In a restaurant, I met a young man. He was always complaining (抱怨) ever since he sat down, complaining his company for little pay, his unjust manager and the 1 workmates. Finally, I caught the moment he stopped and asked him2 , "Since you are so unhappy3 your work, why not4 ?" He looked at me as if I had come from the moon. "Quit the job? Where should I go? You know the situation is improving." I got it. Actually, his job was not so5 .

3、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。
What gives your life meaning? It is an important and natural practical question that we all ask ourselves at times. It circles around the notion of having a purpose and a reason to wake up and move forward in our lives. Is it time to bring it back on track? Here's how to get started.
Treat your depression
Your depression empties your energy and damages your motivation. Therefore, the key here is taking action no matter what you start with: tackling the depression directly through taking medicines or consulting doctors to get you moving forward. What the action is matters less than taking action itself.
Get out of your head into your emotion
If you are heavily driven by what you should do, you need to start rewiring your brain to use your emotions as information. Once you notice them, do something concrete with them - again, act. That is how you learn to trust your emotions and use them to guide you, and how you rewire your brain.
Explore, experiment
You can't figure out your sense of purpose by sitting on the couch and thinking it over. You also need to focus on doing different experiments with being bold, and taking acceptable risks.
The path to discovering or reigniting your sense of purpose is not about making a new decision but focusing on the process that leads to that decision.
A. Hence, your emotions are your source of passion, desire, and energy.
B. It may be caused by physical or emotional limitations that take away joy.
C. However, for many, that sense of purpose has been absent for long stretches.
D. Without them, you don't make the changes that can pull you out of the depression.
E. Instead, you need to explore, try things and see what sticks, what works, what doesn't.
F. Start by focusing on those slightest feelings telling you what you want and don't want.
G. Therefore, you need to clear away obstacles that keep you from acting and moving forward.

It's not hard to be poetic about the broad and deep benefits of spending time in natural spaces,from amazing national parks to the simple loveliness of a walk around a city park or tree-lined neighborhood street, and some time working in the dirt of your own garden.
A new study from researchers at Clemson University has found another benefit to simply putting your body in a natural space: it can lower the amount of money you spend on health care.
"The mechanisms linking nature and health are very diverse," said Matthew H. E. M. Browning, the principal investigator on the study, "but the benefit is believed to be in part because being in green space can decrease stress, promote healthy behaviors and enable you to breathe fresh air."
Browning and his team used satellite data to investigate how much green space was within 250,500 and 1,000 meters(820,1,640,and 3,280 feet) of five million northern California residents who were insured by Kaiser Permanente. They then determined the costs the insurance company paid out to those same members over a two-year period. They took into account age,gender,race and a number of neighborhood characteristics including population density and education levels.
Even with all these factors included into their analysis, the researchers found that those who lived near the most green space had an average of $374 less per year in health care expenses compared to those who lived farther from natural spaces.
The researchers hope their findings will support public policies that prioritize(优先考虑) natural elements in residential areas. For you, maybe this learning will inspire you to plant a tree or a potted flower today-or create a beautiful garden to enjoy, with a view of some health-giving, green goodness.
(1)、What does the author intend to do in paragraph 1?A、Lead in the topic of the text. B、Summarize a recent study result. C、Provide some advice for readers. D、Raise readers' interest in exercise.(2)、What does Matthew H.E.M.Browning try to explain in paragraph 3?A、Why spending time in nature benefits health. B、Nature and health can affect each other deeply. C、How residential green space improves air quality. D、The benefit of walking in a natural space is obvious.(3)、 What do the researchers expect of their findings?A、They can encourage further relevant research. B、They can delight current insurance companies. C、They can boost the establishment of green space. D、They can remind us to purchase more insurance.(4)、What can be the most suitable title for the text?A、Getting Close to Nature Keeps Us Happy B、It's Unnecessary to Invest Much in Health C、It's Not Hard to Keep Fit for City Residents D、Being in Nature Reduces Health Care Cost -

