Statement from Scholastic on Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find ThemIn the first printing of the newly updated Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them brought out by Scholastic, three sentences from the original section on Hippogriffs were accidentally left off. We regret this error and we want to promise our readers that those editions are no longer being shipped and a corrected edition is now in print and being shipped for all current orders.We want the Harry Potter fans who eagerly secured their copies on the initial printing to be fully satisfied with their purchase. Therefore, any book with the missing sentences can be exchanged for the newer version by returning the book to Scholastic.To exchange your copy for the corrected edition, please call the customer service department at 877﹣226﹣1064, Monday through Friday, 7 am through 6 pm Central Time to receive a prepaid mailing label (标签) to return your copy. We will send you the corrected edition upon receipt of the copy with the missing sentences.We take pride in the entirety of the books we publish, and we have corrected this error as quickly as possible in a way that will address our readers' concerns most effectively.

Norway shares a long eastern border with Sweden and is bordered by Finland and Russia to the north﹣east, and the Skagerrak strait to the south ﹣ Denmark on the other side of the strait. It has an extensive coastline, facing the North Atlantic Ocean and the Barents Sea.For the last few years, Norway has registered the highest quality of life among the worlds nations. It is one of the wealthiest countries in the world. Norwegians can also expect to get a good education, find the job, they want ﹣ unemployment is only 4 percent according to recent data updated in January, 2019 ﹣enjoy good health and live a long life. Its achievement today is completely unexpected for many people, especially senior citizens there. Just 80 years ago Norwegians were moving to the USA in their thousands in search of a better life. The rise in oil prices in the 1970s changed all that. On a per﹣capita (人均的) basis, Norway is the world's largest producer of oil outside of the Middle East.When you arrive in Oslo, the capital of Norway, for the first time, don't expect to be met by Dubai﹣style skyscrapers, and rows of Ferraris and Porsches. In 2018, Norway became one of the few countries where over 5 in every 100 passenger cars on the rads is a plug﹣in electric one. Norwegians also work hard and are always near the top in research on global worker productivity rates. But in today's high﹣tech world where work seems to follow us wherever we go, the people of Norway are redefining (重新定义) what wealth means. Laws just recently passed by the government attach great importance to family and time off.Also, the country is saving for the future. Every dollar earned from oil is put straight into its pensions ﹣ worth billions of dollars. At a time when most other western countries are wondering how they will finance the pensions of a growing retired population, ________.(1)Where is the Skagerrak strait?________A Near the Barents Sea.B On the east of FinlandC Near the north of Norway.D On the north of Denmark.(2)What leads to Norway's success?________A Its huge reserve of oil.B Its low unemployment rate.C Its quality education.D Its pleasant natural environment..(3)What can be inferred about Norway from paragraph 3?________A It puts much focus on the traffic.B Norwegians are seeking for moremoney. C It is modest about its wealth. D Norwegians try to keep away from high technology..(4)What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph convey?________A Norway's future should be considered.B Norway wouldn't like to make changes.C Norway has accumulated enough pensions.D Norway's retired population is decreasing.3. What would you do if you ever found yourself lost in the wild? To find out, you can joina weekend survival journey in the Australian Outback. This broad area is famous for its extreme desert climate.To survive, your first task will be to find water, a rare but necessary thing in the desert. Animals such as ants and seed﹣eating birds are strong indicators of water. You can also cut and suck water from the roots and leaves of plants. Trees like the desert oak have roots near the surface. But be careful. The branches of gum trees are a rich source of water, but the leaves are poisonous, so don't eat them.The best place to build a shelter is in an area with the least amount of sunlight, like between sand dunes (沙丘) or in a trench (壕沟). To make a trench dig a hole big enough to lie down in and use the extra sand to create a barrier or wall on each side. This can help to ________ you from the baking heat of the sun.Nights can be cold, so knowing how to make a fire is very important. One way to build a fire is to use the hand drill method, This is one of the oldest and simplest ways to start afire. It involves rolling a stick between your hands while pressing it onto a piece of wood with dry tinder (引火物) below. The idea is to use friction to create enough heat to make the tinder start burning. This can be a lot of work.As for food, you have to be open﹣minded. Some forms of life can be ugly to look at but can provide you with enough protein to survive. They may even taste good, like scrambled eggs!(1)Which of the following can provide the water you need?________A Leaves of gum trees.B Roots of desert oak.C Roots of gumtrees. D Ants and seed﹣eating birds..(2)What does the underlined word "________"mean in paragraph 3?________A Protect.B BuryC Purchase.D Change..