W: We are running out of time. If we don’t make it through the security check in the next hour, we’ll probably miss our flight.
M: Oh, look! A new line has started. Let’s hurry up and get in it.
Text 2
W: Do you want to have a salad for lunch
M: No, mum. I need some energy for my afternoon classes. How about some fried eggs or a cheese sandwich
Text 3
W: Your piano playing is so beautiful, Matt! How long have you been playing
M: 11 years! But now I’m 18 and going away to college. I may stop for a while. I’ll need to focus on my studies.
Text 4
W: John, be careful with your foot and don’t move. Just sit and wait for the doctor.
M: OK. I hope it is not serious and that I can get home soon. I want to attend the basketball game next week.
W: I think you should rest at home for at least two weeks.
Text 5
W: Do you think we will be able to get there before it’s crowded I don’t want to drive in heavy traffic.
M: I am worried about finding a parking space. Let’s leave earlier and we should be able to get there before the spaces fill.
Text 6
W: I can’t promise that you’ll get your football career back, but you will recover from your accident.
M: Since the car crash and surgery, all I’ve dreamt about is walking again.
W: With my team’s help and your faith, that dream will come true. Now, slowly stand up. Hold my arm and push yourself forward.
M: I’m trying! My legs are moving a bit.
W: This is excellent progress. I’ll bring you some food and water. I promise, with our daily treatment sessions, you’ll get out of this wheelchair.
M: Thank you. I wouldn’t be able to recover without the nursing care you provided for me.
Text 7
W: Are you OK, John
M: Yeah, just clearing out this cupboard, Emily. It’s full of old junk.
W: Ooh, what a lot of stuff! Is that a…gorilla arm
M: Yes! Ah…that was a fun project.
W: Interesting.
M: Ooh, this is the microphone I recorded my first masterpiece with. A bit dusty. I wonder if it still works. Or maybe I should sell it. Who would buy it
W: Why don’t you freecycle it
M: Oh, that’s a good idea. I can exchange a microphone for a bicycle, right
W: No. You give it away. You give it to someone for free. It’s another way of recycling. There are websites that help match you to people who want these things.
M: Free…recycle. Freecycle. Yes, I like the idea. But I would like a free bicycle even more.
Text 8
W: Although the rain has stopped for a few days, it’s still cold even today.
M: Yes. I heard you went skiing yesterday. Wasn’t it cold in the mountain
W: It wasn’t as cold as today.
M: Right. So did you have fun skiing in the mountain
W: Yes. But I was really nervous at first. It was my first time to ski after all. But Henry encouraged me and taught me how to do it. He was very patient. With his instructions, I was no longer nervous and finally started trying by myself.
M: How long did you ski there
W: Henry skied with me for about half an hour. After that I tried skiing by myself for another half an hour.
M: Did you finally learn to ski
W: Yes. I skied on the easiest run. It wasn’t steep at all. So have you ever skied
M: No. I grew up in the south and it seldom snows there.
W: Then you can try skiing here.
M: That sounds good. I think it’ll be an unforgettable outdoor experience for me.
W: Certainly!
Text 9
W: How is Julie’s new job Do you think she likes it
M: Yes, she seems to like it. Our son Tom was upset not to have his mum around during the day at first, but he and his sister are getting used to it. They have their friends to play with.
W: Well, children do like to have their mother close by—but they have their dad. Julie’s office is nearby, isn’t it
M: Not too far. She could get there on a bike, or even walk there, but I take her in the car every morning.
W: It is good that she is enjoying the job.
M: The boss is pleased that she arrives on time and works hard every day. He says there may even be a better job for her.
W: Is it like her last job, where she wrote letters all day
M: No, in this one she makes reports for her bosses. If she is given a better job, that will involve interviewing people, so it will be quite important.
W: Oh, that’s great. Everyone deserves to feel appreciated in the work they do.
