A(2019•新课标全国卷I)
Is Fresh Air Really Good for You?
We all grew up hearing people tell us to “go out and get some fresh air.” 36 According to recent studies,the answer is a big YES,if the air quality in your camping area is good.
37 If the air you’re breathing is clean-which it would be if you’re away from the smog of cities-then the air is filled with life-giving,energizing oxygen. If you exercise out of doors,your body will learn to breathe more deeply,allowing even more oxygen to get to your muscles(肌肉)and your brain.
Recently,people have begun studying the connection between the natural world and healing(治愈). 38 In these places patients can go to be near nature during their recovery. It turns out that just looking at green,growing things can reduce stress,lower blood pressure,and put people into a better mood(情绪).Greenery is good for us. Hospital patients who see tree branches out their window are likely to recover at a faster rate than patients who see buildings or sky instead. 39 It gives us a great feeling of peace.
40 While the sun's rays can age and harm our skin, they also give is beneficial Vitamin D. To make sure you get enough Vitamin D—but still protect your skin— put on sunscreen right as you head outside. It takes sunscreen about fifteen minutes to start working, and that's plenty of time for your skin to absorb a day's worth of Vitamin D.
A. Fresh air cleans our lungs.
B. So what are you waiting for?
C. Being in nature refreshes us.
D. Another side benefit of getting fresh air is sunlight.
E. But is fresh air really as good for you as your mother always said?
F. Just as importantly, we tend to associate air with health care.
G. All across the country, recovery centers have begun building Healing Gardens.

B(2019•新课标全国卷II)
Imagine a child standing on a diving board four feet high and asking himself the question: "Should I jump? " This is what motivation or the lack of it can do. Motivation and goal setting are the two sides of the same coin. 36 Like the child on the diving board, you will stay undecided.
37 More than that, how should you stay motivated to achieve the goal? First, you need to evaluate yourself, your values your strengths, your weaknesses, your achievements, your desires, etc. Only then should you set your goals.
You also need to judge the quality and depth of your motivation. This is quite important, because it is directly related to your commitment. There are times when your heart is not in your work. 38 So, slow down and think what you really want to do at that moment. Clarity(清晰)of thoughts can help you move forward.
Another way of setting realistic goals is to analyze your short- and long-term objectives, keeping in mind your beliefs, values and strengths. Remember that goals are flexible. 39 They also need to be measurable. You must keep these points in mind while setting your goals.
Your personal circumstances are equally important. For example, you may want to be a Pilot but can’t become one because your eyesight is not good enough. 40 You should reassess your goals, and motivate yourself to set a fresh goal.
You will surely need to overcome some difficulties, some planned, but most unplanned. You cannot overcome them without ample motivation. Make sure that you plan for these difficulties at the time of setting your goals.

D(2019•北京高考)
Much of the work in today’s world is accomplished(完成)in teams. Most people believe the best way to build a great team is to gather a group of the most talented individuals. 46 Companies spend millions hiring top business people. Is their money well spent?
47 They focused on football,basketball and baseball. The results are mixed For football and basketball,adding talented players to a team proves a good method,but only up to the point where 70% of the players are top talent;above that level, the team’s performance begins to decline. Interestingly,this trend isn’t evident in baseball. where additional individual talent keeps improving the team’s performance.
To explain this phenomenon,the researchers explored the degree to which a good performance by a team requires its members to coordinate(协调)their actions. 48 In baseball,the performance of individual players is less dependent on teammates. They conclude that when task interdependence is high,team performance will suffer when there is too much talent,while individual talent will have positive effects on team performance when task interdependence is lower. If a basketball start is, for example,trying to gain a high personal point total,he may take a shot himself when it would be better to pass the ball to a teammate,affecting the team's performance. Young children learning to play team sports are often told,“There is no I in TEAM.” 49
Another possibility is that when there is a lot of talent on a team,some players may make less effort. Just as in a game of tug-of-war(拔河比赛),whenever a person is added,everyone else pulls the rope with less force.
50 .An A-team may require a balance-not just A players,but a few generous B players as well.
A. It's not a simple matter to determine the nature of talent.
B. Sports team owners spend millions of dollars attracting top talent
C. The group interaction and its effect drew the researchers' attention.
D. Stars apparently do not follow this basic principle of sportsmanship.
E. Several recent studies examined the role of talent in the sports world.
F. Building up a dream team is more complex than simply hiring the best talent.
G. This task interdependence distinguishes baseball from football and basketball.

Thinking about the past and worrying about the future makes it impossible to stay in the present moment. Worrying rarely solve anything, but many of us just can’t resist it whenever we should be doing something else. 16. And here’s how to get started.
Pick a 30-minute window
On your calender, set aside 30 minutes for worrying. You had better make it a consistent daily time. 17. Maybe you won’t need it all, maybe you’ll find you need more at first ,but try to contain it to a half hour.
18.
If throughout the day you feel yourself worrying about something that isn’t immediately relevant, remind yourself that you have time to think about it later. Save it. Then try to reconnect with what’s happening around you in the moment.
Keep a notebook
When your half hour of worry time arrives, use a notebook to catalogue and process what’s causing you anxiety, 19. It might be helpful to also keep that notebook around during the day when you’re starting out: as a worry pops up, you can jot a note in it for later. You don’t want to worry about forgetting your worry!
Set a timer
When those 30 minutes are over, the timer will ding and you’ll be free of your worries for another 24 hours. 20. Over time, you will find that you have reduced your worry overall, feeling and sleeping better because these anxieties aren’t draining your mental strength all day. At the very least, it will give all that free floating fear a structure.
A. Get rid of worry quickly.
B. Don’t let worry interrupt.
C. Many people are simply caught in a worry loop.
D. And it’s best if it’s not too close to the time you go to sleep.
E. Sometimes seeing things written down helps relieve the stress.
F. Studies have shown scheduling worry into your day decreases anxiety over time.
G. Give the exercise two weeks and some results should begin to show themselves.

Traveling With a Group? Here’s How to Plan and Stay Friends
From bachelor parties to family reunions, group trips are opportunities to explore the world with the people you love. They also have the potential to be planning messes, with scheduling, decision-making and sorting-out finances coming together. 16. We’ve rounded up tips, tricks and tools to help plan your group trip well.
Understand your group dynamic
Is it a group of friends, or is it a couple of families traveling together? Is it a multigenerational trip with a big age range? These factors all come into play with activity level, comfort zones and rooming. 17. Families might prefer the ease and facilities of a hotel or resort. Big groups of friends might opt to search through home rental sites like VRBO and Airbnb.
Shared apps are vital
Once you’ve decided on the group, figure out when everyone is available. Doodle allows users to create a poll online of possible travel dates and then vote on preferred options. Tried and true Google Sheets is a nice way to organize options for destinations, housing and more in a spreadsheet. 18. It will allow you to send messages both while planning and when traveling.
19.

Splitwise is a popular app for tracking, prorating and ultimately balancing expenses. It also integrates directly with the payment app Venmo, allowing you to make payments and receive money directly.
Getting group deals
