21、Modern life brings us many things to worry about, and you may come across a friend or two reminding everyone to “just breathe.” But can just breathing really make a difference?

“The rate and depth we breathe at has a huge effect on our mental state,” says Elissa Epel, a professor from San Francisco. Researchers like Epel are exploring how breathing can help people reduce anxiety and they find that breathing could be an overlooked key to finding more calm and peace.

In a 2017 study, highly anxious people were asked to take a breath course and to practise twice a day at home. After eight weeks, they reported feeling less anxious compared to a group that didn’t receive the training. They also showed physical signs of reduced anxiety, including lower heart rate.

A regular breathing practice might help you feel calmer in your everyday life. But other studies suggest that focusing on your breathing in moments of acute stress could also be useful.

In an older study, researchers told participants that they were going to receive electric shocks, which actually never happened. Some of them practised breathing slowly before the shocks, while others focused on breathing at a normal rate or didn’t regulate their breathing at all. The slow breathers not only reported feeling less anxious while expecting the pain, but also showed lower anxiety on a physical level, as measured by sweat and blood flow to the fingers.

Another study following the study above tested three different breathing styles: fast inhaling (吸入) with slow exhaling; slow inhaling with fast exhaling; or evenly paced inhaling and exhaling. Here, the fast inhaling with slow exhaling (2 seconds in, 8 seconds out) was the most effective at relieving both the physical and mental anxiety.

All these studies show how much influence our body has on our mind. If the way we’ re breathing is signaling to our brains that something is wrong, it’s no wonder we feel anxious.

【1】What do researchers like Epel find?

A．Most people have mental problems.

B．People ignore the effect of anxiety.

C．Life gives people too much stress.

D．Proper breathing can bring people peace.

【2】What happened to the people who practised breathing for eight weeks?

A．Their bodies became stronger.

B．Their hearts beat faster.

C．They got less anxious in daily life.

D．They had a better sleep.

【3】What can we learn from the older study?

A．The normal breathers feel less anxious.

B．Sweat shows a good physical level.

C．Slow breathing can relieve real-time anxiety.

D．Blood flow can cause anxiety.

【4】What is paragraph 6 mainly about?

A．The similarities of three breathing methods.

B．The influences of breathing on anxiety.

C．The styles of changing breathing.

D．What the best breathing way is.

22、Last week, my younger brother visited me for five days, To ensure I could spend as much time with him as possible, I worked extra hard during the weekend before he arrived.

It amazed me how much I could accomplish when I had a strong motivation to be efficient During the week, I put in a couple of hours in the mornings to handle pressing issues and then spent the afternoons and evenings going out with him. Once again, I was surprised to realize just how much free time was available to me if I consciously chose to be more effective while working. This made me think of Parkinson's Law: Work expands to fill the time available for its completion.

I realized then that I'd given myself more time than necessary for work, and as a result, I ended up spending lot of toe procrastinating （拖延）and entertaining myself online.

How might things change for me, I wondered, it   I chose to commit to more social and recreational （休闲娱乐）activities, made them priorities(优先事项）and was motivated to finish work quicker?

I realize not everyone has flexibility in their work schedules, but 1 believe we could all create more time for ourselves if we were motivated to cut out the choices that don't match our strongest desires and intentions. Maybe It's zoning out in front of the TV or searching the web. If there's one thing that's consumed my time the most, it's researching how I actually want to spend it.

I believe what English musician John Lennon said is true: Time that you enjoyed wasting was not wasted. I don't think there's anything wrong with using technology if We've consciously chosen to do it.

However, we owe it to ourselves to get out in the world and explore different possibilities -to be playful curious, engaged and just to be.

Perhaps it would be easier to do that if we asked ourselves: How can I be more effective? Can I minimize what I am currently doing? How can I start using the time I've created in a way that will excite and inspire me?

【1】How did the author feel when she finished her work in advance?

B．Exhausted.

C．Stressed.

D．Surprised.

【2】What does the underlined word “this” in paragraph 2 refer to?

A．The change in her work efficiency.

B．Ways of dealing with pressing issues.

C．Her working motivation to be different

D．The time spent with her younger brother.

【3】What does the author advise us to do to make more time for ourselves?

A．Commit to more personal activities.

B．Get your priorities right with your work.

C．Create a tight work schedule for ourselves.

D．Ddn’t waste time on technology for any reason.

【4】What is the author's main purpose in writing this article?

A．To explain what Parkinson's Law is.

B．To reflect on better time management.

A．Creating More Time.

B．Living Life to the Fullest

23、   Campeche is a city with a tumultuous history. Originally this area was settled by the Mayans. The first Spanish colonizers arrived in 1517 and established Campeche as the main port in the region. Unsurprisingly, this made Campeche an attractive target for pirates who first arrived in the late 16 century. For the next 200 years, Campeche was frequently attacked. Nevertheless, it is a delightful city and filled with interesting things to do.

Explore the old city of Campeche

There are a lot of beautiful restored old towns in Mexico, but Campeche is one of the nicest, cleanest and most elegant. The Campeche neighborhood is lovely and colorful, with neat sidewalks and smoothly laid out roads!

Wander along the Campeche Malecon

One of the nicest things about Campeche is its waterfront setting. The best way to enjoy that? Wandering along the malecon, or the walkway along the waterfront, just before sunset. This is the time when it cools down and everyone comes out to see things and to be seen. You'll see couples posing for photographers, joggers, cyclists, elderly people having conversations and groups of teenagers giggling.

Stop for a Bite at Calle 59

Calle 59 is a pedestrian-only street filled with outdoor tables from the surrounding restaurants. You can cat here at night, but a lot of people come for drinks. This is the one place in Campeche that feels touristy—its tables are filled with giant beers that get shared among multiple peoples.

26、阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。

Yollie was slender as a tulip, pretty, and one of the smartest girls at Saint Theresa's. She was an honor student, and a winner in the school's monthly spelling bees. She lived with her mother, Mrs. Moreno.

Recently one thing bothered Yollie a lot. She needed a new dress for the twelfth-grade fall dance. But her mother couldn't afford one. "We don't have the money," said her mother, genuinely sad. The best Mrs. Moreno could do was buy Yollie a pair of black shoes with velvet bows and dyed color to her white summer dress black.

"We can dye your dress so it will look brand-new," her mother said brightly, shaking the bottle of dye as she ran hot water into a plastic container. She poured in the black liquid and stirred it. Then, slowly and carefully, she lowered the dress. Yollie couldn't stand to watch. She doubted whether it would work. But to her surprise, the dress came out shiny black. Mrs. Moreno beamed at her and said, "See, what did I tell you?" Yollie hugged her mother in relief. At least she had a new dress for the ball which was important to girls at her age.

Yollie bathed, dressed, and did her makeup carefully until her mother yelled, "All right already?"

Yollie bounced out of Mrs. Moreno's car in front of the school and ran into her best friend, Janice. They didn't say it, but each thought the other was the most beautiful and charming girl at the dance; the boys would fall over themselves asking them to dance. Everyone danced, sipped punch, and stood in knots of threes and fours, talking. The evening was warm but thick with clouds. Gusts of wind picked up the paper lanterns hanging in the trees and swung them, blurring the night with reds and yellows. The lanterns made the evening seem romantic, like a scene from a movie.
