For the most part,Hank,a two-year-old cat,is a homebody—and for good reason.But on November 6th,Bushong,his owner,spotted Hank resting on a branch near the top of a neighbor’s tree.
Bushong believed Hank got frightened by some dogs.The more scared he got,the higher he climbed.“Cats have an amazing ability to climb up trees,but they aren’t that good at climbing down,” said Dan D’Eramo,director of field services for the Humane Rescue Alliance (HRA).
Bushong then asked the HRA to help,but it was no easy task.HRA called the fire department,but it refused to help because of safety concerns.Then Bushong called a construction company to ask about renting scaffolding(脚手架) but was told she would have to book the equipment 48 days in advance.Next she reached out to a local tree company,Casey Trees.But the crew said it wasn’t safe for a person to go up into the tree.Bushong became very sad.
Then neighbors came to help.Ed Baptiste,whose tree Hank had climbed,let Bushong sit in his backyard and called to Hank.Another neighbor donated a can of fish,hoping it might attract the cat to come down.Nearby dog owners took their pets on walks instead of letting them out in their yards to avoid further frightening Hank.Another neighbor suggested Bushong call a local business,which had a tall ladder.Unfortunately,their 42-foot ladder proved too short.
By day five,nothing had worked.That’s when another neighbor suggested creating a pulley(滑轮) system by throwing a sandbag attached to the rope to a branch higher than Hank.It will form a pulley system as the sandbag hangs down by gravity.Then raise a basket with some of the owners’ personal items.The cat may be attracted by the familiar scents and climb into the basket.

Ⅰ.SportsandHealth
Learning that the column Teenage Life of our school English newspaper is committed to casting a light on the topic of “Sports and Health”,I am more than thrilled to express my view.
The reasons why we should work out regularly are that not only does it build up our bodies,but it boosts our learning efficiency.Based on such a meaningful theme,a wide variety of activities are highly recommended.Additionally,several health professionals can be invited to give some lectures about how to do daily exercise properly after all the competitions.
Only by raising the awareness of taking exercise and participating actively can we truly enjoy the benefits it brings.I believe every participant will achieve something amazing.

Bushongdecidedtohaveatry.She filled a small basket with some of Hank’s favourite things.She called it Hank’s party pack.With the help of volunteers from Casey Trees,they used a special equipment and shot a sandbag attached to a rope high into the tree.They got lucky on the first try.The rope caught a branch directly above Hank.Pulling on the other end of the rope,they positioned Hank’s party pack just beneath him.To their great delight,he jumped in.
Carefully,theyloweredHankdown.Once Hank reached the ground,Bushong took Hank into her arms,hugging him hard.Afterward,they went inside and ate,and Hank rested in his favourite chair.Hank’s adventure taught Bushong a lesson about neighbors helping neighbors.“I can’t believe so many people went out of their way to help me with this cat,” she said.“It made me feel good that I live in a neighborhood where people would do whatever they could to get him down.It gave me hope.”

(2023江苏镇江二模)
Since I began introducing animals into my child psychotherapy(心理治疗) practice fifteen years ago,my life as a doctor has been full of wonders.Animals always help me in my work communicating with children in need.
Diane,a dark-haired five-year-old,came to me with a problem.Although she was a chatterbox(话匣子) in the house and with her family,no one had ever heard Diane say a word outside her home environment.Not one word.Diane’s parents tried to work with her to overcome her selective mutism(缄默症).Yet nothing they did seemed to make any impression on her.Diane refused to talk when she was outside her family circle.
Diane’s parents contacted me and I agreed to see her.It was a Friday afternoon.They were seated in the waiting room with my six-year-old dog,Puppy,and I walked out to greet them.Diane sat with her head down,making no move to look up or acknowledge our entrance.
Puppy went straight towards Diane.Because Diane’s head was bowed,Puppy was just three feet from Diane when the girl finally caught sight of her.Startled by the unexpected sight of a large golden dog,the girl’s eyes became huge and then her mouth curved slowly into a smile.Puppy stopped directly in front of Diane and laid her head in the girl’s lap.
I introduced myself and Puppy,but Diane didn’t respond.Instead,she began to silently pet Puppy’s head,running her hands softly over Puppy’s ears and nose.She was still obviously nervous at my office,but she was smiling and seemed to be enjoying her interaction with Puppy.I was speaking quietly with Diane’s parents when an idea hit me.
I spoke Puppy’s name quietly and gave her a hand signal to come towards me and continue back into the inner office.Puppy immediately started walking towards me.As Puppy walked away,I watched Diane’s face fall and her eyes take on a sad and disappointed look.I said,“Oh,I’m sorry.I didn’t realize you wanted Puppy to stay with you.All you have to do for her to come back is say,‘Puppy,come.’”