Text 10
M: Now listen carefully everyone—here are our plans for tomorrow. Breakfast will be at 8:00. Don’t be late because we’re going to the London Eye at 9:30 and it will take us 40 minutes to get there. A ride on the London Eye takes 30 minutes, and if the weather’s good, we’ll get a great view of the city.
Next, we’re walking to Covent Garden. At 12:30, we’ll have lunch, and then you can do some shopping. Lunch will cost about ￡10, and you’ll need some pocket money as well. ￡20 will be enough I think.
At 3 o’clock we’re going to the Science Museum to see a film in the 3D cinema. It’s called Deep Sea. You won’t believe your eyes when you see some of the fish in that film!
After that, at about 6:00, we’re going back to the hotel to have dinner. There will also be time for you to have a rest and change your clothes.
Finally, at 7:30 we are going to see Grease at the Piccadilly Theatre. It’s a great show, and I’m sure you will really enjoy it.

第一节
A
【文章大意】 本文是一篇应用文。文章推荐了四个网络频道。
21.B　细节理解题。根据Yes Theory 部分中的“There is no doubt that many of us may feel too scared to pursue ambitious goals, which is why Yes Theory takes on some of the most daunting (令人望而却步的) adventures to show people that discomfort helps achieve a great life.”可知,该频道激励人们挑战自我。故选B。
22.D　细节理解题。根据Be Inspired 部分中的“Be Inspired is a YouTube channel that provides videos to help people improve their overall well-being.”可知,该频道有助于人们提升幸福感。故选D。
23.A　推理判断题。根据Yes Theory 部分中的“Driven by the motto ‘Seek Discomfort’, Yes Theory aims to spread a message of positivity and fearlessness through pursuing projects and missions that help bring people outside their comfort zones.”、Nas Daily部分中的“Being a graduate of Harvard, Nuseir Yassin, also known as Nas Daily, makes an effort to provide a YouTube channel that highlights the ‘most incredible humans on planet Earth’.”、TED-Ed 部分中的“TED-Ed is one of the most famous YouTube channels when it comes to learning and inspiration.”和Be Inspired部分中的“The channel also includes short and inspirational videos that help people realize the mistakes they are making and ways to solve them.”可推知,四个频道都是鼓舞人心的。故选A。
B
【文章大意】 这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了随着人工智能(AI)和机器人技术以惊人的速度发展,一些人担心艺术和创意人才有被取代的风险。然而,韩国工业技术研究所的一项新研究恰恰说明了为什么这不能也不应该发生。
24.B　段落大意题。根据文章第二段“Over a year ago, work to develop an automaton began. At first, it was designed like a machine, and didn’t live up to expectations. Then the company sought ways to improve it. In the end, it was given two arms with joints to copy wrists and elbows, allowing it to move a stick similarly to how a human conductor would move it. It was named the EveR 6 robot, and stands at 1.8 metres.”(一年多以前,开发机器人的工作开始了。起初,它被设计得像一台机器,并没有达到人们的期望。然后,该公司寻求改进方法。最后,它被给予了两个带有关节的手臂来模仿手腕和肘部,使它能够像人类指挥一样移动一根指挥棒。它被命名为EveR 6机器人,身高1.8米。)可知,第二段主要讲述了EveR 6机器人的研发过程。故选B。
25.B　推理判断题。根据文章第四段“The 12-minute piece they planned to perform, Feel by Il-hoon Son, was created specifically for this event. It was created with the strengths of both EveR 6 and the human conductor, Soo-yeol Choi, in mind.”(他们计划演奏的12分钟的曲目是孙一勋的Feel,这是专门为此次活动创作的。这首歌是在考虑到EveR 6和人类指挥家崔秀烈的长处后创作的。)可推知,Feel是一个展示人机合作的作品。故选B。
