Keep Skin Cancer At Bay
“You have skin cancer.” No one wants to hear such scary words. And unfortunately, the number of those who hear them just keeps rising. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates global cancer rates will increase 77 percent by 2050. ____16____ By adopting a few healthy habits and making smart choices, people can reduce their risk of developing skin cancer.
One of the most important ways is to limit your exposure to UV rays from the sun. UV rays are strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., so it’s best to stay indoors or in the shade during these hours. If you have to be in the sun, wear protective clothing. ____17____ These measures can shelter you from harmful radiation and prevent sunburn, which is a major risk factor for skin cancer.
____18____ Choose a type with a sun protection factor of at least 30. It should protect against both kinds of UV rays that cause damage to your skin. Apply it to all exposed skin, including your face, neck, ears and hands, even on cloudy days. Put it on every two hours or more often if you’re swimming or sweating.
Regular skin checks are also key in the prevention of skin cancer. It is vital to examine your skin once a month for spots, moles (痣) or growths. Be on the lookout for changes in size, shape or color. Watch for moles that have one side that is different from the other. ____19____ If a mole is bigger than a pencil eraser or its appearance is changing, consult a skin doctor immediately.
Healthy skin is beautiful. ____20____
A. Look at the size, too.
B. Beauty is only skin deep.
C. Sunglasses that block UV rays are also a must.
D. Protecting it is one of the best things you can do.
E. You are bound to be free from any skin problems mentioned.
F. Using sunscreen is another important way to protect your skin.
G. But the good news is that it’s also one of the easiest to prevent.
【答案】16. G 17. C 18. F 19. A 20. D

【16题详解】
前文““You have skin cancer.” No one wants to hear such scary words. And unfortunately, the number of those who hear them just keeps rising. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates global cancer rates will increase 77 percent by 2050. (“你得了皮肤癌。”没人想听这么可怕的话。不幸的是,听到它们的人越来越多。世界卫生组织(WHO)估计,到2050年,全球癌症发病率将上升77%。)”提到皮肤癌发病率上升的严峻现实,后文“By adopting a few healthy habits and making smart choices, people can reduce their risk of developing skin cancer. (通过养成一些健康的习惯并做出明智的选择,人们可以降低患皮肤癌的风险。)”转向通过健康习惯降低风险,此处需一个转折句衔接悲观事实与积极措施,因此G项“But the good news is that it’s also one of the easiest to prevent. (但好消息是,它也是最容易预防的(癌症)之一。)”符合语境,和前文构成转折,引出后文的措施,其中的it指代前文的skin cancer。故选G。
【17题详解】
前文“If you have to be in the sun, wear protective clothing. (如果你必须在阳光下,穿上防护服。)”提到防护紫外线的衣物,后文“These measures can shelter you from harmful radiation and prevent sunburn, which is a major risk factor for skin cancer. (这些措施可以保护你免受有害辐射,防止晒伤,而晒伤是皮肤癌的主要危险因素。)”解释防护措施的用处,此处应补充其他防护措施,因此C项“Sunglasses that block UV rays are also a must. (能阻挡紫外线的太阳镜也是必需品。)”符合语境,和前文构成递进关系。故选C。
【18题详解】
后文“Choose a type with a sun protection factor of at least 30. It should protect against both kinds of UV rays that cause damage to your skin. Apply it to all exposed skin, including your face, neck, ears and hands, even on cloudy days. Put it on every two hours or more often if you’re swimming or sweating. (选择防晒系数至少为30的防晒霜。它可以防止两种对皮肤造成伤害的紫外线。涂抹在所有暴露在外的皮肤上,包括你的脸、脖子、耳朵和手,即使是在阴天。每两小时涂抹一次,如果在游泳或出汗,则应更频繁涂抹。)”详细描述防晒霜的选择和使用方法,此处是总起句,需引入防晒霜这一新措施,因此F项“Using sunscreen is another important way to protect your skin. (使用防晒霜是保护皮肤的另一种重要方式。)”符合语境,契合后文内容。故选F。
【19题详解】
前文“Watch for moles that have one side that is different from the other. (注意那些一边和另一边不一样的痣。)”提醒注意不对称的痣,后文“If a mole is bigger than a pencil eraser or its appearance is changing, consult a skin doctor immediately. (如果痣比铅笔橡皮擦还大,或者痣的外观正在发生变化,请立即咨询皮肤医生。)”指出需及时咨询医生的是过大、外观有变化的痣,此处应补充注意痣的大小,因此A项“Look at the size, too. (也要注意大小。)”符合语境,与前文并列关系。故选A。
【20题详解】
前文“Healthy skin is beautiful. (健康的皮肤是美丽的。)”总结健康皮肤的状态,此处宜进一步强调保护皮肤的重要性,因此D项“Protecting it is one of the best things you can do. (保护它是你能做的最好的事情之一。)”符合语境,承接前文,和前文存在因果关系,其中的it指代前文的Healthy skin。故选D。