How time flies!It’s too bad that you have to leave soon.No words can express my gratitude to you for what you have done in our school.

(2023山东枣庄二模)
One day,Reuben,a 12-year-old boy,saw something in a shop window that set his heart racing.The price—five dollars—was beyond his means,but he went in the shop anyway.
Poorly dressed,he went in and told the shopkeeper what he wanted,adding,“I don’t have the money right now.Will you please keep it for me for some time ”
“I’ll try,” the shopkeeper smiled.“Folks around here don’t usually have money to spend on such things.It should keep for a while.”
Reuben decided to raise the five dollars by himself.Walking along a side street,he had an idea.People built their own houses in his town,using nails purchased in Hessian sacks (粗麻袋)from a local factory.The sacks were sometimes thrown away.Reuben knew he could sell them back to the factory for five cents a piece.
Every day after school,Reuben went around the town,collecting nail sacks.When school closed for the summer,he still wandered in the town,searching for his treasures.Often he was tired and hungry,but the thought of the object in the shop window kept him going.Sometimes his mother Dora would ask:“Reuben,where were you We were waiting for you to have dinner.”
“Playing,Mum.Sorry.”
Dora would look at him in his face and shake her head.Boys!
One day in spring,he counted his coins and found he needed twenty cents more.He had to find four sacks and sell them before the day ended.Late in the afternoon,just before the buyer was about to close up,Reuben arrived and sold the four sacks.With the coins in his hand,he murmured a thank you and ran away.

Mary’s husband died a few years ago from an accident.To make ends meet,she had to take on several jobs and bring up her five children alone.Fortunately,her oldest children understood her and helped to look after the younger kids.Mary always felt terrible about that,but there was nothing she could do.She dreamed of having a van to transport goods for others so that she could have another source of income.
In the mornings,Mary cleaned the houses for some families,and worked as a cashier at a supermarket the rest of the afternoon.At night,she worked at a gas station’s convenience store.Every night,she came home tired,and most of the kids had been asleep by then.
One afternoon,Mary was walking to the supermarket to start her duty when she saw an old man staring at the window of the bakery next door.The smell of fresh-baked bread permeated (弥漫) the air.However,the man merely sighed and started walking away.
Mary felt awful for some unknown reason and stopped the man.“Hey,sir.I think I’ve seen you before at the store,”she said.“Yes.I’m Hector.Nice to see you,” the old man nodded at her and started to walk away.
“Wait,do you need anything ” Mary said,smiling kindly.
“Honestly,there was a leak in my roof this month,and I had to spend my entire month’s pension (退休金) on it.I don’t have much money for desserts,” he said.“I don’t know when I’ll be able to buy some again.”

