We all scream fr ice cream!
Ice cream may be universally appealing, but many cuntries have their wn versin f ice cream that’s ften nt called ice cream. Let’s learn abut these tasty “ice creams” arund the wrld and awaken yur inner child!
● Raspad, Mexic
Raspads are the Mexican versin f American snw cnes (冰沙). But while snw cnes are made using verly sweet syrup (糖浆), raspads have real fruits r fresh fruit juices. The sweet and cld treat is everywhere thrughut Mexic and sld at street carts (手推车) . Yu wn’t find Mexicans eating their raspads in cnes since they’re nly served in cups.
● Kakigri, Japan
It may be made f ice, but kakigri, the Japanese versin f ice cream, is mst definitely nt a snw cne. It melts in yur muth just like a creamy ice cream. Chefs make kakigri by shaving ice frm ice blcks until it builds int a sft pile. Then, syrups f varius flavrs, like green tea, strawberry, grape and meln, are added t the ice. Kakigri is almst always served in a bwl, and it’s nt unusual t find sweet shps ffering tppings as the final tuch, mst cmmnly red bean paste r fresh fruit.
● Gelat, Italy
Pizza and pasta aside, gelat is cnsidered t be Italy’s fd symbl. In fact, visiting the lcal gelateria is a way f life fr Italians. Italian gelat is lwer in fat than traditinal ice cream and is made with whle milk, eggs, sugar and flavring—chclate, hazelnut, pistachi (开心果) r vanilla (香草) ice cream mixed with pieces f chclate are the mst belved flavrs.
● Dndurma, Turkey
An ice cream that desn’t melt? Yes, that’s exactly what dndurma r Turkish ice cream is. Dndurma has an elastic texture (弹性口感) and buying dndurma is like watching a perfrmance. The men wh sell it wear traditinal Turkish clthes, twist and turn the ice cream until it lands int the cne t be served. Kids and adults get a kick ut f the shw.
21. What d Raspad and Kakigri have in cmmn?
A. They have an ice cream-like texture. B. They are usually sld at street carts.
C. They are made f real fruits. D. They are nt served in cnes.

I had always been fascinated by the use f natural treatments in healthcare. S, when I came acrss a lcal clinic that ffered curses in Traditinal Chinese Medicine (TCM) several mnths ag, I immediately signed up fr a ne-year curse.
On the first day f class, I was lking frward t what I was ging t learn. As the instructr explained the prcedure, I felt a little disturbed by the thught f needles being stuck int my skin. Hwever, I was determined t vercme my fear. Acupuncturist uses hair-thin needles t find specific areas n the bdy t treat pain r tensin the bdy may be experiencing, knwn t help with depressin, insmnia (失眠) and anxiety. The instructr tld us that an acupuncturist might request patients t prvide mre infrmatin abut their health, hw t treat them, and what pints are mst apprpriate fr them. We were taught hw t examine a patient’s tngue and pulse t gather evidence f any imbalances in the bdy. He shwed us hw t adjust the needle’s depth, as different rgans required different depths. The needles were nly a few millimetre thick and made f stainless steel, s they were slid and easy t switch ut.
In class, we als learned abut the phenmenn f acupuncture anesthesia (麻醉) where patients culd underg surgery withut cnventinal anesthesia using nly acupuncture. As we prgressed thrugh the curse, we learned abut herbs and their uses. We als discussed the effects f substances such as alchl, tbacc, and drugs n the bdy and hw they culd lead t severe anxiety and abuse.
TCM dates back t ancient China, and it is a widespread practice tday. It is fascinating t learn abut the symblism behind each rgan and hw they relate t different emtins and imbalances in the bdy. After a year f wrestling with the curse, I have nw graduated and put everything in place. Withut dubt, it has been ne f the mst fulfilling experiences in my life.
24. What made the authr decide t sign up fr a TCM curse?
A. His wrries abut health prblems. B. His interest in natural treatments.
C. An accidental visit t a lcal clinic. D. The increasing knwledge f TCM.
25. What did the instructr mainly teach in the first class?
A. The develpment f acupuncture. B. The way t perfrm acupuncture.
C. The requirement fr an acupuncture. D. The varius tls used in acupuncture.
26. Hw des the authr feel abut acupuncture after graduating frm the curse?
A. Easy. B. Cmplicated. C. Advanced. D. Wrthy.
27. What can be a suitable title fr the text?
A. An encunter with TCM B. A mdern change in TCM
C. A curse t imprve my fitness D. A special acupuncture treatment

