We all know about the health benefits of swimming.It offers a great workout for the body—it builds endurance,muscle strength and cardiovascular fitness.If you don’t mind getting wet,it can be fun too. 1 Well,many people are fond of it,based on evidence that it can actually be good for us.
Cold-water swimming—sometimes called wild swimming—involves swimming in natural areas including ponds,rivers and the sea.Jumping in gives a short sharp shock to the body, 2 A cold dip might wake you up,but research has found it can have much bigger benefits than that for your body and mind.As well as being good exercise,spending time outdoors and by water improves well-being.
3 One man who suffered constant pain after surgery claimed he was cured by taking a plunge in cold open water.And another swimmer,Sandria Simons,told the BBC “the immersion of your body in cold,salt water,just feeling like you’re at one with nature if you like,just feels amazing.”
But what is it that people are gaining from this chilly experience?Doctors say getting into cold water arouses a stress response,but the more you do it,your reaction to stress is reduced.It’s also thought to have a strong anti-inflammatory(抗炎的) effect.But there are bigger benefits to this stress-reducing exercise.Some experts believe cold-water swimming helps “cross-adaptation”,where one form of stress prepares the body for another. 4
So,if you’re convinced that this is for you,take advice:approach it with caution,swim with a friend,and maybe start in the summer, 5
A.but many participants say they get used to it.
B.when the water temperatures are higher!
C.Swimming is a good form of exercise,in part because it is fun.
D.But who would enjoy swimming in water that’s ice cold
E.Cold weather limits the months when ocean or lake swimming is possible.
F.There is much evidence suggesting cold-water swimming’s benefits.
G.For example,it also helps reduce the stress of exercising at high altitude.

as主要有两种词性,分别为介词和连词。as作为介词时,用法和语义较单一,其含义为“作为”。但是as作为连词词性时,其用法和功能较多,可以引导各类从句,如定语从句和多种状语从句。 (1)as引导时间状语从句多用于口语,强调“同一时间”或“一先一后”,有时还有“随着”的含义。 (2)as表示“因为”,引导原因状语从句,与 because相比,较口语化,所表达的原因语气较弱,所表达的原因比较明显,或是已知的事实。 (3)as表示“按照”“以……方式”“像……一样”“正如”,引导方式状语从句。 (4)as表示“尽管”“虽然”,引导让步状语从句,但必须构成倒装。 (5)as引导比较状语从句,其基本结构是as...as...。 (6)as引导非限制性定语从句,意为“正如”“正像”。常用于固定搭配中: as is often the case(这是常有的事);as we expected(不出所料);as is known to all/as we all know(众所周知);as is mentioned above(正如上面所提到的)等。

Do you want to live another 100 years or more?Some experts say that scientific advances will one day enable humans to last tens of years beyond what is now seen as the natural limit of the human life span.
“I think we are knocking at the door of immortality(永生),” said Michael Zey,a Montclair State University business professor and author of two books on the future.“I think by 2075 we will see it and that’s a conservative estimate(保守的估计).”
At the conference in San Francisco,Donald Louria,a professor at New Jersey Medical School in Newark said advances in using genes as well as nanotechnology(纳米技术) make it likely that humans will live in the future beyond what was possible in the past.“There is a great effort so that people can live from 120 to 180 years,” he said.“Some have suggested that there is no limit and that people could live to 200 or 300 or 500 years.”
However,many scientists who specialize in aging are doubtful about it and say the human body is just not designed to last about 120 years.Even with healthier lifestyles and less disease,they say failure of the brain and organs will finally lead all humans to death.
Scientists also differ on what kind of life the super aged might live.“It remains to be seen if you pass 120,you know;could you be healthy enough to have good quality of life?” said Leonard Poon,director of the University of Georgia Gerontology Centre.“At present people who could get to that point are not in good health at all.”

