A new study found that inner-city kids living in neighborhoods with more green space gained about 13% less weight over a two-year period than kids living among more
concrete and fewer trees. Such 36 tell a powerful story. The obesity epidemic(流
行病) began in the 1980s, and many people believe increased portion sizes and inactivity are to 37 , but that can't be everything. Fast foods and TVs have been 38 us for a long time. "Most experts agree that the changes were 39 to something in the environment," says social epidemiologist Thomas Glass of The Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. That something could be a 40 of the green.
The new research, 41 in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine, isn't the first to associate greenery with better health, but it does get us close 42 identifying what works and why. At its most straightforward, a green neighborhood 43 means more places for kids to play –which is 44 since time spent outdoors
is one of the strongest correlates(相关的事物) of children's activity levels. But green space is good for the mind 45 : research by environmental psychologists has shown that it has cognitive（认知的） 46 for children with attention-deficit disorder. In one study, just reading 47 in a green setting improved kids' symptoms.
48 to grassy areas has also been linked to 49 stress and a lower body mass index (体重指数) among adults. And an 50 of 3,000 Tokyo residents associated walkable green spaces with greater longevity (长寿) among senior citizens.
Glass cautions that most studies don't 51 prove a causal link between greenness and health, but they're nevertheless helping spur action. In September the U. S. House of Representatives 52 the delightfully named No Child Left Inside Act to encourage public initiatives aimed at exposing kids to the outdoors.
Finding green space is not 53 easy, and you may have to work a bit to get your family a little grass and trees. If you live in a suburb or a city with good parks, take 54 of what's there. Your children in particular will love it –and their bodies and minds will be 55 to you.

第三部分：阅读理解(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A
Moocs (massive open online courses) are free, but
without tutoring, and are open to anyone, anywhere
in the world. The courses are flexible –normally three
to five hours of study a week – done at any time, short
(5 to 10 weeks) and video-rich. They are also heavily dependent on crowd sourcing: you can discuss a course with fellow students through online forums, discussion boards and peer review. Students don't have to finish the courses, pass assessments or do assignments, but, if they do, they get a certification of participation.
The Open University launched FutureLearn, the UK's answer to US platforms such as Coursera, EdX and Udacity, which have been offering Moocs from top US universities for the past two years. The response has been incredible, with more than three million people registering worldwide. Meanwhile, in xx, Edinburgh University became the first non-US institution to join Coursera's partnership, prising 13 universities. “We already run 50 online master's degrees, so this was a logical expansion,” says Professor Jeff Haywood, Edinburgh's vice-principal. “It's an investment in teaching methods research. How am I going to teach introductory philosophy to 100,000 people? That's what I call educational R&D.” He adds “If you look ahead 10 years, you'd expect all students graduating to have taken some online courses, so you've got to research that. Our Moocs are no more in petition with our degrees than a lifelong learning course because they don't carry credits.”
Cooperation is key, Haywood stresses. It is far better to offer 20-30 courses in your own areas of expertise(专门技能) and let other institutions do likewise. Professor Mike Sharples, FutureLearn's academic lead, goes further: “We've tied the elements available before into a package of courses offered by leading universities worldwide on a new software platform, with a new way of promoting it and also a new social-learning teaching method. You won't just receive an exam, but be able to discuss and mark each other's assignments.”
Bath University, one of more than 20 universities working with FutureLearn, launches its first course, Inside Cancer, next January, and regards Moocs as a way of breaking down age barriers. "There's no reason why someone doing GCSEs should not
look at our Moocs and get quite a way through them, or someone at PhD level and beyond," says Professor Bernie Morley, expert for learning and teaching.
56. Moocs have these features EXCEPT that_______.
A. Moocs are free of charge for anyone
B. Moocs can be adjusted according to people’s learning pace
C. Moocs provide teachers’ instructions if you have some difficulty
D. Moocs have a platform for learns to share their learning experience
57. What can be inferred from Professor Bernie Morley in the last paragraph?
A. People with various learning levels will probably show interest in Moocs.
B. People at PhD level have already known everything about Moocs.
C. Inside Cancer will be the most popular course for someone doing GCSEs.
D. Moocs are not so petitive as lifelong learning courses due to the problems
of credits.
58. The passage mainly deals with _____.
A. the various opinions on FutureLearn
B. the advantages of online teaching methods
C. the popularity of no-credit courses
D. the emergence of a new learning platform
B
One might expect that the ever-growing demands of the tourist trade would bring nothing but good for the countries that receive the holiday-makers. Indeed, a rosy picture is painted for the long-term future of the holiday industry. Every month sees the building of a new hotel somewhere, and every month another rock-bound Pacific island is advertised as the 'last paradise(天堂) on earth'.
