Passage 2
（2019·浙江·台州市黄岩中学一模）Snowblind--it’s a frightening word. Thankfully, it’s a condition that is totally preventable.
Snow blindness is a painful, temporary loss of vision due to overexposure to the sun's UV rays. Essentially, snow blindness is caused by a sunburned eye.
___6___Though it is commonly called snow blindness, the condition can (and often does) occur in the absence of snow.
The terms "snowblind" and "snow blindness" have become popular because snow is highly reflective of ultraviolet radiation. ___7___Also, skiing, mountain climbing and snowboarding usually take place at relatively high altitudes, where the sun's UV rays are bined, these factors can double your risk of getting sunburned eyes, compared with being outdoors at lower altitudes in the summertime.
___8___Television journalist Anderson Cooper experienced snow-free snow blindness first-hand a few years ago when he spent a couple hours on a boat in Portugal without sunglasses and ended up "blind for 36 hours," according to his report of the incident.
Not only can you become snowblind without snow-- it can happen without sunlight, too! ___9___For example, sun lamps can cause temporary "snow" blindness if proper eye protection is not used.
___10___To relieve pain or discomfort from snow blindness, stay indoors and wear sunglasses. Keep your eyes well-moistened with artificial tears. For additional relief, use over-the-counter pain relievers. Be sure to use only pain relievers you know you can take without worry of an allergic reaction.

B．It will likely affect those traveling in snowy conditions

Passage 3
（2018·安徽巢湖·一模）Any woman can be strong. I don t just mean strong in mental aspect. ___11___ You may think that strong women are born, not made. You may be thinking of Olympic weightlifters lifting dozens of kilos over their heads, or of bodybuilders posing.
___12___ It is a requirement for everyday life. Strength is what you need if you carry your luggage. You need to be strong to pick your child up off the floor. And, most of all-especially as you get older-you need strength simply to stand up without falling over.
As we age, we progressively lose muscle mass, which can make us weaker.___13___ We might have trouble going up and down steps, picking up something heavy, even standing up from a seat. But while ageing is unavoidable, building muscle through strength training is meaningful.
A programme that is becoming more and more commonly used is Starting Strength. The basic Starting Strength programme consists of four different lifts. Trainees learn these lifts step by step.___14___ Three times a week they perform three of the lifts. If they are successful in a period, they then add 2.25kg in the next period.

B．I mean simply being able to fight against gravity.
C．Being strong doesn’t mean having a stony heart, either.
D．However, this condition can be improved by working out.
E．Most people begin to learn the lifts using an empty bar weighing 20kg.
F．In daily life, the actions we take for granted become more and more difficult.
G．However you feel about your body, you can become the strongest version of yourself.

Girls were responsible for all the household work.___16___women didn't have the same rights as men. They often suffered from mistreatment and sometimes even physical violence.
___17___But she saw that organizations working to end gender discrimination usually paid attention only to the actions and attitudes of girls. "Nobody talked to young boys about equality," she said.___18___The organization, Equal Community Foundation (ECF), now reaches 40,000 people in 20 communities in Pune.
ECF matches small groups of boys, ages 14 to 17, with male mentors for a 15-week period. The mentors talk to the boys about treating girls with respect.___19___They discuss times when the boys experienced unfair treatment. Then they work with the boys to come up with ways the boys can help spread tolerance. Boys have completed projects like making maps of the safest routes for girls to walk at night.

They might be practicing an instrument for 3 minutes per day, flossing(用牙线清洁)just one tooth or a single push-up when you first get out of be. ___21___, so goals such as “eating healthy- or getting in shape” are more ideas than achievable deeds.
___22___. That's because you’ll carry them out without thinking about it. Examples of these daily habits might be washing your hands before eating a meal. Once someone forms a new habit, soon it turns into a full-blown custom.
Forbes India offers a couple of simple tricks for going all the way with your resolution. ___23___ It could help you track your progress.That's because it will keep you paying attention to whether or not you're going on with your efforts.

Passage 6

If I were a boy again, I would school myself into a habit of attention. I would let nothing come between me and the subject in hand. _____27_____ The habit of attention becomes part of our life, if we begin early enough. I often hear grown-up people say, “I could not fix my attention on the lecture or book, although I wished to do so,” and the reason is, the habit was not formed in youth.

Dangers will arise in any career, but presence of mind will often conquer the worst of them.___29___
If I were a boy again, I would look on the cheerful side. Life is very much like a mirror: if you smile upon it, it smiles back upon you; but if you frown and look doubtful on it, you will get a similar look in return. Inner sunshine warms not only the heart of the owner, but of all that come in contact with it.
___30___I might write pages on the importance of learning very early in life to gain that point where a young boy can stand straight and decline doing an unworthy act because it is unworthy.
Finally, instead of trying hard to be happy, as if that were the sole purpose of life, I would, if I were a boy again, try still harder to make others happy.A．If we want light, we must conquer darkness.

___8___Television journalist Anderson Cooper experienced snow-free snow blindness first-hand a few years ago when he spent a couple hours on a boat in Portugal without sunglasses and ended up "blind for 36 hours," according to his report of the incident.

Trainees learn these lifts step by step.___14___ Three times a week they perform three of the lifts. If they are successful in a period, they then add 2.25kg in the next period.