26.C　细节理解题。根据文章第五段“Meanwhile, it was up to the human conductor to lead the orchestra in creating an improvisational (即兴的) score, adding depth to the otherwise planned piece.”(与此同时,由人类指挥来带领乐队创作即兴乐谱,为原本计划好的作品增加深度。)可知,他在表演中指挥演出的即兴部分。故选C。
27.C　推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“‘Let’s leave the accuracy to the robots,’ Soo-yeol Choi said, ‘but the musical and artistic aspects to a human conductor.’”(“让我们把精确度留给机器人吧,”崔秀烈说,“而把音乐和艺术方面的工作留给人类指挥。”)可推知,崔秀烈对这个机器人持支持的态度。故选C。
C
【文章大意】 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了两位年轻的科学家通过实验有了新的发现:将真菌与某种农场废弃物混合在一起可以在一定程度上解决塑料微粒因污染土壤而影响植物生长的问题。
28.D　推理判断题。根据第一段的“May Shin, 20, and Jiwon Choi, 18, presented their discovery at the 2023 Regeneron International Science and Engineering Fair(ISEF).” [20岁的May Shin和18岁的Jiwon Choi在2023年再生元国际科学与工程博览会(ISEF)上展示了他们的发现。]和第二段的“The young scientists shared their interests, May says, to test how long-lived plastics might affect farm crops—and how to limit any harm.”(May说,他们两人有共同的兴趣,那就是测试长期存在的塑料可能如何对农作物产生影响,以及如何限制其危害。)可以推知,他们兴趣相同,融洽地在一起工作,并有了发现,故选D。
29.C　推理判断题。根据第三段内容“May and Jiwon planted more than 2,000 scallion (大葱) seeds in pots of soil. Half the seeds got soil polluted with microplastics. The rest grew in plastic-free soil…the pair tracked how many scallions sprouted (萌芽) in each group and measured the plants’ height once each week.”可知,本段详述实验过程是为了展示实验的可信度。故选C。
30.C　细节理解题。根据第四段中“About twice as many scallions sprouted in clean soil compared to that containing plastic bits.”(在干净的土壤中,大葱发芽的数量是在包含塑料碎片的土壤中发芽的大约两倍。)和“It was slower, however, than scallions planted in clean soil. They grew 7.2 centimetres (2.8 inches) per week.”[然而,它比在干净的土壤中种植的葱生长得慢。它们每周长7.2厘米(2.8英寸)。]可知,大葱在干净的土壤中比在污染的土壤中发芽情况好。故选C。
31.A　推理判断题。根据最后一段的“In the future, the two young scientists hope to continue testing microscopic fungi and farm wastes under other conditions.” 可推断,这两位年轻的科学家意志坚定,坚持找到解决办法,故选A。
D
【文章大意】 这是一篇说明文。文章说明了仓促的判断往往会导致行为和思维上的错误。
32.D　细节理解题。根据第一段中“When picking a doctor, for instance, many individuals simply use recommendations from friends and family rather than consulting medical professionals or sources such as healthcare websites or articles on good physicians.”(例如,在选择医生时,许多人只采用朋友和家人的建议,而不是咨询医疗专业人员或医疗网站或好医生的文章这些资源。)可知,许多人是通过向朋友和家人寻求建议来选择医生的。故选D项。
33.B　推理判断题。根据第三段中“Consider this brain teaser:‘A baseball bat and ball cost $1.10 together. The bat costs $1 more than the ball. How much does the ball cost ’ Many people jumped to the conclusion of 10 cents, but a little thought reveals the right answer to be five cents.”(想想这个脑筋急转弯:“一个棒球棒和球加起来花费1.10美元。球棒比球贵1美元。这个球多少钱 ”许多人直接得出10美分的结论,但稍加思考就会发现正确答案是5美分。)可知,作者采用举例子的方法说明仓促决策会导致错误的发生。故选B项。
34.A　推理判断题。根据第四段中“Psychological researchers commonly distinguish between two pathways of thought…and controlled, or system 2, comprising intentional and effortful reasoning that is analytical and mindful.”(心理学研究人员通常将思维分为两种途径……另一种是受控制的,或称为系统2,包括有意和努力的推理,这是分析性和注意性的。)可知,系统2是受控加工,包括有意识的、需要主观努力的推理活动;结合本段中“The jumpers, however, do not adopt controlled reasoning to the same degree as nonjumpers.”可知,仓促做决定的人的受控加工(系统2)的调动程度更低。故选A项。
