Misinformation and other attempts at misleading the public are common on social media. 1_________
Never share a post without fact checking.
This is especially true if it comes from a source you trust. If you want to spread truth, you need to assume that other people aren’t perfect and may make mistakes. 2____________
Look for the source.
Mainstream news is as good as the sources it relies on. Stories coming from only a single source or anonymous sources are more suspect than stories with multiple sources of confirmation. 3_________ Many important leaks and stories have come from single anonymous sources.
Consider the story’s agenda.
Stories are influenced by the agendas of their writers. News organizations typically operate for money, and part of their brand (and thus their profits) lies in their accuracy. However, many news groups tailor their content to particular sections of customers, and thus are more likely to cover stories with a particular perspective. 4____ Consequently, the stories are turned into preference with the preconceptions of their target audience.
5________
Injustices are things that make any ethical person upset or angry. A story that promotes emotion is not automatically false just because it arouses strong feelings. Unfortunately, cheaters know the power of emotion and use that tool in their work. Therefore, fact check before you share
A. Don’t view stories with caution.
B. This can weaken their accuracy.
C. It doesn’t mean that they are false.
D. In this way you will be more cautious.
E. Don’t discount stories that play to emotions.
F. The following tips may help you surf the Internet safely.
G. Here are some steps to take to separate yourself from misinformation.

“Did you ever eat so fast that you bit your cheek or tongue because you mistook it for food ” Professor Lilian Cheung of Harvard University once asked in a survey. 6__________
“To slow down the pace, you’ll need to practice mindful eating, ” Cheung advised. “7__________ In addition, you should take the time to express gratitude for you meal. Not only is mindful eating good for digestion, it also allows you to become much more aware of the food you have, how you get it and what it takes to be about to have that ”.
Here are some of the tips offered by Cheung.
First of all, remove all distractions while you eat---including your cell phone. They can interfere with your ability to enjoy your food and notice when you are full. 8_________. It takes about that time for your body to get the signal to the brain that you are full.
You might wonder how to spend 20 whole minutes eating a meal. One way to slow down is to ask yourself such questions as “How many people are still hungry today ”9__________ For example, you can try to notice the smell, the texture and whatever senses that arise as you eat.
Actually chew. It is an important part of digestion. It helps break up the food so it’s easier for absorption.
10________ If you’re eating potato chips, for example, you might thank the universe for the right climate to have that potato, the manpower engaged in making it available, and the transportation to get the chips to the supermarket.
A. Make sure your cell phone is face down.
B. Then stretch your mealtime to 20 minutes.
C. It is a good idea to start with your family or friends.
D. The result showed that most of the interviewees had done it.
E. When you sit down to eat, spend about 40 minutes doing so.
F. You may also think about the effort it took to get the food onto the table.
G. Another way is to engage your senses and think through all the details about the meal.

Onions can be used in so many dishes, so it’s a great idea to buy them in large quantities. 11__________ The other thing that makes onions a great candidate for buying in large quantities is their long shelf life. When stored properly, onions can last months. Here are some tips.
Store onions in a well-ventilated place. 12_________ A paper bag, basket or a cardboard box will provide better ventilation. Make sure they’re placed loosely so air will have a chance to circulate around them.
13__________ Whole onions will go bad faster if they’re exposed to too much moisture(水分). This means it isn’t a good idea to store them in your refrigerator. Anywhere where they’ll be protected from heat or sunlight will generally be the best options.
Do not store onions with apples or potatoes. Potatoes release moisture, which will cause your onions to go bad more quickly. 14_________ So unless you want your apple pie to taste like onions, it’s good practice to make sure they are stored separately.
How to store cut onions Although you shouldn’t store whole onions in the refrigerator, once you’ve cut an onion, you’ll want to store the remainder in the refrigerator to maintain freshness. Just be sure to store the leftover pieces in an airtight container. 15._______
A. Store onions somewhere cool and dry.
B. Great ventilation(通风) often means low temperature.
C. That means fewer trips to the store and larger discounts.
D. In the freezer, cut onions can last about eight months.
E. Or you’ll run the risk of your entire fridge smelling of onions.
F. If you buy onions in a plastic bag, remove it as soon as you get home.
G. Another way is to engage your senses and think through all the details about the meal.

