The Internet plays a big part in human life. We use it for work and pleasure. We use it to learn a new language. We find advice on it. We use it to connect with family and friends. We use it to stay in touch with events we care about. The list goes on and on.

As far as the Internet being a part of our lives—Well， that train has left the station. There is no going back to an Internet-free life. But can using the Internet too much be bad for our health？ It might be， say researchers. A new study finds that heavy Internet use may be connected to high blood pressure in a young group： teenagers.

The study results show that teens who spend at least 14 hours a week only may cause high blood pressure， which makes your heart and blood vessels （血管） work too hard. Over time， this extra pressure increases your risk of a heart attack. High blood pressure can also cause heart and other diseases （疾?。?

The Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit， Michigan did the study. 335 young people， from 14 to 17 years old， took part in it. 134 of the teens were described as “heavy Internet users”. And researchers found that out of these 134 teens， 26 had high blood pressure. The researchers say the study is the first to connect heavy web use with high blood pressure.

The lead researcher is Andrea Cassidy-Bushrow. She said， “Using the Internet is part of our daily life， but it shouldnt ruin us.” Ms Cassidy-Bushrow adds that it is important for teens to take regular breaks from their computers or smartphones and do some kind of physical activity. She also suggests that parents shouldnt let their children use the Internet for more than two hours a day， five days a week.

Throughout the history of the arts， the nature of creativity has remained constant （不變的） to artists. No matter what objects they select， artists are to bring forth new forces and forms that cause change—to find poetry where no one has ever seen or experienced it before.

Landscape is another unchanging element of art. It can be found from ancient times through the 17th-century Dutch painters to the 19th-century romanticists and impressionists. In the 1970s Alfred Leslie， one of the new American realists， continued this practice. Leslie sought out the same place where Thomas Cole， a romanticist， had produced paintings of the same scene a century and a half before. Unlike Cole who insists on a feeling of loneliness and the idea of finding peace in nature， Leslie paints what he actually sees. In his paintings， there is no particular change in emotions， and he includes ordinary things like the highway in the background. He also takes advantage of the latest developments of color photography to help both the eyes and the memory when he improves his painting back in his workroom.

Besides， all art begs the age-old question： What is real？ Each generation of artists has shown their understanding of reality in one form or another. The impressionists saw reality in brief emotional effects， the realists in everyday subjects and in forest scenes， and the Cro-Magnon cave people in their naturalistic drawings of the animals in the ancient forests. To sum up， understanding reality is a necessary struggle for artists of all periods.

Over thousands of years the function of the arts has remained relatively constant. Past or present， Eastern or Western， the arts are a basic part of our immediate experience. Many and different are the faces of art， and together they express the basic need and hope of human beings.

1. What does the underlined word “poetry” in Paragraph 1 mean？

A. An object for artistic creation. B. A collection of poems.

C. An unusual quality. D. A natural scene.

2. According to Paragraph 2， Leslies paintings ___ .

A. are close in style to works in ancient times

B. look like works by 19th-century painters

C. depend heavily on color photography

D. are about common things in life

3. What is the authors opinion of artistic reality？

A. It will not be found in future works of art.

B. It does not have a long-lasting standard.

C. It is expressed in a fixed artistic form.

D. It is rare in modern works of art.

4. What can we infer from the last paragraph about the arts？

A. They express peoples memories about the past.

B. They are considered important for variety in form.

C. They make people interested in everyday experience.

D. They are regarded as a mirror of the human life.
