Turning soil, pulling weeds, and harvesting cabbage sound like tough work for middle and high school kids. And at first it is, says Abby Jaramillo, who with another teacher started Urban Sprouts, a school garden program at four low-income schools. The program aims to help students develop science skills, environmental awareness, and healthy lifestyles.
Jaramillo's students live in neighborhoods where fresh food and green space are not easy to find and fast food restaurants outnumber grocery stores. “The kids literally come to school with bags of snacks and large bottles of soft drinks,” she says. “They come to us thinking vegetables are awful, dirt is awful, insects are awful.” Though some are initially scared of the insects and turned off by the dirt, most are eager to try something new.
Urban Sprouts' classes, at two middle schools and two high schools, include hands-on experiments such as soil testing, flower-and-seed dissection, tastings of fresh or dried produce, and work in the garden. Several times a year, students cook the vegetables they grow, and they occasionally make salads for their entire schools.
Program evaluations show that kids eat more vegetables as a result of the classes. “We have students who say they went home and talked to their parents and now they're eating differently,”Jaramillo says.
She adds that the program's benefits go beyond nutrition. Some students get so interested in gardening that they bring home seeds to start their own vegetable gardens. Besides, working in the garden seems to have a calming effect on Jaramillo's special education students, many of whom have emotional control issues. “They get outside,” she says, “and they feel successful.”
1. What do we know about Abby Jaramillo
A. She used to be a health worker.
B. She grew up in a low-income family.
C. She owns a fast food restaurant.

We watch our salt and fat intake to protect our hearts. We exercise and take calcium to protect our bones. We use sunscreen to protect our skin. But what can we do to protect our eyes all year round A lot. 1.
Invest in quality sunglasses
To shield your eyes, wear sunglasses certified to block out 99 to 100 per cent of UVA and UVB light. 2. “In fact, if the lenses are dark but not UV-protective, that's worse for your eyes, because when you're looking through dark lenses your pupils(瞳孔) dilate, which lets more UV light inside to do damage,” says Dr Esen Akpek, a professor at Johns Hopkins University.
Wear safety glasses when needed
You don't have to be doing construction work or factory work to need protective eyewear. 3. It's estimated that up to 90 per cent of sports-related eye injuries are actually preventable with proper eye protection. “I see people who've been gardening, leaned forward and got poked in the eye by a branch,” says Dr Davinder Grover, an ophthalmologist at Glaucoma Associates of Texas.
Invest in an air purifier
4. Outdoor cold and wind can be drying, too, while pollution and allergens can cause irritation. In addition to lubricating eye drops, “air purifiers and humidifiers are our friends,” says Akpek.
See an eye specialist regularly
A routine checkup helps maintain good eye health, so please don't forget to see an eye specialist for a checkup regularly, if possible. 5.
A. Safety comes first for various outdoor activities.
B. Surprisingly, dark lenses aren't necessarily the most protective.
C. Indoor heating and air conditioning can dry out the air—and the eyes.
D. Gardening, home repairs and sports all pose the risk of trauma to the eye.
E. Not all eye problems are noticeable, and all are best treated when found early.
F. By incorporating these lifestyle steps, your eyes will stay healthy throughout the year.
G. We have asked experts what lifestyle steps people should take to protect their vision and eye health.

The goal of this book is to make the case for digital minimalism, including a detailed exploration of what it asks and why it works, and then to teach you how to adopt this philosophy if you decide it's right for you.
To do so, I divided the book into two parts. In part one, I describe the philosophical foundations of digital minimalism, starting with an examination of the forces that are making so many people's digital lives increasingly intolerable, before moving on to a detailed discussion of the digital minimalism philosophy.
Part one concludes by introducing my suggested method for adopting this philosophy: the digital declutter. This process requires you to step away from optional online activities for thirty days. At the end of the thirty days, you will then add back a small number of carefully chosen online activities that you believe will provide massive benefits to the things you value.
In the final chapter of part one, I'll guide you through carrying out your own digital declutter. In doing so, I'll draw on an experiment I ran in 2018 in which over 1,600 people agreed to perform a digital declutter. You'll hear these participants' stories and learn what strategies worked well for them, and what traps they encountered that you should avoid.
The second part of this book takes a closer look at some ideas that will help you cultivate(培养) a sustainable digital minimalism lifestyle. In these chapters, I examine issues such as the importance of solitude(独处) and the necessity of cultivating high-quality leisure to replace the time most now spend on mindless device use. Each chapter concludes with a collection of practices, which are designed to help you act on the big ideas of the chapter. You can view these practices as a toolbox meant to aid your efforts to build a minimalist lifestyle that works for your particular circumstances.
1. What is the book aimed at
A. Teaching critical thinking skills.
B. Advocating a simple digital lifestyle.
C. Solving philosophical problems.
D. Promoting the use of a digital device.
2. What does the underlined word “declutter” in paragraph 3 mean
A. Clear-up. B. Add-on. C. Check-in. D. Take-over.
3. What is presented in the final chapter of part one
A. Theoretical models.
B. Statistical methods.
C. Practical examples.
D. Historical analyses.
4. What does the author suggest readers do with the practices offered in part two
A. Use them as needed.
B. Recommend them to friends.
C. Evaluate their effects.
D. Identify the ideas behind them.

