Some educators told us that more years of school could help students get higher scores on intelligence tests. That was a finding of a study of teenage males in some countries. Now, another research shows that physical activity may help students do better in their classes.

The research comes as educators in some countries are reducing time for activities like physical education. They are using the time instead for academic（學(xué)術(shù)的）subjects like math and reading. The studies appeared between 2008 and 2014. They included more than 55, 000 children, aged 6 to 18.

Amika Singh:“ According to the results of our study, we can conclude that being physically active is beneficial for academic performance. There are, first, Physiological explanations, like more blood flow, and so more oxygen to the brain. Being physically active means there are more hormones(荷爾蒙)produced like endorphins(內(nèi)啡肽). And endorphins make your stress level lower and your mood improved, which means you also perform better.”

Also, students taking part in organized sports learn rules and how to follow them. This could improve their classroom behavior and help them keep their mind on their work.

The study leaves some questions unanswered, however. Ms. Stash says it is not possible to say whether the amount or kind of activity affected the level of academic improvement. This is because of differences among the studies.

The researchers said they found only two high-quality studies. They needed more high-quality studies to confirm (證實(shí)) their findings. They also pointed out that “results for other parts of the world may be quite different.”

Still，the general finding was that physically active kids are more likely to do better in school. Ms. Singh says schools should consider that finding before they cut physical education programs. Her paper on “Physical Activity and Performance at School” is published in the Archives of Pediatric and Adolescent Medicine.

1.The passage mainly tells us that ________.

A. a research on physical education has been done by the researchers

B. there is a possibility that physical activity leads to higher grades

C. the amount or kind of activity directly affects academic level

D. the research shows that the children aged 6 to 18 don't do sports

2.Which of the following is TRUE?

A. Being mentally active is good for academic subjects.

B. The more hormones you have, the more stressed you will get.

C. The researchers have found many high-quality studies to prove the research.

D. The educators in some countries think studies, not exercise, mean much to students.

3.The underlined sentence in Paragraph 6 probably means ________.

A. good marks result from high-quality study.

B. findings are probably different in different areas.

C. physical activity will spread all over the world.

D. academic performance depends on the surroundings.

4.What's the purpose of writing the passage?

A. To call our attention to the sports at school.

B. To introduce all types of physical activities.

C. To represent the academic performance.

D. To improve students’ health.

“Let’s have a journey. Why not fly out and meet me, Dad?” I say one day.

My father had just retired after 27 years as a manager for IBM. His job filled his day, his thoughts, and his life. While he woke up and took a warm shower, I screamed under a freezing waterfall in Peru. While he tied a tie and put on the same Swiss watch, I rowed a boat across Lake of the Ozarks.

My father sees me drifting aimlessly, nothing to show for my 33 years but a passport full of funny stamps. He wants me to settle down, but now I want him to find an adventure.

He agrees to travel with me through the national parks. We meet four weeks later in Rapid City.

“What's our first stop？” asks my father.

“What time is it？”

“Still don't have a watch？”

Less than an hour away is Mount Rushmore. As he stares up at the four Presidents carved in granite(花崗巖), his mouth and eyes open slowly, like those of a little boy.

“Unbelievable,” he says. “How was this done？”

A film in the information center shows sculptor Gutzon Borglum devoted 14 years to the sculpture and then left the final touches to his son.

We stare up and I ask myself, “Would I ever devote my life to anything？”

No directions, no goals. I always used to hear those words in my father's voice. Now I hear them in my own.

The next day we’re at Yellowstone National Park, where we have a picnic.

“Did you ever travel with your dad？” I ask.

“Only once,” he says. “I never spoke much with my father. We loved each other — but never said it. Whatever he could give me, he gave.”

That last sentence — it’s probably the same thing I’d say about my father. And what I’d want my child to say about me.

In Glacier National Park, my father says, “I've never seen water so blue.” I have, in several places of the world. I can keep traveling, I realize — and maybe a regular job won't be as dull as I feared.

Weeks after our trip, I call my father.

“The photos from the trip are wonderful,” he says. “We've got to take another trip like that sometime.”

I tell him I've decided to settle down, and I'm wearing a watch.

1.We can learn from Paragraphs 2 and 3 that the father _____.

A. was a very fashionable manager

B. was unhappy with the author's lifestyle

C. got bored with his job so he retired

D. liked the author's collection of stamps

2.What does the author realize at Mount Rushmore?

A. He should pursue a specific aim in life.

B. He should learn sculpture in the future.

C. His father is as innocent as a little boy.

D. His father is interested in sculpture.

3.From the underlined paragraph, we can see that the author _____．

A. wants his children to learn from their grandfather

B. hopes to give whatever he can to his father

C. learns how to communicate with his father

D. comes to understand what parental love means

4.What could be inferred about the author and his father from the end of the story?

A. They decide to learn photography together.

B. They begin to change their attitudes to life.

C. The call solves their disagreements.

D. The Swiss watch has drawn them closer.

First Lady Michelle Obama is a big fan of volunteering. Volunteering means working for free to help someone else. Mrs. Obama says volunteering is very important. “It should be part of everyone’s life,” she says.

