It may be from 21 days to 8 months or more.Why is the range so wide? What can you do to build a habit faster?A popular answer, “21 days, is the time within which people can build a new habit. Many people have applied the “21-day” time to all habits. However, not all behaviours are the same and some may need over three weeks.How long it takes to establish a habit may depend on what the tip and the purpose is. Forming a habit may take between 18 and 254 days. Researchers found the average amount of time needed for a behaviour to become a habit is 66 days. They mentioned that different actions required a different level of effort too, For example, those who were asked to develop a habit of drinking a glass of water at breakfast were probably more successful than people who were asked to do 50 sit-ups each day.How can you form a habit in a fast way?Firstly, believing-in-yourself could be the key to developing and keeping habits. If you make up your mind to give up smoking, lose weight or drink less, believe in yourself! And you will make it.Secondly, the way a person makes a goal more attractive can also be important. If the process of building your habit doesn’t have any reward, you are unlikely to stick to your goals.Then, scientists also advised asking the process as easy as possible. For example, if the goal is to go to the gym three times a week, a person should pick a gym near his home.16. How does the writer introduce the topic?A. By telling a story.B. By giving some facts.C.

LANGUAGECIn October 2023, three Mediterranean fruit flies were discovered in Leimert Park, California. This was serious news for farmers in California, a big farming state. The solution to the problem seems a little unusual: freeing millions more of the flies.The Mediterranean fruit fly, known as the “Medfly”, is one of the most serious dangers to farmers worldwide. Once the flies make their way into an area, it can be very hard for farmers to drive them away.The flies lay their eggs in over 300 kinds of fruits and vegetables. When the eggs hatch, they turn into worm-like larvae that can destroy these products. However, it can be hard to know that the flies are there until it’s too late.The fruits and vegetables still look normal even after the eggs are laid inside. So the damaged fruits and vegetables can be sent to other places, allowing the Medflies to spread.To stop the problem from spreading, the government build a large quarantine area, which means that no farm products can be moved out of that area. Luckily, California has developed a program to control Medflies. The plan includes using planes to drop millions of Medflies over the area. In fact, they only drop male flies, and all of them have been treated so that they can’t help produce new fruit flies. The males are sterile. This means that even though they can mate with female fruit flies, the eggs produced will never grow or hatch.The plan may sound like a bad idea at first, but it can surely make Medfly numbers fall.21. What does the underlined word “This” refer to?A. The farming in California.B. The reason for freeing the flies.C. The solution to the fruit fly problem.D. The discovery of Medflies in California.22. What danger can the Medflies cause for farmers?A. Producing harmful waste.B. Bringing diseases to farmers.C. Damaging farm products badly.D. Attracting more Medflies to the fields.23. Which question of the following does Paragraph 4 mainly answer?A. How do Medflies lay eggs?B. Where do Medflies spread?C. When do Medflies lay eggs?D. Why is it hard to find Medflies?24. How does California control the Medflies?A. By producing new fruit flies.B. By moving out the female Medflies.C. By dropping sterile male Medflies.D. By building an area to keep Medflies25. What’s the best title for the passage?A. Finding a Way to Grow CropsB. Fighting Fruit Flies with Fruit FliesC. Stopping a Health Problem from SpreadingD. Developing a Program to Produce More Fruits第二节 补全信息，请阅读下面的短文，并从下列的六个句子中选择五个还原到原文中，使原文的意思完整、连贯。 (共 5小，每小题 2分)The Olympic Games, which date back to ancient Greece, have a long history.