(3)What principle does the method of building a fire in the wild work on?________A Gravity.B Pressure.C Friction.D Movement..(4)What's the writers purpose of writing this text?________A To share a survival journey.B To introduce some daily living skills.C To describe lives in a famous desert.D To tell us some survival skills in deserts.4. Cortana. Alexa. Siri. These are names of robotic voices that are often programmed on electronic tablets. They also become default (默认) identities for people with speech disorders who rely on technology to communicate. Now some speech scientists are developing personalized voices to reflect the broader diversity of the people who use them. To do it, they are tapping into a vast network of volunteers who are donating their voices to share with people who cannot speak.The effort to build an international "Human Voice Bank" has attracted more than 17, 000 volunteers from 110 countries, including Priyanka Pandya, a 16﹣year﹣old from Columbia, who plans to spend her winter vacation recording a string of sentences into her computer. "To be able to give somebody the gift of voice, I think that's really, really powerful, "she said."Everyone has a voice, "said Rupal Patel, founder of VocaliD, the company that started the voice bank. "Even people who are unable to speak have sounds that are unique to them." Her company designs personalized voices by recording the unique sounds of the user, and then mixing them with 6 to 10 hours of recordings from a voice donor, matched byage, gender and region. The company is developing voices now for its first 100 customers. Also, people's voices change. The company is looking for donors who are willing to record their voices, and then record them again a few years later, as they get older.Some of the first customers say they are happy with the results. John A. George was one of the first customers to receive a personalized voice from VocaliD last December. The voice came eight years after he developed ALS(肌萎缩侧索硬化症) and more than six years have passed since his voice became unclear to everyone except his wife and youngest son. "Having a distinctive voice is like getting something back that was stolen, "John said.(1)What can we know about the voice bank?________A It collects all kinds of voices.B It gains strong public support.C It helps to recognize special voices.D It offers people personalized voices free..(2)What can we know about the process of designing personalized voices?________A The user's sounds are mixed up with 6 to 10 volunteers' voices.B The users' sounds are useless in designing personalized voices.C The company has attracted 17,000 customers from 110 countries.D The personalized voices are consistent with the customers in gender..(3)What does the example of John A. George stress?________A Customers' desire for personalized voices.B Customers' satisfaction with personalized voices.C VocaliD's efforts to develop personalizedvoices. D VocaliD's success in designing personalized voices..(4)What is the main idea of the text?________A Volunteers donate their voices to Vocali D The Human Voice bank wins fame among people with speech problems.B VocaliD is devoted to building a voicebank. C The Human Voice bank helps people with speech problems.第二节(共1小题;每小题10分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处最佳选项.选项中有两项为多余选项.5.

Fortunately, The Environmental Working Group (EWG) has done all of the work for you in finding healthy and pesticide-free produce.EWG has created the 2018 Shopper’s Guide to Pesticides in Produce, which h elps shoppers to find uncontaminated produce. Many consumers do not realize that pesticide residues (残留) are very common on conventionally grown produce products, even after they have been washed or peeled. Because of this, EWG has created their series of guides to lead consumers to safer food choices.In order to create these guides, EWG analyzed the USDA pesticides tests, which found a total of 230 different pesticides and pesticides breakdown products on thousands of produce samples. Analyzing this information, EWG observed the big differences of the amount of pesticides found from product to product.T he guide’s two main components are two compiled lists highlighting the cleanest and dirtiest produce concerning pesticides. These two lists, Dirty Dozen and Clean Fifteen, show consumers how certain foods continue to carry trace amounts of pesticides with them all the way to the grocery store shelves, while others make it to your kitchen virtually pesticide-free.Some of the highlights from their analyses included the following findings:• More than one-third of strawberry samples analyzed in 2016 contained 10 or more pesticide residues and breakdown products.• Spinach(菠菜)samples had, on average, almost twice as much pesticide residue by weight compared to any other crop.• No single fruit sample from the Clean Fifteen tested positive for more than four pes ticides.“With EWG’s guide, consumers can fill their fridges and fruit bowls with plenty of healthy conventional and organic produce that isn’t contaminated with multiple pesticide residue,” said Sonya Lunder, a senior analyst in EWG.Only 25 years ago, the National Academy of Sciences raised concerns about exposure to poisonous pesticides in our food, yet consumers still consume a mixture of pesticides every day in America.4.Why did EWG create the 2018 Shopper’s Guide to Pesticides in Produce?A.To analyze the USDA pesticides tests. B.To advertise organic produce.C.To warn some food companies. D.To help consumers make safer choices. 5.What is the result from the analysis of the USDA pesticides tests?A.All the samples are polluted.

