What is the secret of happiness? A new study finds that happiness comes from exercise. People who exercise actively bring themselves happiness equal to earning an extra $25,000 ayear.
Instead of recording extra hours at work in hopes of getting a raise, maybe you should hit the gym instead, as it could make you just as happy as that extra money. An interesting new study, published in the Lancet, found that people who are physically active have a greater sense of well—being than those who are inactive-and that active individuals feel as good as inactive people who earn $ 25,000 more per year.
Researchers from Oxford and Yale Universities used data gathered from more than 1.2milion Americans. They were asked, “How many times have you felt mentally unwell in the past30 days. for example, due to stress, depression, or emotional problems?” Participants were also asked about their exercise habits and were able to choose from 75 diverse physical activities, including doing housework and childcare, running, weightlifting, and cycling. The researchers found that people who exercise regularly feel bad for an average of 35 days per year, while inactive people feel bad for an additional 18 days.
All exercise types were associated with a lower mental health burden. Social physical activities（that is to say, team sports such as football, basketball, etc）had an even more positive effect, which can best help people relax mind.
It is possible for some to get too much exercise. From Business Insider'sreport on the study. “The mental health of those participants who exercised for longer than three hours a day suffered more than that of those who weren't particularly physically active.” The ideal amount seems to be three to five training sessions per week. lasting 30 to 60 minutes each.
But the conclusion should be that any amount helps, so don't stress about hitting that perfect balance: “All exercise types were associated with a lower mental health burden than not exercising.” 4. The question asked in Paragraph one is meant to ______. A. introduce the researchers B. tell the secret C. draw a conclusion D. lead to the topic 5. Which exercise below can help us relax mind most effectively?
A. Running B. Walking alone. C. Playing football D. Keeping fit in the gym.
6. According to the passage, the following are true EXCEPT that ______. A. people who exercise actively may feel bad for about 35 days per year. B. The more exercise you take, the higher mental health burden you will get. C. overdoing exercising will do harm to people's mental health. D. doing exercise is better than not doing it. 7. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Exercise can bring as much pleasure as an income rise. B. The secret of happiness has nothing to do with wealth. C. Choosing the right form of exercise is of vital importance. D. The key to keep young is to exercise regularly.
C
Growing up as kids we are told to share our toys and notto be selfish. We also live in an age when discussing our feelings is encouraged. But when does it all become too much? With new crazes trending all the time, such as dance challenges and wearing a carpet as a dress, the question is: when can sharing become oversharing on social media?
“Oversharing” has become associated with social media, but it isn'texclusiveto this platform. Imagine you head to a party and meet x k w someone. Within five minutes they have revealed private details about their life. While some of us may try to escape these people, according to marriage advisor Carolyn Cole, this form of oversharing could come from a strong desire to connect with someone. But how does this translate to social media?
Dr. Christopher Hand, a lecturer in cyberpsychology (网络心理学），says the more details people disclose, the less sympathy we express when things go wrong. It seems that searching for sympathy by oversharing is generally
considered as negative rather than the cry for help it could really be.
However, Dr. Hand's research also seems to suggest that the more we post on a platform, the more socially attractive we become-provided that the posts that we bang out are positive. Even back in 2015, Gwendolyn Seidman PhD said that we should avoid complaining and being negative online. We should also avoid showing off, especially about our love lives. It makes sense-if your date is going “that well\a photo with text?
So, how can you know if you are oversharing? Well, why not ask your friends in real life. They would probably be happy to tell you if your posts about your breakfast or your complaints about your lack of money really are too much.
8. What does the underlined word “exclusive\" in paragraph 2 mean? A. Unique. B. Similar. C. Relevant. D. Fundamental.
9. Why do some people prefer oversharing at parties? A. To draw others' attention. B. To satisfy others' curiosity. C. To remove negative feelings. D. To develop good relationships.
10. Which of the following may Dr. Hand agree with? A. Sharing more details online can attract more sympathy. B. Oversharing negative experiences is equal to crying for help. C. Sharing negative posts can't help one become socially attractive. D. Oversharing isn't likely to happen online when things go wrong. 11. According to the text, what should be avoided for online sharing? A. Reflecting on past bad manners. B. Showing a great many expensive goods. C. Writing a recipe for a balanced breakfast. D. Recording unforgettable moments with friends.
