阅读下列短文,从每题所给出的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。

  When you leave school,you can breathe sigh of relief(松口气) and leave learning behind,right? Wrong! Learning should last a lifetime.You exercise your body to stay strong,and you should exercise your mind to stay sharp.

  An English idiom says,“You can't teach an old dog new tricks.” But scientists have discovered that isn't true.Older people can learn,and they should,in order to keep their brain active.Now a new trend has begun in several states in the US that encourages learning.Adults can attend One Day University.They can spend a Saturday or Sunday hearing four 70-minute lectures.Each one is given by a top university professor.One of the original participants said,“It's like a health club for the brain.” Also,universities like MIT have made all of their courses and lectures available online for free! Libraries offer learning programs too.With so much available,there is no excuse not to learn!

  Learning is a habit.Don't leave it behind after you leave school.On the website lifehack.org,author Scott Young mentions several things to help you.

  Always have a book.It doesn't matter if you read fast or slow.Just read.If you read just one book a week,you'll read 52 over the course of a year.Think of the knowledge you'll gain!

  Practice it.As you read,do something with what you've learned.Don't just enjoy the mental exercise.Use the knowledge.If you read about painting,try it!

  Make a “to learn” list.Compose a “to learn” list for yourself.Maybe you want to speak better English,play the piano,or cook French food.Whatever interests you,put it on your list and then make the time to do it.

  Teach others.Whatever you learn,teach someone else.You'll not only help others but also understand what you’ve learned.

       Although there are no state controlled survival courses in Britain or the United States, there are various independent organizations offering similar activities.

       Students can participate in outdoor training courses through university clubs and societies. Anyone can register with such groups, which then organize courses, training and trips for all members.

       One of the most popular outdoor training programmes in both the US and Britain, is Outward Bound. The courses are to broaden minds through experiences that build confidence, self-esteem and character. As well as specialist courses such as canoeing, leadership skills and sailing, participants can take part in week long adventure training camps which include sports and survival training education skills.

       Michael Williams, an American student, took part in an Outward Bound course last year. He said: “We learned lots of first aid skills, lots of natural history, lots of environmental facts, and participated in a wildlife preservation programme. Beyond that, my favorite skills learned were sailing and rock climbing.”

       Courses can last up to 40 days and are open to anyone over the age of 14. Students must be in general good health, but do not need to be experienced in outdoor-sports. There is no selection process; everyone is welcome, although new participants are advised to pick a course matching their physical capacity.

Another similar organization is the UK Survival School, which includes courses on learning to live with the environment, sailing and winter survival. On a basic survival weekend students will learn how to get water and food , how to make fire and cook with it , to find and build a shelter , control survival life support , how to cross rivers , to send off a distress(危急)signal , and to use compasses by day and night .

       Outward Bound believes that participants will “use mind and body traveling some of the Earth’s roughest wildness areas.”

2.       is not what Outward Bound courses aim at.

       A.Building members’ character                 B.Broadening members’ horizon

       C.Building members’ confidence               D.Building up members’ health

3.What can be inferred from the passage?

       C.All the Outward Bound courses are limited to a month.
