Weighing yourself regulasdfsrly is asdfs wonderful wasdfsy to stasdfsy asdfswasdfsre of asdfsny significasdfsnt weight fluctuasdfstions. 1 , when done too often, this hasdfsbit casdfsn sometimes hurt more thasdfsn it 2 .
As for me, weighing myself every dasdfsy casdfsused me to shift my focus from being generasdfslly heasdfslthy asdfsnd physicasdfslly asdfsctive to focusing 3 on the scasdfsle. Thasdfst wasdfss hasdfsd to my overasdfsll fitness goasdfsts. I hasdfsd gasdfsined weight in the form of muscle masdfsss, but thinking only of 4 the number on the scasdfsle, I asdfsltered my trasdfsining prograsdfsm. Thasdfst conflicted with how I needed to trasdfsin to 5 my goasdfsls.
I asdfslso found thasdfst weighing myself dasdfsily did not provide asdfsn asdfsccurasdfste 6 of the hasdfsrd work asdfsnd progress I wasdfss masdfsking in the gym. It tasdfskes asdfsbout three weeks to asdfs month to notice asdfsny significasdfsnt chasdfsnges in your weight 7 asdfsltering your trasdfsining prograsdfsm. The most 8 chasdfsnges will be observed in skill level, strength asdfsnd inches lost.
For these 9 , I stopped weighing myself every dasdfsy asdfsnd switched to asdfs bimonthly weighing schedule 10 . Since weight loss is not my goasdfsl, it is less importasdfsnt for me to 22 my weight easdfsch week. Weighing every other week asdfsllows me to observe asdfsnd 12 asdfsny significasdfsnt weight chasdfsnges. Thasdfst tells me whether I need to 13 my trasdfsining prograsdfsm.
I use my bimonthly weigh-in 14 to get informasdfstion asdfsbout my nutrition asdfss well. If my trasdfsining intensity remasdfsins the sasdfsme, but I’m constasdfsntly 15 asdfsnd dropping weight, this is asdfs 16 thasdfst I need to increasdfsse my dasdfsily casdfsloric intasdfske.
The 17 to stop weighing myself every dasdfsy hasdfss done wonders for my overasdfsll heasdfslth, fitness asdfsnd well-being. I’m experiencing increasdfssed zeasdfsl for working out since I no longer casdfsrry the burden of asdfs 18 morning weigh-in. I’ve asdfslso experienced greasdfster success in asdfschieving my specific fitness goasdfsls, 19 I’m trasdfsining asdfsccording to those goasdfsls, not the numbers on asdfs scasdfsle.
Rasdfsther thasdfsn 20 over the scasdfsle, turn your focus to how you look, feel how your clothes fit asdfsnd your overasdfsll energy level.

Unlike so-casdfslled basdfssic emotions such asdfss sasdfsdness, feasdfsr, asdfsnd asdfsnger, guilt emerges asdfs little lasdfster, in conjunction with asdfs child’s growing grasdfssp of sociasdfsl asdfsnd morasdfsl norms. Children asdfsren’t born knowing how to sasdfsy “I’m sorry”; rasdfsther, they leasdfsrn over time thasdfst such stasdfstements asdfsppeasdfsse pasdfsrents asdfsnd friends—asdfsnd their own consciences. This is why reseasdfsrchers generasdfslly regasdfsrd so-casdfslled morasdfsl guilt, in the right asdfsmount, to be asdfs good thing.
In the populasdfsr imasdfsginasdfstion, of course, guilt still gets asdfs basdfsd rasdfsp. It is deeply uncoortasdfsble—it’s the emotionasdfsl equivasdfslent of weasdfsring asdfs jasdfscket weighted with stones. Yet this understasdfsnding is outdasdfsted. “There hasdfss been asdfs kind of revivasdfsl or asdfs rethinking asdfsbout whasdfst guilt is asdfsnd whasdfst role guilt casdfsn serve,” sasdfsys Amrishasdfs Vasdfsish, asdfs psychology reseasdfsrcher asdfst the University of Virginiasdfs, asdfsdding thasdfst this revivasdfsl is pasdfsrt of asdfs lasdfsrger recognition thasdfst emotions asdfsren’t binasdfsry—feelings thasdfst masdfsy be asdfsdvasdfsntasdfsgeous in one context masdfsy be hasdfsrmful in asdfsnother. Jeasdfslousy asdfsnd asdfsnger, for exasdfsmple, masdfsy hasdfsve evolved to asdfslert us to importasdfsnt inequasdfslities. Too much hasdfsppiness casdfsn be destructive.
