As teenagers grow up, they become more independent and start making their own decisions. However, during this period, it can be easy for some of them to form bad habits. These bad habits, if left unchecked, could lead to more serious ones when they become adults. For example, some of them may become involved in tobacco or alcohol abuse, which can lead to physical and mental health problems. To prevent harmful habits like these from dominating a teenager’s life is essential. They must learn to recognise bad habits early and make appropriate changes.
Read Para.1 to answer the question.
1.Why should bad teenage habits be changed
They could lead to more serious habits.
2.How does a teenager prevent bad habits from ruling her or his life
By becoming aware of bad habits early and changing them properly.
How did the author explain his idea
By using an example
Careful--reading
To change bad habits is never easy, even with many attempts. There is a famous saying based on the philosophy of Aristotle: “We are what we repeatedly do.” In many ways, our lifestyle is the sum of choices we have made. We make a choice to do something, and then we repeat it over and over again. Soon that choice becomes automatic and forms a habit that is much harder to change. The good news is that we can change, if we understand how habits work.
2.Read Para.2 to choose the right answer.
How can a choice lead to a habit
make a choice
repeat it
automatically
form a habit
What does the word“automatic”in para.2 mean
natural B. strange C. unclear D. difficult
√
Why does the author quote Aristotle's words？
A. To show changing bad habits is never easy.
B. To imply we always repeat useless things.
C. To tell our life is only in the control of ourselves.
D. To warn us to get ready for the difficulties.
How did the author explain his idea
By using quote
3.Read Para.3 to finish the exercises.
According to modern psychology, we must first learn about the “habit cycle”, which works like this:
Firstly, there is a “cue”, an action, event, or situation that acts as a signal to do something.
Secondly, there is a “routine”, the regular action you take in response to the cue.
Thirdly, there is the “reward”, the good thing or feeling we get from the routine.
For example, when we feel unhappy (cue), we eat lots of unhealthy snacks (routine), which makes us feel happy (reward). The reward makes us much more likely to continue the cycle, and the bad habit of relying on unhealthy snacks is formed.

How did the author explain his idea
By giving definition
By using an example
By using chart
To facilitate a positive change in our bad habits, we must first examine our bad habit cycles and then try to adapt them. We can do this by combining the information from our habit cycles with our own positive ideas. For example, we could try to replace a negative routine with something more positive. So, when we feel unhappy again (cue), rather than eat snacks, we could listen to some of our favourite music instead (routine), which will make us feel relaxed (reward). Aside from changing bad habits, we can also use the habit cycle to create good habits. For example, when we come to an escalator (cue), our normal routine is to ride it, but we could change this routine into something more positive by taking the stairs instead.
Read Para.4 to choose answer the question.
What is the first step to change a bad habit
We must first examine our bad habit cycles and then try to adapt them.

Many of us try to change bad habits quickly, and if we are not successful straight away, we often become pessimistic and give up. In fact, the most successful way to change is not suddenly, but over a period of time. As the Chinese philosopher Lao Zi wrote, “A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.” One step seems small, but it is essential. To reach the goal of change, a person must show some discipline and repeatedly take many small steps. After all, it is not easy to break bad habits.
From the paragraph,what are needed if we want to change a bad habit
A.time B.discipline C.repeated small steps D.all of above
Read Para.5 to choose the right answer.

Further Thinking
1.Why did the writer write this text
2.Who's the intended reader How can you tell
Are bad habits easy to change Why or why not
What habits do you think are unhealthy
What can you do to correct these bad habits
Bad habits are hard to change because we are usually doing something we really like, but we are doing it too much.
Unhealthy habits include smoking, eating too much, playing too much on your computer or phone, and not doing enough exercise.
I think people can correct these bad habits by thinking about them more and deciding they will feel better and happier if they stop them.
1.How can a choice lead to a habit
2.What are the three stages of the habit cycle
A choice can lead to a habit if we make the same choice over and over again.
The three stages of the habit cycle are the cue, routine, and reward.
Post Reading
1.Read the text again and answer the questions.
What should we do to change a bad habit
How can a person use discipline to help change a bad habit
To change a bad habit, we should examine our habit cycles and then try to adapt them.
A person can use discipline to change a bad habit by taking many small steps to reach the goal of change.
The greatest wealth is health.

Thirdly, there is the “reward”, the good thing or feeling we get from the routine.
For example, when we feel unhappy (cue), we eat lots of unhealthy snacks (routine), which makes us feel happy (reward). The reward makes us much more likely to continue the cycle, and the bad habit of relying on unhealthy snacks is formed.

Bad habits are hard to change because we are usually doing something we really like, but we are doing it too much.
Unhealthy habits include smoking, eating too much, playing too much on your computer or phone, and not doing enough exercise.
I think people can correct these bad habits by thinking about them more and deciding they will feel better and happier if they stop them.
