The Earth is one huge, living organism, and we have the privilege of calling it home. We enjoy the beauty of blue skies, the shade of tall trees, and the soft motion of waves.
Being able to breathe clean air is largely a result of the way plants absorb carbon and purify the air on our planet home. The Amazon forest functions as Earth's lungs. But deforestation(毁林) has made it difficult for the jungle to do its job.
Though there are many efforts to plant trees, the remoteness of the jungles makes it difficult. LuigiCani, the world-record-holding skydiver, felt like there was something he could do. After 14,000jumps, Cani was ready to put his skills to good use.
Cani picked a 100-square-kilometer patch of land that needed to be reseeded in the northern part of the rainforest. The planning was detailed. For two months, seeds were collected by hand from nearby native plants. A special box the size of a refrigerator was built, a landing site was identified, and all the permits were secured from the local governments. The box had its own drag parachute(降落伞) to slow it down so Cani could catch up to it as it fell, open it at the right altitude, then safely throw it away and open his parachute.
The result was a cloud of 100 million seeds, bursting from the box like mad insects and settling into a gentle storm of potential trees floating from the sky in a beautiful eruption of life. The seeds fell at exactly where they needed to be. Ultimately, 95% would germinate(发芽) successfully. Like a proud father, Cani charts their growth via satellite images. Some trees will reach 50 meters in height, guarding the Amazon for generations to come.
Cani isn't done with his efforts to care for our earthly home. His next jump will bring skydiving and ocean cleanup together. “Like the seed drop, this next project will have real meaning behind it.”
24. What is a challenge to grow trees in the Amazon
A. The extreme climate. B. The inaccessibility of the jungles.
C. Lack of effective methods. D. People's deforestation.
25. What did Cani do to help
A. He helped to drop seeds. B. He donated parachutes.
C. He made seeds germinate. D. He collected insects.
26. Which word can be used to describe Luigi Cani
A. Determined and proud. B. Charitable and wealthy.
C. Talented and generous. D. Responsible and courageous.
27. What can be the best title for the passage
A. Collecting Millions of Seeds
B. Luigi Cani—a Record-Breaker
C. The Amazon Forest— Earth's Lungs
D. Reforesting the Amazon with Luigi Cani's Efforts

