D．Averagetime.解析：選B詞義猜測題。根據第三段中的“Spendingatleasttwohoursinnatureperweek”和畫線部分前的“such”可知，“suchaclearthresholdoftime”指上文提到的在大自然中至少度過兩個小時，故B項的含義“最低時間”與畫線詞組的含義最為接近。10．Fromthelastparagraph,wecaninferthatWhite________.A．isconfidentoffinishinghismissionB．iswillingtocooperatewithothersC．haspersuadedotherstoaccepthisideaD．hasadoptedthetermforhisresearchresult解析：選A推理判斷題。根據最后一段可知，懷特認為一些研究人員使用的術語“adoseofnature”能描述自然與健康，由此可知，懷特確信能完成自己的任務(當涉及健康時，給予大自然應得的尊重)，故選A。11．What'sthebesttitleforthepassage?A．RespectforNature B．NatureasMedicineC．APresentfromNature D．AMissioninNature解析：選B標題歸納題。本文主要介紹了環境心理學家馬修·懷特和他的團隊通過收集數據發現，每周在大自然中至少度過兩小時可以改善健康狀況，因此B項“自然即藥”最適合作整篇文章的標題。DHaveyoueverheardofagritourismwhereyoucanexperiencethefarmlife?Ifnot,DrCindyAyersElliottwilltellyoutherealstoryofFoodPrintFarms.TheoriginalconceptofbuildingFoodPrintFarmswassimple.WhenAyersElliottreturnedtoherhometownaftergraduation,shedidn'thavetolookanyfurtherthanherstate'salarminghealthstatisticstofindamission.Everywheresheturned,therewerereportsofhighbloodpressure,diabetes,obesityandheartdisease.“Theproblemwasalreadyidentified，”explainsAyersElliott.“ToomanyMississippianswereseriouslyunhealthyanditdidn'ttakeresearchtoseethat.Andmanyofthestate'sgreatesthealthchallengescoulddirectlyresultfrompoordiet.”Thesedays,FoodPrintFarms,whichstartedwithafewraisedbedsofherbsandvegetables,ismakingfresh,naturallygrownfood.“Whenspeakingofthekeytomysuccess,theco-opmodelworksbecausewesharetheworkandrewards，”notesAyersElliott.“AperfectexampleistheWingfieldHighSchoolfootballteam.Toearnthemoneyforequipmentandotheritems,playersmittedtoworkingfivehoursaweekonthefarm,andbytheendofthesummertheyproduced1,000melonsandtheprofitsfromtheirsaleshelpedtobuyweights,Tshirts,sweatsuitsandpregamemeals.Butthelessonstheylearnedabouttherewardsofhardworkandworkingtogethertoac“It'samodelthatcaneasilybelearnedinotherplacesandI'mlookingforwardtoseeingsomeofourcurrentpartners
