（2024·四川内江·统考一模）In elementary school, Glenn Cameron was very aware of the challenges faced by his friend, Roger, who was missing a hand. Now he has built an artificial helper for him.
The robotic hand is called “Dexi”. Its each finger can move independently. The strength and speed of the hand’s “muscles” can be controlled. The fingers stop closing when they come across something, allowing the hand to shake hands, for example. He’s also created a digital version of this hand, which responds on a computer screen. The system considered unusual by experts is that it takes electrical signals from a human brain and sends them to a computer. Cameron managed to apply the brain interface (接口) after hundreds of experiments. Wearing a special headset, he can open and close the robotic hand just by thinking. To make the hand close, he “sees” a fist in his head. To open the hand, he thinks about the beep (嘟嘟声).
In fact, Cameron’s first robotic hand was 3D printed from an online robot kit. Realizing the hand was too limited, he decided to build his own. It was quite a challenge, but his new version was better. It’s also cheap, compared to many other robotic hand projects. Mr. Cameron says designing and building the hand is hard and finds programming computers easier. Then came the one Roger is using.
Cameron is working on a hand that can actually be used by a person who’s lost a hand at present. He says the new hand will be simpler, because there won’t be as much space. To make up for this, he’s adding a mini camera and trying to make the hand smarter. He wants to let users think of a task and have the hand do it automatically.
Cameron encourages young people who think they might want to do something demanding and similar: “You just begin working towards it, taking one little step at a time, purposeful and determined, sooner or later you’re going to get to where you long for.”
24．What’s the most special about the robotic hand Roger uses
A．The mini camera. B．Controllable muscles.
C．3D printing. D．The brain interface.
25．Which version of the artificial hand does Dexi belong to
A．The first. B．The second. C．The third. D．The fourth.
26．Which saying do Cameron’s words convey
A．Well begun is half done.
B．Nothing is impossible to a willing heart.
C．All things are difficult before they are easy.
D．The longest journey begins with the first step.
27．What is the text mainly about
A．Cameron’s road to success. B．A robotic helper for the disabled.
C．Cameron’s latest artificial hand design. D．The evolution of Cameron’s robotic hands.
【答案】24．D 25．C 26．B 27．D
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了Cameron为了帮助失去了一只手的朋友Roger，为他设计并制造出了可以由电脑控制的机械手。
24．细节理解题。根据第二段中“The system considered unusual by experts is that it takes electrical signals from a human brain and sends them to a computer. Cameron managed to apply the brain interface (接口) after hundreds of experiments.(这个系统被专家认为是不寻常的，它从人脑中获取电信号并将其发送给计算机。经过数百次实验，Cameron设法成功地应用了大脑接口。)”可知，Roger使用的机械手最特别的地方是大脑接口。故选D项。
25．推理判断题。根据第三段“In fact, Cameron’s first robotic hand was 3D printed from an online robot kit. Realizing the hand was too limited, he decided to build his own. It was quite a challenge, but his new version was better. It’s also cheap, compared to many other robotic hand projects. Mr. Cameron says designing and building the hand is hard and finds programming computers easier. Then came the one Roger is using.(事实上，Cameron的第一只机械手是用在线机器人套件3D打印出来的。意识到这只手太有限，他决定自己制造一只机械手。这是一个相当大的挑战，但他的新版本更好。与许多其他机械手项目相比，它也很便宜。Cameron先生说，设计和制造机械手是困难的，而给电脑编程更容易。然后就有了Roger正在使用的那个。)”可知，Roger的第一只机械手是Cameron在网上3D打印的，第二只是Cameron自己制造的，后来又有了Roger现在用的这只Dexi，所以Dexi是第三个版本。故选C项。
26．推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Cameron encourages young people who think they might want to do something demanding and similar: ‘You just begin working towards it, taking one little step at a time, purposeful and determined, sooner or later you’re going to get to where you long for.’(Cameron鼓励那些想要做一些有挑战性的类似的事情的年轻人:‘你只要开始朝着它努力，一次迈出一小步，有目标，有决心，迟早你会到达你渴望的地方。’)”可知，Cameron想要表达只要有梦想，并为之坚持，就会成功，即“有志者，事竟成”。故选B项。
27．主旨大意题。根据第一段“In elementary school, Glenn Cameron was very aware of the challenges faced by his friend, Roger, who was missing a hand. Now he has built an artificial helper for him.(上小学的时候，Glenn Cameron非常清楚他的朋友Roger所面临的挑战，他失去了一只手。现在他为他制造了一只机械手来帮助他。)”和第三段“In fact, Cameron’s first robotic hand was 3D printed from an online robot kit. Realizing the hand was too limited, he decided to build his own. It was quite a challenge, but his new version was better. It’s also cheap, compared to many other robotic hand projects.

