15．Why is setting goals important？（16）FInstead of just letting life happen to you，goals allow you to make your life happen．
Successful people imagine how their life should be and set lots of goals．（17）CIt's like having a map to show you where you want to go．Think of in this way．There are two drivers．One has a destination in mind which can be found in a map．She can drive straight there without any wasted time or wrong turns．The other driver has no goal，or destination or map．She starts off at the same time from the same place as the first driver，but she drivers aimlessly around．Never getting anywhere，just using up gas．Which driver do you want to be？
（18）AThey decide what they want in life and then get there by making plans and setting goals．Unsuccessful people just let life happen by accident．Goals aren't difficult to set，and they aren't difficult to reach．（19）BYou are the one who must decide what to achieve and in what direction to aim your life．
（20）GWritten goals can be reviewed regularly，and have more power．Like a contract with yourself，they are harder to neglect or forget．Also when you write your goals in a particular way you are able to make yourself continuously aware of situations that will bring you nearer to your goal．

A．Winners in life set goals and follow through
B..It's up to you to find out what your goals really are
C．By setting goals you are taking control of your life
D．Because everybody should have a goal in his mind
E．It's difficult for a driver to reach his destination without a map
F．Because goals can help you do，be and experience everything you want in life
G．Research tells us that when we write a goal down，we are more likely to achieve it．

分析 本文主要说了确定目标的重要性．通过设定目标，你可以控制自己的生活．这就像有一张地图告诉你你想去的地方．成功者设定目标，他们决定自己想要什么样的生活，然后通过制定计划实现目标．

解答 16．F．推理判断题．根据空格前面的Why is setting goals important：为什么制定目标是重要的？可知下句：因为目标可以帮助你做，经历在生活中你想要的一切．故选F．
17．C．推理判断题．根据空格前一句Successful people imagine how their life should be and set lots of goals：成功的人会设想他们的生活是什么样并且确定很多目标．可知下句：通过制定目标你可以掌控你的生活．故选C．
18．A．推理判断题．根据下一句They decide what they want in life and then get there by making plans and setting goals：他们决定自己想要什么样的生活，然后通过制定计划实现目标．可知是上句：：生活中的成功者设定目标，并追随它们．故选A．
19．B．推理判断题．根据下句You are the one who must decide what to achieve and in what direction to aim your life：你必须决定要达到什么目的和人生方向．可知此处的意思是：人生目标主要由你来决定．可知B项符合题意．
20．G．推理判断题．下句Written goals can be reviewed regularly，and have more power．Like a contract with yourself是：写下来的目标定期检查，会有更多的力量．可知空格出：研究表明，当我们记下了目标，我们就更有可能把它实现．故选G．

点评 七选五阅读是完成性阅读，和完形填空很类似，不同的是一个选词，一个选句子．解题时，要注意上下文语境，充分考虑信息词（选项中和空格前后句子中相同或相近的词），选出最符合语境的句子．

5．Advances in health，education and disease prevention and treatments are making human life longer．But what you may not know is that some seemingly unimportant things can also influence how long and how well you'll live．Here is the latest research on longevity signs．
Sign 1：Your Mom Had You Young
If she was under age 25，you're twice as likely to live to 100 as someone born to an older mom．They think that younger moms produce healthier babies．
Sign 2：You're a Tea Lover
Both green tea and black tea contain catechins（儿茶酚），something that helps blood vessels（血管） relax and protects your heart．
Sign 3：You'd Rather Walk
"Fit"people-defined as those who walk for about 30 minutes a day-are more likely to live longer than those who walk less．So take a walk during your lunch hour，do exercise around the field while your kid is at soccer practice-try by hook or by crook to move a little more，every day．
Sign 4：You Have Strong Legs
Lower-body strength translates into good balance，flexibility and power，which，as you get older，play an important part in reducing your risk of falls and injuries，leading to better health．Now you see，it is necessary to strengthen your lower-body．But the question is：how？
25．Which of the following is TRUE？B
A．Green tea contains more catechins than black tea．
B．Generally，the younger the moms，the healthier the babies．
C．The more you walk，the longer you live．
D．Low-body strength is the most important factor for longevity．
26．The underlined phrase is closest in meaning to"A"．
A．try any possible means              
B．use some tools  
C．choose carefully                    
D．Work out new ways
27．What is the passage mainly about？D
A．How advanced science helps people live longer．
B．How women give birth to healthy babies．
C．Signs that tell you your health condition．
D．The new discoveries of longevity signs．
6．A．Be realistic．
B．Set specific goals．
C．Make changes slowly．
D．Be responsible for yourself．
E．Deal with failure positively．
F．Make sure your actions match your words．

