21、The latest thing in architecture is green buildings—covering walls and roofs with a carpet of plants to prevent heat, absorb rain and provide a home for wildlife. Many such buildings need complex systems for holding and irrigating the soil.【1】

Ivy is a group of evergreen climbing plants, whose power to live is hard to beat. Firstly, it can live in almost any surroundings, whether in shade or full sun.【2】It grows well in both dry and damp soil. Moreover, it doesn't need supports as it grows aerial roots that can be attached to most things. For these reasons, ivy can be widely grown to beautify an ugly wall or a fence.【3】It is a heaven for bees and butterflies in summer and its berries are a valuable food source for birds in winter.

However, there are some concerns about growing ivy. Ivy has a reputation for damaging buildings, but according to the UK's Royal Horticultural Society, this doesn't usually happen unless the walls already have cracks.【4】But Blanusa at the University of Reading, UK, who has examined the effects of plant climbers, finds that ivy raises humidity next to the wall by only a small amount.

【5】Once ivy has been in the ground for a few years, it can grow out of control. Just don't let it get the better of you.

A．Growing ivy can bring added benefits.

B．Therefore, I strongly oppose growing ivy.

C．The other fear is that it can make walls damp.

D．Besides, it can be tolerant of various kinds of soil.

E．Anyway, you do need to be careful in growing ivy.

F．An ivy-covered wall will slightly warm a room in winter.

G．However, there is a much easier approach: growing some ivy.

22、Crossing your legs is an extremely common habit; most people don't even notice that they're doing it when they sit down. While you may find it comfortable to sit with one knee crossed over the other, it might be causing health problems that you are not aware of.

A study published in Blood Pressure Monitoring stated that sitting with your legs crossed can increase your blood pressure. The reason for this is that the blood in your legs has to work against gravity to be pumped back to your heart and that crossing one leg over the other increases resistance(阻力), making it even harder for the blood to circulate. This causes your body to increase your blood pressure to push the blood back to the heart. You won't feel any immediate effects, but repeated, drawn-out increases in blood pressure can cause long-term health problems. So, planning to sit for a long period of time? Don't keep your legs crossed.

Crossing your legs at the knee can also cause pressure on the major nerve in your leg that passes just below your knee and along the outside of your leg, explains Richard Graves, a medical expert. This pressure can cause numbness and temporary paralysis (麻痹) of some of the muscles in your foot and leg, preventing you from being able to raise your ankle—what we know as that “pins and needles” sensation. While the feeling of discomfort may only last a minute or two, repeatedly crossing your legs until they feel numb can cause permanent nerve damage.

So next time you sit down, try to get yourself in the habit of sitting with both of your feet on the floor. Not only will it help your posture and stability, but it will also save your health in the long run.

【1】What can we learn about crossing one's legs?

A．It is a very bad social habit.

B．It is usually practiced on purpose.

C．It can do harm to people's health.

D．It can make others feel uncomfortable.

【2】According to the study, sitting with your legs crossed can______.

A．affect your blood pressure

B．resist gravity effectively

C．lead to heart attacks easily

D．improve the function of legs

【3】In the third paragraph "pins and needles" probably means______.

A．slight sharp pains

B．being a little nervous

C．serious muscle injuries

D．being highly flexible

【4】What is the main purpose of the text?

A．To compare common habits.

B．To give readers some advice.

C．To evaluate effects of an experiment.

D．To introduce research methods.

23、There are two important events in Mid-February of 2021: the start of the Year of the Ox and Valentine’s Day. Happiness and romance are in the air.
