Mindfulness Matters
In recent years, some schools have begun to introduce meditation, or mindfulness training, into their classrooms. During mindfulness training, students may be asked to sit quietly and observe their own thoughts and feelings to avoid being controlled by them. Mindfulness training can help students overcome anxiety (焦虑), control their behavior, and improve their ability to pay attention in class. Students are expected to learn how to meditate in order to reduce stress and do better in their schoolwork.
Among schools that already teach meditation, the results have been positive. In one study, teachers reported that after five weeks of mindfulness practice, their students were more focused. They also participated more fully in class. A middle school in San Francisco reported that a student meditation program led to higher attendance rates and better grades. Another study suggested that meditation helped students perform better on tests by improving their working memory and reducing their anxiety.
Many supporters believe that meditation training programs can also help students overcome stress. For example, Headstand is a mindfulness education program designed to help students overcome anxiety. A study concluded that ninety-eight percent of participating students felt less stressed after they completed the Headstand program. In another study, researchers in New Haven, Connecticut, followed students who participated in meditation and yoga classes three times a week. They found that after each class, participants had lower levels of cortisol, a stress hormone (激素), in their bodies.
Despite the positive results seen so far, critics also point out that much of the current research is not rigorous(严谨的) enough. Associate Professor Tamar Mendelson agrees that research on meditation in children is still in its early stages. However, even she insists that she has seen the positive impact of meditation on children. Others express worries that meditation is not a valuable use of class time. But many disagree. Denise Pope, a professor from the Stanford University, says, “This is something teachers can do immediately. You get a lot of bang for your buck and anyone who is against it isn’t thinking clearly.” Indeed, additional studies will surely strengthen our understanding of the benefits of mindfulness.
Although still in its early stages, research shows that meditation can help students learn to deal with anxiety and stress. As an added bonus, students of mindfulness training also report better concentration and gains in their academic performances. Therefore, meditation should be a part of every student’s school day. Participating in “stillness” can be just as productive as other school-related activities.
1.Why do some schools introduce mindfulness training into classes?
A.To control students’ working memory.
B.To reduce students’ stress and anxiety.
C.To increase students’ attendance rates.
D.To research students’ thoughts and feelings.
2.What can we learn from the passage?
A.Mindfulness training is not a valuable use of class time at school.
B.Mindfulness training is more productive than other school activities.
C.Students felt more stressful after joining yoga classes three times a week.
D.Students paid closer attention in class after weeks of mindfulness practice.
3.The words “a lot of bang for your buck” in Paragraph 4 probably mean “_____”.
A.challenges B.complaints C.advantages D.influences
4.The writer probably agrees that ______.
A.further studies will prove the benefits of mindfulness training
B.students will become more talented with mindfulness training
C.doctors will do researches on the spread of mindfulness training
D.mindfulness training decides students’ mental and physical health

Choose the best answer (根据短文内容,选择最恰当的答案)
Lisa has been to Antarctica (南极洲). Here is what she wrote about the trip.
Tuesday December 2 We planned to go to Rothera (罗瑟拉站) that morning. We would stay there for the next two weeks. Because Antarctica is the windiest place on the earth, sometimes you can’t fly at all. We had a nervous wait over breakfast to find out if we’d be leaving that day. People have to stay in Stanley for weeks while the pilots wait for good weather. It turned clear at 9:30 and we took off at 10:30 on a little red plane called a Dash-7. But even when we were in the air, there was still a chance we wouldn’t be able to fly. |
Wednesday December 3 After waking up in Antarctica for the first time, I can understand why everybody who comes here loves the place. It is really beautiful. We are staying at Rothera Survey Base (基地) with mountains of ice all around. It’s about minus 2℃ today. It is very cold, but the regulars here are often seen walking around in T-shirt. |
Thursday December 4 I woke up to another beautiful sunny day here. It’s a bit colder today, about minus 5℃, but it’s not very windy so it feels warmer. Those of us who are new to the base have to do a special training course (课程) before we are allowed to go off the base to other stations or to go snowboarding over the nearby hill. |
Saturday December 6 Not a cloud in the sky and it’s warm enough to sit outside (in a jacket). The most wonderful thing about this place is how the scenery (风景) changes every day. At first I thought I was going mad. I’d step outside in the morning and think, “I’m sure that big mountain of ice wasn’t there every day.” It’s because the sea ice is always moving—slowly and thankfully. |
1.Lisa had a nervous wait in Stanley because of _____________.
A.Strong winds B.Thick clouds
C.Mountain of ice D.Low temperature
2.Lisa received a special training on ___________.
A.December 2 B.December 3 C.December 4 D.December 6
3.The underlined word “go off” most probably means__________.
A.leave B.change C.protect D.build
4.What impressed (使…印象深刻) Lisa most about Antarctica?
A.People walked around in T-shirt B.It was a beautiful and quiet place
C.The weather was sometimes warm D.The scenery changes every day
5.According to the article, which of the following sentences is Not True?
A.Lisa will stay in Rothera Survey Base for about two weeks.
B.Lisa often sees the people wearing the thick jackets in the base.
C.Lisa can go snowboarding if she finishes the training course.
D.Lisa didn’t expect that the mountains of ice could move at first.
6.The writing is most probably from Lisa’s __________.
A.notebook B.diary C.homework D.book