A middle-aged woman playing by herself in the snow is an undeniably odd sight, but maybe it shouldn't be. New research suggests that modern adults are suffering from overmuch depression, so play may be as essential to our health as sleep.
It's believed that adult play can lead to useful discoveries, which is supported by a study on Bali's long-tailed monkeys. For her doctoral paper at the University of Lethbridge, animal researcher Camilla Cenni left two types of puzzle boxes for the monkeys to solve. To get the food inside, they had to drop a rock into the container or use it to hit the box. She found the monkeys that previously had been observed dropping rocks for fun were more likely to solve the rock-dropping puzzle, while those that had discovered the joy of tapping rocks together think of the answer to the tapping puzzle.
This finding also suggests that somewhere, deep in our evolutionary history, a playful proto-human(原始人) came up with the concept of stone tools. “Even today, the urge to play underlies most of humanity's greatest inventions, artworks, and scientific breakthroughs,” play researcher Stuart Brown says. “When I interviewed Nobel winners, I was struck by how most of them didn't separate work and play. Their labs were their playgrounds.”
“The opposite of play isn't work; it's depression,” says Brown. “Play is all about looking at a tough world with creativity and optimism. It gives us the ability to cooperate and get along with people who differ from us.” He goes so far as to declare that “adult play is necessary for our survival as a species.”
The next time I'm caught playing, I know exactly what I'll say: “I am not wasting time, or acting immature. I'm playing for the benefit of all humanity. You're welcome.”
1. What is the phenomenon the author describes at the beginning of the text
A. Playing with snow is strange.
B. Wild nature is difficult to find.
C. Many people are stressed out.
D. People enjoy living close to nature.
2. What is paragraph 2 of the text mainly about
A. The necessity of the study.
B. The importance of adult play.
C. Main activities of monkeys.
D. Various functions of a rock.
3. What is the author's purpose in mentioning a playful proto-human
A. To explain the concept of play.
B. To compare two research findings.
C. To highlight scientific breakthroughs.
D. To offer some background information.
4. Which of the following best describes the author in the last paragraph
A. Humorous. B. Optimistic. C. Caring. D. Active.

“Mom, please,” Anna begged eagerly. “Please, let me do it by myself!” She had never made cookies by herself before, but at the age of nine, she felt capable of handling many things. Her friends had been baking cupcakes for a year. Yet, it seemed her parents had little faith in her.
“Anna is going to make cookies Alone ” her brother, Carl, asked with a laugh. “That is going to be disaster!” Carl used big words to act smarter than Anna. Having a big brother could be annoying. Admittedly, Anna always appeared clumsy. But that was before she turned nine. She thought her parents should realize she would do better now.
At her words, a flash of uncertainty crossed her parents' faces. Would they agree Holding her breath, she had waited for what seemed like ages. Surprisingly, Mom nodded, saying, “Okay, but please be careful, and remember to take a look at the cookbook first.”
Fueled by determination, Anna raced to the kitchen. With each step, there was a sense of purpose and confidence growing within her. She had already done it with Mom a million times before. Putting the cookbook aside, she got down to baking cookies from memory, breaking eggs, dropping a cold stick of butter, adding salt and then...um...yes, mixing it well! Using a mixer was easy. She turned on the mixer at the medium speed—and whoa. Whoa. Whoa! Butter splattered(飞溅) everywhere, making the kitchen in a mess. Collecting herself, she turned back to the mixing bowl and started again. This time with softer butter.
Anna placed rounded spoonfuls of mixture onto the cookie pan and put it into the oven(烤炉). Within a few minutes, a fantastic smell filled the kitchen—the smell of cookie success! She was going to silence all those doubts. No more eye-rolling from her big brother. No more “You're too young, Anna” from her parents. She believed she was grown up and mature enough to be relied on.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
The moment Anna pulled the pan out of the oven, Carl stepped into the kitchen.
Now she decided to have another try, carefully following the cookbook.