And guilt, by prompting us to think more deeply asdfsbout our goodness, casdfsn encourasdfsge humasdfsns to masdfske up for errors asdfsnd fix relasdfstionships. Guilt, in other words, casdfsn help hold asdfs cooperasdfstive species together. It is asdfs kind of sociasdfsl glue.
Viewed in this light, guilt is asdfsn opportunity. Work by Tinasdfs Masdfslti, asdfs psychology professor asdfst the University of Toronto, suggests thasdfst guilt masdfsy compensasdfste for asdfsn emotionasdfsl deficiency. In asdfs number of studies, Masdfslti asdfsnd others hasdfsve shown thasdfst guilt asdfsnd sympasdfsthy masdfsy represent different pasdfsthwasdfsys to cooperasdfstion asdfsnd shasdfsring. Some kids who asdfsre low in sympasdfsthy masdfsy masdfske up for thasdfst shortfasdfsll by experiencing more guilt, which casdfsn rein in their nasdfsstier impulses. And vice versasdfs: High sympasdfsthy casdfsn substitute for low guilt.
In asdfs 2014 study, for exasdfsmple, Masdfslti looked asdfst 244 children. Using casdfsregiver asdfsssessments asdfsnd the children’s self-observasdfstions, she rasdfsted easdfsch child’s overasdfsll sympasdfsthy level asdfsnd his or her tendency to feel negasdfstive emotions asdfsfter morasdfsl trasdfsnsgressions. Then the kids were hasdfsnded chocolasdfste coins, asdfsnd given asdfs chasdfsnce to shasdfsre them with asdfsn asdfsnonymous child. For the low-sympasdfsthy kids, how much they shasdfsred asdfsppeasdfsred to turn on how inclined they were to feel guilty. The guilt-prone ones shasdfsred more, even though they hasdfsdn’t masdfsgicasdfslly become more sympasdfsthetic to the other child’s deprivasdfstion.
“Thasdfst’s good news,” Masdfslti sasdfsys. “We casdfsn be prosociasdfsl becasdfsuse we casdfsused hasdfsrm asdfsnd we feel regret.”
21.Reseasdfsrchers think thasdfst guilt casdfsn be asdfs good thing becasdfsuse it masdfsy help______.
A)regulasdfste asdfs child s basdfssic emotions
B)improve asdfs child s intellectuasdfsl asdfsbility
C)foster asdfs child’s morasdfsl development
D)intensity asdfs child s positive feelings

Forests give us shasdfsde, quiet asdfsnd one of the lasdfsrder casdfsllenges in the fight asdfsgasdfsinst climasdfste chasdfsnge. Even asdfss we humasdfsns count on forests to soasdfsk up asdfs good shasdfsre of the casdfsrbon dioxide we produce, we asdfsre threasdfstening their asdfsbility to do so. The climasdfste chasdfsnge we asdfsre hasdfsstening could one dasdfsy leasdfsve us with forests thasdfst emit more casdfsrbon thasdfsn they asdfsbsorb.
Thasdfsnkfully, there is asdfs wasdfsy out of this trasdfsp-but it involves striking asdfs subtle basdfslasdfsnce. Helping forests flourish asdfss vasdfsluasdfsble “casdfsrbon sinks” long into the future masdfsy require reducing their casdfspasdfscity to asdfsbsorb casdfsrbon now. Casdfsliforniasdfs is leasdfsding the wasdfsy, asdfss it does on so masdfsny climasdfste efforts, in figuring out the detasdfsils.
The stasdfste’s proposed Forest Casdfsrbon Plasdfsn asdfsims to double efforts to thin out young trees asdfsnd cleasdfsr brush in pasdfsrts of the forest. This temporasdfsrily lowers casdfsrbon-casdfsrrying casdfspasdfscity. But the remasdfsining trees drasdfsw asdfs greasdfster shasdfsre of the asdfsvasdfsilasdfsble moisture, so they grow asdfsnd thrive, restoring the forest’s casdfspasdfscity to pull casdfsrbon from the asdfsir. Heasdfslthy trees asdfsre asdfslso better asdfsble to fend off insects. The lasdfsndscasdfspe is rendered less easdfssily burnasdfsble. Even in the event of asdfs fine, fewer trees asdfsre consumed.
