Coffee and tea are two of the most popular drinks in the world. 1 . Here are reasons why you should
think about switching from coffee to tea.
Lower caffeine, fewer side effects
Tea has less caffeine than coffee. 2 . A cup of tea usually has 20 to 60 milligrams of caffeine, while
coffee has 80 to 100 milligrams. If you’re sensitive to caffeine, tea is a better choice. Plus, herbal teas like
chamomile have no caffeine and can help you relax.
A powerhouse of antioxidants(抗氧化剂)
Tea is packed with antioxidants. 3 . They can help protect your body from diseases like heart
problems and cancer. Green tea has a lot of a special antioxidant called EGCG, which is great for your cells and can
even help you age more slowly. Black tea has other good chemicals that help keep your heart healthy.
4
Tea has something special called L-theanine. This is an amino acid(氨基酸)that can make you feel calm and
focused. It’s different from coffee because it doesn’t make you feel nervous. L-theanine can help reduce anxiety
and make you feel good. It’s also good for your brain. It can help you think better, feel less stressed, and even sleep
better.
Good for your body
Drinking tea can be a great way to get healthy chemicals into your body. Just like eating fruits and
vegetables, drinking tea can give you the good stuff your body needs. 5
Switching from coffee to tea can be a simple way to improve your health and feel better every day. Give tea
a try and see how it makes you feel.
A．Help you stay calm
B．Good for your physical health
C．Both are good for you, but tea might be even better
D．These are special plant chemicals that are good for your health
E．Whichever you like better, keep in mind that too much will be harmful
F．This means it won’t make you too excited or keep you awake at night
G．If you don’t like eating vegetables, tea can be a good way to get those healthy chemicals

Tips on How to Balance School Work with Your Hobbies
Many students find it challenging to balance school work with their personal hobbies since they have a lot of
responsibilities to carry on their shoulders. Now I would like to suggest how you can prioritize both of them.
Create a routine
Develop a routine that involves self-care habits such as relaxation, exercise, or hobbies.
1
. This
routine will surely help you to shift your mind from school stress. And it will provide you with a healthy lifestyle.
Set boundaries and take breaks
2
. I know school-related tasks are very important for your future, but what about your health?
Don’t stress out by doing a lot of work. After studying enough, consistently do self-care activities on breaks, for
instance, eye exercises and journaling.
3
Maintaining a well-organized schedule is essential for balancing hobbies, schooling, and personal health. To
keep track of tasks, due dates, and personal objectives, use planners or digital calendars. This time monitoring
guarantees that you set aside time for hobbies and self-care and avoid last-minute hurry.
Practice mindfulness often
Mindfulness is very important for students since it helps their minds be peaceful and more focused.
4
.In order to happily balance academics and mentality, being calm, peaceful, and fully aware is necessary.
Know when to adjust
Most of the time, after they have planned, students tend to follow exactly the to-do list.
5
.
However, when they do something that is not in the plan or it doesn’t turn out according to the plan, they have no
motivation at all to continue doing it. While some days can call for more self-work to deal with stress, other days
might call for more focus on schooling. Be adaptable and change your plans as necessary.
A．It is excellent sometimes
B．Avoid social media influence
C．Manage your time effectively
D．It’s usually practiced in a sitting position
E．Stop being study-mad and avoid overworking
F．Moreover, it helps a person stay in the present
G．And set a specific time to do them right after school

Have you ever woken up at midnight with upsetting thoughts? Maybe you argued with your partner. Perhaps
you are worrying about an interview. These are common in our life.
1
And thus we may lose sleep and
have trouble concentrating. The following methods are helpful.
2
This method has-the benefit of revealing the temporary nature of your upsetting thoughts. It can also help to
make it easier to let them go. There are many mindfulness practices that might help with this. For example, a
simple breath meditation may work.
Try to move outside.
Physical exercise can be helpful.
3
Walking in the woods can reduce rumination (沉思) more than
walking along a road for the same amount of time. If we go out walking, it may help to keep our attention on our
surroundings and prevent troubling thoughts from arising.
Stop feeding the fire and redirect your attention.
Don’t overthink about the same things; look for better ones. We can take a break from social media and
practice gratitude for the good in our lives. We can also take action with like-minded people.
4
Talk to a trusted person or maybe a therapist.
We can turn to others for help. Whether they do it with humor or by offering wisdom, sometimes getting an
outsider’s perspective can help us a lot.
5
If we don’t have such kind of people, seeing a therapist might
be our best option.
A．Embrace our negative thoughts.
B．Learn to practice mindful awareness.
C．Being outside in nature is one of the best ways.
D．They will keep us locked into negative thinking patterns.
E．We need to give ourselves some space and not assume the worst.
F．These can help reduce our worry while pointing us in a right direction.
G．We should try to find the right person who can listen well and offer empathy.

How To Be a Bolder, More Confident Person
Want to boost your self-confidence, feel more empowered, and take charge of your life?
1
By embracing a
bold mindset, you will unlock greater confidence, resilience, and control over your life. Here are some valuable tips
to help you discover your passions and strengths, while overcoming your fears.
Stop hesitating and take action to build your self-confidence.
Is there something you’ve been wanting or trying to do, but can’t seem to get the courage up?
2
. Taking the
first small step towards trying something new can give you the energy to keep going. Whenever you’ re feeling
unsure in interactions with others, swallow your pride and make the first move!
Do the unexpected and get out of your comfort zone.
Doing something new and unexpected might make you feel uneasy or afraid.
3
. Instead, embrace the
newness of a skill, trust your ability to adapt and don’t be afraid to be yourself. Remember, taking a risk like
learning a new skill isn’t the same as making impulsive (冲动的) decisions. To avoid regrets, make choices and
take actions reflecting your values. Pretend you’ re already bold.
Your bold inspiration doesn’t have to be real. You could even think of a character from a movie or book
who’s daring and brave. Then, imagine their boldness in your life. If you already know someone bold, imagine how
they’d act. Studies show your mood can be affected by your behavior.
4
5
While there’s power in taking on something new or trying to get what you want, there’s also the chance you
may fail. Embrace the failure. It’s not the opposite of success, it’s a necessary component. Without the risk of
failure, you don’t have the opportunity for success.
Being bold lets you oxford, embrace, and take charge of your life.
A．Accept any outcome.
B．Don’t give in to those feelings!
C．Take small steps to reach your goals.
D．Stop thinking and actually do something.
E．“Fake it until you make it” has some truth to it!
F．Part of being bold involves staying calm and focused.
G．Developing a bold personality is a skill you can practice.

