「2025黑龙江齐齐哈尔中考改编」
①Have you ever made New Year’s resolutions before? According to a survey, 27% of the teenagers set themselves one or more New Year’s resolutions at the start of the year, especially in January. Is January the right time to set New Year’s resolutions? (1)
②Some think January is a better time because it’s a fun tradition to discuss New Year’s resolutions with their family and friends at the start of the year. If you all set (A)
them at different times, you won’t have the same topic (话题) with others. (2) Besides, the more you put it off, the less possible it is that you’ll decide what you really want to do. By the time you’ve decided, you’ll have less time to achieve your goals.
③However, others have different ideas. They think January is always a cold and dark month when teenagers just want to stay indoors. (3) What’s more, they should make resolutions any time they want. If they wait a bit longer, they’ll have a better idea of what they want to do. One study showed that by the end of January, 20% of the teenagers had failed to stick to their resolutions. So if they are given more time, they won’t get discouraged or give up.
④All in all, whether you make resolutions in
January or later, please remember they help to make you a better person and to make your life easier. So just be brave to make and keep them!