Over the last decade, the majority of businesses have changed to cashless transactions(交易). This shift to a subscription-based economy has been seen as a win-win for businesses and consumers alike,offering predictable income streams for companies and user convenience. However, it seems that the consumers may not be benefiting as much as we think.
At its core, the subscription model is economically advantageous for businesses. It transforms unpredictable purchases into steady income. This predictability is gold for companies, enabling better financial planning, investment, and growth strategies. For startups and established businesses alike, the allure of a subscription model lies in its ability to foster customer loyalty and generate consistent cash flow, elements crucial for survival and expansion in competitive markets.
For consumers, recognizing the negative effects of the subscription model requires a deeper understanding of its impact on spending behavior, particularly in the context of digital transactions. This model influences how consumers perceive and engage with their spending. The transition from traditional one-time purchases to a subscription-based approach capitalizes on the less tangible nature of digital payments, which can often lead to increased consumer spending.
This problem worsens in the context of subscription services, where consumers typically forget their subscriptions due to automated payments. Subscriptions tend to use the psychological principle of“set it and forget it.” This aspect is particularly beneficial for companies as it reduces churn rates(流失率)and increases customer lifetime value while allowing targeted marketing that further enhances profitability. However, this negatively impacts the consumers and it is easy for companies to raise prices without us fully realizing it.
Subscription culture has reshaped consumer behavior and financial habits with a combination of convenience and continuous access. Although these services offer a steady income model for businesses,they pose a risk of unnoticed financial loss, especially for people with budget constraints. The solution lies in users’ carefully managing subscriptions and ensuring that their chosen services provide ongoing value rather than serving as silent financial stress.
28. What does the underlined word“allure” in paragraph 2 probably mean
A. Principle. B. Precondition. C. Attraction. D. Challenge.
29. What disadvantage of cashless transactions is mentioned
A. The possibility of overspending. B. The damage to individual credit.
C. The dependence on online banking. D. The difficulty in withdrawing the payment.
30. What is most likely to be the author's advice
A. Seek legal help when necessary. B. Manage subscriptions with care.
C. Keep track of the businesses closely. D. Cancel automated payment on the phone.
31. What is the author's attitude toward the subscription-based economy
A. Objective. B. Doubtful. C. Optimistic. D. Critical.
D
In an emerging red flag for the digital era, sleep experts have warned us to avoid screen time in bed, sounding the alarm that light emitted from phones and other electronic devices can disrupt(扰乱)our sleep patterns.
Now, researchers have found that light disruption is not only a health concern for humans. A new study led by Professor James Nieh has found that artificial light disrupts the sleep-wake cycles of honey bees and poses a threat to their essential role as pollinators(传粉者).
Honey bees generally prefer to nest in dark environments and play a crucial role as pollinators of wild plants and important crops, providing services that support ecosystem stability and global food security. Without pollination, crops worth tens of millions of dollars would be at risk.
Like us, when bees experience a poor night's sleep and disrupted sleep patterns, problems in behavior and function emerge. Sleep is crucial for the health and fitness of honey bees since they depend on a complicated system of communication known as the“waggle dance” that informs nest mates about the location of food sources in the environment. Bees dance more poorly and therefore do not communicate as well if they do not get enough sleep.
In the experiments, researchers compared groups of bees that sleep in the dark with others that were subjected to continuous artificial light. The results clearly showed that exposure to light for a long time significantly disrupted the sleep pattern of honey bees, leading to impaired(受损的) behaviors.
“Even without analyzing the data you can tell that there was something going on. .. the bees that were under constant light slept less and were more frequently disturbed by other bees compared to those kept in normal darkness. Also, bees under continuous light exhibited a preference for darker areas within their experimental cages,” said Nieh.
“Understanding the factors that affect bee health, such as light pollution, is essential for developing strategies to protect pollinator populations, and this research sheds new light on how such disturbances may be harming pollinators,” said Nieh.
32. What is the researchers' new finding
A. Honey bees are highly active insects.
B. Artificial light is a danger to the ecosystem.
C. Electronic devices can disrupt people's sleep patterns.
D. Bees’ health depends on the change of their environment.
33. Why is the waggle dance mentioned in the text
A. To prove the intelligence of honey bees.
B. To show how bees' sleep pattern is disrupted.
C. To point out the importance of sleep for bees.
D. To indicate how bees are different from other insects.
34. What phenomenon appeared in the experiments
A. The energetic bees tended to sleep less.
B. The bees in the dark often disturbed each other.
C. The bees with impaired behaviors stopped dancing.
D. The bees exposed to constant artificial light preferred darkness.
35. Which statement might Nieh agree with
A. Light pollution is killing bees in nature.
B. Light pollution is not a small thing for bees.
C. Bees dance better in the sun than in the street light.
D. Bees change their sleep pattern to adapt to the environment.

