With the college entrance examination approaches, many of my classmates suffer from much pressure. Some of them are burying in endless homework day and night, which robs them of happiness and do them harm physically and mentally.
Although pressure, to some extent, can provide motivation, but too much pressure has a seriously negative effect. Therefore, we should learn to relieve pressure. First, we should have a right evaluation of us in order to make use advantages and avoid disadvantages. Second, we’d better set aside some times for fun such as listening to music. Sometimes even cry is an efficient way to release stresses. Besides, we can turn to our teachers, friends and parents, that will give us guidance and comfort.
阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。将答案填写在答题卡的相应位置。
Climate change is bad news for the world’s coral reefs. As global temperatures increase, the world’s glaciers melt, 1. (cause) sea levels and ocean temperatures to rise. These conditions have led to coral bleaching(白化) events, 2. the coral turns white and slowly dies, unable to survive in its changing environment.
Global sea levels 3.(expect) to rise about 1.5 feet by 2100, meaning coral reefs will be deeper underwater than they were 4.(previous)in. The deeper the coral, the less light it receives, and the less 5.(able) it has to make food. This has potential to change the entire ecosystems of reefs and the marine life they support.
But a new study from a team of 6.(researcher) at the National University of Singapore (NUS) provides a ray of hope. They studied nearly 3,000 corals from 124 species at two reefs off 7. coast of Singapore: Pulau Hantu and Raffles Lighthouse. The water where these reefs live is 8.(cloud), murky and thick with sediment(沉淀物).
The light reaches down about 26 feet, yet there are corals growing well 9. that level and below. They’ve adapted to surviving under the changing conditions. Researchers say it’s likely that these corals will survive sea-level rise, according to the findings 10.(publish) in the journal Marine Environmental Research.

How to Break the Anxiety Cycle
People who suffer from anxiety tend to be stuck in an ongoing loop of avoidance. It’s the classic dynamic of anxiety: 1., our symptoms tend to increase, and in turn this drives the anxiety up and makes the things we’re afraid of scarier. Here are some techniques on how to slowly overcome this mental health challenge. 2.. Words have power. For example, saying “I am panicked about going to this party tonight” will put you in a more negative state of mind compared to saying “I’d prefer if I didn’t have to go to this party.” Start by putting your words to the positive and to a point where you still feel it resonates(共鸣).
Let go of perfectionism. People with social anxiety feel as if they are walking on a social tightrope. 3.. We have unrealistic high standards where we think we must be cool, positive, and witty while carrying the entire conversation—it’s too much. And keep in mind that you are not expected to be someone you’re not in order to get people to like you.
Make small gestures. Instead of “jumping off a cliff” and walking straight into a situation that makes you anxious, start becoming more expressive in situations that you feel are less threatening.
4., say good morning to a neighbor you rarely speak with, or tell your hairstylist the exact look you’ re going for instead of agreeing with their suggestion.
Shift your awareness. Our attention is like a spotlight and we choose where to point it. Those with social anxiety tend to point that spotlight inward and state the commentary of our inner critic.
5..
A.Choose your words carefully
B.Pay attention to your health condition
C.For example, ask a stranger for directions
D.When we avoid the things we’re afraid of
E.If the things reduce feelings of social anxiety
F.It’s this idea that we need to perform perfectly
G.Focus on what’s happening around you, not inside you
The study, published today in the journal PLOS Biology shows that the average body size and number of sharks and other marine predators—vital to maintaining healthy ocean ecosystems—fell significantly near cities with more than 10,000 people and associated fishing boats.
The minimum distance from people and fishing which had no measurable effect was 1,250 kilometers. This is far further than previous studies have suggested and probably reflects the increased distances fishing boats can now travel. As a result, sharks were only observed at 12% of sites monitored.
Lead author Dr. Tom Letessier said, ''Human activity is now the biggest influence on sharks' distribution. Just 13% of the world's oceans can be considered 'wilderness' but sharks and other predators are much more common and significantly larger at distances greater than 1,250 kilometers from people. This suggests that large marine predators are generally unable to thrive near to people and is another clear example of the impact of human overuse on our seas. ''
To collect their data, the team analyzed videos taken at 1,041 sites across the Indian and Pacific Oceans, selected to test the biggest possible range of conditions and habitats. Sharks and other free-swimming predators were studied using cameras attached cannisters(炮筒)filled with bait. In total, the team recorded 23,200 animals representing 109 species. These included 841 individual sharks from 19 different species.
Dr. Letessier added, ''Our study also found that shallower water environment, of depths less than 500 meters, were vital for marine predator diversity. We therefore need to identify sites that are both shallow and remote and protect them. However, there are still numerous shallow hot spots near human markets that are not appropriately protected, and this must change. ''
1.According to the study, what happened to sharks and other marine predators?
A.They became less important for keeping healthy ocean ecosystems.
B.They only lived near cities with 10,000 people.
C.They loved swimming after fishing boats.
D.Their average body size and number decreased sharply.
2.Which of the following statements may Dr. Tom Letessier agree with?
A.Large marine predators can grow well near people.
B.People shouldn't disturb the sea and sea animals.
C.Sharks’ distribution was mainly affected by human activity.
D.Other ecological factors have no impact on sharks’ distribution.
3.What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 4?
A.Introduce a new topic for readers.
B.Introduce the study means used by the team.
C.Summarize the previous paragraphs.
D.Collect data about sharks and other predators.
4.What can we infer about the perfect environment for marine predator diversity?
A.It should be deeper than 500 meters.
B.It should be spots that are hot enough.
C.It should be shallower and away from humans.
D.It should be spots changed from human markets.