Live with roommates Have friends and family around you Chances are that if you're looking to live a more sustainable lifestyle, not everyone around you will be ready to jump on that bandwagon.
I experienced this when I started switching to a zero waste lifestyle five years ago, as I was living with my parents, and I continue to experience this with my husband, as he is not completely zero waste like me. I've learned a few things along the way though, which I hope you'll find encouraging if you're doing your best to figure out how you can make the change in a not-always-supportive household.
Zero waste was a radical lifestyle movement a few years back. I remember showing my parents a video of Bea Johnson, sharing how cool I thought it would be to buy groceries with jars, and have so little trash! A few days later, I came back with my first jars of zero waste groceries, and my dad commented on how silly it was for me to carry jars everywhere. It came off as a bit discouraging.
Yet as the months of reducing waste continued, I did what I could that was within my own reach. I had my own bedroom, so I worked on removing things I didn't need. Since I had my own toiletries (洗漱用品), I was able to start personalising my routine to be more sustainable. I also offered to cook every so often, so I portioned out a bit of the cupboard for my own zero waste groceries. Perhaps your household won't entirely make the switch, but you may have some control over your own personal spaces to make the changes you desire.
As you make your lifestyle changes, you may find yourself wanting to speak up for yourself if others comment on what you're doing, which can turn itself into a whole household debate. If you have individuals who are not on board, your words probably won't do much and can often leave you feeling more discouraged.
So here is my advice: Lead by action.
1. What do the underlined words “jump on that bandwagon” mean in the first paragraph
A. Share an apartment with you.
B. Join you in what you're doing.
C. Transform your way of living.
D. Help you to make the decision.
2. What was the attitude of the author's father toward buying groceries with jars
A. He disapproved of it.
B. He was favorable to it.
C. He was tolerant of it.
D. He didn't care about it.
3. What can we infer about the author
A. She is quite good at cooking.
B. She respects others' privacy.
C. She enjoys being a housewife.
D. She is a determined person.
4. What is the text mainly about
A. How to get on well with other family members.
B. How to have one's own personal space at home.
C. How to live a zero waste lifestyle in a household.
D. How to control the budget when buying groceries.

According to a recent study in the Journal of Consumer Research, both the size and consumption habits of our eating companions can influence our food intake. And contrary to existing research that says you should avoid eating with heavier people who order large portions (份), it's the beanpoles with big appetites you really need to avoid.
To test the effect of social influence on eating habits, the researchers conducted two experiments. In the first, 95 undergraduate women were individually invited into a lab to ostensibly (表面上) participate in a study about movie viewership. Before the film began, each woman was asked to help herself to a snack. An actor hired by the researchers grabbed her food first. In her natural state, the actor weighed 105 pounds. But in half the cases she wore a specially designed fat suit which increased her weight to 180 pounds.
Both the fat and thin versions of the actor took a large amount of food. The participants followed suit, taking more food than they normally would have. However, they took significantly more when the actor was thin.
For the second test, in one case the thin actor took two pieces of candy from the snack bowls. In the other case, she took 30 pieces. The results were similar to the first test: the participants followed suit but took significantly more candy when the thin actor took 30 pieces.
The tests show that the social environment is extremely influential when we're making decisions. If this fellow participant is going to eat more, so will I. Call it the “I'll have what she's having” effect. However, we'll adjust the influence. If an overweight person is having a large portion, I'll hold back a bit because I see the results of his eating habits. But if a thin person eats a lot, I'll follow suit. If he can eat much and keep slim, why can't I
1. What is the recent study mainly about
A. Food safety.
B. Movie viewership.
C. Consumer demand.
D. Eating behavior.
2. What does the underlined word “beanpoles” in paragraph 1 refer to
A. Big eaters. B. Overweight persons. C. Picky eaters. D. Tall thin persons.
3. Why did the researchers hire the actor
A. To see how she would affect the participants.
B. To test if the participants could recognize her.
C. To find out what she would do in the two tests.
D. To study why she could keep her weight down.
4. On what basis do we “adjust the influence” according to the last paragraph
A. How hungry we are.
B. How slim we want to be.
C. How we perceive others.
D. How we feel about the food.

