____11____ It is one of the common questions every student comes across in the early days. Most of the students answer based on what they have learned about a career from their teachers or parents or elders.

Ways to Help the Troubled Monarch Butterflies
The monarch butterfly (帝王蝶) is considered an endangered species. Scientists say the dropping number of monarchs is due to climate change, loss of living places and the use of pesticides — chemicals that kill insects — and herbicides — chemicals that kill plants. ____16____
One of the quickest and best ways to help is to plant milkweed on your land. Milkweed is a kind of plant that has white juice. Monarch butterflies eat milkweed and lay their eggs there. ____17____ However, not all milkweed is the same. It is important to choose the right kind of milkweed. Planting tropical milkweed in the United States is a problem because it is not native to the country. It blooms or flowers for longer periods of time. This can make it harder for monarchs to know when it is time to migrate (迁徙).
Other plants, especially those with flowers that have honey, can be helpful to adult monarchs. These plants can be good-quality food for the butterflies. ____18____ Invasive plants can do more harm than good to monarchs. It is a good idea to include plants that flower late in the growing season. These plants can help give monarchs the energy they need for their yearly migration in autumn.
____19____ Chemicals can harm insects, including monarchs. They can also harm birds. Natural or organic poisons may also be harmful. Use them after dark, when butterflies are not as active. When the morning arrives, the product will be dry and not as effective. The butterflies will be safe.
Another way to help monarchs is to create a butterfly water feeding area. Add water to sand in a sunny area. ____20____ Butterflies can rest on the stone, take in the sun and drink the water from the pool. And you can sit and enjoy the beautiful monarchs.
A.They need milkweed to survive.
B.Find an appropriate place for milkweed.
C.Set a flat rock in the middle of the area.
D.You can grow your own ones from seeds.
E.Be sure to choose plants that are native to your area.
F.Next,think about the chemicals you use in your own garden.
G.But there are things that people can do to help the beloved black-and-orange insects.
While we enjoy the convenience the modern technology has brought to us, there has been a growing realization that while we may have innumerable followers and friends on social media, those in the real world are far more limited.

“The sea level rise is upon us,” said Nicole LeBoeuf, director of NOAA’s National Ocean service. ____27____ “That’s because the United States coasts are home to a lot of economic activity and 40 percent of the U.S. population,” LeBoeuf explained.
____28____ “The greatest rise in the U.S. will be on the Gulf of Mexico and East Coast. The West Coast and Hawaii will be below the average,” said William Sweet, who is the report’s lead writer. The report predicts 0.6 meters of sea level rise in St. Petersburg, Florida. But the study predicts just 0.36 meters in Los Angeles, California.
Cities, such as Annapolis, Maryland, and Miami Beach, Florida, already experience a few minor floods every year during high tides, but those will be replaced by several “moderate (中等的)” floods a year by about 2050. “Higher sea levels mean more floods,” Sweet said, “____29____ And many of our major metropolitan (大都市的) areas on the East Coast are going to be increasingly at risk.”

According to psychologist Mark Davis, there are three important types of empathy. Let’s explore each type and the possible impact of each.
Perspective-Taking
This is a more cognitive(认知的) form of empathy, and it involves being able to see things from others’ perspectives. ____32____ Our research shows that perspective-taking is very important in social interactions and for leaders because they need to understand the people they lead and manage to motivate them effectively.
Empathic Concern
It is what we most commonly think of as being empathic. This is being able to “read” other people’s emotions and feelings and to feel appropriate concern for them. Counselors and therapists need it to deeply understand clients’ feelings but not actually experience the other’s emotions. ____33____
Personal Distress
This is indirectly experiencing others’ emotions. If they are happy, we feel happy; if they’re sad, we cry with them. ____34____
____35____ In reality, we all have some level of each of the types of empathy. The key is to understand how we are empathic with others and realize the strengths and limitations of each type of empathy.
A.It is partly emotional and partly cognitive.
B.We need experience personal distress, but too much of it may not be a good thing.
C.Yet empathy isn’t as simple as “more empathy is better”.
D.This helps us understand where other people are coming from—their attitudes, viewpoints and emotions, to some extent.
E.Empathy is not just the ability to understand someone’s feelings.
F.These types of empathy represent different aspects of our personalities.
G.This is the reason to teach the next generation what it means to have empathy.
Some people are confident and full of wisdom while remaining true to their beliefs, which comes from self-awareness. Now we’ll share how to develop self-awareness so you can practice mindful living.
____36____
Self-awareness is a continuous process that involves constant changes. Those with a growth mindset may be more likely to experience change more frequently. So, make it your goal to often pause and think about who you are and where you are and build toward where you’re going.
Be more of a listener
The most common mistake that a lot of us make is that we always want to be heard. But how can we better understand ourselves if we don’t take the time to listen and accept feedback from others? ____37____. Listening will give you a true sense of how other people perceive your character, giving you a better understanding of who you are.
Take a 3rd-person point of view of self- awareness
When someone has made mean remarks about you, you likely feel hurt. But have you tried taking the perspective of a 3rd-party? ____38____. Negative thoughts can prevent you from having a sense of self-awareness.
Treat yourself
____39____, which shifts the shape of who you essentially are. Whatever situations you are in, your goal should always be to come back to yourself.

