(2022春·湖南邵阳·高二湖南省邵东市第一中学校考期中)These days, most people like using messaging apps when they need to communicate with someone. But sometimes making a call is unavoidable. However, this simple act can actually be a nightmare for some people.____1____. If this sounds familiar to you, you might be one of the millions of people who suffer from telephobia — the fear of speaking over the phone.
___2___ When speaking face-to-face, we use facial expressions and gestures that help each other follow the conversation. This is not the case over the phone. And the idea of speaking with someone on the phone makes some people so terrified that they will freeze up and look foolish. However, there are things that one suffering from this condition can do to ease this fear.
One thing that those with telephobia can do before a call is smile. ___3___ It won’t remove the anxiety altogether, but it will take the edge off it.
Similarly, imagining how the call will go before you make it can also help things go more smoothly. That will make you feel less nervous and help you predict some possible problems. There’s no need to spend hours on this, just a few minutes forming several ideas of what you want to say.___4___ This is particularly useful for dealing with the fear of not being able to express yourself spontaneously (自然地).
And finally, when faced with receiving a call, you don’t always have to pick up. ___5___
A.Doing so can help you feel more relaxed.
B.It’s often the opening lines that give us the most anxiety.
C.Their heart race and their hands sweat at the very thought of it.
D.People who feel comfortable in social situations may experience telephobia.

Is it safe to exercise in hot weather?
___6___In fact, it might even help you get a better night’s sleep. Make sure to stay hydrated (含水的) throughout your session and try to time the workout either at the start or end of the day when the temperatures have dropped. The heatwave makes it all the more important to listen to your body when it’s telling you to stop. ___7___All of these are symptoms of heatstroke (中暑) which can be deadly, after all.
Do you burn more calories in a heatwave?
Working out in hot weather not only pushes your body to work harder to cool down, it also burns more calories in the process. ___8___Thus your heart works harder in hotter temperatures than it would in cooler temperatures, providing an increased calorie and fat burn.
But while working out in a heatwave does in fact burn calories, chances are the heat will also cut your gym session short. ___9___Because your body is working hard to keep you cool while the weather itself means you can exercise for longer.
What is the best form of exercise during a heatwave?
Although boxing has been considered as the best calorie -burning exercise around, it’s more efficient to choose an outdoor sport during a period of hot weather. ___10___ Running outside is close behind with 700. Just imagine how calorie-burning they must be in the heat.

When you’re upset about something, ask yourself “How is this situation funny?” Humor can even turn a negative into a positive.

Take up something new. When you try something new — whether it’s to draw or learn to roller skate — your original attempts will likely be clumsy (笨拙的) and even ridiculous (荒谬的). ____19____ So taking up something new is likely to result in laughs.

It may seem obvious, but getting those recommended seven to nine hours will make getting up earlier easier. Pro tip? Keep the laptop and other work out of the bed to sleep soundly.

Skip the snooze (小睡).
Disrupting sleep an hour or so before actually getting out of bed may disturb our REM (rapid eye movement) cycle, which helps stimulate brain regions linked to cognition (认知). Don’t want to mess with that (or bug a roommate with multiple alarms!). Set one alarm for when it’s time to rise. ___22___
Let in the light or hit the gym.
Research shows a little light may be all we need to reset the body clock. ___23___ Or greet the day and brush your teeth outside! Those tired eyes may go away once a morning workout routine is in order. Exercise will definitely boost energy—give these early-bird exercises a try.
___24___
Sleepiness doesn’t disappear just from drinking a cup of coffee. Having enough time for some green eggs and ham (or maybe just a yogurt parfait) will also provide energy, not to mention it’ll boost that brainpower, too. Have a reward waiting in the a. m. to motivate climbing out of the covers. Dive into some freshly based fruit and nut bars, or slide into a warm bath instead of taking a quick shower.

There are many different ways of approaching critical thinking, but here’s one four-step process that may help you solve any number of problems:

But, if you approach the situation with a clear view of what you’re actually trying to accomplish by dieting, that’ll equip you to examine this information critically, find what you’re looking for, and decide whether the new craze really suits your needs.

C.In other words, know what you’re looking for.
D.But, there are many ways to improve our chances.

71.根据上文“One of the bad things is that a peaceful group of people can quickly turn into a crazy panicked crowd.( 糟糕的事情之一是,一群平静的人很快就会变成一群疯狂恐慌的人。)”可知,此处讲述了踩踏事件造成的坏影响,选项E中的信息“What’s worse is that the stampede can be caused while there seems no actual danger.( 更糟糕的是,在没有实际危险的情况下,踩踏事件仍然可能发生。)”与上文信息是递进的关系。故选E。

Make yourself ware of the type of ground you are standing on. If you are in a crowd of moving people, wet or uneven round can be slippery or dangerous, causing you to fall.(一定要知道怎么出去。注意你所站的地方。如果你在一群移动的人群中,潮湿或不均匀的圆形会很滑或危险,导致你摔倒。)”中的the type of ground和后面的wet or uneven ground与选项中的where相互呼应,因此B选项“No matter where you are(无论你在哪里)”切合题意,符合此处语境。故选B。

75.根据下文“Sometimes, finding a right posture can save your life.(有时候,正确的姿势可以挽救你的生命)”可知,正确的姿势可以挽救你的生命,下文应该对此进行具体说明,G项“Do not lie on your stomach or back, as this dangerously leaves your lungs unprotected(我们不要躺在地上,这会让你的肺部危险)”中的Do not lie on your stomach or back与下文的finding a right posture相互呼应,因此G选项切合题意,符合此处语境。故选G。