Do you get joy out of volunteering or learning new skills in the class you've been taking
1. As it turns out, being inspired by things in your life doesn't just help your emotional well-being, it may keep you healthier.
A 2019 JAMA Network Open study found that among a group of nearly 7,000 adults over age 50, those who scored highest on a scale that measured “life purpose” were less likely to die during the four-year study period. 2.
“There have been a number of studies suggesting that a higher sense of purpose in life is associated with reduced risk of early death,” says Eric S. Kim, Ph.D., a scientist in the Department of Social and Behavioral Sciences at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. “3. That's an interesting advancement of knowledge.”
So, what exactly is life purpose Life purpose is defined differently by different people. 4. This purpose, the study authors said, helps make it more likely that you will engage in behaviors that are good for your health. Some studies also have been carried out to simply ask people what gives them a sense of purpose in life. 5. It included family and relationships, community, helping others, learning new skills and taking part in leisure activities or hobbies, to name just a few.
“I define it as the extent to which people experience their lives as being directed and motivated by valued life goals,” says Kim.
A. People made a long list.
B. If you said yes, it could help you live longer.
C. Many factors contribute to their physical health.
D. The study showed the role a sense of purpose plays in life.
E. They were also less likely to die from heart or blood conditions.
F. But in general it indicates that you have an aim in life and goals.
G. But this study for the first time showed a purposeful life is linked with specific causes of death.

What is moderation(适度) Basically, it means eating only as much food as your body needs. You should feel satisfied at the end of a meal, but not too full. 1. But it doesn't mean saying goodbye to the foods you love.
Take your time. It's important to slow down and think about food as something nutritious rather than just something to eat in between meetings. 2. It actually takes a few minutes for your brain to tell your body that it has had enough food, so eat slowly and stop eating before you feel full.
Eat with others whenever possible. Eating alone, especially in front of the TV or computer, often leads to mindless overeating. And be careful about the foods you keep at hand. It's more challenging to eat in moderation if you have unhealthy snacks at the ready, like cookies. 3.
Control emotional(情绪的) eating. 4. Many of us also turn to food to deal with unpleasant emotions such as sadness, loneliness, or boredom. But by learning healthier ways to manage emotions, you can regain control over the food you eat and your feelings.
5. A healthy breakfast can start your metabolism(新陈代谢), while eating small, healthy meals keeps your energy up all day. Avoid eating late at night. Try to eat dinner earlier and fast for 14-16 hours until breakfast the next morning. Studies suggest that eating only when you're most active and giving your digestive system a long break each day may help to regulate weight.
A. Eat properly throughout the day.
B. We don't always eat just to satisfy hunger.
C. Don't swallow a meal on the way to work.
D. Most of us need to double the amount we eat.
E. Instead, surround yourself with healthy choices.
F. For many of us, moderation means eating less than we do now.

Books that can help children manage anxiety
Children experience anxiety differently from adults, and it also looks different in each child. Fortunately, books can serve as tools for guiding children through the anxious thoughts and feelings they may experience. The following are four books that can help children effectively manage their anxiety.
The Healthy Coping Colouring Book and Journal by Pooky Knightsmith
This colouring book is specifically designed for children aged 8 to 14 and activities range from colouring to journaling and drawing, all of which are developed to help children deal with troubling situations. The different activities can be beneficial for self-expression.
Please Explain “Anxiety” to Me! by Laurie E. Zelinger and Jordan Zelinger
Written by psychologists, this story breaks down both the physical and emotional symptoms of anxiety. The story compares the natural anxiety kids feel to dinosaurs fearing being threatened in the wild. It explains that some anxiety(for example, a dinosaur's anxiety about being eaten) can be our body's way of protecting us from threats.
Sea Otter Cove by Lori Lite
This is a book that teaches children how to use proper breathing techniques to calm down, lower stress, and control anger. With playful sea otters in the book, children get to experience belly breathing. This effective, self-calming technique is also known as diaphragmatic breathing.
The Worry Glasses:Overcoming Anxiety by Donalisa Helsley
This book is about a little girl named MJ. It tells the story of how she learns to defeat her worries. All through the story, her wonderful counselor Miss Jessica patiently helps her. The book includes a list of exercises designed to relieve kids' anxiety. It also offers tips to parents and adults who live with anxious children.
1. What's the common ground of the activities in Pooky Knightsmith's book
A. Encouraging children to express anxiety.
B. Helping children increase intelligence.