How to Stop Making Excuses and Start Living Instead
Whether it's delaying a difficult conversation or putting off pursuing your biggest dreams, excuses provide us with a temporary shelter from the discomfort we face in our daily lives. 36 By remaining in our comfort zone, we fail to grow and miss out on the good things life has to offer.
37 They make excuses, get stuck in their lives, and repeat the process over and over again.As a former excuse-maker myself, I have learned first hand just what it takes to learn how to stop making excuses for good. In this passage, I will share several practical tips on how to stop making excuses.
As we all know, one of the most common reasons that people make excuses is to avoid responsibility. To stop making excuses, you should shift the focus to your own duty. 38 Accepting full responsibility will definitely be uncomfortable at first. But it's the most important thing you can do to break free from excuse-making.
Besides, you should challenge your limiting beliefs. We all have limiting beliefs that form the foundation of different types of excuses that we make. 39 They show up as you tell yourself that you' ll never succeed or that certain goals are out of reach. Consider replacing the negative thoughts with more positive beliefs.
Setting goals is one of the best ways to overcome excuses. When setting goals, it's important to be realistic about what you want to achieve. Try breaking big dreams into specific and achievable goals. 40
A. In this way, you can easily set a realistic goal.
B. These excuses will leave others a bad impression.
C. There are many examples of limiting beliefs in our lives.
D. In my life, I see a lot of people get stuck in the same cycle.
E. Then you' ll notice the excuses you make begin to lose their power.
F. The more concrete your goals are, the less room there is for excuses.
G. However, they do this at the cost of our long-term sense of satisfaction.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My tears flowed when the commercial came on again. It seemed like the station was playing this commercial every fifteen minutes, and I couldn't bear to see it again. I don't know what the advertisement was trying to sell, but a large, lovely family was gathered around a long table with a bountiful Thanksgiving dinner. Everyone was talking, laughing, and beaming happily at one another.
That was my family once. Those were such happy times, and I never thought about the time when they would be just a memory. For the past three years, there has only been me. This Thanksgiving, Iplanned to open a can of soup and sit alone at my kitchen table again. It would just be me and my memories.
The next morning, I went to the supermarket to pick up a few things. Most of the other shoppers were putting huge turkeys and hams in their carts, preparing for Thanksgiving Day. I stood looking at the cans of soup while people with carts full with all kinds of wonderful things passed me. I sighed.“You can do a little better than this,” I said to myself, looking at the turkey in my hand.
On my way out of the store, I stopped by the bulletin board where people posted things for sale,odd jobs they needed done, babysitter want ads, and so forth. I paused in front of the bulletin board as an idea formed in my mind. Before I could talk myself out of it, I fished around in my purse for the paper and pen. There was a bench nearby, and I sat down to carefully compose my note. It had to sound sincere.
My heart raced as I wrote it:
Are you going to be alone on Thanksgiving Day So am I. But we don't have to be. Let's get together and share a meal, some conversations, and some companionship. Everyone who is interested is encouraged to reply. No restrictions of any kind. Any age, sex, race, religion, etc. If you, like me,don't look forward to being alone on Thanksgiving Day, please call.
注意：
1.续写词数应为150个左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
But on my way home, I regretted writing that note.
On the fifth day, I had ten people eager to be a part of the Thanksgiving dinner..

