[2024·衡水中学期中]While you may be doing everything right, ignoring just one or two steps in the process may keep you from getting a job, especially in this fierce market. Here is a checklist that covers some of the major links in the jobsearch chain.
1.Prepare a good résumé. Make sure it is uptodate and tailored to the types of jobs you are seeking for. __1__ If you cannot afford a career coach, give your résumé to friends or family members to check. Have copies of your résumé printed so that you are ready to hand them out at interviews.
2.Pay attention to your clothes. Check your wardrobe to ensure that you have the appropriate professional dress, including shoes, ready for interview. __2__
3.__3__ Don't isolate yourself from others for days. Network through email messages, phone calls, appointments and meetings, keep you in touch with the outside world and prevent you from becoming depressed. You are more likely to succeed through the people you know via networking. It is important to network with as many people as possible on a facetoface basis.
4.Follow up properly. It is quite common to apply for job and never hear back from the company. If you know someone at the company, take measures, such as following up with a phone call a week or so after you apply. __4__
Finally, recognize that looking for a job is rather difficult. __5__ Staying in touch with family, friends, professional networks and fellow job seekers can help you to maintain a positive attitude and a sense of perspective.
A．Take a look at your interviewing skills.
B．Exploit the opportunities of networking.
C．Have someone else look at your résumé.
D．Even at the best of times, a job hunt is often about rejection.
E．Often surf the Internet for more information.
F．Tidiness in your dress and appearance is necessary.
G．Check whether that person will put in a good word for you.
文章介绍了求职过程中要注意的一些细节问题：要认真准备简历，注意着装，多参加社交活动、建立关系网，还要适时地跟进用人单位的反馈等。
1．C [本段主题为“Prepare a good résumé”，关键词为résumé。C项“Have someone else look at your résumé.”谈到了该信息。设空下一句提到如果没有钱请职业咨询师，就让你的朋友、家人检查一下简历，这是对该空(找人帮忙看看你的简历)的进一步解释，故选C项。]
2．F [该部分阐述了参加面试时要注意穿着，关键词为“clothes, professional, appropriate”。这与F项中的“Tidiness in your dress and appearance...”一致。]
3．B [根据下文中“Network through email messages, phone calls, appointments and meetings, keep you in touch with the outside world...”可知，本段的关键词为“network”，故B项(从关系网中发掘机会)与本段的主题相符合。]
4．G [设空处前一句中提到“If you know someone at the company...”由此推测G项中的“that person”指代的就是“someone”，符合上下文语境。]
5．D [该段说的是求职的艰难(rather difficult)，D项中所说的“...a job hunt is often about rejection.”(求职常常被拒绝)，是对该主题的进一步说明，由此可知选D项。]

How to Sleep Better
If you're having trouble getting good sleep through the night (turning, waking up more than once, for example), this text will tell you what you can do to ensure a peaceful night's sleep.
1．Get on schedule. Changing your sleeping time by more than an hour can severely disturb your sleep quality. __1__ For example, if you normally wake up at 6 a．m. on weekdays to get to work, you might go to bed around 10 p．m., because that's when you start to feel sleepy, and it's also a good time to ensure 8 hours of sleep. If, on the weekend, you sleep until 9 a. m．， you probably won't be able to fall asleep that night until 1 a．m.
2．__2__ Wait at least three hours after dinner before going to sleep. Digestion slows down while asleep, and a full stomach may interrupt sleep. Similarly, you should avoid going to bed with an empty stomach, as a completely empty stomach may equally disturb your sleeping patterns.
3．__3__ Exposure to light during the time when you're supposed to be sleeping can disrupt your body's internal clock. Turn your light off, or use a very dim night light. __4__ They include windows, LED clocks, computer lights and cable boxes.
4．Change your sleeping position.
You may think that it's impossible to control what position you sleep in since you aren't fully aware of what you are doing, but it is possible and it can make a considerable difference. __5__
A．Try to avoid all sources of light.
B．Keep the room as dark as possible.
C．Make note of unusual circumstances.
D．Be mindful of what you eat or drink before bed.
E．Sleep is considered to be adequate only when there is no daytime sleepiness.
F．In other words, sudden change of sleeping time will affect your “biological clock”．
G．So if you wake up in the middle of the night, make an effort to have a comfortable position.
本文讲述如何才能有更好的睡眠质量，作者提到四点建议。
1．F [根据上文的“Get on schedule. Changing your sleeping time by more than an hour can severely disturb your sleep quality.”可知要遵循一定的时间表入睡，而改变睡眠时间可能会影响你的睡眠质量，这与F项意思一致。]
2．D [根据下文的“Wait at least three hours after dinner before going to sleep.”可知，吃饭后至少要过三个小时再去睡觉，故选D项(注意你睡前所吃或喝的东西)。]
3．B [根据下文的“Exposure to light during the time when you're supposed to be sleeping can disrupt your body's internal clock.”可知，光线会扰乱你的生物钟。故选B项(尽可能保持房间黑暗)。]
4．A [根据上一句“Turn your light off, or use a very dim night light.”可知，要关闭所有的灯或使用光线暗的夜灯，故选A项(努力避开所有的光源)。下文的“windows, LED clocks, computer lights”等都是光源。]
5．G [根据上一句“You may think that it's impossible to control what position you sleep in since you aren't fully aware of what you are doing, but it is possible and it can make a considerable difference.”可知，控制你的睡姿是有可能的，并且会产生不错的效果，故选G项(所以如果你半夜醒来，尝试着换个舒服点的姿势)。]
[长难句分析]'You may think that it's impossible to control what position you sleep in since you aren't fully aware of what you are doing, but it is possible and it can make a considerable difference.你可能会认为控制睡觉的姿势是不可能的，因为(在睡眠中)不能完全清楚你的姿势，但是这是可能的，并且会产生很大的差别。
句式分析：此处为but连接的并列句。第一个分句中，that引导宾语从句，宾语从句中，it为形式主语，真正的主语是后面的动词不定式(to control...); since引导原因状语从句；还有两个由what引导的宾语从句，一个作control的宾语，另一个作介词of的宾语。

