26、 We all know the value of taking a walk in the fresh spring weather. It allows your mind to relax and forget about the problems in everyday life. Studies have commonly shown the benefits of being around green spaces, including gardens, city parks and forests.
But did you know that being close to these natural surroundings during childhood could positively influence your mental health as an adult?
A study by the Barcelona Institute for Global Health (ISGlobal) surveyed 3,600 people from all over Europe, including Spain, the Netherlands, Lithuania and the UK.
The all-adult study gave these volunteers a questionnaire on how frequently they used natural spaces during childhood – for example, playing in a garden, riding a bike at the park or hiking in a forest. They were also asked about the importance they put on using such places.
Volunteers were then given a psychological test, which included a variety of problem-solving activities, to learn about their mental state within a four-week period.
The results showed that the people who were more exposed to natural spaces had higher mental health scores compared to those with lower childhood exposure.
According to the study, 73 percent of Europe’s population only has limited chance to natural spaces. Mark Nieuwenhuijsen, director of ISGlobal’s Urban Planning, said that “Many children in Europe lead an indoor lifestyle… so we call on policymakers to improve the availability of natural spaces for children.”
While this study was based in Europe, a lack of green space can affect anyone, anywhere. So, remember to make time to immerse yourself in nature, as your mental health is just as important as the physical one.
【1】What was the purpose of the ISGlobal’s study?
A.To study the influence of childhood exposure to natural spaces.
B.To understand the mental health problems of children.
C.To see how childhood experiences shape adult life.
D.To examine the advantages of taking a walk.
【2】What do we know about the study?
A.The volunteers included both children and adults.
B.The volunteers were from all over the world.
C.It was made up of a questionnaire and a psychological test.
D.It focused on the volunteers’ physical health state.
【3】What does the underlined word “immerse” in the last paragraph probably mean?
A.understand something B.lose oneself in something
C.protect against something D.imagine doing something
【4】Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A.The benefits of green space B.mental health or physical health
C.outdoor lifestyle D.the value of taking a walk
27、Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.
Surveys in Britain and America consistently show that the biggest worry parents have for their school-age children is that they will be bullied. In Japan more pupils commit suicide on September 1st, just before the start of the new term, than on any other day. 【1】. Many victims are too ashamed to tell a teacher. One former victim who recently finished high school in Vancouver says he kept the pain to himself for several months, worried that teachers would “judge” him.
Children who are from ethnic minorities, short, obese, disabled, gay or have poor social skills are at higher risk. In America bullies pick on “nerds”. In China and South Korea, by contrast, those with poor grades are at higher risk. A study in 2013 of the Arab world found that the best predictor of being bullied was having crooked teeth. 【2】. A graduate student at Oxford University says he was “emotionally scarred for at least five years” after being tormented in middle school in Hong Kong.
【3】. In Britain all state schools have since 2006 been required to adopt a school-wide anti-bullying policy. By 2015 every state in America had anti-bullying legislation, States with the strictest laws, such as Massachusetts, require school officials to report all bullying to the head, who must “promptly conduct an investigation”.
Central to tackling bullying in schools, argues Christina Salmivalli of the University of Turku in Finland, is to encourage bystanders to intervene. 【4】. By teaching bystanders to speak up, or at least not to laugh at the victim, the “social rewards” of bullying can be reduced, she says.
Other approaches abound. The International School of Beijing has security guards in every changing room. Many school-bus drivers in North America assign seats, keeping suspected bullies close to the front. Every classroom at Rhiw-Bechan School in mid-Wales has a “worry-box” for pupils to report bullies anonymously.
A. The main motivation for bullying is the drive for social status.
B. Victims of bullying may in turn bully others.
C. But bullied children everywhere risk long-term health effects.
D. But educators struggle to spot bullying, let alone to stop it.
E. Cultural differences complicate the picture.
F. Most rich countries have anti-bullying laws.
28、 It’s said that today more than $ 400 billion a year is spent on advertising worldwide. Beyond that the economic influence of advertising touches just about every consumer-product industry, from No wonder, it is widely recognized that the global economy is heavily being driven by advertisements.
A successful advertisement involves at least three things. The advertisers will first of all single out the market. That is, they need to determine who will buy the product. Then, they will work out the best way to appeal to this market. So they will take into consideration a number of desires or worries the market may have. Finally, they will design the advertising programme. That is, they will study what words and images their advertisement contains and what slogans（广告语）they plan to make use of. They will also consider employing famous people and using scientific data to support e product.
While in everyday life consumers have seen lots of successful examples of advertising like Nike, Coca-Cola, and McDonald’s, there are still some examples that do not reach the expected goal. One soap company had all its advertisements show dirty clothes on the left, its box of soap in the middle, and clean clothes on the right. Then it started its advertising programme in the Middle East. Unfortunately, since Arabic speakers read Arabic from the right to the left, many viewers when seeing the ad, thought to themselves, “Why, this soap makes clothes dirty!”
Therefore, advertisers have to be aware of cultural differences when they want to carry out international advertising programme in a foreign country. Study the cultural background of the customers, or ruin the advertising programme!
【1】What should the advertisers do before designing an ad?
A.Conduct market research.
B.Remove customers’ worries.
C.Invite famous people to cooperate.
D.Employ scientific data to give evidence.
【2】What can be learned from the text?
A.The global economy is determined by advertising.
B.The profits of advertising are beyond expectation.
C.The soap ad is successful in Arabic countries.
D.Cultural differences should be considered for international ads.
【3】What is the best title of the passage?
A.Successful International Ads
B.Awareness of Cultural Differences
C.What Is Advertising?
D.How to Appeal to the Market?
29、Most trips will involve some walking, even if the main activity is cycling or horse riding.【1】 However, if you are going to walk 16-19 km or more a day with a pack on your back, daily for several days, your feet and body will suffer if you have not prepared yourself beforehand.

So 1 spent a lot of time preparing very carefully I prepared for all the possible questions ahead. As a result, 1 got the job. While my classmates were still struggling to get a job, I had succeeded in getting one, which made me feel very proud of myself.
After one month of hard training, Today was my first day at work to show the results of the training. I got up as usual, but I decided to skip doing exercise as I did not want to take the risk of arriving at the office late on my first day. I went through my morning routine and spent a lot of time deciding what to wear. I definitely wanted to make a great impression right from the start. Finally, I settled on the white suit with a tie.
I waved to say goodbye to my mother and set off cheerfully towards the bus stop. But l Saw a bus leaving the stop just as I turned around the corner. Now I would have to wait for another 15 minutes, even though time was very precious. I stood there patiently. 15 minutes passed and then 30 minutes, and there was no sign of the bus. Now what could 1 do? I had to reach the office on time. I saw a motorcycle approaching, but as I tried to stop it, the driver sped on without even a glance. It was then that a car stopped near me and a man waved to me. He said, “Aren’t you working at the bank at Nariman Point? My office is in the same building. Can I give you a ride?”
I was uncertain at first but then forced myself to get in as I was going to be late. Gradually, I realized that we were not on the familiar route to my office. I asked the man to stop the car, but he did not listen to me and told me to shut up.