Yu’re in the shwer. Yu grab the shwerhead. What d yu d? Yu sing.
Have yu ever wndered abut this phenmenn? Sme f us wuldn’t sing in public if smene paid us. Yet we’ll sing in the shwer withut embarrassment. Believe it r nt, there’s a scientific explanatin behind it.
First, let’s lk at why we’re relaxed enugh in the shwer t burst int sng. Think abut it: yu dn’t sing when yu’re sad (unless yu’re singing the blues, f curse). Fr many peple, shwer time is the nly time they’re alne all day. Yu’re in a warm, small, safe envirnment. Yu’re cmfrtable enugh t be yurself! When yu relax, yur brain releases dpamine (多巴胺), which can give yur creative juices an extra kickstart.
Warm water is rushing ver yu, and nw yu’re relaxed and feeling gd. It turns ut that singing makes yu feel even better. Singing, because f the breathing yu put int it, gets mre xygen int the bld. This gives yu better circulatin, which in turn imprves yur bdy and md. And because yu have t breathe a little deeper t belt ut a sng, yu get sme f the same relaxatin and mind-clearing benefits as meditatin (冥想). Anther neat thing is that when yu’re singing, yu really can’t think abut yur prblems—mre stress relief.
But the best thing abut singing in the shwer? The acustics (音响效果)! Yu can never ask fr a better sund system than a bathrm. Because bathrm tiles (墙砖) dn’t absrb sund, yur vice bunces back and frth arund the rm befre fading away, which makes yur vice hang in the air lnger. And because the shwer is a small space, it bsts yur vice, making yur singing sund mre pwerful. S yu will sund better than yu actually are, which is a cnfidence bst.
We dn’t sing in the shwer simply because we have “Call Me Maybe” stuck in ur heads. It turns ut we d it fr many reasns: stress relief, happiness, great acustics, r maybe just because we like t hear ur wn vices. Whatever the reasn, keep it up. It’s gd fr yu. And if yu’ve never tried it, pick a sng, grab the shwerhead and put n yur wn private cncert.
28. Why d many peple feel cmfrtable singing in the shwer?
A. The acustics are perfect in public places. B. Shwer time is relaxing and private.
C. Singing bsts stress levels. D. Shwering imprves vcal abilities.
29. What scientific effect cntributes t the urge t sing in the shwer?
A. Released dpamine due t relaxatin. B. Increased expsure t blues music.
C. Enhanced xygen absrptin frm water. D. Strengthened lung capacity.
30. Why des singing in the shwer help in relieving stress?
A. The bathrm’s small size encurages relaxatin.
B. Breathing while singing imprves circulatin.
C. Singing remves the need fr deep breaths.
D. Tile walls absrb sund and stress.
31. In which part f a website can we prbably read the text?
A. Science. B. Technlgy. C. Culture. D. Peple. 6

