UNIT 2　HEALTHY LIFESTYLE
Ⅰ.阅读理解(每小题2.5分)
A(2025河北承德联考)
The early 19th century French writer Jean-Anthelme Brillat-Savarin,famous for his observations about the pleasures of food and eating,beautifully summarized the positive power of eating outdoors.
He called outdoor dining,“perfect freedom,” in which “the universe is diners’ drawing room and the sun their lamp.” He continues,noting that eating outdoors,people “have appetite,nature’s special gift,which lends to such a meal the liveliness unknown indoors,however beautiful the indoor surroundings.”
Research supports Brillat-Savarin’s poetic insights with suggestions that eating outdoors can offer benefit of stress reduction.This stands to reason,given that studies have shown that as little of 20-minute outdoors—with or without food and drink—can lower the stress hormone cortisol (激素皮质醇).
In a food context,this lower stress level helps us pay attention to what we’re eating.We enjoy and taste food in a more focused way than when we’re inside.Eating with attention,the wellness writer Mitra Malek notes,increases both concentration and joy:“Being mentally present when we eat...helps us better notice how pleasurable food is.” If you’ve ever thought that even a simple sandwich tastes better at the beach,you naturally understand the connection between fresh,open air and the mental space to enjoy every bite.
Research also shows that eating outdoors can heighten immunity (免疫力).Our immune systems are better equipped to resist the attack of diseases when we spend time in nature.One Japanese study linked time in the woods increased immune-boosting cells called NK cells,with the benefit lasting up to seven days after the natural experience.
As you taste a crisp salad,a dish of ice cream or a meal fresh off the grill (烤架),take the time to congratulate yourself for choosing to eat in Brillat-Savarin’s universal outdoor drawing room,investing in your health and wellness—and just enjoying the beautiful world in which you live.
1.What does Brillat-Savarin mean by saying outdoor dining provide “perfect freedom”
A.Human can feel close to nature.
B.People can get more diet freedom.
C.Life is independent of the environment.
D.Beautiful surroundings matter.
2.Why do researchers highly recommend eating outdoors
A.It can increase the stress hormone cortisol.

B.It makes us more focused on the food.
C.It makes us enjoy the surroundings more.
D.It exercises our immune system’s strength.
4.What does the author encourage readers to do when eating outdoors
A.Care about the weather.
B.Rush through their meals.
C.Appreciate the experience.
D.Eat salads and ice cream.
B(2024广东茂名二模)
Tai chi is known to increase flexibility and improve balance.Now,new research suggests it’s better than more vigorous aerobic (有氧的) exercise for lowering blood pressure in people with prehypertension (高血压前期).
In the new study,researchers in China randomly assigned 342 adults with prehypertension to one of two groups.The average age of participants was 49.Roughly half the people participated in guided aerobic exercise,including jogging,climbing stairs,and cycling.The other half was trained to practice tai chi.Both groups got hour-long sessions four times a week.
After 12 months,those in the tai chi group saw bigger drops in their blood pressure than those in the aerobic exercise group.What’s more,nearly 22% of the people who practiced tai chi saw their blood pressure fall to within normal range,compared with nearly 16% of people in the aerobic exercise group.And fewer patients in the tai chi group went on to develop hypertension than in the aerobic exercise group.
So how does tai chi help lower blood pressure “The practice tends to stimulate more of a response from the Parasympathetic Nervous System (副交感神经系统) or PNS for short,” says Ruth Taylor-Piliae,a professor at the University of Arizona’s College of Nursing.The PNS is the network of nerves that relaxes your body after periods of stress or danger.
“The PNS helps us relax everything,and I think it is the response that is lowering blood pressure,” says Ruth Taylor-Piliae.“I think it’s also the meditative quality of tai chi.”
The practice is appealing as a form of exercise because it requires little space or equipment.“I think the beauty of tai chi is that you don’t have to own a special gym membership;you don’t have to buy special clothing,” Ruth Taylor-Piliae says.“Once you learn tai chi,you can do it anytime,anyplace.And it does provide that calming,relaxing effect.”
5.What is the main focus of the research in the text
A.The impact of prehypertension on health.
B.The benefits of aerobic exercise on health.
C.The effect of tai chi on lowering blood pressure.
D.The role of the Parasympathetic Nervous System in exercise.
6.What can we infer about the study from paragraphs 2 and 3
A.Tai chi group gained more benefits.
B.Participants were adults chosen at random.
C.Age and gender were taken into consideration.
D.Aerobic exercise group hardly developed hypertension.
7.According to Ruth Taylor-Piliae,which is the key factor in tai chi’s impact on blood pressure
A.Responses from the PNS.
B.Increased intensity of exercise.
C.Activation of the nervous system.
D.Requirements of special equipment for practice.
8.What does Ruth Taylor-Piliae think of tai chi
A.Costly.　　　 B.Convenient.
C.Instructive. D.Demanding.