第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Ambivalence(矛盾心理) refers to the frustrating and all-too-common experience of being“on the fence” about making some change. For example, you must have said,“I should start exercising, but it's tough to find the time.” 36 Yet how often do we view ambivalence as some sort of interloper(干涉者), an unwanted and unexpected roadblock on the path to a better life?
37 When we lack understanding about the uncertainty, our ability to effectively resolve it becomes limited. Furthermore, without a clear understanding of the underlying reasons, we risk employing harmful labels that may conveniently but inaccurately explain the reason for our inaction and that of others.“I must be lazy.”“She has no self-discipline.”
A helpful standpoint for us to better understand the roots of indecisiveness comes from a research-based therapy approach called motivational interviewing. 38 You can also make a difference via this method, no matter whether you decide to eat less junk food, lose weight, or reduce screen time.
From a motivational interviewing viewpoint, the root of ambivalence is related to the extent of importance and confidence in making a change. If we don't feel strongly that it's important to make a change or we lack confidence in being able to take the necessary steps,chances are very high that we will waver(动摇) on moving forward. 39
The widespread presence of ambivalence in the face of change is commonly present in human life. It's true for us, and it's true for others, including our family members and friends, and those we encounter and serve in our professional lives. 40 By doing this, we can more clearly see and skillfully address the root causes of ambivalence.
A. And the opposite of that is also true.
B. It' ll be problematic if we misinterpret ambivalence.
C. Thus, we' ll feel highly motivated to make the change.
D. Think about a kind of behavior you' ve been hesitant to change.
E. It's been successfully applied to many cases of behavioral change.
F. Such internal swinging is common when it comes to behavioral change.
G. Acknowledging this fact is essential for overcoming harmful judgments and labels.
【答案】
36. F。前文举了“想锻炼但没时间”的例子,这是一种内心摇摆的状态。F选项“Such internal swinging is commonwhen it comes to behavioral change.(这种内心摇摆在行为改变时很常见。)”,正好承接上文的例子,对“矛盾心理”的普遍性进行总结,逻辑顺畅。
37. B。本段核心是“误解矛盾心理会带来问题”。后文提到“缺乏对不确定性的理解,解决问题的能力就会受限”,以及“用有害标签解释不作为”。B选项“It' ll be problematic if we misinterpret ambivalence.(如果我们误解矛盾心理,就会有问题。)”,作为本段总起句,引出下文的具体问题,逻辑清晰。
38. E。前文介绍了“动机访谈(motivational interviewing)”这一疗法。E选项“It's been successfully applied to manycases of behavioral change.(它已成功应用于许多行为改变案例。)”,是对该疗法有效性的佐证,与后文“你也可以通过这个方法做出改变”形成呼应。
39. A。前文说“如果我们不觉得改变重要或缺乏信心,就很容易动摇”。A选项“And the opposite of that is also true.(反之亦然。)”,暗示“如果我们觉得改变很重要且充满信心,就不容易动摇”,使论证更完整,符合逻辑。
40. G。前文提到“矛盾心理在生活中很普遍,对自己、他人都是如此”。G选项“Acknowledging this fact is essential forovercoming harmful judgments and labels.(承认这一事实对于克服有害的评判和标签至关重要。)”,既承接了“thisfact”指代的普遍性,又呼应了前文提到的“harmful labels”,同时引出后文“通过这样做,我们能更清楚地看到并熟练地解决矛盾心理的根源”。

第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Everyone sends texts. It’s simple — one message goes out, and another comes back. ____16____ They smile, wink (眨眼) and cry. Without much notice, emojis (表情符号) change how messages feel.
Researchers often ignore these tiny images. But Eun Huh from the University of Texas at Austin and her team decided to take a closer look. ____17____
Think about your last text. Did it have an emoji? Most likely it did. Nearly everyone uses them. But emojis aren’t just decorations. They work like tiny signals of emotion and bring life to plain words. ____18____ The researchers looked at this effect closely. Their analysis showed something surprising. People feel more connected to those who use emojis. It’s not about picking the right emoji. The magic lies in using them at all.
Why do emojis work so well? They make conversations feel softer and friendlier. They can help to reduce misunderstandings since tone gets difficult to express over text. They also act like little touches of warmth. ____19____ Most importantly, they can do what words sometimes can’t: show that you care.
____20____ This one focused on imagined situations. People weren’t texting real friends during the test. The researchers suggest testing real-time chats next. The experts pointed out that this study included mostly U.S.-based participants. Emoji meanings can shift across cultures. What works in one place might not in another. And there’s one more question waiting. What happens when emojis conflict with words? Like a smiley face paired with sad news. Future studies might explore those mixed signals.
A. Somewhere in between, emojis appear.
B. That sense of being heard led to stronger friendships.
C. Every study has limitations and this one is no exception.
D. They called them more responsive and the chats felt warmer.
E. A simple heart can completely change the tone of a message.

