Do you tend to misplace things? You look for your phone from time to time or you can’t find the TV remote until ten minutes after a favorite show has begun. It’s common and certainly annoying. But most of the time losing things simply results from absentmindedness.____76____We never really store the information into memory about where we’ve put the object at hand, because we have other concerns occupying our attention.
Luckily, for the most part, people can overcome their tendency to misplace things____77____
When you put something down, say its location.____78____For example, you could say, “I’m setting my mouse to the right of my computer.” And saying that either in your mind or out loud, focuses your attention on where you put it, increasing the chances that you’ll remember its location later.
____79____Assign a color that you love and use key rings and phone cases of that color so that when you’re scanning, you’re always looking for your favorite color. You could also put reflective tape on the TV remote, which will make it easier to be found when it disappears.
Be kind to yourself. It’s certainly understandable if you’re frustrated with your tendency to misplace things. But if you keep beating yourself up about it, you may start to think that you’re losing it that there’s something wrong with you and you may get anxious about that.____80____So, remember to give yourself a break.

Actually, everyone else is too busy worrying about their own mistakes. Chances are that you’re not the only one struggling with the steps!
We all have patterns of muscle memory. Your body likes doing repetitive movements that it doesn’t have to think about. ___83___ Your brain may understand, but it can take a while to direct them to interpret these new and unfamiliar movements. Be patient with yourself and understand it’s the way your body works.
___84___ If you’ve never danced before, the complex rhythms and fast footwork of flamenco(弗拉门科舞) would be a big challenge as the first dance style. If you’re inflexible, I recommend doing some yoga first to make your body get used to the new demands of dance.

54．根据“Many families believe that mealtime is a good time to communicate and to “catch up” on the lives of family and friends. (许多家庭认为，进餐时间是沟通和“赶上”家人和朋友生活的好时机)”可知，本段主要讲述进餐时间是和家人沟通的好时机。由此可知，F项“此外，在进餐时间交谈的作用因地而异”符合语境。F项中的conversation和下文中的communicate相呼应。故选F。
55．根据“Even among people who share similar cultural backgrounds, eating patterns are not identical. Further, men eat differently from women.( 即使在文化背景相似的人群中，饮食模式也不尽相同。此外，男性的饮食与女性不同)”可知，本段主要讲述即使在文化相同的人群中，饮食习惯也会不同。由此可知，A项“不同年龄段的人吃得不同”符合语境。和前一句话共同构成了“即使在文化相同的人群中，饮食习惯也会不同”的两个方面。故选A。