“I was nt exceptinal at all,” Claudia Gldin nce tld me f her time as an ecnmics PhD student at the University f Chicag. But as the curse prgressed, she said, “I felt like lightbulbs were ging n in my head.” On Octber 9 the brightness f thse lights was cnfirmed, as she was awarded the Nbel Prize in Ecnmics “fr having advanced ur understanding f wmen’s labur market utcmes”.
Gldin fund men relatively dull, at least as a tpic f study. Their labur was unifrm cmpared t that f wmen, wh might switch between caring fr children, tiling (辛苦工作) in the family businesses r sweating smewhere else. But this cmplexity was harder t measure. Accrding t America’s histrical statistics, fr example, their ccupatin was ften unhelpfully listed as “wife”. S Gldin set ut t measure their wrk prperly.
The standard pattern f develpment was nce that as cuntries gt richer, wmen were pulled int the labur market. But by painstakingly stitching tgether different data sets, Gldin established that America’s path was mre cmplicated, and that grwth in the 1800s cincided with wmen mving away frm wrk ther than dmestic labur.
Why? Fr a start, factry jbs were harder t cmbine with childcare than, say, sewing at hme. And richer families culd affrd t spare wmen the indignity f til. Gldin argued that stigma (污名) reinfrced this, r the idea that “nly a husband wh is lazy and neglectful f his family wuld allw his wife t d such labur.” Later the stigma faded—the ffice clerk jb f the 20th century was easier, and cnsistent with the impressin f a supprtive spuse. With the arrival f tight labur markets in the 1950s, discriminatry plicies against hiring married wmen were virtually abandned.
Tday, wmen still wrk and earn less than men. As scial nrms have shifted and real barriers have fallen, Gldin says that mst f the remaining gender gaps facing cllege-educated wmen are due t smething else. S-called “greedy jbs” reward rund-the-clck wrk and are cnflicting with being n call fr children. Perhaps men shuld als share the family burden and allw their partners t be mre prfessinally invlved instead.
32. Hw des Claudia Gldin find wmen’s dmestic labur?
A. Cmplicated t understand. B. Tricky t assess.
C. Less changeable than men’s wrk. D. Mre valuable than men’s career.
33. Which f the fllwing is the case fr American wmen in the 1800s?
A. They tk an active part in wrkfrce.
B. They were cmfrtable enugh nt t wrk.
C. They std a gd chance in ffice jbs.
D. They were still stuck in husehld chres.
34. Why des the authr mentin “greedy jbs” in paragraph 5?
A. T explain the current gender gaps.
B. T intrduce the emplyee reward system.
C. T call n men t stay at hme.
D. T expse the greedy nature f capitalists.
35. Which f the fllwing can be the best title fr the text?
A. Gender Pay Gap Research Wins the Nbel Prize in Ecnmics
B. Hw Gldin Transfrmed Our Understanding f Wmen’s Wrk
C. Wmen’s Century-Lng Jurney Tward Equality
D. D Greedy Jbs Cause the Gender Pay Inequality?

Walking has been cnsidered as ne f the best pssible exercises. Fr many peple, daily walking ffers massive and lng-term physical and mental benefits. 36 A Stanfrd University study fund that participants were mre creative when walking as ppsed t sitting.

Shinrin-yku, a cmmn frm f relaxatin in Japan, suggests that being in the frest and walking amng the trees there can lwer yur stress levels. 39 Research has shwn that immersin in nature arund yur neighbrhd r the discnnectin frm multimedia increased perfrmance n a creative prblem-slving task.
S instead f setting a fitness gal, why nt set a creativity gal that starts with walking utdrs? 40 Fr example, yu can turn ff yur phne and give yurself the chance t be present in the wrld, t hear cnversatins and natural sunds, and t ntice the way peple mve and the way the sun reflects in a lake.
Walk nt just fr exercise. Walk fr wnder.
A. Unfrtunately, yu ften fail t d it.
B. Engage mre clsely with yur surrundings.
C. The mvement aspect f walking is bviusly key.
D. Withut enugh energy, yu cannt wnder r create.
E. But t receive the benefits, yu d nt have t live in a frest.
F. This habit, hwever, isn’t just a beneficial pursuit but an element f innvatin.
G. Alternatively, yu can wander arund a park and bserve peple relaxing r birds singing.