Consistency（一贯性） is one of those general features that everyone wants，but few people actually manage to gain．Don't worry!Here is some advice that will help you．
（61）F
Being consistent means that you don't say one thing while actually doing something else．You can't be inconsistent in your behavior and expect yourself to behave consistently in other parts of your life．Try to avoid saying words that you can't back up with your actions．There is no shame in admitting you don't yet know how to do something．For example，if you're tasked with something at work that you haven't done before or don't know how to do，don't pretend like you have got everything under control．Instead，ask for some help and show your willingness to learn something you don't know．
（62）B
General consistency is great，but being consistent is not easier and more likely to succeed if you set specific goals．These goals will help you behave consistently and give you something to work for．You can set a variety of goals in different areas of your life．For example，if your specific goal is to lose weight，you would need to work on being consistent with exercise，with your diet（eating healthy foods），etc．
（63）C
If you try and do everything at once all，you will be very tired．It will make it a lot harder for you to be consistent．Make gradual changes instead of jumping a big step．If you can do something for three weeks，it will become part of your routine．Pick one thing you'll work to be consistent in for a month．When that month is up，add another thing to be consistent in．
（64）D
To be consistent you have to make sure that you recognize when you don't come up to the standards and goals that you've set．And that is when you don't act consistently with your goals．On a calendar write down each day whether you succeeded or failed in following your consistency goals．If you failed，explain why you didn't follow them．This will help keep you responsible for when you don't follow your goals and will also serve as a marker of your progress．
（65）E
Everyone fails．It doesn't matter how hard you work，how intelligent you are and how prepared you are，because you aren't always going to succeed．You have to be willing to entertain that possibility and work out what to do if you don't succeed．How are you going to handle failure？Plan for your setbacks and failures．If that literary agent rejects your manuscript，find out where next to send it，or look it over to see what might be improved．
3．China's new"Belt and Road"strategy has considerable potential to create positive____for China's neighbors．（　　）

10．‘Kangaroo mothering'helps boost a child's health and intelligence
"Kangaroo mothering"，the practice of continuous skin-to-skin contact with a newborn baby，results in healthier，more intelligent and successful children，a new study finds．
A 20-year follow-up research found that those brought up in the kangaroo method scored higher in IQ tests and earned 53% more．They were also found to be less likely to have behavior problems than babies in a control group．
Followers of the method nest their kids in a"kangaroo"position on their chest as soon as possible after birth．Both mother and baby are supposed to go home as quickly as possible．
The technique is often used in cases of premature birth （早产）．In such cases，the trained mother acts as the child's main source of stimulation （刺激） and food，in the form of breast feeding．Between 1993and 1996，a group of more than 700prematurely born babies in Columbia were，on the basis of random selection，placed either away from mother or were raised using the kangaroo method．Two decades later，a follow-up survey funded by the Canadian Government has shown that those who went through the latter method benefited by comparison．
Published in the journal Paediatrics，the research shows that kangaroo mothering offered significant protection against early death，with a 3.5% death rate compared to a 7.7% rate in the control group．IQ test also showed a small but significant advantage of 3.5% compared to other infants．
Lead researcher Dr Nathalie Charpak，of the Kangaroo Foundation in Bogota，said the method has"significant，long-lasting social and behavioral protective effects"．"We firmly believe that this is a powerful，efficient，scientifically based healthcare intervention that can be used in all settings，from those with very restricted to unrestricted access to healthcare．"
The study also found that，compared with babies in the control group，those raised in the kangaroo method went on to develop bigger brains，with significantly larger volumes of gray matter．

