A study frm the University f Mntreal and the Mntreal Museum f Fine Arts, published in Frntiers in Medicine, fund that regular virtual visits t museums culd help senirs stay mentally active and cme with a hst f additinal health benefits. That’s because these digital cnnectins can make retirees feel less lnely and islated (孤立的).
Scial islatin has been assciated with the risks fr heart disease and the decline f recgnitin abilities in senirs and the pandemic (疫情) increased the risks due t the need fr senirs t stay hme and islate, accrding t a press release frm the university.
The researchers investigated the ptential benefits f weekly virtual visits fr a three-mnth perid. The participants were peple aged 65 and lder wh lived in Mntreal. Half f the participants tk part in nline visits and a discussin afterwards, while the cntrl grup did nt participate in any cultural events at all. The grup wh participated in the virtual visits shwed imprvements in their quality f life. “Our study shwed that art-based activities may be an effective interventin,” lead authr Dr. Olivier Beauchet, a prfessr at the University f Mntreal, said in the press release. “On a glbal scale, this participatry art-based activity culd becme a mdel that culd be ffered in museums and arts institutins wrldwide t prmte active and healthy aging.”
The initiative reflects appraches recmmended by the Wrld Health Organizatin t manage certain diseases, accrding t Beauchet. Fr instance, the WHO launched the Aging and Health Prgram in 2015 that included using cmmunity-based rganizatins t prmte culture as a key cmpnent f imprving health. Traditinally, these srts f preventive health activities have taken place in schls, cmmunity centers, and wrkplaces. “While these are suitable lcatins that reach a great number f peple, there are additinal rganizatins and sectrs that culd becme partners in public health research and practice develpment,” Beauchet said. “Museums are amng such ptential partners. They are aware f the needs f their cmmunities and are cnsequently expanding the types f activities they ffer.”
8 Hw d senirs benefit frm regular virtual visits t museums?
A. They get survival skills.B. They raise interest in art.
C They imprve quality f life.D. They cnnect mre with family.
9. What can be inferred frm Beauchet’s wrds in Paragraph 3?

11. Which may be a suitable title fr the text?

Climate change is already affecting water access fr peple arund the wrld, causing mre severe drughts and flds. Climate change impacts the water cycle by influencing when, where, and hw much rain falls. It als leads t mre severe weather events ver time. Increasing glbal temperatures causes water t rise int the air in larger amunts, which will lead t higher levels f atmspheric water vapr and mre frequent, heavy, and intense rains in the cming years.
Climate scientists predict that this shift will lead t mre flds since mre water will fall than vegetatin and sil can absrb. The remaining water, r runff, flws int nearby waterways, picking up cntaminants like fertilizers (肥料) n the way. T much runff eventually travels t larger bdies f water like lakes, and the cean, damaging the water supply and limiting water access fr humans and ecsystems.
When fertilizers frm farming wash int lakes and the cean, they prmte the rapid grwth f algae (藻类). These resulting algal blms fill casts and waterways with cluds f green, blue-green, red, r brwn algae. They blck sunlight frm reaching underwater life and reduce xygen levels within the water. Pisns frm the algae can kill ff fish and ther aquatic animals, make peple sick, and even kill humans. These pisns are especially dangerus because they can survive rainfall prcesses, making tap water unfit t cnsume nce cntaminated. Algal blms als impact industries that rely n the water fr business, and ften cause lcal waterfrnts t shut dwn during blms.
There are many things that everyne can d t lessen the impact f climate change. Sme measures include grwing yur wn fruits and vegetables r buying lcally grwn prduce, since prduce is ften transprted t grcery stres frm far away by trucks, which add mre carbn dixide t the atmsphere. Yu culd als walk r ride a bike instead f driving a car.
12. What is a cnsequence f climate change accrding t paragraph 1?
A. Extreme weather.B. Water supply.C. Water cycle.D. Plluted atmsphere.
13. What des the underlined wrd “cntaminants” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Nutrients.B. Sils.C. Pllutants.D. Organisms.
14. What des the authr tell us t d in the last paragraph?
A. Master sme ways t d farming wrk.B. Buy mre freign fruits and vegetables.
C. Have a regular exercise like walking.D. Frm sme habits f reducing carbn dixide.
15. What’s the best title fr the text?
A. Causes f Climate Change.B. Harm Climate Change Des t Humans.

