There are dozens of papers showing tha

8、t,” University of Exeter Medical School researcher Mathew P.White said.“We get this idea-patients are coning to us and they are asking, Doctor, how long should I spend? And the doctor is saying,I dont really know.”So White and his team decided to find out by using data collected from nearly 20,000 p

9、eople in England through the Monitor of Engagement with the Natural Environment Survey. And their answer? Two hours a week. People who spent at least that much time in nature either all at once or totaled over several shorter visits were more likely to report good health and psychological well-being

10、 than those with no nature exposure.Remarkably, the two-hour standard applied to men and women, to older and younger folks, to people from different ethnic backgrounds, occupational groups, socioeconomic levels, and so on. Even people with long-term illnesses or disabilities benefited from time spen

16、loration of Mars, though its likely decades away. Technological challenges aside, as we continue to expand our exploration of Mars, there is a question: What might be the lessons of past voyages of discovery that we should think about?Human exploration has led to many extraordinary new discoveries,

17、but it has also led to the exploitation of resources. Not long after early European settlers arrived at America, they declared their independence and created the constitution by which modern American society functions. However, this did not prevent the settlers from referring to native people as sav

18、ages and taking away their rights to liberty, happiness, and even survival. Native Americans were quickly killed by wars and new diseases as the new settlers expanded their land. The natural environment, with which they had established a harmonious relationship, was similarly destroyed by the settle

The contributions of the related researches on chemistry, medicine and many others are potentially limitless. However, as we look to exploring worlds

21、 beyond our own, we need to begin now to look at history to consider how best to engage with different life forms, cultures and environments. We may be capable of writing a law, but we first need to clear our potential invasive impact on another planet that may be completely defenseless.8What does t