Terri Bolton is a dab hand when it comes to DIY (do-it-yourself). Skilled at putting up shelves and piecing together furniture, she never pays someone else to do a job she can do herself.
She credits these skills to her late grandfather and builder Derek Lloyd. From the age of six, Terri, now 26, accompanied Derek to work during her school holidays. A day's work was rewarded with ￡5 in pocket money. She says:“I'm sure I wasn't much of a help to start with. But when Derek built our family house about eight years ago, I was heavily involved(参与), painting the rooms and putting down the flooring throughout the house. It took weeks and it was backbreaking work, but I know he was proud of my skills.”
Terri, who now rents a house with friends in Wandsworth, South West London, says DIY also saves her from losing any deposit when a tenancy(租期) comes to an end. She adds:“I've moved house many times and I always like to personalise my room and put up pictures. So, it's been useful to know how to cover up holes and repaint a room to avoid any charges when I've moved out.”
With millions of people likely to take on DIY projects over the coming weeks, new research shows that more than half of people are planning to make the most of the long, warm summer days to get jobs done. The average spend per project will be around ￡823. Two thirds of people aim to improve their comfort while at home. A fifth wish to increase the value of their houses. Though DIY has traditionally been seen as a male hobby, the research shows it is women now leading the charge.
1. Which is closest in meaning to “a dab hand” in paragraph 1
A. An artist.
B. A winner.
C. A specialist.
D. A pioneer.
2. Why did Terri's grandfather give her ￡5 a day
A. For a birthday gift.
B. As a treat for her work.
C. To support her DIY projects.
D. To encourage her to take up a hobby.
3. How did Terri avoid losing the deposit on the house she rented
A. By making it look like before.
B. By furnishing it herself.
C. By splitting the rent with a roommate.
D. By cancelling the rental agreement.
4. What trend in DIY does the research show
A. It is becoming more costly.
B. It is getting more time-consuming.
C. It is turning into a seasonal industry.
D. It is gaining popularity among females.

Jennifer Mauer has needed more willpower than the typical college student to pursue her goal of earning a nursing degree. That willpower bore fruit when Jennifer graduated from University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire and became the first in her large family to earn a bachelor's degree.
Mauer, of Edgar, Wisconsin, grew up on a farm in a family of 10 children. Her dad worked at a job away from the farm, and her mother ran the farm with the kids. After high school, Jennifer attended a local technical college, working to pay her tuition (学费), because there was no extra money set aside for a college education. After graduation, she worked to help her sisters and brothers pay for their schooling.
Jennifer now is married and has three children of her own. She decided to go back to college to advance her career and to be able to better support her family while doing something she loves: nursing. She chose the UW-Eau Claire program at Ministry Saint Joseph's Hospital in Marshfield because she was able to pursue her four-year degree close to home. She could drive to class and be home in the evening to help with her kids. Jennifer received great support from her family as she worked to earn her degree: Her husband worked two jobs to cover the bills, and her 68-year-old mother helped take care of the children at times.
Through it all, she remained in good academic standing and graduated with honors. Jennifer sacrificed(牺牲) to achieve her goal, giving up many nights with her kids and missing important events to study. “Some nights my heart was breaking to have to pick between my kids and studying for exams or papers,” she says. However, her children have learned an important lesson witnessing their mother earn her degree. Jennifer is a first-generation graduate and an inspiration to her family—and that's pretty powerful.
1. What did Jennifer do after high school
A. She helped her dad with his work.
B. She ran the family farm on her own.
C. She supported herself through college.
D. She taught her sisters and brothers at home.
2. Why did Jennifer choose the program at Ministry Saint Joseph's Hospital in Marshfield
A. To take care of her kids easily.
B. To learn from the best nurses.
C. To save money for her parents.
D. To find a well-paid job there.
3. What did Jennifer sacrifice to achieve her goal
A. Her health.
B. Her time with family.
C. Her reputation.
D. Her chance of promotion.
4. What can we learn from Jennifer's story
A. Time is money.
B. Love breaks down barriers.
C. Hard work pays off.
D. Education is the key to success.

I have a special place in my heart for libraries. I have for as long as I can remember. I was always an enthusiastic reader, sometimes reading up to three books a day as a child. Stories were like air to me and while other kids played ball or went to parties, I lived out adventures through the books I checked out from the library.
My first job was working at the Ukiah Library when I was 16 years old. It was a dream job and I did everything from shelving books to reading to the children for story time.
As I grew older and became a mother, the library took on a new place and an added meaning in my life. I had several children and books were our main source(来源) of entertainment. It was a big deal for us to load up and go to the local library, where my kids could pick out books to read or books they wanted me to read to them.
I always read, using different voices, as though I were acting out the stories with my voice and they loved it! It was a special time to bond with my children and it filled them with the wonderment of books.
Now, I see my children taking their children to the library and I love that the excitement of going to the library lives on from generation to generation.
As a novelist, I've found a new relationship with libraries. I encourage readers to go to their local library when they can't afford to purchase a book. I see libraries as a safe haven(避风港) for readers and writers, a bridge that helps put together a reader with a book. Libraries, in their own way, help fight book piracy(盗版行为) and I think all writers should support libraries in a significant way when they can. Encourage readers to use the library. Share library announcements on your social media. Frequent them and talk about them when you can.
1. Which word best describes the author's relationship with books as a child
A. Cooperative. B. Uneasy. C. Inseparable. D. Casual.
2. What does the underlined phrase “an added meaning” in paragraph 3 refer to
A. Pleasure from working in the library.
B. Joy of reading passed on in the family.
C. Wonderment from acting out the stories.
D. A closer bond developed with the readers.
3. What does the author call on other writers to do
A. Sponsor book fairs.
B. Write for social media.
C. Support libraries.
D. Purchase her novels.
4. Which can be a suitable title for the text
A. Reading:A Source of Knowledge
B. My Idea about Writing
C. Library:A Haven for the Young
D. My Love of the Library