We could separate those from things in which we have no particular mental or emotional involvement by creating a “Circle of Concern”.
____42____, it becomes apparent that there are some things over which we have no real control and others that we can do something about. We could identify those concerns in the latter group by limiting them within a smaller Circle of Influence.
Proactive (积极主动的) people focus their efforts on the Circle of Influence. ____43____. The nature of their energy is positive, enlarging and magnifying, causing their Circle of Influence to increase.
Reactive people, on the other hand, focus their efforts on the Circle of Concern. ____44____, the problems in the environment, and circumstances over which they have no control. Their focus results in blaming and accusing attitudes, reactive language, and increased feelings of sadness.
____45____—to be a better listener, to be a more loving marriage partner, to be a better student, to be a more cooperative and dedicated employee. Sometimes the most proactive thing we can do is be happy, just to genuinely smile. Happiness, like unhappiness, is a proactive choice. There are things, like the weather, which our Circle of Influence will never include. But as proactive people, we can carry our own physical or social weather with us. We can be happy and accept those things that at present we can’t control, while we focus our efforts on the things that we can.

Sometimes it seems like there are never enough hours in the day. But with a bit of time management, you can make time for the things you need to do, like housework. Here are some tips on how to manage your time for housework.
___46___ Don’t try to do too much in one day or week. Spread out your housework over a period of days or weeks so that it doesn’t seem so overwhelming. “I’m going to clean the entire house today” rarely goes well and will just make you feel defeated.
Make a list. Once you know what needs to be done, make a list of the tasks and prioritize them. ___47___ You can also create checklists for things throughout the house so you can just move from one task to another.
Try to clean as you go. Have you ever noticed dishes are easier to wash if you wash them off immediately? This doesn’t mean that you have to clean up every single thing as soon as you finish using it. ___48___ This will save you time in the long run and help keep your house more organized.
Use your time wisely. ___49___ For instance, if you are vacuuming(用真空吸尘器),move all the furniture in the room first so that you don’t have to keep stopping and starting. Don’t dust before you vacuum; you’ll just have to redo everything later.
Reward yourself. When you’ve finished all your tasks, give yourself a pat on the back or a good treat like a good cup of coffee. This will help you stay motivated and look forward to the next time you have to do housework. ___50___
A.Set realistic expectations.
B.Set aside some time each day or week for housework.
C.But if you can, try to put things away and tidy up as you go.
D.Make sure you use your time wisely and take breaks between tasks.
E.Make sure you are using your time efficiently while you are cleaning.
F.Housework is always going to be a bit of a heavy task, but it shouldn’t be terrible.
G.This will help you focus on what needs to be done first and prevent you forgetting anything.
In this article, we want to present why nature conservation and the promotion of sustainable development principles are important.
Environmental protection prevents natural disasters. Nature struggles for balance. This is how forests absorb CO2, grow and change it into oxygen. This provides an opportunity for life and also slows down climate change. The destruction of forests greatly changes the climate of entire regions, or even causes powerful floods. ____51____
Environmental protection stimulates research and technological innovation. The idea for the first flying machine was inspired by bird observation. The rainforest is the richest source of many medicines. Almost every animal and plant has its own technical secrets. ____52____ With the disappearance of ecosystems and wildlife species, the base for scientific research and technical improvement is nowhere to find.
Protecting the environment is protecting people. The loss of natural resources leads to economic crises, wars or diseases. ____53____ For example, the reduction of the population of bees will affect not only the production of honey, but also the whole food production system. No bees — no honey, no fruit, very few vegetables. This leads to hunger, disease, migration and war.
____54____ We meet with like-minded people. Any local success — the rescue of an endangered population for reserves — becomes a cause for global joy and inspires more participation.
We humans are part of nature and its cycles ourselves. Our impact on ecosystems has noticeable influence on our daily lives. But it can be predicted and avoided if you think with your head and act carefully. ____55____ Even small deeds can improve the state of nature and our life on the planet.
A.People spy on them and copy.
B.We are strongly dependent on it.
C.Respect for ecosystems helps to avoid such troubles.
D.And positive change can be promoted in the same way.
E.Taking part in environmental protection is a source of joy.
F.We consume the world’s natural resources in our daily life.
G.Even small changes in the ecosystem can cause huge disasters.
The New York Times reported that phone calls have made a comeback during the pandemic.

