①Are you always feeling stressed and tired? Do you want to get more energy in a short time? Let's see what Western researchers discovered.
②A study, from University of Michigan, suggests spending at least 20 minutes walking or sitting in a place where you're close to nature can lower stress levels in a clear way.
③On the one hand, a study from University of Alabama at Birmingham found that after people visited their local city parks, they felt happier. “In general, we found park visitors reported their moods improved a lot after the park visit,” said the researcher Hon Yuen. “We did not find a clear relationship between exercise and improved moods. Instead, we found time spent in the park is very helpful to make people feel better, improving their moods.”
④On the other hand, another study by King's College London researchers found being outdoors, seeing trees, hearing birdsong, looking at the sky, and being close to nature were associated with higher levels of the mental health. Sometimes, these good results influenced(影响) people in a positive way for up to seven hours afterwards.
⑤Exercising in parks can easily restore(恢复)visitors' moods and energy levels, and communication with nature brings advantages to the mental health in the form of resting and enjoying themselves as well as building their self-confidence(自信).
⑥ Neighbourhood open spaces, especially green spaces, provide chances for social communication that may help people to further understand themselves and develop social relationships.
⑦With so many advantages, why not put down your work and take a walk in nature?

答案
1. C 写作手法题。根据开头“Are you always feeling stressed and tired? Do you want to get more energy in a short time?”可知作者通过问问题的方式引出话题。故选 C。
2. C 词义猜测题。根据本段内容可知作者在介绍另一个在公园里行走或者亲近大自然可以改善情绪的研究发现，说明两者之间有联系。所以“were associated with”表示“有关系”，因此与“have something to do with”含义相近。故选 C。
＞＞ 上下文语境
3. D 篇章结构题。第一段用问题引出话题；第二段至第四段介绍三项研究结果来说明可以恢复精力的方法；第五段和第六段对上文提到的研究做了总结；第七段结尾，呼应主题。因此与之相符的结构是 D 选项。故选 D。
4. D 推理判断题。根据结尾“With so many advantages, why not put down your work and take a walk in nature?”并结合全文可知本文主要介绍了在公园里行走或者亲近大自然可以改善情绪，恢复精力，作者写这篇文章是为了鼓励大家多亲近自然。故选 D。

解析
【分析】
我们可以逐题梳理解题思路：
1. 第一题问作者引入话题的方式，直接定位文章开篇的前两句话，能看到作者连续抛出两个问题，直接对应“提问引入”的逻辑，就能快速锁定答案。
2. 第二题是词义猜测题，划线短语所在的段落是介绍研究结论，核心是说明亲近自然的行为和心理健康水平之间的关联，结合上下文语境就能推断短语含义是“和…有关”，匹配对应选项。
3. 第三题梳理篇章结构，先逐个明确每一段的功能：第1段是总起用问题引出主题，2-4段是分别列举三项研究做论据支撑，5-6段是归纳总结亲近自然的各类好处，第7段是收尾发出呼吁，对应图示就能选出匹配的结构。
4. 第四题判断作者写作目的，直接看文章最后一段的反问句，作者直接号召大家去自然中散步，就能明确核心目的是鼓励读者亲近自然。
【解析】
1. 写作手法题：定位到文章开篇的两个问句“Are you always feeling stressed and tired? Do you want to get more energy in a short time?”，作者通过连续提问的方式引出下文关于西方研究者相关发现的话题，A举例子、B做调查、D展示研究结果均不符合开篇引入的特征，因此选C。
2. 词义猜测题：划线短语所在句介绍伦敦国王学院的研究结论，要表达的是亲近自然的各类行为和更高的心理健康水平之间存在正向关联，“were associated with”含义为“与…相关联”，选项C“Have something to do with（和…有关）”和该短语含义完全匹配，A对…满意、B充满、D有…问题均不符合语境，因此选C。
3. 篇章结构题：逐段梳理段落功能：①段属于总起段，用提问引出“亲近自然可减压、提升精力”的核心话题；②-④段属于分述论据部分，分别列举三所高校的研究，从不同角度论证亲近自然对情绪、心理健康的正向作用；⑤-⑥段属于益处总结部分，对前文的研究结论做归纳，梳理亲近自然在恢复精力、提升自信、促进社交等方面的多重好处；⑦段属于收尾段，发出呼吁号召读者多走进自然，整体逻辑完全匹配D选项的图示结构，因此选D。
4. 推理判断题：全文都在介绍多项研究证明亲近自然对身心的诸多益处，最后一段作者直接用反问句倡议读者放下工作去自然中散步，可见作者的核心写作目的是鼓励读者多亲近自然，A降低压力、B建立自信、C感到开心都只是亲近自然带来的部分效果，并非作者的写作主要目的，因此选D。