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Sustainable packaging has become a buzzword in recent years. From paper-based materials to biodegradable alternatives, the shift away from traditional plastics appears to be a step in the right direction. 36
One of the most popular alternatives to plastics is paper-based packaging. The logic appears sound. 37 However, the environmental cost of paper production is often overlooked. Compared to plastic, producing paper packaging requires significantly more energy and water. A study highlighted that paper bags require at least four times more energy to manufacture than plastic bags.
38 While many brands claim to use responsibly sourced or recycled paper, the global demand for paper packaging still places immense pressure on forests. This pressure will cause too much tree cutting and habitat loss, harming wildlife. And the loss of trees will reduce the planet’s ability to absorb carbon dioxide.
Moreover, paper-based packaging is usually heavier than plastic packaging. 39 For instance, trucks carrying paper packages use more fuel, increasing emissions. This extra weight also makes logistics (物流) more challenging.
Therefore, the full life cycle of paper packaging shows its eco-benefits aren’t as clear as they seem. 40 This means focusing on reducing waste first, making better waste management systems, and using sustainable materials in the best way. Only by doing all these things together can we cut down on environmental harm.
A. This can make transportation less efficient.
B. However, beneath the surface lies a more complex reality.
C. Therefore, many brands now use paper-based packaging.
D. Its production requires four times the energy of plastic bags.
E. The destruction of forests linked to the paper industry is another concern.
F. To achieve sustainable packaging completely, we need a well-rounded approach.
G. Paper is biodegradable, recyclable, and can be obtained from renewable resources.
【答案】36. B 37. G 38. E 39. A 40. F
【36题详解】根据空前的“Sustainable packaging has become a buzzword in recent years. From paper- based materials to biodegradable alternatives, the shift away from traditional plastics appears to be a step in the right direction. (可持续包装近年来已成为一个热门词汇。从纸质材料到可生物降解的替代品,摒弃传统塑料的转变似乎是朝着正确方向迈出的一步)”以及后文对纸质包装环保弊端的阐述可知,此空需要起到转折作用,引出看似环保的纸质包装背后存在的复杂问题。B选项“However, beneath the surface lies a more complex reality. (然而,表象之下隐藏着一个更为复杂的现实)”中的however表转折,承接前文“正确方向”的观点,又引出后文的详细论述,符合语境。故选B项。
【37题详解】根据空前的“One of the most popular alternatives to plastics is paper-based packaging. The logic appears sound. (纸质包装是最受欢迎的塑料替代品之一。其合理性看似毋庸置疑)”以及空后的“However, the environmental cost of paper production is often overlooked. (然而,纸张生产的环境成本往往被忽视)”可知,此空需要说明纸质包装看似合理的原因,即其自身存在环境成本。G选项“Paper is biodegradable, recyclable, and can be obtained from renewable resources. (纸张可生物降解、可回收,且可从可再生资源中获取)”阐述了纸质包装的优点,契合前文“logic appears sound”的表述,同时为后文的转折做铺垫,符合语境。故选G项。
【38题详解】根据空后的“While many brands claim to use responsibly sourced or recycled paper, the global demand for paper packaging still places immense pressure on forests. This pressure will cause too much tree cutting and habitat loss, harming wildlife. (尽管许多品牌声称使用负责任采购或回收的纸张,但全球对纸质包装的需求仍给森林带来巨大压力。这种压力会导致大量树木被砍伐、栖息地丧失,进而危害野生生物)”可知,此空应是本段的主题句,点明纸质包装带来的森林相关问题。E选项“The destruction of forests linked to the paper industry is another concern. (与造纸业相关的森林破坏是另一个值得关注的问题)”概括了本段的核心内容,引出后文的详细说明,符合语境。故选E项。
【39题详解】根据空前的“Moreover, paper-based packaging is usually heavier than plastic packaging. (此外,纸质包装通常比塑料包装更重)”以及空后的“For instance, trucks carrying paper packages use more fuel, increasing emissions. (例如,运输纸质包装的卡车会消耗更多燃料,增加排放量)”可知,此空需要说明纸质包装更重所带来的具体负面影响。A选项“This can make transportation less efficient. (这会降低运输的效率)”中的this指代前文“纸质包装更重”这一特点,且后文的例子正是对运输效率降低的具体阐释,符合语境。故选A项。
【40题详解】根据空前的“Therefore, the full life cycle of paper packaging shows its eco-benefits aren’t as clear as they seem. (因此,从全生命周期来看,纸质包装的生态效益并不像表面看起来的那样明确)”以及空后的“This means focusing on reducing waste first, making better waste management systems, and using sustainable materials in the best way. (这意味着要首先注重减少浪费,完善废物管理系统,并以最佳方式使用可持续材料)”可知,此空需要提出实现可持续包装的正确方法。F选项“To achieve sustainable packaging completely, we need a well-rounded approach. (要完全实现可持续包装,我们需要一种全面的方法)”中的a well-rounded approach对应后文的具体措施,起到承上启下的作用,符合语境。故选F项。

No More Chicken Wings, Please!
Could I eat another bite? I glanced at my car seat, piled high with takeaway chicken wings. Six orders in one afternoon had pushed me to my limit. Feeling overly full was nothing new for a food critic, but I’d finally had enough of this stressful, unhealthy job.
Six years earlier, I’d been thrilled to land this job. I drove hundreds of miles every week, eating out four to five times a day to hunt for hidden restaurants, unique dishes and untold stories. ____16____ “Wait! You get paid to eat? That’s my dream job,” they’d say.
Outwardly it seemed like a dream job, but it was far from enjoyable. I never complained about the pressure, rushing from meal to meal and deadline to deadline, constantly putting off regular medical check-ups. ____17____ “I’d like this number lower,” my doctor said, pointing at my high cholesterol. “I can’t control my diet for work,” I replied.
Many food writers only take one bite of each dish, but I always finished the meals I loved. My weight climbed steadily, exercise did little to help, and long-term overeating did lasting harm to my body. One day, my doctor warned me seriously, “You’re pre-diabetic.” ____18____ I tried to process the shocking news while eating fish tacos nearby, still unable to turn down the food in front of me. I stayed in the job for another year, but I gradually began to dream of simple home cooking instead of endless restaurant meals. ____19____
“I’m leaving the newspaper,” I told my boss. “Are you sure?” she asked in surprise. Yes, I was completely certain. ____20____ It took months to control my oversized appetite and break bad eating habits, but I was determined to regain my health. Nine months later, I’ve lost the extra weight and my blood sugar is back to normal. Less stress has even made me look younger. “You look so relaxed,” friends said.
A. Tight deadlines took up all my personal time.
B. A huge weight was instantly lifted off my mind.
C. I decided to quit for my health before it was too late.
D. People envied my job the moment they heard about it.
E. My blood test results were alarming when I saw a doctor.
F. The tiring work and overeating ruined my health gradually.
G. OK, so my blood sugar had become a worrying problem too.
【答案】16. D 17. E 18. G 19. C 20. B

You don’t need to be an astronomer with a giant telescope to enjoy a simple but spellbinding activity: stargazing. ___16___ It’s so interesting to discover what’s going on. With a bit of practice, and know-how from books and websites, stargazers can spot particular stars and also groups of stars.
There is plenty to take in using just your eyes but some people use a telescope for a more detailed look. For the best results, choose a clear night when the moon is not very bright. ___17___
It can be harder to see the stars in towns and cities. It is because of light pollution. The night sky is brightened by light from street lamps, shops and car headlights. The best places for stargazing are open, hilly areas or the coast. ___18___ It is our home galaxy stretching across the night sky and is best seen in summer and fall evening skies. If the full moon is up, it will be hard to see. Try going for a night hike instead! Let your eyes adjust to the moonlight and keep your flashlight turned off.
___19___ That is camping in a national park under a star-filled sky. Many national parks offer various night sky programs, from telescope astronomy events to full moon walks with rangers. Besides, national parks are also great places to know about the animals that are awake at night and asleep during the day. Sit quietly and listen for these creatures.
When you head out at night, always go with an adult. Dress warmly and take a blanket or a chair to sit on, plus a hot drink to warm you up. You might want to take a camera with you as well, so you can take a photo if you see something amazing in the sky. A whole new world comes alive at night and is waiting to be explored. ___20___
A. Get prepared for the wonder above.
B. Just go outside at night and look up.
C. You are supposed to avoid the full moon.
D. It also matters which direction you observe.
E. In these places, you can look for the Milky Way.
F. What is the better way to experience the great wonder?
G. Where do you prefer to have a stargazing trip at night?