If each eye is receiving different information, we only consciously perceive what dominant one sees. But non-dominant sights can still enter our subconscious.They showed 43 people two sets of flashing images at the same time, so that the dominant eye saw and registered neutral expressions, while the non-dominant eye ‘saw’ flashes of neutral, or smiling faces, which they would only subconsciously be aware of.After viewing the flashing faces, the researchers showed the participants options of faces and asked them to pick out which ones they had seen.When their non-dominant eyes had seen a happy face, they were more likely to think the neutral face had actually been smiling, and the same was true for other expressions.This means that ‘if you see the Mona Lisa after you have just had a screaming fight with your husb and, you’re going to see the painting differently,’ says Dr Siegel.‘But if you’re having the time of your life at the Louvre, you’re going to see the mysterious smile,’ she adds.‘We are the architects of our own experience. Our brain makes predictions ab out what it expects to see and uses information from the world to update its expectations,’ Dr Siegel says.8.What is the purpose of Dr Erika Siegel’s research?A.To win a debate.B.To help appreciate the Mona Lisa.C.To tell a smiling face from a neutral face.D.To discover why people perceive the same thing differently.9.Which of the following is the closest in meaning to “shed new light” in Paragraph 3?A.Made something bright. B.Provided new explanations.C.Added light-colored paints. D.Increased amount of natural light. 10.Why did the researchers show the participants two sets of flashing images?A.To play a game.B.To confuse their dominant and non-dominant eyes.C.To strengthen the effect of the non-dominant eyes.D.To provide images of more expressions.DDear Rudyard Kipling,Father has consistently tried to instill(灌输) a sense of being a man in me ever since I was very young. When I reached the age of twelve he began taking me to his auto body shop. He told me this tough jobwould build me into a man of character. But this all changed a year ago when my mother passed away and stumbled upon your poem, If.My mother was the person who could understand me. If I ever got tired during my work hours at the shop I could call her to come and pick me up. It was my mother who instilled the love of literature and languages in me. My mother spoke six languages fluently and had thousands of books, which still sit in the attic of our house. It was in this “library” of hers that I picked up a book of poetry from a cold metal shelf and found your poem, If.Because of the death of my mother I felt alone, as if I belonged to no family. The image of a man was completely shattered when I saw him break down and cry, which looked so pathetic(凄惨的)and “unmanly” compared to his usual stoic(禁欲主义者)and emotionless countenance. Yet I remained silent remembering the golden words: “If you can keep your head when all about you/ Are losing theirs and blaming it on you… you’ll be a Man, my son!”If reminded me to remain calm and “keep my head” because I wanted t o be a man and wanted to be the one supporting my family. I sacrificed my ability to compete in a winter sport so that I could stay home and cook for my family and clean the house. My father saw this and our relationship has grown much stronger. He finally respected me for who I was and told me he was proud to have a man for his son. Through this poem, I realize that to be a man is not about putting weights on a barbell(杠铃)but rather putting the weight of others on your back.Your poem was so much more than just a simple list of guidelines or morals that some see it as; it really changed my life and my relationship with my dad.11.According to the passage, what kind of person does the author’s father expect him to be?A.A person who will shoulder responsibilities.B.A person who knows how to earn a lot of money.C.A person who knows how to do housework.D.A person who respects his parents.12.Who does the underlined word “him” in paragraph 3 refer to?A.the character in the poem B.the author’s fatherC.the author D.an unknown person13.According to the passage, a man in the author’s mind would have the following qualities EXCEPT _________.A.responsible B.enthusiastic C.caring D.calm14.We can learn from the passage that ___________.A.the author’s mother had told him about this poem beforeB.the author would not know how to help his family without the poemC.the author’s father must have read the poem as wellD.the poem has helped to improve the relationship between the author and his father15.The author has written this letter to ___________.A.share his opinion on the poemB.tell Rudyard Kipling how he got the poemC.share with Rudyard Kipling his sadness resulting from the death of his motherD.show his appreciation for the positive influence the poem has brought to him第二节篇章填空(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。

