21、How to Overcome Social Anxiety

Social anxiety is a common type of anxiety disorder. 【1】. So they want to be unattractive, hiding away from others in a social event. Here are a few tips that can help you to overcome it.

【2】

A lot of people with social anxiety feel ashamed of getting help from a professional, but regular visits with a therapist(治疗专家) will help in so many ways. There are many therapists who specialize in dealing with social anxiety, so try to get help to properly deal with the anxiety attacks.

List down the things that stress you out

List down all your situations that can cause anxiety according to its levels you feel. 【3】. Make it a habit to list down how you react to those situations as you progress. Then move your way up the list. Practise doing this regularly and you will find that you have made great improvements.

Create realistic and objective goals

Set a realistic and objective goal for every plan you make. Make sure that you are setting your goals correctly. 【4】. Always remind yourself of this goal every day and keep your eyes on it until you get the result you are aiming for.

【5】, because social anxiety is a battle in the mind. You just have to reprogram your thinking approaches.

A．Seek professional help

B．Try to hide yourself away from others

C．Start off by exposing yourself to the easiest ones

D．Above all, you'd better change the way you think

E．Many people are suffering social anxiety nowadays

F．Non-realistic targets may just bring you disappointment in the long run

22、Open Hearts to Life

We often close ourselves off when unlucky events happen in our lives. We try to reduce the hurt and pain by pretending it doesn’t exist. 【1】 We need to learn to open our hearts to the potentials of life. The items listed below are the ways you can open your heart more fully and completely.

Breathe into pain.

Whenever a painful situation arises in your life, try to embrace it instead of running away. 【2】 If we run away from sadness, it will get stronger and more real. By making use of our breath, we soften our experiences and allow more newness and greater experiences to blossom.

【3】

I know we’ve all felt decisions or actions that we had to take simply due to our “gut” impulses(冲动): when asked, we can’t explain the reasons behind doing so — just a deep knowing that it had to get done. To start this process, take few deep breaths and then ask, “Heart, what decision should I make here? What action feels the most right?” See what comes up, then take action and evaluate the outcome.

Spend time alone.

For most of our lives we’re surrounded by people: our friends, colleagues, family members, and strangers. How often do we really spend time alone? When you spend time in solitude, you’re free from the influences of other people, and can truly open yourself and explore whatever you’d like. See where your thoughts take you. 【4】

Get outside of yourself.

【5】 After you’ve explored the depths of yourself, you come away with a new understanding. Now, it’s time to share that — not through telling others, but through being with others. When you’re in a group of people, try to give them your full energy and attention so you can understand them just as you did yourself. Appreciate their uniqueness, as if they are an extension of you. Lose yourself in the beauty of others; see what they can teach you about yourself.

A. Embrace the uncomfortable.

B. Ask your heart what it wants.

C. In the end, though, we can’t hide from ourselves.

D. We should take a step back and re-evaluate our behavior.

E. When the sadness strikes, take a deep breath and lean into it.

F. The golden ticket here is to not let yourself become distracted; just see what it’s like to be alone.

G. This may seem a little contradictory to the last tip, but in reality, they actually work hand-in-hand.

23、We’ve been covering standing desks for a long time now because experts agree that sitting all day is killing us. We want to be productive while also keeping our bodies healthy. Over the years, there have been several solutions to this from fixed standing desks to adjustable ones, portable desks to ones that change into shelves.

However, the most high tech and elegant solution has to be this new smart desk called The Stir Kinetic Desk. The desk learns your daily behaviors and moves between a sitting and standing height regularly throughout the day to keep you moving without interrupting your work flow.

You can program specific sitting and standing intervals or let the desk set the schedule. If you tend to sit while returning emails in the morning, but always want to stand during that afternoon conference call, the desk will learn those regular habits and adjust the schedule to fit them. Of course, the desk can always be manually lowered or raised by using the touch screen on the lower left comer of the desk.

When switching positions, the desk gently dips and rises to let you know that a change is coming up. If you’re not ready to switch positions at that time, you can tap the touchscreen to stay sitting or standing for a while longer.

The built-in touchscreen also keeps track of your daily sitting and standing times and tells you how many calories you’ve burned. You can even set goals for how long or often you want to stand. The desk also works with fitness devices like the FitBit to track your movements.

All of that smart tech doesn’t come cheap though. The M1 desk, which is the everyday model, runs a steep $2,990, while the more executive model with added features, the F1, goes for$4,190.

While expensive, it’s worth thinking of how much time we spend at our desks. Much like a good mattress(床垫), a good desk that works with you is worth the investment. Hopefully in a few years these smart, integrated desks will be more common and less expensive.

【1】The Stir Kinetic Desk has been designed to_______.

A. help users with their work

B. keep users moving all the time

C. get users to exercise while working

D. remind users of their working schedule

【2】Which is the feature of the touchscreen of the desk?

