1. 阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

As is the case with many of life's blessings, our visual acuity is often regarded with a sense of complacency until it commences to present us with challenges.  It is only when we encounter impediments in perusing the daily publications and begin to suffer from cephalalgias that we start to question the prudence of our nocturnal vigils spent before the luminous screens of our computers. .

Eat well.  What you eat has a great impact on your eyes.  You'd better have a balanced diet, which includes plenty of fish and leafy green vegetables, fruits, nuts, and eggs.  These contain nutrients such as vitamins C and E.   A healthy diet also helps prevent obesity and diabetes, which may affect your eye health badly. 

Take care of our glasses.  If you have been donning ocular appliances since your formative years, it is likely that you received instruction on their proper maintenance.  However, as time has passed, you may have become somewhat remiss and have ceased to diligently adhere to the practices of preserving the condition and functionality of your spectacles.  Employ a delicate, cottonen textile to meticulously cleanse the ocular lenses on a daily basis, ensuring the removal of any surface debris and smudges.  Additionally, it is prudent to submerge the spectacles in a tepid aqueous solution infused with a mild detergent biweekly to eliminate microbial colonies that may have accumulated.  When placing them in repose, ensure that the lenses are oriented skyward to prevent any inadvertent compression that could lead to deformation or scratching.  Consistently repose them within a robust protective enclosure during periods of disuse to shield them from potential damage. 

 You already know this one, but it bears repeating — stop staring at your computer screen or TV all the time.  You need to take short breaks every half an hour, just a minute of looking away, or closing your eyes. 

Wear sunglasses.  Sunglasses can make you look pretty cool.   Find sunglasses that are stylish and comfortable and keep them close by at all time during summer. 

A. And that's a mistake. 

B. Don't overuse your eyes. 

C. They are essential for eye health. 

D. Have your eyes checked regularly. 

E. Wearing fancy sunglasses is thought to be a good choice. 

F. They can also protect your eyes from the glare of the sun. 

G. Follow the following suggestions to keep your eyes healthy.

1. ​​​​​​​A Beginner's Guide to Rehearse (排练) Presentations

Delivering presentations is an everyday art form that anyone can master. Act as if you are in a conversation with your audience, and they will pay attention to you. Here are some tips to help you practice with efficiency.

Don't wait until it's perfect.

Find a friend, colleague, or mentor who you trust to give you constructive feedback. That way, they can give you tips not just on your delivery, but on the organization of your content as well. You can start by asking them to point out moments that are dull or confusing.

Prepare for nerves.

What exactly worries you when you give a speech? Looking foolish? Forgetting lines? For instance, if your fear is, "I'll forget what I'm saying," you can prepare a plan like, "If it really happens, I'll pause, scan my notes, and find the next important point I need to make."

Time yourself carefully.

You don't want to go over your time frame and get cut off, or wear on the patience of your audience. Time your rehearsals, especially those you give in front of others, to see that you are staying within the time you have.

Practice repeatedly with flexibility.

This doesn't mean sticking to a strict script every time. Instead, when you rehearse, improvise freely. Deliver your main points, but include quips (俏皮话) and anecdotes that occur to you as you go. You'll remember the best ones when you actually deliver the presentation.

A. To get this level of fluency, practice is the key.

B. Know your presentation backward and forward.

C. You don't have to wait until it's perfect to show them.

D. These thoughts are the ones that are holding you back on stage.

E. Rely on memorising every word of your speech exactly as written.

F. Set aside some extra time if you plan to answer questions from the audience.

G. Write down your fears, and then think about what you will do in each situation.

2. ​​​​​​​Can you imagine taking your house apart, piece by piece, and putting it back together again every time you move to a new location? That's just what many families in Mongolia do, as often as three or four times a year.

In small groups of two to six households, Mongolian nomads (游牧民) traditionally travel from grassland to grassland. However, all this moving would be much more difficult without a round, portable tent called a ger. Members of a Mongolian family can take a ger apart in less than an hour. Then they load the pieces on the backs of camels or on an animal-drawn cart, an SUV, or a small truck.

Nomads treat the ger's entrance with respect. Instead, they shout, "Nokhoi khor!", which means "Hold your dog!" Traditionally, relatives, friends, and even strangers may drop in at any time. The family always keeps a bowl of dried cheese balls and other treats ready for guests.

Although some of their details have changed through the years, gers have sheltered Mongolians since the time of Genghis Khan. Their core design has remained largely unchanged for centuries. Nowadays, even some permanent town residents live in gers. For instance, rapid urbanization and climate change have led to a decrease in grassland, making it increasingly difficult for nomadic families to sustain their herding lifestyle.

Nevertheless, the round white ger remains the symbol of home, warmth, and hospitality in Mongolia.

A. It takes about an hour to put the house back together.

B. Visitors never knock on the colorfully decorated door.

C. Today, the future of the nomadic way of life is uncertain.

D. This makes sure their herds will have enough grass to feed on.

E. Many nomads rely on traditional skills to fit together gers quickly.

F. Meanwhile, the lifestyle centering on the ger has faced increased threats.

G. This reflects their belief that the fire place, vital for survival, deserves great respect.