That’s more than double the calls made on Mother’s Day, which is one of the busiest days of the year for phone calls. ____56____ Similarly, AT&T Inc. reported that the number of cell calls has increased by 35%.
____57____ And there’s nothing like creating a big family get-together by cramming everyone on a screen. It’s great that you can see the people you’re talking to.

It will improve your cardiovascular(心血管的)health. ____61____ That's because when you're cycling, your heart will beat much faster than it usually does, which is something that promotes good heart health.
It will strengthen and tone your muscles. Working out regularly will help you to keep a lean body. When you are cycling you are not only exercising the muscles in the front of your legs, but also in your back, arms, and core. ____62____ A number of studies have shown that the more someone cycles, the healthier their muscles are.
____63____ There is a lot of scientific research that supports the idea that exercising helps to decrease stress levels. Therefore, if you find that you are getting stressed too often, then you should consider purchasing a bike and going for a cycle two to three times a week.
It improves your brain power. Cycling is an activity that helps with the formation of brain cells in your hippocampus(海马体), the area of your brain that is used for memory and starts to decline once you pass thirty. ____64____ Researchers also have found that just a 5% increase in cardiorespiratory(心肺的)fitness from jumping on a bike can lead to a 15% increase in mental tests.

What is empathy?
Empathy is the ability to share and understand the feelings or emotions of others.
Types of empathy
There are three different ways to think of empathy. First, there is affective empathy. This is the ability to share the emotions of others. For example, someone watching a scary movie may feel scared when a character is scared. Second, there is cognitive empathy. This is the ability to understand the feelings of others. A good example is a counselor. Counselors may understand that someone they are speaking to is sad, but that does not mean the counselor becomes sad. Finally, there is emotional regulation. ____76____. For example, doctors need to control their emotions when doing surgery on a patient. They cannot be afraid of hurting them or sad for them because they are sick.

For example, strong positive empathy feelings for members of our own family might lead to negative emotions like hate toward those we see as a threat. ____78____. For instance, people might feel more empathy for people who look or act like them. People who are good at reading others’ emotions might also trick other people for their own benefit.
Measuring stick
____79____ . These typically ask people to tell how much they agree with certain statements. They might say they strongly agree or they disagree. One statement might be, “It affects me very much when one of my friends is upset.” This would measure how much affective empathy someone normally feels.
Our brain has evolved to be able to quickly change under different circumstances. ____80____ . It can help us to understand others so we can help them. Sometimes, though, we need to be able to switch off our empathetic feelings to protect our own lives and those of others.
A.Having empathy is very useful
B.Empathy is often measured with surveys
C.This refers to the ability to control one’s emotions
D.Sometimes it could be helpful to feel less empathy
E.People experience pleasure when their opponent fails
F.Sometimes we may feel too much empathy for our own groups
G.Empathy helps humans respond appropriately to different situations
There is no doubt that adding more fish to your diet is something that a lot of people look to do. After all, there are so many health benefits that are naturally associated with eating more fish. At the same time, many people find it difficult to add fish to their diet in the way that they would like. ____81____
In the first place, let’s begin with some of the benefits of eating more fish. Fish has been spoken about as being part of a healthy diet for a long time now. ____82____ Many types of fish are filled with omega-3 fatty acids, as well as various types of vitamins like D and B2. Each fish has its own positive qualities, so it is certainly worth looking up what sort of benefits that you can expect to receive.____83____
If you are struggling to add more fish to your diet at all, it may be a good idea to get it done straight away in the morning rather than waiting around any longer than necessary. This can be done by simply having some smoked salmon on top of bread. Alternatively, you can try having some roasted salmon with some fruit such as a pineapple for a change.
Use fish in simple dishes
Sometimes, people are simply afraid of eating more fish as they do not really know how to add it to their diet. One possible way of getting around this is by having fish in simple dishes. For example, rather than having your usual chicken or beef hamburgers, you can try putting some cod (鳕鱼) in there instead. ____84____ So it is going to be ready for use whenever you need it for a meal.
Hopefully, the information that you have received about fish has helped to convince you that it is certainly something that needs to be included into more and more meals. ____85____ Some simple preparation work ahead of time can certainly help you out in a significant way here.
A.Start with fish at breakfast.
B.Include a more fish-filled diet.
C.Also, you can cook some cod in advance.
D.You can read the blog post to get some help.
E.There are plenty of reasons why this is the case.
F.Plus, it does not have to be very difficult to do so.
G.Hopefully, the information above might be useful for you.

