The following is what happens if you’re the next to be killed. First, your brain sends a series of messages to your sweat glands telling them to increase sweat production.

For anyone trying to lose weight, one of the first indulgences (嗜好) to get cut from their diet is alcohol. After all, a good-size glass of wine contains more than 150 calories. ____16____ New findings from researchers reveal that women who drink moderately (适量) are less likely to gain weight than those who don’t.

Researchers conducted a study of women’s drinking habits and weight gain. The researchers asked the women about their alcohol intake and measured each volunteer’s weight. ____17____ The researchers also considered some potential factors, such as age, smoking, physical activity and other lifestyle. ____18____

“What is your problem?” So simple and yet so difficult to answer, that essential question is what I ask my high school engineering students when they begin the study of inventions. Our students are often provided with the problem, or spoon-fed with a solution, or end up checking their answers against those in the back of the book.___36___

The concept is the “invention design process” or “engineering design process”.___37___These steps include identifying a practical problem, developing potential solutions and ultimately designing something that proves they can improve the lives of beneficiaries. In short, we are talking about real problems that affect real people.

Students will often say, “___38___” My reply is similar: “I don’t either, but it is going to be a lot of fun seeing you find one.” At this point in the process, students begin to realize that not only do they need to identify a problem, but they have to clearly understand it. There is no room for loosely pieced together projects without thought or true purpose.

For example, each term my class invents devices to assist local fire and police departments. At the end of the unit, we invite police officers and firefighters to a showcase who then provide students with feedback (反馈) on the devices.___39___As a result, the students will also give their projects serious attention.

Inventing is a skill and every student can develop that skill. It may be a cliché (陈词滥调), but it’s true — kids are natural inventors. And once they are taught the skills of how to invent, there is no stopping them. As a teacher, I can’t help but ask, “___40___”

A．I don’t know the answer to the problem.

B．I don’t know what problem I should solve.

C．Now I am introducing them to a foreign concept.

D．It involves students in completing a series of steps.

E．How could you not give the problem the attention it deserves?

F．How can I not want to send more problem-solvers into the world?

G．They do not have time to waste on projects that don’t take their work seriously.

Have you ever wished you didn’t have to wake up early and go all the way to school? For 700,000 American kids, this wish comes true.___36___This kind of learning has different names: online learning or distance learning. Regardless of what it is called, this idea may create an impression of a lonely kid reading pages of information on a computer screen rather than from a book or an image of another kid spending the day playing video games instead of learning mathematics or reading a book. Where online education is concerned, both of these are false! Actually, online learning simply means learning differently.

___37___Flexibility is the main advantage. Students can attend school wherever and whenever they desire. Homework can be turned in from anywhere the student has Internet access. Additionally, many online schools will allow students to work at their own pace.

Another advantage of online schooling is with the variety of courses. Most online schools teach the same basic classes like English, math, science, and history.___38___However, traditional schools are often unable to offer these types of classes if there are not enough students.

Online schools also have different types of learning tools for kids to use. For example, many online schools have special Web sites where only students registered in online classes can watch videos, see lessons presented, or chat with teachers and other students. Some online schools have live class times where students can call and talk with the teacher directly. ___39___

Computer technology is amazing, and we use computers for chatting with our friends, listening to music, and playing games.___40___Since 2012, at least 38 states either have had their own online schools or made rules for students attending them. It looks like online schools are here to stay, but only you can decide if this type of learning is right for you.

B．Of course, there are some disadvantages of going to school online.

C．Almost every part of our lives is affected by it, and school is no exception.

E．Other online schools even have online clubs where kids can talk about their hobbies.

F．Some online schools also offer specialized classes in subjects such as space science, French, or zoology.

People are taught how to speak, but good sentence structure and a wide range of vocabulary words won’t always lead to being understood or understanding others._______16_______

The good news is that it’s never too late to learn how to communicate more effectively. The first step is to realize you’ re having communication issues._______17_______The following is a list of the top three signs that you need to learn healthier communication skills.

You have the same fights over and over.