All I did was shw my little sister hw t grw plants. Dig a hle. Put in a seed. Cver it with dirt. Water it. Wait. “See, Laynie,” I explained, “a whle plant will grw frm this tiny seed. All we have t d is water it.”
Laynie had her wn watering can s she culd “help” me in the garden. One day, after everything was watered, she ran t the fence and started sprinkling water n anther spt. I walked ver and saw a fresh patch f dirt near the fence.
“Did yu plant smething there?” I asked.
“Yes,” she said. “I’m grwing a pencil. My purple pencil gt t small, s I planted it.” “What? But, Laynie”
I shuld have explained things right then, but I just muttered, “Uh . . . I never grew ne befre.”
Later I gt what seemed like a great idea. I dug up Laynie’s pencil and “planted” a brand-new purple pencil. Laynie was really excited when she saw it. “My pencil grew!” she shuted.
A few days later, Laynie was watering n the same spt. Tw days later, new crayns sticking their pinty little heads ut, thanks t me. Laynie jumped up and dwn and yelled, “They lk like flwers!” She “picked” them and ran int the huse.
Next, Laynie grew an adult bear dll frm a tiny ne, a sup spn frm a teaspn, and a hand mirrr frm a piece f glass. When she claimed that she had grwn these things, I just kept my muth shut! Actually, it was fun trying t think f what shuld grw frm Laynie’s seeds. And it was cl t see her get excited.
One day I saw her patting dwn sme dirt near the fence again, s I knew she’d just planted smething. My heart drpped t my feet when she asked, “Hw lng des it take t grw a gldfish, Brad?” I culdn’t speak.
“Nt lng, I bet!” said Laynie. She knelt dwn t whisper “Grw, Mlly. Grw!” befre she skipped back t the huse.

My heart tightened. “I’m grwing sme frget-me-nts, s Mlly wn’t frget me,” she said. This time, I thught “the green thumb” wuld have a real harvest.

The Amazn rainfrest is the largest rainfrest in the wrld, and it cvers an area f 27 millin square miles.

We all scream fr ice cream!
Ice cream may be universally appealing, but many cuntries have their wn versin f ice cream that’s ften nt called ice cream. Let’s learn abut these tasty “ice creams” arund the wrld and awaken yur inner child!
● Raspad, Mexic
Raspads are the Mexican versin f American snw cnes (冰沙). But while snw cnes are made using verly sweet syrup (糖浆), raspads have real fruits r fresh fruit juices. The sweet and cld treat is everywhere thrughut Mexic and sld at street carts (手推车) . Yu wn’t find Mexicans eating their raspads in cnes since they’re nly served in cups.
● Kakigri, Japan
It may be made f ice, but kakigri, the Japanese versin f ice cream, is mst definitely nt a snw cne. It melts in yur muth just like a creamy ice cream. Chefs make kakigri by shaving ice frm ice blcks until it builds int a sft pile. Then, syrups f varius flavrs, like green tea, strawberry, grape and meln, are added t the ice. Kakigri is almst always served in a bwl, and it’s nt unusual t find sweet shps ffering tppings as the final tuch, mst cmmnly red bean paste r fresh fruit.
● Gelat, Italy
Pizza and pasta aside, gelat is cnsidered t be Italy’s fd symbl. In fact, visiting the lcal gelateria is a way f life fr Italians. Italian gelat is lwer in fat than traditinal ice cream and is made with whle milk, eggs, sugar and flavring—chclate, hazelnut, pistachi (开心果) r vanilla (香草) ice cream mixed with pieces f chclate are the mst belved flavrs.
● Dndurma, Turkey
An ice cream that desn’t melt? Yes, that’s exactly what dndurma r Turkish ice cream is. Dndurma has an elastic texture (弹性口感) and buying dndurma is like watching a perfrmance. The men wh sell it wear traditinal Turkish clthes, twist and turn the ice cream until it lands int the cne t be served. Kids and adults get a kick ut f the shw.
21. What d Raspad and Kakigri have in cmmn?
A. They have an ice cream-like texture. B. They are usually sld at street carts.
C. They are made f real fruits. D. They are nt served in cnes.

