         Sports can help you keep fit and get in touch with nature. However, whether you are on the mountains,
    in the waves, or on the grassland, you should make it clear that your choice of sports might have great
    influence on the environment.
         Some sports are resource-hungry. Golf, as you may know, eats up not only large areas of countryside,
    but also tons of water. Besides, all kinds of chemicals and a great deal of energy are used to keep its fields
    in good condition. This causes environmental problems. For example, in the dry areas of Portugal and Spain,
    golf is often the cause of serious water shortage in some places.
         There are many environment-friendly sports. Power walking is one of them that you could take up today.
    You don't need any special equipment except a good pair of shoes; and your don't have to worry about
    resources (资源) and you purse. Simple and free, power walking can also keep you fit. If you walk very
    often, it will be good for your heart and bones. Experts (专家) say that 20 minutes of power walking daily
    can make you feel less nervous, sleep well and have better weight control.   
         Whatever sport you take up,you can make it greener by using environment-friendly equipment and buying
    products made from recycled materials (再生材料). But the final purpose should be "green gyms". Compared
    with traditional health clubs and modern sports centers, they are better choices. Members of green gyms play
    sports outdoors, in the countryside or other open spaces. There is no special requirement for you to start your
    membership. And best of all, it's free.

         A research shows that expressions on our faces have a strong relationship with our genes (基因).
    According to the study, facial expressions of our feelings are innate and are not achieved in cultural
    learning.
         This is the first research to show that blind people have the same facial expressions as the sighted
    when showing certain feelings-the same facial muscles (肌肉) start working. What's more, the research
    gives the new method of how people control their feelings in certain social situations. It states that people
    do not leam to manage their facial expressions by examining the expressions of others.
         In his study, David Matsumoto, San Francisco State University Psychology Professor, examined
    facial expressions of bhnd and sighted judo athletes (柔员) that took part in the Summer Olympics and
    Paralympics (残奥会). He examined over 4 800 pictures of different athletes who came from 23 countries.
    Matsumoto found that both blind and sighted sportsmen had the same facial expressions, according to a
    specific social situation.
         "This suggests genes decide facial expressions of feelings," he said.
         One of his findings was the "social smiles" of judo athletes who lost their match and got the second
    place. It is interesting to find that only mouth muscles are used in social smiles, while during real smiles,
    shown when a person is really happy, the eyes of a person twinkle and get smaller and the cheeks (脸颊)
    rise.
         "Losers pu8hed their lower lip up as if to control the feeling on their face and many produced social
    smiles," said Matsumoto. "People blind from birth were unable to leam to manage their feelings with the
    help of examining others' facial expressions." He thought that there must be another system involved.
         "It's possible that in order to hide sad feelings, humans have developed a system that closes the mouth
    so that they are stopped from crying, biting or rudeness," he said.
    1. The underlined word "innate" in the first paragraph means _____.
    A. from birth
    B. from daily life
    C. from others
    D. from teaching
    2. According to the passage, real smiles are different from social smiles in _____.
    A. opening the eyes
    B. using facial muscles
    C. closing the mouth
    D. watching others' expressions
    3. How does the writer make us believe the new findings?
    A. By telling us an interesting story.
    B. By interviewing some researchers.
    C. By showing the results of the research.
    D. By giving the answers to the questions.
    4. Which can be the best title for the passage?
    A. Smiles and Olympics
    B. Blind and Sighted Athletes
    C. Social Smiles and Real Smiles
    D. Genes and Facial Expressions

         If you have a chance to go to Finland, you will probably be surprised to find how "foolish" the Finnish
    people are.
         Take the taxi drivers for example. Taxis in Finland are mostly high-class Benz with a fare (车费) of two
    US dollars a kilometer. You can go anywhere in one, tell the driver to drop you at any place, say that you
    have some business to attend to, and then walk off without paying your fare. The driver will not show the
    least sign of anxiety.
         The dining rooms in all big hotels not only serve their guests, but also serve outside eaters. Hotel guests
    have their meals free, so they naturally go to the free dining room to have their meals. The only thing they
    need to do is to wave their room cards to the waiter. With such a loose check, you can easily use any old
    room card to take a couple of friends to eat dinner free of charge.
         The Finnish workers are paid by the hour. They are very much on their own as soon as they have agreed
    with the boss on the payment. From then on they just say how many hours they have worked and they will
    be paid accordingly.
         With so many loopholes (漏洞) in everyday life, surely Finland must be a heaven to those who love to
    take "small advantages". But the strange thing is: all the taxi passengers will always come back to pay their
    fare after they have dealt with their business; not a single outsider has ever been found in the free hotel dining
    room; and workers always give an honest answer of the exact hours they put in. As the Finns always act on
    good trust in everything they do, living in such a society has tumed everyone into a real "gentleman".
    1. Are the Finns really foolish?
        ________________________________________________________
    2. What is the taxi fare in Finland? 
        ________________________________________________________
    3. Who should have free dinners in hotels?
