Born on her family’s farm in Ray, North Dakota, Mary Sherman Morgan had been helping her father with farm work before she could attend the small-town schoolhouse. Being a few years behind didn’t hold her back and she graduated from high school with honors. Aware of her intelligence, she ran away from Ray to attend Minot State University as a chemistry major, where her skill was evident.
The outbreak of World War II led to a national shortage of chemists and scientists. In spite of the fact that she was still a student and a woman, she was offered a job as a chemical analyst due to her talents, producing explosives (爆炸物) for the wartime effort. She put her degree on hold and moved to Ohio, taking on the dangerous job of analyzing unstable chemicals to produce weapons.
After the war ended there was a fall in demand for explosives, so she made a move to the field of aeronautics, moving to California to work for NAA (North American Aviation). The only woman out of 900 engineers, she was soon promoted to a role which involved calculating the performance of rocket propellants (推进剂) and designing special fuels to work with different engines. However, never having returned to complete her degree, she was not afforded the rank or higher pay of an engineer, even though she had all the skills and knowledge of one.
Her experience with propellants meant that when NAA was tasked to find a fuel capable of lifting the redesigned Redstone missiles into space, Morgan was appointed technical lead on the project. National pride was on the line, so Morgan set about investigating fuels. After countless trials, she finally designed her own mixture, which was named Hydyne.
Hydyne tested well with the Redstone missiles and subsequently other aircraft (飞行器) , such as Jupiter-C rockets, proving to be a quick solution to getting to space without a total rocket redesign. The fuel made the first successful US satellite launch possible, even if Morgan silently slipped away from her success, retiring to focus on her family and leaving her chemistry career behind.
24. What do we know about Mary?
A. She attended school while helping with farm work.
B. She was offered a job as a chemistry analyst after graduation.
C. She changed her working focus because her country’s demand changed.
D. She launched the first US satellite before retiring from her career.
25. What was Mary doing after the war ended?
A. Analyzing chemicals. B. Producing explosives.
C. Mixing and saving fuels. D. Designing and building aircraft.
26. What made Mary the technical lead on the project of NAA?
A. Her special knowledge in fuels. B. Her rank as an engineer.
C. Her discovery of Hydyne. D. Her sense of national pride
27. Which of the following words can describe Mary Sherman Morgan?
A. Caring and determined. B. Intelligent and skillful.
C. Courageous but sensitive. D. Accomplished but proud.
【答案】24. C 25. D 26. A 27. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。本文主要讲述了Mary Sherman Morgan的生平,她从农场女孩成长为化学分析师,后因战争需求转行,最终在航空领域取得重大成就的故事。
【24题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“The outbreak of World War II led to a national shortage of chemists and scientists.(第二次世界大战的爆发导致了全国化学家和科学家的短缺。)”和第三段“After the war ended there was a fall in demand for explosives, so she made a move to the field of aeronautics(战争结束后,炸药的需求出现下滑,于是她转向了航空领域)”可知,Mary的工作重点从化学家转向了航空领域,是因为国家的需求发生了变化。故选C。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“After the war ended there was a fall in demand for explosives, so she made a move to the field of aeronautics, moving to California to work for NAA (North American Aviation). The only woman out of 900 engineers, she was soon promoted to a role which involved calculating the performance of rocket propellants (推进剂) and designing special fuels to work with different engines.(战争结束后,炸药的需求出现下滑,于是她转向了航空领域,移居加利福尼亚为北美航空公司(NAA)效力。作为 900 名工程师中唯一的女性,她很快得到晋升,负责计算火箭推进剂的性能,并为不同发动机设计专用燃料。)”可知,战后Mary在设计和制造飞行器。故选D。

On Oct.6, three scientists were awarded the 2025 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. They discovered how the body stops its own immune system from turning against itself, a process vital for preventing autoimmune (自身免疫性) diseases.
The immune system performs a remarkable balancing act. On a daily basis, it must accurately identify and destroy a great many foreign invaders like viruses and bacteria, many of which have gradually developed into what look like our own cells. The critical question was: what system ensures this defense force does not harm the body it is meant to protect?
For a long time, the thymus (胸腺), a small organ in the chest, was considered the central area for establishing “immune tolerance.” It was thought to remove attacking cells during early development. However, this theory could not fully explain the body’s continuous self-control.