techniques can help ease this mental health condition.
Talk to someone
It may sound simple, but it’s effective. Staying connected can go a long way toward managing your
depression. 1 . According to research, increased social connection and feeling connected can help decrease
depressive symptoms.
Explore and challenge your thoughts
Depression can surface through a lot of negative thoughts, but you can learn how to challenge them with
know-how and effort. This doesn’t mean just telling yourself everything’s fine. 2 . For instance, you might
remind yourself that you are loved and then give specific examples to support this new thought pattern.
Engage in rewarding activities
Engaging in rewarding activities can help you stay active and out of depression. This can involve scheduled
activities of mental health strategies. For example, you can start your day with positive self-talk and end it by
writing down something you are grateful for. 3 .
4
When you’re struggling with depression, it can be difficult to be grateful. However, being appreciative has
mental health benefits. Focusing on gratitude can bring you an increased sense of well-being, and help you
transform your understanding of belongings and abilities into sources of gratitude.
Learn to accept it
Sometimes people feel forced to apply a label they didn’t want, but it doesn’t need to be part of an identity.
Struggling to accept its existence, only brings more pain. 5 . Depression is one of the mind and body’s ways
of saying you need to make a change, so accepting it will help facilitate that change.
A．Practice gratitude.
B．Focus on positive moments daily.
C．This reminds you that you’re not alone.
D．Join a fitness club to stay physically active.

Whether they’re a member of your household or a visitor around the holidays, difficult family members can
take a toll on your mental and emotional well-being.
1
Express your needs using “I” statements.
Starting a statement with “you”tends to sound more like an accusation, while “T” statements allow the focus
to be on your own thoughts and feelings. A difficult family member might be more responsive if you speak to them
using an “T” statement. For instance, you could say, “
2
”
3
Draw some clear lines in the sand to help make your potential interactions more comfortable and
manageable. This might involve limiting the amount of time you spend together, refusing to discuss certain topics,
or refusing to be spoken to in a certain way. When something is violated, say something like: “I don’t like it when
you use pet names with me. Please use my name when we’re speaking.”
Apply conflict resolution strategies when necessary.
Instead of approaching arguments and tense conversations from an “only one of us can be right” perspective,
focus on finding peaceful and respectful ways to resolve the conflict, like saying “We’ll have to agree to disagree
on this. ”
4
Some family members are a magnet for conflict, and some fights just aren’t worth picking.
Avoid sensitive content in conversation.
5
Thus, it’s best to keep them in the “do not discuss” zone. If you’re worried about uncomfortable
topics being brought up, try to join the conversation with someone who shares your viewpoints so you don’t feel
isolated.
A．Create clear boundaries with relatives.
B．It also helps to choose your battles wisely.
C．Restrict the time you spend with relatives.
D．You need to stop poking your nose into my personal life.
E．I feel a bit judged when assumptions are made about my personal life.
F．Topics like politics and religion definitely have the potential to get people annoyed.
G．Thankfully, simple strategies can go a long way when you're dealing with negative relatives.

Travel Inspires Us
Travel is not just about seeing new places; it’s about seeing the world through new eyes. It’s an opportunity
to learn, to grow and to be inspired. This enlightening journey begins the moment we step out of our comfort zones.
Travel teaches us about diversity. As we explore different cultures, we learn to appreciate the uniqueness of
each society. It’s fascinating to see how people from various backgrounds live, work and interact.
1
Through this experience, we can realize that there are many ways to live a fulfilling life.
Travel slows us down, allowing us to appreciate the present moment.
2
But when we’re immersed
in a new environment, we’re forced to slow down and savor each experience. This mindfulness can lead to a greater
appreciation for life’s small joys.
3
It’s easy to get caught up in our own little worlds, but when we travel, we’re exposed to new
ideas and ways of thinking. This exposure can challenge our beliefs and encourage us to consider alternative
viewpoints. It’s a powerful way to expand our minds and make us become more open-minded.
Travel provides a source of inspiration. Whether it’s the beauty of nature or the grand historical sites, travel
offers countless opportunities to be inspired.
4
In essence, travel is a powerful experience that enriches our lives in countless ways.
5
Through
travel, we gain a deeper appreciation for the diversity of life, the broadening of our perspectives and the inspiration
that fuels our passions.
A．Travel broadens our perspectives.
B．Travel encourages us to challenge ourselves.
C．In our fast-paced lives, it’s easy to overlook the simple pleasures.
D．This understanding fosters empathy and breaks down stereotypes.
E．It can encourage us to learn to adapt to new systems and different customs.
F．These experiences can spark creativity and motivate us to pursue our passions.
G．It’s a journey that helps us gain new insights into ourselves and the world around us.

The connection we build with our pets can sometimes be hard to understand from the outside. When a friend
comes over, they might find it odd the way we talk to our dog or think it is silly to put his water bowl in the most
inconvenient spot in the house.
1
We pet owners know our cats and dogs offer more than just company — they give us comfort and a deep
sense of emotional support. In a world that often feels busy, pets are good at keeping us in the present moment.
They’re always there to greet us at the door, sleep next to us, and play.
2
Just a simple act of petting them
can reduce stress and increase the “happiness hormone”.
In challenging times, such as the loss of a loved one, a bad breakup or a rough time at work, we may feel
down.
3
Whether they lick your tears away, offer comfort or even make a mess in the house that
inevitably keeps your mind off things, their presence can help keep you emotionally engaged and present.
4
After adopting one, you’re suddenly responsible for keeping a small creature alive. This might
sound a bit dramatic, we know, but let’s be real; that’s how most pet owners feel at first! However, once you get
used to the idea, you realize you can feed another little being confidently. That is something really beneficial for pet
owners.
In our fast-paced world, having a pet can be a true anchor for building a balanced lifestyle. Our furry friends
help us create and stick to a routine.
5
Moreover, caring for pets develops responsibility and structure,
teaching owners to prioritize self-care alongside work or academic demands.
A．Well, that’s how he likes it!
B．Having a pet comes with responsibilities.
C．However, a pet can make all the difference.
D．Owning a pet can aid in boosting your confidence.
E．Most pet owners find their presence incredibly pleasant.
F．For example, a dog’s daily walk enforces physical activity.
G．G. Setting aside time for our pet helps to cultivate a close bond.

