（2024·河南·模拟预测）Hw t Create the Perfect Spring Planter
Spring cntainers are an easy slutin fr jazzing up a clrless balcny and bring crners f any garden at this time f year. 16
Chsing the right cntainer is imprtant. Always think abut the style f yur garden. 17 They are slid pts fr spring as they dn’t blw ver in thse early spring winds. Check that the pt has a large drainage (排水) hle t ensure that the sil drains well, but always cver it with a crck (like a piece frm a brken flwer planter) s that the sil desn’t blck the hle and create prblems with drainage later dwn the line.
Chsing the right cmpst (堆肥) is the key t the success f any planting. I think it’s best t use sil-based cmpst s that the sil des nt becme t heavy r waterlgged, especially in spring when we culd have plenty f shwers. 18 And t much water in the sil will freeze, preventing the plants frm taking up the vital water.
Plant cmbinatins are imprtant, s always think abut mixes which will last as well as annual and perennial (多年生的) nes. 19 A bunch f pts frces the eye t lk arund and take in each pt and plant cmbinatin. A nice ptin is planting summer flwers like Dahlia r Lily t create a summer impact.
20 It can be achieved by using tall plants. If yu dn’t have a tall plant then yu can always raise yur pt ff the grund with ld huse bricks r decrative pt feet, r use steps in yur garden t create interest and drama.
A pleasant smell is always a lvely additin t a space as well as wildlife. Select the right plant fr yur lcatin in yur garden－sun r shade-lving.
A．I like gd, weighty planters.
B．It can still be frsty right up t May.
C．And besides, they are s easy t care fr.
D．I als like t grup pts tgether in different sizes.
E．Capitalize n thse variatins t help chse cmpanins.
F．Yu may find sme f these plants in smaller pts r even multi-packs.
G．Height is imprtant t think abut when yu’re designing yur arrangement.

Yur bdy is capable f making nly tiny adaptatins and imprvements at any ne time. Once yu've given it enugh push t make these changes, any additinal wrk yu d after that pint wn't be making yu any better. 17 This is because yu'll need lnger t recver afterwards. Besides, yu wn't feel fresh when yu start yur next sessin. Ideally, it's just enugh t d the smallest amunt f wrk required t prmte grwth in every wrkut. 18 Thus the minimum amunt f exercise brings the maximum physical gains.
19 Fr example, if a new gym-ger wants t get strnger, he might start a squat (深蹲) wrkut, which is made up f ten steps, each having five repetitins. In thery, it's a sensible way fr building strength. If he's nly attempted three steps in his previus exercise, it's far frm enugh. The furth step wuld push him past his previus limit and frce adaptatin. But the subsequent steps are meant fr mre prfessinal peple. 20

B．Instead, it'll harm yur prgress.
C．It's natural that yu may want t keep fit.

Passage8
（2024·黑龙江吉林·模拟预测）Wh can imagine life tday withut an Autmated Teller Machine (ATM)? They are available in cnsiderable numbers thrughut the wrld.
The first ATM was the brainchild f an enterprising Turkish-American inventr Luther Gerge Simjian. When the idea f an autmated banking machine struck him, he registered 20 patents befre any bank agreed t give it a trial run. It is easy t assume that the inventr f such a ppular machine was laughing all the way t the bank. 16 Within six mnths f its peratin in New Yrk in 1939, the device was remved due t lack f custmer acceptance.
It was nt until 1967, nearly 30 years later, that Barclays Bank, in a careful launch, rlled ut a self-service machine in Lndn, England, which prved successful. 17 The first cash machine relied n custmers’ use f prepaid tkens (代币) t get envelpes with a fixed amunt f cash inside.
18 The banks’ principle was seemingly custmer service. But it wuld be flish t minimize the many advantages that cash machines prvided t the banks themselves. By the late 1970s, the highest fixed cst fr the average large bank was its branches. The greatest variable cst and lss t prfits were its staff. Bank accunts swiftly recgnized that self-service peratins culd reduce bank branch staff cst by70 percent.
Experts quickly determined that public acceptance f ATMs cunted n cnvenience, simplicity, speed, security and trust. 19 Fr maximum efficiency, ATMs had t be lcated near public transprt r in a shpping mall, nt at a branch. The busier and mre crwded the lcatin, bviusly, the better. Nw, rughly 75 percent f all cash prvided by banks t their custmers cmes frm cash machines. 20 .
Public acceptance f depsits (存款) by machine was significantly slwer than custmers’ usage f ATMs fr withdrawals. In general, it seems that custmers smetimes still prefer and trust an ver-the-cunter transactin (交易) fr depsits.
A．Lcatin, in particular, was a key factr.
B．His cash machine, hwever, didn’t prve durable.
C．The device was relatively primitive, at least by tday’s standards.
D．Hwever, cash machines psed sme interesting, unanswered questins.
E．An interesting factr was the issue f bi-statistics fr custmer identificatin.
F．Devices riginally dismissed by the public are nw recgnized as essential institutins.
G．Sn afterwards, many ther banks became admittedly champins f the cash machine.