25. A 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Cani picked a 100-square-kilometer patch of land that needed to be reseeded inthe northern part of the rainforest.”以及第五段内容可知,卡尼利用他的跳伞技能帮助在亚马孙地区上空播撒种子，故选A。
26. D 推理判断题。根据文章内容可知，卡尼在亚马孙地区敢于进行高空撒种以帮助亚马孙地区的森林恢复，由此推断他是有责任心的，而且也是勇敢的。
27. D 标题归纳题。文章主要介绍了卡尼利用自己的跳伞技术帮助在亚马孙热带雨林地区撒种以帮助恢复雨林的故事，由此推断D选项可以概括文章内容，为最佳标题。
C
本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了如今无现金交易的这种订阅型经济给企业和消费者带来的好处以及给消费者带来的负面的影响。
28. C 词义猜测题。第二段提到了订阅模式对企业具有经济上的优势，订阅模式能提高用户忠诚度并带来持续的现金流，对初创公司和老牌企业来说，这是吸引他们的一点，由此推断C选项和画线词意思接近。
29. A 细节理解题。根据第三段中“This model influences how consumers perceive... which can often lead toincreased consumer spending.”可知,这种订阅经济会让消费者忽略自己的花费,导致消费过度。
30. B 推理判断题。根据末段中“The solution lies in users’ carefully managing subscriptions and ensuring that theirchosen services provide ongoing value rather than serving as silent financial stress.”可知,作者建议用户仔细管理订阅情况，并确保他们选择的服务能提供持续的价值，而不是作为无声的财务压力。
31. A 推理判断题。文章第二段介绍了订阅经济对企业的好处，在随后的几段中介绍了这种订阅模式对消费者的负面影响，而且作者在末段再次重申了自己的观点，由此判断作者对这种模式的态度是客观的。
D
本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了人造光会导致蜜蜂出现睡眠问题，这会影响到蜜蜂对食物来源位置的交流，对它们作为传粉者的重要作用构成威胁。
32. B 细节理解题。根据第二段中“A new study... has found that artificial light disrupts the sleep-wake cycles ofhoney bees and poses a threat to their essential role as pollinators.”可知,新的研究发现人造光会扰乱蜜蜂的昼夜节律，并对它们作为传粉者的重要作用构成威胁，再结合第三段内容可知，人造光会影响生态系统的健康。
33. C 推理判断题。根据第四段中“Sleep is crucial for the health and fitness of honey bees since... Bees dance morepoorly and therefore do not communicate as well if they do not get enough sleep.”可推知,作者提到蜜蜂的“摇摆舞”是为了说明睡眠对蜜蜂健康的重要作用。
34. D 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“Also, bees under continuous light ex hibited a preference for darker areaswithin their experimental cages”可知,持续光照下的蜜蜂表现出对实验笼中较暗区域的偏好。
35. B 推理判断题。根据第四段中“Bees dance more poorly and therefore do not communicate as well if they do not get enough sleep.”以及第五段中“The results clearly showed that exposure to light for a long time significantly disrupted the sleep pattern of honey bees, leading to impaired behaviors.”可推知,光污染对蜜蜂来说不是小事。
本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了人们喜欢找借口的原因、习惯找借口的坏处以及如何帮助人们改掉这个坏习惯。
36. G 前句提到借口看似给人们带来的好处，后句指出如果一直待在舒适区的坏处，由此推断所填内容应该和“借口给人们带来的坏处”有关，和前句构成对比关系，而和后句构成顺承关系，故判断G选项“然而，借口让我们一直待在舒适区里，而这是以我们长期的满足感为代价的”内容符合语境。
37. D 后句指出“他们找借口，困在生活中，一遍又一遍地重复这个过程”，这是对前句内容的解释，句中的“... repeat the process over and over again”和D 选项中的“the same cycle”属于相似表达。
38. E 空前提出了具体停止找借口的方法，即“需要把注意力转移到你的职责上”，因此判断后句可能介绍这种方法带来的好处，故判断E选项内容“然后你会发现你找的借口开始失去效力”可以承接上文。
39. C 空后内容指出了几种人们的限制性信念，是对C选项“在我们的生活中有很多限制性信念的例子”的例证，信息词为“examples”。
40. F 空前内容建议人们要试着把大的梦想分解成具体的、可实现的目标，因此判断F选项“目标越具体，找借口的余地就越小”可以承接上文, concrete 和 specific 是同义词。
本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了一名邮递员从后视镜里看到一位老人摔倒后，不顾自己的忙碌而调头去救助摔倒的老人的感人故事。
41. C 考查名词。根据首句内容可知，邮递员在节日前比平时要忙碌，但是 Jaylen Lockhart 在后视镜里面看到后面的一位陌生老人摔倒后回去救助老人，因此判断此处是强调“时间”。take the time to do sth.“花费时间做某事”。
42. D 考查名词。根据语境可知，Jaylen Lockhart 在后视镜里面看到一位老人摔倒，这引起了他的注意。catchone's attention“引起某人的注意”。

45. C 考查形容词。根据下文内容“instructing him not to in case he was hurt”以及“in his seventies”判断, Jaylen Lockhart 认为老人摔得很厉害,会有危险。
46. A 考查动词短语。根据上文“someone caught his from the rearview mirror”可知, Jaylen Lockhart 是在后视镜里看到老人摔倒，因此他需要转身才能回去帮助老人。
47. B 考查动词短语。根据上文“he fell down”可知,老人摔倒在地,再结合老人的年龄, Jaylen Lockhart 告诫老人不要起身以防受伤。get up“起身”。
48. C 考查名词。根据故事内容可知，老人在马路上摔倒，马路上纷乱嘈杂。amid the chaos“在混乱中”。
49. A 考查名词。根据后句内容“they turned to social media to find him”可知,老人在社交媒体上找救他的人,因此推断他不知道救命恩人的姓名。
50. D 考查动词。根据语境可知，老人得知了救助他的人后才能够对他表示感谢。locate“找出，查出”。
51. B 考查动词。救人的邮递员 Jaylen Lockhart 理应得到感谢。deserve“应得”。
52. D 考查形容词。邮递员 Jaylen Lockhart 救了老人得到了整个城市的认可，因此他表现出的是英勇的、英雄的行为。
53. A 考查副词。虽然受到了表扬，但是 Jaylen Lockhart 本人却认为这不是什么大事，这仅仅是他被教育如何对待他人的方式。simply“仅仅，只不过”。
54. B 考查动词。根据空后内容“just, you look out for others”可知, Jaylen Lockhart 从小就被教导要关注他人。look out for others指在行动或决策时考虑他人的利益和安全，尤其是在危险或紧急情况下。
55. C 考查动词。Jaylen Lockhart 从小被教育要关注别人，这是一种善意的行为，善良是大家都需要的。
本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了景泰蓝，作为中国的传统工艺，景泰蓝体现了精湛的制作技艺和丰富的文化遗产，经常被作为外交场合的国礼，但是这种工艺需要创新以继续传承下去。
56. a 考查冠词。此处是介绍景泰蓝是雕塑、绘画、瓷器制作和铜锻造的结合体，且是泛指概念，判断填不定冠词，而 unique 又是以辅音音素开头，故填a。
57. Introduced 考查非谓语动词。根据结构判断此处应该用非谓语动词作状语，逻辑主语 Cloisonne 和动词introduce 之间为被动关系,判断填过去分词,句子首字母需大写。故填 Introduced。
58. appeared 考查时态。句子缺少谓语,根据时间状语“in the Yuan Dynasty”判断用一般过去时,主语 Cloisonne和动词 appear之间是主动关系,判断填 appeared。

