    Children who spend more time outdoors may have a lower risk of becoming nearsighted, new research suggests.

    In the study, researchers looked at about 1,900 schoolchildren. The scientists found that the kids who had been instructed to spend more time outdoors over three years were 23 percent less likely to develop nearsightedness during this time than those who had not been instructed to spend more time outdoors. Moreover, among the kids who did become nearsighted during the study, the degree to which their eyesight worsened was slightly smaller among those who spent more time outdoors.

    The researchers selected six schools and required the children, whose average age was 7 at the start of the study, to attend one additional 60-minute class of outdoor activities during each school day for three years. The parents of these children were also encouraged to engage their children in outdoor activities after school, especially during weekends and holidays. The other half of the children, from another six schools, continued their usual activity patterns. After three years, 30.4 percent of the kids in the intervention(干预) group had become nearsighted, compared with 38.5 percent of the kids in the other group.

    It is not clear exactly why spending more time outside would benefit children’s eyesight, the researchers said. However, some research has suggested that the higher levels of light intensity found outdoors may increase the release of the chemical dopamine(多巴胺) of the eye. In turn, dopamine is known to restrain（抑制） the type of growth in the eye that is associated with nearsightedness.

    Based on the new results, the researchers recommend that children spend more time outdoors because of the potential benefits to their eyesight. However, it’s important to protect kids’ skin and eyes from UV light, which can be damaging.

    1.What did the children in the intervention group do during each school day?

    A. Attend an extra class of outdoor activities.

    B. Continue to do their usual activities.

    C. Spend one hour in doing eye exercises.

    D. Participate in outdoor activities with parents.

    2.What can be inferred about the chemical dopamine?

    A. It can contribute to poor sight. B. It can damage people’s brain

    C. It is beneficial to eyesight. D. It means low levels of light intensity.

    3.What may be discussed in the following paragraph?

    A. How to design outdoor activities for kids.

    B. How to prevent kids becoming nearsighted.

    C. How to protect kids’ skin and eyes from UV light.

    D. How to encourage kids to join in outdoor activities.

    4.Which can serve as the best title for the passage?

    A. The More Time Outdoors, the Better

    B. Kids May See Better if They Play Outside

    C. It’s Time to Engage Kids in Outdoor Activities

    D. Researchers Found a Cure for Nearsightedness

    阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、和D）中，选出最佳选项。

    Tonight, my piano concert was the most important thing in my family. My grandparents were coming by plane to hear me play. Even my busy Aunt Dianne who is on TV every night reading the news, was coming.

    But one thing was for sure. I would never win an award for my piano playing. And that's just because the more I practiced ,the more nervous I got. So there I was, on stage, in my beautiful dress, and I sat down at the piano. But when I started to play, I hit a wrong note. I told myself to start over. But then I hit the wrong note again. It was as if I hadn't practiced at all.

    Finally the disaster was over. I ran off the stage. I couldn't understand why people were applauding. But they were. My mom and my dad had flowers for me, and we were all supposed to go out for a nice dinner, but I couldn't. I just wanted to go home and cry and never go anywhere again. After we went back home, Aunt Dianne just came in and sat down on the side of my bed.

    "It was my first night on the air," she said."I had never been on television before, and I made a mistake. I mispronounced my name and the name of the news show. And you know what? No one even noticed but me. Just like tonight, no one noticed—just you". Aunt Dianne was right. I think we are harder on ourselves than anyone else is. Maybe I will leave my room. And maybe, I'll play the piano again.

    Nervous suspects locked up in Britain’s newest police station may feel relieved by a pleasant yellow color on the door . If they are close to confessing（供认）a crime , the blue on the wall might tip the balance .

    Gwent Police have abandoned colors such as greys and browns of the 20th-century police cell（牢房）and have used color psychology to decorate them .

    Ystrad Mynach station , which recently opened at a cost of ￡5 million has four cells with glass doors for prisoners who suffer from claustrophobia（幽闭恐怖症）. Designers have painted the frames yellow , which researchers say is a calming color . Other cells contain a royal blue line because psychologists believe that the color is likely to encourage truthfulness .

    The station has 31 cells , including 12 with a “live scan” system for drunken or disturbed prisoners , which detects the rise and fall of their chest . An alarm alerts officers if a prisoner’s breathing stops and carries on ringing until the door is opened .

    Designers and psychologists have worked for years on color . Blue is said to suggest trust , efficiency , duty , logic , coolness , thinking and calm . It also suggests coldness and unfriendliness . It is thought that strong blues will stimulate clear thought and lighter , soft colors will calm the mind and aid concentration .