Honor your special milestones
Birthdays are a major occasion to celebrate. But there is also joy in recognizing life’s smaller moments, such
as mastering a new skill, or achieving a personal best in your favorite sport.
1
Here’s how to get started.
First, think about what you’d like to celebrate. It can be a recent milestone, or you can start planning to
celebrate a special moment that’s coming up in the future.
2
For example, maybe you did better than you
expected on a difficult test. Perhaps you tried something brand-new, or participating in the county spelling bee.
Think about who helped you achieve your milestone or supported you along the way.
3
Or you
could share a photo of your recent success to make them smile. If you decide to have a celebration, talk to your
family about inviting close relatives to share in the festivities with you. If they live far away, you can set up a video
call with them.
4
Your celebration can be as simple as doing something together with your family, like having a
favorite dinner at home or at a restaurant, or going to the movies. Something simple — like “Way to go!” — covers
almost any achievement. Or you can get creative or silly. If you’re celebrating getting your braces ( 牙箍) off, for
instance, you can write “Brace yourself for a new smile!” Celebrate the highlights of your life, big and small, with
these ideas.
Pay it forward. One of the best ways to appreciate what you’ve accomplished is to give back. If you have
achieved a personal goal or completed a big project, you can use the knowledge you’ve gained to help others. If
you passed a recent test, you could offer to help a classmate by tutoring them.
5
A．Decide how you’ll celebrate.
B．Be nice to someone important to you.
C．You could send them a note to thank them.
D．Reflect on any achievements in and out of school.
E．Be sure to take plenty of pictures to remember this day.
F．You could also use skills you’ve learned to contribute to a community project.
G．Celebrating these moments boosts self-confidence and increases your sense of wellbeing.

The healing power of thinking of others
Volunteering can greatly improve both emotional and physical happiness. While self-care is important,
helping others can also be a powerful path to healing(疗愈).
1
Research highlights its benefits. A 2013
analysis of 40 studies found that volunteering reduces depression and boosts life satisfaction. Additionally,
volunteers at food banks often report feeling less lonely, while a US study found they are more likely to experience
calmness, purpose, and peace.
Beyond emotional benefits, volunteering also improves physical health. A Carnegie Mellon University study
revealed that dedicating 200 hours a year to volunteering lowers the risk of high blood pressure by 40%.
2
It is linked to a lower risk of heart attacks and early death. This connection highlights the close link between
emotional and physical happiness.
For some, volunteering can even provide a helpful escape during emotional struggles. Therapist Mel Riley
shares her own experience, noting that supporting others helped her manage her depression. Riley believes that
focusing on others can provide a break from intense feelings.
3
4
Animal lovers, environmental supporters, or those who enjoy socializing can all find meaningful
ways to contribute. Volunteering can be formal, like helping charities, or informal, such as assisting a neighbor or
joining online support groups. Even sharing your knowledge in areas like healthy eating or gardening can be
meaningful.
Riley emphasizes that volunteering should feel rewarding rather than burdensome. Studies suggest
dedicating just two hours a week is enough to gain mental health benefits.
5
Riley warns that frequent tears,
anxiety, or feelings of hopelessness may signal burnout. In such cases, stepping back is important, and it’s perfectly
okay to say no if you’re struggling.
A．This shift creates space for healing.
B．However, it’s crucial to maintain balance.
C．It’s vital for both sides’ growth and happiness.
D．Helping’s joy has been recognized since the 1980s.
E．Studies show volunteering with a strong purpose benefits health.
F．Volunteering aids emotional healing and boosts the increase of wealth.
G．Finding the right volunteer role depends on personal interests and skills.

Uncovering your strengths is important for career growth and personal satisfaction.
1
By
understanding your natural abilities, you position yourself to excel (擅长) in roles that fit with your talents.
Identifying core interests.
Understanding your core interests is key to discovering your strengths and advancing your career. These
interests often guide your professional journey, leading you towards roles that resonate with your passions.
2
Think about moments when you felt most engaged and energized at work or in personal projects — these can
reveal your inner motivations. Self-reflection is a powerful tool in this process.
Reflecting on past achievements.
Reviewing your past achievements can help identify your core strengths and capabilities. These
achievements, whether large or small, often highlight patterns in your behavior and areas where you naturally
excel.
3
Testing abilities in new roles.
Exploring new roles allows you to test your abilities and uncover strengths you may not have realized.
4
For example, volunteering for cross-departmental projects can reveal adaptability and problem-solving
skills. Job rotations (轮换) or temporary assignments within your organization are also effective for testing your
abilities. These experiences let you experiment with different roles without committing to a permanent change,
helping you refine skills and discover new interests in a practical setting.
Matching your strengths to your career goals.
5
This ensures that your daily tasks and long-term objectives are in sync (同步), enhancing both
satisfaction and performance. Focusing on roles that use your strengths can lead to greater job success.
A．Reflect on activities or topics that consistently catch your attention.
B．After you know your advantages, connect them with your career goals.
C．Knowing what you’re good at helps you choose your career path better.
D．Colleagues can offer different views that help you understand yourself better.
E．Taking on opportunities outside your comfort zone can uncover hidden talents.
F．Exploring different fields can be exciting, but it can also be challenging and stressful.
G．By analyzing these successes, you can better understand the skills that contributed to them.