Andy Kong has worked very hard to get to where he is today. He credits becoming a millionaire by 20 to his strict Asian parents who tutored him at a young age by working for the family.
Kong, of Danville, Virginia, started working when he was only nine. English wasn't a strong suit for Andy's parents, and that's where he was able to assist his family the most. After school and on weekends he would help out at their family-owned restaurant and nail salons. Not only did he do the labor work, but he was also involved in creating online ads. This was his introduction to the world of online business.
Andy started his Amazon business in the eighth grade. When he learned about Amazon Dropshipping (代发货模式) from a kid he saw on Instagram, he got inspired and decided to give it a try. Unfortunately, the store eventually got shut down because he was impatient with the growth. Instead of considering it a failure, he viewed this experience as a life lesson and learned from his mistakes. Meanwhile, his parents never stopped trying to talk him into focusing on school and their retail business.
"The biggest challenge when starting a business is getting someone to believe in you," Andy says. He pushed through and did things for himself even when his loved ones discouraged it.
In 2019, Andy met his now business partners, and together, they created an Amazon management company called Project WiFi. This Project has proven to be extremely successful. They currently help over 55 clients run their online businesses, and plan to help many more in the future.
When asked about the secret to his success, Andy says, "Learning to sacrifice whether that's family, friends, or soccer game for a single goal is the only way to succeed, rather than attempting multiple things. If it's worth doing then it's worth doing well with no shortcuts."
(1)、 Why did Andy work in his parents' shops at a young age?A、Because he could earn some pocket money. B、Because his parents weren't fluent in English. C、Because his parents could help with his study. D、Because he could get access to the Internet.(2)、 What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about?A、A new online business model. B、Results of working impatiently. C、Difficulties in Andy's career. D、Andy's tense family relationship.(3)、What does Andy think contributes to his success?A、His early working experiences. B、Lessons learned from his failures. C、Gaining other people's trust. D、Focusing on the thing you choose.(4)、Which of the following can best describe Andy Kong's personality?A、Committed and generous. B、Open-minded and motivated. C、Creative and faithful. D、Hard-working and sociable. -

Antarctica is one of the last untouched frontiers on the planet. Despite its tough conditions, an Antarctic trip is far less dangerous nowadays than in the past. Here are the most popular routes to Antarctica, with different start points, pathways, and modes of transportation.
1. Ship tour from Argentina
Departing from Ushuaia is the most popular route when going to Antarctica from South American ports. Ushuaia is situated closer to Antarctic Peninsula (半岛) than other departure points, hence you can have more time spent on the scenic peninsula admiring icebergs, glaciers and abundant wildlife. There are a variety of ships from Ushuaia to choose.
Duration: 6 to 24 days
Cost: Between USD 6,000 and USD 25,000
Good to know: If you still want to visit some other incredible South American destinations, some suggestions are the Galapagos Islands, Rio de Janeiro and Machu Picchu.
2. Fly-ship tour from Chile
If you want to avoid spending two days crossing the Drake Passage and encounter rough seas in the bad weather, you can choose a fly-ship package. This involves flying to King George Island, which is right off the west coast of Antarctica Peninsula, to join a ship trip. You can also go ashore to experience the same sightseeing and wildlife opportunities.
Duration: 8 days
Cost: Between USD 10,000 and USD 15,000
Good to know: If you have limited time and do not wish to spend more time on a ship than is necessary, then the fly-ship option is ideal.
3. Ship tour from Australia or New Zealand
Although you are unlikely to encounter any other ship all the way, you will see huge icebergs, Mount Erebus (an active volcano), emperor penguins, scientific bases and the sites of historic 20th century Antarctic adventures. If you are looking for a feeling of vast isolation and remoteness, this is the trip to take!
Duration: 26 to 30 days
Cost: USD 16,000 and USD 30,000
Good to know: Ships departing from New Zealand and Australia are smaller and carry no more than 50 passengers. These trips are rare and should be booked well in advance.
(1)、Which of the following is the closest to the Antarctica Peninsula?A、The Galapagos Island. B、Ushuaia. C、King George Island. D、Mount Erebus.(2)、Where will you set off considering saving the most time on the ship?A、Argentina. B、Chile. C、Australia.