Passage1
(2023河南开封三模)
Criticism hurts even when it’s constructive. 1 Do you pretend you didn’t hear or do you argue back to defend yourself In fact,there are actually other ways of handling criticism!The next time someone gives you feedback,try doing the following things instead.
Don’treactimmediately.
Getting angry can happen really fast.Sometimes all it takes is a misplaced word or the wrong one.While it’s normal to feel this way,try to cool off and stay calm. 2 After all,you don’t want to say something you’ll end up regretting later!
Assessthecriticism.
Sometimes the best thing to do is take a quick step back and assess the criticism:who said it and why 3 Or are they just trying to be mean Taking a step back allows you to determine if perhaps the criticism has some real value you hadn’t seen before,or if it’s better to just brush off the comment.
Don’ttakeitpersonally.
Remember that sometimes people do things not to attack you personally,but to vent anger or frustration.So calm down and be as understanding as you can. 4 Meanwhile,let the other person know that their criticism was uncalled for.
5
If the criticism does actually have some truth to it,then the best thing to do is figure out how you can use it to improve.Get straight to the point and ask the person which part of your work they’d improve and how.That way you not only show you are interested in doing things better,but you are also involving the person who criticized you.
A.So how do you react
B.Use it to your advantage.
C.Polish your work carefully.
D.How about negative feedback catching us by surprise
E.Give yourself some time to process what you’ve heard before reacting.
F.Are they trying to help you,but did not communicate their point of view nicely
G.Choosing to take the right path is doing yourself a favor and not getting angry.
Passage2
(2023河南新乡三模)
Left-handed people make up around 12% of the global population.One really interesting fact that I picked up was from a scientist who believed that left-handed people tended to be more independent as a result of having to adapt to a world that is largely built for right-handed individuals. 1
Morelikelytohaveallergiesandsleepdisorders
A study found that left-handed people were 11 times more likely to suffer from allergies than right-handed folk. 2
Left-handedpeopleusetherightsideofthebrainthemost
3 meaning that the right side controls the left side of the body and the other way around.Hence there is a well-known saying “only left-handed people are in their right minds”.The right-hand side of the brain is thought to control the left side of the body and tasks to do with the arts and creativity.
Areleft-handedpeoplesmarter
4 One 2007 study “Effect of handedness on intelligence level of students” shows that lefties are more likely to have higher IQ.However,another 2010 study “The relationship between hand preference,hand performance,and general cognitive ability” suggests the exact opposite!
5
Experiments showed that when given two tasks to complete simultaneously (同时),lefties performed best.This is because right-handed people tend to solve problems by breaking them down into parts and analyzing each piece one at a time.While left-handed people tend to look at the problem as a whole and use pattern-matching to try and solve it.
A.Better at multitasking
B.Smarter than the right-handed
C.As we know,the brain is cross-wired,
D.This one varies depending on how dated your source is!
E.Here are a few more fascinating left-handed people facts!
F.Mixed-handed children are more likely to experience language issues.
G.And lefties were two and a half times more likely to suffer from sleep disorders.

HowtoOvercomeAnxiety
Anxiety is a healthy and normal emotion that everyone often feels.Anxiety may,however,develop into a mental disorder that reduces your capacity to cope with daily stress.When trying to overcome it,you should not try to get rid of your feelings of anxiety but should aim to develop your coping abilities when you do feel anxiety. 1 Here come some useful tips to develop your anti-anxiety abilities.
Examineyouranxiety
2 Do not start beating yourself up about it,or tell yourself unhelpful things such as “I will never be able to get out of this” or “I am incapable”.Understand that you can overcome this,and you will.
Identifythesourceofyouranxiety
Whether you have a panic attack or a sudden round of worry and fear,it is important to determine what is causing your anxiety.Is something in your environment the primary source 3
Determineifyourworryissolvable
If you know what your fear is,the next step is to determine if it is something you can deal with,or something that only time can manage.If your fear is largely imagination or can’t be dealt with now, 4 If your worry is something that needs to be dealt with,take steps to create a course of action.
5
If your fear is mind-consuming,take a moment to think about the honest and absolute worst thing that could happen as a result of it.Perhaps you’re getting ready to do a huge presentation,and you begin to panic.Stop and think “what is the worst that could happen ” No matter how creative your response may be,thinking critically will lead to find that should it occur,there are few endings that can’t be dealt with in a reasonable manner.
A.Consider the worst
B.Think out of the box
C.Understand and acknowledge that you are anxious.
D.make the conscious effort to put it out of your mind.
E.You can handle anxiety more easily when you are clear about what it is.
F.Having the ability to cope with the anxious thought is the key to overcoming it.
G.try whatever it takes to solve the problem because you cannot get away with it.

Howtolinkparagraphsinanessay
Composing essays is an art that you must master to score good marks.For any paragraph written,you must be able to link that with the former or the latter. 1
Read,read,read
Teachers suggest the habit of reading to enhance your quality of writing. 2 Note how the essay uses linking words and the careful selection of them.Pay special attention to the flow and the professional manner in which the essay is presented for readers.
Beawareaboutsignposting
3 but their use must also be known carefully.Before using them for your purpose,remember that a good essay should essentially rely on these words to help readers understand the logic and make it look more coherent (连贯).
4

1.A 根据空后内容“Doyoupretendyoudidn’thearordoyouarguebacktodefendyourself ”可知,下文提到的是面对批评的时候,你会有何反应。A项“Sohowdoyoureact ”引出下文的答句,与下文内容保持一致。