63．According to the passage，what is"kangaroo mothering"？C
A．Mothers trying their best to improve their babies'IQs．
B．Mothers raising their babies in bags like kangaroos．
C．Mothers staying in touch with their babies early and constantly．
D．Mothers breastfeeding their babies instead of using milk powder．
64．The underlined word"infants"in Paragraph 5 probably meansA．
A．children B．kangaroos      C．parents  D．researchers
65．What is Dr Nathalie Charpak's attitude toward Kangaroo mothering？D
A．Sceptical．B．Neutral．C．Disapproving．D．Supportive．
66．This passage shows that Kangaroo mothering canB．
A．give children bigger heads
B．benefit children's brain growth
C．reduce the number of premature births
D．solve school children's behavioral problems．
20．Five Things Confident People Would Never Do
Get defensive when corrected
Confident people understand their own talents and faults．They treat others'opinion not as criticizing（批评），but as a training opportunity and a chance to improve．（36）G
Try to please everyone
There's a difference between wanting to help others and devoting yourself to making everyone like you．"（37）E，while the latter is impossible and will actually kill self-confidence．"says Joseph R．Sanok，MA，a business coach，and author of Practice of the Practice．
（38）C
Your first mental image of"confidence"may involve（涉及） speaking in front of a crowd or leading a team，but in reality，the more confident people are，the less they feel like they have to prove themselves．This means they are slow to speak and quick to listen，especially with those closest to them．
Spend hours on Wechat（微信）
（39）F．Spending too much time on Wechat looking at everyone's"perfect"lives will make anyone feel less confident，so use social media only with a clear intention．"Confident people use social media to connect with someone，and they don't just surf it because they're bored．"Sanok says．
Make fun of others
Making fun of others is often used by insecure people to make themselves look and feel better by comparison．（40）B．Instead，confident people show their strength by supporting others around them．This will not only make you more confident but it will also make people more confident in you．"We all value and believe in those who value us．"she adds．

A．Be eager to listen
B．But it doesn't work
C．Talk more than listen
D．They do this on purpose
E．The former is a nice quality
F．Confident people use social media wisely
G．So they are able to politely accept criticism．

4．Plants are flowering faster than scientists predicted （预测） in reaction to climate change，which could have long damaging effects on food chains and ecosystems．
Global warming is having a great effect on hundreds of plant and animal species around the world，changing some living patterns，scientists say．
Increased carbon dioxide （CO2） in the air from burning coal and oil can have an effect on how plants produce oxygen，while higher temperatures and changeable rainfall patterns can change their patterns of growth．
"Predicting species，reaction to climate change is a major challenge in ecology，"said the researchers of several U．S．universities．They said plants had been the key object of study because their reaction to climate change could have an effect on food chains and ecosystem services．
The study，published on the Nature website，uses the findings from plant life cycle studies and experiments across four continents and 1，634 species．It found that some experiments had underestimated （低估） the speed of flowering by 8.5 times and leafing by 4 times．
"Across all species，the experiments under-predicted the speed of the advance-for both leafing and flowering-that results from temperature increase，"the study said．
The design of future experiments may need to be improved to better predict how plants will react to climate change，it said．
Plants are necessary for life on the Earth．They are the base of the food chain，using photosynthesis （光合作用） to produce sugar from carbon dioxide and water．They let out oxygen which is needed by nearly every organism on the planet．
Scientists believe the world's average temperature has risen by about 0.8℃since 1900，and nearly 0.2℃every ten years since 1979．
So far，efforts to cut emissions （排放） of planet-warming greenhouse gases are not seen as enough to prevent the Earth heating up beyond 2℃this century-a point scientists say will bring the danger of a changeable climate in which weather extremes are common，leading to drought，floods，crop failures and rising sea levels．

29．What is the main idea of Paragraph 1？B
A．Plants'reaction to weather could have damaging effects on ecosystems．
B．The increasing speed of flowering is beyond scientists'expectation．
C．Climate change leads to the change of food production patterns．
D．Food chains have been seriously damaged because of weather．
30．We can learn from the study published on the Nature website thatC．
A．plants'flowering is 8.5 times faster than leafing
B．there are 1，634 plant species on the four continents
C．scientists should improve the design of the experiments
D．the experiments failed to predict how plants react to climate change
31．Scientists pay special attention to the study of plants becauseB．
A．they can prove the climate change clearly
B．they are very important in the food chains
C．they play a leading role in reducing global warming
D．they are growing and flowering much faster than before
32．What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs about the world's temperature？A
A．It needs to be controlled within 2℃in this century．
B．Its change will lead to weather extremes．
C．It is 0.8℃higher in 1979 than that of 1900．
D．It has risen nearly 0.2℃since 1979．
5．The AIIB is an international financial organization proposed by China，____ aims to support basic construction projects in Asia．（　　）
