三、任务型阅读
(2021·河北邯郸育华中学模拟)Some bad habits are making you grow older fast. Cut down the following habits today for a more beautiful, healthier tomorrow.
◆Waiting for your sadness to go away
Sadness isn't just uncomfortable; it also makes you become older fast. Take your mental(精神的) health as seriously as your physical health. If you've been fighting with your sadness for more than two weeks, be sure to find professional help. Paying no attention to your sadness or just waiting without doing anything can do harm to your mental health and make you older.
◆Having a cigarette or two on weekends
If you smoke only when you are with your friends on weekends, can you keep away from the harmful effects of smoking The answer is “No”. Smoking can break down your skin's elasticity(弹性). Your smoking habit may even make your hair become gray. Changing your smoking habit is changing your life.
◆Having a long to do list day after day
It's normal to have a to do list in our “go, go, go” daily life. But if you're always running from one thing to the next, and caught in too much business, you are turning older fast, because your too long to do list makes you tired and under lots of stress. Stress can cause heart disease, high blood pressure and other physical diseases. It can also cause mental health problems or make the problems worse and worse.
1．If you can't get out of your sadness, what should you do
________________________________________________________________
2．What are the harmful effects of smoking

3．List two kinds of physical diseases that can be caused by stress.

四、信息归纳
(2021·山东菏泽巨野二模)Here are some simple tips for getting to sleep. They are designed to help you deal with nervousness, stress and worry, and enjoy a good night's sleep. Not every one of these tips alone will get you to sleep. But a few of them at least should be useful.
Get some physical exercise during the day. Even 15 minutes a day of exercise(at least half an hour before going to bed, so your body will have a chance to slow down) will give your body the activity and oxygen(二氧化碳) it needs to help you relax more and sleep better.
Listen to the light music. Play some soft, smooth music that helps you sleep. Of course you must have a recorder or CD player that will automatically(自动地) turn off because if you get up and turn it off in the end, you'll lose its effect(作用)．
Drink warm milk. A glass of warm milk 15 minutes before going to bed will keep you calm.
Keep regular bedtime hours. Your body likes regular routines(常规), whether you do or not. It likes to know that it's going to get up at the same time each day, eat at the same time, and go to bed at the same time. Keep far away from caffeine(咖啡因) and alcohol(酒精)．
Don't watch TV or read before going to bed. Wait at least half an hour before going to bed after reading or watching TV.

五、　　Last month, our class had a charity sale. Two days before the sale, we handed out notices to make our sale known by others. Then we made different things like food and toys. It was so much fun! When everything was ready, we started to sell the things. To our surprise, all the things were sold out in a short time! At last, we gave away the money we made to Children's Home.
I think it was a meaningful experience. Making things helps develop our life skills.
Meanwhile, we can learn how to communicate with others well. Last but not least, helping people makes us happy.
