(愈合). The third-degree burns are the worst. All three layers of skin can be harmed and they always bring serious problems.
If you get burned, first of all, take off clothes carefully. Then, cool burns quickly under running water until you feel better. Next, dry the burned place gently and cover it with a dry and clean bandage. You should take medicine if necessary.
Though helpful, it's even more important to know something you mustn't do. For one thing, you can't use oil, eggs or ice on the burns. For another, don't pop blisters(水泡)with sharp things like knives or needles. If you do these things by accident, it may take a longer time for the burns to heal and even the burns will heal up with scars.
Burns can happen in seconds. Stay safe, stay smart, and let healthy skin protect you every day!
