September 23 marks the start of a new season. 36 In Great Britain, the third season of
The year usually has only one name: autumn. But if you travel across the Atlantic, you’ll find that people use both fall and autumn interchangeably when referring to this time of year, making it the only season in the English language with two widely accepted names. 37 .
According to Dictionary.com, fall isn’t a modern name that followed the more
Traditional autumn. The two terms are actually first recorded within a few hundred years, with the term fall being used even a bit earlier.
38 The word is of Germanic origin and meant “picking” or “collecting”, a nod to the
act of gathering and preserving crops in the field before winter. In the 1500s, English speakers began referring to the season separating the hot and cold months as either the fall of the leaf or the spring of the leaf, or fall and spring for short. 39 By the end of the 1600s, autumn, from the French word “automne” and the Latin “autumnus”, had overtaken fall as the standard British term for the third season.
Around the same time England adopted autumn, the first-ever British American colonists
(殖民者) were voyaging to North America. 40 While the former fell out of fashion overseas, it established itself in the local vocabulary by the time America won its independence. Today, using both words to describe the season before winter is still a unique American behavior.
With them they brought the words fall and autumn.
The Americans prefer using fall to using autumn.
However, what exactly you should call that season depends on where you are.
But for some reason, only spring had staying power in Britain.
It is time to gather apples, rice and other things for the farmers.
So what is it about the season that makes it so special
Before either word appeared, the season between summer and winter was known as harvest.

Reasons you're not losing weight
Trying to get rid of the pounds but find it useless A report found that 38 percent of adults in England are obese and 46 percent are overweight. So, why do we find it so hard 36
Your portion sizes are too big.
Portion sizes have expanded over history. Sixty years ago food was more expensive and more scarce and portions were smaller. 37 Thus, controlling your portion sizes by weighing foods helps you to keep the weight off.
You're not sleeping enough.
When dieters have less sleep over a period of time, they long for sugary or high calorie snacks to "wake up". However, it's not the whole story. 38 Because of this, you will hang on to fat.
You're disorganized with the three meals.
Breakfast is "the most important meal of the day" yet more than half of Britons skip it. Actually, it aids your weight loss, making you feel full- until lunchtime without any snacks. 39 That's because late night eaters tend to make worse food choices.
40
We might be told that fruit and grains are beneficial to our health. But even they can keep the fat on if we eat too many of them. For example, fruits are good but many are full of fructose（果糖）, which also contribute to weight gain if eaten in large quantities.
A. You'd better eat nutritious food, B. You're eating too much of good things. C. Here are some of the things we might be getting wrong. D. Besides, eating late at night can largely reduce weight loss chances. E. Now they have grown and contribute to over-eating and unwanted weight gain. F. This won't make you feel better and is indeed a risk factor for weight gain and obesity. G. It also triggers a rise in stress hormone, which demands your body to conserve more energy to cope with waking hours.

I have sometimes given money to beggars. ___16___ Please let me explain why.
First, for every dollar that we give to a beggar, the more profitable we make begging and, comparatively, the less profitable we make working. This is bad, for we want people to work, not beg. Working is productive while begging is at best neutral and often a burden. Second, the beggar who receives the money might spend it on alcohol or drugs. ____17____
When I went to elementary school, I remember that I was very moved by a song named "Streets of London". The song tells a heartbreaking story about some of London's poorest, an old man in particular. Not long ago, however, when I heard the song on the radio, it struck me that the man in the song does not live that horrible a life after all. Judging from the lyrics of the song, the man has shoes, and occasional access to a newspaper. ____18____ So why should you give money to the beggar in the developed world instead of the starving child in Africa
It might be harsh to claim that it is immoral to give money to Western beggars. After all, it seems reasonable that you can spend the money as you like. ____19____ If our aim is to benefit ourselves, then giving money to beggars is not suitable. If our aim is to benefit others, then giving money to beggars is also wasteful.
In seeking to help others, we should not merely give to those who are geographically close to us and whose appearance arouses our sympathy. ____20____ To achieve this, we should first decide how much we are willing to spend helping others, and then donate money to the most efficient charity.
A. Many people die of hunger in Africa.
B. True as it might be, we should spend our money wisely.
C. Why not donate money to those in need of financial aid
D. Upon reflection, however, I have come to change my mind.
E. You almost certainly spend money helping the wrong people.
F. In a world where thousands die of hunger every day, that's a pretty comfortable life.
G. Rather, we should aid those who are the least responsible for the situation they're in.

It’s hard to say why, but it’s just true: music is good for you. It can calm your spirit and help you vent (发泄) your anger. ___16___ But there’s one surprising yet well-documented effect that has really surprised us. Music lessons are very good for language comprehension -- and they might even be better than reading lessons.
___17___ But in this new study from MIT(Massachusetts Institute of Technology), researchers were able to see music lessons improve word comprehension right before their eyes. Led by Robert Desimone, the director of MIT’s McGovern Institute for Brain Research, the team tested 74 children between the ages of four and five to see how their growing language skills were affected by piano lessons.
The 74 participants were divided into three groups. ___18___ The other two had their weekly academic lessons supplemented with three 45-minute lessons per week -- the first got piano lessons and the second took part in reading lessons.
The results The ones who received a little extra learning every week outperformed those who just continued on with their normal studies. ___19___ Perhaps even more surprisingly, the children who took the music lessons even outperformed the ones who took the reading lessons when it came to telling the difference between two words that were very similar.
“That’s a big thing for kids in learning language: being able to hear the differences between words,” Desimone said in a statement. “They really benefited from that.” To the researchers, the results point to one clear conclusion: ___20___
A. It can even be used to improve your memory.
B. It can bring people together and give us hope.
C. So students should have music lessons more often.
D. The control group simply carried on with their normal school classes.
E. Many studies have shown a close link between musical training and language skills.
F. If you’re a school administrator who wants kids to succeed, you’d better not cut those music programs.
G. Even the ones who only took music lessons turned out to perform better on language puzzles than those who didn’t have extra lessons.