35.D　词义猜测题。画线词所在句前文“To put it another way, jumpers were more likely to accept the conclusions they made at first glance without thorough examination or questioning. A lack of system 2 thinking was also more broadly connected to their problematic belief and faulty reasoning.”(换言之,仓促做决定的人更有可能在没有全面检查或质疑的情况下接受他们第一眼得出的结论。缺乏系统2思维也与他们有问题的信念和错误的推理有更广泛的联系。)说明仓促做决定的人需要仔细彻底地检查和质疑问题,由此可推知画线词的意思是“仔细地,彻底地”。故选D项。
第二节
【文章大意】 这是一篇说明文。文章指出了“找到你的激情”这个观点的错误之处,认为激情是开发出来的,要秉持兴趣成长型心态,这会帮助你保持开放和好奇,有助于开发激情。
36.B　根据上文“‘Finding’ a passion implies that it already exists and is simply waiting to be discovered. Unfortunately, this idea is not what science tells us.”可知,科学表明“激情”并非早已存在,等待被发现;由此可知,激情是需要开发的。B项(相反,激情和兴趣一样,是可开发的。)符合文意。故选B。
37.C　根据上文“They argue that encouraging people to ‘find’ their passion may cause them to eventually believe that interests and passions are inborn and relatively unchangeable.”可推知,相信激情和兴趣是可以找到的人,有可能认为激情和兴趣是不可改变的,即他们有一种固定的兴趣心态。C项(这么想的人有一种固定的兴趣心态。)符合文意。故选C。
38.E　根据上文“If people believe they are limited to only a few inborn interests and, in consequence, do not explore other areas, they may miss seeing important connections across domains.”可知,如果人们认为他们只局限于一些天生的兴趣,他们可能会错过跨领域的重要联系;空处位于段末,应对上文进行总结。E项 (像这样,将兴趣视为固定的限制了他们的创造潜力。)符合文意,creative potential呼应上文explore other areas。故选E。
39.G　根据下文“For example, change ‘I’m not interested in this.’ to ‘I’m not interested in this yet, but I know that interest can be developed with time and engagement.’”可知,当我们对新任务不感兴趣时,要用积极的想法代替消极的想法。G项(用鼓励成长和学习的积极想法取代自我批评的想法。)符合文意,下文是对选项的举例说明。故选G。
40.D　根据下文“But a growth mindset of interest will help you remain open and curious. The science tells us we should work towards loving what we do. We might become more creative and resilient as a result.”中的but可知,空处内容与下文为转折关系。D项(当然,并不是每一项活动都会成为一种炽热的激情。)符合语境,虽然并非每项活动都会成为激情,但保持兴趣成长型心态有助于让人们保持开放和好奇。故选D。
第三部分

【思路点拨】 本文以人物为线索展开。伊莱是一名对环境保护充满热情的高中生,他渴望参加一年一度的科学博览会,这是一项学生向观众展示他们的科学项目并做出重大贡献的活动。然而,他一直在自我怀疑中挣扎,在导师济慈先生和朋友乔伊和玛丽琳的帮助下,伊莱获得了信心。然而,就在伊莱以为一切都很顺利的时候,他遇到了挫折。最后在导师和朋友的帮助下,伊莱恢复了信心,克服了前进道路上的障碍。
【详解】
1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“在济慈先生的指导下,伊莱不知疲倦地制订了一个新的项目计划。”可知,第一段可描写伊莱在济慈先生的指导下,成功解决问题,顺利完成项目。
②由第二段首句内容“科学博览会的日子终于到了,伊莱已经准备好了。”可知,第二段可描写他的项目获得了科学博览会的冠军,他感谢济慈先生、乔伊和玛丽琳对他坚定的支持和信任以及他的经历带来的感悟。
2.续写线索:济慈先生的指导和伊莱的努力—顺利完成项目—获奖—感激—感悟
One possible version:
Under Mr Keats’ guidance, Eli worked tirelessly to develop a new project plan. He was committed to creating a plan that would not only solve the initial challenges but also stand out from the competition (定语从句). Mr Keats advised Eli to break the problem down into small parts to figure out the solution quickly (不定式作目的状语). Together, they discussed potential solutions and refined their ideas until they were sure they had found the perfect approach (until引导时间状语从句). Eli knew that this project was his best shot at winning the competition, and he was ready to present it to the judges with confidence.