Turning soil, pulling weeds, and harvesting cabbage sound like tough work for middle and high school kids. And at first it is, says Abby Jaramillo, who with another teacher started Urban Sprouts, a school garden program at four low-income schools. The program aims to help students develop science skills, environmental awareness, and healthy lifestyles.
Jaramillo's students live in neighborhoods where fresh food and green space are not easy to find and fast food restaurants outnumber grocery stores. “The kids literally come to school with bags of snacks and large bottles of soft drinks,” she says. “They come to us thinking vegetables are awful, dirt is awful, insects are awful.” Though some are initially scared of the insects and turned off by the dirt, most are eager to try something new.
Urban Sprouts' classes, at two middle schools and two high schools, include hands-on experiments such as soil testing, flower-and-seed dissection, tastings of fresh or dried produce, and work in the garden. Several times a year, students cook the vegetables they grow, and they occasionally make salads for their entire schools.
Program evaluations show that kids eat more vegetables as a result of the classes. “We have students who say they went home and talked to their parents and now they're eating differently,”Jaramillo says.
She adds that the program's benefits go beyond nutrition. Some students get so interested in gardening that they bring home seeds to start their own vegetable gardens. Besides, working in the garden seems to have a calming effect on Jaramillo's special education students, many of whom have emotional control issues. “They get outside,” she says, “and they feel successful.”
1. What do we know about Abby Jaramillo
A. She used to be a health worker.
B. She grew up in a low-income family.
C. She owns a fast food restaurant.
D. She is an initiator of Urban Sprouts.
2. What was a problem facing Jaramillo at the start of the program
A. The kids' parents distrusted her.
B. Students had little time for her classes.
C. Some kids disliked garden work.
D. There was no space for school gardens.

We watch our salt and fat intake to protect our hearts. We exercise and take calcium to protect our bones. We use sunscreen to protect our skin. But what can we do to protect our eyes all year round A lot. 1.
Invest in quality sunglasses
To shield your eyes, wear sunglasses certified to block out 99 to 100 per cent of UVA and UVB light. 2. “In fact, if the lenses are dark but not UV-protective, that's worse for your eyes, because when you're looking through dark lenses your pupils(瞳孔) dilate, which lets more UV light inside to do damage,” says Dr Esen Akpek, a professor at Johns Hopkins University.
Wear safety glasses when needed
You don't have to be doing construction work or factory work to need protective eyewear. 3. It's estimated that up to 90 per cent of sports-related eye injuries are actually preventable with proper eye protection. “I see people who've been gardening, leaned forward and got poked in the eye by a branch,” says Dr Davinder Grover, an ophthalmologist at Glaucoma Associates of Texas.
Invest in an air purifier
4. Outdoor cold and wind can be drying, too, while pollution and allergens can cause irritation. In addition to lubricating eye drops, “air purifiers and humidifiers are our friends,” says Akpek.
See an eye specialist regularly
A routine checkup helps maintain good eye health, so please don't forget to see an eye specialist for a checkup regularly, if possible. 5.
A. Safety comes first for various outdoor activities.
B. Surprisingly, dark lenses aren't necessarily the most protective.
C. Indoor heating and air conditioning can dry out the air—and the eyes.