Best Money-Saving Tips
Saving money doesn’t have to be hard. Even if you don’t earn that much, there are many simple and creative ways for you to spend less and take control of your finances.
Automate good financial habits. If you want to save a certain amount of money each month, automate it ! 16__________ Most banks allow you to create automatic transfers between accounts , so you could set up a rule to move a set amount from your checking to your savings account every month.
Maintain your motivation with clear goals. 17_____________ Reminding yourself of these concrete things can help during times when money is a bit tight. For example, if one of your money management goals is to lower your debt, you could keep a tracker showing how much you’ve paid off.
Take your time on big purchases. Impulse buying can have consequences no matter what you purchase, but large large purchases are especially impacting. Consider having a time limit on purchases over a certain amount. If you decide to upgrade your TV, don’t just purchase it immediately. 18________ Waiting to purchase something gives you the chance to really consider the purchase and decide whether it’s worth the money.
19________ The best thing you can do to help yourself stay motivated is know your financial priorities. The unclear goal of “good financial management” isn’t always enough to help during those times when saving money is hard. 20______Do you want to be able to pay for your child’s college tuition Try to narrow down your financial priorities and you can make questionable spending decisions.
A. Figure out your priorities.
B. Instead, make yourself wait a bit.
C. Make realistic, detailed goals for yourself.
D. Find a budgeting method you can stick to.
E. You may be able to shift some of your paycheck automatically.
F. There are countless way s to make a budget and track your expenses.

阅读下面短文， 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。
Imagine you’ve been working for hours before a deadline, but you feel like you’re getting nowhere. You’re starting to feel really anxious. At this point, you might start to blame yourself for having this emotion. Now you have two emotions:feeling anxious about getting work down and feeling frustrated that you are anxious. When the second emotion gets layered on top of the first emotion, you often feel worse and are even less likely to reach your goals. You may now be wondering if it is possible to make the second emotion less likely. 21________
Many people have heard of “mindfulness”. It is often associated with doing a meditation(冥想) practice, but its essence is to be more aware and accepting of your present-moment experience. 22______ Acceptance can limit judgmental thoughts and unhelpful secondary emotions.
Let me explain. Picture yourself in a challenging situation like the scenario described above and you feel anxiety arising. Instead of getting upset at yourself for having this emotion, you bring your awareness to the experience of the emotion and accept it. You might feel that this anxiety is not fun to experience. 23______ with this attitude of acceptance, and stepping away from the tendency to fight against the emotion, you are less likely to get stuck in a loop of judgemental thoughts that might trigger more unwanted emotions.
24_______ But evidence suggests that it works. That is probably because accepting yourselves, including your emotions, relieves pressure. You stop adding fuel to the emotional fire when you release judgmental thoughts about your emotions. 25________ For instance, you could turn down the volume on the initial emotion, perhaps by seeing the situation from a new perspective or asking someone for support.
A. Thankfully, research suggests that the answer is yes.
B. You can’t be productive even when you have more inner space.
C. Then you may question if you are feeling anxious about getting work done.
D. Yet you know you can breathe it through and that it is just a passing emotion.
E. Sometimes the experience includes an unpleasant emotion you don’t want to feel.
F. It might sound unreasonable that embracing an unpleasant emotion can be a good thing.
G. You also create more inner space to determine whether you can do something that helps.

How You Open Your Car Door Matters to Cyclists
The “Dutch Reach” isn’t a new dance move or a random challenge.26__________ And you might keep your car door safe in the process, too. All you have to do is change how you open your door.
Typically, a person sitting in the driver’s seat of a car opens the door with the hand closest to it. 27_____ Pull the handle and the door is open. For most drivers and passengers, this movement feels natural and effortless because it has become second nature over time. But if you happen to do that at the wrong time, you may unknowingly create an obstacle for a passing cyclist. The cyclist might be knocked down off the bike. 28._________ Clearly, the solution is for the person exiting the vehicle to check for traffic. However, the car door design and longtime habits have made the process automatically.
29________ Open your car door with your other hand using the Dutch Reach. So instead of using your left hand, reach for the door handle with your right. This will force you to turn your body. At the very least, you’ll look into your side view mirror to check for any traffic. All Dutch are taught it and used to opening their car doors this way. It’s part of regular driver education. The technique dates back about 50 or 60 years in the Netherlands. In 2016 an American named Michael Charney started the Dutch Reach Project. He wanted to popularize the practice in the US and his efforts seem to be paying off. 30__________
A. It is easy to do once you are used to it.
B. Luckily, there’s a simple way to solve the problem.
C. People are trying to change the way to open the car.
D. It’s a simple move that can help prevent harm to cyclists.
E. The car door is likely to be damaged by the fast-moving bicycle.
F. It makes sense since doors are designed to be opened that way.
G. Several states now include the Dutch Reach in their drivers’ handbooks.