Gilleece,saying she lost her wallet at his bar with her wedding ring inside.Gilleece looked through camera videos,watching the woman's every step in the bar until she went to sit on a bench bar outside and left when her ride arrived.Thena young man approached the bench and put something in his pocket.Gilleece posted severalpictures on the bar's Facebook page,asking if anybody knew the guy.Within hours,Gilleece got a text from 17﹣year﹣old Prather.Prather admitted having taken the wallet because he hadn't eaten in two days.He said he saw the ring but just took the money and threw the wallet off the public docks(码头)into the ocean.Gilleece,unsure whether he believed Prather,told the teen to meet him at the bar.There,Prather said that,not getting along with his family,he had been living in the woods for a week.Gilleece saw him as a kid rather than a criminal.But the police were already on the case,and because of the missing ring,Prather could face prison.Gilleece planned to employ two divers to search for it.Meanwhile,the police wanted Gilleece to bring the teen to the station.He called them and said,"He's going to be at the docks with me tomorrow."The next day a crowd gathered to watch the two divers search in the waters Prathermentioned.Finally a diver appeared with the wallet,and inside was the ring.Cheers burst from the crowd.The wallet's owner immediately dropped the charges against Prather.But troubled by Prather sleeping in the cold woods,Gilleece told the teen she could stay with him and his family until he stood on his own feet.She also gave the

children receive more attention,they often have higher IQs.Babies receive information when they see,hearand feel things,which makes connections between different parts of the brain.There are a hundred trillion connections in the brain of a three﹣year﹣old child.Researcher Judit Gervain tested how good newborns are at distinguishing different sound patterns.Her researchers produced images of the brains of babies as they heard different sound patterns.For example,one order was mu﹣ba﹣ba.This is the pattern "A﹣B﹣B".Another order was mu﹣ba﹣ge.This is the pattern "A﹣B﹣C".The images showed that the part of the brain responsible for speech was more active during the "A﹣B﹣B" pattern.This shows that babies can tell the difference between different patterns.They also were sensitive to where it occurred in the order.Gervain is excited by these findings because the order of sounds is the building block of words and grammar."Position is key to language," she says."If something is at the beginning or at the end,it makes a big difference:‘John caught the bear.' is very different from ‘The bear caught John.'"Researchers led by scientist Patricia Kuhl have found that language delivered by televisions,audio books,the Internet,or Smartphones ﹣no matter how educational ﹣doesn't appear to be enough for children's brain development.They carried out a study of nine ﹣month﹣old American babies.They expected the first group who'd watched videos in Chinese to show the same kind of learning as the second group who were brought face﹣to﹣face with the same sounds.Instead they found a huge difference.The babies in the second group were able to distinguish between similar Chinese sounds as well as native listeners.But the other babies ﹣regardless of whether they had watched the video or listened to the audio ﹣learned nothing.(1)What makes connections in a baby's brain?A.Experiencing new information.B.Having a higher IQ.C.The connection with other babies.D.The baby's early age.(2)What did Judit Gervain and her team find in the experiment?A.Word order is relevant to meaning.B.Babies identify different sound patterns.C.A certain brain region processes language.D.Babies can well understand different words.(3)What does the underlined sentence mean in Paragraph 3?A.Words have different sounds.B.Different languages have different grammar.C.Different orders have different meanings.D.Grammar is important in learning languages.(4)What is the main conclusion from the study led by Patricia Kuhl?A.Babies shouldn't watch a lot of television.B.Foreign languages help babies' brain develop.C.Listening to different languages develops babies' brain.D.Social communication improves babies' brain development.14.