Jim found himself exhausted during a trip. When he came home, he went to see a doctor. “The reason I was
tired, ” Jim says, “was that my kidneys (肾脏)were gone. ”
Jim, 69, a former Air Force pilot, immediately started dialysis(透析) three days a week. A person of his age on
dialysis usually lives only about four years. Transplants are a long-shot alternative. The National Kidney
Foundation estimates that 13 people die every day while waiting for a donor with the right blood and tissue types.
Jim’s wife, nephew and four family friends offered but weren’t a match. Jim was so discouraged that he was
even considering not attending a reunion of some Air Force buddies(铁哥们). But his wife encouraged him to
reunite with his old friends, among whom was one he hadn’t seen in 50 years: Doug Coffman. The two had met
when they both were learning Vietnamese before they went overseas.
Doug, then 70, felt a strong bond with his band of brothers, even though he hadn’t seen some of them in
decades. Their connection went beyond the battlefield in ways most soldiers never experience.
Doug had received help from his friends when he was in trouble, so he felt like it was a time that he could pay
that ahead by donating a kidney to Jim. Fortunately, series of testing revealed not only that Doug’s tissue type
matched Jim’s but also that he had the kidneys of a 35-year-old.
The transplant was a success. “It’s pretty miraculous to be able to take an organ out of one person’s body—a
living organ—put it in another person’s body, and have it work, ” Doug says. “And there’s nothing finer than
knowing I’ve helped another person live a better life. ”

There have been many studies that show being in nature is good for your health. Walking in the woods is good
for your well-being. Living near trees can help you live longer. But when you go for a walk in the woods, what is it
particularly about being in nature or being outdoors that makes you feel good? Is it the sights or smells or sounds?
A new study finds it might have something to do with the birds you hear while you have a walk.
Researchers from California Polytechnic State University analyzed how much the natural sounds people hear
when they’re outdoors influence well-being. They found that the “chorus ( 合唱)” of birds singing increased well-
being in protected natural areas.
For the study, researchers placed 10 hidden, evenly spaced speakers(扬声器) on two parts of trails(小路) in
the Boulder Open Space and Mountain Parks in Colorado. They played recorded songs from 11 kinds of birds. The
researchers take turns to play the birdsong for a few hours a day for a week, and then turned off the speakers for a
week at a time. They interviewed hikers after they passed through the areas with the speakers.
“The main result is that hikers that heard the birdsong responded to questions that showed a higher level of
well-being compared to those that did not hear the birdsong,” Biology Professor Clinton Francis, who led the
research, says.
Hikers who heard more birdsong on the first part of the trail said they felt better. Those who heard more
birdsong on the second part reported that they thought more birds lived along that part of the trail. This feeling of
more birds helps make the hikers feel better. “With the chorus, we were able to show that natural sounds have a
clear effect on the quality of hikers’ experiences,” says Francis.
8. What’s the function of the questions in paragraph 1?
A. To bring in the topic of the text. B. To advise people to walk in nature.
C. To call on people to care about nature. D. To raise doubt about the research done before.
9. Why were the speakers placed along the trails?
A. To broadcast chorus live. B. To remind hikers of their health.
C. To improve people’s well-being. D. To play sounds of different birds.
10. What was the final step of the research?
A. Recording. B. Comparing. C. Photographing. D. Interviewing.
11. What is the best title for the text?
A. Being in nature is good for people’s heath.
B. Walking in forests help people live longer.
C. Hearing birdsongs is good for people’s health.
D. Raising birds improves people’s living quality.
D
