　　A 15-year-old girl has walked across an Arctic(北极的)island quicker than her father －one of Britain’s top explorers．Her name is Alicia Hempleman-Adams．

　　Alicia took 10 days to walk and ski 240 kilometers across Baffin Island in northeastern Canada．Her success has made her the youngest person to complete the crossing on foot and skis．However, this isn’t her first world record．At 8, she was brought to meet her father at the end of his 600-mile journey to the North Pole and became the youngest person ever to reach the place．

　　As an explorer, Mr．Hempleman-Adams knew well how hard it was for his daughter to gain such a success．

　　He said, “Because I’ve done the route．I know all the dangers．I didn’t sleep for days knowing she was out there and thinking of all the things that could have gone wrong．What she’s achieved is really great．This teenager girl is only one hundred and five pounds and being that thin you feel the cold more．”

　　Mr．Hempleman-Adams said that he was very proud of Alicia but also a bit ‘angry’ that his daughter had completed the journey faster than him．

　　During the trip, the 15-year-old girl met a lot of difficulties．Her most frightening moment came when she and her teammates, including her PE teacher Jo Simmons, had to cross a lake covered with a thin layer(层)of ice．

　　At the end of her trip, Alicia said that she was glad to have returned．“It was really great to get back to society and a hot shower,” she said．“It was quite weird(怪异)out there when there was nothing around － no buildings, no people, no animals, and nothing else．”

　　Will the young girl start a job in exploration later?No．“I want to try other things first,” she said．

  Just five minutes of exercise a day outdoors can improve mental health, according to a study.

   Researchers from the University of Essex, UK have found that as little as five minutes of a “green activity” such as walking, gardening, cycling or farming could help to improve mood and increase self-esteem (自信).

  Many studies have shown that outdoor exercise can reduce the risk of mental illness and improve a sense of well-being, but the new study, led by Jules Pretty and Jo Barton, was the first to determine how much time needed to be spent on green exercise for the benefits to show.

   Barton and Pretty looked at data from 1,252 people of different ages, genders (性别) and mental health status (情况) taken from 10 studies in Britain.

   They analyzed their different outdoor activities including walking, gardening, cycling, fishing, boating, horse-riding and farming in locations such as a park, garden or nature trail (路径).

   They found that the mental health changes were seen after just five minutes. With longer periods of time exercising in a green environment, the positive effects were more apparent.

   Looking at men and women of different ages, the researchers found the health changes were particularly strong in the young and the mentally ill.

   Green and blue

   A bigger effect was seen with exercise in an area that also contained water – such as a lake or river.

  “This is because historically we are drawn to water to survive and it is in our genetic (遗传的) make-up to be at one with nature,” the researchers wrote in their report.

   Pretty said those who were generally inactive, or stressed, or with mental illness would probably benefit the most from “green exercise”.

   “Employers, for example, could encourage staff in stressful workplaces to take a short walk at lunchtime in the nearest park to improve mental health.”

   He also said exercise programs outdoors could benefit youth offenders.

How is the study this article refers to different from other studies?

  A. It involved more people.

  B. It took longer to finish the research.

  C. It determined the exact amount of time needed.

  D. It was led by just two researchers.

What can we conclude from the findings of the study?

  A. Just five minutes of “green exercise” daily can help improve mental health.

  B. Gardeners and farmers do not need “green exercise”.

  C. Walking in a park with a lake will weaken the effect.

  D. “Green exercise” is not suitable for the mentally ill.

. According to Pretty, _______ would probably benefit the most from “green exercise”.

  A. stressed, inactive people B. office workers

  C. youth offenders            D. women and children

What is the main problem discussed in this article?

  A. Physical well-being.       B. Outdoor exercise.

  C. Mental illness.            D. Harmony with nature.