(8分)When it comes to focusing at work,there is no lack of things to take responsibility for our wandering minds.Refreshing Twitter,scanning the news,talking with colleagues about small beer.But there's one possible cause of frequent distraction.Our work isn't complex enough,and there isn't enough of it.This idea isn't popular,especially with those who feel they're already working busily.Actually complex tasks demand more of our working memory and attention,with little mental distraction.We get bored when our skills go beyond the demands of our work.And we feel anxious when the demands of a task go beyond our skills.Understanding your skill level,and matching this with a worthy task will make you more likely to be fully devoted to your work.Besides questioning the complexity of tasks,it's worth reflecting on whether you have enough work to do in general.If not,you're inviting distraction.Think back to your last deadline.That timeline offers you no distractions like using social media.Our workload tends to expand to fit the time available for the completion of work.Small tasks that should take two hours will take an entire workday if we have that time available.Distractions are to blame for this time trap.A few years ago,after I finished a report on a tight deadline,I continued to be just asbusy.I entered my social media accounts when I should have been working.I checked newemails constantly.I felt guilty when I wasn't busy,and I alleviated this guilt by filling my time with busy work.Later I realized busy work couldn't really bring the relief,for the guilt came from the fact that I was working without intention.When we have more to do,choosing what we do ahead of time becomes necessary.Therefore,if you have distraction,consider that you might need to work harder on projects that will fill your days and enrich your life.(1)What do people usually blame for being distracted?A.The absence of work complexity.B.Their colleagues' lack of teamwork.C.Social media or chats with colleagues.D.The tiredness after hours of hard work.(2)When will we feel anxious at work?A.When we don't have enough tasks to do.B.When our ability can't meet job requirements.C.When we are busy with work for a long while.D.When we spend too much time on social media.(3)Which of the following can best explain "alleviated" underlined in paragraph 4?A.Transformed.B.Researched.C.Deepened.D.Eased.(4)What's the author's suggestion on dealing with distraction?A.Balance our work and social activities.B.Work hard with the intention to fill our life.C.Expand our workload to fit the time available.D.Remove the sense of guilt about mind's wandering away.第二节(满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项.选项中有两项为多余选项15.(10分)I did not go on my first hike until my mid﹣30s.I could blame it on the fact that Igrew up on the Great Plains of South Dakota and North Dakota.(1)Having never gone,I didn't see the value and always shook my head when asked.(2)At the urging of my wife,and with my two young kids,we walked a beautiful forest path on a cool August morning.I carried a small backpack with water and snacks.When we reached the top,we ate lunch together overlooking a perfectly still pond and a scenic Vermont.A few weeks ago,my 11﹣year﹣old son,my 61﹣year﹣old dad,and I hikedCamelback Mountain in Phoenix.Last weekend,I hiked down the Grand Canyon with my son along the South Kaibab trail.And later this week,my wife and daughter will join us to walk the Waterfall Trail in the White Tank Mountains.(3).Now,just to be clear,by no means would I classify myself as an expert hiker.(4)And I have no plans to climb Mount Kilimanjaro or walk the Appalachian Trail.But waking early on a Saturday morning to walk 3~5miles along a forest path with lunch in the backpack is a journey I'd recommend to anyone.It is healthy physical exercise that creates wonderful memories.(5)And given the chance,hiking teaches us important truths about life.A.Most of our hikes only last 2 hours.B.I've fallen in love with climbing mountains.C.I love the stillness and calm of an empty path.D.But mostly,to be honest,I just wasn't interested.E.If you can climb a mountain,you can do anything.F.It provides an opportunity to slow down and disconnect.G.I went on my first hike a few years back while living in Vermont.第三部分:英语知识运用(共两节)第一节:完形填空(共20个小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑.16.(30分)In Germany,it's normal to

Gilleece looked through camera videos, watching the woman’s ev ery step in the bar until she went to sit on a bench bar outside and left when her ride arrived. Then a young man approached the bench and put something in his pocket. Gi lleece posted several pictures on the bar’s Facebook page, asking if anybody knew the guy.Within hours, Gilleece got a text from 17-year-old Prather. Prather admitted having taken the wallet because he hadn’t eaten in two days. He said he saw the ring but just took the money and threw the wallet off the public docks(码头) into the ocean.Gilleece, unsure whether he believed Prather, told the teen to meet him at the bar. There, Prather said that, not getting along with his family, he had been living in the woods for a week. Gilleece saw him as a kid rather than acriminal. But the police were already on the case, and because of the missing ring, Prather could face prison. Gilleece planned to employ two divers to search for it. Meanwhile, the police wanted Gilleece to bring the teen to the station.

