During her undergraduate studies in psychlgy, Alexa had the pprtunity t study atHarvard's Leadership and Happiness Labratry, als knwn as the “Happiness Lab”. This experience gave her a new understanding n what truly brings happiness. She discvered that it's the simple rutines and daily actins that create a sense f cmmunity and cnnectin,rather than material wealth.
Alexa's mindset(思维模式) still influences her wrk. She believes that finding happiness is mre imprtant than just making mney. Alexa thinks it's imprtant t take pride in the prcess f building a cmpany, rather than nly fcus ing n the financial utcmes.

Due t the heavy academic pressure and safety issues, ur children's mvements are limited by a lack f extra-curricular activities, which usually ensure that they meet the daily recmmended level f physical activity.
Fr thse children attending a high schl, my wn included, the mrning and afternn walk culd be the nly chance that they get t spend time utside. This is a glden pprtunity t add sprts int their day, withut taking part in grup sprts r ging t a clsed indr gym(健身房).
Fr walking t schl, there are als many ther benefits, such as imprving schl perfrmance, reducing anxiety, imprving spirits, better sleep, a sense f independence,pprtunities t meet friends r think alne, paying attentin t small details and being amazed by the surrunding envirnment.
Hwever, parents still have fears. Parents fear cars, injury, extreme weather and even wild animals. These fears, many f which are almst impssible t happen, prevent parents frm allwing their children t d smething that's actually beneficial t them. “Remving an pprtunity t be active leads t an increase in childhd besity(肥胖), which can have a greater negative impact n a child's life than the risk f being injured due t being active,” saidDr. Mariana Brussni, a prfessr wh researches children's utdr and risky play.
When it cmes t changing the culture arund parents driving children t schl, much wrk still needs t be dne. Therefre, parents shuld try t let g slwly and give up the
idea that driving their children t schl is cnvenient. Brussni said, “We hpe t shift parents frm fcusing n prtecting their children t trusting their independent abilities.Schls can als play a rle in encuraging children t walk t schl.”

On an rdinary fssil-hunting(化石搜寻) uting, the members f the Hamiltn JunirNaturalist Club might expect t find a few interesting shells (壳). But n a 2006 trip tKawhia Harbur in New Zealand's Nrth Island, the students discvered the bnes f a fssilized huge penguin(企鹅).
“We were expecting t find cmmn fssils—shells, but were hugely shcked t find a huge animal skeletn(骨架) just lying n the beach,”said Mike Safey, president f the club.“Our club's fssil expert Chris Templer realised immediately that we had discvered smething hugely imprtant. We made the decisin t rescue this fssil, therwise it wuld have been cmpletely destryed by weather.”
Researchers frm Massey University used 3D scanning t cmpare the fssils t digitalized bnes frm all ver the wrld. The penguin fssil is between 27.3 and 34.6 millin years ld, accrding t Daniel Thmas, a senir le cture r in Massey's Schl f Natural andCmputatinal Sciences. It is similar t Kairuku penguins but with lnger legs. Researchers named it“Kairuku waewaera” fr this characteristic.
Arund 1.4 meters tall, this pengui n was much huger cmpared t living penguins. We knw that bdy size can be an imprtant factr when thinking abut eclgy. Hw and why did penguins becme huge, and why aren't there any huge penguins left? Well-preserved fssils like Kairuku waewaera can help us answer these questins.
“The discvery is imprtant fr researchers, and it was als rewarding fr the students wh fund it and encurages ther yung peple t g ut in nature and make their wn discveries. It reminds us that ancient New Zealand had many kinds f birds, and emphasizes
hw imprtant New Zealand is fr bird diversity tday,” Thmas says.

A. A science magazine. B. A health lecture.
C. A strybk. D. An advertisement.

A. An interesting shell. B. A huge penguin.
C. A huge pengui n fssil. D. A new kind f penguin.
34. What may Thmas agree with?
A. Ancient New Zealand had varius birds.
B. Teenagers shuld g ut t find fssils.
C. Researchers shuld scan the bird carefully.
D. New Zealand has a number f huge penguins.
35. Which f the fllwing is the best title fr the text?
A. New Zealand's birds are in danger tday

Due t the heavy academic pressure and safety issues, ur children's mvements are limited by a lack f extra-curricular activities, which usually ensure that they meet the daily recmmended level f physical activity.

On an rdinary fssil-hunting(化石搜寻) uting, the members f the Hamiltn JunirNaturalist Club might expect t find a few interesting shells (壳). But n a 2006 trip tKawhia Harbur in New Zealand's Nrth Island, the students discvered the bnes f a fssilized huge penguin(企鹅).
“We were expecting t find cmmn fssils—shells, but were hugely shcked t find a huge animal skeletn(骨架) just lying n the beach,”said Mike Safey, president f the club.“Our club's fssil expert Chris Templer realised immediately that we had discvered smething hugely imprtant. We made the decisin t rescue this fssil, therwise it wuld have been cmpletely destryed by weather.”
Researchers frm Massey University used 3D scanning t cmpare the fssils t digitalized bnes frm all ver the wrld. The penguin fssil is between 27.3 and 34.6 millin years ld, accrding t Daniel Thmas, a senir le cture r in Massey's Schl f Natural andCmputatinal Sciences. It is similar t Kairuku penguins but with lnger legs. Researchers named it“Kairuku waewaera” fr this characteristic.
Arund 1.4 meters tall, this pengui n was much huger cmpared t living penguins. We knw that bdy size can be an imprtant factr when thinking abut eclgy. Hw and why did penguins becme huge, and why aren't there any huge penguins left? Well-preserved fssils like Kairuku waewaera can help us answer these questins.
“The discvery is imprtant fr researchers, and it was als rewarding fr the students wh fund it and encurages ther yung peple t g ut in nature and make their wn discveries. It reminds us that ancient New Zealand had many kinds f birds, and emphasizes
hw imprtant New Zealand is fr bird diversity tday,” Thmas says.

C. Researchers shuld scan the bird carefully.
D. New Zealand has a number f huge penguins.
