A(2024·北京海淀期末)
A team of scientists found that spending two hours a week of class time in nature could help 10-to 12-year-olds with serious mental(心理的) health problems to feel better.
About 1,000 children took part in the three-month-long study. They came from 33 different middle schools. All schools were near a park or green space. In the study, half of the children stayed at school, while the other half took part in some nature-based activities for two hours every week. During the two hours they spent in the park, scientists asked teachers to give their daily classes in subjects such as Maths, languages or science. Also, they asked teachers to hold some short 10-15-minute activities to improve students' mental health. There were activities like drawing a tree, writing stories, talking about life in nature, and so on.
To see if there were changes in behaviour(行为) over the study time, scientists asked students and teachers in the study to answer some questions. These questions could help scientists learn about the changes in children's mental problems and behavioural difficulties.
The scientists found that after three months, the biggest changes in behaviour appeared(出现) in children with the most serious mental problems, such as feeling nervous or having trouble getting along with classmates. Talks with the teachers also showed that children were more peaceful, relaxed and focused in class after the time spent in nature.
This study shows that nature-based programmes can help children with more serious mental health problems. The programmes may act as a helpful tool to ease school-aged children's mental problems. According to the scientists, the results are meaningful for teachers to find better ways to help students in need. These low-cost and safe ways will play a bigger role in schools with green space.
1. Teachers can help students with mental problems by asking them to .
A. have more PE classes in the gym
B. share ideas with parents at home
C. write stories in the classroom
D. have fun activities in a park
2. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?
A. Who took part in the study.
B. How scientists did the study.
C. Why teachers held different activities.
D. What children learnt from the activities.
3. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Outdoor activities better students' physical health.
B. Subjects about nature make students more relaxed.
C. Spending time in nature helps students with mental problems.
D. Learning in nature helps students get some useful safety skills.