The revolutionary change began with the work of Japanese scientist Shimon Sakaguchi. Through a series of innovative experiments on newborn mice in the 1980s and 1990s, he made an unexpected discovery that removing the thymus led to autoimmune disorders, suggesting that the organ was not just removing harmful cells but was also the source of specialized protective cells. After a decade of strict investigation, Sakaguchi definitively identified a new class of cells in 1995, which he named “T-reggs”.
In the beginning, the scientific community met this discovery with a lot of doubt, since the existence of these “peacekeeper” cells was a completely new idea. The crucial confirmation came from the work of American scientists Mary Brunkow and Fred Ramsdell. Their research in the late 1990s and early 2000s detailed the precise systems: T-reggs either produce calming proteins or deliver direct signals to take control of other attacking immune cells. Furthermore, they identified a specific protein called FoxP3, which acts as a key switch for T-reg function, providing a clear marker for their study.
The discoveries of these three scientists have proved that immunity is not merely an attacking force but is under constant, active control. This essential knowledge has opened up new roads for treating autoimmune conditions, improving organ transplant capacity, and even developing more effective cancer treatments, showcasing the significant impact of understanding the body’s internal safeguards.
28. What does “immune tolerance” in paragraph 3 refer to?
A. The process of avoiding self-attack. B. The function in producing immune cells.
C. The ability to destroy viruses and bacteria. D. The tendency of losing continuous self-control.
29. What can be inferred from Sakaguchi’s experiment?
A. The result was immediately accepted.
B. The thymus failed to remove harmful cells.
C. T-reggs were confirmed to produce calming proteins.
D. The thymus had a previously unknown protective function.
30. What is mainly mentioned about the discovery in the last paragraph?
A. Its remaining challenges. B. Its impact on our body.
C. Its wide applications in medicine. D. Its success in curing illnesses.
31. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A. T-reggs: Body’s Peacekeepers. B. Thymus: Centre of Creating Cells.
C. Side Effects of the Immune System. D. Fight Against Autoimmune Diseases.
【答案】28. A 29. D 30. C 31. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章围绕2025年诺贝尔生理学或医学奖展开,介绍了三位科学家的核心发现:胸腺并非仅清除有害免疫细胞,还能产生名为“调节性T细胞(T-reggs)”的保护性细胞。这些细胞通过特定机制调控免疫系统,避免其攻击自身(即“免疫耐受”),该发现为自身免疫病治疗、器官移植优化及癌症疗法研发开辟了新路径。
【28题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段“For a long time, the thymus (胸腺), a small organ in the chest, was considered the central area for establishing “immune tolerance”. It was thought to remove attacking cells during early development. However, this theory could not fully explain the body’s continuous self-control.( 长期以来,胸腺(位于胸腔内的一个小器官)被视为建立“免疫耐受”的核心部位。人们认为它会在机体早期发育阶段清除具有攻击性的细胞。但这一理论无法充分解释人体持续的自我调控机制。)”可知,免疫耐受指的是身体避免免疫系统攻击自身细胞的过程,即避免自我攻击的过程。故选A。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“Through a series of innovative experiments on newborn mice in the 1980s and 1990s, he made an unexpected discovery that removing the thymus led to autoimmune disorders, suggesting that the organ was not just removing harmful cells but was also the source of specialized protective cells.(通过对20世纪80年代和90年代新生小鼠进行的一系列创新实验,他意外地发现,切除胸腺会导致自身免疫性疾病,这表明该器官不仅清除有害细胞,还是专门保护细胞的来源。)”可知,Sakaguchi的实验表明胸腺不仅清除有害细胞,还产生专门的保护细胞,即胸腺具有先前未知的保护功能。故选D。
【30题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“The discoveries of these three scientists have proved that immunity is not merely an attacking force but is under constant, active control. This essential knowledge has opened up new roads for treating autoimmune conditions, improving organ transplant capacity, and even developing more effective cancer treatments, showcasing the significant impact of understanding the body’s internal safeguards.(这三位科学家的发现证明,免疫不仅仅是一种攻击力量,而是受到持续、主动的控制。这一基本知识为治疗自身免疫性疾病、提高器官移植能力,甚至开发更有效的癌症治疗方法开辟了新的道路,展示了了解身体内部保障机制的重大影响。)”可知,最后一段主要提到了这一发现对医学的广泛应用,包括治疗自身免疫性疾病、提高器官移植能力和开发更有效的癌症治疗方法。故选C。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。文章围绕2025年诺贝尔生理学或医学奖展开,介绍了三位科学家的核心发现:胸腺并非仅清除有害免疫细胞,还能产生名为“调节性T细胞(T-reggs)”的保护性细胞。这些细胞通过特定机制调控免疫系统,避免其攻击自身(即“免疫耐受”),该发现为自身免疫病治疗、器官移植优化及癌症疗法研发开辟了新路径。由此可知,A项:“调节性T细胞:人体的“和平守护者””是最好的标题。故选A。

In a clinical trial with 80 adults, a team of researchers found that sleep extension reduced energy intake and resulted in a negative energy balance in real-life settings among adults with overweight who habitually reduced their sleep duration (持续时间). The findings appear in the journal JAMA Internal Medicine.
