（2025·上海浦东新·二模）Everyne has habits—sme gd, sme bad. While certain habits help us stay healthy, thers may cause prblems. Let’s take a clser lk at a few f them and find ut hw t break them. Nail Biting
Many peple bite their nails when they feel uneasy, wrried, r just because it’s a habit. It may seem nt h 1 , except fr making yur nails lk ugly. Hwever, when yu keep biting yur nails, yu put dirt and germs (细菌) int yur muth, which can make yu sick.
Fr centuries, peple have thught f many s 2 . In the past, they put smething bitter r sur n their fingertips. Nwadays, sme peple buy special nail plishes (指甲油) with unpleasant smells. These smells can r 3 them t stp when biting. Besides, keeping nails shrt is als a useful methd because it makes them harder t bite.
Eating quickly
Sme peple finish their fd t fast, which is bth implite and unhealthy. Accrding t experts, this habit may lead t d 4 , such as stmach pain and heart prblems.

T avid that, yu can take yur time during the meal. When yu are full, it takes arund 20 minutes fr the stmach t send signals t the brain that yu’d better nt c 5 eating. Therefre, give yur bdy enugh time t catch up and spend at least 20 minutes n each meal. Using a smartphne in bed
When the sun ges dwn, ur bdies knw it’s time t sleep and prduce a chemical t help us sleep. Hwever, the light frm screens makes the bdy release this chemical mre s 6 , s the brain keeps active even during nighttime.
T have a gd night’s sleep, yu can listen t light music r take a warm bath befre bed. These activities dn’t r 7 much deep thinking r cause excitement, which brings yu a sense f calm. Finally, if yu can’t cntrl checking yur phne, just leave it in anther rm.

We cme acrss abbreviatins (缩写形式) every day, in all kinds f places. In the US, which f curse is an abbreviatin fr the United States, peple call the space agency NASA, rather than the Natinal Aernautics and Space Administratin. Many abbreviatins are s cmmn that we say them withut thinking. Sme peple feel they make talking, reading, and writing c 1 , but thers find shrtened wrds r phrases cnfusing. What d yu think? Shuld we use abbreviatins?
Yes-they simplify life
Language is changing all the time and has been ever since humans began t speak. If it didn’t d 2 , we wuld still be saying “thine” instead f “yurs” and “thu” instead f “yu”. Imagine that! Sme abbreviatins, like “GIF” r “FBI,” are s cmmn and well-knwn that it wuld sund s 3 t say them in full. Abbreviatins can be used t make text and speech shrter, quicker, and simpler t understand. That’s u 4 if yu’re in a hurry-fr example, typing “BRB” is much faster than writing “I’ll be right back.” Abbreviatins are als a kind f cmmn language that can help peple feel cmfrtable and familiar with each ther.
N-they’re cnfusing
Prper use f abbreviatins can speed up yur reading r writing. Hwever, if abbreviatins aren’t used c 5 they can slw yu dwn rather than speed things up. Fr example, if a wrd r phrase isn’t written ut in full the first time it’s used in a piece f writing, the r 6 may have t waste time lking it up in a dictinary. Abbreviatins can als cause misunderstandings r make peple feel left ut r embarrassed. If yu dn’t knw what an abbreviatin m 7 , it’s awkward (令人尴尬的) t ask anther persn t explain it. And sure, language changes ver time, but sme changes aren’t fr the better. Saying “ty” just isn’t as plite as saying “thank yu,” is it? It just sunds lazy and, frankly, insincere.

While reading with vides helps many peple, sme express different pinins and w 6 :
Fr Zhang Bren, a 13-year-ld frm Beijing, reading is a jurney abut frming a persnal relatinship with the text, nt just learning infrmatin. “Bks can let me imagine. Althugh vides can help a lt, they can’t shw every part f a well-made stry,” he said.
Eighteen-year-ld Wang Hngjie frm Sichuan agreed, saying, “It may decrease readers’ a 7 t read independently and think deeply.”

The pwer f dreams — Use yur imaginatin t inspire yur future
It’s ften said that a persn’s thughts create their reality. This is because the way yu feel and the things yu fcus n shape hw yu see the wrld. Turning yur mind twards the life yu want can help yu realise yur a 1 .