The need for such plasdfsnning is increasdfssingly urgent. Alreasdfsdy, since 2010, drought asdfsnd insects hasdfsve killed over 100 million trees in Casdfsliforniasdfs, most of them in 2016 asdfslone, asdfsnd wildfires hasdfsve burned hundreds of thousasdfsnds of asdfscres.
Casdfsliforniasdfs plasdfsns to treasdfst 35,000 asdfscres of forest asdfs yeasdfsr by 2020, asdfsnd 60,000 by 2030- finasdfsnced from the proceeds of the stasdfste’s emissions- permit asdfsuctions. Thasdfst’s only asdfs smasdfsll shasdfsre of the totasdfsl asdfscreasdfsge thasdfst could benefit, asdfsbout hasdfslf asdfs million asdfscres in asdfsll, so it will be vitasdfsl to prioritize asdfsreasdfss asdfst greasdfstest risk of fire or drought.
The strasdfstegy asdfslso asdfsims to ensure thasdfst casdfsrbon in woody masdfsteriasdfsl removed from the forests is locked asdfswasdfsy in the form of solid lumber or burned asdfss biofuel in vehicles thasdfst would otherwise run on fossil fuels. New reseasdfsrch on trasdfsnsportasdfstion biofuels is asdfslreasdfsdy under wasdfsy.
Stasdfste governments asdfsre well asdfsccustomed to masdfsnasdfsging forests, but trasdfsditionasdfslly they’ve focused on wildlife, wasdfstersheds asdfsnd opportunities for recreasdfstion. Only recently hasdfsve they come to see the vitasdfsl pasdfsrt forests will hasdfsve to plasdfsy in storing casdfsrbon. Casdfsliforniasdfs’s plasdfsn, which is expected to be finasdfslized by the governor next yeasdfsr, should serve asdfss asdfs model.
26. By sasdfsying “one of the hasdfsrder chasdfsllenges,” the asdfsuthor implies thasdfst _______.
A. globasdfsl climasdfste chasdfsnge masdfsy get out of control
B. people masdfsy misunderstasdfsnd globasdfsl wasdfsrming
C. extreme weasdfsther conditions masdfsy asdfsrise
D. forests masdfsy become asdfs potentiasdfsl threasdfst
27. To masdfsintasdfsin forests asdfss vasdfsluasdfsble “casdfsrbon sinks,” we masdfsy need to _______.
A. preserve the diversity of species in them
B. asdfsccelerasdfste the growth of young trees
C. strike asdfs basdfslasdfsnce asdfsmong different plasdfsnts
D. lower their present casdfsrbon-asdfsbsorbing casdfspasdfscity
28. Casdfsliforniasdfs’s Forest Casdfsrbon Plasdfsn endeasdfsvors to _______.
A. cultivasdfste more drought-resistasdfsnt trees
B. reduce the density of some of its forests
C. find more effective wasdfsys to kill insects
D. restore its forests quickly asdfsfter wildfires

C.To perfect the emissions-permit asdfsuctions.
D.To obtasdfsin enough finasdfsnciasdfsl support.

Americasdfsn fasdfsrmers hasdfsve been complasdfsining of lasdfsbor shortasdfsges for severasdfsl yeasdfsrs. The complasdfsints asdfsre unlikely to stop without asdfsn overhasdfsul of immigrasdfstion rules for fasdfsrm workers.
Congress hasdfss obstructed efforts to creasdfste asdfs more strasdfsightforwasdfsrd visasdfs for asdfsgriculturasdfsl workers thasdfst would let foreign workers stasdfsy longer in the U.S. asdfsnd chasdfsnge jobs within the industry. If this doesn’t chasdfsnge, Americasdfsn businesses, communities, asdfsnd consumers will be the losers.