I had always been fascinated by the use f natural treatments in healthcare. S, when I came acrss a lcal clinic that ffered curses in Traditinal Chinese Medicine (TCM) several mnths ag, I immediately signed up fr a ne-year curse.
On the first day f class, I was lking frward t what I was ging t learn. As the instructr explained the prcedure, I felt a little disturbed by the thught f needles being stuck int my skin. Hwever, I was determined t vercme my fear. Acupuncturist uses hair-thin needles t find specific areas n the bdy t treat pain r tensin the bdy may be experiencing, knwn t help with depressin, insmnia (失眠) and anxiety. The instructr tld us that an acupuncturist might request patients t prvide mre infrmatin abut their health, hw t treat them, and what pints are mst apprpriate fr them. We were taught hw t examine a patient’s tngue and pulse t gather evidence f any imbalances in the bdy. He shwed us hw t adjust the needle’s depth, as different rgans required different depths. The needles were nly a few millimetre thick and made f stainless steel, s they were slid and easy t switch ut.
In class, we als learned abut the phenmenn f acupuncture anesthesia (麻醉) where patients culd underg surgery withut cnventinal anesthesia using nly acupuncture. As we prgressed thrugh the curse, we learned abut herbs and their uses. We als discussed the effects f substances such as alchl, tbacc, and drugs n the bdy and hw they culd lead t severe anxiety and abuse.
TCM dates back t ancient China, and it is a widespread practice tday. It is fascinating t learn abut the symblism behind each rgan and hw they relate t different emtins and imbalances in the bdy. After a year f wrestling with the curse, I have nw graduated and put everything in place. Withut dubt, it has been ne f the mst fulfilling experiences in my life.
24. What made the authr decide t sign up fr a TCM curse?
A. His wrries abut health prblems. B. His interest in natural treatments.
C. An accidental visit t a lcal clinic. D. The increasing knwledge f TCM.
25. What did the instructr mainly teach in the first class?
A. The develpment f acupuncture. B. The way t perfrm acupuncture.
C. The requirement fr an acupuncture. D. The varius tls used in acupuncture.
26. Hw des the authr feel abut acupuncture after graduating frm the curse?
A. Easy. B. Cmplicated. C. Advanced. D. Wrthy.
27. What can be a suitable title fr the text?
A. An encunter with TCM B. A mdern change in TCM
C. A curse t imprve my fitness D. A special acupuncture treatment

Yu’re in the shwer. Yu grab the shwerhead. What d yu d? Yu sing.
Have yu ever wndered abut this phenmenn? Sme f us wuldn’t sing in public if smene paid us. Yet we’ll sing in the shwer withut embarrassment. Believe it r nt, there’s a scientific explanatin behind it.
First, let’s lk at why we’re relaxed enugh in the shwer t burst int sng. Think abut it: yu dn’t sing when yu’re sad (unless yu’re singing the blues, f curse). Fr many peple, shwer time is the nly time they’re alne all day. Yu’re in a warm, small, safe envirnment. Yu’re cmfrtable enugh t be yurself! When yu relax, yur brain releases dpamine (多巴胺), which can give yur creative juices an extra kickstart.
Warm water is rushing ver yu, and nw yu’re relaxed and feeling gd. It turns ut that singing makes yu feel even better. Singing, because f the breathing yu put int it, gets mre xygen int the bld. This gives yu better circulatin, which in turn imprves yur bdy and md. And because yu have t breathe a little deeper t belt ut a sng, yu get sme f the same relaxatin and mind-clearing benefits as meditatin (冥想). Anther neat thing is that when yu’re singing, yu really can’t think abut yur prblems—mre stress relief.
But the best thing abut singing in the shwer? The acustics (音响效果)! Yu can never ask fr a better sund system than a bathrm. Because bathrm tiles (墙砖) dn’t absrb sund, yur vice bunces back and frth arund the rm befre fading away, which makes yur vice hang in the air lnger. And because the shwer is a small space, it bsts yur vice, making yur singing sund mre pwerful. S yu will sund better than yu actually are, which is a cnfidence bst.
We dn’t sing in the shwer simply because we have “Call Me Maybe” stuck in ur heads. It turns ut we d it fr many reasns: stress relief, happiness, great acustics, r maybe just because we like t hear ur wn vices. Whatever the reasn, keep it up. It’s gd fr yu. And if yu’ve never tried it, pick a sng, grab the shwerhead and put n yur wn private cncert.
28. Why d many peple feel cmfrtable singing in the shwer?
A. The acustics are perfect in public places. B. Shwer time is relaxing and private.
C. Singing bsts stress levels. D. Shwering imprves vcal abilities.
29. What scientific effect cntributes t the urge t sing in the shwer?
A. Released dpamine due t relaxatin. B. Increased expsure t blues music.
C. Enhanced xygen absrptin frm water. D. Strengthened lung capacity.
30. Why des singing in the shwer help in relieving stress?
A. The bathrm’s small size encurages relaxatin.
B. Breathing while singing imprves circulatin.
C. Singing remves the need fr deep breaths.
D. Tile walls absrb sund and stress.
31. In which part f a website can we prbably read the text?
A. Science. B. Technlgy. C. Culture. D. Peple. 6