How to stay fit while traveling rarely scores high on our priority list. Sometimes it is not that we’re not motivated to stay fit or have no time. I believe the issue is that we are out of our regular “home routine”. ____16____ Our brain simply can’t link the new environment to our usual habits and puts itself in “explorer’s mode”. How can we stay fit while traveling?
Have a strong vision. The best way to create motivation to stay fit is something you can visualize. If you have the visual, it is good. ____17____ If it helps, write it on a piece of paper and put it in your wallet. This will serve as a vision for you. Once you focus on the vision and consistently think about it, things get easier.
Prepare a “travel routine” ahead of time. Consistency is the most important part of the training process. ____18____ I found that having a “travel routine” helps to signal the brain that from the organizational perspective nothing has changed. It doesn’t have to be very detailed and can be as simple as a set of principles, like exercising in the morning or not eating too much after 6:00 p. m.
____19____ The easiest way to stay fit while traveling is to move and make active lifestyle a habit. Walk a couple of stops instead of taking the public transport. Use the stairs instead of an elevator. If there’s a nice viewpoint, look for a way to hike to it rather than drive to it. Sure, it will be tough at first, but our bodies are good at adapting to anything. ____20____
A. People, language, food — everything is different.
B. Stick to 10-minute morning stretches daily.
C. Picture it, feel it, and most importantly, focus on it.
D. Yet, traveling tends to break our regular pattern and change our focus.
E. Walk and explore more.
F. Gradually, you’ll become stronger and start enjoying it.
G. Don’t let travel become an excuse for being lazy.
【答案】16. A 17. C 18. D 19. E 20. F
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要探讨了旅行时保持健康的方法。
【16题详解】
根据上文“Sometimes it is not that we’re not motivated to stay fit or have no time. I believe the issue is that we are out of our regular “home routine”. (有时候并不是我们没有动力去保持健康或者没有时间。我认为问题在于我们脱离了正常的“家庭生活”。)”和下文“Our brain simply can’t link the new environment to our usual habits and puts itself in ‘explorer’s mode’. (我们的大脑根本无法将新环境与我们平常的习惯联系起来,并且使自己处于 “探索者模式”。)”可知,此处应具体说明旅行中环境的不同。A 选项 “人、语言、食物 —— 一切都不同”符合语境,承上启下,故选A。
【17题详解】
根据上文“The best way to create motivation to stay fit is something you can visualize. If you have the visual, it is good. (创造保持健康的动力的最佳方式是你可以想象的东西。如果你有了这种想象的画面,那就很好。)”可知,此处应继续阐述与想象相关的内容。C选项 “想象它,感受它,最重要的是,专注于它。”与上文的“visualize”和“visual”相呼应,符合语境,故选C。
【18题详解】
根据上文“Consistency is the most important part of the training process. (连贯性是训练过程中最重要的部分。)”以及下文“I found that having a ‘travel routine’ helps to signal the brain that from the organizational perspective nothing has changed. (我发现有一个 “旅行日常” 有助于向大脑发出信号,即从组织的角度来看,没有什么改变)”可知,此处应提到旅行对常规模式的影响。D选项“然而,旅行往往会打破我们的常规模式并改变我们的关注点。”与上文的 “Consistency”形成转折,同时引出下文的“travel routine”,符合语境,故选D。
【19题详解】
根据下文“The easiest way to stay fit while traveling is to move and make active lifestyle a habit. Walk a couple of stops instead of taking the public transport. Use the stairs instead of an elevator. (在旅行中保持健康的最简单方法是移动并使积极的生活方式成为一种习惯。步行几个站点而不是乘坐公共交通工具。使用楼梯而不是电梯。)”可知,此处应总结该段内容,强调多步行和探索。E选项“多步行并更多地探索。”符合语境,故选E。
【20题详解】
根据上文“Sure, it will be tough at first, but our bodies are good at adapting to anything. (当然,一开始会很艰难,但我们的身体擅长适应任何事情。)”可知,此处应说明随着时间推移,身体适应后的结果。F选项“逐渐地,你会变得更强壮并开始享受它。”符合语境,承接前文,故选F。

