Feel sad? Hug a tree! Recently, many Chinese young people turn to trees to help with their problems. Maybe it sounds strange, but there's science behind the tree-hugging.
The "biophilia hypothesis" tells us the reason. It was from an American scientist, Edward Wilson, in 1984. He said that we humans were born to love being around other living things. Humans' love for nature is "in our DNA". This idea helps us know about why people choose green, natural places instead of city views. It's also one of the reasons why people love cute pets.
Some studies show why tree-hugging can help with our health. A study in 2021 reported that the activity could increase oxytocin. It has something to do with our feelings. The higher the level of oxytocin is, the happier you may be. Hugging trees for only 21 seconds can bring more oxytocin in our body.
What's more, when a person is angry, sad or very anxious, more cortisol comes out. Hugging trees helps make cortisol less and less, which makes us feel better.
The activity is helpful to us, but it's important to remember that we shouldn't hurt nature when doing it. Trees are important because many small animals live in the trees. You may want to be gentle when hugging trees—just like how you hug a friend!

答案
【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了拥抱树木这一行为背后的科学依据。
1. D 细节理解题。根据“He said that we humans were born to love being around other living things. Humans' love for nature is ‘in our DNA’. This idea helps us know about why people choose green, natural places instead of city views.”可知，人们喜欢待在绿色的地方。故选D。
2. A 词义猜测题。根据“A study in 2021 reported that the activity could increase oxytocin. It has something to do with our feelings. The higher the level of oxytocin is, the happier you may be.”可知，催产素水平越高，你可能越快乐，而拥抱树这种活动可以增加催产素，所以单词“increase”指的是“增加”。故选A。
3. D 判断正误题。根据“A study in 2021 reported that the activity could increase oxytocin. It has something to do with our feelings. The higher the level of oxytocin is, the happier you may be.”可知，催产素水平越高，我们可能越快乐。故选D。
4. C 写作手法题。根据“It was from an American scientist, Edward Wilson, in 1984. He said that ...”“Some studies show why tree-hugging can help with our health ... Hugging trees for only 21 seconds can bring more oxytocin in our body.”可知，文章通过列数字、给出理由以及展示一些研究来说明主题。故选C。
5. D 主旨大意题。根据“Recently, many Chinese young people turn to trees to help with their problems. Maybe it sounds strange, but there's science behind the tree-hugging.”及对整篇文章的理解可知，这篇文章主要告诉我们：以正确的方式拥抱树木能让我们感觉更好。故选D。

解析
【分析】
拿到这篇说明文阅读，首先快速通读全文，明确文章核心是介绍拥抱树木解压背后的科学原理。之后按照题目顺序逐一解题：
1. 第1题是细节理解题，直接定位到题干指定的第二段，找到原文关于人类天性喜爱自然、选择绿色自然场所而非城市景观的描述，比对四个选项排除不符合的内容即可选出答案。
2. 第2题是词义猜测题，定位到划线词所在的第三段，结合后文“催产素水平越高，人就越快乐，抱树21秒就能让体内催产素变多”的逻辑，就能推断出划线词的含义。
3. 第3题是正误判断题，将每个选项逐一返回原文对应位置比对，排除和原文表述矛盾的选项，就能得到正确答案。
4. 第4题是写作手法题，梳理全文的行文逻辑：文中没有讲述完整的故事，用到了21秒这类数字、给出了抱树有益的多个原因、引用了多项研究结论，据此判断符合的手法组合。
5. 第5题是主旨大意题，结合首尾段的核心表述，排除只覆盖局部内容的干扰选项，选出全文最核心的主旨即可。
【解析】
1. 细节理解题：根据第二段原文“He said that we humans were born to love being around other living things. Humans' love for nature is "in our DNA". This idea helps us know about why people choose green, natural places instead of city views.”可知，人类天生喜爱待在绿色的自然场所，A选项爱种树、B选项爱住在现代城市、C选项爱做运动均未在第二段提及，因此选D。
2. 词义猜测题：根据第三段后文“The higher the level of oxytocin is, the happier you may be. Hugging trees for only 21 seconds can bring more oxytocin in our body.”可知，拥抱树木的行为会让体内的催产素变多，因此increase的含义是“使某物变多”，对应A选项。
3. 判断正误题：根据第三段“The higher the level of oxytocin is, the happier you may be.”可知，催产素水平越高，人可能越开心，D选项表述正确；A选项“我们要为小动物种更多树”原文未提及，B选项“皮质醇水平越低我们越难过”和原文“抱树降低皮质醇让我们更舒服”矛盾，C选项“抱朋友比抱树好得多”原文没有相关对比，因此选D。
4. 写作手法题：全文没有讲述完整的故事，①不符合；文中用到了“21秒”这类数字（②符合），给出了生物亲和假说、催产素变化、皮质醇变化等多个抱树有益的原因（③符合），还引用了2021年的研究等多个研究结论（④符合），因此组合是②③④，选C。
5. 主旨大意题：全文围绕拥抱树木背后的科学原理展开，核心是说明用正确的方式拥抱树木可以帮助我们缓解负面情绪、感觉更好，A选项只对应最后一段的局部内容，B选项“很多获得快乐的方法”偏离主题，C选项“多种树打造绿色景观”不是文章核心，因此选D。
【答案】
1. D 2. A 3. D 4. C 5. D