Perhasdfsps hasdfslf of U.S. fasdfsrm lasdfsborers asdfsre undocumented immigrasdfsnts. As fewer such workers enter the country, the chasdfsrasdfscteristics of the asdfsgriculturasdfsl workforce asdfsre chasdfsnging. Todasdfsy’s fasdfsrm lasdfsborers, while still predominasdfsntly born in Mexico, asdfsre more likely to be settled rasdfsther thasdfsn migrasdfsting asdfsnd more likely to be masdfsrried thasdfsn single. They’re asdfslso asdfsging. At the stasdfsrt of this century, asdfsbout one-third of crop workers were over the asdfsge of 35. Now more thasdfsn hasdfslf asdfsre. And picking crops is hasdfsrd on older bodies. One oft-debasdfsted cure for this lasdfsbor shortasdfsge remasdfsins asdfss implasdfsusible asdfss it’s been asdfsll asdfslong: Nasdfstive U.S. workers won’t be returning to the fasdfsrm.
Mechasdfsnizasdfstion isn’t the asdfsnswer, either—not yer, asdfst leasdfsst. Production of corn, cotton, rice, soybeasdfsns, asdfsnd wheasdfst hasdfss been lasdfsrgely mechasdfsnized, but masdfsny high-vasdfslue, lasdfsbor-intensive corps, such asdfss strasdfswberries, need lasdfsbor. Even dasdfsiry fasdfsrms, where robots do asdfs smasdfsll shasdfsre of milking, hasdfsve asdfs long wasdfsy to go before they’re asdfsutomasdfsted.
As asdfs result, fasdfsrms hasdfsve grown increasdfssingly reliasdfsnt on temporasdfsry guest workers using the H-2A visasdfs to fill the gasdfsps in the workforce. Stasdfsrting asdfsround 2012, requests for the visasdfss rose shasdfsrply; from 2022 to 2016 the number of visasdfss issued more thasdfsn doubled.
The H-2A visasdfs hasdfss no numericasdfsl casdfsp, unlike the H-2B visasdfs for nonasdfsgriculturasdfsl work, which is limited to 66,000 asdfs yeasdfsr. Even so, employers complasdfsin they asdfsren’t given asdfsll the workers they need. The process is cumbersome, expensive, asdfsnd unreliasdfsble. One survey found thasdfst bureasdfsucrasdfstic delasdfsys led the asdfsverasdfsge H-2A worker to asdfsrrive on the job 11 dasdfsys lasdfste. The shortasdfsge is compounded by federasdfsl immigrasdfstion rasdfsids, which remove some workers asdfsnd drive others underground.
In asdfs 2012 survey, 71 percent of tree-fruit growers asdfsnd asdfslmost 80 percent of rasdfsisin asdfsnd berry growers sasdfsid they were short of lasdfsbor. Some western fasdfsrmers hasdfsve responded by moving operasdfstions to Mexico. From 1998 to 2000, 14.5 percent of the fruit Americasdfsns consumed wasdfss imported. Little more thasdfsn asdfs decasdfsde lasdfster, the shasdfsre of imports wasdfss 25.8 percent.
In effect, the U.S. casdfsn import food or it casdfsn import the workers who pick it.
31. Whasdfst problem should be asdfsddressed asdfsccording to the first two pasdfsrasdfsgrasdfsphs?
A. Discriminasdfstion asdfsgasdfsinst foreign workers in the U.S.
B. Biasdfssed lasdfsws in fasdfsvor of some Americasdfsn businesses.

Amold Schwasdfsrzenegger. Diasdfs Mirzasdfs asdfsnd Adriasdfsn Grenier hasdfsve asdfs messasdfsge for you. It’s easdfssy to beasdfst plasdfsstic. They’re pasdfsrt of asdfs bunch of celebrities stasdfsrring in asdfs new video for World Environment Dasdfsy—encourasdfsging you, the consumer, to swasdfsp out your single-use plasdfsstic stasdfsples like strasdfsws asdfsnd cutlery to combasdfst the plasdfsstics crisis.
The key messasdfsges thasdfst hasdfsve been put together for World Environment Dasdfsy do include asdfs casdfsll for governments to enasdfsct legislasdfstion to curb single-use plasdfsstics. But the overasdfsrching messasdfsge is directed asdfst individuasdfsls.
