3 . 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

Wantang Primary School,     1     (locate) in Honghe Hani and Yi Autonomous Prefecture, Yunnan Province, came into the spotlight after all     2     (it) 536 students cleared the myopia (近视) test.    3     (surprising), no nearsighted student was found in the school.

A national myopia survey     4     (conduct) from September to December 2020, which found 52.7% of Chinese students had myopia in 2020, 2.5 percentage points     5     (high) than that in 2019.The rate was as high as 80.5%among high school students and 14.3% among 6-year-olds.

Against this situation,    6     Wantang Primary School has achieved is no less than a miracle.

Reports say students there follow     7     healthy routine with three hours of outdoor games every day, and at least 10.5 hours of sleep. They are not allowed to carry smartphones to school. The most effective of all these     8     (measure) is the three hours of outdoor games every day. Exposure to sun is known to decrease the severity of myopia, because natural light stimulates the retina (视网膜) and releases dopamine (多巴胺). As students adjust their eyes     9     different light patterns while playing outside, from very bright to less bright, it helps prevent myopia.

In contrast, when children spend a long time     10     (study) indoors, their eyes cannot get enough sunlight and therefore produce less dopamine, which leads to them getting myopia.

Other schools should let their students play outdoors more often.

5 . Walking might seem simple. “But it’s not,” explains Peggy Cawthon, a professor at Harvard Medical School. “It’s an amazingly complex behavior when we try to understand how to improve our lives as we age.”     1    ? Here are a few ideas.

Don’t stop exercising

Cawthon agrees that the worst thing a person can do is to stop exercising. “You’ll feel the effects almost immediately,” says Cawthon. Sitting for hours leaves her uncomfortable, and it’s the days when she types that her arthritis (关节炎) doesn’t cause much pain.     2    .

Train yourself to walk with skill

To truly improve your walking, you need to think like an athlete. Imagine you want to play tennis, but you have a bad backhand. Playing lots of tennis won’t fix the problem, Cawthon says.     3    . It’s the same thing with walking.

Give your brain a boost (激励)

    4    . So don’t forget that when working out your fitness plan. Cawthon has been studying an area of the brain related to motivation (动机) and executive function. Subjects with a boost walk more steps on average than the control group, and they have been maintaining that even several months later.

    5    

So when should we face the music about our mobility? There is no final answer for when walking problems begin to come up. “You should be as active as you can at any age,” Cawthon says, noting that people who are healthy in their 20s and 30s are best equipped to deal with future age-related challenges. “The best time to start is now. Next best is tomorrow,” she says.

A．Start planning now

B．Be in pretty good shape

C．You need to improve your skill

D．So what steps should we take to do it right

E．How can you sweat your way to good health

F．It is a helpful reminder that our bodies need action

G．Basically, the body part controlling everything is your brain

7 . 微写作
锻炼有一系列的好处。无论你是仅仅在公园里走一段不短的距离，在乡下骑自行车还是去健身房都不仅会让你感到更为精力充沛，还会提升你的整体身体健康状况。积极参加那种能让你呼吸吃力的运动会增加你的心肺功能。另外，经常锻炼会因为促进你的肌肉和骨骼的发展而让你的身体更为强壮，也能帮助你维持一个健康的体重。此外，锻炼对你的心理健康也有好处。首先，经常锻炼需要毅力，没有毅力你总有要放弃的欲望。第二，运动会激励你保持一个积极的、平衡的态度，每个人都有自己的起起落落，成功和失败。参加一项竞技性体育会有助于你明白赢得一场比赛并不能让你比他人更优秀，也会明白失败只是一次暂时的失败，我强烈推荐你立刻开始锻炼。
要求：词数150左右。

10 . The Netherlands is the only country in the world with more bicycles than residents. By 2022, the Netherlands has had a total of about 23 million bicycles, with an ownership rate of 1.35 bikes per person. One study published by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) reports that in the Netherlands cycling prevents about 6,500 early deaths each year, and that Dutch people have 1.5 years longer life expectancy (预期寿命) due to cycling.

“The time spent cycling was about 74 minutes per week for Dutch adults aged 20 to 90 years old. The time was fairly stable over adulthood and reached its apex in the early days of retirement, in one’s 60s. The death rate reduction, which was a direct result of the average time spent cycling for a certain age group, was therefore also the highest among the seniors who just retired,” said Jeremy Smith, an expert from NIH.

What is it that makes cycling so beneficial? Obviously, cycling is a form of exercise. It is a great form of cardio (有氧的) exercise, which gets your heart pumping and helps strengthen the heart muscles. Doing cardio exercise may also help lower your blood pressure.

Furthermore, solid evidence proves the link between cycling and better thinking skills. Even younger adults claim that a bike ride helps shift their thinking to a higher level — and research backs them up. In one small study, young men are required to cycle for 30 minutes every day for 3 weeks. They also completed a series of cognitive (认知的) tests before and afterward. After cycling, they scored higher on memory, reasoning and planning, and they were able to finish the tests more rapidly than before.

Besides all the benefits mentioned above, cycling, as many Dutch put it, is a way of life. In their simplest form, bikes are tools for travelling. But they’re so much more. They are cognitive improvement, environmental protection, satisfaction and an expression of freedom. They bring people of the same passion together and connect them to a greater journey of life.
