Choosing a nice mountain bike for you is easier than learning how to ride it. ____1____:
Decide how you are going to use your new mountain bike.
Are you a new rider who simply wants to travel outdoors on the weekend, weather permitting? Do you plan to test yourself on the rough roads, every day, rain or shine? Or are you going to use your new mountain bike to ride to and from school or work? ____2____, and you’re more than half way toward choosing the right mountain bike for you.
Visit your local bike shops.
Any good bike shop will stock a wide range of quality mountain bikes in all price points and sizes. Your local bike shops will carry more than one brand of bicycle. Not only will they sell you a mountain bike that suits your needs, but they will service what they sell.____3____. You’ll get one that satisfies you right away.
Don’t be bashful (羞怯的).
Tell your salesperson how you intend to use your new mountain bike, and how much you are willing to spend. Your salesperson will show you a selection of models and brands accordingly. He or she will also help you determine the right size for you.____4____.
____5____.
All good bike shops let customers take test rides. There’s a good reason for this beyond “try-before-you-buy’’ salesmanship. Since you already know your price range and find the right size, you now have to find out which brand you ride best. They want you to be happy with your purchase. After only a few lest rides from more than one bike shop, the right mountain bike will choose you.

You’re out on a hike, snacking on an apple, a banana, or some nuts. When you’re finished, all that’s left is a core, a peel, or a shell. “It’s natural,” you tell yourself, throwing it into the woods.
After all, food waste is biodegradable (可生物降解的). It’s not like you’re littering by throwing away a plastic bottle. ____6____
Food waste doesn’t break down as fast as you think
Most people know food waste is biodegradable. But fewer people are aware that orange and banana peels can take up to two years to break down in the wild, meaning they’re going to be staying in nature for a lot longer than you might think. And even if they eventually biodegrade, they can lead to a lot of serious problems.
____7____
“ Animals have a super advanced sense of smell compared to us,” says biologist Jeff Marion. All human food can attract animals. This can then cause “attraction behavior”, which refers to human actions that cause animals to overcome their natural wariness(警惕)of people. ____8____
Attraction can mean aggression
When animals are routinely attracted to humans and their food, they often become habituated to human presence. “Once an animal reaches that point, it’s essentially game over,” Marion says. That’s the origin of the phrase: A fed bear is a dead bear. ____9____ Even if a person is injured by a bear, the human usually recovers. The animal, however, is often relocated or killed to prevent further potentially deadly encounters.
____10____ You should properly store and deal with food waste. Don’t attempt to burn or bury it, as food waste is more difficult to burn than you think. Besides, if you see other food waste in nature, pick it up, even if it’s not yours. Because while negative individual impacts can have a harmful effect outdoors, positive individual impacts do just the opposite!
A.Food waste can appeal to animals.
B.Human actions result from attraction behavior.
C.Keeping your food to yourself is the best solution.
D.However, food left outdoors can have unexpected impacts.

Stay calm. Breathe deeply to control your emotions. It’s completely normal to feel your temper rise if she said something really mean. However, don’t immediately react or argue. Take slow, deep breaths to calm yourself. ____12____
Tell your mom that she hurt your feelings. Express yourself so your mom knows that you’ re hurt. It can be scary to approach your mom and discuss what she said, but it’s a big step. ____13____ In this way she’s more likely to listen to you. Make sure you tell her why you’ re upset and what you’d like to see change.
____14____ Take care of your mental well being by stopping harmful negative talk. If your mom says hurtful things, you might start to believe them unless you change your outlook. If you think something like, “I must be a bad person,” stop and tell yourself, “Actually, I’m quite a good person.” Repeat these positive thoughts and eventually, you’ll believe them.

Research has also pointed out that being sleep deprived can impact one’s memory negatively. It is also advisable to sleep for at least 7-9 hours per day. ____19____ For instance, if you usually sleep around 10 pm every day, ensure you sleep in the said time regularly.

