[2025 宿迁期中]Everyone has moments when life seems too hard. It's natural to feel stressed or feel like giving up. However, if we stop halfway, we'll never reach our goals. 1.
Deal with bad feelings. It's easy to feel helpless when things don't go as expected. But don't worry too much. 2. After that, things may change for the better.
Take it slow and take breaks. Rome was not built in a day, and neither are our goals. To reach your goal, make sure you're well-rested and prepared. 3. When your body and mind are in good condition, you'll be more productive.
4. Are your goals achievable? If not, you're very likely to fail. It's good to dream big, but not everything can be perfect. So, it's better to choose a goal that is right for you.
Get support from others. 5. Reach out to them for advice or support whenever you need it. You'll find that they're always there for you.
A. Set smart goals.
B. Celebrate the small wins.
C. So, how can we avoid giving up easily?
D. Remember, it's okay to tke some time off.
E. Try doing something you enjoy to feel better.
F. Maybe you need to learn more from your teacher.
G. Hard work becomes easier with support from loved ones.

1. C 根据“However, if we stop halfway, we'll never reach our goals.”可知,前文铺垫了“半途而废无法达成目标”的问题,此处需要提出“如何避免轻易放弃”的总起句,引出下文的具体建议。
2. E 本段小标题为“Deal with bad feelings(处理坏情绪).”,后文提到“After that, things may change for the better(之后情况会好转).”,说明此处需要给出缓解坏情绪的具体方法。选项E“尝试做一些你喜欢的事情来让自己感觉好些”呼应主题,承接前文“不要太担心”,给出可操作的行动建议。
3. D 本段小标题为“Take it slow and take breaks(放慢节奏,注意休息).”,后文提到“When your body and mind are in good condition, you'll be more productive(身心状态良好时,你的效率会更高).”,强调休息的重要性。
4. A 后文围绕“目标的可实现性”展开,提到“Are your goals achievable? If not, you're very likely to fail ... choose a goal that is right for you.”,核心是“设定明智的目标”。
5. G 本段小标题为“Get support from others(寻求他人支持).”,后文提到“Reach out to them for advice or support whenever you need it.”,说明此处需要点明“他人支持的作用”。