“I was nt exceptinal at all,” Claudia Gldin nce tld me f her time as an ecnmics PhD student at the University f Chicag. But as the curse prgressed, she said, “I felt like lightbulbs were ging n in my head.” On Octber 9 the brightness f thse lights was cnfirmed, as she was awarded the Nbel Prize in Ecnmics “fr having advanced ur understanding f wmen’s labur market utcmes”.
Gldin fund men relatively dull, at least as a tpic f study. Their labur was unifrm cmpared t that f wmen, wh might switch between caring fr children, tiling (辛苦工作) in the family businesses r sweating smewhere else. But this cmplexity was harder t measure. Accrding t America’s histrical statistics, fr example, their ccupatin was ften unhelpfully listed as “wife”. S Gldin set ut t measure their wrk prperly.
The standard pattern f develpment was nce that as cuntries gt richer, wmen were pulled int the labur market. But by painstakingly stitching tgether different data sets, Gldin established that America’s path was mre cmplicated, and that grwth in the 1800s cincided with wmen mving away frm wrk ther than dmestic labur.
Why? Fr a start, factry jbs were harder t cmbine with childcare than, say, sewing at hme. And richer families culd affrd t spare wmen the indignity f til. Gldin argued that stigma (污名) reinfrced this, r the idea that “nly a husband wh is lazy and neglectful f his family wuld allw his wife t d such labur.” Later the stigma faded—the ffice clerk jb f the 20th century was easier, and cnsistent with the impressin f a supprtive spuse. With the arrival f tight labur markets in the 1950s, discriminatry plicies against hiring married wmen were virtually abandned.
Tday, wmen still wrk and earn less than men. As scial nrms have shifted and real barriers have fallen, Gldin says that mst f the remaining gender gaps facing cllege-educated wmen are due t smething else. S-called “greedy jbs” reward rund-the-clck wrk and are cnflicting with being n call fr children. Perhaps men shuld als share the family burden and allw their partners t be mre prfessinally invlved instead.
32. Hw des Claudia Gldin find wmen’s dmestic labur?
A. Cmplicated t understand. B. Tricky t assess.
C. Less changeable than men’s wrk. D. Mre valuable than men’s career.
33. Which f the fllwing is the case fr American wmen in the 1800s?
A. They tk an active part in wrkfrce.
B. They were cmfrtable enugh nt t wrk.
C. They std a gd chance in ffice jbs.
D. They were still stuck in husehld chres.
34. Why des the authr mentin “greedy jbs” in paragraph 5?
A. T explain the current gender gaps.
B. T intrduce the emplyee reward system.
C. T call n men t stay at hme.
D. T expse the greedy nature f capitalists.
35. Which f the fllwing can be the best title fr the text?
A. Gender Pay Gap Research Wins the Nbel Prize in Ecnmics
B. Hw Gldin Transfrmed Our Understanding f Wmen’s Wrk
C. Wmen’s Century-Lng Jurney Tward Equality
D. D Greedy Jbs Cause the Gender Pay Inequality?