3.F 根据上文“whosaiditandwhy”以及下文“Oraretheyjusttryingtobemean ”可知,上下文都是和批评相关,围绕对批评进行的评估和提问。F项 “Aretheytryingtohelpyou,butdidnotcommunicatetheirpointofviewnicely ”也是提问,同时也和批评相关,符合上下文主要内容。
4.G 根据空前内容“Rememberthatsometimespeopledothingsnottoattackyoupersonally,buttoventangerorfrustration.Socalmdownandbeasunderstandingasyoucan.”可知,作者建议当我们被批评的时候,要冷静下来尽可能去理解对方。G项 “Choosingtotaketherightpathisdoingyourselfafavorandnotgettingangry.”与上文内容一致,都是建议我们要选择不生气、冷静。

Passage2
[语篇解读]本文是一篇说明文,文章主要介绍了关于左撇子的一些有趣的事情。
1.E 根据上文可知,研究发现左撇子更独立,浏览下文可知接下来文章主要讲的是左撇子的一些有趣的事情,全文是总—分的结构,由此推知,空处承上启下。E项“Hereareafewmorefascinatingleft-handedpeoplefacts!”承接上文,引出下文,符合上下文语境。
2.G 根据本段标题“Morelikelytohaveallergiesandsleepdisorders”可知,本段主要讲的是左撇子更容易有过敏和睡眠障碍。根据空前“Astudyfoundthatleft-handedpeoplewere11timesmorelikelytosufferfromallergiesthanright-handedfolk.”可知,此处讲的是左撇子更容易患过敏症,所以可以推断接下来应该讲的是睡眠障碍问题。G项“Andleftiesweretwoandahalftimesmorelikelytosufferfromsleepdisorders.”指出了左撇子更容易患有睡眠障碍,符合上下文语境。

4.D 根据本段小标题“Areleft-handedpeoplesmarter ”可知,本段主要围绕着左撇子是不是更聪明来展开。根据空后内容可知,关于左撇子的智商问题,不同日期的研究结果是不一样的。空处位于段首,应是对全段的概括,所以空处应该讲关于左撇子是不是更聪明这个问题的答案与消息来源的日期有关。D项“Thisonevariesdependingonhowdatedyoursourceis!”既回答了小标题的提问,同时也概括了全段,而且D项中的Thisone指代小标题的问题,符合上下文语境。
5.A 根据本部分内容可知,左撇子在解决问题时更倾向于整体解决问题。空处为本段小标题,所以空处应该讲的是左撇子的另外一个有趣的事实——更善于把问题看作一个整体来解决。A项“Betteratmultitasking”指出左撇子善于处理多项任务,符合上下文语境。故选A项。

Passage1
(2023福建福州二模)
It’s always exciting to begin a new job.But among the frenzy (激动) of meeting new colleagues,starting new projects,and building new skills,there can be a stressful pressure to succeed.A big part of your success is determined by how quickly you are able to digest lots of information,which can be very hard. 1
*Manage yourself
When you notice information overload,don’t ignore it and don’t panic.Say to yourself,“I’m in a new job and there is plenty to learn here.It’s okay to feel this way.” 2 Remember that emotions can help you better understand yourself and your values.
*Sort your information
3 It keeps what it needs more immediately in our short-term memory,and it mixes together information we may need to use in the future to store in our long-term memory.For the information that’s not needed,our brain acts like a garbage management,recycling,and deleting it.
* 4
Organizations often have digital knowledge management systems to store and take important information.You can do the same to reduce brain burden.I recommend creating a Word or Google document in which you write down information that your brain doesn’t need to remember or store.
*Reduce task-switching
Multitasking isn’t good for you physically or mentally and is worse for your productivity and cognition (认知). 5 You can go for longer than that,but be sure to take a break.Focused activity is less taxing than multitasking,but you can’t keep working endlessly.
A.Respond positively
B.Use technology to help
C.That problem is much easier to understand and solve.
D.Here are some methods to deal with the information overload.
E.For greater results,focus on one task for around 25 minutes.
F.Our brain is like a clever piece of equipment that “takes in information”.
G.This self-talk helps normalize the situation and makes the emotions easier to handle.
Passage2
(2023广东湛江二模)
Many people describe volunteering as merely an unpaid job where you put in the effort and get nothing in return. 1 Actually,volunteering has many benefits and you are always encouraged to volunteer your time to do what you are passionate about.
2 Volunteering time to enrich your community is a great way to broaden your perceptions of the world.It will enrich your life,familiarize you with your community,and connect you to people and ideas that will positively impact your perspective for the rest of your life.And by surrounding yourself with people who are dedicated to making the world better,you can learn so much about how the world works.
It is statistically proven that people who volunteer regularly are healthier both physically and mentally.Individuals who have volunteered throughout their lifetime typically live longer and have better psychological well-being.In addition to the health benefits,volunteering gives people a unique sense of purpose by serving those around them. 3
Besides,working alongside individuals who also care about improving their surroundings will allow you to broaden your network of friends. 4 Additionally,it will help you better understand the circumstances of other members.
Whether you’re passionate about animal rights or helping the homeless,you can find a valuable way to donate your time. 5 They can be a great place to find opportunities to give back to the place you call home.Besides,you can check websites like Volunteer-Match or Idealist for volunteer opportunities that fit your interests and abilities.