However, the scale and speed of this growth seem set to destroy the very things tourists want to enjoy. In those countries where there was a rush to make quick money out of sea-side holidays, over-crowded beaches and the concrete jungles of endless hotels have begun to lose their appeal.
Those countries with little experience of tourism can suffer most. In recent years, Nepal set out to attract foreign visitors to fund developments in health and education. Its forests , full of wildlife and rare flowers, were offered to tourists as one more untouched paradise. In fact, the nature all too soon felt the effects of thousands of holiday-makers traveling through the forest land. Ancient tracks became major routesfor the walkers, with the consequent exploitation of precious trees and plants.
Not only the environment of a country can suffer from the sudden growth of tourism. The people as well rapidly feel its effects. Farmland makes way for hotels, roads and airports; the old way of life goes. The one-time farmer is now the servant of some multi-national organization; he is no longer his own master. Once it was his back that bore the pain ; now it is his smile that is exploited. No doubt he wonders whether
he wasn't happier in his village working his own land.
Thankfully, the tourist industry is waking up to the responsibilities it has towards those countries that receive its customers. The protection of wildlife and the creation of national parks go hand in hand with tourist development and in fact obtain financial support from tourist panies. At the same time, tourists are being encouraged to respect not only the countryside they visit but also its people.
The way tourism is handled in the next ten years will decide its fate and that of the countries we all want to visit. Their needs and problems are more important than those of the tourist panies. Increased understanding in planning world-wide tourism can preserve the market for these panies. If not, in a few years’ time the very things that attract tourists now may well have been destroyed.

Interactive Home-security Systems
Tarik Celebi, who lives in San Francisco suburb, takes his home-security system with him to work, to dinner, just about anywhere．By his cell phone, he "arms" his home-security alarm from his car before he leaves for work．During his workday, he gets e-mail alerts every time his front door opens, even though he's miles away．If the door opens at an unusual time ---say midday when no one should be ing or going --- he can order a 30-second video clip from the camera that watches the door．If it's just his mother-in-law getting a package delivery, no worries．Celebi is one of the first users of the latest interactive home-security systems．In addition to sounding alarms when the house is broken into and notifying homeowners or police, as traditional systems do, the interactive systems give users new ways to remotely control their systems and their home environment．Different from traditional home-security alarms, which homeowners typically have to press buttons on a keypad to turn on before they leave their homes, the interactive systems enable consumers to arm and disarm systems from smart phones, iPads and PCs, no matter where they are．
Most traditional systems are set up to sound an alarm if doors or windows are opened． The interactive systems give homeowners more options．For example, users
can elect when they want to be notified．They might want an e-mail or a text every time a door is opened, or only during the hours of 3 to 4 p．m．, when kids e home from school．Like Celebi, they can add cameras and get video clips when doors open．That could be helpful in making sure kids aren't bringing friends home when they're not supposed to．
Nationwide, about 20% of homes have traditional home-security systems．About half stop using them because they tire of the trouble．Being able to arm systems even while dashing to the subway or while at work will increase their usage of the new interactive systems．Although the new functions add costs to home security, the interactive-systems are believed to push home-security systems' usage rates closer to 30%, which would be a big movement for an industry that's been largely stuck at 20% for the past decade．"We all know it's going to get bigger, though we don't know how long it's going to take," Eric Taylor, an officer from San Francisco Security Department says．
63. What may Celebi first do if his front door opens at a wrong time when he is away?
A. Inform the police．
B. Call his mother-in-law．
C. Arm the security alarm．
D. Observe through video．
64. The interactive systems enable the user to ______.
A. improve his home environment remotely
B. lock his house's door while he is miles away
C. operate the home-security systems at any place
D. stop some friends of kids from entering automatically
65. What's the advantage of the interactive systems over the traditional ones?
A. They are cheaper.
B. They have more ways to inform the users.
C. They can give quicker reaction．
D. They are easier to set
up.
66. What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A. The importance of security industry.
B. The functions of the interactive alarms.
C. The popularity of home-security systems.
D. The market potential of the interactive systems.
D
Amazingly, US crime figures have been falling for 20 years now. Of course, the big question is, why? And can any lessons be learnt?
One reason could be the fall in the demand for the drug crack. During the 1980s, drug-related crimes soared, mostly caused by desperate crack users. However, according to professor Blumstein, co-author of The Crime Drop in America, news of the dangers of crack use caused its decrease and led to a fall in the number of drug-related crimes.
Some say that the adoption of a zero-tolerance policy in many cities has helped lead to a fall in crime. In New York City, for example, mayor Rudy Giuliani imposed strict and automatic punishments for all crimes, including minor offences such as graffiti and littering. Many believe this has had a very strong deterrent effect.
