25、dy reported.“Our study suggests that the effect of physical activity may be quite large,” John Reilly, a professor at the University of Strathclyde said. The researchers looked at a sample of about 5000 children who were involved in a long-term study that tracks children born in the UK between 1991
26、and 1992. When children reached 11 years old, their daily physical activity levels were measured using an accelerometerfor three to seven days. The device, similar to a pedometer(计步器)tracking the number of steps taken, recorded the average time children exercised, which was 29 minutes a day for boys
27、 and 18 minutes for girls.“The actual levels of daily physical activity at age 11 were quite low,” Mr. Reilly noted. The children had their academic performance tested at ages 11 and 13 with compulsory national tests for students, and also at 15 or 16 with the General Certificate of Secondary Educat
28、ion (GCSE) exam. The tests assessed the childrens abilities in English, math and science subjects. When factors that could affect academic performance including birth weight, mothers age at delivery and other socioeconomic factors were adjusted for, the results showed that the more children particip
29、ated in moderate andenergetic physical activity, the higher their test scores were at age 11 in all three subjects. For girls, science scores were most strongly linked to exercise.When they followed up with the kids at age 13, their academic scores were still linked to how much they had exercised wh
30、en they were 11 years old. By the time the youngsters took the GCSE exam, each 17-minute-per-day increase in physical activity for the boys was linked to an improvement in their scores. Every additional 12-minute increase a day in exercise for the girls was also linked to an increased score as well,
31、 especially in the science category.The researchers have called for more studies to look at the possible academic benefits that could be gained if students exercise the recommended 60 minutes or more a day.28. How did the researchers carry out the study?A. By asking different questions.B. By using t

Its
35、 not a story of climate change, though that certainly contributed. Its a case of water mismanagement.Scientists call it a contemporary environmental catastrophe to rethink how the resource is managed in water-scarce countries.Researchers blame water overuse and inefficiency in agriculture, new dams
36、and irrigation projects, a bridge cutting across the lake, declining rainfall and rising temperatures for much of the drying out.For me this is a really important topic: the environmental problems in the world, says photographer Maximilian Mann, who traveled to Iran three times to document the bare
37、land once obscured under saltwater.His photos are collected from all three trips.In his experience, Mann says, it was easier to find men who were willing to be photographed because many of the women in rural areas near Lake Urmia are more conservative than in cities and dont like being photographed
38、by men. So its important to gain their belief when he wants to take pictures of them.Lake researchers and advocates say there have been encouraging signs in the past few years. This past spring, massive flooding in Iran helped the lake regain water level as well. Manns photos were taken before that
39、flooding.The floods certainly helped and increased the water levels, says Amir AghaKouchak, a professor of civil and environmental engineering at the University of California, who has studied the lake. However, one or a series of floods wont have a long-term impact. The main issue in the basin is th
