    Are people happier in nature with blue skies overhead and fresh green grass underfoot? Could noisy streets, {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (crowd) with cars and people, make us unhappy? The World Health Organization estimates that 54 percent of the world's population lived in urban areas in 2014. The WHO adds that that amount {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (increase) to 66 percent by 2050.

    People often move to cities for{#blank#}3{#/blank#} (good) jobs and more cultural activities. But are they putting {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(they) at risk?

    Experts say that natural environments or green spaces do a lot of good for our mental health.

    Many studies have shown that nature can calm us and make us feel happy. Nature, experts say, can also help us learn better. And {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (experience) nature helps people recover from the mental tiredness that {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(come) from day-to-day work.

Mental health experts say some research suggests that city living might hurt our mental health, {#blank#}7{#/blank#} they cannot say exactly why. “What are the specific{#blank#}8{#/blank#} (aspect) of the urban environment {#blank#}9{#/blank#}causes some people to develop mental health issues?” asked AndraMechelli, a doctor at Kings College, London.

    Researchers have found that being outdoors, seeing trees, hearing birdsong, seeing the sky, and being {#blank#}10{#/blank#}touch with nature are associated with higher levels of mental well-being.

    Stan Lee, who dreamed up Spider-Man, Iron Man, the Hulk and other Marvel Comics (漫威漫画) superheroes that became highly successful at the movie box office, died at the age of 95, his daughter said on Monday.

    "{#blank#}1{#/blank#} (know) as a writer and editor, he felt a duty to his fans to keep creating," his daughter J. C. Lee said in a {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (state). "He loved his life and he loved {#blank#}3{#/blank#} he did for a living. His family and his fans loved him. He was irreplaceable." Lee was {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (wide) credited with adding a new layer of humanity to superheroes. His characters were not made of stone. They had love and money worries and suffered terrible shortcomings or feelings of insecurity.

    "I felt {#blank#}5{#/blank#} would be fun to show that they are human as well as super," Lee said in 2010. Many of Marvel Comics movies Lee created were produced in the first decades of the 21^st century, {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (add) up to over $20 billion at theaters worldwide, according to box office analysts.

    In 2008, Lee {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (award) the National Medal of Arts, {#blank#}8{#/blank#} highest government award for creative {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (artist). His greatest contribution will be not only the co-creation of his characters but the way he helped to build the culture that comics have become, {#blank#}10{#/blank#} is a pretty significant one," said Robert Thompson, a pop culture expen at Syracuse University.
