[2022·潍坊市高三模拟]Kenny Eating House is always crowded in the late afternoons right up to midnight. You will see many people standing around the tables. __1__ Once there is the slightest indication that the customers are leaving their table, you will see a few people diving for it. The victor will stand at the table proudly waving his relatives or friends over, while the losers will be down in the mouth.
__2__ You next have to get the attention of the busy waiters rushing about to attend to the customers. You will usually hear the words “hot water” being shouted out as they pass, even if they are not holding any such thing! __3__ In between trying to catch the attention of the waiters and looking through the menu, you will hear customers complaining about the slow service.
Once the waiter comes to take your orders, he is impatient. Sometimes, these waiters would just walk away from indecisive customers and the latter would have to work hard at getting some attention again. Usually, the waiters shout the orders out to the cooks located deep in the kitchen. __4__
Whenever the crowd gets too thick, the waiters will ask customers to share their tables with those standing. When the tables are shared by two different groups of people, the loudness becomes incredibly deafening. With plates clanking and people talking loudly, you need to shout to be heard. __5__ The hardworking waiters can finally sit down for a chat or have their cigarettes. The activity at the eating place winds down, ready to recover before the next day of madness arrives.

[2022·武汉市高三模拟]Lake Baikal, the biggest body of fresh water on Earth near Russia's border with Mongolia, is home to several unusual animals, including the world's only species of freshwater seal (海豹).
Seals exist in large quantities in Baikal, about 100，000 of them, though the lake is poor in nutrition. __1__. A study just published by Watanabe Yuuki of the National Institute of Polar Research in Tokyo suggests the answer is tiny organisms.
Most seals eat fish. And Baikal seals do, indeed, have needle pointed teeth. But in 1982 researchers noted that they developed a second sort of specialized tooth behind those canines (犬齿). They have sharp teeth which look like combs (梳子). __2__. But Dr Watanabe guessed that they might be an adaptation for feeding on other strange creatures in the lake.
Seals arrived in Baikal 2 million years ago, from the Arctic Ocean. So too did some much smaller sea creatures, known as amphipods. These have grown into more than 340 species.
__3__. But Dr Watanabe wondered if the Baikal seals' comb like teeth might enable them to filter (过滤) these tiny creatures from the water in sufficient quantities to make them useful food sources. __4__.
Records showed that the seals would dive in with their mouths open and collect amphipod groups that form at night. Dr Watanabe estimated that each seal catches an average of 57 amphipods per dive. __5__， for the seals do hunt fish as well. But they also compete with those fish for the amphipods, thus partially bypassing a link in the food chain and perhaps maintaining themselves in larger numbers than what would otherwise be possible.
A．The needlelike canines are necessary
B．So how they do so well has been a puzzle
C．This has led to their numbers increasing sharply
D．At the time, nobody knew what to make of them
E．He therefore used waterproof cameras to observe a few seals
F．Cameras remained attached to some seals for between two and four days
G．Sea mammals of the size of seals would normally see amphipods as too small to hunt
[2022·济南市高三模拟]“A ship in the harbor is safe, but that is not what ships are built for，” said John Augustus Shedd, an early 20th century author. Throughout COVID 19, we've all become used to assessing risk in new ways. We've come to understand, though we can never get rid of risk altogether，we have great power to make choices both large and small to protect ourselves. __1__ It stops us from stepping outside of our comfort zones and trying new things.
Developmental psychologists talk about “positive risks”—socially acceptable risks that our lives can benefit from. __2__ But what about those who develop into adults Researchers have found that happiness for older adults is being able to choose how they spend their time, including ways that are adventurous, new and even mildly risky，like hiking or other outdoor activities.
One guide to positive risk management lists ways that people can make sure their risks are on the “safe” side of the risk range. For example, to ensure a successful bike ride, you should in advance equip yourself with a fully charged cell phone and a full water bottle. __3__ Or if you are concerned about your physical capacity, consult a certified trainer or a medical professional before departure.
__4__ This means adapting to changing situations. In response to the deadly virus，people choose to step back into normal life only after they are vaccinated. In this way, people could be confident that the risk is tolerable.
Nobody wants to be needlessly risky. But using our newly acquired risk assessment tools, we can once again learn and grow in our lives. __5__
A．Take risks in a positive way.
B．But the self protective mind state carries its own risk.
C．Overall happiness is one benefit of positive risk taking.
D．Remember to tell one of your friends or families your destination.
E．Besides taking preventive steps, flexible thinking is also encouraged.
F．Like a ship sailing away from its harbor, that is what we were built to do.
G．For teenagers, this means risks like running for a monitor or trying out for a team.
[2022·武汉市高三调研]Now I live in Paris. Actually, I don't mind the food or the people, but I do care about the land that extraordinarily lacks characteristics of hiking. I enjoy being outdoors and hiking，but Paris's natural resources don't hold much potential for my bent. So when my dad asked if I wanted to go hiking with him, I was overjoyed. __1__. It turned out that I was too optimistic.
We started our main hike up Flattop Mountain. As we hiked it was much more challenging than I had expected. __2__. The path is winding and we saw mountains towering over the green valleys and cliffs that seemed endless. What amazed me most was that thick clouds enveloped the mountainsides. __3__.
I stared up at the top to see how much farther we had to go and I began to worry that I wouldn't finish it. __4__. It made me doubtful about my persistence (坚持). But when we looked back at the path that faded in the distance, I was filled with fulfillment with seeing how much we had done.
As I was hiking, I started to reflect on how hiking was similar to other aspects of my life. __5__. It reminded me of my struggles in my classes and the difficulties I had to overcome. I spotted that the process of learning isn't always the most fun, but the fulfillment after seeing how much I had finished just increases the thirst for knowledge, causing me to long for more learning. Looking down at the mountain I was content but never fully satisfied. Having considered a lot, I was determined to pursue the summit (山顶).
A．Hiking could make me fly
B．Hiking gave time for my mind to wander
C．I thought I would finish the journey with ease
D．But I was shocked at the beauty surrounding me