Willpower goes by many names: drive, determination, self-discipline, self-control and resolve. 31_______ It helps you achieve a variety of goals, from exercising to saving money, and improve your physical well-being, and makes you feel happier and more fulfilled in your life. Some people believe this skill can be learned and strengthened. Fortunately, researchers have come to a similar conclusion and offered some tips.
Work it like a muscle. Just like any muscle, willpower can be built up and strengthened with time and effort. It is a good idea to do something simple but challenging. For example, use your left hand instead of your right hand to open doors. You can also turn the light off every time you leave a room, 32__________
Get enough sleep. Bad sleeping habits, such as getting too little or too much sleep, wear you out, both physically and mentally. This, in turn, affects your ability to resist temptation. Therefore, it’s necessary to get enough sleep. 33________ But according to the National Sleep Foundation, most adults need seven to nine hours of sleep each night to function at their best.
Meditate. Meditation is one of the most powerful ways to increase willpower. 34________ Meditation is something you can do anywhere and anytime. A five-minute meditation session in the morning or during your lunch break really counts.
35_______ When facing a temptation, whether it’s the desire to eat, drink or spend money, try the “out of sight, out of mind” method. Or better yet, physically remove the temptation from your environment. If you can’t do that, then temporarily remove yourself from the temptation. You might go for a walk, call a friend, or engage in a hobby until the urge passes.
A. Avoid temptations.
B. Face temptation bravely.
C. Everyone’s sleep needs are different.
D. Willpower impacts every area of your life.
E. People with good sleep quality tend to meditate regularly.
F. Engaging in these relatively easy tasks for a couple of weeks will boost your willpower.
G. Research shows that regular mindfulness meditation can improve your focus and self-control.

Being an Earthing isn’t easy these days. 36_______ But we can help reduce such natural disasters if we start consuming less and recycling the waste we are making at home.
Give up fast fashion. Trends move so quickly these days and most of us have a strong desire to follow whatever trend is “in ” right now. 37_______ If we want to reduce fashion waste, ask ourselves whether we will wear it at least 30 times before we buy a new item of clothing. This question can help us buy clothes that will stay with us for a long time.
38_______ Freezing can lock in flavor and nutrients. In addition, it is one of the best ways to keep fresh produce from rotting. It is estimated that roughly half of all food waste occurs during the consumption stage and about 8% of greenhouse gas emissions come from wasted food.
Cut back on plastic by figuring out how much we use and why. Plastic waste has already become a huge environmental and social problem. 39______ The most effective thing we can do to cut back on plastic waste is figure out how much we use. Go room by room and check the plastics in our home. Not only will this help us understand how much plastic we use, but how we’re using it. 40________
Each of these actions might seem small, but they can add up and make a big difference in the long run.
A. Switch to fresh produce at home.
B. Freeze produce we can’t use right away.
C. But that leads to more clothes in landfills.
D. That way, we can make a plan for how to cut back.
E. But reducing its use in our home today still has an impact.
F. We have to face remarkably more climate-related threats each year.
G. No matter where we are, the effects of natural disasters are vast and real.