Many students feel like they simply do not have strong memory skills. Fortunately, though, anyone can train
and develop their memorizing abilities. Here are some simple tips to try.
Link it. Connect the information you are trying to memorize to something that you already know. Material
in isolation (孤立) is more difficult to remember than material that is connected to other concepts. For example, say
you are trying to memorize the fact that water at sea level boils at 212 degrees Fahrenheit, and 212 happens to be
the first three digits of your best friend’s phone number.
1
It’s a crazy link, but it can help that fact to
stick.
Self-test. Test yourself every so often by actively recalling the information you are trying to study. Make
sure to actively test yourself.
2
Often, students think they remember material just because it is familiar to
them when they reread it. Instead, ask yourself questions and force yourself to remember it without looking at the
answer or material.
3
You can then go back to one of the memory tricks to help yourself memorize it.
4
For a concept to move from your temporary working memory to your long-term memory, two
things need to happen: the concept should be memorable and it should be repeated. Use repetition to firmly plant
information in your memory. Repetition techniques can involve things like flash cards and self-testing. Space out
your studying and repetition over several days.
5
Spacing it out and gradually extending the times in
between can help us become more certain of our mastery and lock the concepts into place.
A．Use distributed practice.
B．Repetition is never enough.
C．Do not simply reread notes or a textbook.
D．This repetition is powerful for long-term memory.
E．Then increase the time in between each study session.
F．This will help you identify areas you are struggling with.
G．Link these two by imagining throwing your phone into a boiling ocean.

discover numerous ways to ensure you’re mentally and emotionally ready for some of your life’s most unique and
exciting years. Therefore, let’s explore some things you can do now to prepare for your adventures.
2
.
Learning how to study properly is crucial. Many students find that high school study methods don’t work in
college. So adjusting study habits early prepares you for academic challenges. For example, active studying, like
explaining concepts aloud or solving practice problems, ensures deeper understanding.
3
. And you have
to learn to spread your study sessions throughout the semester, avoid distractions by choosing a quiet study space,
and reward yourself after completing tasks, etc.
Participate in extracurricular activities
Universities, colleges, and other learning institutions appreciate seeing extracurricular activities on your
application. These experiences may also build important skills needed to succeed in college and beyond. For
instance, joining a debate club improves critical thinking, while volunteering builds empathy.
4
.
Improve time management
Balancing academics and personal life requires strong time management.

using tools like calendars or apps, and setting realistic daily goals. Additionally, break tasks into smaller steps to
avoid feeling overwhelmed.

Many of us start a “health kick” or “organization drive”, seeking to change all our behaviors at once.
1
A typical reason why New Year’s resolutions don’t work is that people try to change too many things at once.
Changing even a small habit requires time and effort, and trying to change several things at once often results in
failure.
Taking one step at a time may involve breaking a habit into smaller parts and addressing each part
individually.
2
Starting small can be effective; for example, if you want to drink more water, begin with one
glass daily at the same time. After a few days, gradually increase your intake instead of attempting to drink eight
glasses right away.
3
Instead of trying to reinvent yourself, focus on adjusting the aspects you’re unhappy with. Aiming
for “good enough” in your habits boosts your chances of success, while striving for “perfect” can lead to failure.
For instance, giving up cigarettes might be achievable, but expecting to cut out all treats, drink three liters of water
daily, and go to the gym five times a week is unrealistic.
Include small rewards into your plan for achieving milestones. This could include a treat (not chocolate if
you’re trying to lose weight), a small gift, or time spent enjoying a movie or a hot bath.
4
Finally, seek support from trusted individuals and replace bad habits with better ones.
5
By focusing
on gradual changes and realistic goals, you can improve your chances of long-term success.
A．Invite support.
B．Be realistic about your goals.
C．However, this rarely leads to success.
D．Find ways to remind yourself why you are doing this.
E．Celebrate your achievements, but avoid self-criticism.
F．It’s essential to create a clear plan outlining what you will do and when.
G．Finding alternative activities can make it easier to break unwanted behaviors.

Find people who are willing to trade
Bartering is not a solo endeavor and you need to find folks who are willing to engage.
4
. Think
neighbors, friends, coworkers and groups you’re already a part of. Then reach out. The goal is simply to open the

Which is lighter in color: a grass lawn or a pine tree? The lawn, right? And how did you decide? Almost
certainly by “seeing” them both in your mind, and comparing the two shades of green.
But not everyone can do that. Using this question, research revealed aphantasia — an inability to form
mental images — affecting 2-5% of the population. While most people use mental imagery to help them remember,
aphantasiacs have to use other techniques.
1
2
Be observant about sounds, textures, tastes, and particularly smells. Practice bringing these to
mind, and use them whenever you can to connect with your memories.
Another powerful method involves connecting memories to emotional experiences.
3
How did
you feel when you visited the place, watched the film, or read the book that you’re trying to recall?
Think logically.
4
For instance, by analyzing a series of events, you might determine when
something occurred. Similarly, retracing your steps and piecing through your day can help you figure out where
you lost a possession.
Additionally, try to create muscle memory. If you’ve done something many times, it may be easier to stop
trying to remember it, and just let it happen.
5
These are strategies that many people with aphantasia rely on, instead of image clues, and we can all learn
something from them.
A．Start by observing everything around you.
B．These are the ways we can all learn and recall information.
C．One effective approach is to actively engage senses beyond vision.
D．To improve memory, focus on physical exercise as well as mental effort.

The more I travel, the more I feel like I understand the world, the people in it, and, often, myself. Getting off
the beaten path, meeting locals, and visiting incredible sites have made my life better. 1 While I go into a
lot of depth in my new book on budget travel, I want to share some tips with you.
Pack light. Write down a list of essentials, cut it in half, and then only pack that! Take half the clothes you
think you will need. 2 It’s OK to wear the same T-shirt a few days in a row.
Stay in hostels. They are cheap, they organize events, you’ll meet a lot of people, and they are just tons of
fun! Hostelworld is the best hostel-accommodation website out there, with the largest inventory (房源), best search
interface, and highest availability. 3
Take free walking tours. 4 You will love taking walking tours when you travel. You will pass the
time and get to learn so much about where you are. They have exploded in popularity in the last few years and you
can find them in nearly any major city in the world.
5 This is probably one of the most underused travel tips in the world. Tourism information centers
know about everything going on in town. They can point you to free activities, special events happening during
your stay, and everything in between. They are also staffed by locals who can tell you all the ins and outs of their
city.
A．I use it for all my hostel bookings.
B．You won’t need as much as you think.
C．Always visit the local tourism information center.
D．Hostels are usually located in the heart of the city.
E．It’s good to know a few practical tips to make sure you travel safely.
F．And if you welcome such experiences, it will make your life better, too.
G．Besides being free, these tours will give you a good idea of the city you are visiting.

