as children—building something, tearing it down, then building it up again.
Research shows that given 15 minutes of free play, four- and five-year-olds will
spend a third of this time engaged in spatial, mathematical, and architectural
activities. This type of play—especially with building blocks—helps children
discover and develop key principles in math and geometry.
A) Stimulate their interest as early as possible.

51．What does the recent study say about online CBT programs?四级考前冲刺「阅读」
第1段 Online programs to fight depression are already commercially available.
While they sound efficient and cost-saving, a recent study reports that they are
not effective, primarily because depressed patients are not likely to engage with
them or stick with them.
第2段 The study looked at computer-assisted cognitive ( 认知的 ) behavioral
therapy (CBT) and found that it was no more effective in treating depression
than the usual care patients receive from a primary care doctor.

52．What has made online CBT programs increasingly popular?四级考前冲刺「阅读」
第3段 Traditional CBT is considered an effective form of talk therapy for
depression, helping people challenge negative thoughts and change the way
they think in order to change their mood and behaviors. However, online CBT
programs have been gaining popularity, with the attraction of providing low-
cost help wherever someone has access to a computer.
52．What has made online CBT programs increasingly popular?

B) The low efficiency of traditional talk therapy.

York?四级考前冲刺「阅读」
第4段 A team of researchers from the University of York conducted a
randomized ( 随机的 ) control trial with 691 depressed patients from 83
physician practices across England. The patients were split into three groups:
one group received only usual care from a physician while the other two groups
received usual care from a physician plus one of two computerized CBT
programs. Participants were balanced across the three groups for age, sex,
educational background, severity and duration of depression, and use of
antidepressants ( 抗抑郁药 ).
53．What is the major finding by researchers at the University of York?
A) Online CBT programs are no more effective than regular care from physicians.
B) The process of treating depression is often more complicated than anticipated.
C) The combination of traditional CBT and computerized CBT is most effective.
D) Depression is a mental condition which is to be treated with extreme caution.四级考前冲刺「阅读」

54．What is Professor Dowrick’s advice concerning online CBT
programs?四级考前冲刺「阅读」
第6段 “It’s an important, cautionary note that we shouldn’t get too carried away
with the idea that a computer system can replace doctors and therapists,” says
Christopher Dowrick, a professor of primary medical care at the University of
Liverpool. “We do still need the human touch or the human interaction,
particularly when people are depressed.”
54．What is Professor Dowrick’s advice concerning online CBT programs?
A) They should not be neglected in primary care.
B) Their effectiveness should not be overestimated.
C) They should be used by strictly following instructions.
D) Their use should be encouraged by doctors and therapists.四级考前冲刺「阅读」
55．What is more important to an emotionally vulnerable person?四级考前冲刺「阅读」
第7段 Being depressed can mean feeling “lost in your own small, negative, dark
world,” Dowrick says. Having a person, instead of a computer, reach out to you is
particularly important in combating that sense of isolation. “When you’re
emotionally vulnerable, you’re even more in need of a caring human being,” he
says.
55．What is more important to an emotionally vulnerable person?
A) A positive state of mind. B) Appropriate medication.
C) Timely encouragement. D) Human interaction.四级考前冲刺「阅读」

A) Several times a month, you can find a doctor in the aisles of Ralph’s
market in Huntington Beach, California, wearing a white coat and helping
people learn about food. On one recent day, this doctor was Daniel
Nadeau, wandering the cereal aisle with Allison Scott, giving her some
ideas on how to feed kids who persistently avoid anything that is healthy.
“Have you thought about trying fresh juices in the morning?” he asks her.
“The frozen oranges and apples are a little cheaper, and fruits are really
good for the brain. Juices are quick and easy to prepare, you can take the
frozen fruit out the night before and have it ready the next morning.”四级考前冲刺「阅读」

Medicine—that is a formal specialty in using food to treat disease.
Research findings increasingly show the power of food to treat or reverse
diseases, but that does not mean that diet alone is always the solution, or
that every illness can benefit substantially from dietary changes.
Nonetheless, physicians say that they look at the collective data and a clear
picture emerges: that the salt, sugar, fat and processed foods in the
American diet contribute to the nation’s high rates of obesity, diabetes
and heart disease. According to the World Health Organization, 80 percent
of deaths from heart disease and stroke are caused by high blood pressure,
