As the weather changes from day to day, sometimes it's impossible to avoid catching a cold or the flu. However, that doesn't mean we have to suffer terribly. Since the only way to get better from a cold is to go through the process, many natural remedies (疗法) have helped to reduce the symptom (症状) of the common cold.
If you feel the cold, you should drink something warm. Add honey and lemon to hot water or tea. You will keep warm while you're drinking tea. In traditional Chinese medicine, ginger (姜) has been used for over two thousand years. A cup of ginger tea helps to increase the blood move and make you sweat through your body.
Garlic (大蒜) is a super food. Garlic helps to fight off germs (细菌) when eaten daily. It can reduce the number of colds you get each year and shorten cold symptoms. If you don't mind eating uncooked garlic, it's best to eat a few pieces every three to four hours when you feel the first signs of a cold.
It's no secret that salt gets rid of germs. For a sore throat, mix about half a teaspoon of salt into warm water and use as a mouthwash. Whether it's for breakfast, lunch or dinner, the Japanese enjoy umeboshi, sour and salty apricots(杏子) that help keep the doctor away. Using a neti pot is an old practice from India that helps people breathe better. As a mixture of salt and water pours into the nose, the germs are cleared away.
Although cutting an onion can make you cry, it's good for a blocked nose. People in Mexico and Spain eat hot peppers to get their sense of smell back temporarily during a cold. Of course, you'd better be ready to experience a wave of heat! In Korea, kimchi is a popular side dish that keeps people healthy. It's made from pickle vegetables, red hot sauce and sometimes garlic and ginger.
It is common to have a cold, and Mother Nature’s remedies will be there for you to lower your pain when you need to fight against that cold!

How do you feel about nature? After spending hours indoors, do you feel better when you visit your local park? Most people think that nature is good for our bodies and brains. However, humans are spending more time inside and less time outside. For example, the number of visitors to Canada’s national parks is getting lower every year. And in countries such as the USA, only 10% of teenagers spend time outside every day. Many doctors feel that this is a problem in the twenty—first century.
As a result, some doctors are studying the connection between nature and health: one example of this is the work of Dr Matilda in Sweden. The doctor gave people a maths test. During the test, their heart rates (心率) were fast. After the test, one group of people sat in a 3D—virtual—reality (虚拟现实) room for fifteen minutes with pictures and sounds of nature. Their heart rates were slower than people's in the other group.
The virtual touch with nature helped them feel more relaxed. Another good example of how nature is good for health comes from Canada. In Toronto, researchers studied 31,000 people living in the city. In general, they found that healthier people lived near parks.
Because of studies like these, some countries and cities want nature to be part of people’s everyday life. In Dubai (迪拜), for example, there are plans for a new shopping mall with a large garden so shoppers can relax outside with trees, plants and water. In Switzerland, “forest schools” are popular. Schoolchildren study their subjects in the forests and do lots of exercise outside. And South Korea (韩国) is another good example: it has new forests near its cities and around 13 million people visit these forests every year. So after building cities for so long, perhaps it’s now time to start rebuilding nature.
1.What does Paragraph 1 mainly talk about?
A.Teenagers’ problem in the 21st century. B.How much time we spend outdoors.
C.Visiting your local park. D.Feeling about nature.
2.Match the countries or cities with the information and choose the right answer.
①the USA a. Children study in the forests and do lots of activities outside.
②Dubai b. About 13 million people visit new forests near its cities every year.
③Switzerland c. A new shopping mall with a large garden will be built.
④South Korea d. 10% of teenagers spend time outside every day.
A.①—a ②—d ③—b ④—c B.①—d ②—c ③—a ④—b
C.①—a ②—c ③—d ④—b D.①—d ②—c ③—b ④—a
3.What do the results of the studies show?
A.More and more Canadians will live near parks.
B.The maths test is difficult and makes people nervous.
C.Nature can help people feel more relaxed and be healthier.
D.People's heart rates get slower in a 3D—virtual—reality room.
4.What can we infer from the last sentence of the passage?
A.Nature is more important than cities. B.Country life is healthier than city life.
C.People have lived in the cities for so long. D.Nature should be part of people’s daily life.