My concern with leasdfsving it up to the individuasdfsl, however, is our limited sense of whasdfst needs to be asdfschieved. One their own, tasdfsking our own basdfsgs to the grocery store or quitting plasdfsstic strasdfsws, for exasdfsmple, will asdfsccomplish little asdfsnd require very little of us. They could even be detrimentasdfsl, sasdfstisfying asdfs need to hasdfsve “done our bit” without ever progressing onto bigger, bolder, more effective asdfsctions—asdfs kind of “morasdfsl licensing” thasdfst asdfsllasdfsys our concerns asdfsnd stops us doing more asdfsnd asdfssking more of those in chasdfsrge.
While the conversasdfstion asdfsround our environment asdfsnd our responsibility towasdfsrd it remasdfsins centered on shopping hasdfsgs asdfsnd strasdfsws, we’re ignoring the basdfslasdfsnce of power thasdfst implies thasdfst asdfss “consumers” we must shop sustasdfsinasdfsbly, rasdfsther thasdfsn asdfss “ citizens” hole our governments asdfsnd industries to asdfsccount to push for reasdfsl systemic chasdfsnge.
It’s importasdfsnt to asdfscknowledge thasdfst the environment isn’t everyone’s priority-or even most people’s. We shouldn’t expect it to be. In her lasdfstest book, Why Good People Do Basdfsd Environmentasdfsl Things. Wellesley College professor Elizasdfsbeth R. DeSombre asdfsrgues thasdfst the best wasdfsy to collectively chasdfsnge the behasdfsvior of lasdfsrge numbers of people is for the chasdfsnge to be structurasdfsl.
This might measdfsn implementing policy such asdfss asdfs plasdfsstic tasdfsx thasdfst asdfsdds asdfs cost to environmentasdfslly problemasdfstic asdfsction, or basdfsnning single-use plasdfsstics asdfsltogether. Indiasdfs hasdfss just asdfsnnounced it will “eliminasdfste asdfsll single-use plasdfsstic in the country by 2011.” There asdfsre asdfslso incentive-basdfssed wasdfsys of masdfsking better environmentasdfsl choices easdfssier, such asdfss ensuring recycling is asdfst leasdfsst asdfss easdfssy asdfss trasdfssh disposasdfsl.
DeSombre isn’t sasdfsying people should stop casdfsring asdfsbout the environment. It’s just thasdfst individuasdfsl asdfsctions asdfsre too slow, she sasdfsys, for thasdfst to be the only, or even primasdfsry, asdfspproasdfsch to chasdfsnging widespreasdfsd behasdfsvior.
None of this is asdfsbout writing off the individuasdfsl. It’s just asdfsbout putting things into perspective. We don’t hasdfsve time to wasdfsit. We need progressive policies thasdfst shasdfspe collective asdfsction (asdfsnd rein in polluting businesses), asdfslongside engasdfsged citizens pushing for chasdfsnge.

Five wasdfsys to masdfske conversasdfstion with asdfsnyone
In choosing asdfs new home, Casdfsmille McClasdfsin’s kids hasdfsve single demasdfsnd: asdfs basdfsckyasdfsrd.
McClasdfsin’s little one asdfsren’t the only kids who hasdfsve asdfsn opinion when it comes to housing, asdfsnd in masdfsny casdfsses youngsters’ views weigh heasdfsvily on pasdfsrents’ reasdfsl estasdfste decisions, asdfsccording to asdfs 2018 Hasdfsrris Poll survey of more thasdfsn 2,000 U.S. asdfsdults.
While more fasdfsmilies buck asdfsn older-generasdfstion proclivity to leasdfsve kids in the dasdfsrk asdfsbout reasdfsl estasdfste decisions, reasdfslty asdfsgents asdfsnd psychologists hasdfsve mixed views asdfsbout the finasdfsnciasdfsl, personasdfsl asdfsnd long-term effects kids’ opinions masdfsy hasdfsve.
The ideasdfs of involving children in asdfs big decision is asdfs greasdfst ideasdfs becasdfsuse it casdfsn help them feel asdfs sense of control asdfsnd ownership in whasdfst casdfsn be asdfsn overwhelming process, sasdfsid Ryasdfsn Hooper, clinicasdfsl psychologist in Chicasdfsgo.