Have you noticed how trying too hard often backfires (适得其反)? Forcing sleep only makes you restless.
Overthinking blocks progress and performance. The more you force something to happen, the more resistance you
face. It’s like paddling (用桨划船) upstream when the current could carry you if you’d just let it.
1
This
idea of stepping back to move forward isn’t new. It’s rooted in Taoism, an ancient Chinese philosophy that teaches
about the Dao, the hidden force that guides everything. Fighting against it creates struggle, but flowing with it
brings freedom.
The Taoist principle of wu wei supports effortless action by flowing with natural forces instead of resisting
them. It invites you to let go of control and align (与……一致) with the natural flow of life.
2
Here are
three ways that can help you.
Relax your mind. Lean into practices like tai chi, yoga, and breathing exercises that can calm busy minds
and allow you to observe your thoughts without judgment. In this stillness, you stop fighting the current and start
flowing with it.
3
Be creative. Think about it: The best musicians don’t force their art. They become it. Look at creativity as a
chance to experiment and play.
4
Dive into the joy of creating. You’ll find a place of expansion and
imagination that helps develop that free flowing energy of wu wei.
5
The universe doesn’t rush, and neither should you. The sun rises and sets. Seasons take their time
to naturally unfold. Trust this rhythm and accept changes with grace. Living wu wei isn’t about not trying. It’s
about doing less of what blocks your flow.
A．Develop patience.
B．Stop trying to control every thought.
C．Nothing falls into place when you stop forcing it.
D．What if you stopped fighting and trusted the flow?
E．Accept the process instead of focusing on the results.
F．But how do you bring this effortless action into your daily routine?
G．You develop a sense of peace and alignment with the natural order.

Community gardens have emerged as a valuable solution for urban areas where access to fresh fruits and
vegetables is limited. They provide residents with a shared space to grow their own produce, promoting health and
community spirit.
1
Starting a community garden may seem demanding, but following these steps can
make the process manageable and rewarding.
2
Look for accessible spaces near water sources with decent soil or space for containers. Empty
lots are often ideal, as long as you secure permission from the owner. Check local laws to ensure approval and plan
for costs like renting. Having a well-located plot sets the foundation for a successful community garden.
Building a community garden requires teamwork, so involving the neighborhood is crucial. Reach out to
potential participants, organize discussion sessions, and raise funds through crowdsourcing.
3
Establishing a sense of ownership among members creates enthusiasm and ensures long-term commitment.
Plan the garden layout based on the number and size of plots. Choose crops that suit the local climate, and
meet community needs, ensuring year-round productivity.
4
Divide the space into plots, set up
composting (堆肥) areas, and enhance the site with benches (长椅) or storage to make it user-friendly and visually
appealing.
Sustaining a community garden requires effort and teamwork. Set clear rules for care tasks and promote
involvement through events like community meals. Share extra harvests with those in need to extend the garden’s
impact. Additionally, you can create a farm-to-table experience by using produce grown in the garden to make
shared meals. Regular care keeps the garden productive and attractive.
5
A．First of all, determine your budget.
B．The first step is identifying a suitable plot of land.
C．Once the planning is complete, start building the garden.
D．As a result, the garden brings lasting benefits to the community.
E．These gardens not only supply fresh food but also strengthen social bonds.

In today’s fast-paced world, it’s easy to operate on autopilot—moving from one task to the next without truly
experiencing the moment.
1
Here are four practical approaches to developing daily awareness:
Start your day with meditation (冥想)
How you start your day matters. Instead of rushing, spend a few morning moments trying a short morning
meditation—closing your eyes, taking a deep breath and achieving internal calmness. Maintaining your inner peace
for just a while every day will help sharpen self-awareness.
2
Adopt mindful movement
Include physical activities that promote mindfulness, such as yoga, tai chi, or even a simple walk in nature.
3
Devote 10-15 minutes daily to such activities, and you will find your body and mind are connected for
balance and relaxation. Yoga with Adriene offers great online sessions, and a short, mindful walk outside also
helps.
Practice mindful eating
Eating is one of the most pleasurable experiences, and doing it mindfully can turn eating into a far richer
experience, satisfying not just the need for nutrition, but more subtle senses and needs.
4
Chew slowly and
enjoy the sensory experience. Mindful.org has a useful Mindful Eating guide.
Reflect with a gratitude journal
5
Keep a gratitude journal by writing down three things that went well or brought joy. This practice
shifts focus to life’s positives, developing a mindset of appreciation and mindfulness. Visit Gratefulness.org for
inspiration.
By integrating these habits, you’ll cultivate deeper presence, reduce stress, and unlock a more intentional,
fulfilling life. Start small, stay consistent, and watch mindfulness transform your daily routine.
A．End your day reflecting on life’s positives.
B．Set aside specific time for more meaningful things.
C．Spend 20 minutes per meal, free from digital distractions.
D．These practices balance body and mind, arousing daily awareness.
E．Guided apps like Headspace or Calm can help beginners establish this calming routine.
F．Constant digital connectivity overwhelms us, making us unable to think independently.
G．However, developing daily awareness can engage us in the present and enrich our experiences.

