Hug a tree! Recently, many young people have turned to trees to help with their stress. Although it sounds strange, there’s science behind the act of tree-hugging. The US scientist Edward O. Wilson said that humans are born to love being around other living things. Humans’ love for nature is in their DNA. This idea helps to explain why people like green views (风景) better than city views. It also explains why people love cute pets. There is a chemical called cortisol (皮质醇) in our body. It shows how much stress a person has. The worse a person’s feelings are, the higher his or her cortisol level is. The brain makes more cortisol when a person feels worried, angry, or very sad. Hugging trees helps lower cortisol, which makes us feel better. Although hugging a tree is helpful to us, it’s important to remember that we shouldn’t harm nature while doing it. Many small animals live in the tree, and they are too small to be seen. So remember to hug trees softly — just like how you hug a friend! 50. What does the sentence “Humans’ love for nature is in their DNA” mean? A. DNA is very important to humans. B. Humans are born to love nature. C. Humans love to do studies on DNA. D. Humans like city views better. 51. Which of the following best shows the relationship between bad feelings and the level of cortisol? (x = bad feelings, y = the level of cortisol) A. B. C. D. 52. What does the last paragraph mainly tell us? A. How long we should hug a tree. B. Why hugging trees can reduce stress. C. What scientists will study in the future. D. How to hug a tree without harming nature. 【答案】50. B 51. A 52. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了年轻人通过抱树来缓解压力的现象，解释了人类天生喜爱自然的原因（来自DNA），并说明抱树能降低体内的皮质醇水平从而减轻压力，最后提醒大家在抱树时要温柔，不要伤害树上的小动物。 【50题详解】 第二段开头提到“humans are born to love being around other living things”，即人类天生就喜欢亲近自然。选项B “Humans are born to love nature.” 与原文意思完全一致。 【51题详解】 第三段明确写道“The worse a person‘s feelings are, the higher his or her cortisol level is.”因此坏情绪与皮质醇水平成正比，即x增大时y也增大。 【52题详解】 最后一段提醒人们在抱树时要温柔，因为树上住着许多看不见的小动物，不要伤害它们。因此这段话主要讲的是“如何在不伤害自然的前提下抱树”。 第二节 阅读下面短文，并用英语回答问题（请注意每小题的词数要求）。 F What will parks look like in the future?

Recently, many young people have turned to trees to help with their stress. Although it sounds strange, there’s science behind the act of tree-hugging. The US scientist Edward O. Wilson said that humans are born to love being around other living things. Humans’ love for nature is in their DNA. This idea helps to explain why people like green views (风景) better than city views. It also explains why people love cute pets. There is a chemical called cortisol (皮质醇) in our body. It shows how much stress a person has. The worse a person’s feelings are, the higher his or her cortisol level is. The brain makes more cortisol when a person feels worried, angry, or very sad. Hugging trees helps lower cortisol, which makes us feel better. Although hugging a tree is helpful to us, it’s important to remember that we shouldn’t harm nature while doing it. Many small animals live in the tree, and they are too small to be seen. So remember to hug trees softly — just like how you hug a friend! 50. What does the sentence “Humans’ love for nature is in their DNA” mean? A. DNA is very important to humans. B. Humans are born to love nature. C. Humans love to do studies on DNA. D.