Walking has been cnsidered as ne f the best pssible exercises. Fr many peple, daily walking ffers massive and lng-term physical and mental benefits. 36 A Stanfrd University study fund that participants were mre creative when walking as ppsed t sitting.
37 Yu’ve prbably heard the phrase “exercise yur creativity”. Our creative mindset is triggered by physical mvement, which is exactly why walking with yur dg, a friend, r alne feeds creative thinking.
But the scenery is almst as imprtant as the sweat. Just by ging utside, yu are stepping ut f yur habitual surrundings and yur cmfrt zne, which is necessary if yu want t pen yur mind t new pssibilities. Yu can walk thrugh a tree-filled neighbrhd. 38 Even when yu walk dwn a busy street, yu can’t help but get distracted by the sweet smells frm a fd cart r the child pinting t a building yu haven’t even nticed befre.
Walking utside cultivates ur ability t cllect new ideas and take in new sights, sunds, smells, and flavrs. Shinrin-yku, a cmmn frm f relaxatin in Japan, suggests that being in the frest and walking amng the trees there can lwer yur stress levels. 39 Research has shwn that immersin in nature arund yur neighbrhd r the discnnectin frm multimedia increased perfrmance n a creative prblem-slving task.
S instead f setting a fitness gal, why nt set a creativity gal that starts with walking utdrs? 40 Fr example, yu can turn ff yur phne and give yurself the chance t be present in the wrld, t hear cnversatins and natural sunds, and t ntice the way peple mve and the way the sun reflects in a lake.
Walk nt just fr exercise. Walk fr wnder.
A. Unfrtunately, yu ften fail t d it.
B. Engage mre clsely with yur surrundings.
C. The mvement aspect f walking is bviusly key.
D. Withut enugh energy, yu cannt wnder r create.
E. But t receive the benefits, yu d nt have t live in a frest.
F. This habit, hwever, isn’t just a beneficial pursuit but an element f innvatin.
G. Alternatively, yu can wander arund a park and bserve peple relaxing r birds singing.

An extreme sprt like BMX (Bicycle Mtcrss) may nt be the first thing that cmes t mind t help vercme a mental health cnditin. Hwever, that is 41 what enabled Nikita Ducarrz t fight her fears.

“Did yu plant smething there?” I asked.
“Yes,” she said. “I’m grwing a pencil. My purple pencil gt t small, s I planted it.” “What? But, Laynie”
I shuld have explained things right then, but I just muttered, “Uh . . . I never grew ne befre.”
Later I gt what seemed like a great idea. I dug up Laynie’s pencil and “planted” a brand-new purple pencil. Laynie was really excited when she saw it. “My pencil grew!” she shuted.
A few days later, Laynie was watering n the same spt. Tw days later, new crayns sticking their pinty little heads ut, thanks t me. Laynie jumped up and dwn and yelled, “They lk like flwers!” She “picked” them and ran int the huse.
Next, Laynie grew an adult bear dll frm a tiny ne, a sup spn frm a teaspn, and a hand mirrr frm a piece f glass. When she claimed that she had grwn these things, I just kept my muth shut! Actually, it was fun trying t think f what shuld grw frm Laynie’s seeds. And it was cl t see her get excited.
One day I saw her patting dwn sme dirt near the fence again, s I knew she’d just planted smething. My heart drpped t my feet when she asked, “Hw lng des it take t grw a gldfish, Brad?” I culdn’t speak.
“Nt lng, I bet!” said Laynie. She knelt dwn t whisper “Grw, Mlly. Grw!” befre she skipped back t the huse.
