But when she finally came ut f the wheelchair, she turned a crner. Marita decided she wuld still try t fllw her dream, and sent her phts ff t sme mdeling agencies. She did a few unpaid jbs while studying at cllege, and sn, paid cmmercial mdeling jbs started cming in.

Nstalgia(怀旧) has becme increasingly cmmn in the current rapid, unexpected changes. Mre and mre Americans are turning back with lnging t what feels like simpler, sweeter times. They cllect cassette tapes, manual typewriters, even decades-ld vide games.
Is it a mistake t miss the past? Sme psychlgists warn that t much devtin t the s-called gd ld days is an escape frm reality; it suggests lneliness r that a persn is having a difficult time dealing with the present. Psychlgist Stephanie Cntz argues that nstalgia distracts us frm addressing the prblems f mdern life and cntributes t anxiety, depressin, sleeplessness, etc.
But new studies suggest that a small amunt f nstalgia is nt nly harmless, but actually beneficial. They suggest it helps strengthen ur sense f identity and makes us feel mre psitive and inspired. It is als a tl fr self-discvery and memries are a psychlgical respnse when yu want t take a break frm negativity. Recalling (回忆) ur childhd reminds us f "the times when we were accepted and lved uncnditinally," says Krystine Batch, a psychlgist. "That is such a pwerful cmfrt, knwing that there was a time in life when we didn't have t earn ur lve." Nstalgia can turn even the mst rdinary past int legends which warms the heart and the bdy. Let's nt frget that nstalgia has been a surce f inspiratin t cuntless American writers. Mark Twain recalled his byhd, writing, "After all these years, I can picture that ld time t myself nw, just as it was then."
S g ahead, daydream a little abut yur best childhd friend, a lng-gne family pet, etc. As Dr. Sedikides says, "Nstalgia is abslutely central t human experience." But at the same time, keep these wrds f wisdm frm the great inventr Charles Kettering in mind as well: "Yu can't have a better tmrrw if yu are thinking abut yesterday all the time."
28. Hw is nstalgia viewed by the psychlgists in Paragraph 2?
A. It might leave a persn in lw spirits.
B. It indicates lneliness experienced in the past.
C. It always saves peple frm dull reality.
D. It helps t slve the prblems in the present life.
29. What is discussed abut nstalgia in Paragraph 3?
A. Its reasns.B. Its benefits.C. Its side-effects.D. Its wrking principles.
30. Why is Mark Twain mentined in the text?
A. T explain he had a strng sense f identity.
B. T recall the gd ld days.
C. T shw his nstalgia fr the past.
D. T prve nstalgia can serve as an inspiratin fr wrks.
31. What is the authr's attitude twards nstalgia?
A. Appreciative.B. Dubtful.C. Objective.D. Uncncerned.
D
Here's what Friedrich Nietzsche wrte: "It is nly ideas gained frm walking that have any wrth." Researchers have discvered numerus cnnectins between walking and prducing ideas. A Stanfrd University study fund that participants were 81 percent mre creative when walking in cntrast with sitting.
The mvement aspect f walking is bviusly key. Yu've prbably heard the phrase "exercise yur creativity", which refers t the brain as muscle. Our creative mindset is triggered (触发) by physical mvement, which is exactly why walking-with yur dg, a friend, r alne-feeds creative thinking.
But the scenery is almst as imprtant as the sweat. The Natinal Human Activity Pattern Survey indicates that Americans spend 87 percent f their time indrs. Being inside, yu're mre prne (倾向于) t stagnatin, the ppsite f energy. Withut energy, yu can't wnder r create. Just by ging utside, yu are stepping ut f yur habitual surrundings and yur cmfrt zne, which is necessary if yu want t pen yur mind t new pssibilities.
Our brains wrk harder t prcess in different envirnments, s walking utside develps ur ability t learn new ideas, t take in new sights, sunds, smells, and flavrs. Shinrin-yku, r "frest bathing," is a cmmn frm f relaxatin and medicine in Japan. It was develped in 1982, and recent studies shw that being in the frest and walking amng the trees lwers yur stress levels. But yu dn't have t live near a frest t receive the psychlgical benefits. Research has shwn that being in nature, and the discnnectin frm multimedia and technlgy, increased perfrmance n a creative prblem-slving task by a full 50 percent in a grup f hikers.
S instead f setting a fitness gal, why nt set a creativity gal that starts with walking? Engage mre clsely with yur surrundings fr the next fur weeks. Turn ff yur phne and give yurself the chance t be present in the wrld, t hear cnversatins and natural sunds, t ntice the way peple mve, the way the sun reflects in a puddle. Walk nt just fr exercise. Walk fr wnder.
32. What des the authr stress in Paragraph 2?
A. Physical activity cntributes t mental prductin.
B. Peple release their creativity in cmpany.
C. Walking dgs prmtes creative thinking.
D. Brain will develp with regular use.
33. What cntributes t peple's energy accrding t the Natinal Human Activity Pattern Survey?
A. The chance encunter.B. The cmfrt zne.
C. A change f scene.D. A wrkut.
34. What des the authr suggest?
A. Taking a walk in a frest.B. Imprving the physical fitness.
C. Cnnecting with the utside wrld.D. Getting rid f electrnic devices.
35. Which f the fllwing is the best title f the text?
A. Relaxatin is inseparable frm creative inspiratin
B. Yur brain was made fr walking
C. Walk ut f yur cmfrt zne
D. Mind and bdy are clsely related

But after ver a year f wrking frm hme, many f us are starting t questin traditinal ways f wrking. Our bss did sme research n the issue and discvered that 80% f emplyees have enjyed wrking frm hme. 42% felt that they've been just as prductive as they were in an ffice, and 28% felt they were mre prductive at hme. Fr me, ne f the best things was nt having t travel an hur t and frm wrk each day. This meant I gt mre sleep, and had mre time fr family and hbbies. I als didn't have many questins frm c-wrkers, s it was easier t fcus, and get mre wrk dne in less time. But there were prblems, t. I felt lnely at times and having nline meetings culd be very upset! Wrst f all, it culd be difficult t stp wrking because I didn't have t leave the ffice. In the future, I'd like a flexible apprach t wrk frm hme several days a week and in the ffice fr the rest.

Halfway thrugh it, I felt myself enjying the cmpany f these three peple.

Finally, with ur cperatin, ur assignment was successfully finished.
Mrs. Bartlett gave us an A n that assignment. She annunced t the whle class that the newspaper designed by ur grup was elabrately laid ut and carefully edited, with rich cultural knwledge. Our jy and happiness were beynd descriptin. After that semester ended, I always received a friendly hell frm my grup. Many years later, I didn't recall anything abut the newspaper, but I did feel frtunate t be given the pprtunity t see in myself a ptential that inspired my actins. It is Mrs. Bartlett's insight, visin and thughtfulness that bring ut the ptential in fur f her students. She is the ne wh truly deserves the grade A.