（2024·全国·校联考模拟预测）The measurement of blood pressure goes back almost three centuries, leading to the procedure that we all know and that our family doctor performs when we have checkups: A cuff (袖口) goes around our arm, which is first inflated (膨胀), and then deflated (放气), in a controlled manner, to determine our maximum and minimum blood pressure.
But the use of inflatable-cuff blood pressure monitors has some disadvantages. For one thing, unless people have home monitors, they must go to a chemistry shop, doctor’s office or health center to learn what their blood pressure is. Another barrier is that repeated inflation and deflation of the cuff can cause difficulties when, for example, a patient is in the hospital and needs frequent blood pressure monitoring. And the last one is that since cuffs don’t allow continuous measurement of blood pressure, they’re only providing a measurement at a specific moment.
Today, a new generation of blood pressure devices have been developed and their aim is to make it easier to judge high blood pressure. Unlike traditional devices, they do without the arm cuff and offer blood pressure values on demand. Users just press their finger on a sensor on a watch and ring.
The various cuffless measuring devices are based on methods that, instead of directly determining blood pressure, use sensors to capture various indirect signals. These signals are processed by different sets of mathematical procedures to obtain the blood pressure values. It is like inferring fever by measuring an increase in heart beat and sweating instead of using a thermometer (体温表), or divining the result of a soccer match from outside the stadium by listening to the screams of the soccer fans.
The development of devices for measuring blood pressure without a blood pressure cuff is progressing rapidly, but that doesn’t mean they are ready used to make diagnostic and treatment decisions. “The road to clinical application may be some day in the near future, but not now,” Avolio says.
28．How many drawbacks of inflatable-cuff blood pressure monitors are there in the text
A．Two. B．Three. C．Four. D．Five.
29．Which word can replace the underline word in Para. 4
A．changing. B．describing. C．guessing. D．remembering.
30．What’s the fourth paragraph mainly about
A．The working principle of cuffless measuring devices.
B．The different methods for setting mathematical procedures.
C．The way of cuffless measuring devices to measure indirect signals.
D．The connection between inferring fever and measuring blood pressure.
31．What will the writer most probably talk about on cuffless measuring devices next
A．The issue of mass-producing them.
B．The processing techniques of them.
C．The competitive intensity among their producers.
D．The reasons for them not being used in the medical world currently.
【答案】28．B 29．C 30．A 31．D
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了新一代的血压测量设备。
28．细节理解题。根据第二段中“For one thing, unless people have home monitors, they must go to a chemistry shop, doctor’s office or health center to learn what their blood pressure is. Another barrier is that repeated inflation and deflation of the cuff can cause difficulties when, for example, a patient is in the hospital and needs frequent blood pressure monitoring. And the last one is that since cuffs don’t allow continuous measurement of blood pressure, they’re only providing a measurement at a specific moment. (一方面，除非人们有家用监测仪，否则他们必须去化学商店、医生办公室或健康中心了解他们的血压。另一个障碍是，袖带的反复充气和充气可能会造成困难，例如，当病人住院并需要频繁监测血压时。最后一点是，由于袖口不允许持续测量血压，它们只能提供特定时刻的测量。)”可知，传统的可充气的臂袖式血压仪有三个不足之处。故选B项。
29．词句猜测题。第四段划线词句前半部分“It is like inferring fever by measuring an increase in heart beat and sweating instead of using a thermometer (体温表), (这就像不使用体温表，而是通过心跳和出汗的增加来推测发烧，)”列举了一种间接推测的事例，从而推知划线部分“or divining the result of a soccer match from outside the stadium by listening to the screams of the soccer fans (或者通过球迷的尖叫声来divining足球比赛的结果。)”其中划线单词意思是“（间接）猜测（足球比赛结果）”。故选C项。
30．主旨大意题。根据第四段中“The various cuffless measuring devices are based on methods that, instead of directly determining blood pressure, use sensors to capture various indirect signals. These signals are processed by different sets of mathematical procedures to obtain the blood pressure values. (各种无臂袖测量设备的方法，而不是直接测量血压，使用传感器捕捉各种间接信号。这些信号经过不同的数学程序处理，得到血压值。)”可知，本段主要讲的是无臂袖式测量设备的工作原理。故选A项。