This has been a record year for people taking vacations and making trips abroad. But as many travelers learn, communicating with people in other parts of the world can be difficult. A language you studied in high school can be useful in many situations. 41_____ This is because knowing a language and being able to effectively communicate with it aren’t the same thing.
42_________ but they vary by country and sometimes even by region. These include politeness routines and the appropriate degree of formality to use when interacting with others. Some languages, like German or Spanish, have formality baked right into their vocabulary and grammar. Many language instructors suggest acquiring more formal constructions used in the target language. 43_______ However, this also means that a non-native speaker runs the risk of sounding like an oddly formal caveman.
These communicative differences aren’t only linguistic, either. Consider something as basic as making eye contact with or greeting people you encounter on the street. 44_______ But in a different location, failing to make eye contact or acknowledge others might mark you as rude or unfriendly. This is true in the US---the unwritten social rules governing looking someone in the eye or saying hello are different in urban areas and in rural settings.
In addition, you must have some knowledge of the language’s slang and idioms to avoid being offensive. The danger is that the appropriateness of such expressions is different in different social settings. 45_______
A. Making eye contact is part of communication.
B. In some places, doing so is considered impolite.
C. Using idioms correctly can be a challenging task.
D. Each culture has its own set of social rules and routines.
E. People with good sleep quality tend to meditate regularly.
F. That’s because being overly polite is less likely to offend than being too familiar.
G. However, even a well-intentioned tourist might annoy or offend native speakers of the language.

Even if you’re good with people, there are likely times when you’re stuck for something more to say. Here are some tips for you to come up with good conversation topics.
Ask the other person questions about themselves. The biggest secret to being a good conversationalist is simply allowing other people to talk about themselves. Why 46______ To start, try these strategies: Ask for their opinion. You could tie it to what’s currently happening in the room, current events, or whatever else you may want to discuss.
47_______ You know the old rule: Never talk about religion, politics, money, relationships or family problems. The risk of saying something offensive is too high, so just stay clear; these are often emotionally charged issues as well.
Discuss interests and hobbies. People are complex, with different interests, hobbies, likes and dislikes. Discussing your interests and hobbies with other people, and inquiring about theirs is a great way to start and continue a conversation. Questions you could ask include : Do you play or follow any sports What do you like to read 48_________
Ask about past travel adventures. 49_______ Even if they have never left their hometown, they will likely be happy to talk about where they would want to go. Specifically, you could ask : If you had a chance to move to any other country, which one would it be and why Of all the cities in the world you’ve visited, which one was your favourite
Offer a genuine compliment.

Tips for Starting a Plant-based Diet
The benefits of a plant-based diet are many-from increased energy and better heart health to helping fight climate change and saving money. 51______ The following tips will help you ease your way into the world of plant-based eating.
Consider style and frequency. Some people decide right then and there that they will never eat a little meat again; some people select to slip into it slowly. 52________ If you want to start slowly, you can start by giving up meat one day or more a week or during certain times of the day.
Don’t fall into the refined carbs (碳水化合物) trap. We go vegetarian and replace that meat food in our diet with easy and inviting refined carbs: French fries, chips, you name it. They will not make you feel better; they will make you feel worse. Make sure to have healthy snacks around, and start your effort with a thoughtful menu plan. 53________
Buy some cookbooks. While it might seem that the Internet’s plenty of food blogs have made cookbooks outdated, nothing could be further from the truth. 54______ Having a few good ones will improve the pleasure of your cooking tasks at hand. Looking through the vegetarian section at a bookstore will introduce you to the wide variety of styles out there.
55_________ Eating out might be a luxury, but when you start a new eating plan, it can be a helpful resource. Learning how the professionals handle vegetarian cuisine can be inspiring. From high-end plant-based restaurants to your local supermarket salad bars, you can get a great sense of the wonderful range of flavors and possibilities that can be made without animal-based ingredients.(香料)
A. Eat out and call it research.
B. Study up on the nutrition of whole grains.
C. Cookbooks provide something that the Internet can’t.
D. That way, you don’t end up hungry and reaching for the carbs.
E. It’s a good idea to consider your style goals and start from there.
F. You’re making delicious, satisfying, amazing meals out of raw vegetables.
G. Not to mention the peace of mind with no longer eating cute cows and smart pigs.

