【题目】Living in a green area can make you live longer,according to research published today. The research also shows that the difference in life expectancy (预期寿命) between rich and poor becomes smaller among those who live in an environment with parks and trees.
Richard Mitchell,from Glasgow University,and his colleagues, found that the gap between the number of deaths of people on high incomes and the number of deaths of those on low incomes in green areas was half that compared with figures relating to built-up areas.
Green spaces,classified by the researchers as “open,undeveloped land with natural vegetation”,encouraged people to walk and be more active. Exercise in these settings could have greater benefits than exercise elsewhere,the researchers said.
The benefits potentially go beyond exercise. Studies have shown that being around green spaces can reduce blood pressure and stress levels,and possibly help patients recover faster.
A number of researchers have looked at the effects of greenery on our wellbeing. But few studies had looked at whether living in green areas reduced health inequalities,the Glasgow team said.
Using information from a landuse database of 2001,the researchers divided the preretirement population of England into four groups according to income level,and five groups according to access to green space. They then looked at death rate for 2001~2005.
They found that the inequality in death rate from all causes relating to lack of money was less in those populations in the greenest areas compared with the figures for people living in more built-up places. They found an even stronger relationship when it came to deaths from certain diseases such as heart conditions and stroke (中风).There was no difference,however,in deaths from lung cancer.
The researchers said that changing the physical environment was an easier way to fight against poor health than using media campaigns or giving out information on health. “The result of the study is clear:Environments that promote good health might be very important in the fight to reduce health inequalities.”

A.the gap

A.They offered a scientific definition of “green spaces”.
B.They encouraged people to exercise in green areas.

【3】What advice would the researchers probably give according to the last paragraph?
A.More health information should be given to the public.
B.People should take more exercise every day.
C.More trees and grass should be planted in cities.
D.People should help to fight against health problems.

【题目】In my profession as an educator and health care provider, I have worked with numerous children infected with the virus that causes AIDS. The relationships that I have had with these special kids have been gifts in my life. They have taught me so many things, but I have especially learned that great courage can be found in the smallest of packages. Let me tell you about Tyler.
Tyler was born infected with HIV: his mother was also infected. From the very beginning of his life, he was dependent on medications to enable him to survive. When he was five, he had a tube surgically inserted in a vein in his chest. This tube was connected to a pump, which he carried in a small backpack on his back. Medications were hooked up to this pump and were continuously supplied through this tube to his bloodstream. At times, he also needed supplemented oxygen to support his breathing.
Tyler wasn't willing to give up one single moment of his childhood to this deadly disease. It was not unusual to find him playing and racing around his backyard, wearing his medicine-laden backpack and dragging his tank of oxygen behind him in his little wagon. All of us who knew Tyler marveled at his pure joy in being alive and the energy it gave him. Tyler's mom often teased him by telling him that he moved so fast that she needed to dress him in red. That way, when she peered through the window to check on him playing in the yard, she could quickly spot him.
This dreaded disease eventually wore down even the likes of a little dynamo like Tyler. He grew quite ill and, unfortunately, so did his HIV-infected mother. When it became apparent that he wasn't going to survive, Tyler's mom talked to him about death. She comforted him by telling Tyler that she was dying too, and that she would be with him soon in heaven.
A few days before his death, Tyler beckoned me over to his hospital bed and whispered, "l might die soon. I'm not scared. When I die, please dress me in red. Mom promised she's coming to heaven, too. I'll be playing when she gets there, and I want to make sure she can find me."
【1】 What is the boy Tyler's attitude towards death?
A. Pessimistic.
B. Optimistic.
C. Sorrowful.
D. Fearful.
【2】 Tyler requested the writer to dress him in red when he died simply because __________.
A. red is a lucky color
B. red might help to cure him
C. his mom could spot him easily
D. he could find more mates by wearing red
【3】 Which of the following might serve as a possible title for this passage?
A. My Unusual Profession
B. A Caring Mother
C. Mother and Son
D. Dying in Red
【4】 The underlined word "dynamo" in the fourth paragraph here means "__________".