[2024·衡水中学期末]Maybe you're feeling down because of the financial crisis. Maybe you're feeling overwhelmed (难以承受的) by holiday tasks. Or maybe you're just having an unpleasant day. If so, you can make yourself happier—right now.
1.Boost your energy.
Stand up and pace while you talk on the phone or, even better, take a tenminute walk outside. __1__ The activity and sunlight are good for your focus, your mood, and the retention of information. Plus, because of “emotional infection”， if you act energeticly, you'll help the people around you feel energetic, too.
2.__2__
Take ten minutes to think about all the things in your life that are going right, about all the things that other people do to help you, about all the things that you're thankful for. In the disorder of everyday life, it's very easy to focus on the negative and to lose sight of what really matters.
3.Reach out to friends.
__3__ Having warm, close bonds with other people is the KEY to happiness, so take time to stay in touch.
Somewhat surprisingly, socializing boosts the moods not only of extroverts (外向者), but also of introverts (内向者)．
4.Create a calmer environment.
Clear some physical and mental space around yourself by sorting papers, pitching junk, cleaning a closet, answering a few emails, filing, or even just making your piles neater. A large stack of little tasks can feel overwhelming, but often just a few minutes of work can make a sizeable decrease. __4__ For example: never postpone any task that can be completed in less than one minute.
5.Rid yourself of a troublesome task.
Answer a difficult email, do a mission you've been putting off, or call to make that dentist's appointment and finish the regular check which has been missed for several times.__5__
A．Count your blessings.
B．Think about your future.
C．Go to the doctor's for some advice.
D．Try to get in the habit of using the “one minute rule”．
E．Make a lunch date or send an email to a friend you haven't seen in a while.
F．Research shows that when people move faster, their metabolism (新陈代谢) speeds up.
G．Crossing a boring chore off your todo list will give you a big rush of energy and relief.
本文提出五点建议，能够使你在紧张的压力之下快乐起来。
1．F [根据上文的“Stand up and pace while you talk on the phone or, even better, take a tenminute walk outside.”(打电话时站起来走动走动，能到户外散步十分钟则更好。)可知选F项(研究表明，当人快速活动时，新陈代谢会加快)。]
2．A [该段说的是不要忘了感恩发生在自己身上的幸运的事情，由此可知A项(常怀感恩)为本段的主题句。]
3．E [本段的标题是“Reach out to friends.”故E项(如果有段日子没见某个朋友，不妨约个饭局或发封电子邮件)与标题相符。]
4．D [根据上文提到“A large stack of little tasks can feel overwhelming, but often just a few minutes of work can make a sizeable decrease.”可知，很多繁琐的事情加在一起会让人没了头绪，喘不过气。但是，常常只需几分钟，就可能解决掉很大一部分。故选D项(要努力养成利用“一分钟规则”的习惯)。空后的“in less one minute”也是提示。]
5．G [上文提到的“Answer a difficult email, do a mission you've been putting off, or call to make that dentist's appointment and finish the regular check which has been missed for several times.”都是说处理掉令人头疼的事情。故选G项(解决掉很多烦心事中的一件会让你突然浑身是劲，心情轻松)。]
[长难句分析]'Take ten minutes to think about all the things in your life that are going right, about all the things that other people do to help you, about all the things that you're thankful for.花十分钟想想生活中所有顺当的事，想想别人对你的所有帮助，想想所有让你心怀感恩的事情。
句式分析：这是一个祈使句，三个about与think构成固定短语，每个about...结构之后都包含一个that引导的定语从句。

[2024·冀州中学猜题]Doctors say anger can be an extremely damaging emotion, unless you learn how to deal with it. They warn that anger can lead to
heart
disease,
stomach problems,
headaches,
emotional problems and possibly cancer.
__1__ Some people express anger openly in a calm and reasonable way. Others burst with anger and scream and yell. But still other people keep their anger inside. They cannot or will not express it. This is called repressing anger.
For years many doctors thought that repressing anger was more dangerous to a person's health than expressing it. They said that when a person is angry, the brain releases some hormones (荷尔蒙). They speed the heart rate, raise blood pressure, or sugar into the blood, etc. __2__
Some doctors say that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous.
They believe that those who express anger violently may be more likely to develop heart disease, and they believe that those who keep anger inside may face a greater danger of high blood pressure.
__3__ They say the first step is to admit that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger, then decide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about. If it is, they say, “__4__ Wait until your anger has cooled down and you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably.” Doctors say that a good way to deal with anger is to find humor in the situation that has made you angry. __5__

1．F [根据下文中的“Some...Others...”可知，本段是说愤怒是一种常见的情绪，不同的人有不同的表达方式。故选F项。]

3．C [根据下文内容可知，本段讲的都是医生建议的处理愤怒情绪的方法，故选C项。]
4．E [根据下文“Wait until your anger has cooled down...”可知，此处建议不要在生气的时候表达愤怒的情绪，先使自己冷静下来。故E项符合语境。]

[2024·武邑中学仿真]The act of giving gifts is a gesture of friendship, love, celebration and thanks. With a little planning, your gifts will be remembered for years.
__1__ Put a reminder in your diary one or two weeks before the occasion so that you can start doing your shopping. If your receivers live very far away and you need to mail the gift, then advanced planning is even more important. It will make sure that your gift gets to them on time.