____88____ Taking responsibility for the way you behave towards others and, possibly even more importantly, how you treat yourself, is a crucial aspect of emotional intelligence.
● ____89____
Empathy is a cornerstone of EQ. It is defined as the ability to identify and share the thoughts, feelings or emotional state of another person. A little empathy goes a long way. It is important to demonstrate empathy towards people other than just those with whom you find it easy to get along.
● Listen actively.
Engage in the moment and acknowledge what other people are saying. ____90____ Active listening involves asking open-ended questions such as ‘When?’ ‘How?’ ‘Do you mean...?’ or ‘Could you tell me a bit more about that?’. Active listening also calls for avoiding questions that would get only a ‘yes’ or ‘no’ response.
Developing your emotional intelligence can not only help you reduce your stress, but also leave you with more time to connect with, and continuously improve your relationships with, those around you.
A.Show your care.
B.Put yourself in other people’s shoes.
C.You just don’t know what they might be going through.
D.You must remember you can choose how you react to a situation.
E.Besides, trying to identify exactly what you are feeling can do the trick.
F.Try to avoid just waiting for your turn to talk about yourself and your story.
G.Exploring and improving these skills can help you to succeed in your career.
All parents have sky-high hopes for their children. We want them to be confident and satisfied. What can parents do to help their kids grow up to lead happy lives? Experts advise:
____91____. A study found that students whose parents paid attention to their abilities were far more likely to do well in school-and in life-than students whose parents didn’t show such support. So celebrate your kids’ achievements, no matter how small they are.
Praise their efforts. ____92____. Still, they are praised for trying their best. Ten-year-old April Cutler, for example, has had trouble with math since the second grade. “She usually gets C’s on her report card, but last year she was determined to get A’s and worked hard at it,” says her mom. “When the first grading period ended, April was disappointed when she got a B in math,” Lueille continues. “But my husband and I told her we were very proud that she’d improved. That inspired her to try even harder. ____93____.”
Let them make decisions and mistakes. ____94____. And allowing kids to make wrong decisions-so long as doing so won’t harm them-helps kids learn from their mistakes.
Encourage them to solve their own problems. As they grow, children need practice in communicating and standing up for themselves. One of the best places to learn these skills is at home. ____95____ the next time your child runs to tell you that her brother is blaming her.
A.Applaud their achievements
B.Step back and let them work it out
C.She got a B plus for the next period
D.Kids won’t always come out on top
E.Setting too high a goal makes kids feel discouraged
F.Give advice on how to help kids become mature
G.Making his/her own decisions builds his/her confidence
Studying smarter, not longer, matters now more than ever, with students in many countries having to manage their time and study more on their own. ____96____ The good news: Science points to ones that really work.
Use pictures. Pay attention to drawings, graphics, chart and other visual aids in your class materials, psychologist Mark McDaniel says. “____97____ And if there aren’t pictures, creating them can be really, really useful.”
Find examples. Abstract concepts can be hard to understand. It tends to be far easier to form a mental image if you have a concrete example of something, psychologist Cynthia Nebel says. For instance, sour foods usually taste that way because they contain an acid.____98____ But if you think about a lemon or vinegar, it’s easier to understand and remember that acids and sour go together.
____99____ Psychologist Nate Komell “definitely did cram (临时抱佛脚)” before big tests when he was a student. He still thinks it’s a good idea to study the day before a big test. But research shows it’s a bad idea to cram all your studying into that day. Instead, allow time between study sessions and you’ll learn and remember material better.
Dig deeper. It’s hard to remember a string of facts and figures if you don’t push further. Ask why things are a certain way. How did they come about? Why do they matter? Psychologists call this elaboration. “It’s asking a lot of how and why questions about it,” Nebel says.____100____
Try adding just one new study skill each week or two. It may seem odd at first. But, by the time week two rolls around, it becomes a normal thing.
A.Reread books and notes.
B.Space out your studying.
C.They really boost your memory of the material.
D.Yet many students have never learned those skills.
E.In other words, don’t just accept facts at face value.
F.On its own, that concept might be hard to remember.
G.It’s like telling students to learn to swim by “just swimming.”