We’ve all been there before — you’re in conversation, things are getting along nicely. ___16___. At that moment, your mind goes completely blank, you don’t know what to say, and you can sense the other person’s eyes wandering as they look for someone else to talk to. That scenario (场面) is terrible, so here are three tips to make sure that you never run out of things to say in conversation again.
Firstly, when you find yourself in that situation where your mind has gone blank, play “Reminds Me of”. That just means that you look to the environment around you and say, “You know, that reminds me of……” and then fill in the blank. ___17___ And it can also work as a follow-up when someone finishes telling a story, which is how many groups of friends interact all the time.
Second, when you ask questions, keep them open-ended as often as possible. ___18___ So rather than saying, “Oh, you’re from Toronto. Do you like it there?” you might say, “How do you like Toronto? I’m curious to hear more about it.” You should get the other person talking about the things that they like, which is going to open up more conversational topics.
___19___ This is the third tip. If you’re in a new group and conversation dies after initial pleasantries, a great question is, “How do you guys all know one another?” There’s almost always some kind of story that conversation can build from. If you’re only speaking to one person, you can say instead, “So what’s your story?” The great thing about this question is that it is so open-ended that the other person will probably guide you towards new topics, usually responding with something like, “You mean what do I do for work or what do I like to do for fun?” ___20___
A. Ask them about their exciting plans for the future.
B. It is great for opening new conversational topics.
C. Then out of nowhere, the awkward silence occurs.
D. You’d better avoid questions inviting a one-word response.
E. That’s because people don’t like to talk to others different from themselves.
F. For the worst scenario when conversation stops suddenly, use saving questions.
G. His or her tone and enthusiasm will tell you the best angle of conversation to continue with.
【答案】16. C 17. B 18. D 19. F 20. G
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了三个谈话技巧,可以确保在谈话中永远不会无话可说。
【16题详解】
前文“We’ve all been there before — you’re in conversation, things are getting along nicely.(我们都有过这样的经历——你在交谈,事情进展得很顺利。)”描述对话中原本顺利,后文“At that moment, your mind goes completely blank, you don’t know what to say, and you can sense the other person’s eyes wandering as they look for someone else to talk to.(在那一刻,你的大脑一片空白,你不知道该说什么,你可以感觉到对方的眼睛在四处游荡,因为他们在寻找可以说话的人。)”说明对话突然出现尴尬的沉默,导致对方失去兴趣。选项C“然后不知怎么的,尴尬的沉默出现了。” 承前启后,对应前文things are getting along nicely的转折,自然引出后文mind goes blank的场景。故选C。
【17题详解】
前文“Firstly, when you find yourself in that situation where your mind has gone blank, play “Reminds Me of”.(首先,当你发现自己处于大脑一片空白的状态时,播放“ Reminds Me of”。)”介绍Reminds Me of的方法技巧,后文“And it can also work as a follow-up when someone finishes telling a story, which is how many groups of friends interact all the time.(当有人讲完一个故事时,它也可以作为后续工作,这就是有多少群朋友一直在互动。)”提到它可作为对话的后续提问。选项B“这是开启新的谈话话题的好方法。”强调该方法技巧开启新话题的作用,与后文逻辑一致。故选B。
【18题详解】
前文“Second, when you ask questions, keep them open-ended as often as possible.(第二,当你问问题的时候,尽可能保持开放性。)”建议使用开放式问题,后文“So rather than saying, “Oh, you’re from Toronto. Do you like it there?” you might say, “How do you like Toronto? I’m curious to hear more about it.”(所以不要说,“哦,你来自多伦多。你喜欢那里吗?你可能会说,“你觉得多伦多怎么样?我很想多听一些。”)”举例对比封闭式问题和开放式问题。选项D“你最好避免用一个词来回答问题。”直接对应keep them open-ended,说明封闭式问题的弊端。故选D。
【19题详解】
后文“This is the third tip. If you’re in a new group and conversation dies after initial pleasantries, a great question is, “How do you guys all know one another?” There’s almost always some kind of story that conversation can build from. (这是第三个技巧。如果你在一个新群体里,在最初的寒暄之后,谈话就结束了,一个很好的问题是,“你们是怎么认识彼此的?”几乎总有一些故事可以作为对话的基础。)”提出第三个技巧,针对对话突然中断的情况提出建议。选项F“在最糟糕的情况下,当谈话突然停止时,使用挽救性问题。”直接点明使用“挽救性问题”,与后文How do you guys all know one another?的例子匹配。故选F。
【20题详解】
前文“The great thing about this question is that it is so open-ended that the other person will probably guide you towards new topics, usually responding with something like, “You mean what do I do for work or what do I like to do for fun?”(这个问题的好处是,它是开放式的,对方可能会引导你谈论新的话题,通常会这样回答:“你的意思是我做什么工作,或者我喜欢做什么娱乐?”)”提到对方可能反问“工作还是兴趣”,选项G“他或她的语气和热情会告诉你继续谈话的最佳角度。” 说明通过对方的反应找到对话方向,与前文逻辑衔接。故选G。

