37.D根据上文“Some people are now advocating the therapeutic value of cooking food.It's not just about the end result but the experience someone goes through.”以及后文"They help patients develop planning skills,short-term memory and social skills-all ofwhich suffer in mental illness.”可知,本段核心是“烹饪的治疗价值”,前文提到“烹饪的体验而非结果更重要”,后文衔接“它们帮助患者培养规划能力、短期记忆和社交技能”。D项“烘焙和烹饪已被证实是有效的疗法”,既呼应“治疗价值”的主题,又为后文“帮助患者”的具体作用提供依据,承上启下。故选D。38.C根据上文“TV chef and author Nadiya Hussain agrees that cooking is greatt forhelping our mind.She loves to bake and became the champion of the TV show,TheGreat British Bake Off.She says that baking has never really been about the cake."及后文“And she thinks that baking is an important tool for our socialization.”可知,前文引用Nadiya的观点“烘焙从来都不只是为了蛋糕”,C项“重要的是烘焙带来的平静感”直接解释了“不只是为了蛋糕”的核心一烘焙的心理价值,与后文“烘焙是社交的重要工具”共同构成Nadiya支持“烹饪有益心理”的理由,逻辑连贯。故选C。
