Do you like walking in nature? How do you feel when you hear birdsong? Happy or nervous? Recently, a study showed that hearing different sounds of bird singing may help increase(增加) our happiness.
Researchers at California Polytechnic State University(简称 Cal Poly) did a study. They studied the effects(作用) of birdsong on people walking through a park in the U.S. state of Colorado. Danielle Ferraro led the Cal Poly study.
Feraro said there could be an evolutionary(进化的) reason why we like birdsong so much. “The idea is that when we hear birdsong, it could mean that we are in a safe environment,” she said. There could be many other reasons, too. Ferraro said that in some areas birdsong could also mean the arrival of spring and nice weather. “Bird diversity(多样性) could also mean a healthy environment,” she added.
Ferraro and her team played recorded songs from a group of different kinds of birds. They did this in a park in Boulder, Colorado. Over several weeks, the researchers played recorded birdsong at certain times of the day and other times they did not. Then they talked with hikers(徒步旅行者) after they passed by. People who heard the recorded birdsongs reported a greater sense of happiness than those who heard simply the natural birds. The researchers said that both the bird sounds and bird diversity could increase feelings of happiness.
The research team did the study during the summer. Ferraro explained why this was important. “The spring is the most birds’ breeding(繁殖)season. We didn’t want to disturb(打扰) the birds too much.”
41. Who did Danielle Ferraro’s team study on?
A. The unhappy people. B. Ferraro and her team.
C. The people walking through a park. D. The people living near a park.
42. Why didn’t Danielle Ferraro’s team do their research in spring?
A. Because they liked summer better. B. Because they didn’t want to disturb the bird breeding.
C. Because there are more birds in summer. D. Because the birds don’t like singing in spring.
43. What can we learn from Paragraph 3?
①Birdsong can make human feel safe. ②People’s love for birdsong is important.
③Birds are active in the spring and nice weather. ④Birds like to live in a natural and healthy environment.
A. ①②③ B. ①③④ C. ②③④ D. ①②④
44. What’s the purpose of the fourth paragraph?
A. To talk about Ferraro’s study to readers. B. To make people close to nature.
C. To make readers understand what a study is like. D. To show why birdsong increases people’s feelings of happiness.
45. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Spending time in nature. B. Birdsong makes a happy life.
C. Interesting facts about birdsong. D. Doing the research in the right season.
【答案】41. C 42. B 43. B 44. D 45. C

Scientists say that hobbies can make kids smarter, healthier and even more successful when they grow up. How?
They Help You Learn
When you have a hobby, you learn new things. You have to read instructions. You look at websites, magazines and books to get more information about your hobby. More reading makes you a better reader and a better learner.
They Help You Be Creative
For many hobbies, such as building model cars and making pottery, you have to use your brain as well as your hands. We learn by doing things and by touching things. These kinds of activities make people more creative.
They Help You Be Relaxed
Having a hobby makes you feel good. Scientists say, “When you make something, the ‘feel-good’ part of your brain gets a message. It makes you feel happy.” When we feel happy, we have less stress. Too much stress can make people sick.
They Help You Build Skills
People with hobbies learn how to set goals and solve problems. Learning these skills when you are young can help you when you grow up. For some kids, having a hobby can be the first step to finding a satisfying job in the future.
31. According to the text, in how many ways can hobbies help kids?

Tom is a 14-year-old boy. He really likes sports. He says sports make him healthy and happy. But his best friend is quiet. Sometimes his friend likes sharing his favourite books with Tom. But Tom doesn’t like them. He thinks they are boring.
“In fact, I want to tell him I have different hobbies,” Tom said. “But I don’t want to hurt his feelings and harm our friendship. What can I do?”
Friends can be different. This is very common. It is important to talk with your friends. But you should be careful about how to talk with them. Here are some suggestions for you.
First, listen carefully to your friends. Although you may want to explain yourself, listening to your friends first may keep you calm. You will also better understand your friends.
Next, express yourself politely. Remember, you are not trying to argue (争辩). Winning or losing is not important. Don’t try to make your friends think like you.
Lastly and most importantly, show your friends that you value your friendship even if you don’t agree about something.
Real friends respect (尊重) each other.
36. From the passage we know that Tom doesn’t want to _________.

Do you like walking in nature? How do you feel when you hear birdsong? Happy or nervous? Recently, a study showed that hearing different sounds of bird singing may help increase(增加) our happiness.
Researchers at California Polytechnic State University(简称 Cal Poly) did a study. They studied the effects(作用) of birdsong on people walking through a park in the U.S. state of Colorado. Danielle Ferraro led the Cal Poly study.
Feraro said there could be an evolutionary(进化) reason why we like birdsong so much. “The idea is that when we hear birdsong, it could mean that we are in a safe environment,” she said. There could be many other reasons, too. Ferraro said that in some areas birdsong could also mean the arrival of spring and nice weather. “Bird diversity(多样性) could also mean a healthy environment,” she added.
Ferraro and her team played recorded songs from a group of different kinds of birds. They did this in a park in Boulder, Colorado. Over several weeks, the researchers played recorded birdsong at certain times of the day and other times they did not. Then they talked with hikers(徒步旅行者) after they passed by. People who heard the recorded birdsongs reported a greater sense of happiness than those who heard simply the natural birds. The researchers said that both the bird sounds and bird diversity could increase feelings of happiness.
The research team did the study during the summer. Ferraro explained why this was important. “The spring is the most birds’ breeding(繁殖)season. We didn’t want to disturb(打扰) the birds too much.”
41. Who did Danielle Ferraro’s team study on?
A. The unhappy people. B. Ferraro and her team.
C. The people walking through a park. D. The people living near a park.
