Houseplants clean the air and brighten a room.Occasionally，they drive us mad as we wonder how exactly we managed to kill yet another“unkillable”houseplant.(In that way，they provide great lessons in perseverance as well！)But it looks like there's one more great reason to grow houseplants：their presence in your workspace might actually make you smarter.
According to a recent study published in The Journal of Environmental Psychology，just having plants in your work space is enough to increase your attention span.An increase in attention span means that we're able to remember more of what we read.To test the hypotheses，the study's authors gave subjects a Reading Span Task，which requires reading sentence aloud，then remembering the last word in each sentence.This requires reading，memorization，and recall abilities，and switching between the three.
The researchers had their entire test pool complete Reading Span Tasks to get a baseline reading.Then they moved some of the people to a room with no plants，and others to a room that had four plants around the desk.They were all asked to repeat the Reading Span Tasks，and the people who worked near a plant improved overall，while those without plants stayed roughly the same.
Beauty，fresh air，the joy of caring for another living thing－all great reasons to have a few houseplants around.If they help increase attention spans，all the better!
1．The study shows that growing houseplants can ________．
A．clean the air
B．make the house beautiful
C．increase attention spans
D．have the joy of caring

The National Park Service in the United State will mark its one hundredth anniversary in 2016.As it nears its second century，the Park Service plans to increase its educational programs for students and teachers.
The plans include transportation support for one hundred thousand students each year to visit national parks to learn about nature and history.Yellowstone is believed to have been the world's first national park when it was established in 1872.Other students will get a chance to see parks in faraway places through Skype and other online programs.
The National Park Service also works with partners to provide education.One of its partners is a nonprofit organization called NatureBridge.NatureBridge is celebrating its fortieth anniversary and says one million young people have taken part in its programs.The organization works with students from kindergarten through twelfth grade and uses national parks as its classrooms.It provides field science programs at Yosemite National Park and four other locations in California and the northwestern state of Washington.
Now，NatureBridge is launching an East Coast center with a four－million－dollar grant from Google.The program will begin in April at the Prince William Forest Park in Virginia.Students stay for three to five days in NatureBridge programs.The
activities are aimed at developing their science skills.For example，they learn about different soils and study water quality under a microscope.Jason Morris is executive vice president of NatureBridge.He says when they are not sleeping，eating or in a laboratory，the students spend their time outdoors.
Julia Washburn is associate director of education and interpretation for the National Park Service.She says in a time of budget cuts，the agency has to find ways to still meet its goals.And one of the most important services that the Park Services provide every day is nature interpretation.