61. elegant 考查形容词。根据空前的“and”可知,此处和 beautiful 并列,应填 elegance 的形容词形式,故填elegant。
62. as 考查介词。be used as 表示“被用作……”,故填 as。
63. showing 考查非谓语动词。根据结构判断 show应用非谓语形式作状语,逻辑主语 Jingtailan art pieces 和动词show之间是主动关系，判断填现在分词 showing。
64. to survive 考查非谓语动词。struggle to do sth.意为“努力、尽力做某事”。故用所给词的不定式形式。
65. creation 考查名词。根据结构可知，介词 into 后应该用名词作宾语，根据句意判断此处指“景泰蓝的创作”，故填 creation。

Two days passed, and I didn't hear from anything. Then, on the third day, I got a call from a retired schoolteacher. On the fourth day, I got three more calls.
On the fifth day, I had ten people eager to be a part of the Thanksgiving dinner. There were five retired women,three retired men, a construction worker and a nurse’ s assistant. Ten people are enough for the Thanksgiving dinner, soI decided that it was time to take down the note.

Although the atmosphere was a little embarrassing at first, soon everyone was laughing, talking, and having a good time. I glanced around and smiled. Once again, my house was filled with chatter and laughter.

The Earth is one huge, living organism, and we have the privilege of calling it home. We enjoy the beauty of blue skies, the shade of tall trees, and the soft motion of waves.
Being able to breathe clean air is largely a result of the way plants absorb carbon and purify the air on our planet home. The Amazon forest functions as Earth's lungs. But deforestation(毁林) has made it difficult for the jungle to do its job.
Though there are many efforts to plant trees, the remoteness of the jungles makes it difficult. LuigiCani, the world-record-holding skydiver, felt like there was something he could do. After 14,000jumps, Cani was ready to put his skills to good use.
Cani picked a 100-square-kilometer patch of land that needed to be reseeded in the northern part of the rainforest. The planning was detailed. For two months, seeds were collected by hand from nearby native plants. A special box the size of a refrigerator was built, a landing site was identified, and all the permits were secured from the local governments. The box had its own drag parachute(降落伞) to slow it down so Cani could catch up to it as it fell, open it at the right altitude, then safely throw it away and open his parachute.
The result was a cloud of 100 million seeds, bursting from the box like mad insects and settling into a gentle storm of potential trees floating from the sky in a beautiful eruption of life. The seeds fell at exactly where they needed to be. Ultimately, 95% would germinate(发芽) successfully. Like a proud father, Cani charts their growth via satellite images. Some trees will reach 50 meters in height, guarding the Amazon for generations to come.
Cani isn't done with his efforts to care for our earthly home. His next jump will bring skydiving and ocean cleanup together. “Like the seed drop, this next project will have real meaning behind it.”
24. What is a challenge to grow trees in the Amazon
A. The extreme climate. B. The inaccessibility of the jungles.
C. Lack of effective methods. D. People's deforestation.
25. What did Cani do to help
A. He helped to drop seeds. B. He donated parachutes.
C. He made seeds germinate. D. He collected insects.
26. Which word can be used to describe Luigi Cani
A. Determined and proud. B. Charitable and wealthy.