A successful interview isn’t just about having the right qualifications — it’s about demonstrating soft skills
that prove you’re a great fit for the team. For practical job interview tips, remember that employers look for more
than just ability and experience.
1
While staying relaxed isn’t always easy, using the following few soft
skills can make the process smoother.
• Channel your nerves into enthusiasm.
2
Rather than hiding your nerves, experts suggest using
them to show excitement. Demonstrating energy and enthusiasm can make you memorable and convey passion for
the role, setting you apart from candidates who seem too calm or detached.
• Imagine yourself succeeding in the interview. Visualizing success can help you stay focused and make
better decisions.
3
Picturing each step — from the handshake to answering tough questions — can make
the experience feel more familiar. This exercise makes the actual experience feel more familiar, helping you stay
calm.
•
4
Job interviews often include difficult questions, like why you’re leaving your current job.
Avoiding negative comments about past employers, which can leave the wrong impression. To keep the
conversation positive, you can also consider shifting the focus to the interviewer. You can mention how the
experience helped you appreciate a strong company culture and ask them what they enjoy most about their
workplace.
• Embrace openness. Showing genuineness in a job interview can leave a positive impression. If you stumble
(结巴) on an answer, be honest and ask to start over. A simple acknowledgment — like saying, “I’m sorry, can I try
that again? I was nervous and didn’t express myself the way I intended.”
5
By practicing the above skills, you’ll present yourself as a confident, composed, and engaging candidate.
A．Keep your answers positive.

Earlier this month, OpenAI revealed a new version in training mode that is “good at creative writing.”
Though its release date is unclear, as a longtime freshman composition instructor, I’m already aware of the problem
of A．I.-assisted cheating in writing classes.
1
After all, students have been unvoluntarily exposed to an
overwhelming amount of promotion around A．I., and have seen news that makes false claims about how powerful
A．I. tools are.
But a creative writing student using A．I.? In a memoir (传记) writing class? What are you saying about
your life if even you can’t be bothered to think about it.
Having written two memoirs, I know the challenges and pleasures of this work, and I want my students to
experience those challenges, too.
2
Rather, it is about defining who you are, in part by revisiting
particularly unpleasant experiences. This process makes the author more fully alive.
3
Using a machine that gathers information online and creates a fake version of you is not just
cheating; it degrades our memories and humanity. Yet it’s not the students who concern me most, but a culture that
undervalues writing and reading so much that some students think skipping them is a reasonable choice.
The only thing under my control as a teacher is what I do in my classroom.
4
Whether they write
best-sellers or just scribble in journals, doing the work with their full selves is what truly matters.
Writing can be a way to preserve ourselves and even a form of resistance.

A．I’ll teach students to write honestly.
B．I can even sympathize, to an extent.
C．This may feel like a battle already lost.
D．Outsourcing your life story to AI is disheartening.
E．The act of writing a memoir is not just about saying “Look at me”.
F．That fighting spirit is our greatest strength and exists only within us.
G．It is upsetting to see AI creating fake stories, but maybe it’s just new storytelling.

1.Most of us haven’t been taught how to apologize, and our effortś might tend to be harmful. “When the apology is
a bad one, it puts a crack in the very foundation of a relationship and can even enid it,” Lerner says.
1
Below aré some ways given by Lerner to offer an apology that can help heal, rather than cause additional harm.
Drop your defenses. “Our automatic set point is to listen defensively,” Lerner explains.“We listen for what
we don’t agree with.
2
” She suggests keeping an open mind and listening with an explicit intention to
understand the other person. “Try to wrap your brain around the. essence of what that hurt party needs you to get.”
Less is more.
3
“If you’ve forgotten to return your friend’s Tupperware, you don’t have to overdo it
as if you’ve run over her kitten.” Over-apologizing is not only irritating — it disrupts the flow of the conversation
and shifts the focus away from the person who needs to be attended to, Lerner explains. “You’ ve taken control of
the hurt party’ s emotionality and made the apology about you.”
4
Your attention when apologizing should be on the impact of your words or deeds,not on your
intention. Zero in on the situation at hand and cater to the needs of the person who is hurting. “It’s not the two
words ‘I’m sorry’ that heal the injury,” Lerner explains. “The hurt party wants to know that we really get it, that we
validate their feelings and care.”
An apology isn’t the only chance you ever get to address the underlying issue.
5
It creates an
opening. When done with attention and care, it can be a channel for greater understanding and deeper connection.
A．Stay focused.
B．Make sure of your intention.
C．And that’s why it is critical to get it right.
D．Thus, we can defend ourselves and correct the facts.
E．Keep your apology short and mind the exaggerated behavior.
F．That is because it is normal for people to have different views.
G．It might also allow you to establish the ground for future communication.
2.Life can be hard, so you want to relax and have fun when you don’t have work or study responsibilities.
Then how do you spend your free time.
1
For me, the truest test of whether or not I enjoyed my own
company came when I decided to do a brave thing: eat alone in a restaurant.
The first few times I ate out alone, I felt uncomfortable. I didn’t know where to look, or what to do with my
hands. I even focused on how I took a bite and chewed. To solve the problem, I began taking a newspaper or book
on my lone restaurant outings.
2
I gradually felt at home and eventually began to strike up conversations
with the people working in the places I frequented.
The next big step was to go to the movies alone.
3
Once the lights were dark, I was able to lose
myself in the plot on the big screen. Thus another barrier crossed.
Years ago, I left my marriage, which was the biggest and bravest step of all. Living alone made me scared.
At the age of 50, I was literally on my own for the first time in my life. I was homesick and lost for several months.
4
Since there was nobody but myself to factor into each decision, I could do whatever I enjoyed. I decorated
my apartment strictly to my own tastes and also learned many new things to keep myself busy. I discovered a new
version of me: curious, creative and capable.
If you don’t quite know what to do when alone, do little things at first.
5
Pick up what you once
loved but have put on hold for whatever reason. Learn a new skill you’ve been wanting to master. Be in the
moment, be who you are and do what you love to do when alone. All in all, learn to enjoy your own company.
A．It turned out to help greatly.
B．The pain almost drove me crazy.
C．Then move on to bigger, braver things.
D．This one went better than I had expected.
E．But as time went on, I felt a freedom like no other.
F．In what way you enjoy your own company is up to you.
G．Some people hate being alone while others enjoy time to themselves.
3.Hardcore hiking is typically defined as a long-distance, vigorous (充满活力的) walk which is usually done
across the countryside and trails. For many seasoned hikers, there is a level of skill involved.
1
. Soft hiking,
in contrast, is much more leisurely and can be for anyone. It encourages people to go at their own pace, reconnect
with the joy of walking in nature, and remove any performance pressure.
Soft hiking is considered to be a more accessible approach to fitness.
2
. Therefore, more people can
experience the joys of being outdoors, including those who may be new to hiking, families with children, or
individuals with limited mobility.
3
. By slowing down and focusing on the beauty, history and geology of the area, we can achieve a
deeper connection with nature and promote relaxation. When we’re feeling relaxed, our bodies function better and
our immune system is able to work as it should.
So, how can we experience the pure joy of spending time in nature? The best way to get started is to simply
go for a stroll (闲逛).
4
, like the countryside, coastal walks or a woodland trail. No pressure, and no
expectations to reach a summit or a certain number of miles. And remember to pick out clothes that are comfortable
to move around in.
With its gentle approach, soft hiking is a wonderful activity to implement into our routine. It doesn’t have to
be about counting calories burned or setting new records for distance traveled. Instead, it lets each of us define
success for ourselves.
5
.
A．We are all capable hikers
B．It is gaining popularity worldwide
C．But hiking doesn’t have to be hard
D．It can be adapted to suit different groups of people
E．Walking slowly and mindfully affects people’s wellbeing