（2024·河南·模拟预测）Hw t Create the Perfect Spring Planter
Spring cntainers are an easy slutin fr jazzing up a clrless balcny and bring crners f any garden at this time f year. 16
Chsing the right cntainer is imprtant. Always think abut the style f yur garden. 17 They are slid pts fr spring as they dn’t blw ver in thse early spring winds. Check that the pt has a large drainage (排水) hle t ensure that the sil drains well, but always cver it with a crck (like a piece frm a brken flwer planter) s that the sil desn’t blck the hle and create prblems with drainage later dwn the line.
Chsing the right cmpst (堆肥) is the key t the success f any planting. I think it’s best t use sil-based cmpst s that the sil des nt becme t heavy r waterlgged, especially in spring when we culd have plenty f shwers. 18 And t much water in the sil will freeze, preventing the plants frm taking up the vital water.

Yur bdy is capable f making nly tiny adaptatins and imprvements at any ne time. Once yu've given it enugh push t make these changes, any additinal wrk yu d after that pint wn't be making yu any better. 17 This is because yu'll need lnger t recver afterwards.

19 Fr example, if a new gym-ger wants t get strnger, he might start a squat (深蹲) wrkut, which is made up f ten steps, each having five repetitins. In thery, it's a sensible way fr building strength. If he's nly attempted three steps in his previus exercise, it's far frm enugh. The furth step wuld push him past his previus limit and frce adaptatin.

Passage8
（2024·黑龙江吉林·模拟预测）Wh can imagine life tday withut an Autmated Teller Machine (ATM)? They are available in cnsiderable numbers thrughut the wrld.
The first ATM was the brainchild f an enterprising Turkish-American inventr Luther Gerge Simjian. When the idea f an autmated banking machine struck him, he registered 20 patents befre any bank agreed t give it a trial run. It is easy t assume that the inventr f such a ppular machine was laughing all the way t the bank. 16 Within six mnths f its peratin in New Yrk in 1939, the device was remved due t lack f custmer acceptance.
It was nt until 1967, nearly 30 years later, that Barclays Bank, in a careful launch, rlled ut a self-service machine in Lndn, England, which prved successful. 17 The first cash machine relied n custmers’ use f prepaid tkens (代币) t get envelpes with a fixed amunt f cash inside.
18 The banks’ principle was seemingly custmer service. But it wuld be flish t minimize the many advantages that cash machines prvided t the banks themselves. By the late 1970s, the highest fixed cst fr the average large bank was its branches. The greatest variable cst and lss t prfits were its staff. Bank accunts swiftly recgnized that self-service peratins culd reduce bank branch staff cst by70 percent.
Experts quickly determined that public acceptance f ATMs cunted n cnvenience, simplicity, speed, security and trust. 19 Fr maximum efficiency, ATMs had t be lcated near public transprt r in a shpping mall, nt at a branch. The busier and mre crwded the lcatin, bviusly, the better. Nw, rughly 75 percent f all cash prvided by banks t their custmers cmes frm cash machines. 20 .
Public acceptance f depsits (存款) by machine was significantly slwer than custmers’ usage f ATMs fr withdrawals. In general, it seems that custmers smetimes still prefer and trust an ver-the-cunter transactin (交易) fr depsits.
A．Lcatin, in particular, was a key factr.
B．His cash machine, hwever, didn’t prve durable.
C．The device was relatively primitive, at least by tday’s standards.
D．Hwever, cash machines psed sme interesting, unanswered questins.
E．An interesting factr was the issue f bi-statistics fr custmer identificatin.
F．Devices riginally dismissed by the public are nw recgnized as essential institutins.
G．Sn afterwards, many ther banks became admittedly champins f the cash machine.