How to Always Be Happy
It is normal to feel happier at certain times than others, but that doesn’t mean that you can’t find constant happiness in your life. 56_______
Learn to love yourself.
Learning to love yourself is important for happiness because it means that you have accepted yourself for who you truly are. This satisfaction can help increase your contentment and confidence. Write down a list of things that you love about yourself. 57________ Read love this list when your self-respect is low.
Tell yourself that you can overcome anything.
People often become what they believe themselves to be. 58______, it makes you incapable of doing it. Instead, remind yourself that you can handle anything. If you’re faced with a problem or an obstacle, instead of giving up, tell yourself, “I can do this ” and treat it as an opportunity to learn something new.
Avoid comparing yourself to other people
59_______ so it is useless to compare yourself to other people. Remind yourself of your own successes, talents, and opportunities. Base your happiness on what you have achieved, not on what others have done. Social media can cause people to compare themselves to others. If this is a problem for you, consider reducing how much time you spend on social media.
60________
Balance is important in all aspects of your life. Give yourself enough time to devote to your work, social life, family activities, personal interests, exercise, and relaxation time. If you struggle with creating a work-life balance, try making a daily schedule. Block off time for relaxation and social activities. Don’t let work run into that time.

In today’s fast-paced world, effective studying is essential for academic success. However, the common misconception is that studying hard means studying smart. The truth is that studying smart allows you to enhance your efforts and achieve better results without tiring yourself out too much. Then, how can you study smart
Set clear and achievable goals. This is the first step towards studying smart. 61_____ By setting specific goals, you can focus your efforts and measure your progress effectively. Moreover, clear goals provide a sense of direction and motivation, ensuring that you stay on track and avoid aimless studying.
62________ Studying smart doesn’t mean you have to go it alone. Reach out for help when you need it. Cooperate with classmates or form study groups to discuss concepts, clarify doubts, and exchange ideas. Additionally, don’t hesitate to seek help from teachers, tutors, or academic advisors. 63_________
Practice time management. Efficient time management is key to studying smart. Learn to identify and avoid time-wasting activities, such as overuse of social media or aimless Internet browsing. Research suggests that regular breaks can enhance focus and prevent mental burnout. 64_______ For example, you can set aside certain times for leisure and relaxation. Engaging in physical activities, practicing mindfulness, or pursuing hobbies during breaks can further boost productivity by reducing stress and increasing overall well-being.
Prioritize effective techniques. Not all study techniques are created equal. 65______ You just experiment with various techniques to find what suits you best and invest your time and effort accordingly.
A. Seek support when needed .

Here are four simple ways to find social support as an educational professional.
66______. One of the simplest things you can do to feel more socially connected at work is recognize and acknowledge the goodness around you. 67________.

If you’re struggling to identify people in your support network at school, you might also consider joining a wellness group for educators. 70_______, but it’s an investment in the kind of “meeting ” you can look forward to. And studies suggest that when teachers participate in groups that feature well-being practices, they report improvements in personal well-being and their ability to provide more emotional support in their classrooms.
A. Share appreciation for your workmates
B. So , don’t wait for your workmates’ appreciating you

How to Deal with Stress at School
It’s natural to experience school-related stress at school. 71______ This article lists several strategies for dealing with school stress.
Replace negativity with positive self-talk.
Quietly repeat positive affirmations to calm and refocus your mind. Repeating positive affirmations can really give you a boost and help bring stress under control. Speak quietly to yourself if you can, or just do your self-talk in your head. 72______
Make a schoolwork schedule.
Good time management and good stress management are connected. It’s really tough to stay calm when you have much homework starting back at you! 73______ Stick to a daily schedule to keep things manageable so you’re never left with a tower of work to complete by tomorrow. You might set aside a daily block of time right after school for homework, and right after dinner for studying, for example.
74________
Lower your stress level by keeping things easy to find and accessible. In school or out of school, it’s really stressful when you can’t find something you need! Help prevent this stress by taking some time to organize the main areas where you keep your school stuff and do your studying. Designate specific spots for things like books, folders, and office supplies, and get into the habit of putting things where they belong as soon as you’re done with them.
Exercise to reduce stress.
75________ For the best results, combine moderate-intensity aerobic exercises like biking, swimming, and speed walking with resistance training (such as weight lifting) and flexibility exercises. In addition to being good for your overall health, exercise releases endorphins, the little “ happy-makes” in your brain that keep you feeling good.
A. Get to know your stress response .
B. Keep your school stuff organized.
C. Change the circumstances that cause your stress.
D. But school stress is also something you can successfully manage.
E. Instead, plan out your time to help prevent your work from piling up.
F. 30 minutes of daily workout can reduce stress and increase happiness.
G. Use focused and relevant affirmations like “ I am a good person just the way I am”.