G．Soft hiking could be even more affordable than moderate or vigorous hiking
4.It’s no secret that life makes us anxious. According to the National Institute of Mental Health, an estimated
19% of U.S. adults have been diagnosed with an anxiety disorder.
1
A lack of in-person connection and
interaction, time in nature and engagement in our communities is creating “digital anxiety.”
At the root of most anxiety disorders is a difficulty coping with uncertainty. It is manifested in symptoms of
excessive worry and anxiety. Those with generalized anxiety disorder might worry about their own safety or that of
a loved one.
2
Digital anxiety, on the other hand, is rooted in our use of technology and social media
habits. One example is the stress caused by negative interactions from a social media post. There may be feelings
of inadequacy, hopelessness and social isolation.
People may also experience digital anxiety when separated from their phones. They might feel disconnected
and worry about not knowing of possible threats like war or a natural catastrophe.
3
Faced with digital anxiety, how can we reduce it? Here are a few recommendations to get you started.
4
Record how often you’re engaged with screens and technology. Note the time of day you’re most
likely to log on and how you feel before and after.
Accept that anxiety is a part of living.
5
Make a daily commitment to practice radical acceptance
— the ability to accept reality without judgment. That doesn’t mean you approve of negative events and situations.
Rather, you accept these circumstances as things you might not be able to change at this moment — or ever.
A．Limit your social media and screen time.
B．They focus their attention on specific goals.
C．Be honest with yourself about your digital habits.
D．Life is unpredictable and often beyond your control.
E．Sometimes they miss out on a social event or lose touch with friends.
F．Or they may have persistent fears that something bad is about to happen.
G．Studies also show that too much time on social media is linked to greater anxiety.

From installing a heat pump to lowering your heating, there are many ways to improve your home’s energy use or
reduce wasted heat. Switching from a gas or oil heating system to an electric heat pump can reduce emissions. In
addition, improving insulation in your walls, ceilings, and windows helps by reducing the energy needed to heat
your home, saving money and lowering emissions. Experts say draught-proofing is one of the cheapest and most
effective ways to do this.
Eat Less Red Meat and Reduce Food Waste
The global food system contributes about a quarter to a third of all greenhouse gas emissions. Different foods have
different environmental impacts depending on how they are produced.
3
. Besides, reducing food waste,
such as by making smaller portions and saving leftovers for later at home, can make a big difference.
Drive for Less Emissions
4
. Living without a car is one of the best ways to reduce your transportation emissions, though this isn’t
realistic for everyone. Small actions, like walking, cycling, or carpooling, can still have an impact. If you can,
switching to an electric car reduces emissions compared to petrol cars.
Think Before You Buy
A single pair of jeans can produce over 30kg of carbon dioxide during its lifetime.
5
. Repairing
damaged clothes or buying second-hand can also help lower waste. Many brands now offer clothing rentals to
reduce environmental impact.
A．Changes in Your Home.
B．Install an Electric Heat Pump in Your Home.
C．Even small changes can make a difference in our everyday choices.
D．Transport is responsible for about a quarter of all energy-related emissions.
E．Buying clothes made from organic materials can help reduce the environmental impact.
F．Reducing red meat, such as beef and lamb, helps lower emissions due to their high carbon footprints.
G．Buying high-quality, durable products instead of constantly buying new clothes can help reduce your carbon
footprint.
1.【2022 年新高考全国Ⅰ 卷】Fitness Magazine recently ran an article titled “Five Reasons to Thank Your

My partner posted her request on the notice board of a local park. Her notice included what kind of training
she wanted to do, how many days a week and how many hours she wanted to spend on each session, and her age. It
also listed her favorite sports and activities, and provided her phone number. ___19___
You and your partner will probably have different skills. ___20___ Over time, both of you will benefit —

can be made easier if you learn to practice three simple techniques.
___16___ When you are first trying to think of ideas for an essay, put your pen to your paper and write
nonstop for ten or fifteen minutes without letting your pen leave the paper. Stay loose and free. ___17___ Don’t
worry about grammar or spelling. Even though this technique won’t work for everyone, it helps many people get a
good store of ideas to draw on.
The next technique is to write your draft rapidly without worrying about being perfect. ___18___ Yet, by
learning to live with imperfection, you will save yourself headaches and a wastepaper basket full of crumpled (弄
皱) paper. Think of your first draft as a path cut out of the jungle—as part of an exploration, not as a complete
highway.
The third technique is to try printing out a triple—spaced (三倍行距) copy to allow space for revision.
___19___ As a result, these writers never get in the habit of crossing out chunks (大块) of their draft and writing
revisions in the blank space. After you have revised your draft until it is too messy to work from anymore, you can
enter your changes into your word processor. ___20___ The resulting blank space invites you to revise.

