CJust five minutes of exercise a day in the great outdoors can improve mental health,according to a study released on Saturday.Policymakers should encourage more people to spend time in parks and gardens.Researchers from the University of Essex found that as little as five minutes of a"green activity"such as walking,gardening,cycling or farming can have great benefits.They enhance mood,mental health and self-esteem(自尊)."We believe that there would be a large number of benefits to people, society and to the costs of the health service if all groups of people were to self-medicate(自我治疗)more with green exercise,"Professor Jo Barton said in a statement about the study.It was published in the journal Environmental Science&Technology.Many studies have shown that outdoor exercise can reduce the risk of mental illness and improve a sense of well-being.But Jules Pretty and Jo Barton,who led this study,said that until now no one knew how much time was needed to be spent on green exercise for the benefits to show.Barton and Pretty looked at the facts from 1,252 people of different ages,genders(性别)and mental health condition taken from 10 existing studies in Britain.They analyzed activities such as walking,gardening,cycling,fishing, boating,horse-riding and farming.They found that the greatest health changes occurred in the young and the mentally ill,although people of all ages and social groups benefited.The largest positive effect on self-esteem came from five-minute"green exercise".All natural environments were beneficial,including parks in towns or cities, they said,but green areas with water appeared to have a more positive effect.38.The underlined word"enhance"in Paragraph 2 means_.A.prevent B.improve C.support D.protect39.What does Barton mainly want to show in Paragraph 3?A.The benefits of a green activity.B.The benefits of good health service.C.The attention paid to self-medication.D.The attention paid to green activities.40.What makes Barton and Pretty's study different from other similar ones?A.Showing the benefits of spending time outdoors.B.Showing the way of improving a sense of well-being.C.Showing the way of reducing the risk of mental illness.D.Showing the amount of time needed in green exercise.41.Which of the following affects self-esteem the most positively according to the study?A. Doing five-minute “green exercise.B. Living in parks in cities.C. Talking with the young.D. Helping the mentally ill. DA culture's values can be mirrored by its humor.Humor has been evaluated by many great minds such as Thomas Hobbes,who disliked humor,"Laughter is nothing else but sudden glory arising from some sudden thought of feeling far better than others."He thought humor to be a negative quality of human narrow-mindedness.However, Mordechai Gordon,PhD of Education,insists,"Humor allows us to view the world from an angle that is amusing rather than serious."I agree with Gordon.Learning to look at the world through humour is important.In the United States,every four years an election occurs.Without humor as a way to express their feelings,how else would Americans keep from clawing their eyes out and going the way of lemming? Television shows like“The Daily Showhave become important parts of American culture.They are mothering the masses by metaphorically airplane-ing politics into our mouths.They make politics fun.Of course,politics is only one type of humor.Social humor helps people through the twists andturns of the human condition.American pop culture promotes an unhealthy self-image.On the topic of self-image,Hari Kondabolu stands out.He has a joke about the popular musical group“The Pussycat Dolls,describing their hit song"Don't Chaas a negative representation of women.He points out an obvious offence in American culture.A study from Loyola University of Maryland has shown that humor is one determining factor for selecting a mating partner.Amongst other things,mates look for an outstanding funny bone in apotential partner.Of course,humor is not always used for good purposes.Humor can be linked to vulgarity andracism,but,like everything else,it has potential to unite human beings by allowing us to laugh atourselves,our failures and our connection with one another.Though life may seem tough and depressing at times,all I have to do is look in the mirror at myincreased wrinkles to know that there is a comedy out there that even Chaplin wasn't aware of.With that in mind,remember to laugh with humanity and sometimes at humanity.42.Hobbes believed that humor_.A.was only a way to laugh at others to make oneself feel betterB.resulted in narrow-mindedness of human beingsC.had the power to mirror personal glory and national valuesD.was for people to view the world from another angle43.What is the author's attitude towards political humor?A.Worried.