31．推理判断题。根据最后一段中“The development of devices for measuring blood pressure without a blood pressure cuff is progressing rapidly, but that doesn’t mean they are ready used to make diagnostic and treatment decisions. (不用血压计袖带测量血压的设备正在迅速发展，但这并不意味着它们已经准备好用于诊断和治疗决策。)”以及Avolio所说“The road to clinical application may be some day in the near future, but not now. (临床应用的道路可能在不久的将来的某一天，但不是现在。)”可知，接下来作者很有可能会介绍新一代无臂袖式血压测量设备在医疗行业中使用的原因。故选D项。

（2024·全国·校联考模拟预测）Under a midday summer sun in California’s Sacramento Valley, rice farmer Peter Rystrom walks across a dusty and bare plot of land, dry soil crunching (碎裂) beneath each step. In a typical year, he’d be walking across green rice fields in inches of water. But today the soil is dry and baking in the 35℃ heat. It hasn’t rained for 4 weeks in a row.
“Climate change is expected to worsen the state’s extreme swings in rainfall,” researchers reported in Nature Climate Change in 2018. Low water levels in rivers have forced farmers like Rystrom, whose family has been growing rice on this land for four generations, to reduce their water use.
“If we lose our rice crops, we have to deal with severe food crisis. Climate change is already threatening rice-growing regions around the world. This is not a future problem. This is happening now,” says plant geneticist Pamela Ronald of the University of California, Davis, who identifies genes in rice that help the plant stand up to dryness, disease, flood, etc.
To save and even boost production, rice growers, engineers and researchers have turned to water-saving irrigation (灌溉) routines. Building canal systems and reservoirs (水库) can help farmers dampen their fields. But for some, the solution to rice’s climate-related problems lies in enhancing the plant itself. They hold that establishing rice gene banks that store hundreds of thousands of rice varieties ready to be bred into new, dryness-tolerant varieties is more practical and effective. Solutions may be hidden in the DNA of those older breeds.
Three decades have passed since its initial development, and some researchers are looking beyond the genetic variability preserved in rice gene banks, searching instead for useful genes from other species, including plants and bacteria. But picking genes from one species and putting them into another, or genetic recombination, remains debatable. The most famous example of genetically changed rice is Golden Rice (GR). “Looking ahead, it will be crucial for countries to embrace GR rice. But it will take time,” says Ismail, principal scientist at IRRI,
32．What problem does Rystrom have to deal with
A．Thirst. B．Drought. C．Hot sun. D．Dusty weather.
33．What can be inferred from Para. 3
A．Downtrend of rice-growing areas is severe now.
B．Climate change is a threatening factor in the future.
C．Humans will face starvation if crop failure happens.
D．Food crisis is a common occurrence around the world.
34．What’s the purpose of setting up gene banks
A．To store as many seeds as possible. B．To cultivate climate-adapted varieties.
C．To improve the efficiency of breeding. D．To show the technology of gene mapping.
35．What’s Ismail’s opinion about GR
A．Favourable. B．Impractical. C．Disapproving. D．Insecure.
【答案】32．B 33．C 34．B 35．A
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了气候变化已经威胁到世界各地的水稻种植区，并讨论了解决方案。
32．细节理解题。根据第一段中“But today the soil is dry and baking in the 35℃ heat. It hasn’t rained for 4 weeks in a row. (但今天，土壤干燥，在35℃的高温下炙烤。已经连续四周没下雨了)”等内容和第二段中“Low water levels in rivers have forced farmers like Rystrom, whose family has been growing rice on this land for four generations, to reduce their water use. (河流的低水位迫使像Rystrom这样的农民减少用水量，他们的家庭已经在这片土地上种植了四代水稻)”可知，Rystrom急需解决田地干旱的问题。故选B项。

（2023·全国·模拟预测）One of the easiest and most satisfying ways to express your creativity is by drawing. 36 It can also help distract (使分心) you from negative thoughts, clear your mind, and provide you with a constructive way to release emotion. But how to relieve stress by drawing
◎ 37 Content does not matter as much as the ideas you associate with whatever you choose to draw. If you find mountains or trees relaxing to be around, try your hand at drawing. Other likely candidates include: pets, flowers, leaves, fruits, a building or place you admire or have positive memories in.
