21、For years, I lived out of a suitcase, ever ready to get on a flight whenever I got a chance. Discovering the world through the eyes of a writer, I diligently added note to every experience, committing it to paper for when memory faded. I was always eager for the next destination.
However, the pandemic brought all my flights of fancy to a sudden halt, as it did for everyone else. With the world locked down for months, the desire for travel in me waned. What place was better than home? But what really was home?
I was born in the costal city of Mumbai. Having lived here for 15 years, there were parts I knew at length and loved, and others beyond my comfort zone, which I hadn’t explored. I decided to become a tourist, seeing the city anew through the eyes of a visitor, rather than my bored ones as a local. I went on a sunset cruise for the first time on a tiny sailboat on the magical Arabian Sea.
But most of the time we spent indoors. The United Nations World Tourism Organization said the biggest challenge of pandemic travel is the uncertainty and the different rules in different countries to obey.
I finally got on a plane to make it to the closest destination possible to us by flight—the sunshine state of Goa, less than an hour away from Mumbai. Putting my toe into soft powdery sand was precious, even after a lifetime or exotic travel. After a week of bliss on the beach, though, I was relieved to be back home.
Ever since, I have made a few short journeys but the travel bug seems to have been put down, at least for now. But even as tourists will be flocking all over as revenge travel takes over, I have realized that there is no place quite like home.
【1】What does the underlined word “waned” mean in paragraph 2?

22、Improving your memory is easier than it sounds. Some people think our memory is static and unchanging.【1】
Focus on it
Many people get caught in multitasking.【2】. Focusing on it is very important because our brains, unlike computers, can’t really think of many things in parallel. Therefore, if you need to memorize something, quit multitasking.
Smell, touch, taste, hear and see it
【3】Need to remember the name of someone you met for the first time? It may help to look into their eyes when you repeat their names and offer handshakes. By doing so, you have engaged four out of five senses.
Make associations
When we learn, we often forget to try and make connections until later on. However, research has shown that memory can be stronger when you make the connection. For instance, think about how two things are related and the memory for both will be enhanced.【4】.
【5】
People often could be caught up in thinking there is a“one size” that fits all learning style for memorizing new material. That’s simply not the case. Some people like to write things down when they are learning something new. Others may benefit more from recording what they are hearing and going back to take more detailed notes.

23、When a new school semester begins, many children fell very bad about it. They feel very nervous about going back to school. According to the experts, it’s totally normal. Transitions(转变) are hard for everyone, 【1】. That’s because routines are healthy for us, and changing into a new one can throw us off.
For parents, it’s really important to know that it’s very normal for their children to have a whole range of feelings about going back to school — from excitement, to anxiety and sadness, to even anger. 【2】. They might have stomachaches or headaches when thinking about returning to school in September. And that’s all normal, too.
One of the best ways to ease into a new routine is to help the children focus on what they are looking forward to, 【3】. It could be one friend they’re excited to see or even the idea of walking to school every day.
【4】. Walking or biking by the school can help. Hanging out with a kid who’s going to be in the same grade is a better way to relieve anxiety.
Getting enough sleep, exercising, and talking to reliable adults and friends are other effective ways to cope with anxiety and negative feelings. 【5】. “If bedtime is now super late, or there is no bedtime, try to move it an hour earlier every night leading up to your first day of school,” said an expert.
