With the summer heat finally arriving in the UK, it’s the perfect time for barbeques. Grant Harrold, a former royal butler (男管家), has revealed just how to dress to impress, how to divide up tasks, and exactly how to make your guests feel special.
11 He recommends never using plastic or paper napkins if you’re looking to impress your guests. “When it comes to cutlery and earthenware, I would always think you should use the best of what you have. These days, plastic is not acceptable. It’s best to go back to having china and cutlery out,” he explained.
“You can always find second-hand cutlery and china if you don’t want to use your finest china, but why not impress your guests Let’s avoid paper napkins if you can. 12 ”
Although it’s not usually necessary to dress in “white or black tie” for these types of events, Grant suggests that it is usually better to “overdress than underdress”, adding that if you’re hosting you can add a dress code to invitations. 13
Grant talks a lot about who takes charge of the BBQ. He says, “Traditionally, it was always the man in charge. 14 . In recent years, despite the modern world we live in, it still seems to be the norm. The roles have to be divided, and it’s probably fair that the person who is best at cooking should be in charge of the BBQ, while the person who is best at setting the table, and prepping that sort of thing, should take on those responsibilities.”

A．The ladies took charge of the table settings.
B．Grant suggests dressing casually for a more relaxed atmosphere.
C．Grant points out we should follow some social rules in BBQ.
D．Grant explains exactly what to “avoid” during a BBQ.

The Money-Draining Mistakes Travelers Make
Planning a low-cost trip You don’t have to give up comfort or safety! Travel experts say we can have great trips without spending too much, only if you let go of the luxury (奢華的) travel posts you keep seeing on social media. 26
Chasing dream destinations
Going to your dream place might empty your wallet. Instead, find cheaper places to visit. For example, if Paris is too expensive, try Montreal. 27 Similarly, visiting New York’s Finger Lakes instead of Napa Valley saves money on hotels and wine tastings. Focus on experiences, not just the destination!
28
Travel prices vary by season. Flying during off-peak times, like winter, can save money. For example, visiting Santorini in winter saved one family $500 per person compared to summer prices. Also, avoid flying on weekends—Sundays and Mondays are pricier because of business travelers. Being flexible with dates helps you save!
Assuming vacation rentals are cheaper
29 Actually, prices for vacation rentals like Airbnb or VRBO have risen, sometimes costing more than hotels. Budget hotels and hostels can be better deals. Some hostels even have game rooms for kids. Another option is house-sitting or swapping—you can stay for free by caring for someone’s home.
Staying in the city center
Staying in busy tourist areas like Times Square or Hollywood can cost more. Instead, try neighborhoods outside the city center. In New York, dining in the Bronx costs less than in Manhattan. In Paris, visiting St. Ouen’s antique markets is free and fun. Avoiding the city center saves money and offers authentic experiences!
Remember, travel is about enjoying new places, not matching fancy social media posts. 30 By doing so, your wallet will surely thank you!
A．Traveling with family.
B．Booking specific dates.
C．Travel smarter, not harder.
D．Comparison is the thief of joy.
E．A flight from New York to Paris costs more, than one to Montreal.
F．Avoid the following common mistakes to save money and still enjoy your trip!
G．Travelers often assume that a vacation rental will be more affordable than a hotel.

Be real. People are bored with those who are always trying to be someone they are not. People are most comfortable around others who are comfortable in their own skin. 31 Even though you aren’t perfect, the way you handle your strengths and faults with humility (謙遜) and confidence will give other people permission to be real and relaxed with you, as well.
Be honest. Lies always have a way of coming to light. Try to be honest with everyone around you. An honest person is usually reliable, and people tend to make friends with honest ones. Nobody wants to be friends with someone who lies. 32
Be a good listener. 33 In most cases, people need more than good advice. They need someone to listen to them as they talk about their feelings. Ask them what’s going on in their life and how they feel.
Make time for your friends. Time is one of the greatest gifts we have. When we share extra time with friends, we are giving that gift back to them. 34 It takes time. A real friend will take that time.

How to Beat the Winter Blues
If colder weather and shorter days cause you to feel the winter blues, you’re not alone. 36 The good news There are things you can do to beat the winter blues.
Do some physical activity. Physical activity has been shown to decrease the symptoms (癥狀) of sadness and reduce stress. Start slowly and build up to 30 to 60 minutes a day, five days a week, of various fitness-related activities. 37 Maybe you can break the time up into chunks (塊) instead of focusing on one longer exercise. For example, if your goal is to walk 30 minutes a day, divide the time into three mini-tasks of 10 minutes each.
Call on your support system. Loneliness will make the effects of the winter blues worse. That’s why your friends, family and co-workers should be on speed dial. “It is human contact that is important to our mental health.” Gaveras, a chief psychiatrist says. And when you are dealing with the winter blues, finding a way to spend time with supportive people is key to improving your mood. 38
39 Getting outside needs to be a top consideration during the winter months. Since winter blues are worsened by a lack of sun exposure, soaking up the sun — even in winter temperatures — is of great importance. Being in the sunlight helps increase melatonin (褪黑素) production and vitamin D levels, which can lead to an improved emotional state. 40 You can spend more time in sunlight there and get some beneficial effects, including decreases in nervousness, confusion and annoyance.
A．Enjoy the warm sunlight outside.
B．Try eating healthy foods to improve your mood.
C．If you fail to get outdoors, move a chair next to an open window.