From video games and museums to medical training, VR(virtual reality, 虚拟现实)has been changing our lives for the better. However, this wonderful new technology has a so-far unsolvable problem: It may make people feel sick from the VR experience. The feeling of sickness, caused by VR, is called cybersickness.
"With modern VR systems, the possibility of cybersickness after only 15 minutes' experience is from 40 to 70 percent," Thomas Stoffiregen, a researcher at the University of Minnesota, US said. This sickness is probably caused by sensory conflict (感觉冲突),explained Stoffregen. When you are wearing a VR headset, your body's motion sensors cannot match the information received by your eyes. For example, when we wear a VR headset and ride a virtual roller-coaster, we think we are going up and down, but our bodies stay still. It leads to the loss of balance. Sickness is from our bodies' natural reaction to the experience. Adding to this problem, women are more likely to feel sick from the VR experience than men.
According to a study by Bas Rokers, a scientist at the University of Wiscons in-Madison, US, one reason could be the headsets. To work properly, VR headsets must match up with your PD (pupil distance, 瞳距). Since they are designed larger PD, not everyone gets the best experience. Rokers found the larger PD distance is, the greater discomfort will cause. Based on his studies, about 90 percent of women have a shorter PD than the headset is made and that's the reason why women are more likely to have cybersickness.
Cybersickness prevents the widespread use of VR technology. Once it becomes comfortable and easy to use, however, it could play a great role in our lives.
1.Which is Right about cybersickness?
A.It's a common problem with VR technology. B.It is caused by one's poor sense of direction.
C.It's more possible for young people to feel sick. D.It only happens to women and children.
2.The example of riding a virtual roller-coaster is used to _________.
A.tell what it is like to have cybersickness B.explain how cybersickness is caused
C.tell people how to avoid cybersickness D.show how cybersickness influences people
3.Why are women more likely to have cybersickness?
A.They have a poor sense of direction. B.VR headsets are only made for men.
C.VR headsets are too large for their PDs. D.They are easy to lose balance.
4.What does the writer think of the VR technology?
A.The VR technology has already played a great role in our lives.
B.There is still something to do before VR technology plays a great role.
C.The VR technology is comfortable and easy to use for everyone.
D.It's impossible for VR technology to be popular in the future.

In the last passage we've already talked about some dangerous plants, but we don’t want to give anyone the wrong idea. The truth is that some plants can hurt you, but most are completely harmless. In fact, there are plenty of plants that are actually very useful to humans.
That is why plants are so popular in Chinese medicine. Chinese medicine has been using plants for at least 4, 800 years. One of the most popular plants in Chinese medicine is ginseng(人参). Doctors of Chinese medicine believe that ginseng can help your lungs(肺), clean your blood and do many other thing. Ginseng also provides energy for people. In fact, many modern energy drinks that you see in stores have ginseng.

Lady ferns are great for making your skin feel better. All you have to do is roll one of its leaves and make it into pieces in your hands. The juice inside the leaf will help your skin feel better.

Sage(鼠尾草)is one of the most useful plants in the world. Because it has so many uses it's also quite valuable. Human beings have been using sage for a very long time. In Europe before fridges appeared, people used sage to keep food. Over the years, people have used sage to fight all kinds of health problems.

What subject do you worry about the most at school? Many students worry about math. Some students can't sleep well the day before a math exam. Others may feel very nervous during the exam itself. But there might be a way to make the subject less stressful (压力大的).
"For people who are worried about math, posture (姿势) makes a big difference," Erik Peper from San Francisco State University told The Daily Mail. That's right—sitting up straight can help you do better on math exams.
Scientists tested 125 college students. They asked them to do a simple math exam while sitting in a slumped-over (趴倒的) posture, or sitting up straight. After the test, 56 percent of students said the exam was easier to do if they were sitting up straight.
"Slumping over is a defensive (戒备的) posture. It can bring about bad memories in the body and brain. This can stop you from thinking clearly," Peper said.
Students who were not nervous about taking the math exam did not necessarily benefit from better posture. But they did find that doing math while slumped over was more difficult, Science Daily reported.
Good posture isn't just helpful for taking math exams. Sportspeople, musicians and public speakers can all benefit from better posture. When you feel stressed out, you can also try to sit up straight or stand tall. It can help you feel more certain and focus better.
1.What posture can make people feel less stressed during math exams?
A.Sitting up straight. B.Hanging your head. C.Lying on your back. D.Raising one hand.
2.What did the scientists ask the college students to do during the test?
A.To do sit-ups. B.To count numbers. C.To think carefully. D.To sit in different postures.
3.The underlined word "benefit" in the passage means"________".
A.get advantages B.lose things C.get hurt D.fall asleep
4.The fourth paragraph is written to explain________.
A.why slumping over makes exams harder to do B.why slumping over is bad for one's health
C.why some people slump over during exams D.why people are nervous during math exams
5.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A.Slump over to Take Exams B.Sit up to Do Math
