  • 13、​​​​​​​Even as a child, I always loved the feeling of achieving things. Every January 1st, I would dutifully sit down and write out my1 for the upcoming year. I always picked2 goals like: I will lose 50 pounds! And run a marathon! Oh, and be the best parent who never3 at my children!

    The4? I never succeeded. I'd start out strong, but by February or March, I'd be out of will-power and I'd5 quietly back into my old habits. Every winter, I'd feel6, looking back at all of the amazing things…I didn't do.

    Then two years ago, I started7 severe stomach pain. The doctor weren't sure what was causing it, mentioning the8 of a cancer. My mind went blank, and a wave of shock, fear and hopelessness9 over me. A few days later the examination discovered that the stomach pain was from appendix (阑尾). It10 a false alarm, but that changed my life attitude.

    11 back, I think my trouble with New Year's goals was dreaming what I couldn't realize. I was setting myself up for12 every year and then being surprised when I failed!

    Now I take the13 approach: I'm all about the little goals. First, little goals are easy to-set. Instead of going to run a marathon, I've decided to run 20 minutes three days a week. Oh, and I can go as14 as I feel like! Second, little goals are easier to realize. Every time I check one of my mini goals off my list, I feel a sense of15 and achievement. It's a great feeling, and I don't have to wait until the end of the year to experience it!

  • 14、​​​​​​​Building self-esteem (自尊) is significant because it directly impacts how you view and care for yourself, influencing your overall well-being. High self-esteem often reflects healthy self-care practices. We can observe the following golden rules to achieve healthy self-esteem.

    Write out a list of things you admire about yourself. The goal is to change your negative beliefs about yourself. It can be challenging to sit down and think about our admirable qualities. Yet recognizing your skills or things you like about yourself can improve your self-talk. You can try keeping a journal of what you enjoyed or admired.

    Stop being a people pleaser. They often put helping others before their own mental health. This can lead to great stress and burnout at work or in life. It's nice to be helpful and thoughtful when you can. But your self-esteem will suffer when you tie it to the support for others.

    Those with low self-esteem tend to avoid challenges and new opportunities. This can be due to fears or self-doubt. You should face difficulties bravely and try to pull through rough moments. Thus, you will gain increasing confidence in life. Of course, breaking your comfort shell doesn't mean throwing yourself into highly dangerous situations.

    Stop comparing yourself to others. Your progress and self-worth shouldn't be connected to how well other people are doing. It's not easy to stop comparing yourself to others. Remind yourself that people only share the best parts of their life online. Don't let likes on a photo determine your self-worth.

    A. Step out of your comfort zone.

    B. Learn to remove your self-doubt.

    C. Staying away from social media can help this effort.

    D. However, it's no easy task to build healthy self-esteem.

    E. It works wonders for improving attitude towards your life.

    F. People with poor self-esteem feel dutiful to say yes to requests.

    G. You need to appreciate your differences when compared to others.

  • 15、​​​​​​​"Our history and culture is very important to understanding the present moment and where we're heading in the future." said Apple CEO Tim Cook on Monday. Cook highlighted technology's role in expanding the audience for traditional culture after watching a Kunqu Opera performance, saying, "What technology does and what our products do is help expand the audience for traditional culture."

    The event featured a performance of a classic excerpt (节选) from the 400-year-old Peony Pavilion by the Northern Kunqu Opera Theatre. Model-actress and director Chang Chunxiao presented her iPhone-shot short documentary, The People in the Time Tunnel, which reveals behind-the-scenes stories of the theater's new interpretation of the opera. Cook remarked on the power of video to share such cultural experiences globally: "Only a few of us could fit in the theater and enjoy it, but with the video we're able to capture that for the world. It enables us to connect with our history in a much deeper way and with many more people."

    Cook expressed his personal admiration for Chinese calligraphy, calling it "one of the most beautiful art forms in the world," and stressed the importance of its preservation. He underlined the broader significance of safeguarding history and culture in a nation with 5,000 years of heritage, noting that "There's so much in the past that can be learned from and used to make our lives better in the present moment."

    Addressing the current trend of artificial intelligence, Cook expressed his view on technology's purpose: enriching lives, enhancing productivity, and boosting creativity. He firmly asserted technology's supplementary role: "But it does not and it should not replace human being. It's a complement rather than a replacement."