“New Year, New You”. It’s January 1 again. It’s time to make New Year’s Resolutions (决心) again. On the one hand, the New Year’s resolutions reflect our hope to make a personal transformation. On the other hand, they show our regret of the past year. ___16___
The truth is that many people fail to accomplish them and keep making new ones. It is not because of a lack of self-discipline. ___17___ In other words, we seek to “become unrecognizable”.
In fact, the appeal of a “New You” doesn’t have to do with concrete changes. ___18___ With a new year beginning, we want to finally feel that we’re in the driver’s seat when it comes to our health, finances, personality and so on.
So the very concept of “New Year, New You” collapses after careful reflection. Just like we could never drag ourselves out of the mud by pulling on our own hair, we could never win the struggle to become a totally different kind of person.
Instead of “becoming unrecognizable”, the New Year should be a time to commit to “radical doability”. This means embracing (拥抱) the pleasure of an easily reachable goal. If you find waking up at 5 a. m. difficult, make 7 a. m. your initial goal and make progress every day. ___19___ If 2025 is your year for getting fit, it probably isn’t also the time to start tidying your home or learning a new language.
So let 2025 be the year when we finally stop trying to become someone else. ___20___ Let’s start doing things in baby steps: one message to a friend or one workout. Not many, but at least one. Not later, but right now.
A. Rather, we fail to live up to our expectations.
B. Accept who we really are and start from there.
C. But it’s the very attempt to make complete changes.
D. This also means consciously setting up a major goal.
E. Why are we going through such.contradictory feelings?
F. It also means focusing on a limited number of goals at a time.
G. On the contrary, it’s about obtaining a sense of controlling our life.
【答案】16. E 17. C 18. G 19. F 20. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,讨论了新年决心背后的动机及其实际执行情况。文章首先介绍了新年决心的双重性质并进一步探讨了“新你”这一概念的吸引力并不在于具体的改变,而更多地与获得一种控制生活的感受有关。最终,文章提出与其试图彻底改变自己,不如在新的一年里致力于“根本可行性”,即从小的、可轻松达成的目标开始做起,从而逐步实现个人成长和改善。
【16题详解】
根据上文“On the one hand, the New Year’s resolutions reflect our hope to make a personal transformation. On the other hand, they show our regret of the past year.(一方面,新年决心反映了我们希望实现个人转变的愿望。另一方面,它们也显示了我们对过去一年的遗憾)”可知新年决心具有双重性,可以推理出作者在下文要提出一个关于新年决心为何会带来矛盾情感的问题,与E项“Why are we going through such contradictory feelings?(为什么我们会经历如此矛盾的情感?)”表达的含义一致。故选E项。
【17题详解】
根据上文“It is not because of a lack of self-discipline. (这并不是因为缺乏自律)”以及下文“In other words, we seek to “become unrecognizable”(换句话说,我们寻求“变得认不出”)”可知,造成这种现象的原因并非我们不够自律,而是我们追求“变得认不出”,可以推理出空白处要表达的是我们追求的是彻底改变,与C项“But it’s the very attempt to make complete changes.(但正是试图做出彻底改变)”表达的含义一致。故选C项。
【18题详解】
根据下文“With a new year beginning, we want to finally feel that we’re in the driver’s seat when it comes to our health, finances, personality and so on. (随着新年的开始,我们终于希望在健康、财务、个性等方面掌握主动权)”可知我们在新年的时候希望在健康、财务、个性等方面掌握主动权,也就是说我们追求的是获得掌控生活的感受,与G项“On the contrary, it’s about obtaining a sense of controlling our life. (相反,这是关于获得掌控生活的感受)”表达的含义一致。故选G项。
【19题详解】
根据下文“If 2025 is your year for getting fit, it probably isn’t also the time to start tidying your home or learning a new language. (如果2025年是你的健身年,那么现在可能不是开始整理家居或学习新语言的时候)”可知,如果你的目标是健身,就不要开始整理家居或学习新语言,可以推理出此处要表达的是专注于有限数量的目标,与F项“It also means focusing on a limited number of goals at a time. (这也意味着一次专注于有限数量的目标)”表达的含义一致。故选F项。
【20题详解】
根据上文“So let 2025 be the year when we finally stop trying to become someone else. (所以让2025年成为我们终于停止试图成为别人的一年)”以及下文“Let’s start doing things in baby steps: one message to a friend or one workout. Not many, but at least one. Not later, but right now. (让我们开始迈出小步:给朋友发一条信息或做一次锻炼。不多,但至少一次。不是以后,而是现在。)”可知,我们要停止试图成为别人,并从现在开始付出行动,可以推理出此处要表达的是接受真实的自己并从现在开始行动,与B项“Accept who we really are and start from there. (接受我们真实的自己,并从那里开始)”表达的含义一致。故选B项。

Keep Skin Cancer At Bay
“You have skin cancer.” No one wants to hear such scary words. And unfortunately, the number of those who hear them just keeps rising. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates global cancer rates will increase 77 percent by 2050. ____16____ By adopting a few healthy habits and making smart choices, people can reduce their risk of developing skin cancer.
One of the most important ways is to limit your exposure to UV rays from the sun. UV rays are strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., so it’s best to stay indoors or in the shade during these hours. If you have to be in the sun, wear protective clothing. ____17____ These measures can shelter you from harmful radiation and prevent sunburn, which is a major risk factor for skin cancer.
____18____ Choose a type with a sun protection factor of at least 30. It should protect against both kinds of UV rays that cause damage to your skin. Apply it to all exposed skin, including your face, neck, ears and hands, even on cloudy days. Put it on every two hours or more often if you’re swimming or sweating.
Regular skin checks are also key in the prevention of skin cancer. It is vital to examine your skin once a month for spots, moles (痣) or growths. Be on the lookout for changes in size, shape or color. Watch for moles that have one side that is different from the other. ____19____ If a mole is bigger than a pencil eraser or its appearance is changing, consult a skin doctor immediately.
Healthy skin is beautiful. ____20____
A. Look at the size, too.
B. Beauty is only skin deep.
C. Sunglasses that block UV rays are also a must.
D. Protecting it is one of the best things you can do.
E. You are bound to be free from any skin problems mentioned.
F. Using sunscreen is another important way to protect your skin.
G. But the good news is that it’s also one of the easiest to prevent.

Ambivalence(矛盾心理) refers to the frustrating and all-too-common experience of being“on the fence” about making some change. For example, you must have said,“I should start exercising, but it's tough to find the time.” 36 Yet how often do we view ambivalence as some sort of interloper(干涉者), an unwanted and unexpected roadblock on the path to a better life?
37 When we lack understanding about the uncertainty, our ability to effectively resolve it becomes limited. Furthermore, without a clear understanding of the underlying reasons, we risk employing harmful labels that may conveniently but inaccurately explain the reason for our inaction and that of others.“I must be lazy.”“She has no self-discipline.”
A helpful standpoint for us to better understand the roots of indecisiveness comes from a research-based therapy approach called motivational interviewing. 38 You can also make a difference via this method, no matter whether you decide to eat less junk food, lose weight, or reduce screen time.
From a motivational interviewing viewpoint, the root of ambivalence is related to the extent of importance and confidence in making a change. If we don't feel strongly that it's important to make a change or we lack confidence in being able to take the necessary steps,chances are very high that we will waver(动摇) on moving forward. 39
The widespread presence of ambivalence in the face of change is commonly present in human life. It's true for us, and it's true for others, including our family members and friends, and those we encounter and serve in our professional lives. 40 By doing this, we can more clearly see and skillfully address the root causes of ambivalence.
A. And the opposite of that is also true.
B. It' ll be problematic if we misinterpret ambivalence.
C. Thus, we' ll feel highly motivated to make the change.
D. Think about a kind of behavior you' ve been hesitant to change.
E. It's been successfully applied to many cases of behavioral change.
F. Such internal swinging is common when it comes to behavioral change.
G. Acknowledging this fact is essential for overcoming harmful judgments and labels.