Passage3
(2023河北石家庄一模)
Too much stuff,too much to do,too much stress...These are weighing people down and breaking their spirit. 1 Here are several things to help you get started.
The first step is to sort out your possessions.To live a simple life,you need a simple living space.So take some time to tidy your living area.Focus on keeping things that you value deeply and throw away things that you don’t need any longer. 2 Finally,you will be shocked to see how few possessions you actually use in your daily life.
3 As humans we tend to think what we are used to as naturally right.However,there could be problems in the million little things that bother us as we go about our day.The best skill you can develop in your life is the ability to take a step back and look at things objectively by raising doubts about what is seemingly the way it is supposed to be.
We should always stay mindful and live with intention.If there is something in your life that you don’t love,change it!Cut out the things that aren’t serving you.You can write down what an ideal day would look like for you in five years’ time.Then outline what things you want more in your life and what things you want less. 4
Managing your time wisely counts. 5 Instead,take some time to think about whether it’s something that you are excited about attending.Be intentional with how you spend your time and take control of what you do.This is how you can guarantee yourself a flexible schedule and do everything in an unhurried way.
A.Minimalists live intentionally.
B.Complete the process in several sweeps.
C.Don’t reply “yes” to everything you’re invited to.
D.With that in hand,you have a goal to work towards.
E.From time to time you need to question about your lifestyle.
F.That’s why there is a growing interest in the minimalist lifestyle.
G.Having a flexible schedule depends on you taking control of things.

Want to lower your blood pressure,lose weight and reduce the risk of diseases Go take a walk.
Walking,as a simple activity most of us do without much thought,offers a host of vital health benefits. 1 It also contributes to improved bone strength,energy and mental health,among other things.Despite these advantages,our busy lives can be roadblocks.But there are simple ways to help you put one foot in front of the other.
Make it a habit. 2 For busy folks who might forget to walk,you’d better put it in your calendar.Laterally give yourself an appointment—schedule it as “me time”.Over time,you will make walking one of your habits.
3 To avoid predictability or boredom,get others to join you.Whether it’s a co-worker,a family member or a friend,having someone else by your side can be a big encouragement.
Make it work.Office types needn’t be confined (限制) to your desks.If circumstances allow,consider a walking meeting.Group discussions can take place during a walk.Or,when you can,walk around the building during phone calls. 4
Make use of technology.There’s no shortage of high tech fitness tools and apps designed to follow your every move.And it’s certainly fine to keep score. 5 Instead,use those that count the amount of time you’re walking ideally 10 minutes or more in a given stretch.
With these tips to help you,you are sure to benefit a lot from walking.
A.Make it a group outing.
B.Make it a family activity.
C.Repetition is the mother of routine.
D.Seeing these scores can get you inspired.
E.And instead of sending email,walk over to talk to them.
F.But don’t choose trackers that simply monitor your step numbers.
G.For example,walking just 30 minutes a day can lower your risk of cancer.