When you know that you'll be done with lectures soon, your mind will stay focused and excited about the relaxation that follows. 45
If you find yourself struggling with the amount of work you have, turn to your professor immediately for help. American professors have office hours when students can come ask questions and get help.

Keeping Fit
Exercise helps students stay in good shape. For example, running is a great way to make our legs stronger. 51 . Also, playing basketball is beneficial for our hearts.

Exercise is not just good for our bodies but also for our emotions. When we are anxious about tests, going for a walk can relieve our nerves. 53 . Exercise also boosts our energy levels. After a workout, we feel more refreshed and are better able to focus in class, clearly remembering what the teacher says.
Making Friends
Exercise is an excellent way to make friends. Team sports like football are prime examples. In a football team, we cooperate with teammates by passing the ball, strategizing together, and cheering each other on. This not only improves our teamwork skills but also boosts our self-confidence. Joining a sports club is a wonderful option. We can meet like-minded students who share the same passion for sports. 54 .

In higher education, 21st-century librarians are seeing a redefinition of their roles. Universities are also taking a new look at library buildings. But whether their purpose is to host an creativity workshop or old-fashioned bookshelves, one thing is clear: 56 .
Libraries meet students’ new needs, digitally
To support modern research, libraries will need to offer students access to the digital versions of scholarly (學術) research, much of which now includes complex data sets and visualization (可視化內容). Ringling College of Art and Design set out to create a library that would better provide its students with the services they actually need. 57 .
Easily adjustable workspaces promote cooperation
58 . Most commonly, universities are redesigning libraries to make them suitable for cooperation — meaning open, social spaces where small and large groups can gather and share materials. For example, Norwich University in Vermont sought to create more high-tech collaboration spaces in its library by designing 11 group study rooms that have movable furniture.
Modern libraries need digitally informed librarians
In today’s university culture, librarians are of great importance to ensuring students have a solid understanding of the digital resources they are using for academic work. 59 . Changes of this kind are also influencing the way that universities teach the next generation of librarians. At the University of Michigan, a new library science program will create education models that help future librarians complete the difficult tasks of supporting researchers.
Digital tools give libraries staying power
60 . However, the long-term existence of university libraries is assured. By embracing digital tools and creating adjustable spaces, libraries will continue to be connected with colleges. In fact, the new-generation libraries of tomorrow are likely to be much more effective in serving students’ quests for knowledge and understanding.

In modern society, the issues of sleep and weight are increasingly noticeable. People struggle to stay fit and well-rested, and researchers are exploring their link. 61 .
Sleep plays a vital role in regulating our body’s internal systems. When we sleep, our body undergoes various processes that impact our metabolism (新陳代謝). 62 Hormones (荷爾蒙) controlling fullness and appetite are influenced by sleep quality and quantity. Lack of sleep breaks this hormonal balance, increasing appetite and calorie intake.
Many studies show that individuals who lack sleep are more likely to gain weight. 63 Firstly, the hormonal imbalance makes people hungrier. Secondly, sleep shortage slows down metabolism, so the body burns fewer calories at rest, storing extra energy as fat. Thirdly, it reduces motivation for exercise, contributing to weight gain.
64 . Proper sleep can help restore the body’s hormonal balance. It helps to regulate appetite-related hormones, preventing overeating. A well-rested body has a more efficient metabolism. Additionally, when we are well-slept, we are more likely to have the energy and motivation to exercise regularly, which is an important part of maintaining a healthy weight.
To improve sleep for weight control, there are several things you can do. 65 Secondly, establish a regular sleep schedule by going to bed and waking up at the same time every day. Then, avoid using electronic devices before bedtime as the blue light can interfere with your sleep. And try to manage stress, as high levels of stress can mess up your sleep patterns.
A．There are several reasons for this.
B．Our body needs sleep to repair and renew itself.
C．The first step is to create a comfortable sleep environment.
D．Here’s what we’ve known so far about how they are connected.
E．For example, a regular sleep schedule can improve sleep quality.
F．On the contrary, getting enough good-quality sleep aids weight management.
G．It is not only important for our physical health but also for our mental well-being.

How to make small talk
Sometimes, people say that small talk is awkward and shallow (膚淺的). 86 , the other person will focus on the more interesting parts of your conversation rather than the small talk itself. There are four tips that’ll help you make small talk in any situation.

