(生活充滿了無數的勝利和失敗，但重要的是你如何處理每一種情況。也許這是你的愛情生活或一個嚴肅的生活斗爭，我們必須學會繼續(xù)前進。)”可知，此處強調無論生活怎樣，我們都要學會繼續(xù)前進，因此設空處應該引出后文，針對開啟生活新篇章提出的具體建議或措施。D選項“Here’showyoucancreateanewchapterinyourlife.(以下是你如何在生活中開創(chuàng)新篇章的方法。)”承上啟下，符合語境。故選D。【17題】根據后文“Thislinewillhelpyoumarkyourfuturedecisions.(這條線將幫助你標記你未來的決定。)”此處指出這條線將會標記你未來的決定，設空處應該對“thisline”進行闡述。E選項“Whatyoucandointhiskindofsituationisdrawamentalline.(在這種情況下，你能做的就是在心里劃清界限。)”指出，面對各種問題，自己應該在心里劃清界限，此處與后文呼應，符合語境。故選E。【18題】設空處為段旨，也為本段的小標題。根據后文“Inordertogetoutofthissituation,youmustbewillingtobringothersintothestruggle.Whenwetalkaboutothers,Irefertothepeoplethatyouareclosewith.Thesecouldbeyourfamilyandclosefriends.(為了擺脫這種局面，你必須愿意把別人拉進斗爭中。當我們談論別人時，我指的是你親近的人。這些人可能是你的家人和親密的朋友。)”可知，此處強調遇到問題可以向尋求他人的幫助。A選項“Seekhelpfromothers.(向別人尋求幫助。)”概括本段段旨，符合語境。故選A。【19題】根據前文“Sometimeswemightfeelthatwehavetriedoutsomuchandstillnothingisworkingoutforus.IknowthatsituationasIhavebeenthere.

(有時我們可能會覺得我們已經嘗試了這么多，但仍然沒有什么對我們起作用。我了解那種情況，因為我也經歷過。)”可知，有時候我們已經盡全力嘗試了很多，但依舊沒有對我們起作用。G選項“Iwouldsaythisonethingtoyou,givingupiseasy,butcontinuingwiththepainishardbutworthit.(我會對你說這樣一句話：放棄很容易，但堅持下去，盡管伴隨著痛苦，是艱難卻值得的。)”指出，在前文所提及的“盡全力嘗試但依舊沒有起作用”情況下，放棄是很容易，但堅持下去，盡管伴隨著痛苦，是艱難卻值得的，鼓勵讀者即使面對困難也不要放棄，因為堅持雖然艱難但值得，符合語境。故選G。【20題】根據前文“Inordertomoveonfromeverystruggleandheartbreak,youmustletgoofthepast,guilt,andhatred.

(為了從每一次掙扎和心碎中走出來，你必須放下過去、內疚和仇恨。)”此處指出必須要放下過去、內疚和仇恨，后文對此做法的原因進行解釋。F選項“Nomatterwhat,negativefeelingsarealwaysgoingtobehelpless.(不管怎樣，消極的情緒總是會讓人感到無助。)”指出過去、內疚和仇恨這些消極的情緒讓人感到無助，因此必須要放下。故選F。三、完形填空Recyclingcanbenefitnotonlyenvironmentalconservationbutalsocommunityinsurprisingways.MateoLange,15,is___21___ofthiswell.Onweekends,hewouldsortthroughglassandplasticbottlesandaluminum(鋁)cansinhishometown,IndianRiver,Michigan,wherehe___22___acommunityrecyclingprogram.Mateoinitiatedtheprogramwhenhewasinthesixthgrade,playingbaseballwiththeNorthernMichiganCyclones.Theteamwas___23___fromitsestablishmentandfacedthechallengeofraisingmoneyfortheirtraveltotournaments.ObservingcansandbottlesthrowneverywherealongMichigan’sroads,Mateo___24___asolution.InMichigan,thesecansandbottlescanbecollectedandexchangedforcash.___25___byhisfather’sassistance,Mateostartedabottleandcandriveanditraised$7,500inamerefewweeks.This___26___successinspiredMateotokeeptheendeavorgoing.Sincethen,Mateo’srecyclingefforthasobtainedanimpressive$350,000,___27___atleast50localyouthgroups.Equally___28___,over2millionbottlesandcansotherwise___29___ontheroadsidewererecycled.In2023,Mateowas____30____forhisdeedsandwontheprestigiousGloriaBarronPrizeforYoungHeroes,anhonor____31____theeffortsofyoungindividualsstrivingtomaketheworldabetterplace.Whenaskedabouttheaccomplishment,Mateosaid,“Iamhappytoknowthatalltheseteamsandclubsandthecommunitiesaroundare____32____.”Mateobelieveseveryonecanandshouldbeof____33____.“Justdoalittlebittomakeadifferencetotheworld,”he____34____.“Becreative,”headds.“Havean____35____andbuildonit.”21.A.frightened