We clearly live in an era with little patience. Entire TV series are available at once on streaming services, and burning questions are solved in seconds via a search engine. This instant satisfaction, undoubtedly, is killing our ability to wait.___21___. Here are some strategies to pick up that magic mix if you weren’t born with it.
● Visualize success
There’s no need to set a real situation where you wait in a super long grocery checkout line to test yourself. Simply visualizing it helps a lot. See yourself smiling and breathing as you wait for the line to move.___22___. For example, you could say, “it’s not bad to enjoy this magazine while waiting”. Your mind will start to process the picture as a real experience and help to set you up for future successes.
● Slow down
Racing around is not necessarily the only way to get what you want. ___23___. Most adults do not feel happy when they’re rushing, and children are even less capable of doing it with a good attitude. Instead of sweating through your routine, turn on some background music you like and move at a normal pace.
●___24___
The ability to let your mind wander, whether daydreaming or actively applying your imagination, is a skill that improves patience.___25___. Take a break and do something that could free your brain from the work that takes tons of energy. This helps you build up your staying power, so next time you might be more patient and more likely to focus on your task.
A.Learn to distract yourself
B.Add some positive words if possible
C.Therefore, we are getting more and more impatient
D.You don’t have to get the whole paper done in one go
E.We get so caught up in hurrying that we get stuck in that mode
F.But sometimes, a fast pace does improve our working efficiency

The term “growth mindset” has become something of a buzzword in our life. You can find it everywhere you look—in the seminars of motivational speakers, in the education course descriptions, and in the mission statements of companies.____26____
One of the biggest misconceptions about growth mindset is that it is the same thing as being open-minded in your beliefs. This is untrue. Being open-minded in your beliefs is often the belief on what true growth mindset is, but this is actually called “false growth mindset” in the research community.____27____What this means is that they have a fixed belief on their intelligence level, which is exactly what a fixed mindset is. They believe that they are growing, when in reality they are not.
Being open-minded to other people’s beliefs and new things is great, but it does not mean that you are actually learning anything. Furthermore, there is no way to ever have a truly complete growth mindset.____28____It is important that you accept this and embrace it, while still desiring to experience growth anyway. This is the only way you can truly foster as m’ of a growth mindset as humanly possible.
____29____Unproductive efforts that are merely done for the reward or outcome are not considered to be growth mindset. True growth mindset has nothing to do with reward or outcome. Rather, it is based entirely on the learning and growing process itself. When you are invested in a growth mindset, you are invested in the process regardless of the outcome.
____30____You cannot simply “have” a growth mindset. You have to want one, and invest in having one. Understanding the truth about growth mindset will enable you to understand exactly how this trait can assist you in life.
A.Mindset is a lot harder than “just do it”.
B.It is virtually impossible, as we are all fixed in some way or another.
C.Another false belief is that growth mindset is about rewarded efforts.
D.A second misconception is that people’s motivation comes from the process.
E.But despite its popularity, some people don’t understand what it actually means.
F.This is essentially people who have an “I already have it, and I always have” attitude.
G.Growth mindset assists people in having greater results from what they set out to accomplish.
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. ____31____
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. ____32____ 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. ____33____ They often don’t think clearly when they hurt others, and they just lose control.
Altruistic gift. This step is about addressing your own shortcomings. Recall a time when you treated someone unkindly and were forgiven. ____34____ Recognizing this helps you realize that forgiveness is an altruistic gift that you can give to others.
Commit. Commit 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). ____35____ 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.

For example, you may say, “I know it’s convenient for me to be available over email during weekends, but I can’t do that anymore.”
Avoid nervous movements or “adjustments”. These telegraph your nervousness. Constantly adjusting your clothes, for instance, is distracting a listener or someone speaking directly to you. ____43____
Become a broken record. ____44____ This often seems to be the case when dealing with customer service. For example, a customer may say to you, “This fan worked for one day and broke. I need a replacement.” You may then respond, “I’m so sorry, but our sales are final.” If the customer continues to get upset, you may calmly say, “Let me get the manager to explain it to you.”
____45____ It’s terrible to feel attacked in conversation, but there are steps you can take to turn the tables.

Set goals for yourself.
Setting and achieving goals is one way to feel accomplished and confident. Now, this doesn’t mean your goals should be anything huge like ending world hunger or saving koala bears. If you don’t achieve any goals, you’ll feel discouraged.____47____For example, my goal is to finish this article tonight. I also have a goal to go to the gym this weekend.
Change how you see yourself.
____48____If you feel like you’re not physically attractive, you’ll avoid looking in mirrors. Changing how you see yourself, realizing your self-worth, and working on your body language, eye contact, and speech will make you more confident in yourself.

Use strong words.
Good writing contains unpredictability and unexpectedness. The most powerful part of language is the verb. Thanks to a strong word, a simple sentence gets a very strong emotional charge and affects the person reading it. ____52____ Write “uses” instead of “exploits (利用)”, if you feel that the first word expresses your idea more clearly and understandably.
Read a lot.
A film flows by itself, whether you are aware of what is happening on the screen or not. ____53____ When you make a conscious effort in your reading comprehension, you become able to reflect, which is a great way to practise your writing skills. Read a variety of books—your writing and cognitive (认知的) skills increase automatically when you read a lot.
Start a diary.
A diary is not only a great tool for reflection but can also be your rough draft for developing your writing skills.

