While these findings suggest exercise has only a modest effect on ADHD,they do emphasize how working out has other benefits in addition to physical ones Physical activity appears to be protective.A 2018 study of over 1.2 million adults found that those who exercised experienced 43 percent fewer days of poor mental health,on average,than those who didn't.The link was strongest for team sports,cycling,and aerobic()and gym activities.Exercising for 45 minutes three to five times a week also seemed to be the sweet spot.More wasn't always better.

Coriolanus,one of his characters compares going into exile(to a "lonely dragon"retiring to his cave.He was talking about a physical state:someone who was lonely was simply alone.Then,thanks to the Romantic poets.the word took on emotional meanings.Loneliness became a condition of the soul.For William Wordsworth,who famously "wandered lonely as a cloud",the natural world offered an escape from negatrve feelings of loneliness-a host of flowers could provide "cheerful company".Todav.loneliness is often seen as a serious public- health problem.creating the feeung of disconnection. IIn his book Solirude,Netta Weinstein.a psychology professor wonders the rewards of time spent alone.He begins with an account of stories of solitude created by figures h as Michet Montaigne,a-writer,and Edward Hoppe;a painten Netta then draw on laboratory work,interviews and surveys to dlarify how being alone.really affects.the buman mmd. It is eommon o freat loneliness and.soltude.as synonyms(同义词).but they are not The author suggests that what is negatively descnbed as one state can be posiuvely expressed as the other.Loneliness,often perceived as a negauve state, can potentially be transtormed into a posatrve experience of solitude To this end he empbasizes how being alone can help testore people and offers practical advice.In a noisy werld,he argues,people should make ume to be alone,away from attention-grabbing motives. Ine boek's interviewees mostly regard.a lack of company as a contributor to autonomy-Bur this depends on whether solitude is desirable or not.Enforced soltude,eh as that experieneed by -prisoners,cypically (ladsto nothing but suffcring.Elective selfudl,by contrast'fffords space,for self-reflection.It can open the door to "peak experiences"such as wonder,harmony,and happiness.In a highly-connected digital age,howeven.many teaders oo not fancy their chances of ever taking a long enough break to have such expcrienccs. 28.How daes Paragraph I introduce the concept of loneliness?

D Robots have long becn drawing inspiration from animals..with the creation of robot dogs or snake-shaped robots.And yet,the field of robotics is far less entbusiastic about the other kind of living things -plants.Barbara Mazzolai,an Italian roboticist owes this to a misconception about-plant behavior:that they cammot move or think."It's not true at all."she says.To challeuge this view,Dr Mazzolai and her team recently launched a machine called "FiloBot",a robot based on a climbing specics. To survive,a climbing plant must switch between several different behaviors. In forest environments,it-must first grow out of the soil and travel along the ground in search of a support to bold onto,such as a nearby tree.Once a support is located, though,the plant fixes itsclf around the object and then growing towards the light. To choose the best angle to grow upwards,a climbing plant uses its shoots to receive informnnon about light and gravity. FiloBot also has scnsors on its main shoot.It can 3D-print its body with plastic and grow at a controllable mate.These functons,researchers found,enabled FiloBot to cross gaps.and find things to attach to.The lack of beavy on-board computng device means that st is light and requires minimal care,while its slow pace means that It doesn't disturb things around it,making it possible to move through a complex,unscen cuvironment,or monitoring disaster sites. For now.FiloBot is stll'being tested.Its tendrils()have not left the laboratory.Still,it nas already been employed in deconstructing plant behavioure For examplo.it was long assumed that climbing plants find their supports by growing towards shade,though the exact mechanism-was unclear.FiloBot could imitate this behaviour by detecting far-red light,which is typical of shaded areas, providing clues to how plants do it. 英语试题第7页（共12页） Dr Mazzolai hopes that such projects will inspire other roboticists to take their cues trom plants and develep completely new technelogies 32.What does the misconception about plantsuin the field'of robotics focus on?

B.The testing process of FiloBot. C.The components of FiloBot. D.The unique feature of FiloBot. 35.Which of the following is a suitable title tor this text?