A study frm the University f Mntreal and the Mntreal Museum f Fine Arts, published in Frntiers in Medicine, fund that regular virtual visits t museums culd help senirs stay mentally active and cme with a hst f additinal health benefits. That’s because these digital cnnectins can make retirees feel less lnely and islated (孤立的).
Scial islatin has been assciated with the risks fr heart disease and the decline f recgnitin abilities in senirs and the pandemic (疫情) increased the risks due t the need fr senirs t stay hme and islate, accrding t a press release frm the university.
The researchers investigated the ptential benefits f weekly virtual visits fr a three-mnth perid. The participants were peple aged 65 and lder wh lived in Mntreal. Half f the participants tk part in nline visits and a discussin afterwards, while the cntrl grup did nt participate in any cultural events at all. The grup wh participated in the virtual visits shwed imprvements in their quality f life. “Our study shwed that art-based activities may be an effective interventin,” lead authr Dr. Olivier Beauchet, a prfessr at the University f Mntreal, said in the press release. “On a glbal scale, this participatry art-based activity culd becme a mdel that culd be ffered in museums and arts institutins wrldwide t prmte active and healthy aging.”
The initiative reflects appraches recmmended by the Wrld Health Organizatin t manage certain diseases, accrding t Beauchet.

Traditinally, these srts f preventive health activities have taken place in schls, cmmunity centers, and wrkplaces. “While these are suitable lcatins that reach a great number f peple, there are additinal rganizatins and sectrs that culd becme partners in public health research and practice develpment,” Beauchet said. “Museums are amng such ptential partners. They are aware f the needs f their cmmunities and are cnsequently expanding the types f activities they ffer.”
8 Hw d senirs benefit frm regular virtual visits t museums?
A. They get survival skills.B. They raise interest in art.
C They imprve quality f life.D. They cnnect mre with family.

Climate change is already affecting water access fr peple arund the wrld, causing mre severe drughts and flds. Climate change impacts the water cycle by influencing when, where, and hw much rain falls. It als leads t mre severe weather events ver time. Increasing glbal temperatures causes water t rise int the air in larger amunts, which will lead t higher levels f atmspheric water vapr and mre frequent, heavy, and intense rains in the cming years.
Climate scientists predict that this shift will lead t mre flds since mre water will fall than vegetatin and sil can absrb. The remaining water, r runff, flws int nearby waterways, picking up cntaminants like fertilizers (肥料) n the way. T much runff eventually travels t larger bdies f water like lakes, and the cean, damaging the water supply and limiting water access fr humans and ecsystems.
When fertilizers frm farming wash int lakes and the cean, they prmte the rapid grwth f algae (藻类). These resulting algal blms fill casts and waterways with cluds f green, blue-green, red, r brwn algae. They blck sunlight frm reaching underwater life and reduce xygen levels within the water. Pisns frm the algae can kill ff fish and ther aquatic animals, make peple sick, and even kill humans. These pisns are especially dangerus because they can survive rainfall prcesses, making tap water unfit t cnsume nce cntaminated. Algal blms als impact industries that rely n the water fr business, and ften cause lcal waterfrnts t shut dwn during blms.
There are many things that everyne can d t lessen the impact f climate change. Sme measures include grwing yur wn fruits and vegetables r buying lcally grwn prduce, since prduce is ften transprted t grcery stres frm far away by trucks, which add mre carbn dixide t the atmsphere. Yu culd als walk r ride a bike instead f driving a car.

A. Master sme ways t d farming wrk.B. Buy mre freign fruits and vegetables.
C. Have a regular exercise like walking.D. Frm sme habits f reducing carbn dixide.
15. What’s the best title fr the text?
