21、 There are many therapies (疗法) for depression, including medical treatment, psychotherapy and talk therapy. Having a range of treatment choices is a good idea because no single treatment works equally well for each of millions of sufferers. Choosing the most suitable treatment is important to them. Now researchers say a new therapy proven to relieve depression should be added to the established treatments. It's called nature therapy. “Interacting with nature can have positive effects on those with depression,” says Ethan Kross, PhD, an expert who has studied the nature-depression link.
A little exposure to nature helps all of us get our energy back, and it may have special benefit for those who are depressed. “It seems that, from our work, the restorative effect of nature seems to be stronger for individuals with depression,” says Marc Berman, PhD, an assistant professor of psychology at the University of Chicago. That might be because they feel mentally exhausted, and being in nature reenergizes them. However, Dr. Berman has a strong warning. “We're not arguing that interacting with nature should replace clinically proven treatments for depression,” he says, “Nor should those with clinical depression try to treat themselves.”
However, Berman and others say, interactions with nature could serve as a very effective supplementary treatment. Compared to adults with depression walking for 50 minutes in an urban setting, those who took a 50-minute walk in a natural setting were less depressed and had better memory skills.
Why does nature hold this special effect? Berman says, “In a natural environment, we can choose to think or not, and this choice is believed to help us rest our brains. You can then pay attention later, when you need to.” He adds, “It gives people more ability to concentrate, which is a big problem for those with depression.” Nature provides an effective setting for resting our brains, unlike urban setting. Even in the most peaceful urban environment, you have to pay attention to such things as traffic and stoplights.
【1】What can we learn about depression therapies from paragraph 1?
A.They focus on physical activity. B.They pay no attention to interactions.
C.They mainly depend on natural environment. D.They need to be tailored to different patients.
【2】How does nature benefit patients with depression？
A.By replacing clinic treatment. B.By making them feel energetic.
C.By reminding them to rest in time. D.By covering up their mental problems
【3】What does the underlined word “supplementary” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A.Essential. B.Traditional. C.Controversial. D.Additional.
【4】What is the text mainly about?
A.An urban setting of restoring energy.
B.The positive role of nature in treating depression.
C.The popularity of using multiple ways to treat diseases.

22、Important Facts about SHINGRIX
What is SHINGRIX?
●SHINGRIX is an FDA-approved vaccine（疫苗）for the prevention of shingles（带状疱疹）in adults 50 years and older.
●SHINGRIX is not used to prevent chickenpox.
What is shingles and what causes it?
●Shingles is a painful skin rash caused by the same virus that causes chickenpox. 99% of people over the age of 50 carry this virus. After a person recovers from chickenpox, the virus stays inactive in the body. As you age, your immune system starts to naturally decline, increasing your risk of the virus reactivating and causing shingles. 1 out of 3 people will get shingles in their lifetime.
How does SHINGRIX work?
●SHINGRIX is a shingles vaccine that works to boost your body's protection against shingles.
How is SHINGRIX given?
●SHINGRIX is a 2-dose vaccine series. The second dose should be given between 2 and 6 months after the first dose. It is important to complete the 2-dose series.
Who should not get SHINGRIX?
●You should not receive SHINGRIX if you are allergic to any of its ingredients or had an allergic reaction to a previous dose of SHINGRIX.
What are the potential side effects?
●The most common side effects are pain, redness, and swelling at the injection site, muscle pain, tiredness, headache, shivering, fever and upset stomach.
Additional important information
●SHINGRIX was not studied in pregnant or nursing women. Tell your healthcare provider if you are pregnant or are breastfeeding.
●Ask your healthcare provider about the risks and benefits of SHINGRIX. Only a healthcare provider can decide if SHINGRIX is right for you.
Need more information?
●To learn more about SHINGRIX, talk to your healthcare provider.

23、 We’ve all been told to dress warmly or we’ll catch cold. But science says the common cold is caused by the virus, not the weather. Actually, according to researchers at Yale University, there just might be something to this old wives’ tale.
For decades, researchers have known that the virus replicates (复制) more readily in cooler environments, such as the nose, rather than at the warmer core body temperature. The reason for this, explains Ellen Foxman, an assistant professor at Yale University School of Medicine, long remained a mystery. Scientists didn’t know whether the virus itself worked better at colder temperatures, or the immune system worked worse. “No one could find anything,” she says.
Then Foxman and her colleagues studied what’s called the born immune system, which is present in every cell, and how it responds to various temperatures when the virus is present. In the lab, they examined airway cells from mice and found that the immune system produced fewer chemical substances called interferons at lower temperatures, allowing the cold virus to flourish.
In a study published this year, they found supporting results in human cells: At the warmer core body temperature, born immune systems that block viral growth are more active, and can stop and kill viruses. Now the team is trying to better understand the defenses the body uses to prevent the virus.
While wearing a scarf around your nose to warm it up might help prevent a cold, Foxman recommends washing your hands so you don’t pass the virus to your eyes, nose, or mouth in the first place. “If the virus isn’t in your nose, it can’t cause infection,” she says.
【1】What does the underlined sentence in the first paragraph mean?
A.Listen to the elders. B.The tale makes sense.
C.The tale is interesting. D.The research is useless.
【2】What did the Foxman team find?
A.The virus increased in warmer environments.
B.The mice was more active in warmer conditions.
C.The immune system produced more antivirus in warm air.
D.A chemical in the immune system can stop and kill virus.
【3】What does the Foxman team suggest to prevent the cold?
A.Wearing a scarf. B.Dressing warmly.
C.Washing the hands. D.Stay warm in winter.
【4】What is the text mainly about?
A.Cold weather causes cold. B.Tips on protecting immune system.
C.Cold impact the body’s immune system. D.Many viruses can cause the common cold.

26、阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
I arrived at the pool hall on Wednesday with a heavy heart. Teams from other schools were already suited and warming up by the pool or in the water. The bleachers (露天看台) were full.
“I don’t think I can do this.” I said, twisting the belt of my bag.
“You’ll be fine, and I will be right here watching.” Mom said, dropping an arm around my shoulder and squeezing.
I bit my lip and looked out over the other swimmers. “You sure?”
Mom leaned forward. “Remember, it’s just you. Don’t worry about any of the other swimmers. Just swim your race.”
“OK.”
The warmups and preparations were over before I knew it, and the first round of swimmers were up on the blocks.
I felt sick. I watched my competitors swim, and they looked so strong and skillful in the water. The events screamed by, one after the other. My knees shook as each event clicked closer to mine. The knots in my stomach twisted and coiled like a bag of ropes.
Then the one-hundred breaststroke (蛙泳) was announced.
Nerves choked my throat.
“Just swim your race. Don’t think about the other swimmers.” I repeated it over and over in my mind.
I bent forward on my block in line with the rest of the swimmers, waiting. My body tensed up like a spring. My heart pounded in my ears.
The buzzer (蜂鸣器) sounded. I sprang forward, diving into the water and kicking like a dolphin. Then my head broke free of the water. Just count strokes. I kept my eyes focused on the black line in front of me, ignoring the splashes of movement on either side. Pull. Breathe. Kick. I hit the end of the pool and then my first turn came. I took a deep a breath and turned over, pushing hard against the wall and bursting back the way I came.
