Les Choristes is a heart-warming French film. The film tells the story of music teacher Clement Mathieu and his students. Musician Clement Mathieu arrives at an old boarding school to work as a music teacher for troubled boys. He feels like a failure. The middle-aged man has mixed feelings about how long he can last as a teacher for these boys. Rachin, the headmaster, is another unsuccessful man. He shows his dissatisfaction by punishing those students who are difficult to control.
It isn't long before Mathieu finds that some of the boys can sing. So he organizes a choir (合唱团) and has them sing musical pieces he has written.
Pierre is known in the school as a trouble-maker. But Mathieu sees that the boy has a great talent for singing, and then invites him to join the choir. This makes the boy's mom very happy, who is often upset about her boy's trouble at school. Moreover, Mathieu cares very much about his students. Pepinot is a boy who lost his parents. He is often treated poorly by other boys. It is Mathieu who gives him the affection, which makes him feel loved by people around.
Les Choristes was a huge hit in France and was chosen as the French entry (参赛作品) in the Oscar Awards (奥斯卡) for Best Foreign Language Film of 2005. Christophe Barratier, the film’s director, said he hoped that the film could show the healing power (治愈力) of music and the big difference good teachers can make to the lives of their students.

We already know that if we don't move much, we get fatter, we get heart problems and maybe we get other serious illnesses. But new studies have shown that it could hurt our mental health too.
A study of 937 Korean adults found that about one-third of them sat around for more than 7 hours each working day. It reported that people who sat for too long often showed more symptoms of depression (抑郁的症状). Another study studied children aged 12, 14 and 16. It found that the longer they sat, the higher depression scores they would get by age 18. According to the study, if eighteen-year-old children sat too often, they had depression scores 28 percent higher than those who were more active.
Scientists are not sure yet about the link (关联) between too much sitting and depression. But according to Mats Hallgren from the Karolinska Research Center in Britain, “sitting for too long can slow blood flow (流动) in the body, including blood flow to the brain,” It might also have an influence on the growth of neurons (神经细胞) in the brain. And couch potatoes might do other unhealthy things while sitting, such as eating junk food. All these may lead to depression.
The good news It's easy to overcome. Aaron Kandola from University College London, UK, said “all kinds of movement might help, even light activity. It is great to exercise and play sports,” said Kandola. “But anything you can do to avoid sitting for too long will help with stress and thinking clearly.” So why not move more often while working at a desk or sitting on a sofa to lead a healthier life
( ) 28. We can learn from the second paragraph that .
A. about 300 adults in the study sat for over 35hours each working week
B. Korean adults who always sat for longer hours are sure to be depressed
C. 28 percent of 18-vear-olds who were active had depression another study
( ) 29. Which of the following can best describe couch potatoes
A. Those whose blood flows more slowly than others.
B. Those who have fried chicken on the sofa without moving.
C. Those who don't like doing sports very often in their daily lives.
( ) 30. What is the writer's purpose of writing the passage
A. To encourage people to move more often.
B. To introduce the symptoms of depression.
C. To explain the reason why people sit too often.
( ) 31. According to the passage, which could be the best title
A. Don't be a couch potato B. Sports offer lots to enjoy C. A stronger mind, a healthier life