HowIImprovedMyLifein2022
By the turn of 2022,I thought I was living mindfully and rather sustainably.I had been composting(施堆肥) fruit and vegetable leftovers,and repairing my own clothes.But as life was easing back into normal,certain aspects made me feel uncomfortable,like the amount of plastic being thrown away. 1 These feelings made me realize there was still room for improvement and I was up for it throughout the year.
Take up walking.The biggest change this year for me has been to take up walking wholeheartedly.Having spent so much time indoors,I wanted to have a gentle form of exercise where I could enjoy the outdoors.I started walking.Walking connected me to the beautiful creatures that live among us. 2
Tackle plastic waste.It was only after I started composting that I realized how much organic waste even a small household could generate. 3 Luckily,our city offers a door-to-door dry waste recycling service that visits every two weeks and collects it.
4 Refills are a great solution to single-use plastics and to reducing my waste footprint.Earlier this year I switched to ordering household goods from a company that supplies refills for organic kitchen cleaners,toilet cleaners,and even washing machine powder.
Establish a morning routine.Waking up early comes with its own set of benefits,namely a morning routine.I do some morning reading before I brush,followed by my walk.Then,I cycle for 20 minutes before I shower. 5 Meanwhile,they keep my evenings free so that I can meet friends,read,or connect with family,and slowly prepare my body to rest as night approaches.
A.Use less plastics.
B.Switch to refills.
C.It helped me to reflect upon life.
D.Household waste is easy to deal with.
E.These activities prepare me for the day.
F.I needed to find a solution to the waste.
G.I was also feeling unfit and unmotivated.

One of the best ways to practice forgiveness is with the REACH method.REACH stands for Recall,Empathize (移情),Altruistic (利他的) gift,Commit and Hold. 1
Recall.The first step is to recall the wrongdoing in an objective way.The goal is not to think of the person in a negative light,but to come to a clear understanding of the wrong that was done. 2 Don’t push aside anything,especially if it makes you feel angry or upset.
Empathize.Try to understand the other person’s point of view regarding why he or she hurt you,but don’t minimize the wrong that was done.Sometimes the wrongdoing was not personal,but due to something the other person was dealing with. 3 They often don’t think clearly when they hurt others,and they just lose control.
Altruisticgift.This step is about addressing your own shortcomings.Recall a time when you treated someone unkindly and were forgiven. 4 Recognizing this helps you realize that forgiveness is an altruistic gift that you can give to others.
mit yourself to forgiveness.For instance,write about your forgiveness in a journal or a letter that you don’t send or tell a friend.
Hold.Finally,hold on to your forgiveness.This step is tough because memories of the event will often happen again.Forgiveness is not erasure (消除). 5 When bad feelings arise,remind yourself that you have forgiven and finally you want good for the offender.
A.How did it make you feel
B.Here is a look at each step.
C.Forgiveness is a character of the strong and wise.
D.How can you acquire the habit of showing kindness to others
E.Rather,it’s about changing your reaction to those awful memories.
F.Visualize the person and situation and all the feelings that come with it.
G.People who attack others are sometimes themselves in a state of fear and worry.

A major benefit of growing your own tomatoes is variety.If you visit a garden center,you will find seeds and small starter plants for yellow tomatoes,purple tomatoes,huge tomatoes,and even very small tomatoes.
1 The most important things are to give the plants plenty of water,well-draining soil,heat and light.It is best to grow tomatoes in a place that receives at least six hours of sunlight each day.Removing weeds will keep pests and diseases away while giving the plants enough nutrients to produce fruit.
Tomatoes grow best in soil with a pH level between 6.0 and 6.8.If the pH reading is lower than 6.0,you can add about 2 cups of dolomitic lime (石灰) into the soil for each plant.
If you want to grow really big tomatoes,try following these seven tips from expert growers:Select tomato seeds with names like Big Zac or Bull’s Heart. 2
Start seeds early indoors and re-plant them into larger containers several times before moving them outdoors. 3 removing leaves from the bottom one-third of plants and burying stems up to the next set of leaves.This will produce stronger plants.
Remove new flowers that develop at the top of the plant when older fruits near the bottom begin to grow. 4 Pay close attention!Observe the plants daily for pests and diseases.React quickly to prevent problems.
Remove the small growths where the plant’s stems and branches meet.This will prevent them from taking away nutrients and shading developing fruit under them.
5 instead of letting them develop into a shorter,wider shrub (灌木).
Finally,water,fertilize and weed!

