СОЧ Task 1. Read text “Jogging in a forest great for mental health.” twice and complete the task below.
A new report says jogging in a forest can help stop mental health problems. Researchers say going for a run in the countryside is twice as good for you as going to the gym. The study, from a research team at Glasgow University, was reported by Britain's "Daily Telegraph" newspaper. It shows the positive effect of running through woodland on people who are depressed or stressed. Researchers said other outdoor activities also helped lower the risk of poor mental health. The researchers questioned nearly 2,000 people who exercised regularly. They compared the mental health of people who walked, ran or cycled in the countryside with those who exercised in the city or in a gym. They found that being around nature lowered people's stress levels. Head researcher professor Richard Mitchell said he knew exercising in the hills and forests was good for us, saying: "Being in areas that have lots of trees and grassy areas help to calm us down."