Obesity is a major public health concern. Much evidence suggests that sleeping less than 7 hours per night on a regular basis is associated with adverse health results. Particularly, insufficient sleep duration has been increasingly recognized as an important factor for obesity. However, it remains unknown whether extending sleep duration can be an effective strategy for preventing obesity.
The clinical trial involved 80 adults aged 21 to 40 years with a body mass index (BMI) between 25.0 and 29.9, and habitual sleep duration of less than 6.5 hours per night. The study was conducted from November 1, 2014 to October 30, 2020. The participants were able to increase their sleep duration by an average of 1.2 hours per night after a personalized sleep counseling (咨询) session.
Overall, participants who increased their sleep duration were able to reduce their calorie intake by an average of 270 kcal per day — which would translate to roughly 12 kg of weight loss over three years if the effects were maintained over a long term.
Ultimately, the researchers hope to examine the underlying (潜在的) mechanisms that may explain these results, and believe their work should encourage new, larger studies on weight control to determine if extending sleep can support weight-loss programs and help prevent or reverse obesity.
“In our earlier work, we understood that sleep is important for appetite regulation,” Dr. Tasali said. “Now we’ve shown that in real life, without making any other lifestyle changes, you can extend your sleep and eat fewer calories. This could really help people trying to lose weight.”
32. What’s the new finding of the research?
A. Sleep extension can lead to weight problems.
B. Extending sleep duration helps reduce caloric intake.
C. Controlling energy intake is the key to losing weight.
D. Overweight adults often decrease their sleep duration.
33. What’s the probable meaning of the underlined word “adverse” in paragraph 2?
A. Harmful. B. Unique. C. Lasting. D. Apparent.
34. According to the text, the subject of the study ________.
A. usually slept 6.5 hours per night
B. were 80 adults of the similar age group
C. got advice on sleep tailored to themselves
D. were particularly chosen from a certain place
35. What do researchers think of the study?
A. Its results are hard to explain clearly.
B. It lays a foundation for further studies.
C. It’s unreliable with many factors ignored.
D. It has solved all the puzzles of researchers.
【答案】32. B 33. A 34. C 35. B
【解析】

【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“In a clinical trial with 80 adults, a team of researchers found that sleep extension reduced energy intake and resulted in a negative energy balance in real-life settings among adults with overweight who habitually reduced their sleep duration (持续时间). (在一项针对80名成年人的临床试验中,一组研究人员发现,在现实生活中,睡眠延长会减少能量摄入,致使习惯性缩短睡眠时间的超重成年人出现负能量平衡。)”可知,这项研究发现,延长睡眠时间有助于减少热量摄入。故选B。
【33题详解】
词句猜测题。根据下文“Particularly, insufficient sleep duration has been increasingly recognized as an important factor for obesity. (特别是,睡眠时间不足已日益被认为是肥胖的一个重要因素。)”可知,睡眠不足对健康有害,故画线词所在句意为“大量证据表明,经常每晚睡眠不足7小时与不良健康结果有关”,由此可知,adverse意为“有害的”。故选A。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“The participants were able to increase their sleep duration by an average of 1.2 hours per night after a personalized sleep counseling (咨询) session. (经过个性化的睡眠咨询后,参与者每晚的睡眠时间平均增加了1.2小时。)”可知,研究对象得到了适合自己的睡眠建议。故选C。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Ultimately, the researchers hope to examine the underlying (潜在的) mechanisms that may explain these results, and believe their work should encourage new, larger studies on weight control to determine if extending sleep can support weight-loss programs and help prevent or reverse obesity. (最终,研究人员希望研究出解释这些结果的潜在机制,并相信他们的工作应该鼓励新的、更大规模的体重控制研究,以确定延长睡眠是否可以支持减肥计划,并有助于预防或逆转肥胖。)”可知,研究人员认为这项研究为进一步的研究奠定了基础。故选B。

Offering advice isn’t easy. You may feel pressured, especially if you’ve accidentally given unhelpful advice before. But these tips will help you become skilled at it soon!