Passage4
(2023安徽安庆二模)
Family meals are important and connect family members. 1 There is no need to worry about going to school,work and more.
Studies have shown family mealtime increases positive social skills,school engagement and decreases the frequency of negative behaviors. 2 Trying new food or not restricting on food is encouraged.Children who engage in family mealtime are less likely to have eating disorders.In addition,those who share frequent family meals are more likely to eat a larger number of fruits and vegetables and be less picky about food.
3 For example,we need to consider the budget,the time for meal preparation,the availability of recommended foods or supplements(补充物品)at a typical grocery store. 4 Members may have various cultural or dietary preferences.In view of this,we should make sure that the eating plan offers nutritional value for different calorie and nutritional needs—for people of different ages,different activity levels and health conditions.
Healthy eating should be a family affair,and some recommended diets will help you reach that goal by highlighting eating plans that are safe,flexible and nutritious for everyone at the table.In addition,the foods in the diets can be purchased fresh,canned or frozen. 5
A.They prefer junk food like hamburgers,fried chicken.
B.A team of health experts think family meals are difficult.
C.They can get people to relax and make their relationship closer.
D.It also offers an opportunity to set healthy eating habits for kids.
E.Thus,it is convenient and easy for families to have family meals.
F.We also considered how adaptable this diet would be for a whole family.
G.We should have a balanced diet and pay attention to what we have every day.