◎Be somewhere with minimal distractions. 38 Somewhere private is best, as your drawing will not be disturbed by the presence of others, and you will be less likely to be interrupted. Drawing outside can also give you inspiration and ideas of things to draw.
◎Release emotion onto the sheets of paper. Without intending to draw anything in particular, simply apply your drawing to a blank sheet of paper. Close your eyes. Focus on whatever emotions you’re feeling and would like to get rid of. Once you’re focused on emotion, allow it to pass through your arm and hand onto the sheet of paper. Allow your emotion, not your mind, to give orders to the movement of the pen or pencil. 39
◎Have some fun when drawing. 40 Don’t worry about the final product and don’t judge your artistic abilities. Lose yourself in the experience of creation! Sitting down to draw for just a few minutes can make you get a boost in energy and may even feel more open-minded for the rest of the day.
A．Let yourself enjoy the process.
B．Draw something that comforts you.
C．Just gather the tools you need and start drawing.
D．Further, drawing can calm you down in multiple ways.
E．Hang the drawing up somewhere it will catch your eye.
F．Switch off your phone, and avoid areas with televisions or computers.
G．Whatever comes out on the page is simply an expression of your feelings.
【答案】36．D 37．B 38．F 39．G 40．A
【导语】这是一篇说明文 。本文主要介绍如何通过画画这种最简单且最令人满意的方式来缓解压力。
36．根据上文“One of the easiest and most satisfying ways to express your creativity is by drawing.(表达你的创造力的最简单和最令人满意的方法之一就是画画)”以及后文“It can also help distract (使分心) you from negative thoughts, clear your mind, and provide you with a constructive way to release emotion.(它还可以帮助你从消极的想法中转移注意力，清理你的大脑，并为你提供一种建设性的方式来释放情绪)”可知，后文说明了画画的好处, 所以空处也应是说明画画的好处。故D项“此外，绘画可以通过多种方式让你平静下来。”也是在谈论画画的好处，且其中的 Further与上文形成了递进关系。故选D。
37．分析文章结构及空处所在的位置可知, 本空应填本段的主旨句。结合空后的“If you find mountains or trees relaxing to be around, try your hand at drawing. Other likely candidates include: pets, flowers, leaves, fruits, a building or place you admire or have positive memories in.(如果你觉得周围的山或树很放松，那就试着画画吧。其他可能的候选者包括：宠物、鲜花、树叶、水果、你欣赏或有积极记忆的建筑或地方)”可知，这一段主要是说, 画一些让你感到安慰的事物。故B项“画一些能安慰你的东西”符合此处的语境。故选B。
38．根据本段的主旨句“Be somewhere with minimal distractions.(去一个分心事物最少的地方)”以及后文“Somewhere private is best, as your drawing will not be disturbed by the presence of others, and you will be less likely to be interrupted.(在私密的地方画画是最好的，因为你的画不会被其他人打扰，你也不太可能被打断)”可知，空处应是对前一句的进一步解释说明，应与“做一些避免被分心的事”有关，故F项“关掉你的手机，并且避免(出现在)有电视或电脑的地方。”承上启下。故选F。
39．空处位于段尾，应是对前文内容的总结。结合本段的主旨句“Release emotion onto the sheets of paper.(把情绪释放到纸上)”以及空前两句“Once you’re focused on emotion, allow it to pass through your arm and hand onto the sheet of paper. Allow your emotion, not your mind, to give orders to the movement of the pen or pencil.(一旦你专注于情绪，让它穿过你的手臂和手到纸上。让你的情感，而不是你的头脑，来命令笔或铅笔的运动)”可知空处应是对“把情绪释放到纸上”的总结，故G项“页面上出现的任何东西都只是你的情感的一种表达。”符合此处的语境。故选 G。
40．根据前一句“Have some fun when drawing.(画画的时候要过得开心)”可知，接下来应是对这一句的补充说明，再结合空后一句的“Don’t worry about the final product and don’t judge your artistic abilities.(不要担心最终的产品，也不要评判你的艺术能力)”可知，此处表示“要享受过程。”故A项“让自己享受这个过程。”符合此处的语境。故选A。

（2024·四川内江·统考一模）In elementary school, Glenn Cameron was very aware of the challenges faced by his friend, Roger, who was missing a hand. Now he has built an artificial helper for him.