A. It can tell users when to change positions.

B. It can track users’ changes of positions.

C. It can keep users in a fixed position.

D. It can detect users’ health condition.

【3】Which of the following can best describe the desk?

A. Productive but challenging.

B. Convenient but unaffordable.

C. Complex and impractical.

D. Multi-functional and intelligent.

【4】What does the author intend to tell us in the last paragraph?

A. To spend money on such a desk is rewarding.

B. We should get such a desk as soon as possible.

C. It won’t be long before the desk is widely used.

D. Desks play a very important role in our daily life.

24、It happens every spring. Flowers suddenly burst out everywhere on the same day, as if they were in tune with one another. But how exactly do plants “know” when to flower?

It is a question that has puzzled biologists for years. But according to Science Daily, a US research group may have finally answered it—the secret lies in a protein called FKFI which allows plants to sense the differences in day lengths so that they can tell the seasons are changing. Researchers spotted the FKFI protein when they were studying a plant called Arabidopsis. They found that the protein is a photoreceptor. This means it is sensitive to, and can be activated by sunlight.

Plants produce this protein every day in the late afternoon throughout the year. If there is no light at this time, for example, in winter when the sun goes down early, the protein won’t be activated. But when spring comes and the days get longer, the protein can be activated by day—light and the plants “know” it is time to flower. “The presence of light in the late afternoon is the signal for plants that the days are getting longer and that it is the optimal time for flowering,” explained Takato Imaizumi, assistant professor at the University of Washington and leader of the study.

This daylight—sensing system also keeps plants from flowering when conditions are poor for growing, such as during autumn or winter when the weather is cold and days are short.

Although researchers have only studied how the FKF1 protein works in the Arabidopsis, they believe it is similar in many other more complex plants, including crops like rice and wheat. This could be useful to the agricultural industry.

“If we can control the timing of flowering, we might be able to increase crop production by speeding or delaying this,” said Imaizumi. “Also, if we could control the timing of flowering in horticultural(园艺的) plants, they may be worth more commercially.”

New technology based on this research might also lead to higher production of biofuel plants. This would be helpful for providing energy.

A．Flowering is rarely a synchronized process.

B．The FKF1 protein can only be found in Arabidopsis.

C．The FKF1 protein mainly helps plants to tell day from night.

D．The FKF1 protein can be activated as long as there is sunlight.

【2】According to the passage, the fact that ______ is the best signal for plants to grow.

A．the days are getting longer

B．spring comes early than usual

C．people have experienced a warm winter

D．there is still sunlight in the late afternoon

【3】The findings of the study mentioned in the passage can be applied to ______.

A．producing more crops

B．increasing varieties of plants

C．providing energy for biofuel plants

D．delaying the changing of seasons

【4】Which of the following would be the most suitable title for the passage?

A．FKF1—an Unknown Protein.

B．FKF1—the Real Criminal.

C．Why plants know when to blossom.

D．How plants react to different seasons.

25、Country diary: a chainsaw massacre in the alder woods

On an overcast, drizzly afternoon at Durham Wildlife Trust’s low Barns nature _________ alder provided the brightest splash of color in the _________

A tree had been felled and sawn into _________. Chainsaw wounds on this species can look like a massacre, because soon after the timber is cut, it turns a lurid shade of red, almost like blood, in stark contrast to the battleship-grey bark, _________ those wounds, which briefly _________ raw meat, fade to orange and finally to chestnut brown.

When this reserve was established half a century ago, around old gravel pits (采沙场), some moisture-loving alders were planted to help _________ a bare, windswept site. Alder wood is one of the finest sources of charcoal, and the plantation trees are old enough now to be coppiced, to produce barbecue fuel.

There is also an important natural alder wood here, created by a cataclysm almost two and a half centuries ago, which led to the designation of the reserve as a site of special scientific interest.

The Great Flood of 1771 _________ Weardale, washing away bridges all the way to the coast. When the water subsided, the course of the River Wear had _________ half a mile south, and the old riverbed became what is now the reserve’s Long Alder Wood, the finest example of its kind in the region.

When it sometimes floods, this tangle of gnarled（苍劲嶙峋的） trees has a _________ of the Florida Everglades（佛罗里达大沼泽） about it, with mossy, fallen trunks sinking back into the ooze (淤泥). Year round, there are wonderful __________ to watch birds from an embankment level with the tree canopy. This afternoon an acrobatic flock of about 30 goldfinches（金翅雀）__________ and chattered through the twigs, feeding on tiny seeds that fall from the woody cones.

Sadly, since the mid-1990s, another__________ has befallen this locally __________ woodland: alder dieback disease has killed around half the mature trees. Coppicing is leading to some regeneration, though in this precious __________ dead timber is allowed to lay where it falls, reserved for the needs of a __________ community of fungi, invertebrates and woodpeckers, rather than back-garden burger-flippers on summer evenings.