·Listen first
In social situations, one way to show you’re offering your full attention is to listen in an engaged (投入的) way. When you’re listening, show you’re paying attention by practicing nonverbal cues (非語言暗示) like nodding and making eye contact with the speaker. 88 . For example, if someone tells you, “Wow, I haven’t seen you in three years,” repeat back, “Three years Has it been that long ” This shows you’re actively listening.
· 89
When you ask about the person you’re speaking to, ask open-ended questions. For example, “How have things been ” is a better question than “Have you been alright ” The latter requires a simple yes or no response, while the former draws out information in a conversational way.
·Respond enthusiastically
When someone tells you something in a small talk conversation, respond enthusiastically (熱情地). Your positivity shows you’re paying attention and also makes them feel valued and respected. 90 .
A．Be open-minded
B．Ask open questions
C．But if you do it successfully

E．It’s also a good active listening practice to repeat what someone just told you
F．If you view these conversations as opportunities to learn

1．上文“It’s nearly impossible to meet everyone’s expectations. Whatever you do, and no matter how hard you try, there will always be some individuals who dislike you. There are often times you can overlook them and go on with your routine. Nevertheless, sometimes someone’s unfavorable attitude towards you could have an influence on your grades and your ability to interact with others.(讓每個人都滿意是幾乎不可能。無論你做什么，無論你多么努力，總會有一些人不喜歡你。很多時候你可以忽略它們，繼續你的生活。然而，有時候，一個人對你的負面情緒可能會影響你的成績或你與他人相處的能力)”結合后文主要介紹了一些可以幫助你應對別人對你的負面情緒的方法?？仗幒颓拔臑轫樈雨P系，說明面對這種情況應該采取措施應對。所以G項“在這種情況下，你需要采取某些措施來應對這種情況。”符合語境，“such cases”指代上文“負面態度產生影響”的情形，且引出下文的解決方法，與前文為順接關系。故選G。
2．下文“That means instead of saying “Why don’t you like me ” say something like “I sense that there is a bit of tension between us. Is there anything I have done or anything I can do to help ”(這意味著不要說“你為什么不喜歡我 ”，你可以這樣說:“我覺得我們之間有些緊張。我做了什么或者我能幫上什么忙嗎 ”)”強調以“自我感受”為中心的表達方法?？仗幰鱿挛闹械倪@種表達方法。所以B選項“試著用“I - phrases”來表達你的想法，這能關注到你的感受?！狈险Z境，且“I-phrases”對應下文“I sense that there is a bit of tension between us. Is there anything I have done or anything I can do to help ”具體表述。故選B。
3．下文“If you’ve done something to hurt or offend someone and that is the reason for which the person dislikes you, the best course of action is to try to make it right. Clearly say the words, “I’m sorry.” Be sure not to say “I’m sorry you were offended.” or “I’m sorry you felt that way.”or anything else that places the blame on (歸咎于) the other person for misunderstanding your intentions.(如果你做了一些傷害或冒犯別人的事情，而這正是那個人不喜歡你的原因，那么最好的做法就是努力糾正它。清楚地說：“對不起。”一定不要說“很抱歉冒犯了你”?；蛘摺拔液鼙改隳菢酉?。”或者其他任何將責任歸咎于他人誤解你的意圖的話語)”說明本段主要介紹了道歉和糾正錯誤?？仗帪槎温湫祟}，需概括全段內容。所以C項“道歉并糾正錯誤。”點明段落核心，與后文“say the words, “I’m sorry.” ”以及“make it right”形成原詞復現。故選C。
4．上文“Be sure not to say “I’m sorry you were offended.” or “I’m sorry you felt that way.” or anything else that places the blame on the other person for misunderstanding your intentions.(一定不要說“很抱歉冒犯了你”。或者“我很抱歉你那樣想。”或者其他任何將責任歸咎于他人誤解你的意圖的話語)”指出道歉時不要把責任歸咎于對方，由此推知空處應指出正確的道歉方式，F選項“相反，要謙虛，承認你傷害了別人的事實?！狈险Z境。故選F。
5．下文“Importantly, you have to choose not to allow the person who dislikes you to influence you or get you down. It is OK to be disliked. Remember that even the most popular and well-loved celebrities are disliked by some people!(重要的是，你必須選擇不讓不喜歡你的人影響你或讓你失望。被人討厭也沒關系。請記住，即使是最受歡迎和最受歡迎的名人也會被一些人不喜歡!)”強調不要被別人的不喜歡所影響?？仗幒秃笪臑轫樈雨P系，說明不要太在意別人的看法。所以D選項“最終，別人對你的看法并不重要?！狈险Z境，且“others think about you.”對應后文“the person who dislikes you”。故選D。

The world has always been changing and cultures have always been adapting to that change(事實上，文化幫助人們適應周圍的世界。世界一直在變化，文化也一直在適應這種變化)”，說明文化需要適應變化。選項B“but that doesn’t mean that all change is bad.(但這并不意味著所有的變化都是壞事)”，起到了轉折和銜接的作用，既承認了文化保護有挑戰，又引出了文化需要適應變化的觀點，故選B。
