Children today spend less time outdoors than ever before and it may be harmful not only to their physical health, but also to their cognitive (认知的) development.
A year-long study, recently published in the Sciences, found that elementary school children who were exposed to more green space within or directly outside their school showed improved learning and memory. The findings reinforce (加强) that of a recent six-year study on 905 Massachusetts public elementary schools, which found that students in schools that had more “greenness” in their surroundings reported higher scores on standardized testing in English and math. “There is an expanding body of scientific evidence linking the human experience in the natural world to better physical and mental health and improved cognitive abilities,” journalist Richard Louv, co-founder of the Children & Nature Network, said in an email to The Huffington Post. “An increasing number of homeschoolers, nature preschools, independent primary and secondary schools, and forward-thinking public schools are incorporating (并入) nature experience into learning.”
The new study was conducted on more than 2,500 children in second, third and fourth grade at 36 primary schools in Barcelona, Spain. Researchers found that the students who attended schools with more green space showed a 5 percent improvement in the short-term memory that’s critical for reasoning, learning and comprehension. But their inattentiveness decreased slightly.
Spending time outside could have a number of benefits for children beyond improved memory and attention. Another recent study found that adventurous outdoor play such as climbing, rough and tumble (翻筋斗) play, and exploring alone improves children’s physical health while also help them develop creativity and social skills greatly.
Some schools are starting to take notice, creating more space for children to enjoy being in nature, including community gardens, outdoor playgrounds and small parks.
1.What did the study lasting a year find?
A. The cognitive abilities of children today decreased.
B. The findings of another six-year study were incorrect.
C. Being exposed to nature was beneficial to the learning of pupils.
D. Students had higher scores on testing in English and math than before.
2.According to the passage, what can we know about Richard Louv?
A. He discourages students from getting close to nature to gain experience.
B. He is one of the founders of the Children & Nature Network.
C. He conducted the study on 905 Massachusetts public elementary schools.
D. He often contributes articles to The Huffington Post.
3.Spending time in green space may have little effect on children’s __________.
A. inattentiveness B. creativity
C. communication D. learning
4.In which column of a newspaper can you see this article?
A. Entertainment. B. Travel.
C. Parenting. D. Education.

In May, 2014, some Chinese tourists found a Chinese-character message “Ding Jinhao once visited here” on a statue of god in a 3500-year-old Egyptian temple. An angry tourist took the photograph of the scrawl and posted it on social media Sina Weibo. It was quickly spread and there were more than 100,000 comments during two weeks. Later, a 15-year-old Chinese boy was searched out as the person who caved this message. Many netizens expressed their anger and disappointment for the uncivilized behavior. They searched and identified the boy and then posted his personal information including the address and pictures online.
Over the weekend, his school’s website was hacked, and reporters flooded into his home in the city of Nanjing. Besieged by reporters, the child’s mother offered a formal apology for her son’s behavior. “We want to apologize to the Egyptian people and to people who have paid attention to this case across China.” the boy’s mother told the local newspaper.
With China’s economy booming over the past decades, a growing number of the country’s residents have become global tourists. Earlier this month, Chinese Vice Premier Wang Yang addressed: “Uncivilized behavior of some of tourists is giving this country a bad reputation abroad.” The discussion about Chinese quality was carried out on many media.
On the bright side, Egypt government described the damage to the temple as superficial（表面的）and could be restored and they would forgive the boy. While the act of Ding Jinhao symbolizes a national shame, meanwhile, many people concern about the child’s development and wish he could return to anonymity once more. “The boy has known his mistake and cried all night. He has to be moved around because reporters rushes to his house for interviews.” said a reporter who talked with the parents.

A. Chinese tour in Egypt

C. the discussion on Chinese education
D. the importance of Weibo
2.What is the netizens’ attitude towards Ding’s behavior?

B. China is a civilized country
C. People shouldn’t go abroad
D. Some misconducts are bad for our image
4.From the last paragraph, we know ________.

D. many people hope the boy can live back a normal life

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
The health-care economy is filled with unusual and even unique economic relationships. One of the least understood involves the peculiar roles of producer or “provider” and purchaser or “consumer” in the typical doctor-patient relationship. In most sectors of the economy, it is the seller who attempts to attract a potential buyer with various appealing factors of price, quality, and use, and it is the buyer who makes the decision. Such condition, however, is not common in most of the health-care industry.
In the health-care industry, the doctor-patient relationship is the mirror image of the ordinary relationship between producer and consumer. Once an individual has chosen to see a physician — and even then there may be no real choice — it is the physician who usually makes all significant purchasing decisions: whether the patient should return “next Wednesday”, whether X-rays are needed, whether drugs should be prescribed, etc. It is rare that a patient will challenge such professional decisions or raise in advance questions about price, especially when the disease is regarded as serious.
This is particularly significant in relation to hospital care. The physician must certify the need for hospitalization, determine what procedures will be performed, and announce when the patient may be discharged. The patient may be consulted about some of the decisions, but in general it is the doctor’s judgments that are final. Little wonder then that in the eye of the hospital it is the physician who is the real “consumer”. As a consequence, the medical staff represents the “power center” in hospital policy and decision-making, not the administration.
Although usually there are in this situation four identifiable participants— the physician, the hospital, the patient, and the payer (generally an insurance carrier or government)— the physician makes the essential decisions for all of them. The hospital becomes an extension of the physician; the payer generally meets most of the bills generated by the physician/hospital, and for the most part the patient plays a passive role. We estimate that about 75-80 percent of health-care choices are determined by physicians, not patients. For this reason, the economy directed at patients or the general is relatively ineffective.
1.The author’s primary purpose in writing this passage is to ________.
A. urge hospitals to reclaim their decision-making authority
B. inform potential patients of their health-care rights
C. criticize doctors for exercising too much control over patients
D. analyze some important economic factors in health-care
2.It can be inferred that doctors are able to determine hospital policies because ________.
A. most of patient’s bills are paid by his health insurance
B. it is doctors who generate income for the hospital
C. some patients might refuse to take their physician’s advice
D. a doctor is ultimately responsible for a patient’s health
3.According to the author, when a doctor tells a patient to “return next Wednesday”, the doctor is in fact ________.
A. advising the patient to seek a second opinion
B. warning the patient that a hospital stay might be necessary
C. instructing the patient to buy more medical services
D. admitting that the first visit was ineffective
4.The author is most probably leading up to ________.
A. a proposal to control medical costs
B. a study of lawsuits against doctors for malpractice
C. an analysis of the cause of inflation (通货膨胀) in the US
D. a discussion of a new medical treatment