Self-discipline is the ability to push yourself forward, stay motivated and take action, regardless of how you’re feeling, physically or emotionally. 76_______ Now let’s look at some practical science-backed strategies to become more self-disciplined in life.
Choose a goal.
Begin by choosing just one goal that you want to focus on to develop your self-discipline. For example, perhaps you want to start exercising every evening. You could even practice self-discipline on very small goals such as concentrating on a book for an hour without checking your messages, or avoiding unhealthy food for one day. 77________
Find your motivation.
78________ Try to express these reasons in a positive way. Instead of saying “ I want to get this task off my to-do list”, say “ I want to do this task so that I can meet my objective and feel satisfied with myself!” When you list the positive reasons whey you want to achieve something, you’ll find it much easier to get the job done.
Identify barriers.
Now you need to identify the barriers that you’ll like face when working towards your goal. Imagine that your goal is to read one book a week to enhance your reading skills. 79________ For example, when you find a book you like, it’s hard to find time each day to read. Once you’ve identified barriers, come up with a strategy to overcome each one.
80_______
As you work on your self-discipline, pay attention to how you’re feeling. You might feel free, happy, proud and energized. Also, think about keeping a journal to write down your self-discipline goal and to track your progress. This reinforces the positive changes that you’re carrying out in your life, and gives you a record that you can look back on to see the progress that you’ve made.
A. Monitor your progress .
B. Pay attention to your feelings.
C. Understand what helps improve self-discipline.
D. You may face a number of difficulties in reaching this goal.
E. It is a basic life skill that determines success and happiness.
F. Once you’ve chosen a goal, list the reasons why you want to achieve it.
G. Remember, starting small is a good way to start developing your self-discipline.

You may wonder what exactly the professional athletes eat for breakfast to be able to perform impressive physical achievements. 81_______ Brittany Dunn, a chef for the Philadelphia Eagles, has found that what professional athletes eat varies widely among athletes and the sports they play.
“ I have worked with an athlete who prefers two boiled eggs with peanut butter toast and a coffee, an athlete who prefers an acai bowl and sauteed veggies, and an athlete who orders two breakfast sandwiches,” she said. “ 82_____ Besides, the amount of time between eating and the following training session, body composition and sport also matter.”
83_______She said, “Game day is not the day to try new foods. Additionally, having a consistent breakfast routine can help professional athletes feel more mentally prepared for the day ahead.”
As for general caloric needs, professional athletes need to consume more than the average person given the amount of energy they’re using in their respective sports, and to help with recovery. Dunn said she has worked with an athlete who required a 1,000-calorie recovery fruit juice post-training, plus three to four additional meals throughout the day.
“We really need to put a lot of fuel into athletes, so we might give them things like juice or even candy to make them feel more hungry, ” said Dr. Marc Bubbs, a nutritionist of Canada Basketball Team. 84______
The more intense your exercise, the greater your reliance on carbohydrates(碳水化合物). 85______ The male athletes Bubbs has worked with need about 4,000 calories a day while the general recommendation for the average person is around 2,000 calories per day.
A. The short answer: it depends .
B. Women would probably require fewer calories.
C. He was also a consultant for a group of Olympic athletes.
D. Therefore, professional athletes simply need more carbohydrates.
E. A balanced breakfast typically includes protein, fiber and nutrients.
F. In her experience, most athletes eat the same breakfast before every competition.
G. The characteristics of athletes’ breakfast are affected by personal preferences and diets .