    Yellow is linked with confidence , self-respect and friendliness get the color wrong and it could cause fear , depression and anxiety , but the right yellow can lift spirits and self-respect .

    Ingrid Collins , a psychologist who specializes in the effects of color , said that color was an “ energy force ” . She said : “ Blue does enhance communication but I am not sure it would enhance truthful communication . ”

    Yellow , she said , affected the mind . Red , on the other hand , should never be considered because it could increase aggression . Mrs. Collins praised the designers for using colors in the cells . Gwent is not the first British force to experiment with color to calm down or persuade prisoners to co-operate , In the 1990s Strathclyde Police used pink in cells based on research carried out by the US Navy .

    1.The expression “ tip the balance ” in Paragraph 1 probably indicates that the blue might __________ .

    A. let suspects keep their balance

    B. help suspects to confess their crimes

    C. make suspects cold and unfriendly in law court

    D. enable suspects to change their attitudes to colors

    2.Which of the following helps alert officers if someone stops breathing ?

    A. Scanning equipment . B. Royal blue lines .

    C. Glass doors . D. Yellow frames .

    3.The passage is mainly concerned with __________ .

    A. the relationship between colors and psychology

    B. a comparison of different functions of colors

    C. the use of colors in cells to affect criminals’ psychology

    D. scientific ways to help criminals reform themselves in prison

    Is beauty something always positive? Almost everyone thinks attractive people are happier and healthier, have better marriages and have more respectable jobs. Personal advisors give them better advice for finding jobs. Even judges are softer on attractive defendants. But in the executive（主管的） circle, beauty can become a disadvantage.

    While attractiveness is a positive factor for a man on his way up the executive ladder, it is harmful to a woman. Handsome male executives were considered having more honesty than plainer men; effort and ability were thought to lead to their success. Attractive female executives were considered to have less honesty than unattractive ones; their success was connected not with ability but with factors such as luck.

    All unattractive women executives were thought to have more honesty and to be more capable than the attractive female executives. Why are attractive women not thought to be able? An attractive woman has an advantage in traditionally female jobs, but an attractive woman in a traditionally manly position appears to lack the manly qualities required.

    This is true even in politics, “When the only clue is how he or she looks, people treat men and women differently, ” says Anne Bowman, who recently published a study on the effects of attractiveness on political candidates（候选人）. She asked 125 college students to rank two groups of photographs, one of men and one of women, in order of attractiveness. The students were told the photographs were of candidates for political offices. They were asked to rank them again, in the order they would vote for them.

    The results showed that attractive males completely defeated unattractive men, but the women who had ranked most attractive unchangeably received the fewest votes.

    1. In traditionally female jobs, attractiveness ________.

    A. makes women look more honest and capable

    B. strengthens the manly qualities required

    C. often enables women to succeed quickly

    D. is of no importance to women

    2.Bowman’s experiment shows that when it comes to politics, attractiveness _____.

    A. turns out to be a disadvantage to men

    B. has as little effect on men as on women

    C. affects men and women alike

    D. is more of a disadvantage than an advantage to women

    3.According to the passage, people’s views on beauty are often _____.

    A. practical B. one – sided

    C. old fashioned D. supportive

    4. The passage is mainly about _____.

    A. the advantages of being attractive

    B. the disadvantages of being attractive

    C. equal rights for women

    D. the importance of appearance

    There's a huge power in knowing how to make adjustments in life. In fact, it's possible to turn failure into success by making the right adjustments. 1. And on the other hand we call people who refuse or neglect to make adjustments sad, frustrated or confused.

The best way to do that is to trust your instincts (直觉). The more you do that the more they will work for you. Be prepared for changes, challenges and choices.

    If you can keep an attitude of preparation you'll have the best chance of making effective life adjustments. What kind? The kind that can see you through problems, setbacks and challenges. As the saying goes, “ 5. ”. That's the best advice for anyone who wants to make the best life adjustments and win!

    A. Learn to go with the flow.

    B. You shouldn't just listen to what pleases you.

    C. If you stay ready, you don't have to get ready.

    D. We call people who have the ability to make the best life adjustments happy.

    E. Reading body language and voice inflection can help you listen between the lines.

    F. The best you can do is make adjustments along the way in order to hit a moving target.

    G. Whatever your stage in life, age or financial level, everyone will face what I call the 3 C's.
