• 1．Hidden gardens in London
     From nature reserves to community spaces，we've dug up some of London's most secret gardens，where you'll find pockets of splendid nature and forget about all your worries.
     Queen's Wood
     Across the road from the better-known Highgate Wood，there is something more magical and quiet about Queen's Wood- witness its hilly pathways through the mountain ash and cherry trees.It might be only a few hundred metres from Highgate tube station，but native bluebells and countless species of small animals make this a wonderful retreat.
     Phoenix Garden
     Behind Charing Cross Road，this is a super spot for a leafy lunchtime break.Look out for frogs and sparrows，which are thriving thanks to an enthusiastic conservation initiative.The garden closed last autumn for redevelopment work but has reopened in time to take advantage of our long-awaited spell of improved weather.
     Postman's Park
     A short walk from St Paul's Cathedral lies one of London's most touching monuments：George Frederic Watts's Memorial to Heroic Self-Sacrifice.Within the quiet Postman's Park，nestled beneath a roof，are just over 50 ceramic plaques（牌匾），each honoring the memory of an ordinary person who lost their life trying to save others.
     Red Cross Garden
     Originally intended to give Southwark children a space to play，this Victorian garden has been restored to its original design，complete with pond，cottage，bandstand and formal borders.While relaxing in the restored bandstand，it's hard to imagine the view back in 1887 when it was surrounded by workhouses and factories.

• 2．Matt Doogue，a 34-year-old nature photographer，had been suffering from depression when he first found his passion for taking pictures of insects and his work is now featured in National Geographic.He says that he tried to take his own life nine years ago after hitting rock bottom. "In the beginning，I was so paranoid （多疑的） and angry that I couldn't leave the house，" says Doogue. "When I attempted to end my life，I knew I needed to see someone.I went to the doctors and got treatment，but I knew that I needed something more and that's when I started photography. "
     Now a dad of two，Doogue found that looking at insects through a camera helped him in ways he could never have imagined and it proved to be the lifeline he needed.It had a calming effect that helped him to disconnect from stress；and his astonishing images，showing insects and spiders in amazing detail against brightly colored backgrounds，caught the eye of publishers at National Geographic. "I ended up as one of their featured photographers，" recalled Doogue. "It was the peak of my career.It was incredible."
     Originally from Salford，Greater Manchester，he now lives in Armadale，West Lothian，Scotland.Though he fears that Scotland is in the middle of an epidemic （流行?。?of male suicide，he believes that sharing his love of nature photography can help others to cope with their mental health issues as well. "I think the problem is this man-up approach；the idea that men need to be strong puts so much pressure on young males to be fine all the time，" says Doogue. "This is why I try and be so open about my own experience.Whenever I am out with my camera，I don't think about my other worries.It is just me and the environment around me.You can lose yourself in a spider making its web."

• 3．Have you ever found picking out the face of a friend in a group photo is sometimes hard，especially when everyone crowds together？In the same way，it can also be hard to read a passage of text when the letters are too close together.In fact，a new study shows that spacing the letters farther apart can help anyone read faster，and possibly understand more.
     Dyslexia is a common reading disorder.Crowded text was especially difficult for people with dyslexia to read.So researchers wanted to see if increasing the spacing between letters would help.
     Steven Stagg，a scientist，studies how people think and learn.His team recruited 59 students between 11 and 15 years old，thirty-two of whom had dyslexia.While the researchers recorded them，each student read two passages out loud.One passage was in its original format.In the other，there was an increase of 2.5 points in the spacing between the litters.The recording allowed the scientists to measure their reading speed and count any mistakes，such as skipped words.
     People with dyslexia often employ aids to help them read，such as colored overlays （覆蓋物）.This time they are offered by the researchers.Those colored overlays didn't help either group of kids.However，kids with dyslexia read the wider-spaced text 13 percent faster than the text with original spacing.These kids also made fewer mistakes.Students without dyslexia read faster，too，although only by 5 percent.
     This is very good news.It means teachers and publishers can print material with extra spacing between litters.Readers with dyslexia won't feel singled out by having to use special aids for reading.An organization called Readability Matters is working on these issues.The group is trying to get tech companies to make changes that should make reading easier.
     Stagg says， "Some methods have shown mixed results，but Letter spacing seems to be the one thing that everyone is finding works."
  
  （1）What is the purpose of the first paragraph？

  
  A．To make the article interesting.
  B．To present a common problem.
  C．To lead to the topic of the article.
  D．To provide a new solution.
  （2）What do you know about people with Dyslexia？

  
  A．They may understand everything while reading wider-spaced text.
  B．They may read faster than normal kids while reading wider- spaced text.
  C．They may free from dyslexia after increasing letter spacing.
  D．They may feel singled out while using colored layouts for reading.
  （3）In which column of a newspaper can we probably find this passage？

  
  A．Science study.
  B．Campus life.
  C．Star stories.
  D．Business.
  （4）What is the best title for the text？

  
  A．Readers Try to Improve Reading Speed.
  B．You Just Need More Space.
  C．Colored Overlays Are Helpful Aids.
  D．Dyslexia Affects Reading Speed.