Everyone sends texts. It’s simple — one message goes out, and another comes back. ____16____ They smile, wink (眨眼) and cry. Without much notice, emojis (表情符号) change how messages feel.
Researchers often ignore these tiny images. But Eun Huh from the University of Texas at Austin and her team decided to take a closer look. ____17____
Think about your last text. Did it have an emoji? Most likely it did. Nearly everyone uses them. But emojis aren’t just decorations. They work like tiny signals of emotion and bring life to plain words. ____18____ The researchers looked at this effect closely. Their analysis showed something surprising. People feel more connected to those who use emojis. It’s not about picking the right emoji. The magic lies in using them at all.
Why do emojis work so well? They make conversations feel softer and friendlier. They can help to reduce misunderstandings since tone gets difficult to express over text. They also act like little touches of warmth. ____19____ Most importantly, they can do what words sometimes can’t: show that you care.
____20____ This one focused on imagined situations. People weren’t texting real friends during the test. The researchers suggest testing real-time chats next. The experts pointed out that this study included mostly U.S.-based participants. Emoji meanings can shift across cultures. What works in one place might not in another. And there’s one more question waiting. What happens when emojis conflict with words? Like a smiley face paired with sad news. Future studies might explore those mixed signals.
A. Somewhere in between, emojis appear.
B. That sense of being heard led to stronger friendships.
C. Every study has limitations and this one is no exception.
D. They called them more responsive and the chats felt warmer.
E. A simple heart can completely change the tone of a message.
F. They draw attention and show effort, even in rushed conversations.
G. Her study examined emojis’ role in improving relationship closeness.

We live in an interruption-based culture that can be damaging to productivity. Most of the time, information from electronic devices only adds to the distraction. Here are some tips to help you increase your focus and complete the things that count:
___16___ Write down what you want to finish each day and identify a single priority that you commit yourself to complete This will help focus your brain on what matters, dealing with the big jobs first and leaving the small ones till later.

B. Commit yourself to complete your task.

Sustainable packaging has become a buzzword in recent years. From paper-based materials to biodegradable alternatives, the shift away from traditional plastics appears to be a step in the right direction. 36
One of the most popular alternatives to plastics is paper-based packaging. The logic appears sound. 37 However, the environmental cost of paper production is often overlooked. Compared to plastic, producing paper packaging requires significantly more energy and water. A study highlighted that paper bags require at least four times more energy to manufacture than plastic bags.
38 While many brands claim to use responsibly sourced or recycled paper, the global demand for paper packaging still places immense pressure on forests. This pressure will cause too much tree cutting and habitat loss, harming wildlife. And the loss of trees will reduce the planet’s ability to absorb carbon dioxide.
Moreover, paper-based packaging is usually heavier than plastic packaging. 39 For instance, trucks carrying paper packages use more fuel, increasing emissions. This extra weight also makes logistics (物流) more challenging.
Therefore, the full life cycle of paper packaging shows its eco-benefits aren’t as clear as they seem. 40 This means focusing on reducing waste first, making better waste management systems, and using sustainable materials in the best way. Only by doing all these things together can we cut down on environmental harm.
A. This can make transportation less efficient.
B. However, beneath the surface lies a more complex reality.
C. Therefore, many brands now use paper-based packaging.
D. Its production requires four times the energy of plastic bags.
E. The destruction of forests linked to the paper industry is another concern.
F. To achieve sustainable packaging completely, we need a well-rounded approach.
G. Paper is biodegradable, recyclable, and can be obtained from renewable resources.

No More Chicken Wings, Please!
Could I eat another bite? I glanced at my car seat, piled high with takeaway chicken wings. Six orders in one afternoon had pushed me to my limit. Feeling overly full was nothing new for a food critic, but I’d finally had enough of this stressful, unhealthy job.
Six years earlier, I’d been thrilled to land this job. I drove hundreds of miles every week, eating out four to five times a day to hunt for hidden restaurants, unique dishes and untold stories. ____16____ “Wait! You get paid to eat? That’s my dream job,” they’d say.
Outwardly it seemed like a dream job, but it was far from enjoyable. I never complained about the pressure, rushing from meal to meal and deadline to deadline, constantly putting off regular medical check-ups. ____17____ “I’d like this number lower,” my doctor said, pointing at my high cholesterol. “I can’t control my diet for work,” I replied.
Many food writers only take one bite of each dish, but I always finished the meals I loved. My weight climbed steadily, exercise did little to help, and long-term overeating did lasting harm to my body. One day, my doctor warned me seriously, “You’re pre-diabetic.” ____18____ I tried to process the shocking news while eating fish tacos nearby, still unable to turn down the food in front of me. I stayed in the job for another year, but I gradually began to dream of simple home cooking instead of endless restaurant meals. ____19____
“I’m leaving the newspaper,” I told my boss. “Are you sure?” she asked in surprise. Yes, I was completely certain. ____20____ It took months to control my oversized appetite and break bad eating habits, but I was determined to regain my health. Nine months later, I’ve lost the extra weight and my blood sugar is back to normal. Less stress has even made me look younger. “You look so relaxed,” friends said.
A. Tight deadlines took up all my personal time.
B. A huge weight was instantly lifted off my mind.
C. I decided to quit for my health before it was too late.
D. People envied my job the moment they heard about it.
E. My blood test results were alarming when I saw a doctor.
F. The tiring work and overeating ruined my health gradually.
G. OK, so my blood sugar had become a worrying problem too.