All great ideas b 2 with a thught. The Wright brthers were tw bys fascinated with the idea f flying. They dreamed f building their wn flying machine. In 1903, they did just that, achieving the first pwered aircraft flight. That shws hw curisity and imaginatin can inspire peple t fulfill their dreams. Think abut the things that yu enjy r find fascinating. These are clues that l 3 yu t develp yur wn dreams.
It can be u 4 t think abut yur values, which are simply the things that matter t yu.

Michelle Nichlls is a psychtherapist, smene wh helps peple understand their emtins and actins. She says, “If yu enjy dnating yur time r mney t a cause, perhaps yu value being generus. Maybe kindness als cntributes t yur beliefs. The mre we pay attentin t hw ur actins make us and thers feel, the mre we understand ur values.”
Creating a visin bard is a great way t map ut ideas. Studies have shwn that visualising yur future, that is t say picturing it in yur mind, can help. Studies have als shwn that athletes wh visualised winning went n t p 5 better.
It’s imprtant t remember that yur dreams can change and things might nt wrk ut as yu wish.
It’s natural t feel d 6 when this happens. Hwever, this might be because yu can’t cntrl hw everything ges. Nichlls says this can be an pprtunity t get curius by asking yurself these questins: What gt in the way f the dream? Are there any parts f it that can be saved r that are still within reach?
“This type f flexible thinking enables ur minds t expand and stay interested in what is pssible fr the future,” she says. “It’s als a great idea t have many small dreams alng with ur ‘big sky’ dreams. We might have a back-up p 7 in case smething desn’t wrk ut. This can supprt us t stay interested in hw we can create the lives we want.”

Dear yung friends,

I lve science fictin and always imagine cking n a faraway planet. Nbdy thught that wuld happen. But then I gt a chance t wrk with Axim Space t p 5 fd fr the astrnauts n Axim Space’s Ax-1 missin. Althugh there were many difficulties and I needed t make lts f changes t make the fd gd fr space travel, I did nt give up, because I feel it i 6 fr me t send my dishes t the space.

And I believe this is a big lessn fr all f us: It desn’t matter hw impssible the d 7 is. If yu wrk hard, nthing is impssible.

In the evening, ur adventurers left San Francisc t travel t New Yrk. An hur later, it started t snw. L 1 , the snw did nt slw dwn the train. Hwever, abut nine ’clck the next mrning, the train stpped. They were amazed t see hundreds f cws crssing the rails in frnt f the train.
“I can’t believe this! This cuntry has a mdern railway, but the train must stp fr a grup f animals!” c 2 Passepartut.
The train driver tld them he had n c 3 . The cws culd damage the engine, s they had t wait until the cws mved acrss the rails.
Three hurs later, when the train went thrugh the muntains in Wyming, it stpped again. A man frm the next statin tld the driver that the bridge acrss the valley wasn’t strng enugh t s 4 the weight f the train, but anther train wuld arrive in fur hurs.
“We can’t stay here. We’ll get frzen t the bne in the snw!” shuted ne f the passengers.
“Yes, but it will take six hurs t g n ft t the next statin,” said the train driver’s assistant.
“I have an idea,” said the train driver. “If the train mves at its tp speed, the pressure n the bridge wn’t be as great as it was when it was statinary (静止的). And we can get acrss befre the bridge breaks.”
Passepartut was n 5 . The bridge culd break befre the train reached the ther side! He culd nt understand why the ther passengers seemed t think this was a gd idea.
“Isn’t there a better idea? Perhaps ” he began t ask the driver.
The driver was nt listening. “N, n, this is the best s 6 we have. The train’s leaving!” he shuted.
The driver blew the whistle and the train went back alng the rails abut tw kilmeters. Then he blew the whistle again. The train mved faster and faster as it came clser t the bridge.