Many teens agree. They say that helping others feels great and makes a difference. These days, more teens volunteer than work for pay. Teens clean up parks, walk dogs at animal shelters, visit the elderly and more.

Some cities ---- including Seattle, Chicago, and Washington, D.C. ----require high school students to volunteer. Students must volunteer in order to graduate. The student volunteers learn new skills and help their communities.

Many parents are in favor of the idea ---- they say volunteering helps teens build job skills. But most teens don’t want to be forced to volunteer. They say they are busy. And they say volunteering is only fun if it’s a choice.

Read both sides of the debate and decide.

YES

Volunteering can help teens get into college or get a job.

Many cities and towns need help. Volunteers can help keep important programs going.

Not all teens will volunteer if it isn’ t required. Schools should require students to do all they can to get ready for adult life.

NO

Most teens are already very busy with classes, homework, jobs and sports. Forcing them to do more isn’t fair.

It should be up to each person. Helping out doesn’t feel as good if you have to do it.

Finding a volunteer job isn’t always easy. Students shouldn’t be kept from graduating because of something they can’t control.

Top lists are lecturing people on everything from “100 places to visit” to “100 books to read”. Aren’t you just tired of being told what to do with your time?

Now you have a list to end all lists!

Take a look at the following two examples from the list of “101 thins not to do”:

Swim with Dolphins?

Swimming with dolphins is one of the world’s most profitable tourist activities. However, every dolphin will welcome having their busy, tiring day interrupted by tourists screaming pushing around them in the water. Worse yet, when dolphins get too near to the boats loaded tourists, they could get caught up in ropes and killed by propellers(螺旋槳).

Here’s a little secret. Dolphins look like smiling at you, but actually they’re just opening mouths.

Go to see the Mona Lisa?

There must be something about the mysterious smile. The 6 million people who visit the lady in the Louvre every year can’t all be wrong, after all. But they can be quite annoying, standing in front of you, holding up their cameras to prevent you from seeing anything. In fact, it is hard for you to see the painting clearly because you have to stay away from it for security reasons. After queuing for hours, many tourists can remain in front of the painting only for 15 seconds most.

If the mysterious lady in the picture knew her fate, she wouldn’t just be smiling, she’d be laughing.

So, still long to see the Mona Lisa? If you want to find out more about the list, read 101 Things NOT to Do Before You Die. Visit www. not2dobeforeidie. co. uk and buy the book at a 20% discount.

Birthdays often involve surprises. But this year's surprise on the birthday of the great British playwright William Shakespeare is surely one of the most dramatic.

On April 22, one day before his 441st birthday anniversary, experts discovered that one of the most recognizable portraits of William Shakespeare is a fake. This means that we no longer have a good idea of what Shakespeare looked like. “It's very possible that many pictures of Shakespeare might be unreliable because many of them are copies of this one,” said an expert from Britain's National Portrait Gallery.

The discovery comes after four months of testing using X-rays, ultraviolet light, microphotography and paint samples. The experts from the gallery say the image —commonly known as the “Flower portrait”— was actually painted in the 1800s, about two centuries after Shakespeare's death. The art experts who work at the gallery say they also used modern chemistry technology to check the paint on the picture. These checks found traces of paint dating from about 1814. Shakespeare died in 1616, and the date that appears on the portrait is 1609.

“We now think the portrait dates back to around 1818 to 1840. This was when there was a renewed interest in Shakespeare's plays,” Tarnya Cooper, the gallery's curator (館長), told the Associated President.

The fake picture has often been used as a cover for collections of his plays. It is called the Flower portrait because one of its owners, Desmond Flower, gave it to the Royal Shakespeare Company.

“There have always been questions about the painting,” said David Howells, curator for the Royal Shakespeare Company. “Now we know the truth, we can put the image in its proper place in the history of Shakespearean portraiture.”

Two other images of Shakespeare, are also being studied as part of the investigation and the results will come out later this month.________

1.What makes the birthday of Shakespeare dramatic this year?

A. It was found that he painted a portrait in 1814 instead of in 1609.

B. The Flower portrait has been found to be a fake.

C. Three portraits of Shakespeare are being tested to identify a real one.

D. It was found that there was a renewed interest in Shakespeare's plays around 1818 to 1840.

2.Which statement is True according to the passage?

A. Portraits of Shakespeare are all unreliable.

B. “Flower portrait” was a portrait of Shakespeare given to Desmond Flower.

C. 1814 might be when the portrait was drawn.

D. The Flower portrait is not often used as a cover for Shakespeare's play.

3.How many methods were used to test the portrait?

A. Not mentioned.B. TwoC. ThreeD. At least four.

4.The best title for this passage is “________”.

A. Birthdays often involve surprises

B. The surprise on the 441st birthday of Shakespeare

C. One portrait of Shakespeare is a fake

D. How can we know Shakespeare's appearance?

5.Which is the best sentence to fill in the blank in the last paragraph?

A. Soon we'll know which portrait is reliable.

B. Maybe we cannot find a real portrait of Shakespeare.

C. If the two portraits are found to be false, they will test more.

D. For now what Shakespeare really looked like will remain a mystery.
