to do it”和后句“make a firm decision to do this on a daily basis.”可知，只有想去做一件事情并且下定决心每天去做才能养成习惯。所以设空处应为“如果不想去做，你会找方法去做除了这件事之外的任何事”。这里强调了决心和意志的重要性，故选f项。39答案e解析根据设空处前一句“keep using the notes.”和后一句“.it will take over a month to solidify.”可知，只有不断地提醒自己，花时间去重复做一件事情才能使它成为习惯。故选e项。40答案g解析根据设空处前一句可知，只有长时间去做一件事情，才会使之成为你日常事务的一部分，由此可推测，末句应该是对该句句意的顺承，即在你做一件事之前不必去考虑的事情习惯。故选g项。第三部分语言知识运用(共两节，满分45分)第一节(共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分)阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的a、b、c和d四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。(2017湖北黄冈质检)if
