2.Jim Denevan is an amazing artist whose work is admired by all,but owned by none—that's because all of Jim's art is created on an unusual canvas(畫布)—the soft sand.He sometimes spends days working on a piece,only to see it washed away by the sea or a storm and that is just the way he likes it.
Denevan discovered his artistic talents about ten years ago,when he was walking aimlessly on the beach with a stick.He ended up drawing a 12-foot-long fish.Since then,Jim has travelled over 1,800 miles while creating over 600 pieces of sand art.
Over the years,his drawings have become bigger,but the tools he uses haven't changed-All he needs is a stick,a garden tool and most importantly,his lively imagination!
Just like any good artist,Jim is quite particular about the "quality" of his canvas,sometimes walking for miles,in search of perfect sand.His latest piece of work,which is also the world's largest freelance(自由職業(yè)的)drawing,was created in the desert sands of Nevada.It took Jim three trips,eight days and over 100 miles of walking to create this 3-mile work of art.It took the storm just one night to destroy it!However,Jim says he actually enjoys watching the waves or rain wash his paintings away.
Jim's art has become very popular over the years and was even the topic of a documentary named "Sandman" in 2005.Jim Denevan is not just about art in the sand-he is also an excellent cook and founder of an organization called "Outstanding in the Field",whose motto is to celebrate food at its source.Accordingly,group dining events are held outdoors on farms,with the diners being treated to a delicious meal.The events,which are held in different farms throughout America,are always sold out the minute the schedule is announced.

3.Working out can help teenagers boost their grades,a new study suggests.Adolescents who routinely engaged in moderate to vigorous (劇烈的) exercise showed long-term improvements in their academic performance,the British Journal of Sports Medicine study reported.
"Our study suggests that the effect of physical activity may be quite large," John Reilly,a professor at the University of Strathclyde said.The researchers looked at a sample of about 5000 children who were involved in a long-term study that tracks children born in the U.K.between 1991 and 1992.When children reached 11 years old,their daily physical activity levels were measured using an accelerometer (加速器) for three to seven days.The device,similar to a pedometer (計(jì)步器) tracking the number of steps taken,recorded the average time children exercised,which was 29 minutes a day for boys and 18 for girls.
"The actual levels of daily physical activity at age 11 were quite low," Mr.Reilly noted.The children had their academic performance tested at ages 11 and 13 with compulsory national tests for students,and also at 15 or 16 with the General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE) exam.The tests assessed the children's abilities in English,math and science subjects.The results showed that the more children participated in moderate to vigorous physical activity,the higher their test scores were at age 11 in all three subjects.For girls,science scores were most strongly linked to exercise.
When children were tested again at age 13,their academic scores were still linked to how much they had exercised when they were 11 years old.By the time the youngsters took the GCSE exam,each 17-minute-per-day increase in physical activity for the boys was linked to an improvement in their scores.Every additional 12-minute increase a day in exercise for the girls was also linked to an increased score,especially in the science category.
The researchers have called for more studies to look at the possible academic benefits that could be derived if students exercised the recommended 60 minutes or more a day.
(1)What's the study about?
A.The influence of exercise on students' scores.
B.The secrets of students' ranking high in class.
C.The causes of students' participating in sports.
D.The ways of improving students' physical conditions.
(2)What is the function of the device used in the study?
A.To record how long students exercise.
B.To record the walking speed of students.
C.To record how many steps students walk.
D.To record the number of calories students consume.
(3)What does the underlined word "derived" probably mean in the last paragraph?
A.Maintained.
B.Obtained.
C.Concluded.
D.Reduced.
(4)Where does the text most probably appear?
A.In a storybook.
B.In a fashion magazine.
C.In an exercise guide.
D.In a research report.組卷:0引用:1難度:0.5

My best friend Jack wearing thick glasses and gray hair is a little quiet boy. People find it difficulty to get along with him. However, he is nothing like which he looks like in his mind. Actually, he is often seeing doing sports passionately. And he keeps pursuing what he real likes. For example, he is crazy about his study, which leads to her success. Being a top student in schoolwork do not mean he is poor at sports. In fact, he is one of the best basketball player in his school who take part in the national champion last year. Despite of a person of few words, he is active on the playground. In word, I'll learn from him.組卷:2引用:2難度:0.5