27. What can be the best title for the passage
A. Collecting Millions of Seeds
B. Luigi Cani—a Record-Breaker
C. The Amazon Forest— Earth's Lungs
D. Reforesting the Amazon with Luigi Cani's Efforts

Over the last decade, the majority of businesses have changed to cashless transactions(交易). This shift to a subscription-based economy has been seen as a win-win for businesses and consumers alike,offering predictable income streams for companies and user convenience. However, it seems that the consumers may not be benefiting as much as we think.
At its core, the subscription model is economically advantageous for businesses. It transforms unpredictable purchases into steady income. This predictability is gold for companies, enabling better financial planning, investment, and growth strategies. For startups and established businesses alike, the allure of a subscription model lies in its ability to foster customer loyalty and generate consistent cash flow, elements crucial for survival and expansion in competitive markets.
For consumers, recognizing the negative effects of the subscription model requires a deeper understanding of its impact on spending behavior, particularly in the context of digital transactions. This model influences how consumers perceive and engage with their spending. The transition from traditional one-time purchases to a subscription-based approach capitalizes on the less tangible nature of digital payments, which can often lead to increased consumer spending.
This problem worsens in the context of subscription services, where consumers typically forget their subscriptions due to automated payments. Subscriptions tend to use the psychological principle of“set it and forget it.” This aspect is particularly beneficial for companies as it reduces churn rates(流失率)and increases customer lifetime value while allowing targeted marketing that further enhances profitability. However, this negatively impacts the consumers and it is easy for companies to raise prices without us fully realizing it.
Subscription culture has reshaped consumer behavior and financial habits with a combination of convenience and continuous access. Although these services offer a steady income model for businesses,they pose a risk of unnoticed financial loss, especially for people with budget constraints. The solution lies in users’ carefully managing subscriptions and ensuring that their chosen services provide ongoing value rather than serving as silent financial stress.
28. What does the underlined word“allure” in paragraph 2 probably mean
A. Principle. B. Precondition. C. Attraction. D. Challenge.
29. What disadvantage of cashless transactions is mentioned
A. The possibility of overspending. B. The damage to individual credit.
C. The dependence on online banking. D. The difficulty in withdrawing the payment.
30. What is most likely to be the author's advice
A. Seek legal help when necessary. B. Manage subscriptions with care.
C. Keep track of the businesses closely. D. Cancel automated payment on the phone.
31. What is the author's attitude toward the subscription-based economy
A. Objective. B. Doubtful. C. Optimistic. D. Critical.
D
In an emerging red flag for the digital era, sleep experts have warned us to avoid screen time in bed, sounding the alarm that light emitted from phones and other electronic devices can disrupt(扰乱)our sleep patterns.
Now, researchers have found that light disruption is not only a health concern for humans. A new study led by Professor James Nieh has found that artificial light disrupts the sleep-wake cycles of honey bees and poses a threat to their essential role as pollinators(传粉者).
Honey bees generally prefer to nest in dark environments and play a crucial role as pollinators of wild plants and important crops, providing services that support ecosystem stability and global food security. Without pollination, crops worth tens of millions of dollars would be at risk.
Like us, when bees experience a poor night's sleep and disrupted sleep patterns, problems in behavior and function emerge. Sleep is crucial for the health and fitness of honey bees since they depend on a complicated system of communication known as the“waggle dance” that informs nest mates about the location of food sources in the environment. Bees dance more poorly and therefore do not communicate as well if they do not get enough sleep.
In the experiments, researchers compared groups of bees that sleep in the dark with others that were subjected to continuous artificial light. The results clearly showed that exposure to light for a long time significantly disrupted the sleep pattern of honey bees, leading to impaired(受损的) behaviors.
“Even without analyzing the data you can tell that there was something going on. .. the bees that were under constant light slept less and were more frequently disturbed by other bees compared to those kept in normal darkness. Also, bees under continuous light exhibited a preference for darker areas within their experimental cages,” said Nieh.
“Understanding the factors that affect bee health, such as light pollution, is essential for developing strategies to protect pollinator populations, and this research sheds new light on how such disturbances may be harming pollinators,” said Nieh.
32. What is the researchers' new finding
A. Honey bees are highly active insects.
B. Artificial light is a danger to the ecosystem.

