How much physical activity do you do in a week Are you getting enough exercise 1. For example, people who exercise regularly are less likely to suffer from many diseases.Regular exercise reduces the risk of early death by 30%.It also improves your sleep quality.
Today, most adults are much less active than in the past because our jobs are far less physical than the work our grandparents used to do.2. This lack of regular physical activity means people burn fewer calories than in the past, so we need to do something to consume(消耗) our energy.Experts think adults need to do 2.5 hours of moderate exercise per week.3.

Experts in nutrition(营养) suggest that we should eat at least five different kinds of vegetables and fruit a day.They are very necessary for our health and help our bodies work well.They can help reduce(减少) the risk of getting ill.There are a lot of vegetables and fruit to choose from and they taste delicious.1.
It's easy to buy our food from the local supermarket,so why do we go to the trouble of growing our own Here are several good reasons:
2. You can pick and eat it at once.When you have tried it, you will agree that vegetables and fruit that are eaten straight from the garden taste better than anything you can buy in a supermarket.
You may want to cut down on your “food miles”—the distance that a product has travelled before it reaches your kitchen.Many food packages are flown halfway across the earth.3.
Homegrown food is likely to be healthier.Food producers often use fertilizers(化肥) and pesticides(农药) which can end up in your food.If you grow your own, things are different.4. You might also choose to grow some traditional vegetables and fruit.These often have more of the vitamins, minerals(矿物质) and protein(蛋白质) that keep you healthy.
5. And you can grow your own even if you only have a small backyard or a balcony(阳台).Some food can grow well in pots, including lettuce, tomatoes, potatoes and carrots.You can recycle plastic bottles and cups to grow something.Just make sure there are holes for drainage(排水) and a small plate under them to catch drops of water.
Happy gardening!
A.Best of all,you can grow your own!
B.But where to grow your own is a problem.
C.That's not so good for you,or for the planet.
D.Food that you grow yourself is always fresh.
E.If you have a large garden,growing your own is easy.
F.You can control what goes on and into the food you eat.

To many people,art is a human expression of creativity.But in recent years,you may have read news about artificial intelligence(AI) creating its own art,such as painting or writing poems.Some people worry that AI might someday replace(替代) artists.
But this worry seems to be unnecessary,at least for now.Many artists today are turning AI into a useful tool.Instead of replacing artists,AI is bringing artists more possibilities.
A piece of music created by AI recently attracted attention.AI was used to create the music based on the protein(蛋白质) structure of COVID-19.The music lasted nearly two hours.The project was led by Markus Buehler,an American musician and MIT professor(教授) of engineering.He assigned(指定) a unique note(独特的音符) to each amino acid(氨基酸) in the protein.The AI then translated these notes into music.
Listeners found the project “mind-blowing”.“It allows me to see the virus in a new way,” said one listener.This surprising combination(结合) between science and art could not be achieved without AI.As The Verge wrote,“AI helps artists play around in unpredictable ways,creating things beyond(超过) what they have ever thought was possible before.”
Apart from creating imaginative works,AI can also take care of repetitive(重复乏味的) tasks for artists.For example,in the comic and cartoon industries,there are now AI tools that can automatically(自动) color in black-and-white line drawings.Although the results can be unpredictable and require a little cleanup,it can give artists room to experiment,by cutting down the time it takes to color each picture.
As Peter Ward wrote for The Culture Trip,“Art of every kind has always been influenced by technological developments.” AI can become a useful tool to bring change to the art world if it's welcomed and not unfairly feared.
1.According to the passage,AI can't now.
A.write poems B.paint C.replace artists D.create music
2.Which of the following is NOT true according to the third and fourth paragraphs
A.AI created a piece of music about COVID-19.
B.Many of AI's art creations are beyond artists' imagination.
C.Science and art can be combined with the help of AI.
D.Markus Buehler was not a professor of engineering,but a musician.
3.The underlined phrase “Apart from” in the fifth paragraph can be replaced by “ ”.
A.Besides B.Instead of C.Because of D.According to
4.What's the main idea of the passage
A.Technological developments have greatly influenced people's daily life.
B.AI has been widely used in science research.
C.AI is bringing more help to the art world as a useful tool.
D.AI's creativity has caused more and more worries.

The world's highest highway tunnel(公路隧道),Mila Mountain Tunnel,was open to traffic on April 26th,2019,at an altitude(海拔)of over 4,750 meters above sea level in Southwest China's Tibet.
The two\|way tunnel is over 5.7 km long,which is a part of the 400\|km highway connecting Lhasa with Nyingchi.People started building the tunnel on the 5,018\|meter\|high Mila Mountain in 2015.And it was finished in 2019,helping shorten the 18\|km distance(距离) over the mountain to 5.7 km.
It wasn't easy to build the highest tunnel in China.Terribly cold weather and too little oxygen(氧气) were two main difficulties.Besides carrying everything to the building site(工地) was a great challenge for over 2,000 workers.

Paying for bus rides with plastic usually makes people think of plastic bus cards.But one Indonesian city has decided to accept plastic recyclable waste in place of money for city buses.
Surabaya,Indonesia's second largest city,located on the eastern end of the country's main island Java,made this decision in April 2018.Now,locals can pay for their bus rides by putting plastic cups or bottles directly on the bus.A two-hour bus ride costs 10 plastic cups or 5 bottles.
Indonesia is the second largest ocean plastic polluter,producing up to 2.4 million tons of plastic waste into the oceans every year according to a report.Only in Surabaya nearly 400 tons of plastic waste is produced every day.The head of Surabaya's transportation department(交通部门) said,“With this decision,we hope to raise public awareness about environment,especially people's awareness about plastic waste.”
Each city bus can collect up to 550 pounds of plastic bottles and cups every day.The collected bottles are sold to recycling companies and the money earned from it goes toward running the bus companies and providing money for green spaces in the city.This is certainly turning rubbish into a national treasure.
The decision is part of the city's purpose to become plastic waste-free by 2020.In order to encourage local people to take buses,the city also added the new Suroboyo buses.The new buses are air-conditioned,comfortable and easy for elderly and disabled passengers to get on and off.
The program is well received.People in Surabaya said,“We can reduce waste so it doesn't pile up at home because we can just bring it in and make good use of it.It is a win-win situation.”
This type of program can be a model for other cities worldwide and encourage citizens to recycle their plastic waste.