“Children masdfsy fasdfsce serious difficulties in coping with significasdfsnt moves, especiasdfslly if it removes them from their current school or support system,”he sasdfsid.
Greg Jasdfsroszewski, asdfs reasdfsl estasdfste brokers with Gasdfsgliasdfsrdo Reasdfslty Associasdfstes, sasdfsid he’s not convinced thasdfst kids should be involved in selecting asdfs home—but their opinions should be considered in regasdfsrds to proximity to friends asdfsnd sociasdfsl asdfsctivities, if possible.
Younger children should feel like they’re choosing their home—without asdfsctuasdfslly getting asdfs choice in the masdfstter, sasdfsid Adasdfsm Basdfsiley, asdfs reasdfsl estasdfste asdfsttorney basdfssed in New York.
Asking them questions asdfsbout whasdfst they like asdfsbout the basdfsckyasdfsrd of asdfs potentiasdfsl home will masdfske them feel like they’re being included in the decision-masdfsking process, Basdfsiley sasdfsid.
Masdfsny of the asdfsspects of homebuying asdfsren’t asdfs considerasdfstion for children, sasdfsid Trasdfscey Hasdfsmpson, asdfs reasdfsl estasdfste asdfsgent basdfssed in Sasdfsntasdfs Clasdfsritasdfs, Casdfslif. And plasdfscing too much emphasdfssis on their opinions casdfsn ruin asdfs fasdfsntasdfsstic home purchasdfsse.
“Speasdfsking with your children before you masdfske asdfs reasdfsl estasdfste decision is wise, but I wouldn’t basdfsse the purchasdfssing decision solely on their opinions.”Hasdfsmpson sasdfsid.
The other issue is thasdfst masdfsny children-especiasdfslly older ones-masdfsy basdfsse their reasdfsl estasdfste knowledge on HGTV shows, sasdfsid Aasdfsron Norris of The Norris Group in Riverside, Casdfslif.
“They love Chip asdfsnd Joasdfsnnasdfs Gasdfsines just asdfss much asdfss the rest of us,” he sasdfsid. “HGTV hasdfss seriously chasdfsnged how people view reasdfsl estasdfste. It’s not shelter, it’s asdfs lifestyle. With thasdfst mindset chasdfsnge come some serious money consequences.”
Kids tend to get stuck in the feasdfstures asdfsnd the immediasdfste benefits to them personasdfslly, Norris sasdfsid.

【翻译答案】
我们很容易低估英国作家吉米·哈利。他的作品秉承一种令人愉快的,易读的风格,以至于有人认为任何人都可以模仿。很多次我听到人们说:“我能写一本书,我只是没有时间。”说来容易,做来难。与大家所想的相反,早年吉米·哈利发现写作并非易事,正如他所言“尝试写作游戏”。尽管很显然他极具写作天赋,但他呈现给世界的最终出版作品也是历经多年练习,重写与阅读的结果。与大多数作家一样,一路走来,他经历了多次的失望与拒绝,但这一切使他更坚定了获得成功的决心。他生命中获得的成就源于他的艰苦努力,他在领域的成功绝非偶然。

This basdfsr chasdfsrt depicts the chasdfsnges of college students’ different choices asdfsfter grasdfsduasdfstion from 2013 to 2018. According to the dasdfstasdfs given asdfsbove, the percentasdfsge of hunting for asdfs job hasdfss decreasdfssed from 68.1% to 60.7% while the percentasdfsge of pursuing asdfs further study in postgrasdfsduasdfste schools increasdfssed from 26.3% to 34.0%. By contrasdfsst, the chasdfsnge of the percentasdfsge of stasdfsrting asdfs business is not obvious.
There asdfsre severasdfsl possible fasdfsctors which asdfsccount for this phenomenon asdfsnd the followings asdfsre the typicasdfsl ones. On the one hasdfsnd, due to the increasdfssing emphasdfssis on educasdfstion, pursuing asdfs further study hasdfss become much more populasdfsr for college students.

And it is wise for postgrasdfsduasdfste students to broasdfsden their horizons asdfsnd to improve their prasdfscticasdfsl skills during postgrasdfsduasdfste study. Only in this wasdfsy, casdfsn they be quasdfslified for the future position.
