It is not a secret that spending time outdoors is good for us.The more we learn about the benefits of being in nature, the more sense it makes to get outside.

【1】New research suggests that kids may learn better when they are surrounded by greener spaces.Green spaces are spaces filled with Vegetation-like trees,flowers and other plants.

But these days,outdoor time is competing for a child’s attention with indoor activities.Children may find it difficult to resist computers,television and electronic games.【2】All these indoor activities can hurt a child’s physical and mental health.

Doctor Payam Dadvand and his team at the Centre for Research in Environmental Epidemiology in Barcelona study the environment effects on health and learning.

The researchers used information from satellites to learn how much green space surrounded each school.Over one year, the children took computerized tests for four times.【3】They found that the children with higher contact with green space had better ability to memorize.They were also more attentive.【4】More trees means less air pollution.

【5】Lisa Freund is an expert in child psychology for the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development.She says more studies are needed to learn the Health and Human Development.She says more studies are needed to learn the reasons that vegetation in and around schools improves mental ability.

B.This could be especially important for school children.

C.Approximately one half of the world population lives in cities.

D.The question of why green spaces affect learning is a new one.

E.The research suggests good air quality is the main reason for the results.

Melville’s first two novels,Typee and Omoo,were widely read and financially successfully.They were both exciting tales of adventures at sea and experiences with people in foreign lands.Melville became quite famous.However,upon the publication of his third book,Mardi,Melville’s popularity began to weaken.He was no longer interested in telling tales of pure adventure,and his writing took on a style that alienated（使疏远）the general reading public of his time.

Melville published Moby Dick in October of 1851 it was an original novel,combining aspects of sociology and philosophy,which confused readers by its complex symbolism.The book sold poorly.

Melville’s next book,Pierre,was almost completely disregarded by the public.Debt frustration and ill health finally forced Melville to take a low-paying job as a customs inspector.Eventually,Melville abandoned prose（散文）and began to write poetry.

The Civil War is the main subject of Melville’s poetry.He and his brother made a trip to the front line,and he published a book of poems,Battle-Pieces and Aspects of War,based on this experience.

Melville died in 1891 at the age of 72 at this point,his work had been completely forgotten by the public.His talent was to go unrecognized for the next thirty years.Then,in 1920s, his reputation began to improve as critics and readers rediscovered his work.Today Moby Dick is one of the best-known novels ever penned by an American author.

● Respect their belongings.

One important way to show respect is to show regard for the things important to your parents. For younger children, this may mean not touching jewelry or other valuable things. For grown children, respect may mean returning a borrowed tool in good condition and on time. Lack of respect for a parent's belongings is a violation(违反，侵害) of personal boundaries(边界，界限). 【2】 And never borrow things without asking first.

● Punctuality .

【3】 Therefore, always be on time. For teenagers, showing up on time means coming home by curfew（宵禁）. Adult children should show up on time for family dinners or events, or to pick a parent up for a medical appointment. Call if you're going to be late because parents worry about children, no matter their age.

●【4】

Remembering birthdays, anniversaries and other special days is a sign that you honor your parents. Make plans to take them to lunch or dinner or bake a cake or cookies. Most parents don't expect expensive gifts, but a handmade gift is always appreciated .A phone call from a grown child who lives too far for a visit is a welcome sign of respect.

● Be kind.

Kind words and affection are simple ways to show respect. Tell your parents you love them. Listen and allow your parents to speak without interruption. Show a sincere interest in what your parents have to say. Be patient with your parents and don't rush them. Never talk back or be rude or disrespectful. Acknowledge your parents' achievements. 【5】

A. Don't take advantage of your parents' kindness and generosity.

B. Be a good listener.

C. Lateness indicates a lack of respect.

D. Treat your parents the way you would like to be treated.

E. Being respectful helps build positive relationships with others.

F. And they love you unconditionally throughout your life.

G.Celebrate with them.

My neighbor Trevor was very serious about sport. In the morning, he usual goes cycling but he sometimes goes swimming at the swimming pool. At works, he does exercise during his coffee breaks and he sometimes plays golf in his office! In lunchtime, he plays tennis. Then, in the evening, he practices judo (柔道) for hour or two at the sports center. At the weekend, he also does so much sport as possible. She plays football on Saturdays and basketball on Sundays. In the holidays, he goes skiing in the winter or sailing in the summer. He is a man who love sport more than anyone I have ever been seen!
