Our lives are based on self-worth. 1(). However, what you do, what you achieve, and how people see you cannot decide your value. The reality is that you are a worthy person simply because you exist. Here are three habits to help improve your self-worth.
• Keep promises to yourself. Each thing you promise to yourself gives you a chance to either build or reduce your self-worth. For example, if you skip a planned workout, you are not keeping a promise to yourself. You are sending yourself an extremely strong signal that your well-being isn’t worth the effort. 2().
• Do something challenging regularly. 3(). Whenever you achieve something tough, you are telling yourself that you are powerful and worthy of respect. In this way, you are improving your self-worth. You prove to yourself again and again that you deserve the best because of what you know you’re capable of.
• 4(). How you treat yourself matters most. Many people have no problem showing up 100 percent when someone they love needs help, yet hesitate when it comes to themselves. 5(). By doing so, you not only give yourself the care you deserve but also raise your self-worth.
A. Seek others’ help directly
B. Step forward for yourself
C. Self-worth is earned through daily actions
D. Self-respect and self-worth are closely related
E. Thus, keeping your word ensures your self-worth
F. Most individuals assume self-worth relies on their achievements
G. Instead, you should care for yourself as much as you care for others

语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章指出自我价值感源于人本身而非其成就,还介绍了信守对自己的承诺、常做有挑战的事、善待自己三个提升自我价值感的方法。
1. F 由上文“Our lives are based on self-worth.”和下文“However, what you do, what you achieve, and how people see you cannot decide your value.”可知,空格处需指出人们对自我价值感的普遍错误认知,从而与后文形成转折。F项(大多数人认为自我价值感源于取得的成就。)符合语境。故选F。
2. E 由上文“For example, if you skip a planned workout, you are not keeping a promise to yourself. You are sending yourself an extremely strong signal that your well-being isn’t worth the effort.”可知,空格处需总结前文,点明遵守对自己的承诺对自我价值感的重要性。E项(因此,信守对自己的承诺赋予你自我价值感。)契合本段核心主题,逻辑清晰。故选E。
3. C 由下文“Whenever you achieve something tough, you are telling yourself that you are powerful and worthy of respect. In this way, you are improving your self-worth.”可知,空格处需引出本段核心,说明经常做有挑战的事与自我价值感的关联,或总述该做法的作用。C项(自我价值感是通过日常行动获得的。)符合语境。故选C。
4. B 由下文“How you treat yourself matters most. Many people have no problem showing up 100 percent when someone they love needs help, yet hesitate when it comes to themselves.”可知,空格处需作为本段主题句,概括“主动善待自己、为自己付出”的核心建议。B项(为自己向前迈步。)符合语境。故选B。
5. G 由上文“Many people have no problem showing up 100 percent when someone they love needs help, yet hesitate when it comes to themselves.”和下文“By doing so, you not only give yourself the care you deserve, but also raise your self-worth.”可知,空格处需给出正确的做法,衔接前文的错误行为与后文的积极结果。G项(相反,你应当像关爱他人那样关爱自己。)符合语境。故选G。