The goal of this book is to make the case for digital minimalism, including a detailed exploration of what it asks and why it works, and then to teach you how to adopt this philosophy if you decide it's right for you.
To do so, I divided the book into two parts. In part one, I describe the philosophical foundations of digital minimalism, starting with an examination of the forces that are making so many people's digital lives increasingly intolerable, before moving on to a detailed discussion of the digital minimalism philosophy.
Part one concludes by introducing my suggested method for adopting this philosophy: the digital declutter. This process requires you to step away from optional online activities for thirty days. At the end of the thirty days, you will then add back a small number of carefully chosen online activities that you believe will provide massive benefits to the things you value.
In the final chapter of part one, I'll guide you through carrying out your own digital declutter. In doing so, I'll draw on an experiment I ran in 2018 in which over 1,600 people agreed to perform a digital declutter. You'll hear these participants' stories and learn what strategies worked well for them, and what traps they encountered that you should avoid.
The second part of this book takes a closer look at some ideas that will help you cultivate(培养) a sustainable digital minimalism lifestyle. In these chapters, I examine issues such as the importance of solitude(独处) and the necessity of cultivating high-quality leisure to replace the time most now spend on mindless device use. Each chapter concludes with a collection of practices, which are designed to help you act on the big ideas of the chapter. You can view these practices as a toolbox meant to aid your efforts to build a minimalist lifestyle that works for your particular circumstances.
1. What is the book aimed at
A. Teaching critical thinking skills.
B. Advocating a simple digital lifestyle.
C. Solving philosophical problems.
D. Promoting the use of a digital device.
2. What does the underlined word “declutter” in paragraph 3 mean
A. Clear-up. B. Add-on. C. Check-in. D. Take-over.
3. What is presented in the final chapter of part one
A. Theoretical models.
B. Statistical methods.
C. Practical examples.
D. Historical analyses.
4. What does the author suggest readers do with the practices offered in part two
A. Use them as needed.
B. Recommend them to friends.
C. Evaluate their effects.
D. Identify the ideas behind them.

A middle-aged woman playing by herself in the snow is an undeniably odd sight, but maybe it shouldn't be. New research suggests that modern adults are suffering from overmuch depression, so play may be as essential to our health as sleep.
It's believed that adult play can lead to useful discoveries, which is supported by a study on Bali's long-tailed monkeys. For her doctoral paper at the University of Lethbridge, animal researcher Camilla Cenni left two types of puzzle boxes for the monkeys to solve. To get the food inside, they had to drop a rock into the container or use it to hit the box. She found the monkeys that previously had been observed dropping rocks for fun were more likely to solve the rock-dropping puzzle, while those that had discovered the joy of tapping rocks together think of the answer to the tapping puzzle.
This finding also suggests that somewhere, deep in our evolutionary history, a playful proto-human(原始人) came up with the concept of stone tools. “Even today, the urge to play underlies most of humanity's greatest inventions, artworks, and scientific breakthroughs,” play researcher Stuart Brown says. “When I interviewed Nobel winners, I was struck by how most of them didn't separate work and play. Their labs were their playgrounds.”
“The opposite of play isn't work; it's depression,” says Brown. “Play is all about looking at a tough world with creativity and optimism. It gives us the ability to cooperate and get along with people who differ from us.” He goes so far as to declare that “adult play is necessary for our survival as a species.”
The next time I'm caught playing, I know exactly what I'll say: “I am not wasting time, or acting immature. I'm playing for the benefit of all humanity. You're welcome.”
1. What is the phenomenon the author describes at the beginning of the text
A. Playing with snow is strange.
B. Wild nature is difficult to find.
C. Many people are stressed out.
D. People enjoy living close to nature.
2. What is paragraph 2 of the text mainly about

B. The importance of adult play.
C. Main activities of monkeys.
D. Various functions of a rock.
3. What is the author's purpose in mentioning a playful proto-human
A. To explain the concept of play.
B. To compare two research findings.
C. To highlight scientific breakthroughs.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
“Mom, please,” Anna begged eagerly. “Please, let me do it by myself!” She had never made cookies by herself before, but at the age of nine, she felt capable of handling many things. Her friends had been baking cupcakes for a year. Yet, it seemed her parents had little faith in her.
“Anna is going to make cookies Alone ” her brother, Carl, asked with a laugh. “That is going to be disaster!” Carl used big words to act smarter than Anna. Having a big brother could be annoying. Admittedly, Anna always appeared clumsy. But that was before she turned nine. She thought her parents should realize she would do better now.
At her words, a flash of uncertainty crossed her parents' faces. Would they agree Holding her breath, she had waited for what seemed like ages. Surprisingly, Mom nodded, saying, “Okay, but please be careful, and remember to take a look at the cookbook first.”
Fueled by determination, Anna raced to the kitchen. With each step, there was a sense of purpose and confidence growing within her. She had already done it with Mom a million times before. Putting the cookbook aside, she got down to baking cookies from memory, breaking eggs, dropping a cold stick of butter, adding salt and then...um...yes, mixing it well! Using a mixer was easy. She turned on the mixer at the medium speed—and whoa. Whoa. Whoa! Butter splattered(飞溅) everywhere, making the kitchen in a mess. Collecting herself, she turned back to the mixing bowl and started again. This time with softer butter.
Anna placed rounded spoonfuls of mixture onto the cookie pan and put it into the oven(烤炉). Within a few minutes, a fantastic smell filled the kitchen—the smell of cookie success! She was going to silence all those doubts. No more eye-rolling from her big brother. No more “You're too young, Anna” from her parents. She believed she was grown up and mature enough to be relied on.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
The moment Anna pulled the pan out of the oven, Carl stepped into the kitchen.
Now she decided to have another try, carefully following the cookbook.
答案
One possible version:
The moment Anna pulled the pan out of the oven, Carl stepped into the kitchen. There was a smug grin on his face. “Well, well, well, Anna, it seems your cooking adventure ended in disaster, just as I predicted,” he teased his sister dripping with superiority. Anna's heart sank as she surveyed the misshapen, burnt cookies on the tray. She had underestimated the importance of measuring ingredients accurately, resulting in an unappetizing mess. Carl's mocking laughter echoed in her ears, fueling her frustration and disappointment. She knew her failure resulted from her ignoring the cookbook.
Now she decided to have another try, carefully following the cookbook. Determined to redeem herself, Anna carefully measured each ingredient, ensuring precision in every step of the process and taking care to avoid the mistakes of her previous attempt. After twenty minutes, Anna opened the oven door to reveal perfectly golden-brown cookies. Her parents' eyes were filled with pride and admiration.Even Carl couldn't hide his astonishment. At that moment, Anna realized success wasn't just about baking perfect cookies; it was about believing in herself and being meticulous in everything she does.