Your fights are about the same topic again and again. If this is happening, it means you don’t yet have the skills to resolve conflicts._______18_______The fight may end, but it’s only a matter of time before you argue about the same thing again. When you learn how to resolve conflicts, issues don’t pile up or become baggage that weighs down your relationship.

_______19_______

You don’t want to fight so you try not to bring up subjects that lead only to pain and disconnection. The problem is that avoiding them leads to pain and disconnection anyway. Unless you learn how to have hard conversations productively, you will get more and more disconnected until your relationship is in danger of ending.

You regularly feel misunderstood or unheard.

No matter how hard you try, you don’t feel understood. Perhaps your partner has expressed the same feeling.Over time the disconnected feeling does damage to your relationship. It’s important to learn how to communicate in a better way, so that both you and the other person feel heard and understood._______20_______To be heard, your partner will need to learn how to listen. For you, to be able to hear your partner, you will need to do the same.

A．You avoid discussing certain topics.

B．You argue with your partners about some issues.

C．If you can’t resolve issues, they will continue to show up.

D．This requires more than just speaking to your partner or vice versa.

G．Effective communication requires much more than being able to speak.

8.【2022-2023学年河北省石家庄市二中高三期中考试】

Gratitude is more than just saying “thank you” to someone who has helped us or given us a gift. ___16___ And this positive emotion can be good for our emotional and physical health, as well as the health of our relationships.

One reason for this is that gratitude stops us from thinking about negative emotions. Writing a “thank you” letter, for example, shifts our attention so that we focus on positive emotions. Even if we don’t share our writing with anyone, the act of completing the exercise alone makes us happier and more satisfied with life. And this gets better with time. As we are essentially training our brain to be more in tune with noticing the positive, after several weeks or months, this becomes more intuitive(直觉的). ___17___

 ___18___ Studies prove gratitude can improve sleep quality, better eating habits, and reduced inflammation(炎症) in people who have had heart problems.

Gratitude is clearly good for us, but is it also good for the people in our lives? ___19___ When shared, spoken or written gratitude is about feeling valued and helping others feel valued too.

A．So why not do so?

G．It’s a deeper appreciation for someone or something making us feel positive.

9.【广东省华南师范大学附属中学2022-2023学年高三】

Many of our memory systems are driven by one single, powerful urge: to survive. We seem to have an inborn instinct(本能) to remember routes, so we can navigate our local environments safely. ___16___Ever since we lived in groups, us humans have needed to know who’s “part of the group”, and who isn’t, as a vital part of staying safe. And we’re excellent at remembering things that might put our wellbeing at risk. A recent research study showed that we’re remarkably accurate at recalling anything connected with infection.

In the study, volunteers were shown a set of objects that they would be tested on later. But there was a twist. Some of the items were held by a researcher who was said to have COVID．And guess what? ___17___None of the volunteers would ever have to touch those things themselves. But their minds still prioritised them, locking in the information for later—just in case it could keep them safe.

_____18_____When you’ve got something important to remember, why not “tag” it with one of those unpleasant feelings that your brain can’t help holding on to?

• ______19______Picture the bottle, and imagine opening it only to discover that it’s weeks out of date. Think about how it would look—and smell! Thanks to the power of disgust, you’ll have a much better chance of remembering to buy what you need.

• Maybe you have to visit the library before it closes. To refresh your memory, visualise the library tables piled high with all the foods you absolutely hate. See if your instinct for self-protection keeps the library in your thoughts more than normally!

• And how about learning the password for your credit card by imagining that only the correct buttons on the ATM are safe? The first time you type the password, pretend that all the other keys are covered in deadly germs. ______20______

Don’t try this technique too often, though, or you’ll end up always feeling on edge! But when your memory needs a boost a small bit of disgust can be very healthy for your recall.

A．Make use of your drive to survive.

B．And it’s what you can use to your advantage.

C．Keep the “dangerous” pattern on your memory.

D．We’re also naturally talented at recognising faces.

E．Even imaginary dangers can sharpen our memory skills.

F．Worried about forgetting the milk from your shopping list?

G．Those “infected” objects proved to be significantly easier to recall.

Empathy, the ability to understand and co-experience the feelings and thoughts of other people, is probably one of the most important skills a person can have. ____36____