Take time to think about the issue if you can. Spend a day or a few hours exploring its possible solutions. You may even ask someone more knowledgeable for advice. However, most people need immediate help when they ask for advice. ___36___
Talk them through the difficulties. Talk about the hard parts of their situation and why they’re problematic. ___37___ Something they see as an impassable barrier might be easy to overcome with an outside perspective. For example: “You want to join the school play but worry it’s too hard. What’s stopping you? Memorizing lines? Fear of performing in front of others?”
Help them evaluate the problem from an outside angle. People often miss the whole situation or solutions because they focus on small problems. ___38___ From your perspective, point out details they’ve missed. If a friend worries a handmade party gift isn’t “fancy enough,” note unique items get more compliments than expensive ones.
___39___ Guide them through their options, then suggest new ones. Don’t let them reject options quickly—weigh all fairly. If they dismiss an option, find the real reason; they may object based on wrong ideas. For example: “You want better grades but worry about time. Try a study schedule, ask teachers for help, or join a study group?”
Share any information you have. After discussing options, share your experience or what to expect. This helps them clarify feelings about options. ___40___ Remember to avoid bias and judgment in your words.
Also, know when to be firm or kind—most need encouragement, but sometimes honesty is key. Finally, stress you can’t control the future: you can’t guarantee results, but you’ll support them.
A. Open them up to all their options.
B. Help them step back by looking at the big picture.
C. List each option and then compare its good and bad points.
D. This helps them break down big problems into small steps.
E. It will also help them feel more confident about their final choice.
F. So you must ask other experts for more detailed suggestions right away.
G. So you might have to respond to the best of your ability and follow up later.

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】范文 1
In recent years, organic farming has gained significant popularity, so our class had a discussion about it.
Seventy percent of the students support organic farming. They believe organic food is richer in nutrients, which is beneficial to health. Besides, organic farming uses fewer chemicals, thus reducing environmental pollution. However, 30% of the students are against it. They argue that organic food is much more expensive than conventional food, and its production can’t meet the huge market demand.
In my opinion, organic farming is a promising industry. Although it has some drawbacks now, with technological development, the production costs will be reduced and the output will be increased. We should encourage organic farming while finding ways to solve its current problems.
范文 2

His classmates noticed his trouble and offered to help. They gathered around Tom, explaining their ideas and methods patiently. With their help, Tom gradually understood the problem step by step.
Later, Tom went to Miss Chen and showed his solution. Miss Chen praised him for his efforts and encouraged the class to help each other. Tom realized that teamwork makes difficult things easier. From then on, he often discussed study problems with his classmates and made great progress.

Right before the morning math class ended, Miss Chen gave the students a challenging math problem.
As soon as class was over, Tom started working on this difficult problem. He read the problem carefully, drew pictures to help, and wrote down his calculations. He tried every way he could think of, and his pen moved quickly on the paper, but he still couldn’t solve it. He felt totally stuck and couldn’t help frowning. Noticing Tom’s confused look, his classmates all gathered around him. They offered to help and thought of all possible ideas. Time ticking by, they finally found the key part to solve the problem. After his classmates left the classroom, Tom stayed behind to write down the clear steps. A big smile appeared on his face.
The next day, Tom volunteered to give a great presentation about his solution. Miss Chen clapped, and the other students cheered for him. It was through this experience that Tom learned: when we face difficulties, working together and sharing ideas makes us stronger.

Born on her family’s farm in Ray, North Dakota, Mary Sherman Morgan had been helping her father with farm work before she could attend the small-town schoolhouse. Being a few years behind didn’t hold her back and she graduated from high school with honors. Aware of her intelligence, she ran away from Ray to attend Minot State University as a chemistry major, where her skill was evident.
