Students wh are able t understand and manage their emtins mre effectively, a skill knwn as emtinal intelligence, d better at schl than their less skilled classmates, accrding t recent research.
Carlyn MacCann f Sydney University, authr f the study, analyzed (分析) data frm ver 160 studies, including ver 42,000 students frm 27 cuntries. “Althugh we knw that high intelligence and a cnscientius nature are necessary fr academic success, ur research highlights a third factr, emtinal intelligence,” said MacCann. “Simply being smart and putting in a lt f effrt may nt be enugh. Students must als be able t understand and manage their emtins.”
MacCann suggests that students with higher emtinal intelligence may be better able t manage anxiety, bredm, disappintment, and ther emtins that can damage academic perfrmance. “Als, these students may be better able t manage the scial wrld arund them, frming better relatinships with teachers, classmates, and family,” she said.
Additinally, the skills required fr emtinal intelligence may be the same with the skills required t master certain subjects. As an example, MacCann mentined a student named Kelly, wh is gd at math and science but lw in emtinal intelligence. She has difficulty seeing when thers are wrried r sad, and she des nt knw what t d t cntrl her wn feelings. As a result, Kelly des nt recgnize that her best friend, Lucia, is having a bad day, making Lucia mad at her. Lucia then des nt help Kelly (as she usually des) t analyze the characters in plays in English literature class, a class in which Kelly ften struggles.
“Kelly feels ashamed that she can’t d the wrk that ther students seem t find easy. She is als upset that Lucia is mad at her. She can’t shake these feelings, and she is nt able t cncentrate n her math prblems in the next class,” said MacCann. “Because f her lw emtin management ability, Kelly cannt get back frm her emtins.”
28. What des the underlined wrd “cnscientius” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Hard-wrking. B. Self-aware.
C. Ambitius. D. Brave.
29. What is the functin f paragraph 3?
A. T define emtinal intelligence in detail.
B. T explain emtinal intelligence’s impacts.
C. T prvide an example f students’ struggles.
D. T shw the link between persnality and success.
30. Why des Kelly ften struggle in English literature class?
A. The cntent f the literature is t difficult.
B. The literature knwledge is unfamiliar t her.
C. Her scial issues fail her in class discussin.
D. She finds it hard t understand characters’ emtins.
31. What d we knw abut emtinal intelligence frm Kelly’s stry?
A. It is less effective in science subjects.
B. It is imprtant fr students’ success.
C. It prevents emtins frm affecting students.
D. It seems mre imprtant than strng friendships.
D
Nwadays, scial running is ppular in cities glbally. Running clubs, which attracted cmpetitive runners at first, have spread wrldwide and nw appeal t a brader audience fr supprt, mtivatin, and friendship.
The rise f scial media and fitness apps has changed running clubs. Online platfrms (平台) enable runners t cnnect, rganize events, and track prgress, making running mre accessible. Running with thers helps maintain a cnversatinal pace and build a cmmunity.
Danielle Burnett, leader f a running club, recently hsted her first grup run. “At the start, peple were chatting just a bit,” she says. “Then, when we came back, it felt like cnnectins had been made. Peple were already talking abut meeting up fr runs later that week.”
Rachel Gldberg, a marriage and family expert, has nticed that peple are much mre willing t pen up during exercise. “If yu are near smebdy but nt necessarily facing them eye t eye, yu might just feel less threatened,” she says, “This can lead t deeper cnversatins and strnger cnnectins and als a great way t break dwn scial anxiety.” One reasn fr this may be that running stimulates (刺激) endrphins, the bdy’s natural feel-gd chemicals. “They can make yu feel less stressed, and everything arund yu starts t seem mre psitive,” says Gldberg.
Additinally, keeping a cnversatinal pace while running with friends ffers unique physical benefits, t. Cnversatinal running is ften assciated with Zne 2 training, which includes wrking ut at an intensity (强度) f 60 t 70 percent f yur maximum heart rate. “Ding lw-intensity exercise builds patience s yu’ll be able t g lnger and further,” says Kristen, a running cach. “Yu’re als ging t recver faster and reduce yur risk f injuries.”
32. What has cntributed t the changes f running clubs?
A. The decrease in the number f runners.
B. The develpment f digital platfrms.
C. The effrts f running club leaders.
D. The ppularity f running in rural areas.
33. What des Gldberg explain abut scial running?
A. Its starting pint.B. Its appeal fr grup runs.
C. Its impact n physical fitness.D. Its rle in scial cnnectin.
34. What advantage des Zne 2 training mainly ffer?
A. It develps the patience f runners.
B. It imprves the speed f running.
C. It increases the intensity f exercise.
D. It prmtes the quick grwth f muscles.

C. Scial Running: Mre Than Just a Wrkut
D. Running Clubs: Mre Than a gathering place

Hi all, I have the chance t live in a village, near big frests. In the summer, when the weather is gd, it’s always a pleasure t pick up mushrms. They are tasty, and less expensive than the nes yu can buy in stres. In this prgram, we will intrduce sme cautins fr a nice mushrm picking sessin. First, yu will need a basket t put the mushrms. Dn’t use a plastic bag, as yu will break tender mushrms. Next, if yu plan t g in an unknwn place, I really advise taking a mbile phne and sme water. Als, try t nt be alne. Yu dn’t want t be lst alne in the wds, right? Then, if yu are like me a “trained” mushrm hunter, yu shuld already knw the gd spts. It’s always gd t chse a nice frest,with a gd tree cver. I dn’t have the magical way t find a gd place, just ask lcal peple. Once yu are in the frest, the mushrms are typically int wet and darker spts. If yu are lucky, yu may find nice mushrms! When picking, make sure yu knw the kind f mushrms. In my case, I nly take thse with a very recgnizable shape. Avid brightly clred nes. Remember, dn’t pull them, but cut them with a knife. Yu will leave the internal rts in the flr. It will allw the mushrm t grw up again. Leave thse with smaller caps in place. Think abut the ther peple, take nly what yu need.Traffic Safety


The next day, I sat at my desk in frnt f my frightening math test.

As I walked thrugh the schl gate, I had a smile n my face.