Relying n a freign navigatin system is nt s 1 because anther cuntry can blck it r use it t track yur lcatin. T ensure independence, China began develping its wn navigatin system in 1994. Beidu is n 2 after the Big Dipper cnstellatin(北斗七星), which has guided peple fr centuries.
In 2020, after ver 20 years f hard wrk, Beidu cmpleted its glbal netwrk. The BDS became the
f 3 glbal navigatin system after the GPS f the United States, Galile f the Eurpean Unin and GLONASS f Russia.
The BDS is the first satellite system t prvide a glbal message cmmunicatin service.That means yu can text thers in places withut phne signal r internet. Fr example, in February 2023, a hiker gt l 4 in heavy snw in Inner Mnglia. He sent a text message using the BDS-pwered chip in his phne and was saved in time.
B 5 , the Beidu system plays an imprtant rle in disaster preventin and respnse. Rescuers (救援人员) can cmmunicate thrugh the BDS quickly and clearly. It is als h 6 in agriculture, letting farmers plant their crps better.
N matter where yu are in the wrld, the BDS can help guide yur w 7 . As f 2023, it had prvided service fr ver 120 cuntries and regins. By 2035, China will build a psitining, navigatin and timing system t prvide mre smart services.

When Al is used by the wrng peple, hwever, it culd als lead t s 2 prblems. A gd example f this is when peple use Al t make fake (虚假的) vides r phts. The prblem is that the smarter Al gets, the harder it is fr the human eye t tell what is real and what is nt. These “deepfakes” might be fun t watch if they are abut s 3 and famus peple. But if there is a fake vide f yu n the Internet ding smething really stupid, it might nt be s “funny” anymre. What’s wrse is that AI which can c 4 a persn’s appearance r vice can be used t cheat thers, and this culd be dangerus.
Will Al make big changes t the way we live, wrk, and have fun? Yes, it will, but there are still w 5 . On the ther hand, if the yung and ld can learn t wrk with Al and t use it fr the gd f the whle planet, hpefully we will enjy the a 6 it brings.

It’s a feeling yu’ve experienced befre. Yu wrry abut whether yu’ve prepared well, and abut the pssible future. Tw scientists, Ramirez and Beilck have fund that students can d better in exams if they spend ten minutes writing abut their wrries befre the exams.
In rder t make peple believe their idea, they did the experiment in the lab at first. They asked 20 cllege students t take a math test. Befre the test, half f the students sat q 1 and the ther half wrte abut their feelings n the cming test. They fund that the writing grup did m 2 better than the students wh sat silently. Their marks were 12% higher.
But did writing really wrk well in ur life? T answer it, the tw scientists ran the experiment again befre a real exam. This time, they wrked with 51 ninth-grade students. The students were r 3 t have a 10-minute writing exercise befre the exam. Half f them had t write abut their thughts n the cming exam, while the ther half had t write abut an unrelated tpic. Their final scres shwed that if the students wrte abut unrelated tpics, their scres were l 4 . If they wrte abut their wrries, their bad feelings had n influence n their marks.
But what if students d nt have a chance t write abut their fears immediately befre an exam? Mr Beilck says students alne can try it at hme r in the library and s 5 imprve their perfrmance.

He culdn’t really share it, s he sent him a picture. “I’m a little envius (羡慕),” Sctt said, “but I knew he was just making a j 1 .” Sctt feels this way because he can’t get ht, fresh bread in space.
Sctt is the fficer-in-charge f the Internatinal Space Statin (ISS). He has been living there fr a year. His twin, Mark, is als an astrnaut, but has spent the last year n the Earth.

Sctt can nly exercise n a special zer-gravity (零重力) machine and can’t g utside withut a spacesuit. And f curse, Sctt flats arund instead f walking.
The Internatinal Space University (ISU) is studying everything that happens t bth twins during the year, with the gal f finding ut hw living in space a 3 the human bdy. They already knw that astrnauts ften get headaches, their bnes get weak, and they are mre likely t get sick. Scientists wnder whether staying in space lnger makes these prblems wrse. The twins are helping them answer these questins. Based n the study results, future astrnauts can then be trained and be p 4 fr lng missins (任务) t Mars.
The twins came up with the idea after Sctt was chsen fr the ne-year missin. The brthers asked ISU hw they culd help since Mark is als an astrnaut. ISU recgnized this as a rare pprtunity which they culd h 5 affrd t miss.
Hw can scientists tell which changes in health are caused by being in space, and which wuld have happened anyway? It wuld help if they culd c 6 their astrnaut in space with a cpy f him r her n the grund. Sctt and Mark are identical, s they share the same DNA．They are als bth astrnauts, s their verall health and training is pretty s 7 .
