Schools across Florida and around the USA are starting to use yoga(瑜伽) to help young people to be less stressed(有压力的) and stretch their bodies.
It's just really made a difference to these kids. They have so much on their minds. Yoga can help them to be concentrated(全神贯注的). Some schools also offer yoga as an after-class activity. Florida's churches(教堂) offer "mummy and me" and baby yoga classes into summer camps. The Orlando Public Library offers "Storybook Yoga" courses every month.
Why? It makes kids more concentrated, calmer, less stressed, and stronger. There are no distractions while the teacher leads her students through different poses(姿势). The students put their phones aside voluntarily at the beginning of class.
"When I do this, I don't even think about whether I have a message," one student said.
In Florida, more than 100 people have been trained. Around yoga, a St Petersburg company shows adults how to lead children to be relaxed. Their students include PE teachers, Maths teachers, and psychologists(心理学家).
"Most kids have not experienced yoga yet. And including yoga is a sign of a high-quality PE programme. The final purpose of PE is to teach our kids how to be active and healthy for the rest of their lives," said Lambin, a teacher training PE teachers at University of Texas at Austin. "Team sports are not for everybody."

【分析】
这是一篇体育运动主题的说明文阅读，解题时我们可以先快速通读全文，梳理核心内容：文章介绍了美国佛罗里达及全美多地的学校、公共机构陆续开设瑜伽相关课程，以及瑜伽能给人们身心带来的诸多益处。之后针对不同题型采用对应解题方法：细节理解题直接回文定位对应描述，逐一核对选项内容是否在文中出现；词义猜测题结合划线词的上下文语境，通过后文给出的线索推导词义；推理判断题将每个选项和原文内容逐一比对，排除表述错误、和原文不符的干扰项；主旨大意题梳理全文的核心论述方向，排除偏离核心的选项，选出最贴合主旨的答案。
【解析】
1. 细节理解题：根据原文第三段明确提到的“It makes kids more concentrated, calmer, less stressed, and stronger”，可知瑜伽可以帮助人们减压、变强、提升专注力、让人更冷静，文中完全没有提到“减少疼痛（Reduce ache）”的相关表述，因此a、b、c、d四项正确，对应选项A。
2. 词义猜测题：划线词所在句后文提到“学生们在课程开始时主动把手机放到一边”，说明瑜伽课上不存在会影响大家专注的事物，由此可以推断distractions的含义是“让人难以集中注意力的事物”，对应选项A。
3. 推理判断题：逐一核对选项：
选项A：原文第二段提到佛罗里达的教堂开设“妈妈和我”、婴儿瑜伽课，说明并非只有孩子能参加，表述错误；
选项B：原文第三段说明学生是“voluntarily（自愿地）”把手机放到一边，并不是被禁止玩手机，表述错误；
选项C：原文第五段提到“Around yoga, a St Petersburg company shows adults how to lead children to be relaxed”，说明这家公司面向成人开展相关培训课程，表述正确；
选项D：原文最后一段Lambin提到“Team sports are not for everybody”，并没有鼓励所有孩子参加团队运动，表述错误。因此本题选C。
4. 主旨大意题：全文围绕瑜伽在美国多地的普及展开，核心论述瑜伽能够帮助人们减压、提升专注力、强健身体，对人的身心都有诸多益处，对应选项B。