Coral reefs are the rainforests of the ocean. They exist on vast scales and are equally important havens of biodiversity. Reefs occupy 0.1% of the oceans. ____56____
Corals are useful to people. Without the protection which reefs afford from crashing waves, low-lying islands such as the Maldives would have flooded long ago, and a billion people would lose food or income. However, reefs are under threat from rising sea temperatures. Heat causes the algae (海藻) with which corals are living together to generate toxins (毒素) that force those coral to leave. ____57____
Research groups around the world are coming up with plans of action to see if that will help, such as identifying naturally heat-resistant corals and cross-breeding such corals to create a new type. ____58____ Without carbon reduction and decline in local, coral-killing pollution, even resistant corals will not survive the century.
Doubters doubt humanity will get its act together in time to make much difference.
____59____ Carbon targets are being set and ocean pollution is being dealt with. Countries that share responsibilities for reefs are starting to act together. Scientific workarounds can also be found. Natural currents can be applied to facilitate mass breeding. Sites of the greatest ecological and economical importance can be identified to maximize bang for buck.
____60____ It could serve as a blueprint for other ecosystems. Hard-core greens — those who think that all habitats should be kept unspoiled — may not approve. But when entire ecosystems are facing destruction, the cost of doing nothing is too great to bear.
A.This can cause a coral’s death.
B.But there are grounds for optimism.
C.And they host a quarter of marine species.
D.Coral’s global ecosystem services are worth up to $10trn a year.
E.This mix of natural activity and human intervention is important.
F.This research can also be brought to bear on trying to save entire ecosystems.
G.However, the assisted evolution of corals does not meet with universal enthusiasm.

Most of us look forward to the weekend as a time to relax. But as the weekend comes to an end, many of us are missing out on Sunday Funday and instead experiencing a looming sense of anxiety and even dread about the upcoming week. But even though the Sunday scaries are common, ____81____. Here’s how experts say you can ease your end-of-weekend anxiety.
1. Structure your Sunday.
“Structure can be a best friend when feeling the Sunday scaries,” says Ficken. “Instead of sitting on the couch and watching the clock, go do something that you enjoy. “You might still get whiffs of that sense of dread, but that feeling is harder to hold on to when you’re engaged in something that makes you feel good, she says.
2. ____82____.
When structuring your Sunday, try not to cram in too many chores. If you’re feeling more stress in general, it’s important to make space for relaxing activities to ground yourself. “Maybe a body scan meditation, maybe a mid-afternoon shower or bath, maybe an engaging movie or show, ” Warren says. “Whatever feels like a helpful distraction to reground from the scaries.”
3. Identify your anxiety sources.
Anxiety is a normal human experience, and one of the main ways to manage it is to identify your personal triggers. “Try to pinpoint what’s really causing you to dread the week,” Goff says. “Is it a deadline, meeting or presentation?” Even if there’s not a single reason behind your Sunday anxiety, organizing the stress you expect from the week ahead into bite-sized chunks can help make it all more manageable. “____83____.” she recommends. “One list for tasks that need to be completed immediately, another for tasks that are less urgent, and a final list for tasks that you’d like to complete at some point.”
4. Create some excitement for the week ahead.
Getting rid of the Sunday scaries isn’t just about minimizing the doom and gloom of the week ahead, either. “Having something to look forward to gives you something to think about that’s pleasing, rather than only focusing on the dread you feel.” Ficken says. It’s a form of reframing your thoughts: Instead of focusing on the awful things you expect from the week, build excitement over a coffee or lunch date with a friend you’ve been meaning to catch up with. ____84____.
5. End your Sunday with the right energy.
Make Sunday nights about doing something for yourself, to counteract the anxiety you’re feeling about Monday. Maybe that means planning some favorite foods to enjoy while watching football. Or maybe you go all in for some self-care. “This is an opportunity to give yourself proper wind-down time. ____85____, and leave the work emails for Monday morning.” Warren says.
A.they will stress you
B.they are manageable
C.Prepare yourself for it
D.Don’t forget to relax
E.Create multiple to-do lists
F.This will help improve your mood
G.Make Sunday night all about you

Take a Personality Test

You should talk about these kinds of things so that you know what to expect from each other.
____99____ Say hello and goodbye, ask them how their day was, and show interest in their life.