Another reason could be smarter policing strategies. Anti-theft measures and educating the munity about car theft has helped see a drop in crimes in many areas. Also, the use of crime mapping schemes that can discover identify crime peaks in different parts of the city has helped police target hotspots.
Another reason could be that more criminals are now behind bars. Sociologist John Conklin (from Tufts University) says a significant factor behind the fall in crime in the 1990s is the simple fact that many criminals are in jail. In his book Why Crime Rages Fell, he says sentencing was merciful in the 1960s and 1970s, when crime rose. But then more prisons were built and more offenders were imprisoned.
Some have linked the fall in violent crime to a decline in children’s exposure to lead in petrol. Jessica Wolpaw Reyes says, “Even low to moderate levels of exposure can lead to behavioral problems, reduced IQ, hyperactivity and youth crimes. You can link the decline in lead between 1975 and 1985 to a decline in violent crime 20 years later.”
Others say that the drop in crime has something to do with birth rates. According to statistics, birth rates peaked between 1957 and 1961, and the proportion of men in the US in their late teens and early 20s (the so-called “criminal age”) was highest in the late 70s and early 80s. However, as time went on, the proportion of people in this age group decreased.
Others claim that videogames have helped. A recent study has suggested that these games are keeping young people off the streets and therefore away from crime. Advocates of this argue that any effects the games may have in encouraging violent behavior is offset by the fact that the games keep potential criminals indoors and in front of the television.
Some argue that the widespread use of camera phones makes some criminals think twice before mitting a crime and getting filmed doing it. Also, many believe that the mass use of CCTV has also had an effect.
Finally, some say that petty theft just isn’t worth it any more. The resale value of second-hand goods such as televisions, cameras or clothes is now so low (or even non-existent) that most people see no point in stealing.
So, what do you think?
67. “Why Crime Rates Fell”is mentioned in the article to tell readers that ______.
A. drug crack can be extremely dangerous
B. crime mapping schemes help the police discover criminals
C. criminals should be strictly sentenced
D. children shouldn’t be allowed to contact lead
68. The underlined words “deterrent” in paragraph 3 most probably means ______.
A. ambiguous
B. contradictory
C. encouraging
D. frightening
69. Which of the following statements can NOT be concluded from the article?
A. Drug abuse may have something to do with high crime rates.
B. The young are more likely to mit crimes than the poor.
C. The widespread use of cameras is helpful to reducing crime rates.
D. The possible effects of games encouraging violence are partly countered.
70.By writing this article, the writer intends to tell us ______.
A. the amazing fact that US crime figures are going down
B. the recent statistics showing that crime rates are falling in the US
C. the answers to the question why US crime figures are falling
D. the special policies adopted by the US police that help a drop in crime

Throw the bottles and boxes of drugs out of your house. A new theory suggests that medicine could be bad for your health, which should at least e as good news to people who cannot afford to buy expensive medicine. This new theory argues that healing is at our fingertips: we can be healthy by doing Yoga on a regular basis.
Supporters of medical treatment argue that medicine should be trusted since it is effective and scientifically proven. They say that there is no need for spiritual methods such as Yoga. These waste our time, something which is quite precious in our material world. There is medicine that can kill our pain, x-rays that show us our bones or MRI that scans our brain for tumors (肿瘤).
We must admit that these methods are very effective in the examples that they provide. However, there are some “everyday plaints” such as back pains, headaches, insomnia, which are treated currently with medicine. When you have a headache, you take an Aspirin; when you cannot sleep, you take Xanax without thinking of the side effects of these. When you use these pills for a long period, you bee addicted to them; you cannot sleep without them. We pay huge amounts of money and bee addicted instead of getting better. How about a safer and more economical way of healing? When doing Yoga, you do not need anything except your energy so it is very economical. Its popularity has spread particularly throughout America and Western Europe. In quantum (量子) physics, energy is recognized as the fundamental substance (物质) which the universe consists of. Yoga depends on the energy within our bodies. It is a simple and effective way of restoring the energy flow. There are no side effects and it is scientifically explained.
Opponents of alternative healing methods also claim that serious illnesses such as HIV/AIDS and cancer cannot be treated without drugs. They think so because these patients spend the rest of their lives in the hospital taking medicine. How can Yoga make these people healthy again? It is very unfortunate that these patients have to live in the hospital losing their hair because of chemotherapy (化疗), losing weight
because of the side effects of the medicine they take. Actually, it is mon knowledge that except for when the cancer is recognized at an early stage, drugs also cannot treat AIDS or cancer. Most of the medicines these patients use are to ease their pain and their sufferings. Instead of drugs which are expensive and have many side effects, you can use your energy to overe the hardships of life, find an emotional balance, leave the stress of everyday life and let go of the everyday worries. We should definitely start learning Yoga and avoid illnesses before it is too late.
