13.If you feel stressed at school,what can you do to make yourself happier?Some may eat their favorite food or listen to some music.Others may go for a walk or get some exercise.A new study found another great way to lower students' stress—playing with dogs. Scientists studied 105 students between the ages of eight and nine.35 trained dogs and their trainers also took part in the test.The children were divided into 3 groups.The students in the first group spent 20 minutes with a dog and its trainer.They watched the trained dogs perform and even played with them.They did this twice a week for 4 weeks.The second group spent the same amount of time(時長)doing exercise to relax.The last group did neither of these things. During this time,the scientists recorded the students' cortisol levels(皮質(zhì)醇水平).Cortisol is a stress hormone(激素).The more stressed you feel,the more cortisol you will have in your body.What did the scientists find?Both the second and third groups showed rises in cortisol levels.The first group,however,showed no big increase.And the children in this group had the lowest cortisol levels right after playing with the dogs. According to the study,students enjoy playing with dogs,and it helps them become happier.The stress hormone falls over time this way,which is good for students' health.But here comes the next question:Is 20 minutes of playtime with a dog the best amount of time?Scientists are going to keep working to find out the answer. 根據(jù)材料內(nèi)容選擇最佳答案。 (1)Why is the first paragraph written?

18.Thang-ga (唐卡) is a special kind of painting.It was found only in Tibet,China.It started from the Tang dynasty(唐朝).Thang-ga paintings show Tibetan people's lives.In recent years,Thang-ga paintings have caught the public's jye.aitention.At the same time,the Chinese government has also tried hard to protect the art. The colors of Thang-ga paintings look wonderful and special.Because of the special environment of Tibet and the excellent skills of artists,the paints(顏料) used in Thang-ga paintings are different from other paints.They were made from minerals like gold and silver,as well as some plants.The paints were made by hand and the beautiful colors could last (持續(xù)) for hundreds of years. However,with the development of technology,people now use cheaper and easily-made chemicals to make Thang-ga paints.The traditional paints used in Thang-ga paintings took a lot of work and they were made in many secret ways.Later people stopped making the paints and forgot about them.So the skills needed to make them were almost lost.The traditional Thang-ga paintings are difficult to find now.