When children receive more attention, they often have higher IQs. Babies receive information when they see, hear and feel things, which makes connections between different parts of the brain. There are a hundred trillion connections in the brain of a three-year-old child. Researcher Judit Gervain tested how good newborns are at distinguishing different sound patterns. Her researchers produced images of the brains of babies as they heard different sound patterns. For example, one order was mu-ba-ba. This is the pattern “A-B-B”. Another order was mu-ba-ge. This is the pattern “A-B-C”. The images showed that the part of the brainresponsible for speech was more active during the “A-B-B” pattern. This shows that babies can tell the difference between different patterns. They also were sensitive to where it occurred in the order.Gervain is excited by these findings because the order of sounds is the building block of words and grammar. “Position is key to language,” she says. “If something is at the beginning or at the end, it makes a big d ifference: ‘John caught the bear.’ is very different from ‘The bear caught John.’”Researchers led by scientist Patricia Kuhl have found that language delivered by televisions, audio books, the Internet, or Smartphones —no matter how educational —doesn’t appe ar to be enough for children’s brain development. They carried out a study of nine-month-old American babies. They expected the first group who’d watched videos in Chinese to show the same kind of learning as the second group who were brought face-to-face with the same sounds. Instead they found a huge difference. The babies in the second group were able to distinguish between similar Chinese sounds as well as native listeners. But the other babies — regardless of whether they had watched the video or listened to the audio — learned nothing.28. What makes connections in a baby’s brain?A. Experiencing new information.B.

What is the main conclusion from the study led by Patricia Kuhl?A. Babies shou ldn’t watch a lot of television.B. Foreign languages help babies’ brain develop.C. Listening to different languages develops babies’ brain.D. Social communication improves babies’ brain development.DWhen it comes to focusing at work, there is no lack of things to take responsibility for our wandering minds.Refreshing Twitter, scanning the news, talking with colleagues about small beer. But there’s one possible cause of frequent distraction. Our work isn’t complex enough, and there isn’t enough of it.This idea isn’t popular, especially with those who feel they’re already working busily. Actually complex tasks demand more of our working memory and attention, with little mental distraction. We get bored when our skills go beyond the demands of our work. And we feel anxious when the demands of a task go beyond our skills. Understanding your skill level, and matching this with a worthy task will make you more likely to be fully devoted to your work. Besides questioning the complexity of tasks, it’s w orth reflecting on whether you have enough work to do in general. If not, you’re inviting distraction.Think back to your last deadline. That timeline offers you no distractions like using social media. Our workload tends to expand to fit the time available for the completion of work. Small tasks that should take two hours will take an entire workday if we have that time available. Distractions are to blame for this time trap.A few years ago, after I finished a report on a tight deadline, I continued to be just as busy. I entered my social media accounts when I should have been working. I checked new emails constantly. I felt guilty when I wasn’t busy, and I alleviated this guilt by filling my time with busy work.Later I realized busy work couldn’t really bring the relief, for the guilt came from the fact that I was working without intention. When we have more to do, choosing what we do ahead of time becomes necessary. Therefore, if you have distraction, consider that you might need to work harder on projects that will fill your days and enrich your life.32. What do people usually blame for being distracted?A. The absence of work complexity.B. Their colleagues’ lack of teamwork.C. Social media or chats with colleagues.D. The tiredness after hours of hard work.33. When will we feel anxious at work?A. When we don’t have enough tasks to do.B. When our ability can’t meet job requirements.C. When we are busy with work for a long while.D. When we spend too much time on social media.34. Which of the followi ng can best explain “alleviated” underlined in paragraph 4?A. Transformed.B. Researched.C. Deepened.D. Eased.35. What’s the author’s suggestion on dealing with distraction?A. Balance our work and social activities.B. Work hard with the intention to fill our life.C. Expand our workload to fit the time available.D. Remove the sense of guilt about mind’s wandering away.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项。