Have you ever travelled somewhere without noticing the route you took or the people and landmarks you passed ____16____ A lot of us run around on autopilot (自动驾驶), which means we do things without being aware that we’re doing them, lost in our thoughts instead.
Mindfulness is about training the mind to be in the present moment — to be more aware of what is happening now, rather than what has already happened or what might happen next.
____17____ Mindfulness can be traced back to the religion of Buddhism but it’s now practiced by people of all religions, as well as people who don’t follow any religion.
____18____ Becoming more aware of the present can help us enjoy the world around us. It encourages us to appreciate things we might take for granted. According to the University of Oxford Mindfulness Research Centre, mindfulness can teach us to spot difficult emotions and thoughts and deal with them more easily. ____19____
An important part of mindfulness is tuning in to the five senses — being aware of what you can see, hear, touch, smell and taste. You can try this throughout the day — for example, when going for a walk or eating your dinner. ____20____ Mindfulness requires practice, and lots of people find that sitting quietly and focusing on their breathing helps.
A. It is about observing our thoughts, feelings and surroundings.
B. These are the only ways to help us stay focused on the present.
C. Maybe you’ve swallowed your breakfast without noticing what it tastes like.
D. Mindfulness can improve our concentration, relationships and mental health.
E. We can choose to set aside our worries and concerns that aren’t helpful to us.
F. Despite these emotional benefits, mindfulness sometimes leads to physical harms.
G. Activities that require you to use your hands can also help you become more mindful.

空格前说“To the researchers, the results point to one clear conclusion(对研究人员来说，研究结果指向了一个明确的结论)”，空格处应讲研究结论，或研究给人的启示，F选项“If you’re a school administrator who wants kids to succeed, you’d better not cut those music programs.(如果你是一名希望孩子成功的学校管理人员，你最好不要削减这些音乐课程。)”说明了研究结论，因此F选项承接上文，符合语境，故选F。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了正念的含义、重要性及训练方法。
【16题详解】
根据前文“Have you ever travelled somewhere without noticing the route you took or the people and landmarks you passed ”（你有没有在旅行的时候没有注意到你走的路线或者你经过的人和地标？）提到我们旅行中会忽视我们经过的路线或者经过的人和地标。后文“A lot of us run around on autopilot (自动驾驶), which means we do things without being aware that we’re doing them, lost in our thoughts instead.”（我们中的很多人都是自动驾驶的，这意味着我们在做事情的时候并没有意识到自己在做什么，而是沉浸在自己的思想中。）讲到有时我们在做事情但没有意识到自己正在做这些事情，而是迷失在了我们的思绪中。可推知，空处同样为举例讲述我们做某些事情的时候，因为走神而出现了意料之外的结果。C项“也许你没有注意到早餐的味道，就已经吞下去了”引起下文，符合语境。故选C。
【17题详解】
根据前文“Mindfulness is about training the mind to be in the present moment — to be more aware of what is happening now, rather than what has already happened or what might happen next.”（正念就是训练大脑对当下时刻的专注——更多地意识到正在发生的事情，而不是已经发生的事情或接下来可能发生的事情。）提到正念的定义。所以作为段首句子，要起到承上启下的作用，因此空处应承接前文，讲述正念的内容。A项“它是关于观察我们的思想、感觉和周围的环境的”承接上文，符合语境。故选A。
【18题详解】
根据后文“Becoming more aware of the present can help us enjoy the world around us. It encourages us to appreciate things we might take for granted. According to the University of Oxford Mindfulness Research Centre, mindfulness can teach us to spot difficult emotions and thoughts and deal with them more easily. ”（更多地意识到现在可以帮助我们享受我们周围的世界。它鼓励我们去欣赏那些我们认为理所当然的事情。根据牛津大学正念研究中心的研究，正念可以教会我们发现困难的情绪和想法，并更容易地处理它们。）谈论了正念的重要意义。所以空处应讲述正念的作用。D项“正念可以提高我们的注意力、人际关系和心理健康。”其中“concentration”与后文“Becoming more aware of the present can help us enjoy the world around us.”相呼应；“relationships”与下文“It encourages us to appreciate things we might take for granted.”相呼应；“mental health”与下文中的“mindfulness can teach us to spot difficult emotions and thoughts and deal with them more easily”相呼应。故选D。
【19题详解】
根据前文“According to the University of Oxford Mindfulness Research Centre, mindfulness can teach us to spot difficult emotions and thoughts and deal with them more easily. ”（根据牛津大学正念研究中心的研究，正念可以教会我们发现困难的情绪和想法，并更容易地处理它们。）讲正念可以教会我们去发现消极的情绪和想法，并且更容易地应对它们。因此空处承接前文可以讲述，正念对待我们的消极情绪和想法会如何处理。E项“我们可以选择将对我们来说没有帮助的担忧放在一边”承接上文，符合语境。故选E。
【20题详解】
可知，根据前文“An important part of mindfulness is tuning in to the five senses — being aware of what you can see, hear, touch, smell and taste. You can try this throughout the day — for example, when going for a walk or eating your dinner. ”（正念的一个重要部分是调谐到五种感官——意识到你能看到、听到、触摸到、闻到和尝到的东西。你可以一整天都这样做——例如，当你出去散步或吃晚饭时。）谈论了正念的训练方法。所以空处可以讲述具体的方法。G项“需要你动手的活动也可以帮助你变得更加专注”符合语境。故选G。
