19、d the city to have their results developed and exhibited. Six months after that, the Future Library in Oslo, Norway, will open its doors for the first time, presenting 100 books printed on the wood of trees planted in the distant past of 2014.As Katie Paterson, the creator of the Future Library, put
20、s it: Future Library is an artwork for future generations.These projects, more than a century in the making, are part of a new wave of slow art,? intended to push viewers and participants to think beyond their own lifetimes. They aim to challenge todays short-term thinking and the brief attention sp
21、ans of modern consumers, forcing people into considering works more deliberately. In their way, too, they are fighting against modern culture -not just regarding money, but also the way in which artistic worth is measured by attention.In a similar fashion, every April on Slow Art Day, visitors are e
22、ncouraged to stare at five works of art for 10 minutes at a time - a tough task for the average museum visitor, who typically spends less than 30 seconds on each piece of art.Like the Future Library, the century cameras are very much a project fbr cities, since its in cities that time runs fastest a
23、nd the pace of life is fastest. Since I started living in a city, Ive somehow been quite disconnected,“ Anne Beate Hovind, the Future Library project manager, who described how working on the library drew her back to the pace of life she knew when she was growing up on a farm in her youth, told The

More plants and animals in cities make for happier, healthier people.A study conducted on green spaces in Sheffield, England, for ins
28、tance, revealed that the greater the biodiversity（生物多样 性），the greater the psychological well-being（健康）of the citys citizens. In Paris, researchers found that getting citizens to take part in day-long activities involving urban wildlife opened their eyes to the natural world for a time, at least.Few
29、cities have been associated with urban ecology fbr as long as Berlin. Slow economic recovery after the Second World War meant that reconstruction would take a long time. This provide local ecologist with the ideal conditions to develop an ambitious ecological research program in the bombed-out waste
30、lands of West Berlin J said Jens Lachmund, a sociologist at the University of Maastricht in the Netherlands.The pioneering work in Berlin bad several consequences, especially the formation of significant natural spaces within the city, such as the Sudgelande Nature. Berlin has indeed benefited a lot
31、 from being a case study in urban ecology,“ said Lachmund.The recent research conducted by Mark Goddard, a biologist at the University of Leeds, and his colleagues confirmed the importance of natural space within an urban setting. Goddard and his team conducted a striking global analysis of bird and
32、 plant diversity, quantifying the influence of urbanization on levels of biodiversity around the world. Functioning urban ecosystems will be extremely important to human health and well-being,said Goddard.Cities take up just 3% of the land surface area, yet according to the most recent figure from t
33、he United Nations, some 3. 6 billion people (just over 50% of the global population) now live in urban areas. By 2050, this figure is expected to rise to 6.3 billion.

36、 more natural spaces?C. Should more people live in urban areas?D. Should the global population be controlled now?Text 4Spending money on time-saving services reduces stress and boosts(增进)happiness, according to a new research, but shockingly, few of us do it.Whillans, a professor at HBS said, “ Buyi
37、ng time helps to protect us from the stress in our lives caused by time pressure, and the feeling that we dont have enough minutes in the day to complete our tasks.The effect was clearest in the Canadian experiment, in which 60 working adults were given $40 to spend in two different ways. One weeken
38、d, they were told to spend the money on a material purchase-a gift for themselves. The next weekend, they were instructed to spend the $40 on anything that saved them time, from paying the neighbor s kid to run errands （跑腿）to taking an Uber instead of a bus.On the day they made the time-saving purch
39、ase, they felt happier, in a better mood, and lower feelings of time stress than on the day they bought a material purchase, said Whillans.The biggest surprise to the researchers was how few people would spend money on time-saving services. When they asked 98 working adults how they would spend a “w
40、indfall of $40, only two percent named a purchase that would save them time.“One reason, said Whillans, is that we re very bad at remembering how much we hate doing certain tasks once the suffering has passed. That makes us less likely to take active steps to avoid that overburdened feeling in the f
41、uture.But another possible cause is good old-fashioned guilt. If you feel guilty about getting someone to clean your house fbr you, then you might get less happiness from outsourcing （夕卜包）that task, “ said Whillans,u or you might just be less likely to spend your money in that way.1、In the Canadian

The good old-fashioned guilt.B The feeling of spending,money on goods.C. The stress of having someone clean your house.D. The discomfort when completi