The day of the Science Fair finally arrived, and Eli was ready. His project, an interactive display that educated visitors about the importance of conservation and featured interactive games (定语从句), was a hit with everyone who visited (定语从句). To Eli’s disbelief and delight, his project was declared the winner of the Science Fair. He owed a debt of gratitude to Mr Keats, Joey and Marylin for their support and belief in him. Eli’s experience showed that anyone can overcome self-doubt, achieve their goals, and make a meaningful difference in the world(宾语从句).单元素养测评卷(四)

With artificial intelligence (AI) and robotic technology improving at impressive rates, there are some who worry that there’s a risk of artistic and creative people being replaced. A new study by the Korean Institute of Industrial Technology, however, is showing exactly why that can’t and shouldn’t happen. It all started when the South Korean company posed this question: Can robots replace conductors
Over a year ago, work to develop an automaton began. At first, it was designed like a machine, and didn’t live up to expectations. Then the company sought ways to improve it. In the end, it was given two arms with joints to copy wrists and elbows, allowing it to move a stick similarly to how a human conductor would move it. It was named the EveR 6 robot, and stands at 1.8 metres. It was finally time to figure out how it could follow through on its musical role.
“We got involved in this project to see how far robots can go in more creative fields like the arts, and what the challenges are,” Dong-wook Lee, a senior researcher at the Korean Institute of Industrial Technology said.
In order to pull this off, Dong-wook Lee cooperated with the Busan Philharmonic Orchestra. The 12-minute piece they planned to perform, Feel by Il-hoon Son, was created specifically for this event. It was created with the strengths of both EveR 6 and the human conductor, Soo-yeol Choi, in mind.
To pull off this impressive performance, the robot was preprogrammed to conduct through 30 cycles of beat patterns. Meanwhile, it was up to the human conductor to lead the orchestra in creating an improvisational (即兴的) score, adding depth to the otherwise planned piece.
Together, they pulled off a masterful performance that the audience seemed more than happy to have had the opportunity to witness it first-hand!
With the concert having gone so well, this is only the start of EveR 6. Still, no matter the improvements they’re able to make to this Android robot, the human conductor isn’t concerned about being replaced.
“Let’s leave the accuracy to the robots,” Soo-yeol Choi said, “but the musical and artistic aspects to a human conductor.”
(　)24.What is Paragraph 2 mainly about
A.The function of the EveR 6 robot.
B.The development of the EveR 6 robot.
C.The EveR 6 robot’s role as a conductor.
D.The difficulty in designing the EveR 6 robot.

C.It is the only piece that EveR 6 will perform.
D.It is a piece requiring great ability to conduct.
(　)26.What role did Soo-yeol Choi play in the performance
A.He corrected the robot’s mistakes.
B.He programmed the EveR 6 robot.
C.He led the improvisational section of the performance.
D.He was the main conductor of the Busan Philharmonic Orchestra.

A.Unclear. B.Uncaring.
C.Supportive. D.Doubtful.
C [2024·江西宜春高二月考]
Scientists find when tiny plastics end up in farm fields, the pollution can impair plant growth. But two young researchers now report that combining fungi (真菌) with certain farm wastes can partially overcome that problem. May Shin, 20, and Jiwon Choi, 18, presented their discovery at the 2023 Regeneron International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF).