D
Babies who frequently communicate with their caregivers using eye contact and vocalisations(发声)at the age of one are more likely to develop greater languages skills by the time they reachtwo,according to new research.
In the study, researchers looked at 11- and 12-month-od babies' vocalisations. gestures and gaze behaviours ,and at how their caregivers responded to them.To measure he interactions ,the researchers videoed infants(婴儿)and caregiver at home,and asked them to play as usual.They took those recordings back to the university
The scientists then used statistical models to find that the best predictor of vocabulary at 24 months was when infants were seen to use vocalsatioms while looking at their caregiver's face when they were about a year old.The benefits were even greater when these interactions were followed by responses from the caregiver.
The statistics showed that at 19 months,children had an average of about 100 words.Those who exhibited the beneficial interactive behaviour earlier in life were seen to have an average of about 30 extra words.
\"The message of this paper is thatitis the result of a joint effort; noticing what your child is attending to and talking to them about it will support their language development.\" said McGillion, a co-author of the work.
\"The joy of this message is that that can happen in any context... across any part of your day.It's not something that requires special equipment or even lots of time.I can happen when you're doing the laundry,for example—when you're taking out the socks, you can talk about socks...in the park, in the car, at mealtimes,at bathtimes.This finding can be used in any context,\"added McGillion.
\"This is a developmental snapshot in the first year of life, but children are constantly growing and changing and so are their behaviours. It would be interesting to look at these sorts of behaviours again as children progress through the second year of life to see what's happening there,\"said Donnellan,the lead author on the study. 12. How did the researchers get the findings? A. By interacting with babies. B. By asking babies to vocalize. C. By analyzing relevant recordings. D. By referring to the previous statistics.
13. What does he underlined word \"it\"in Paragraph 5 mean? A. Infants' eye contact. B. Infants' larger vocabulary. C. The response from caregivers.
D. The best predictor of vocabulary.
14. What did McGilion say about infants' interactive behaviour? A. I's easy to perform. B. It's complex to understand. C. It's difficult to copy. D. It's interesting to video.
15. What might further studies be on? A. Children's academic progress. B. Children's growing environment. C. Children's potential physical development. D. Children's behaviours across more age ranges. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）

People Who Can’t Count
A recent study has discovered that dyscalculia, the mathematical inability in reading, affects about 5% of children in Britain. There is no simple way of finding out the reason and kids with this learning disability are usually labelled unintelligent.
So what exactly is this learning disability in mathematics? Unlike most people, dyscalculics cannot recognise three or four objects.____16____For example, they need to count the books on the table before they can say how many there are. In other words, they have to count them one by one. This is where they are different from others. The majority of us, if shown three or four similar things, can immediately recognise them.
___17___They cannot understand, for instance, why two and three makes five. Another problem is not being able to tell which group contains more objects than the other. Experiments have proved that dyscalculics have not developed the part of the brain responsible for processing numbers.
There are also problems with the abstract concept of time for dyscalculics.____18____If your best friend is always late, he might be suffering from dyscalculia. Dyscalculics cannot keep track of time, and they never know how much time they have spent getting ready and how long it will take them to get to work. In addition, research has shown that dyscalculics behave oddly in social situations.____19____This poor ability can explain why they never know how much change they are due or what kind of budget they need for their holiday.
On the other hand, dyscalculics are very good at creative arts. People suffering from dyscalculia can become
painters or poets. Dyscalculia does not seem to delay language acquisition. Dyscalculic children acquire language at the same time as, if not earlier than, most children and have no problem learning to read or write.___20___ A. Dyscalculics have difficulties in using numbers at all.
B. This disability scares children away from learning mathematics.
C. They have to go through the routine of counting even a small number of objects. D. It is quite reasonable for dyscalculics to solve this kind of specific problem at any time. E. They never know how much they should tip the waiter or they’ve got left after a shopping trip. F. We can see that dyscalculia is only a learning disability, not a general indication of intelligence.
G. This can account for their difficulty in reading schedules and remembering the order in which things have happened.
