Winter is over, so chances are you're ready for some major spring cleaning or cleansing.Whether you plan to clean your bedroom or wipe the windows, don't forget to tidy up the kitchen! According to a study, a messy(凌乱的) cooking space can lead to overeating.
As part of the study, 101 female students were put in standard kitchen and messy kitchen environments and were asked to write about a time when they felt in control or out of control.Next, they were given cookies, crackers and carrots.Students in the “messy kitchen” who wrote about feeling out of control ate about twice as many cookies as the people in the in-control situation.
The researchers found that a messy environment can actually make people more likely to eat unhealthy foods, but the person's mindset(思维模式) within that environment can either trigger or protect against overeating.In the messy kitchen, women who wrote about a time when they felt in control consumed fewer cookie calories than the women who wrote about being out of control.
As the researchers pointed out, our mindset affects whether we will overeat unhealthy foods while in a messy kitchen.If we go into the kitchen with an “in-control” attitude, we might not eat as many cookies.But then again, why not try out cleaning up the kitchen and see what it does?
Everything that feeds you doesn't come on a plate such as your relationships, physical activity, and spirituality.Your home environment is also a big part of that nourishment(营养).So whether you tidy up your kitchen or your living room, being mindful of your living space (just like your diet!) can have a positive effect on health.

Green exercise is a term used to describe any type of physical exercise that takes place in a natural environment rather than in a health club or gym. 1 .Instead, it relies on the use of natural means of taking part in activities that improve strength and endurance with as little reliance on equipment as possible.
2 .For example, some consider a truly natural exercise experience requires that the individual wear clothing only made from natural fibers.Others consider barefoot running or walking with a big arena to be more desirable than running or walking with shoes.
A slightly different approach to green exercise puts more stress on the fresh air, sunshine and involvement with the natural world, rather than the equipment or clothing used during the exercise. 3 .Similarly, climbing a mountain using standard equipment and protective clothing would also be considered a green exercise.
Many consider green exercise helps to reconnect human beings with the natural world.The interaction with nature helps to lower people's blood pressure, refresh their mind, and actually improve their self-esteem. 4 .
Not everyone believes that the green exercise is more beneficial than working out in a health club or gym. 5 .Meanwhile, the use of fitness devices may result in more challenging workouts which help strengthen the heart and lungs in ways that more simplistic exercise in a natural setting would be difficult to manage.
A.A green gym uses as little equipment as possible
B.Spirits are also believed to be positively affected
C.Opinions on what truly green exercise means differ
D.Green exercise includes a range of activities exposed to nature
E.So riding a bicycle in the forest can be called a type of green exercise
F.It usually doesn't use fitness equipment that is normally found in a gym
G.Some point out that many health clubs are built to make full use of natural light
语篇导读 主题语境:人与自我/健康的生活方式。本文为说明文,介绍了一种新型运动方式——绿色运动,并说明其利弊。
1.答案 F
解析 转折关系。上一句介绍绿色运动不同于在健身房的锻炼,下一句中的Instead表明空处的意义与下文相反。因此,空处承上启下,应继续说明绿色运动与健身房运动的不同之处。F项(它通常不使用健身房里常见的健身器材)符合语境,且提到了gym,与上下文一致,故选F项。
2.答案 C
解析 总分关系。下文从两个方面举例说明了两种不同的绿色运动方式。因此空处概括性总结不同的人对于什么是真正的绿色运动观点不同,故选C项。
3.答案 E
解析 并列关系。下一句表明什么样的锻炼会被视为绿色运动,根据Similarly可知,空处也是在介绍绿色运动的类型。E项中的can be called a type of green exercise与下文中的also be considered a green exercise结构一致,都是在介绍绿色运动的类型,故选E项。
4.答案 B
解析 并列关系。上一句介绍了绿色运动对于身体、头脑和心理健康的优点,B项承接上文,接着说明了绿色运动在精神上的积极影响,故选B项。
5.答案 G
解析 并列关系。根据上文可知,该段在介绍另一种观点,指出使用健身器材锻炼也有好处。Meanwhile后说明使用健身器材有利于增强心肺功能。因此,空处也是在讲述健身俱乐部或者健身房的优点,G项中的many health clubs与上文的in a health club or gym呼应,故选G项。