TU YOUYOU AWARDED NOBEL PRIZE
6 October 2015
This year’s Nobel Prize for Physiology1 or Medicine has been awarded to Tu Youyou(co-winner),whose research led to the discovery of artemisinin,a crucial2 new treatment for malaria.Artemisinin has saved hundreds of thousands of lives,and has led to improved health for millions of people.Over 200 million people around the world get malaria each year,and about 600,000 die from it.Artemisinin has become a vital part of the treatment for malaria,and is thought to save 100,000 lives a year in Africa alone.
Tu Youyou,a committed3 and patient scientist,was born in Ningbo,China,on 30 December 1930,and graduated from Peking University Medical School in 1955.After she graduated,she worked at the China Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Beijing.In 1967,the Chinese government formed a team of scientists with the objective of discovering a new treatment for malaria,and Tu Youyou was among the first researchers chosen.In the beginning,Tu Youyou went to Hainan,where malaria was more common,to study malaria patients.In 1969,she became the head of the project in Beijing,and decided to review ancient Chinese medical texts to find traditional botanical4 treatments for the disease.Her team examined over 2,000 old medical texts,and evaluated5 280,000 plants for their medical properties6.From their research,they discovered and tested 380 distinct ancient Chinese medical treatments that showed promise in the fight against malaria.
One medical text from the fourth century suggested using the extract from sweet wormwood to treat a fever.Tu’s team tested a collection of dried wormwood leaves but found no effect.They then tried boiling fresh wormwood,and using the liquid obtained from this to treat malaria,but this did not work either.Their project got stuck.However,Tu Youyou would not acknowledge7 defeat.She analysed8 the medical texts again,and by chance,she found one sentence suggesting a different way to treat the wormwood.She concluded that boiling the sweet wormwood apparently destroyed its medical properties.Using a lower temperature to draw out the extract,she found a substance that worked.After failing more than 190 times,the team finally succeeded in 1971.Tu Youyou and her team members even insisted on testing the medicine on themselves to make sure that it was safe.Later,the medicine was tested on malaria patients,most of whom recovered.This medicine,which was called artemisinin,soon became a standard treatment for malaria.
According to Tu Youyou,the discovery of artemisinin was a team effort.Upon hearing that she had been awarded the Nobel Prize,she said,“The honour is not just mine.There is a team behind me,and all the people of my country.This success proves the great value of traditional Chinese medicine.It is indeed an honour for China’s scientific research and Chinese medicine to be spread around the world.”(选自人教版新教材选择性必修第一册 UNIT 1)

Disasters are like a mirror.They show both our bright and dark sides,as individuals and as a society.As citizens in China and beyond continue to fight against the coronavirus(新冠状病毒),the daily lives of many have gone through changes—from simple routine adjustments to complete devotion from volunteers.
People have consciously chosen to stay at home to prevent further human-to-human spread.However,that didn’t stop employees and students from working and studying at home.On Feb.17,the scheduled first school day,many teachers started to give online lessons.Bored at home,many people began to learn new things to fill their newly-found time,such as baking or knitting.
The film named Contagion,2011 shows the worst case that might happen after a worldwide epidemic.Fortunately,the situation in China couldn’t be more different than the movie.Rather than violence and food shortage,everything has worked out rather well in China so far.
Scientists isolated(分离) the first virus strain,more than 30,000 medical workers in over 100 medical teams gathered and thousands of construction workers came to build hospitals in Wuhan,Hubei Province.Thousands of volunteers are working nonstop to help deliver supplies and assist the affected regions.
Sociologists once debated whether volunteer service is common to see around the world.Indeed,more than 30 years of research—exploring disasters in Europe,Asia,and America—confirmed that the need to help is universal wherever disasters strike.
“It’s normal that when disasters happen,people will fall into a panic.In reality,we’re more likely to rush in to help others than run them over to save ourselves,” wrote American psychologist Kelly Caldwell in Pacific Standard.“It’s an exercise in mass healing.”