How to Stop Making Excuses and Start Living Instead
Whether it's delaying a difficult conversation or putting off pursuing your biggest dreams, excuses provide us with a temporary shelter from the discomfort we face in our daily lives. 36 By remaining in our comfort zone, we fail to grow and miss out on the good things life has to offer.
37 They make excuses, get stuck in their lives, and repeat the process over and over again.As a former excuse-maker myself, I have learned first hand just what it takes to learn how to stop making excuses for good. In this passage, I will share several practical tips on how to stop making excuses.
As we all know, one of the most common reasons that people make excuses is to avoid responsibility. To stop making excuses, you should shift the focus to your own duty. 38 Accepting full responsibility will definitely be uncomfortable at first. But it's the most important thing you can do to break free from excuse-making.
Besides, you should challenge your limiting beliefs. We all have limiting beliefs that form the foundation of different types of excuses that we make. 39 They show up as you tell yourself that you' ll never succeed or that certain goals are out of reach. Consider replacing the negative thoughts with more positive beliefs.
Setting goals is one of the best ways to overcome excuses. When setting goals, it's important to be realistic about what you want to achieve. Try breaking big dreams into specific and achievable goals. 40
A. In this way, you can easily set a realistic goal.
B. These excuses will leave others a bad impression.
C. There are many examples of limiting beliefs in our lives.
D. In my life, I see a lot of people get stuck in the same cycle.
E. Then you' ll notice the excuses you make begin to lose their power.
F. The more concrete your goals are, the less room there is for excuses.
G. However, they do this at the cost of our long-term sense of satisfaction.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My tears flowed when the commercial came on again. It seemed like the station was playing this commercial every fifteen minutes, and I couldn't bear to see it again. I don't know what the advertisement was trying to sell, but a large, lovely family was gathered around a long table with a bountiful Thanksgiving dinner. Everyone was talking, laughing, and beaming happily at one another.
That was my family once. Those were such happy times, and I never thought about the time when they would be just a memory. For the past three years, there has only been me. This Thanksgiving, Iplanned to open a can of soup and sit alone at my kitchen table again. It would just be me and my memories.
The next morning, I went to the supermarket to pick up a few things. Most of the other shoppers were putting huge turkeys and hams in their carts, preparing for Thanksgiving Day. I stood looking at the cans of soup while people with carts full with all kinds of wonderful things passed me. I sighed.“You can do a little better than this,” I said to myself, looking at the turkey in my hand.
On my way out of the store, I stopped by the bulletin board where people posted things for sale,odd jobs they needed done, babysitter want ads, and so forth. I paused in front of the bulletin board as an idea formed in my mind. Before I could talk myself out of it, I fished around in my purse for the paper and pen. There was a bench nearby, and I sat down to carefully compose my note. It had to sound sincere.
My heart raced as I wrote it:
Are you going to be alone on Thanksgiving Day So am I. But we don't have to be. Let's get together and share a meal, some conversations, and some companionship. Everyone who is interested is encouraged to reply. No restrictions of any kind. Any age, sex, race, religion, etc. If you, like me,don't look forward to being alone on Thanksgiving Day, please call.

1.续写词数应为150个左右；

What if some annoying person show up at the door ” I felt a little frustrated. However, Ididn't go back to the supermarket to tear my note off the board, thinking no one would take it seriously. Two days passed, and I didn't hear from anything. Then, on the third day, I got a call from a retired schoolteacher. On the fourth day, I got three more calls.
On the fifth day, I had ten people eager to be a part of the Thanksgiving dinner. There were five retired women,three retired men, a construction worker and a nurse’ s assistant. Ten people are enough for the Thanksgiving dinner, soI decided that it was time to take down the note. When the Thanksgiving day came, I baked a huge turkey and everyone else contributed what they could. Although the atmosphere was a little embarrassing at first, soon everyone was laughing, talking, and having a good time. I glanced around and smiled. Once again, my house was filled with chatter and laughter.