The pair met in a research design class at the Fryeburg Academy, a high school in Maine. May had wanted to explore how microplastics might affect the ecosystem. Jiwon was fascinated by plants and fungi. The young scientists shared their interests, May says, to test how long-lived plastics might affect farm crops—and how to limit any harm.
May and Jiwon planted more than 2,000 scallion (大葱) seeds in pots of soil. Half the seeds got soil polluted with microplastics. The rest grew in plastic-free soil. The plants assigned to each soil were further divided into four groups. The young scientists added certain microscopic fungi to the soil in one group. Another group had a top layer of farm wastes. A third group got both treatments. The last group got none. For three weeks, the pair tracked how many scallions sprouted (萌芽) in each group and measured the plants’ height once each week.
About twice as many scallions sprouted in clean soil compared to that containing plastic bits. But among plants surviving in the polluted soil, a combination of microscopic fungi and farm wastes helped them out. Those getting both treatments grew 5.4 centimetres (about 2 inches) per week. That was faster than either of the treatments alone or those getting none. It was slower, however, than scallions planted in clean soil. They grew 7.2 centimetres (2.8 inches) per week.
In the future, the two young scientists hope to continue testing microscopic fungi and farm wastes under other conditions. Their goal is to see how other factors might change the plants’ response to the soil treatments.
(　)28.What can we learn about May and Jiwon from the first two paragraphs
A.They met in a college.
B.They grow fungi at home.
C.They like to collect farm wastes.
D.They worked together harmoniously.
(　)29.Why did the writer give a detailed description of the test in Paragraph 3
A.To examine the different plants.
B.To build a scientific model.
C.To show the reliability of the test.
D.To arouse the readers’ interest.
(　)30.What can be found from the result of the test
A.Farm wastes help scallions sprout most in polluted soil.
B.Microscopic fungi help scallions sprout most in polluted soil.
C.Scallions sprout better in clean soil than in polluted soil.
D.Plants grow better in polluted soil with wastes than in clean soil.

How much time do you spend doing the research before you make a big decision The answer for many of us, it turns out, is hardly any. When picking a doctor, for instance, many individuals simply use recommendations from friends and family rather than consulting medical professionals or sources such as healthcare websites or articles on good physicians.
While there are people who go over every detail before making a choice, a fair number of individuals are quick to jump to conclusions. Psychologists call this way of thinking a cognitive bias (认知偏差), a tendency towards a specific mental mistake.
It has been found that hasty (仓促的) judgements often lead to errors in behaviour and thinking. Jumpers made more errors than nonjumpers on problems that require thoughtful analysis. Consider this brain teaser: “A baseball bat and ball cost $1.10 together. The bat costs $1 more than the ball. How much does the ball cost ” Many people jumped to the conclusion of 10 cents, but a little thought reveals the right answer to be five cents.
So what is behind jumping Psychological researchers commonly distinguish between two pathways of thought: automatic, known as system 1, which reflects ideas that come to the mind easily and without effort; and controlled, or system 2, comprising intentional and effortful reasoning that is analytical and mindful. Jumpers and nonjumpers are equally influenced by automatic thoughts. The jumpers, however, do not adopt controlled reasoning to the same degree as nonjumpers.
It is system 2 thinking that helps people counterbalance (抵消) mental bias introduced by the more knee-jerk (本能地做出的) system 1. To put it another way, jumpers were more likely to accept the conclusions they made at first glance without thorough examination or questioning. A lack of system 2 thinking was also more broadly connected to their problematic belief and faulty reasoning. Happily, there may be some hope for jumpers: it is suggested that using training to target their bias can help people think more meticulously.
(　)32.How do many people choose their doctors according to Paragraph 1
A.They surf healthcare websites.
B.They read articles by good doctors.
C.They talk with medical professionals.
D.They ask their friends and family for advice.
(　)33.How is Paragraph 3 mainly developed
A.By making a prediction.
B.By giving an example.
C.By introducing a concept.
D.By referring to another study.