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
You don’t need to be an astronomer with a giant telescope to enjoy a simple but spellbinding activity: stargazing. ___16___ It’s so interesting to discover what’s going on. With a bit of practice, and know-how from books and websites, stargazers can spot particular stars and also groups of stars.
There is plenty to take in using just your eyes but some people use a telescope for a more detailed look. For the best results, choose a clear night when the moon is not very bright. ___17___
It can be harder to see the stars in towns and cities. It is because of light pollution. The night sky is brightened by light from street lamps, shops and car headlights. The best places for stargazing are open, hilly areas or the coast. ___18___ It is our home galaxy stretching across the night sky and is best seen in summer and fall evening skies. If the full moon is up, it will be hard to see. Try going for a night hike instead! Let your eyes adjust to the moonlight and keep your flashlight turned off.
___19___ That is camping in a national park under a star-filled sky. Many national parks offer various night sky programs, from telescope astronomy events to full moon walks with rangers. Besides, national parks are also great places to know about the animals that are awake at night and asleep during the day. Sit quietly and listen for these creatures.
When you head out at night, always go with an adult. Dress warmly and take a blanket or a chair to sit on, plus a hot drink to warm you up. You might want to take a camera with you as well, so you can take a photo if you see something amazing in the sky. A whole new world comes alive at night and is waiting to be explored. ___20___
A. Get prepared for the wonder above.
B. Just go outside at night and look up.
C. You are supposed to avoid the full moon.
D. It also matters which direction you observe.
E. In these places, you can look for the Milky Way.
F. What is the better way to experience the great wonder?
G. Where do you prefer to have a stargazing trip at night?

How to stay fit while traveling rarely scores high on our priority list. Sometimes it is not that we’re not motivated to stay fit or have no time. I believe the issue is that we are out of our regular “home routine”. ____16____ Our brain simply can’t link the new environment to our usual habits and puts itself in “explorer’s mode”. How can we stay fit while traveling?
Have a strong vision. The best way to create motivation to stay fit is something you can visualize. If you have the visual, it is good. ____17____ If it helps, write it on a piece of paper and put it in your wallet. This will serve as a vision for you. Once you focus on the vision and consistently think about it, things get easier.
Prepare a “travel routine” ahead of time. Consistency is the most important part of the training process. ____18____ I found that having a “travel routine” helps to signal the brain that from the organizational perspective nothing has changed. It doesn’t have to be very detailed and can be as simple as a set of principles, like exercising in the morning or not eating too much after 6:00 p. m.
____19____ The easiest way to stay fit while traveling is to move and make active lifestyle a habit. Walk a couple of stops instead of taking the public transport. Use the stairs instead of an elevator. If there’s a nice viewpoint, look for a way to hike to it rather than drive to it. Sure, it will be tough at first, but our bodies are good at adapting to anything. ____20____
A. People, language, food — everything is different.
B. Stick to 10-minute morning stretches daily.
C. Picture it, feel it, and most importantly, focus on it.
D. Yet, traveling tends to break our regular pattern and change our focus.
E. Walk and explore more.
F. Gradually, you’ll become stronger and start enjoying it.
G. Don’t let travel become an excuse for being lazy.

We’ve all been there before — you’re in conversation, things are getting along nicely. ___16___. At that moment, your mind goes completely blank, you don’t know what to say, and you can sense the other person’s eyes wandering as they look for someone else to talk to. That scenario (场面) is terrible, so here are three tips to make sure that you never run out of things to say in conversation again.
Firstly, when you find yourself in that situation where your mind has gone blank, play “Reminds Me of”. That just means that you look to the environment around you and say, “You know, that reminds me of……” and then fill in the blank. ___17___ And it can also work as a follow-up when someone finishes telling a story, which is how many groups of friends interact all the time.
Second, when you ask questions, keep them open-ended as often as possible. ___18___ So rather than saying, “Oh, you’re from Toronto. Do you like it there?” you might say, “How do you like Toronto? I’m curious to hear more about it.” You should get the other person talking about the things that they like, which is going to open up more conversational topics.
___19___ This is the third tip. If you’re in a new group and conversation dies after initial pleasantries, a great question is, “How do you guys all know one another?” There’s almost always some kind of story that conversation can build from. If you’re only speaking to one person, you can say instead, “So what’s your story?” The great thing about this question is that it is so open-ended that the other person will probably guide you towards new topics, usually responding with something like, “You mean what do I do for work or what do I like to do for fun?” ___20___
A. Ask them about their exciting plans for the future.
B. It is great for opening new conversational topics.
C. Then out of nowhere, the awkward silence occurs.
D. You’d better avoid questions inviting a one-word response.
E. That’s because people don’t like to talk to others different from themselves.
F. For the worst scenario when conversation stops suddenly, use saving questions.
G. His or her tone and enthusiasm will tell you the best angle of conversation to continue with.

“New Year, New You”. It’s January 1 again. It’s time to make New Year’s Resolutions (决心) again. On the one hand, the New Year’s resolutions reflect our hope to make a personal transformation. On the other hand, they show our regret of the past year. ___16___
The truth is that many people fail to accomplish them and keep making new ones. It is not because of a lack of self-discipline. ___17___ In other words, we seek to “become unrecognizable”.
In fact, the appeal of a “New You” doesn’t have to do with concrete changes. ___18___ With a new year beginning, we want to finally feel that we’re in the driver’s seat when it comes to our health, finances, personality and so on.
So the very concept of “New Year, New You” collapses after careful reflection. Just like we could never drag ourselves out of the mud by pulling on our own hair, we could never win the struggle to become a totally different kind of person.
Instead of “becoming unrecognizable”, the New Year should be a time to commit to “radical doability”. This means embracing (拥抱) the pleasure of an easily reachable goal. If you find waking up at 5 a. m. difficult, make 7 a. m. your initial goal and make progress every day. ___19___ If 2025 is your year for getting fit, it probably isn’t also the time to start tidying your home or learning a new language.
So let 2025 be the year when we finally stop trying to become someone else. ___20___ Let’s start doing things in baby steps: one message to a friend or one workout. Not many, but at least one. Not later, but right now.
A. Rather, we fail to live up to our expectations.
B. Accept who we really are and start from there.
C. But it’s the very attempt to make complete changes.
D. This also means consciously setting up a major goal.
E. Why are we going through such.contradictory feelings?
F. It also means focusing on a limited number of goals at a time.
G. On the contrary, it’s about obtaining a sense of controlling our life.
