We live in a fast-paced(快節(jié)奏的), technology-packed world where we spend most of our time indoors playing computer games or using social media(媒體). But do you remember when you spent most of your time outside, running, playing, and laughing with your friends?

Leaving your tech behind may seem difficult, but if you lose yourself in nature, you’ll probably forget all about it. Scientist Albert Einstein once said, “Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better.”

In the US, June is Great Outdoors Month. They want to get more kids outside to have active fun once again. Former(前任) US President Barack Obama wrote in a paper declaring(宣告) the day in 2012, “Nature offers each of us the chance to get active, discover something, and make our relationships with family and friends strong.”

The US Union Creek Resort website noted, “We all know how fast life can be, so it’s never too soon or too late to create happy memories that we will cherish and share forever.”

Besides making us feel happy, science supports the idea that outdoor activities can cut down stress. “Fresh air and sunlight have the largest advantages,” wrote Susanne Preston, a mental health expert at South University, US. “With increased exposure(暴露) to natural sunlight, incidents of seasonal affective disorder(季節(jié)性情緒失調(diào)) fall and the vitamin D in people’s skin helps to relax their moods(心情).”

What could be a better way to help out with daily stress than to enjoy the beauty of the great outdoors?

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容選擇最佳答案。

1.The underlined word “cherish” in the passage means “________” in Chinese.

A.歡呼 B.珍惜 C.振奮

2.The writer wants to tell us to ________.

We all need physical exercise. Exercise uses up food we eat and keeps the body energetic. If you exercise several times a week, you will stay happy and healthy.

Some Western countries, such as the United States, have problems with exercise. In the US, many people do not have enough exercise because it is hard for them. People have to work from morning to late afternoon, so they don’t have time to take exercise. They work in office buildings, sitting in chairs all day long in front of computers. It is impossible for them to get much exercise in this way.

Some Westerners can get exercise walking from their homes to work. However, most people cannot do this. It is too far from their homes to their offices. They have no choice but to drive to work. In fact, some have to drive one or two hours to their offices. This is not good in two ways. First, these people don’t have a chance to exercise because they are sitting in their cars for two to four hours each day. Second, driving is challenging especially in rush hours and needs too much attention. It makes a person very tired. So, when these people arrive home at night, they don’t want to take exercise after work.

Today, many people in the West are overweight, which causes health problems for them. Doctors say exercise can help people both lose weight and improve their health. So many people are trying to get more exercise. But it takes time to change, and when people don’t see a difference right away, they will lose patience and stop exercising.