    (1)、What is the main function of Cook's words in Paragraph 1?
    A、Highlight commercial gains. B、Provide false statistics. C、Contrast tradition with innovation. D、Present Cook's major argument.
    (2)、What key role does Cook see for video technology?
    A、Enhancing theatrical performances. B、Globalizing cultural experiences. C、Replacing physical attendance. D、Simplifying artistic creation.
    (3)、What is implied by Cook's reference to China's 5,000-year heritage?
    A、Technology must reproduce historical models to ensure progress. B、Modern societies neglect ancestral wisdom in solving current issues. C、Historical heritage provides applicable insights for present improvement. D、Cultural preservation holds back technological advancement.
    (4)、What is Cook's core belief regarding artificial intelligence?
    A、Human creativity becoming outdated. B、Enhancing, not replacing humanity. C、Automating tasks for efficiency. D、Ethics blocking AI contributions.
  • 16、​​​​​​​Fast food has become our common partner in the modern life. But we may be unaware of how it is reshaping our culture and the way we interact in society.

    Fast food has been gradually replacing the traditional family meal. Dinner used to be a time to slow down, when kids learned from their parents. Today, quality has given way to speed. The phrase "fast-food culture" extends beyond meals — it represents a way of life where patience has become a thing of the past.

    In addition, the global spread of fast food has led to sameness across borders. Fast food chains offer almost the same menu whether you're in Mumbai or Miami. They're like a bulldozer (推土机). It flattens varied cooking traditions and replaces them with a one-size-fits-all offering.

    Fast food, despite its convenience, often comes at a cost. Fast-food chains are often found in lower-income neighborhoods. This has created "food deserts" areas where affordable, healthy food is limited. The result isa vicious cycle (恶性循环). Those who can least afford the health impacts of bad eating habits end up eating the most fast food. When people say you are what you eat, it's not just about physical health. It's also about the social structures. Fast-food culture worsens the unfairness already present in our society.

    We may not be able to completely avoid fast food. After all, it has its place in a modern, fast- paced world. However, recognizing its harm to health and social structures is the first step towards change.

    It's time we treated food as more than just a short stop to rest and eat in our busy day. Its meaning lies in the richness of our traditions, the diversity of our cultures, and the relationships we develop. Let's not let fast food take this away from us.

    (1)、What does "fast-food culture" represent?
    A、A way of slow life. B、A lack of patience. C、A focus on quality. D、A return to traditions.
    (2)、Why does the author compare fast-food chains to a bulldozer?
    A、They reduce food cultural diversity. B、They develop better eating habits. C、They promote local food traditions. D、They gain worldwide popularity.
    (3)、What does the underlined phrase "a vicious cycle" in Paragraph 4 refer to?
    A、Poor people eat more fast food. B、Healthy food becomes expensive. C、The gap between rich and poor widens. D、Fast food does harm to physical health.
    (4)、What's the author's attitude towards fast food?
    A、Completely negative and viewing it dangerous. B、Extremely doubtful and not caring about it. C、Supportive but warning of its harmful effects. D、Concerned but recognizing its practical value.

It's a World Heritage site uniquely suited to spark the imagination of children while offering a fascinating experience for the whole family.

    Camp in a biosphere (生物圈) in Mexico.

    It was early spring and Nana was in the backyard with her grandchildren. Amy, Michael, and Justin were playing when Nana said, "I'm going to start planting my garden. Who wants to help me?"

    "What are going to plant, Nana?" asked Amy. "I like big, yellow sunflowers."

    "I'm going to plant vegetables. That way we can have them to eat when they are ready," said Nana.

    "How long does that take?" asked Michael. He liked vegetables sometimes, especially carrots.

    "It will take a few months before anything is ready to eat," answered Nana. The children were surprised.

    "Months? Why would you do all that work and then have to wait so long?" asked Amy. "You should just go to the store and buy them."

    "Patience, my sweeties! Don' t you know food always tastes best when you grow it yourself?" replied Nana. "And if all of you come to help, it won't be too much work."

    "I'll help you, Nana," offered Justin. He put down the soccer ball and went to look at the gardening tools Nana had laid out. "What do we do first?" Michael and Amy came over to look, too.

    Nana taught Justin how to use a trowel (小铲子) to dig small rows of holes for the seeds. Next, Nana showed Amy how to pour the seeds into each hole. And it was Michael's job to cover up the holes with soil. Finally, Amy wrote the vegetable names on sticks that Justin pushed into the ground. "This way we can remember which vegetable seeds we have planted," said Nana.

    When they had planted everything, the children took turns filling up the watering can so that Nana could make the soil nice and wet for the seeds to start to grow.

    "Now we just water them a little every day, and with some time and sunshine, we'll have some delicious things to eat in the summer," said Nana.
