Trail Etiquette(狭路礼仪)
More and more people have been exercising outdoors, forcing people to rub shoulders for the first time. Following the unwritten rules of the trail can ensure proper civility.
Determine who has the right of way. On narrow trails, when you meet someone coming from the other direction or approaching from behind at a faster pace, one of you has to step aside and yield (让步). ___11___ The person moving uphill has the right of way. On a flat trail, yielding to another hiker is always appreciated.
Trail etiquette for other transports. Things often start to get hairy when people are using modes of transportation other than their feet. ___12___ That is, differently-abled people always get the right of way, no matter whether they’re on walking sticks, a power chair, or the like.
Leashed(拴绳) dogs are the best dogs. Dog owners must obey trail etiquette, too, starting with obeying all park regulations about leashing your pet. If off-leash dogs are permitted, you should still keep a leash handy for when you pass other hikers and pack animals. Keep in mind that some people are afraid of dogs. ___13___
___14___ Blasting your favorite tunes on your portable Bluetooth speaker may be the perfect addition to a great hike, but you need to think about how this might influence others.

Talk to your family or friends. ____18____And if you’re not ready to talk about how you’re feeling just yet and just want their company, that’s totally okay, too.
Make a to-do list for tomorrow. What’s bothering you today might just be what will happen tomorrow. ____19____ For instance, if you have a presentation to work on, start your list by writing an outline, then making any slides or visual aids, and finally, writing any notes you may need. If you can make a plan, set goals, and organize your day ahead of time, the work may not feel terrifying.
____20____ This is often an essential part of self-care that’s overlooked.But there’s more to life than work.

___26___ Talking to ourselves, whether out loud or silently in our heads, is a valuable tool for thought. Self-talk allows us to plan what we are going to do, manage our activities, regulate our emotions and even create a narrative (叙述)of our experience.
Take a trip to any preschool and watch a small child playing with her toys. You are very likely to hear her talking to herself: offering herself directions and giving voice to her frustrations (沮丧). ___27___ We do a lot of it when we are young—perhaps one reason for our shyness about continuing with it as adults.                                                                                                                                                                                  
As children, according to a Russian psychologist, we use private speech to regulate our actions in the same way that we use public speech to control the behavior of others. ___28___

___34___
In order to teach kids not to be lazy, you have to first try not to be lazy in front of your kids.

It’s going to take time and willpower to condition yourself. ___73___ Start building up that good habit gradually for a more successful habit forming.

Forgive yourself. Forgive yourself for thinking negatively. Forgive yourself for talking without thinking twice. Don’t think negative thoughts about yourself for taking wrong steps or making wrong decisions. This kind of thinking puts your focus on the problem and not the solution.

How to stop glasses fogging up with a face mask
Wearing a mask keeps you safe during the pandemic, but it comes with its own set of challenges. And, one of the biggest drawbacks of wearing a mask is how much your glasses fog up and affect your vision. Taking off your glasses to wipe them clean each time they fog up is not only frustrating, but it can also increase the risk of infection. ____96____Here are some tricks to stop it.
Twist your mask strings.
From the side, once you twist it, the strings will look like the figure eight. This is great for stopping fogging because it redirects your breath by putting slight downward pressure on the top part of the mask. ____97____. This may leave you infected by virus.
Wash your glasses with soap.
If you wash your glasses with soap, this creates a thin film on your lenses which limits fogging. Use a fragrance-free soap and mix it with warm water. ____98____ , and let them air dry. When you wear your glasses next, soap molecules on your lenses should block fogging.
Use tissues.
You can put a tissue under the top part of the mask. ____99____To do this DIY trick properly, you should fold a tissue in half and place the straight edge along the bridge of your nose.
Change the position of your masks and glasses.
____100____ But if you do this there are a few things to keep in mind. Firstly, you need to make sure that your mask still covers your chin (下巴) after you pull it up. And, if your prescription (解决方案) is stronger, this trick could impact your vision and cause increased blurriness (模糊强度).
A．Put your glasses in it
B．Wash your glasses with a soap
C．It will help catch air and damp, keeping your glasses free of fog
D．So the key is to prevent or minimize fogging due to face masks
E．Cover your chin with masks to prevent the need for re-positioning when talking
F．Though, it’s worth noting that it does create a slight gap between the mask and your face
G．Pull up your mask and draw your glasses down, blocking your breath from rising upwards

【导语】本篇是一篇夹叙夹议文，文章通过Jennings女士的一个买房经历，主要说明了当今一个有关买房的社会问题，即买房之前必须检查房屋是否有设施问题，以及在美国购房者人数很多甚至超过房屋的数量的社会现象。
46．根据前文“Sarah Jennings of Bay Shore, New York was ready to buy it, but her real estate agent suggested getting a home inspection.(来自纽约海湾海岸的莎拉·詹宁斯(Sarah Jennings)准备买下这套房子，但她的房地产经纪人建议她去做房屋检查)”以及后文“Jennings said, “I was just depressed.   It was less than perfect.”(詹宁斯说:“我只是很沮丧。它并不完美。”)”可知，空处应是一个过渡句，应该是检查房子的结果，所以G项“After four hours, the home inspector gave Jennings a list of over 20 problems with the “new” home.(四个小时后，房屋检查员给了詹宁斯一张清单，上面写着“新”房子的20多个问题)”符合文意。故选G项。
47．根据后文“Is it safe? Do the electricity and water work well? Is the roof in good condition? What repairs may be necessary? (安全吗?水电正常吗?屋顶状况好吗?可能需要哪些修理?)”可知，空处在本段中的作用为总结下文所列举的房屋问题。后面所有列举的问句都是空处这句话的某个方面，所以A项“The inspector checks on the building.(检查员检查大楼)”符合文意。故选A项。
48．根据后文“Usually a buyer puts down some money (1%-5% of the purchase price) to show intent to buy.       The seller and buyer may need to negotiate before they decide on the price for the house. In Bay Shore, there are more buyers than houses.(通常买家会先付一笔钱(买价的1%-5%)来表示购买意向。卖方和买方在决定房子的价格之前可能需要协商一下。在Bay Shore，买家比房子多)”可知，本段是在讲买房缴费的事，空处位于段首，需起到引领本段的作用，所以C项“After the inspection, Jennings made an offer on the house.(看房后，詹宁斯对那所房子提出了价格)”符合文意。故选C项。
49．分析设空处位于段尾，应是对前文的总结或者承接上文的内容，根据前文“In Bay Shore, there are more buyers than houses.(在Bay Shore，买家比房子多)”可知，B项“So Jennings paid full price and did not negotiate.(所以詹宁斯付了全价，没有谈判)”和前句构成因果关系。故选B项。
50．根据前文“In Bay Shore recently, there were more than 2,000 people interested in buying 52 houses in the new housing project.(最近，在海湾海岸，有超过2000人对购买52套新住宅项目感兴趣)”以及后文“But Jennings is not one of them.(但詹宁斯不是其中之一)”可知，空处句子肯定有一类人的存在，并且还是和jennings所做行为相反，而Jennings果断买房这个行为和“people still looking(正在观望)”恰恰相反，所以D项“Among those people, at least 1,948 families are still looking.(在这些人当中，至少有1948个家庭仍在寻找)”符合文意。故选D项。