The robotic hand is called “Dexi”. Its each finger can move independently. The strength and speed of the hand’s “muscles” can be controlled. The fingers stop closing when they come across something, allowing the hand to shake hands, for example. He’s also created a digital version of this hand, which responds on a computer screen. The system considered unusual by experts is that it takes electrical signals from a human brain and sends them to a computer. Cameron managed to apply the brain interface (接口) after hundreds of experiments. Wearing a special headset, he can open and close the robotic hand just by thinking. To make the hand close, he “sees” a fist in his head. To open the hand, he thinks about the beep (嘟嘟声).
In fact, Cameron’s first robotic hand was 3D printed from an online robot kit. Realizing the hand was too limited, he decided to build his own. It was quite a challenge, but his new version was better. It’s also cheap, compared to many other robotic hand projects. Mr. Cameron says designing and building the hand is hard and finds programming computers easier. Then came the one Roger is using.
Cameron is working on a hand that can actually be used by a person who’s lost a hand at present. He says the new hand will be simpler, because there won’t be as much space. To make up for this, he’s adding a mini camera and trying to make the hand smarter. He wants to let users think of a task and have the hand do it automatically.
Cameron encourages young people who think they might want to do something demanding and similar: “You just begin working towards it, taking one little step at a time, purposeful and determined, sooner or later you’re going to get to where you long for.”
24．What’s the most special about the robotic hand Roger uses
A．The mini camera. B．Controllable muscles.
C．3D printing. D．The brain interface.
25．Which version of the artificial hand does Dexi belong to
A．The first. B．The second. C．The third. D．The fourth.
26．Which saying do Cameron’s words convey
A．Well begun is half done.
B．Nothing is impossible to a willing heart.
C．All things are difficult before they are easy.
D．The longest journey begins with the first step.
27．What is the text mainly about
A．Cameron’s road to success. B．A robotic helper for the disabled.
C．Cameron’s latest artificial hand design. D．The evolution of Cameron’s robotic hands.

（2024·全国·校联考模拟预测）The measurement of blood pressure goes back almost three centuries, leading to the procedure that we all know and that our family doctor performs when we have checkups: A cuff (袖口) goes around our arm, which is first inflated (膨胀), and then deflated (放气), in a controlled manner, to determine our maximum and minimum blood pressure.
But the use of inflatable-cuff blood pressure monitors has some disadvantages. For one thing, unless people have home monitors, they must go to a chemistry shop, doctor’s office or health center to learn what their blood pressure is. Another barrier is that repeated inflation and deflation of the cuff can cause difficulties when, for example, a patient is in the hospital and needs frequent blood pressure monitoring. And the last one is that since cuffs don’t allow continuous measurement of blood pressure, they’re only providing a measurement at a specific moment.
Today, a new generation of blood pressure devices have been developed and their aim is to make it easier to judge high blood pressure. Unlike traditional devices, they do without the arm cuff and offer blood pressure values on demand. Users just press their finger on a sensor on a watch and ring.
The various cuffless measuring devices are based on methods that, instead of directly determining blood pressure, use sensors to capture various indirect signals. These signals are processed by different sets of mathematical procedures to obtain the blood pressure values. It is like inferring fever by measuring an increase in heart beat and sweating instead of using a thermometer (体温表), or divining the result of a soccer match from outside the stadium by listening to the screams of the soccer fans.
The development of devices for measuring blood pressure without a blood pressure cuff is progressing rapidly, but that doesn’t mean they are ready used to make diagnostic and treatment decisions. “The road to clinical application may be some day in the near future, but not now,” Avolio says.
28．How many drawbacks of inflatable-cuff blood pressure monitors are there in the text
A．Two. B．Three. C．Four. D．Five.
29．Which word can replace the underline word in Para. 4
A．changing. B．describing. C．guessing. D．remembering.
30．What’s the fourth paragraph mainly about
A．The working principle of cuffless measuring devices.
B．The different methods for setting mathematical procedures.
C．The way of cuffless measuring devices to measure indirect signals.
D．The connection between inferring fever and measuring blood pressure.