Jon Steward,a 10-year-old boy with autism(自闭症),came home from Cumberland Head Elementary School in Plattsburgh,New York,on April 7 more excited than ever.To celebrate National Poetry Month,his fifth-grade teacher asked her students to write a poem about themselves,beginning every sentence with “I am”.
Jon couldn’t wait to start writing,so he sat down and didn’t look up until it was finished.A few hours later,he showed the poem to his parents,who immediately got chock up.
“I am odd.I am new,” Jon wrote in the poem.“I wonder if you are too.I hear voices in the air.I see you don’t and that’s not fair.”
“I feel like a boy in outer space.I touch the stars and feel out of place,” he went on to write.
“At first,we felt sad and hurt that he felt lonely,misunderstood and odd at school,” Steward said.“As the poem went on,we realized that he understood that he was odd and that so was everyone else in their own way.This is what Jon wants everyone to know.”
Jon was supposed to read his poem aloud to the class the following day,but upon waking up that morning,he refused to go to school.Instead,he stayed at home.
He didn’t think his poem was any good,so his dad posted it on Facebook in the hope of getting some encouraging comments.Once the National Autism Association saw the photo,they posted it on their page,where thousands of strangers shared how much the poem inspired them.Now the family has heard from hundreds of parents thanking Jon for showing how their own kids may be feeling at school.

A new study has discovered that meditation(冥想) and oxygen sport together reduce depression.The Rutgers University study found that this mind and body combination,done twice a week for only two months,reduced the symptoms for a group of students by 40 percent.
“We are excited by the findings because we have seen such a meaningful improvement in both clinically depressed and non-depressed students,” said lead author Dr Brandon Alderman.“It is the first time that both of these two behavioral ways have been looked at together for dealing with depression.”
Researchers believe the two activities have an interactive effect in combating depression.Alderman and Dr Tracey Shors discovered that a combination of mental and physical training(MAP) enabled students with major depressive disorder not to let problems or negative thoughts defeat them.
Rutgers researchers say those who participated in the study began with 30 minutes of focused attention meditation followed by 30 minutes of oxygen sport.They were told that if their thoughts drifted to the past or the future,they should refocus on their breathing,enabling those with depression to accept moment-to-moment changes in attention.
Shors,who studies the production of new brain cells in the hippocampus—part of the brain involved in memory and learning—says scientists have shown in animal models that oxygen sport exercise keeps a large number of certain cells alive.
The idea for the human intervention(干预) came from her laboratory studies,she says,with the main goal of helping individuals acquire new skills so that they can learn to recover from stressful life events.
“By learning to focus their attention and exercise,people who are fighting depression can acquire new learning skills that can help them process information and reduce the overwhelming recollection of memories from the past,” Shors says.
“We know these treatments can be practiced over a lifetime and that they will be effective in improving mental health,” said Alderman.“The good news is that this intervention can be practiced by anyone at any time and at no cost.”

Stress under the COVID-19(新型冠状病毒肺炎)
The first national survey of the psychological impact of the COVID-19 collected data between Jan.31 and Feb.10.It found that 35 percent of people suffered psychological stress,and the level of the stress was to do with various factors.
According to the research,the stress level was associated with sex,age and education.Female showed higher psychological stress than male.People aged between 18 and 30 showed the highest level of stress.They can get much information from social media,which can easily cause stress.The elderly have also been psychologically impacted,since this widespread disease is most likely to kill older patients.Furthermore,people with higher education tended to have more stress for their knowledge of health.
Further,people may have higher stress due to their jobs.It is evident that migrant workers(外来务工人员) have the highest level of stress among all workers because they worry about the virus carried in public transports when returning to their jobs,about work delays and loss of income as they stop working,and about job opportunities that may dry up before the cities they work in return to full operations.
In addition,stress levels have something to do with the region for its local medical resources,efficiency of public health system,prevention and control measures.For example,Shanghai is at high risk because of the large population of migrant workers,but the stress level is not in the high level.This may be because Shanghai has one of the best public health systems in China,according to the research.
Ultimately,the prevention and control measures taken by the Chinese government have made people’s stress decrease.Still,based on the research,psychologists suggested more attention be paid to young adults and migrant workers who have higher stress.