The outbreak of World War II led to a national shortage of chemists and scientists. In spite of the fact that she was still a student and a woman, she was offered a job as a chemical analyst due to her talents, producing explosives (爆炸物) for the wartime effort. She put her degree on hold and moved to Ohio, taking on the dangerous job of analyzing unstable chemicals to produce weapons.
After the war ended there was a fall in demand for explosives, so she made a move to the field of aeronautics, moving to California to work for NAA (North American Aviation). The only woman out of 900 engineers, she was soon promoted to a role which involved calculating the performance of rocket propellants (推进剂) and designing special fuels to work with different engines. However, never having returned to complete her degree, she was not afforded the rank or higher pay of an engineer, even though she had all the skills and knowledge of one.
Her experience with propellants meant that when NAA was tasked to find a fuel capable of lifting the redesigned Redstone missiles into space, Morgan was appointed technical lead on the project. National pride was on the line, so Morgan set about investigating fuels. After countless trials, she finally designed her own mixture, which was named Hydyne.
Hydyne tested well with the Redstone missiles and subsequently other aircraft (飞行器) , such as Jupiter-C rockets, proving to be a quick solution to getting to space without a total rocket redesign. The fuel made the first successful US satellite launch possible, even if Morgan silently slipped away from her success, retiring to focus on her family and leaving her chemistry career behind.
24. What do we know about Mary?
A. She attended school while helping with farm work.
B. She was offered a job as a chemistry analyst after graduation.
C. She changed her working focus because her country’s demand changed.
D. She launched the first US satellite before retiring from her career.
25. What was Mary doing after the war ended?
A. Analyzing chemicals. B. Producing explosives.
C. Mixing and saving fuels. D. Designing and building aircraft.
26. What made Mary the technical lead on the project of NAA?
A. Her special knowledge in fuels. B. Her rank as an engineer.
C. Her discovery of Hydyne. D. Her sense of national pride
27. Which of the following words can describe Mary Sherman Morgan?
A. Caring and determined. B. Intelligent and skillful.
C. Courageous but sensitive. D. Accomplished but proud.

On Oct.6, three scientists were awarded the 2025 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. They discovered how the body stops its own immune system from turning against itself, a process vital for preventing autoimmune (自身免疫性) diseases.
The immune system performs a remarkable balancing act. On a daily basis, it must accurately identify and destroy a great many foreign invaders like viruses and bacteria, many of which have gradually developed into what look like our own cells. The critical question was: what system ensures this defense force does not harm the body it is meant to protect?
For a long time, the thymus (胸腺), a small organ in the chest, was considered the central area for establishing “immune tolerance.” It was thought to remove attacking cells during early development. However, this theory could not fully explain the body’s continuous self-control.
The revolutionary change began with the work of Japanese scientist Shimon Sakaguchi. Through a series of innovative experiments on newborn mice in the 1980s and 1990s, he made an unexpected discovery that removing the thymus led to autoimmune disorders, suggesting that the organ was not just removing harmful cells but was also the source of specialized protective cells. After a decade of strict investigation, Sakaguchi definitively identified a new class of cells in 1995, which he named “T-reggs”.
In the beginning, the scientific community met this discovery with a lot of doubt, since the existence of these “peacekeeper” cells was a completely new idea. The crucial confirmation came from the work of American scientists Mary Brunkow and Fred Ramsdell. Their research in the late 1990s and early 2000s detailed the precise systems: T-reggs either produce calming proteins or deliver direct signals to take control of other attacking immune cells. Furthermore, they identified a specific protein called FoxP3, which acts as a key switch for T-reg function, providing a clear marker for their study.
The discoveries of these three scientists have proved that immunity is not merely an attacking force but is under constant, active control. This essential knowledge has opened up new roads for treating autoimmune conditions, improving organ transplant capacity, and even developing more effective cancer treatments, showcasing the significant impact of understanding the body’s internal safeguards.
28. What does “immune tolerance” in paragraph 3 refer to?
A. The process of avoiding self-attack. B. The function in producing immune cells.
C. The ability to destroy viruses and bacteria. D. The tendency of losing continuous self-control.
29. What can be inferred from Sakaguchi’s experiment?
A. The result was immediately accepted.
B. The thymus failed to remove harmful cells.
C. T-reggs were confirmed to produce calming proteins.
D. The thymus had a previously unknown protective function.
30. What is mainly mentioned about the discovery in the last paragraph?
A. Its remaining challenges. B. Its impact on our body.
C. Its wide applications in medicine. D. Its success in curing illnesses.
31. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A. T-reggs: Body’s Peacekeepers. B. Thymus: Centre of Creating Cells.
