A new study found that inner-city kids living in neighborhoods with more green space gained about 13% less weight over a two-year period than kids living amid more concrete and fewer trees. Such【C1】________tell a powerful story. The obesity epidemic began in the 1980s, and many people【C2】________it to increased portion sizes and inactivity, but that can’t be everything. Fast foods and TVs have been with us for a long time. "Most experts agree that the changes were【C3】________to something in the environment," says social epidemiologist Thomas Glass of The Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. That something could be a【C4】________of the green.
The new research,【C5】________in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine, isn’t the first to associate greenery with better health, but it does get us closer【C6】________identifying what works and why. At its most straightforward, a green neighborhood【C7】________means more places for kids to play—which is【C8】________since time spent outdoors is one of the strongest correlates of children’s activity levels. But green space is good for the mind【C9】________: research by environmental psychologists has shown that it has cognitive【C10】________for children with attention-deficit disorder. In one study, just reading【C11】________in a green setting improved kids’ symptoms.

Glass cautions that most studies don’t【C15】________prove a causal link between greenness and health, but they’re nonetheless helping spur action. In September the U.S. House of Representatives【C16】________the delightfully named No Child Left Inside Act to encourage public initiatives【C17】________exposing kids to the outdoors.
Finding green space is not【C18】________easy, and you may have to work a bit to get your family a little grass and trees. If you live in a suburb or a city with good parks,【C19】________what’s there. Your children in particular will love it—and their bodies and minds will be【C20】________to you.
【C20】
选项
A、elevated
B、contented
C、merciful
D、grateful
答案
D
解析
形容词辨析题。此处句意为“孩子们的身心健康________你”,对比四个选项,grateful“感激的”代入空格,句意通顺。be grateful to表示“对……表示感激”,此处的意思是“孩子的身心健康要归功于你”,故选D项。A项be elevated to指的是“被提升到……”,代入空格“孩子们的身心健康________你”句意不通。住在郊区或附近有公园的城市是为孩子提供了绿色环境,孩子对大人应是心怀感激,B项contented“满足的”与C项merciful“仁慈的。慈悲的”不符合文中语境。