(　)34.What problem do jumpers have when making a conclusion according to the text
A.They are less engaged in system 2.
B.They are unable to think analytically.
C.They think less about maths problems.
D.They ignore the errors made in system 1.
(　)35.What does the underlined word “meticulously” in the last paragraph mean
A.Effortlessly. B.Specifically.
C.Independently. D.Thoroughly.

“Find your passion!” When discussing future career options or selecting a major in college, your parents often say this. The very expression is meant to inspire. But is it good advice
“Finding” a passion implies that it already exists and is simply waiting to be discovered. Unfortunately, this idea is not what science tells us. 36.　　　
To study this, researchers use a framework of “fixed” and “growth” mindsets.They argue that encouraging people to “find” their passion may cause them to eventually believe that interests and passions are inborn and relatively unchangeable. 37.　　　　 In contrast, people who view interests and passions as developed have a growth mindset of interest.
Researchers have revealed that a fixed mindset of interest can decrease creativity. If people believe they are limited to only a few inborn interests and, in consequence, do not explore other areas, they may miss seeing important connections across domains. 38.　　　
Evidently, people can do a lot to embrace a growth mindset of interest. First, realize that your interests and passions aren’t pre-existing. Take an active role in developing your passions. Second, practise positive self-talk. When you lack interest in a new task, pay attention to your inner dialogue. 39.　　　　 For example, change “I’m not interested in this.” to “I’m not interested in this yet, but I know that interest can be developed with time and engagement.”
40.　　　　 But a growth mindset of interest will help you remain open and curious. The science tells us we should work towards loving what we do. We might become more creative and resilient as a result.
A.So can a growth mindset of interest be taught
B.Instead, passions, like interests, are developed.
C.People who think this way have a fixed mindset of interest.
D.Of course, not every activity will become a burning passion.
E.As such,seeing interests as fixed limits their creative potential.
F.Don’t expect that pursuing new interests will always be easy or exciting.
G.Replace self-critical thoughts with positive ones that encourage growth and learning.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Eli, a high school student passionate about environmental conservation, was eager to participate in the annual Science Fair, an event where students showcase their science projects to the audience, and make a significant contribution. However, he struggled with self-doubt, uncertain if he could create a project that would truly stand out.
Fortunately, Eli’s advisor, Mr Keats, a man in his 40s known for his enthusiasm and willingness to assist, recognized his hesitation and offered guidance and support. He saw potential in Eli and encouraged him to pursue his passion for environmental conservation. With Mr Keats’ help, Eli gradually gained confidence in his abilities.
Eli’s friends, Joey and Marylin, also played a crucial role in his journey to success. Both grew up in the neighbouring area, attended the same school, and shared Eli’s dedication to environmental conservation. Together, they brainstormed ideas and provided emotional support, keeping Eli motivated and focused on his project.
As the Science Fair drew nearer, Eli invested all his energy in creating a project that would raise awareness of environmental conservation. With Mr Keats’ guidance and his friends’ support, Eli overcame his lack of confidence and came up with a fantastic idea of a remarkable project.
However, just when Eli thought everything was going smoothly, he encountered a setback. His initial project idea faced unexpected challenges, and worse still, Eli didn’t have a Plan B. Doubts and frustration resurfaced, posing a threat to his progress. Joey and Marylin noticed Eli was in low spirits and asked him what had happened. Frustratedly, Eli told them about the project, adding that maybe he would never make it. Immediately, they understood that Eli needed more than just words of encouragement; he needed support. Without hesitation, they offered their shoulders to lean on.
During this difficult time, Mr Keats also offered his support and encouraged Eli to view the setback as an opportunity for growth and innovation. This encouragement fueled Eli’s determination. With their help, Eli regained his confidence and determination to overcome the obstacles in his path.
注意:续写词数应为150个左右。
Paragraph 1:
Under Mr Keats’ guidance, Eli worked tirelessly to develop a new project plan.

Paragraph 2:
The day of the Science Fair finally arrived, and Eli was ready.