C. Side Effects of the Immune System. D. Fight Against Autoimmune Diseases.
D
In a clinical trial with 80 adults, a team of researchers found that sleep extension reduced energy intake and resulted in a negative energy balance in real-life settings among adults with overweight who habitually reduced their sleep duration (持续时间). The findings appear in the journal JAMA Internal Medicine.
Obesity is a major public health concern. Much evidence suggests that sleeping less than 7 hours per night on a regular basis is associated with adverse health results. Particularly, insufficient sleep duration has been increasingly recognized as an important factor for obesity. However, it remains unknown whether extending sleep duration can be an effective strategy for preventing obesity.
The clinical trial involved 80 adults aged 21 to 40 years with a body mass index (BMI) between 25.0 and 29.9, and habitual sleep duration of less than 6.5 hours per night. The study was conducted from November 1, 2014 to October 30, 2020. The participants were able to increase their sleep duration by an average of 1.2 hours per night after a personalized sleep counseling (咨询) session.
Overall, participants who increased their sleep duration were able to reduce their calorie intake by an average of 270 kcal per day — which would translate to roughly 12 kg of weight loss over three years if the effects were maintained over a long term.
Ultimately, the researchers hope to examine the underlying (潜在的) mechanisms that may explain these results, and believe their work should encourage new, larger studies on weight control to determine if extending sleep can support weight-loss programs and help prevent or reverse obesity.
“In our earlier work, we understood that sleep is important for appetite regulation,” Dr. Tasali said. “Now we’ve shown that in real life, without making any other lifestyle changes, you can extend your sleep and eat fewer calories. This could really help people trying to lose weight.”
32. What’s the new finding of the research?
A. Sleep extension can lead to weight problems.
B. Extending sleep duration helps reduce caloric intake.
C. Controlling energy intake is the key to losing weight.
D. Overweight adults often decrease their sleep duration.
33. What’s the probable meaning of the underlined word “adverse” in paragraph 2?
A. Harmful. B. Unique. C. Lasting. D. Apparent.
34. According to the text, the subject of the study ________.
A. usually slept 6.5 hours per night
B. were 80 adults of the similar age group
C. got advice on sleep tailored to themselves
D. were particularly chosen from a certain place
35. What do researchers think of the study?
A. Its results are hard to explain clearly.
B. It lays a foundation for further studies.
C. It’s unreliable with many factors ignored.
D. It has solved all the puzzles of researchers.

Offering advice isn’t easy. You may feel pressured, especially if you’ve accidentally given unhelpful advice before. But these tips will help you become skilled at it soon!
Take time to think about the issue if you can. Spend a day or a few hours exploring its possible solutions. You may even ask someone more knowledgeable for advice. However, most people need immediate help when they ask for advice. ___36___
Talk them through the difficulties. Talk about the hard parts of their situation and why they’re problematic. ___37___ Something they see as an impassable barrier might be easy to overcome with an outside perspective. For example: “You want to join the school play but worry it’s too hard. What’s stopping you? Memorizing lines? Fear of performing in front of others?”
Help them evaluate the problem from an outside angle. People often miss the whole situation or solutions because they focus on small problems. ___38___ From your perspective, point out details they’ve missed. If a friend worries a handmade party gift isn’t “fancy enough,” note unique items get more compliments than expensive ones.
___39___ Guide them through their options, then suggest new ones. Don’t let them reject options quickly—weigh all fairly. If they dismiss an option, find the real reason; they may object based on wrong ideas. For example: “You want better grades but worry about time. Try a study schedule, ask teachers for help, or join a study group?”
Share any information you have. After discussing options, share your experience or what to expect. This helps them clarify feelings about options. ___40___ Remember to avoid bias and judgment in your words.
Also, know when to be firm or kind—most need encouragement, but sometimes honesty is key. Finally, stress you can’t control the future: you can’t guarantee results, but you’ll support them.
A. Open them up to all their options.
B. Help them step back by looking at the big picture.
C. List each option and then compare its good and bad points.
D. This helps them break down big problems into small steps.
E. It will also help them feel more confident about their final choice.
F. So you must ask other experts for more detailed suggestions right away.
G. So you might have to respond to the best of your ability and follow up later.