Christmas wish lists. They were polite requests for the latest game or toy. As the children got older, they would give
Santa some hints(提示)on where to buy their presents. ____11____
Those letters taught my children a valuable lesson about writing: It has a purpose. Sometimes our purpose is to
achieve something;other times it may be to entertain, inform, or persuade. ____12____ And when writing doesn’t
seem to have any purpose or get any kind of meaningful response, then it can be hard to get excited about doing it.
Christmas is a great time of year for children to communicate with others through writing. When children
write for real audiences and real purposes, they can learn to choose their words accordingly. ____13____ You
write “Dear Santa” because you don’t know him personally and you want to show him respect.

You keep hearing about recycling, right? But it doesn't end with bottles, cans, and paper. Clothing takes a huge
amount of natural resources（资源）to make, and buying loads of new clothing（or throwing out old clothing）is
not healthy for the environment. So what to do with all those perfectly-good-but-you're-maybe-a-little-sick-of-them
clothes piled on your bedroom floor? ____16____. It's the best way to get rid of your used clothes, score clothes

much fun is had. It's really easy to do! Here are a few pointers.

●Put different types of clothing on different surfaces in the room.____19____. Place a few mirrors around
your room so people can see how things look when they try them on. One of the ground rules of the swap should be
that everyone must try on the clothes before they take them—things always look different when you put them on.

forget to put out some cookies and fruits. Remember, it's a party!

other health problems behind the scenes．

can lead to less pain．
Many people enjoy relaxing music in the evening prior to going to bed．____37____While the validity of the

researchers，listening to just 30 minutes of soft music every day may help with healthy blood sugar levels，
through the lowering of stress and anxiety．

13.【2021 年浙江卷1 月】You run into the grocery store to pick up one bottle of water. You get what you
need, head to the front, and choose the line that looks fastest.
You chose wrong. People who you swear got in other lines long after you are already checked out and off to
the parking lot. 11
．
It turns out, it's just math working against you; chances are, the other line really is faster.
Grocery stores try to have enough employees at checkout to get all their customers through with minimum
delay. 12
．
Any small interruption - a price check, a chatty customer-can have downstream effects, holding up an
entire line.
If there are three lines in the store, delays will happen randomly at different registers. Think about the
probability:13
．
So it's not just in your mind: Another line probably is moving faster.
Researchers have a good way to deal with this problem. Make all customers stand in one long, snaking line-
called a serpentine line - and serve each person at the front with the next available register. 14
．
This is what they
do at most banks and fast-food restaurants. With a serpentine line, a long delay at one register won't unfairly punish
the people who lined up behind it. Instead, it will slow down everyone a little bit but speed up checkout overall.
15
．
It takes many registers to keep one line moving quickly, and some stores can't afford the space or
manpower. So wherever your next wait may be: Good luck.
A．Why does this always seem to happen to you?
B．So why don't most places encourage serpentine lines?
C．Some of the may have stood in a queue for almost an hour.
D．The chances of your line being the fastest are only one in three.
E.How high is the probability that you are in the fastest waiting line?
F.With three registers, this method is much faster than the traditional approach.
G.But sometimes, as on a Sunday afternoon, the system gets particularly busy.

We all want it… to accept and love ourselves. But at times it seems too difficult and too far out of reach. 36.
Here’s a handful of ways that will set you in the right direction.
●37. Do not follow the people who make you feel not-good-enough. Why do you follow them? Are you
hoping that eventually you will feel empowered because your life is better than theirs? Know that your life is your
own;you are the only you in this world.
●Forgive yourself for mistakes that you have made. We are often ashamed of our shortcomings, our mistakes
and our failures. 38. You will make mistakes, time and time again. Rather than getting caught up in how you
could have done better, why not offer yourself a compassionate (有同情心) response? ＂That didn’t go as planned.
But, I tried my best.＂

before weakness. List all of your accomplishments and achievements. You have a job, earned your degree, and you
got out of bed today. 39.

Remember, even world champion athletes practice their skills on a consistent basis.
20. It’s rare to hear someone say, “I wish that speaker had spoken longer. “On the other hand, you probably
can’t count the times that you’ve thought, “I’m glad that talk is over. It seemed to go on forever! “So surprise your
audience. Always make your presentation just a bit shorter than anticipated. It’s better to leave your listeners
wishing for more than shifting restlessly in their seats waiting for your speech finally to end.

19.【2020 年北京卷】Many people think that positive thinking is mostly about keeping one's head in the
sand and ignoring daily problems, trying to look optimistic. In reality it has more to do with the way an individual
talks to himself. Self-talk is a constant stream of thoughts of a person, who is often unaware and uncertain of some
events, phenomena, people, or even the person himself.____46____Meanwhile, positive thinking can help to stop
negative self-talks and start to form a positive view on an issue. People who regularly practise positive thinking
tend to solve problems more effectively. They are less exposed to stress caused by external factors. They tend to
believe in themselves and in what they do.
____47____People who think positively demonstrate increased life spans, lower rates of depression and
anxiety, better physical and psychological health, reduced risks of death from heart problems. Positive thinking also
contributes to one's ability to deal with problems and hardships.____48____For example, researchers have found
that in the case of a crisis accompanied by strong emotions, such as a natural disaster, positive thinking can provide
a sort of buffer against depression and anxiety. Resilient people who think positively tend to treat every problem as
a challenge, a chance for improvement of any kind, or as an opportunity for personal growth. Pessimists, on the
contrary, tend to perceive problems as a source of additional stress.____49____
In conclusion, positive thinking is a powerful and effective tool for dealing with hard times and improving the
quality of one's life. It doesn't have anything to do with ignorant optimism when an individual refuses to notice a
problem.____50____
Thinking in a positive, self-encouraging way brings about many benefits to one's physical and mental health.
A. It doesn't cause any severe emotional discomfort, either.
B. Negative self-talk damages self-confidence and decreases self-respect.

and we need to drink lots of water to be healthy. When we are thirsty we just go to the kitchen and fill a glass with
clean water.
___31___For example, farmers, who produce the food we eat, use water to make the plants grow. When we
turn on a light or switch on a TV or a computer we use energy and we need water to produce this energy.
The truth is that we are lucky enough to have clean water whenever we want，but this is not the case for
many people around the world.___32___That's around one in 10 people in the world. If we drink dirty water，we

kilometres every day to get water.___33___Therefore，they don't have time to learn how to read or write and don't
get an education.