Live with roommates Have friends and family around you Chances are that if you're looking to live a more sustainable lifestyle, not everyone around you will be ready to jump on that bandwagon.
I experienced this when I started switching to a zero waste lifestyle five years ago, as I was living with my parents, and I continue to experience this with my husband, as he is not completely zero waste like me. I've learned a few things along the way though, which I hope you'll find encouraging if you're doing your best to figure out how you can make the change in a not-always-supportive household.
Zero waste was a radical lifestyle movement a few years back. I remember showing my parents a video of Bea Johnson, sharing how cool I thought it would be to buy groceries with jars, and have so little trash! A few days later, I came back with my first jars of zero waste groceries, and my dad commented on how silly it was for me to carry jars everywhere. It came off as a bit discouraging.
Yet as the months of reducing waste continued, I did what I could that was within my own reach. I had my own bedroom, so I worked on removing things I didn't need. Since I had my own toiletries (洗漱用品), I was able to start personalising my routine to be more sustainable. I also offered to cook every so often, so I portioned out a bit of the cupboard for my own zero waste groceries. Perhaps your household won't entirely make the switch, but you may have some control over your own personal spaces to make the changes you desire.
As you make your lifestyle changes, you may find yourself wanting to speak up for yourself if others comment on what you're doing, which can turn itself into a whole household debate. If you have individuals who are not on board, your words probably won't do much and can often leave you feeling more discouraged.
So here is my advice: Lead by action.
1. What do the underlined words “jump on that bandwagon” mean in the first paragraph
A. Share an apartment with you.
B. Join you in what you're doing.
C. Transform your way of living.
D. Help you to make the decision.
2. What was the attitude of the author's father toward buying groceries with jars
A. He disapproved of it.
B. He was favorable to it.
C. He was tolerant of it.
D. He didn't care about it.
3. What can we infer about the author
A. She is quite good at cooking.
B. She respects others' privacy.
C. She enjoys being a housewife.
D. She is a determined person.
4. What is the text mainly about
A. How to get on well with other family members.
B. How to have one's own personal space at home.
C. How to live a zero waste lifestyle in a household.
D. How to control the budget when buying groceries.

According to a recent study in the Journal of Consumer Research, both the size and consumption habits of our eating companions can influence our food intake. And contrary to existing research that says you should avoid eating with heavier people who order large portions (份), it's the beanpoles with big appetites you really need to avoid.
To test the effect of social influence on eating habits, the researchers conducted two experiments. In the first, 95 undergraduate women were individually invited into a lab to ostensibly (表面上) participate in a study about movie viewership. Before the film began, each woman was asked to help herself to a snack. An actor hired by the researchers grabbed her food first. In her natural state, the actor weighed 105 pounds. But in half the cases she wore a specially designed fat suit which increased her weight to 180 pounds.
Both the fat and thin versions of the actor took a large amount of food. The participants followed suit, taking more food than they normally would have. However, they took significantly more when the actor was thin.
For the second test, in one case the thin actor took two pieces of candy from the snack bowls. In the other case, she took 30 pieces. The results were similar to the first test: the participants followed suit but took significantly more candy when the thin actor took 30 pieces.