31．What will the writer most probably talk about on cuffless measuring devices next
A．The issue of mass-producing them.
B．The processing techniques of them.
C．The competitive intensity among their producers.
D．The reasons for them not being used in the medical world currently.

（2024·全国·校联考模拟预测）Under a midday summer sun in California’s Sacramento Valley, rice farmer Peter Rystrom walks across a dusty and bare plot of land, dry soil crunching (碎裂) beneath each step. In a typical year, he’d be walking across green rice fields in inches of water. But today the soil is dry and baking in the 35℃ heat. It hasn’t rained for 4 weeks in a row.
“Climate change is expected to worsen the state’s extreme swings in rainfall,” researchers reported in Nature Climate Change in 2018. Low water levels in rivers have forced farmers like Rystrom, whose family has been growing rice on this land for four generations, to reduce their water use.
“If we lose our rice crops, we have to deal with severe food crisis. Climate change is already threatening rice-growing regions around the world. This is not a future problem. This is happening now,” says plant geneticist Pamela Ronald of the University of California, Davis, who identifies genes in rice that help the plant stand up to dryness, disease, flood, etc.
To save and even boost production, rice growers, engineers and researchers have turned to water-saving irrigation (灌溉) routines. Building canal systems and reservoirs (水库) can help farmers dampen their fields. But for some, the solution to rice’s climate-related problems lies in enhancing the plant itself. They hold that establishing rice gene banks that store hundreds of thousands of rice varieties ready to be bred into new, dryness-tolerant varieties is more practical and effective. Solutions may be hidden in the DNA of those older breeds.
Three decades have passed since its initial development, and some researchers are looking beyond the genetic variability preserved in rice gene banks, searching instead for useful genes from other species, including plants and bacteria. But picking genes from one species and putting them into another, or genetic recombination, remains debatable. The most famous example of genetically changed rice is Golden Rice (GR). “Looking ahead, it will be crucial for countries to embrace GR rice. But it will take time,” says Ismail, principal scientist at IRRI,
32．What problem does Rystrom have to deal with
A．Thirst. B．Drought. C．Hot sun. D．Dusty weather.
33．What can be inferred from Para. 3
A．Downtrend of rice-growing areas is severe now.
B．Climate change is a threatening factor in the future.
C．Humans will face starvation if crop failure happens.
D．Food crisis is a common occurrence around the world.
34．What’s the purpose of setting up gene banks
A．To store as many seeds as possible. B．To cultivate climate-adapted varieties.
C．To improve the efficiency of breeding. D．To show the technology of gene mapping.
35．What’s Ismail’s opinion about GR
A．Favourable. B．Impractical. C．Disapproving. D．Insecure.

（2023·全国·模拟预测）One of the easiest and most satisfying ways to express your creativity is by drawing. 36 It can also help distract (使分心) you from negative thoughts, clear your mind, and provide you with a constructive way to release emotion. But how to relieve stress by drawing
◎ 37 Content does not matter as much as the ideas you associate with whatever you choose to draw. If you find mountains or trees relaxing to be around, try your hand at drawing. Other likely candidates include: pets, flowers, leaves, fruits, a building or place you admire or have positive memories in.
◎Be somewhere with minimal distractions. 38 Somewhere private is best, as your drawing will not be disturbed by the presence of others, and you will be less likely to be interrupted. Drawing outside can also give you inspiration and ideas of things to draw.
◎Release emotion onto the sheets of paper. Without intending to draw anything in particular, simply apply your drawing to a blank sheet of paper. Close your eyes. Focus on whatever emotions you’re feeling and would like to get rid of. Once you’re focused on emotion, allow it to pass through your arm and hand onto the sheet of paper. Allow your emotion, not your mind, to give orders to the movement of the pen or pencil. 39
◎Have some fun when drawing. 40 Don’t worry about the final product and don’t judge your artistic abilities. Lose yourself in the experience of creation! Sitting down to draw for just a few minutes can make you get a boost in energy and may even feel more open-minded for the rest of the day.
A．Let yourself enjoy the process.
B．Draw something that comforts you.
C．Just gather the tools you need and start drawing.
D．Further, drawing can calm you down in multiple ways.
E．Hang the drawing up somewhere it will catch your eye.
F．Switch off your phone, and avoid areas with televisions or computers.
G．Whatever comes out on the page is simply an expression of your feelings.