[2022·贵阳市高三适应性考试]Biologist Marc Bekoff studies dogs, wolves and coyotes (土狼). __1__. If they're in the same pack，animal friends may sleep close to one another. They greet one another, travel together, share food and groom (梳毛) each other. Animal friends are nice to one another，and they even play together. __2__.
Playing together, for instance, helps animals bond and keeps them close to the group. “Coyote pups who don't play together are more likely to go out on their own. __3__.” says Bekoff. “If an animal has a special friend，both friends benefit by having someone to watch out for them.”
__4__. When a young rhinoceros sets out on its own for the first time，it may look for an older travel friend，and this companion helps to find food and water and avoid predators. Young male elephants hang out together when they leave their mothers' herds，and young dolphins do，too. Pairs of bottlenose dolphins sometimes form strong bonds and pal around together for years. Among chimpanzee groups，some pair up to groom each other，hunt together, share food and defend each other from danger.
Why do animals have friends “Mainly because in the long run they benefit from friendships，” scientist Franz de Waal says. “It is all give and take. __5__.”
A.Young animals often team up for protection
B．He believes that many animals do have friends
C．He thinks that many animals seldom have friends
D．Therefore，playing together sometimes is harmful
E．And leaving the protection of the group can be dangerous
F．This friendly behavior can be important to an animal's survival
G．Sometimes one gives more, and the other takes more，but in the end both parties gain
[2022·福州市高三质检]We all have things that we want to achieve in our lives—getting into the better shape, building a successful business, raising a wonderful family, and so on. __1__ At least, this is how I approached my life goals until recently.
What I'm starting to realize, however, is that when it comes to actually getting things done and making progress in the areas that are important to you, there is a much better way to do things. It all comes down to the difference between goals and systems. __2__ Your system is the writing schedule that you follow each week. Now for the really interesting question: If you completely ignored your goals and focused only on your system, would you still get results I think you would.
__3__ In the last 12 months, I've written over 115，000 words. The typical book is about 50，000 to 60，000 words, so I have written enough to fill two books this year. All of this is such a surprise because I never set a goal for my writing. I didn't measure my progress in relation to some benchmark. __4__ I never said, “I want to write two books this year.” What I did focus on was writing one article every Monday and Thursday. I focused on my system and the process of doing the work. And after sticking to that schedule for 11 months, the result was 115, 000 words. In the end, I enjoyed the same (or perhaps better) results.
Goals are good for planning your progress and systems are good for actually making progress. Goals can provide direction and even push you forward in the short term, but eventually a well designed system will always win. Having a system is what matters. __5__
A．None of this is to say that goals are useless.
B．If you're a writer, your goal is to write a book.
C．Forget about predicting the future and build a system.
D．I never set a word count goal for any particular article.
E．Committing to the process is what makes the difference.
F．And for most of us, the path to those things starts by setting a specific goal.
G．As an example, I just added up the total word count for the articles I've written this year.
The Danger of Overusing Exclamation Marks (感叹号)
I'm well known for my cheerfulness. Even on my worst days, I still put on a happy face to communicate with people. __1__.
I used to catch myself using exclamation marks at the end of every sentence in emails to express friendliness. __2__. Just look at the last few messages you sent. If you're like me, you will probably see exclamation marks throughout your emails, “I'm excited to hear from you！” and “I'm happy to help out！” But really
The reality is that I'm not always excited to hear from someone I don't know. __3__， because I have my own work to do. But fearing others dislike me, my tone is always enthusiastic with exclamation marks, even when the situation doesn't need it.

2．答案与解析：C 空前一句讲到了“过去，我常常在邮件里的每个句子结尾加感叹号以示友好”，空后讲到了“那就去看看你发送的前几条信息。如果你也像我一样……”。因此，空处应该会讲到你也可能会有同样的情况，故C项符合语境。
3．答案与解析：A 根据空后的“因为我也有自己的事要做”可知，A项“我不总是很开心去帮助（别人）”符合语境。
4．答案与解析：D 空后一句“更糟糕的是，这是没有必要的”与前一句形成了递进。因此，空处讲到的应该还是“manage others' feelings”，给作者带来的负面影响，故D项符合语境。
5．答案与解析：G 空前一句讲到了“我已经决定更恰当地使用感叹号”。因此，空处讲到的应该是现在在什么时候使用感叹号，故G项符合语境。