Buying green bananas, or any unripe fruit for that matter, is a test of faith. 86_______ But sometimes, when you buy green bananas from the store, they simply refuse to turn, no matter how long you wait. So wht should we do
Placing your bananas in a paper bag for a day or two to help the process along is the first trick to try. 87________ Putting the fruit in a paper bag traps the gas near the fruit, causing it to ripen faster.
But what if your bananas never turn into their ripe yellow color 88________ Not really. As it turns out, green bananas may be healthier than yellow bananas. That is because the green versions contain more resistant starch(淀粉) and take longer to digest than their yellow counterparts, leaving you fuller for longer. That starch turns sugar as the banana ripens. 89_________
So , while you may have to put more effort into enjoying a green banana than a ripe yellow one, there’s plenty to do with the green fruit you have lying around. Here are things you can do with bananas that won’t turn.
If you want to try a new dish using green bananas, slice them into fries as you would do with potatoes or sweet potatoes, and then fry them. 90________ If you have a strong blender, you can take those green bananas and throw them into your morning smoothie. You won’t even be able to taste green bananas, and you’ll still get all the health benefits.
Whichever route you go, take comfort in knowing that you won’t throw away those green bananas, and you may even buy them on purpose next time.
A. Are they a lost cause
B. Is eating green bananas normal
C. When fruit ripens, it gives off a gas.
D. Now you’ve got an addictive, delicious treat.
E. You assume that they’ll soon ripen and be perfect to eat.
F. You’ll want to prepare boiled green bananas with the skin on.
G. So green bananas are preferred by whoever limits sugar intake.

Waking up in the early morning and going for a run might feel frightening when you start trying to make it a habit.
Weaving a significant new activity such as this into your regular routine obviously takes determination and time. 91_________ One popular idea suggests that it takes 21 days to solidify a habit.
“A three-week time frame might sound easily reachable to someone making a resolution on New Year’s Day, when people tend to feel extra motivated to start a new habit or kick an old one, ”says Colin Camerer, a behavioral economist at eh California Institute of Technology who has conducted research on habit formation, 92________ One survey showed that only nine percent of people actually stuck to their goals in 2023.
93________ No matter how long it is for any individual, repetition is the key to making it work. Habit formation can range from a few weeks to a couple of months. The “ three-week theory ” doesn’t really come from habits. It apparently originated from the 1960 self-help book Psycho-Cybernetics, in which plastic surgeon Maxwell Maltz observed that it took his patients about 21 days to get used to their new appearance after surgery. 94_________ But the book applied this 21-day timeline to self-transformation in may other wide-ranging aspects of life. For instance, the book also set three weeks as the time needed for people to get used to a new house or change their mind about their beliefs.
Even without much solid research, the 21-day theory became widely accepted. 95________ Establishing a regular exercise habit in just three days seems too quick and unbelievable, for example, and a year seems too long.
A. Everyone has a unique habit-building timeline .
B. No formal experiment was conducted to check this out.
C. How much time is really needed to make that habit stick

G. Yet every January 21 very few people can say they have kept their resolutions.

阅读下面短文， 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。
The proverb “ Prevention is better than cure. ” is one of those timeless pieces of wisdom. It’s essentially saying that taking care of the small things now can save us from bigger problems later. It’s a simple concept. 96___________
One of the most obvious places where this proverb rings true is in health. It is much easier to maintain a healthy lifestyle than it is to deal with illness. Regular exercise, a balanced diet, and good sleep habits are all preventive measures. 97_______ Once a health problem like heart disease sets in, the “cure” is much more complicated and costly. In fact, many chronic illnesses (慢性病) are preventable with the right habits.
98_________ Often, we ignore signs of stress, anxiety, or burnout until they become most serious. By taking steps to manage stress--whether through mindfulness practice or recreational activities--you can prevent a full-on mental health crisis. In this sense, prevention is also a form of self-care that can lead to a more balanced richer life.
Why don’t we always follow this proverb. One reason would be that prevention requires planning and foresight, which can be difficult when life gets busy. 99________ When something doesn’t go wrong, it’s hard to see the value in the steps you have taken to avoid it. But once we start thinking of prevention as an investment in our future well-being, it gets easier to make it a priority.
100________ The next time you catch yourself thinking, “I’ll deal with that later, ” stop for a second and ask yourself: would a little bit of prevention now save me a whole lot of trouble later
A. So, bring the proverb into your daily life .
B. They can help you avoid serious healthy issues.
C. The same logic applies to our psychological health.
D. They are what maintain a healthy relationship with others.
E. Another reason is that the benefits of prevention are often invisible.
F. Also, it’s human nature to hope things will fix magically themselves.
G. However, its significance becomes clear in almost every aspect of our life.
