It's lng knwn t us that living clse t majr rads is harmful t peple due t the expsure t air pllutin. Hwever, rad traffic nise is als a widespread prblem in cities whse impact n children's health remains prly understd. A new study cnducted at 38schls in Barcelna suggests that traffic nise at schls has a harmful effect n the develpment f wrking memry and attentin in primary schl students.
The study included 2,680 children between 7 and 10 years f age. T assess the pssible impact f traffic nise n their cgnitive(认知的) develpment, the researchers fcused n tw abilities that develp rapidly during preadlescence (青春期前) and are essential fr learning and schl attainment: attentin and wrking memry.
The fieldwrk fr the study was carried ut ver a 12-mnth perid in 2012 and 2013,during which the participants cmpleted the cgnitive tests fur times. The aim f these tests was nt nly t assess their wrking memry and attentin but als t study their evlutin ver time . Over the same perid, nise measurements were taken in frnt f the 38participating schls, as well as in the playgrund s and inside classrms.
In the analysis f utdr nise levels f schls, higher average nise levels and greater fluctuatin(波 动) in nise levels were bth assciated with prer student perfrmance n all tests. Inside the classrm, greater
fluctuatin in nise levels was als assciated with slwer prgress ver the curse f the year n all cgnitive tests. Hwever, children expsed t higher average classrm nise levels ver the curse f the year perfrmed wrse than students in quieter classrms nly n the attentin test, but nt n the wrking memry test.
The researchers used the 2012 rad traffic nise map f the city f Barcelna t estimate the average nise level at each participant's hme. In this case, hwever, n assciatin was bserved between residential nise and cgnitive develpment.
“This culd be because nise expsure at schls is mre harmful as it affects cncentratin and learning prcesses,” cmmented Maria Frester. “On the ther hand, althugh nise measurements were taken at the schls, nise levels at the children's hmes were estimated using a nise map that may be less accurate and, in any case, nly reflected utdr nise. This, t, may have influenced the results.”
61. What prblem des Paragraph 1 highlight?
A. Impacts f traffic nise n children.
B. Negative effects f living in big cities.
C. The harm f air pllutin t children's health.
D. The bstacle t imprving wrking memry and attentin.
62. What can we learn abut the study?
A. It lasted mre than tw years.
B. It targeted schlers f a certain age range.
C. It invlved participants frm different natins.
D. It was mainly carried ut inside classrms.
63. What played a rle nly in students' prer attentin perfrmance accrding t the text?
A. Higher average classrm nise levels.
B. Students' wrse family envirnment.
C. Students' weaker ability t adapt t new envirnments.
D. Greater fluctuatin in classrm nise levels.
64. Hw was the average residential nise level evaluated in the study?
A. Thrugh the researchers investigatin.
B. Thrugh the participants' calculatin.
C. Thrugh field tests by prfessinals.
D. Thrugh a rad traffic nise map.

One f the mst beneficial skills yu can learn in life is hw t cnsistently put yurself in a gd psitin. But nt everyne knws hw we can create that fundatin. Actually, the psitin yu find yurself in tday is the accumulatin f the small chices that yu've been making fr years.
If that's the case, why desn't everyne make chices that will put them in a gd psitin in the future? The rdinary chices that guarantee a strng future g unnticed. Eating a chclate bar right nw wn't make yu unhealthy, just as nt eating it wn't make yu healthy. Saving mney tday wn't make yu rich, just as nt saving it wn't make yu pr. Reading a chapter f a great bk tday wn't slve yur prblems just as nt reading it wn't make them wrse.
Nt ding the bvius things that psitin yu fr future success--- rarely hurts yu right away. The small chices we make n a daily basis either wrk fr us r g against us. Time strengthens what yu feed it. On the first day, the difference between the chices that help us and the chices that hurt us isn't nticeable. But as days turn int weeks, weeks int years, and years int decades, the small chices d create massively different results.
Whenever this idea is brught up, peple are quick t bject, “But ... I d these things and I dn't get the results I want.” And it's true; mst f us make the right chices mst f the time. But “mst f the time” isn't the same as “all f the time”. In the absence f immediate rewards, we can keep up the intensity fr a while but mst f us fail t last it lng. It's like we're Sisyphus rlling a large rck up the hill, nly t thrw ur hands halfway in the air due t tiredness and g hme. When we shwed up the next day, we saw the rck at the bttm f the hill and repeated the wrk. Nt nly did this spil the prgress but it made getting started even harder.
When yu lk belw the surface, giant leaps aren't really giant leaps at all. They're a series f rdinary chices that finally becme bvius. If yu lk fr the magic mment, yu'll miss hw rdinary chices becme extrardinary.
66. Why d rdinary chices tend t be verlked accrding t Paragraph 2?
A. They may harm peple's health.
B. They nly prduce insignificant success.
C. They fail t give immediate cnsequences.
D. They are unable t guarantee a strng future.
67. What des the authr mainly stress in Paragraph 3?
A. The pwer f time.
B. The difficulty in achieving success.
C. The necessity f setting clear gals.
D. The imprtance f thughtful planning.
68. What may lead t sme peple's failure accrding t Sisyphus's stry?
A. A lack f perseverance. B. Insufficient preparatins.
C. Simply blind cnfidence. D. A shrtage f cperatin.
69. What lessn des the text intend t shw?
A. N pains, n gains. B. Time heals everything.
C. It's never t late t act. D. Rme was nt built in a day.
70. Hw is the text develped?
A. In time rder. B. In spatial(空间) rder.
C. By analyzing data. D. By giving examples.

I vlunteered at LM Village Camp with Refugee Supprt fr five mnths and I just came back recently.
I dn't knw hw t summarize the past several mnths. The refugees(难民)I gt t knw are unbelievably generus, warm and kind despite their hrrific circumstances. I was astunded that they had the emtinal capacity t give lve, and gestures f kindness t the vlunteers. On my last day at LM Village Camp, ne family called me ver t their hme t thank me and say gdbye. They insisted n giving me their first grwn cucumber frm the plants they were grwing frm the “Grw Yur Own” prject we helped them start.
“Chices ”and “pprtunities” have been cruelly taken away frm these peple. If there is smething I have learned frm this, it's t try t remind myself nt t take the chices and pprtunities I have fr my present and future fr granted. These refugees are currently pwerless t make any real chices abut their future, r even abut their daily painful life. Hwever, what I did witness at LM Village Camp was the residents' ability t chse lve and genersity f heart. I am prud t have supprted these peple a little in their time f need. They truly gave me s much mre than I culd give them; I learned s much abut true selfless kindness.
':Having vlunteered fr five mnths with Refugee Supprt, I have witnessed first-hand hw dnatins can prvide sme nrmality fr refugees’ life, prviding aid with dignity and respect, and ffering sme small daily chices. Yu dn't have t vlunteer there t help them. Yu can help even at hme. Just dnate smething t them. It desn't have t be smething expensive. Just dnate anything that yu think can help a refugee.