My twin sister is in therapy(治疗).The other day,she missed an important appointment for no good reason.My therapist said it was “time blindness”.
I’m living in New York,3,000 miles away from my twin.We video chat every day,but I haven’t seen her in person since Christmas.
Time blindness is a term invented by doctors who treat people with ADHD(注意缺陷多动障碍).Psychologist Ari Tuckman says adults typically develop an awareness of time and an ability to track its passing.Some people have what he calls ‘harder’ or ‘sharper’ time awareness:they know when they’ve been out for lunch for too long,or when something hasn’t been in the oven for long enough.The others have much “softer” time awareness:they can miss appointments and trains.Time blindness can greatly impact someone’s life if they can’t ever meet deadlines.People with ADHD are often more time-blind than others.
Besides our own time awareness,Tuckman says,context plays a role:sleep loss,anxiety,being drunk and anything that might impact how we process the world can make us feel more time-blind.Without the usual time-marker cues we might use to divide up our days—the school bus arriving,the line at the coffee shop,or weekend nights spent at restaurants with friends—we’re swimming in a sea of sameness.
Sorrow is one of the biggest causes of time blindness,according to Tuckman.Holding onto time is a skill of your mind,like doing math,and sadness reduces its computing strength.It’s why time goes faster when I ztalk to my twin sister,when I’m not so sad.
Tuckman says it might be nice for more people to understand time blindness.

A.They are often productive in a limited time.
B.They tend to spend less time in having lunch.
C.They are good at keeping track of time passing.
D.They usually need stronger time management.
答案 C
解析 细节理解题。根据文章第三段中的“Psychologist Ari Tuckman says adults typically develop an awareness of time and an ability to track its passing.Some people have what he calls ‘harder’ or ‘sharper’ time awareness:they know when they’ve been out for lunch for too long,or when something hasn’t been in the oven for long enough.”可知,塔克曼认为“更强”时间意识的人善于记录时间的流逝。故选C项。

语篇解读 本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Tene Konate为养活自己的两个女儿成为重型卡车司机的故事。
1.答案 taught
解析 考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,该句谓语动词是连系动词is,空格处teach为非谓语动词。又因其逻辑主语是“one of 111 women”,两者间有被动关系且时间上是“已经发生”,故用过去分词。故填taught。
2.答案 driving
解析 考查非谓语动词。根据空格前并列连词or可知,此处与moving rocks是并列关系并充当介词like的宾语,前后动词形式需保持一致,故用动名词形式。故填driving。
3.答案 the
解析 考查冠词。因workforce后面有at Hounde which is run by Canada’s Endeavour Mining修饰限定,所以是特指,应用定冠词。故填the。
4.答案 eventually
解析 考查词性转换。此处修饰动词led,应用副词。故填eventually。
5.答案 had changed
解析 考查动词的时态。分析句子结构可知,change是acknowledged后面宾语从句中的谓语动词,又因change发生在acknowledged之前,应用过去完成时。故填had changed。
6.答案 was trained
解析 考查动词的时态和主谓一致。分析句子结构可知,train是谓语动词,结合上文时态和并分析与主语the mother之间的关系可知,应使用一般过去时的被动语态形式,又因the mother是可数名词单数,所be动词用was。故填was trained。
7.答案 whose
解析 考查定语从句。空格处为定语从句的引导词,且修饰先行词trucks,又因先行词trucks与定语从句中wheels有所属关系,因此应该使用表示所属关系的关系代词whose引导。故填whose。
8.答案 but
解析 考查连词。前后两个分句间有明显的转折关系。故填but。
9.答案 to forget
解析 考查非谓语动词。encourage sb.to do...(鼓励某人做……)为固定搭配。故填to forget。
10.答案 of
解析 考查介词。根据句意可知,此处是介词短语“of their work”作后置定语修饰名词quality,表示一种所属关系。故填of。Period Four Integrated skills