Passage1
(2023山东泰安二模)
HowtosetupaLibraryofThings
Instead of cluttering(乱堆放)our homes,garages and the planet,setting up a Library of Things allows neighbours to borrow and share huge,pricey goods. 1 But instead of borrowing books,local people are borrowing drills,pasta makers and guitars for an affordable fee.Here’s how to start your own:
Talktoyourneighbours
2 Do they feel their home is too cluttered Do they want to do their bit for the environment and spend less money Link into local networks and ask people to vote on a “wish list” of items they could borrow.
Findaspace
Start small in someone’s garage or local market to see what items are most popular.Then find space in buildings in urban areas with high footfall such as libraries or community hubs. 3
WhystartaLibraryofThings
We were living in a small house and needed some tools to put up shelves.We didn’t want to own the tools and hiring them was expensive! 4 Inspired by tool libraries in the US and lending libraries in Berlin,we started a small Library of Things locally and seven years later we’re running five Library of Things locations across London.
Whatotherimpactonthelocalarea
We’ve run very successful events led by borrowers such as mending meetups,sewing classes,DIY classes. 5 Borrowers have previously tested out new food businesses at the market by using our items.And for every ￡10 someone spends on borrowing,￡8 stays locally,creating local jobs and supporting the local community spaces.
A.Find out if local people need a sharing library.
B.The Library of Things has a multiplier effect locally.
C.You’ll need some money to set up your sharing library.
D.But in rural areas,a mobile sharing library could work.
E.We were also getting annoyed about waste we were creating.
F.Speak to others who have done it and are willing to share their knowledge.
G.Affordable,convenient and environmental-friendly,sharing libraries are popping up.
Passage2
(2023广东潮州二模)
My heart went out to the drama teacher I read about in a recent news item.Each parent from her class insisted that she cast their own child as Snow White.This reminded me of my seventh grade musical —“The Adventures of Tom Sawyer”.I desperately wanted to play the role of Becky,the female lead who was Tom’s girlfriend. 1
For starters,Becky had to sing numerous solos,and I couldn’t carry a tune in a bucket.I also didn’t have long blonde curls like pretty Linda Wright who won the part.
I was assigned the non-singing role of Miss Watson,the maid.I had to wear an ugly dress.And I had only one line to learn,“That’s what I say.” 2 Miss Watson was onstage in quite a few scenes,and got to repeat “That’s what I say” throughout the play.
At last,our production was put onstage.Imagine my surprise when Miss Watson made the audience laugh out loud each time I piped in with “That’s what I say”.I hadn’t known that she — or I — could be funny,or that her character was important in moving the plot along. 3
That night,I began to understand that being the star may not be any more fun than being a stand-out in a supporting role.Each person,onstage and backstage,is essential in theater.Without everyone doing their part,the play would be dull as dirt. 4 If everyone’s a star then nothing gets done.It’s all noise and chaos.
And so I believe all children should get the opportunity to play Miss Watson,to become someone they didn’t know they wanted to be. 5
A.So it is in life.
B.It was not to be.
C.It was anything but a great part.
D.My Miss Watson turned out to be a hit.
E.It took the entire cast to make a good show.
F.There was an advantage,in my opinion,though.
G.I would hope all children could be a hit in life.
Passage3
(2023山东青岛二模)
The benefits of walking are many,but deciding how many miles to cover and how much time to spend walking each day is another matter.
Studies have shown that the average American takes between 3,000 and 4,000 steps daily doing everyday things — about 1.5 to 2 miles. 1 But the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) advises most adults to aim for 10,000 steps a day or about 5 miles.And the recommendation contributes to more positive health outcomes.
2 You can measure your efforts in quantities of time instead.“As a walker,you should aim for at least 30 minutes per day,or a total of 150 minutes per week,” says Austin,a licensed psychotherapist.What’s more,if 30 minutes of walking is unrealistic for you to do all at once,then breaking it up into three short,10-minute sessions. 3
It may also be helpful to health to make walking a part of one’s daily routine.People can take the stairs instead of the elevator,park at the other end of the lot and walk a further distance to a store’s entrance when shopping. 4 Then walk the rest of the way home.All these additional steps can be acquired creatively,beyond fixed walking time.
On top of such physical benefits,walking has been shown to improve sleep and mental health including mood and self-esteem. 5 Therefore,it is free and well accepted by the majority of people.If one is ready to improve overall levels of fitness,walking ticks all the right boxes.
A.Combine walking with everyday routine.
B.They will provide the same health benefits.
C.What if counting results by miles isn’t your thing
D.Still,why not get off public transportation a stop early
E.Walking sessions should be continuous to be beneficial.
F.That amount alone has been shown to lower one’s death risk.
G.Walking requires no special equipment,gym membership or training.
Passage4
(2023湖南怀化二模)
If you want to memorize something quickly and thoroughly,repetition won’t cut it. 1 Below are some universal steps to mastering the art of recalling so that you can start memorizing a ton of data in a short amount of time.
Makepreparations.
Pay close attention to which environment you choose.For most people,this means choosing an area with few distractions.Figure out what is most beneficial to your learning so that you can get started.Next,start drinking some tea. 2
Recordwhatyou’rememorizing.
This is especially useful if you’re trying to memorize information from a lecture.Use a tape recorder to track all of the acquired facts being spoken and listen to it.If you’re trying to memorize a speech,record yourself reading the speech aloud and listen to yourself speaking.
3
Before you start trying to recall everything from memory,write and re-write the information.Now that you have everything written down in one set of notes,separate them into sections.You can use color coding to differentiate between subjects.This will help you become more familiar with what you’re trying to memorize.
Applyrepetitiontoaccumulatedmemorization.
4 As you memorize each set of the text,accumulate it by adding the new information to what you’ve just learned.This will keep everything within your short-term memory from fading.Keep doing this until you have memorized that section and you are able to recall the entire thing.Do not move on to another section until you have memorized that one completely.
Teachittosomeone(oryourself).
The most effective method for me when I was in school was to teach the information to someone else. 5 If what you’ve learned needs to be recited literally,then do this in front of someone as well in order to get a feel for what it will be like to recite the text to the intended audience.
Takeabreak.
Finally,let your mind breathe.Go for a short time without thinking about what you just learned and come back to it later on.You’ll find out what you really know,of course,and this will help you focus on the sections you might be weakest at.
A.Recall entire sections.
B.However,recalling something will.
C.Write everything down and section your notes.
D.You can lecture the knowledge to someone sitting right in front of you.
E.For each line of the text,repeat it a few times and try to recall it without looking.
F.While doing unrelated tasks,go over the information by listening to your tape recordings.
G.Many scientific studies have confirmed green tea as a natural fuel for improving memory.

2.A 根据下文“Linkintolocalnetworksandaskpeopletovoteona ‘wishlist’ ofitemstheycouldborrow.”可知,通过链接可以让人们对于可以借的物品进行投票是对A项“了解当地人是否需要共享物品馆”内容的承接,指出了解当地人是否对共享物品馆有需求这一问题的具体做法就是通过在网上让人们投票。
3.D 根据上文“Thenfindspaceinbuildingsinurbanareaswithhighfootfallsuchaslibrariesorcommunityhubs.”可知,上文介绍了在城市的哪些地方可以找到空间建立共享物品馆,与D项“但在农村地区,移动共享物品馆可以发挥作用”构成转折关系,表明在乡村地区共享物品馆的形式和城市中的情况有所不同。
