Saying no can be unttling or unnatural since society often teaches us that a “no” can be

considered as rude or innsitive. Many of us have been conditioned to say yes just to avoid

confrontation and conflict.

But learning how to say no more frequently can yield many benefits including improving

your general mental health, establishing clear boundaries, encouraging lf-care and enhancing

your lf-worth and confidence.

According to Psychology Today, successfully using more healthy answers of “no” will mean

finding a way that feels authentic for you. They suggest adopting the “sandwich method”, which

means sandwiching something that may be considered negative between two positives. This could

be as simple as saying something like “Thank you for inviting me, but I won’t be able to join you.

I’d love to meet some other time and I’ll check my schedule and e what works.”

Honesty is key to making this work. You have to really check in with yourlf and understand

why you are saying no. The most important thing is to be aware of your personal needs and make

decisions that reflect your lf-respect and value your time and resources.

“Not being able to say no can be hard, and may even push you into a space where you’ re

exhausted in every possible way. It’s difficult to be in this position, becau you always end up

prioritizing others’ needs and wants above yours, which in the long run isn’t healthy for you. It is

arduous emotionally, mentally and physically,” psychotherapist Shaina Vasundhara Bhatia told

Healthshots.

It might take a long time until this new thought model begins to take root, until then Synergy

Health Programs recommends rehearsing(排练) in advance what your “no” will sound like, being

honest about why what has been requested does not work for you, taking your time to think

through the conquences of your decision and then offering your respon.

With time, you will begin to gain the benefits of being true to yourlf and you might find

that by saying no when something doesn’t feel right, you are actually opening the door to a

healthier you.

28. How does the text explain the “sandwich method”?

A. By using an example. B. By referring to quotes.

C. By making comparisons. D. By mentioning a magazine.

29. What does the underlined word “arduous” in paragraph 5 probably mean?

A. Beneficial. B. Struggling.

C. Natural. D. Unimportant.

30. What can be inferred about saying no?

A. It doesn’t come easy. B. It doesn’t require tips.

C. It proves very harmful. D. It is an immediate respon.

31. What is the author’s purpo in writing the text?

A. To show the harm of “yes”. B. To encourage us to be honest.

C. To tell the benefits of lf-care. D. To guide us to learn to say no.

D

When you’re worried about stumbling(绊脚), you look down at your feet when you walk.

Similarly, fish also do so when they swim, a new study finds.

When water moves around them, fish have to find ways to stabilize themlves so they don’t

get swept away. If they focus on other fish or other moving objects in the water, they might

wrongly believe they are moving. Instead, when they look down and focus on the river bottom,

they’re able to more correctly judge their movement and speed.

“There are many misleading motion cues(提示) above them, but the most abundant and

reliable signals are from the bottom of the river” says study author Emma Alexander, an assistant

professor of computer science at Northwestern University.

Rearchers were fascinated by a recently discovered behavior where fish respond more

strongly to motion below them than above them. To completely understand that behavior, they

turned to zebrafish, which are often ud for rearch and are well-studied. They had a team

following the fish in a lab and another in India to analyze the fish in their natural habitat.

In the lab, they tracked fish’s movements inside a tank. Rearchers recorded videos in ven

sites around India—in shallow rivers where zebrafish are found. They placed a camera inside a

waterproof ca and attached it to a remotely controlled robotic arm. They put the camera in the

water to e what the fish were doing.

Analyzing the videos and data, rearchers found that in both the wild and the lab situations,

zebrafish looked down when they were swimming forward. They came to the conclusion that the

fish looked down in order to understand the motion around them and then they were able to avoid

being swept away in the current.

“Understanding that ability not only helps rearchers learn more about fish, it may also give

them information when designing some robots. The finding of fish’s motion respon can help us

build artificial vision systems that benefit from the lessons of hundreds of millions of years of

evolution behind them.” Alexander says.

32. Why do fish ldom focus on other moving objects above them?

A. To save energy for their moving. B. To stay still in the water all the

time.

C. To avoid misleading motion cues. D. To protect themlves from

enemies.

33. What did the rearchers do for their study?

A. They collected a variety of fish from India.

B. They tracked fish’s movements in the rivers.

C. They created some natural habitats in their lab.

D. They interacted with fish in person in the water.

34. What does Emma Alexander mainly talk about in the last paragraph?

A. The crets of fish in the water. B. The value of the study finding.

C. The principles of designing robots. D. The meaning of artificial vision

systems.

35. What can be a suitable title for the text?

A. Watch Below to Avoid Stumbling

B. Artificial Vision Systems Are Vital

C. Fish Look Down When They Swim

D. Fish-inspired Robots Will Take Shape

Why Are Family Traditions Important?

Family traditions vary in how they’re celebrated, but they are all of great significance. Let’s

explore the importance of family traditions in today’s fast-paced world.

They give a reason for the family to get together.

36 That being said, sticking to a date is often necessary to coordinate (协调)

everyone’s jam-packed schedules. 37 You are much less likely to cancel a time-honored

family tradition than a casual lunch. Family traditions give family members something to look

forward to and bring them together.

They promote a healthy work-life balance.

Nowadays, remote work has been a way of life for millions of people While

telecommuting(远程办公) has its benefits, it can also make it difficult to achieve a work-life

balance. Since the workplace is where you spend the majority of your time, you’re likely to

parate yourlf from the rest of the world. 38

They create good family dynamics.

Many family members lead vastly different lifestyles. 39 Even if you all have

different interests and opinions, you can bond over your shared family experience.

Celebrating family traditions develops relationships between family members. This

connection is priceless and fosters(培养) positive family dynamics.

40

Family traditions foster a family identity that gives each member a n of belonging and

personal pride. When you feel safe and cure in the family connections, you have a ba of

emotional support to return to throughout your lifetime. A n of belonging to family and

community is esntial for social and emotional well-being.

A. They create a n of comfort and order.

B. They give family members a n of belonging.

C. Establish a family tradition that happens on a busy day.

D. You don’t need an excu to spend time with your family.
