The pursuit of lasting happiness has long been a subject of interest for scientists and surveys alike. But what makes us really happy and what lasting benefits does happiness have? Earlier this month, scientists from the University of Illinois found the people who are happy and positive about life live longer. The researchers found clear and compelling(令人信服的)evidence that happiness is key when it comes to better health and longer lifespan. Last month a British study, which tracked members of 40 000 households across the country, concluded that eating a family meal at least three times a week is the key to happiness because it helps build a strong bond between parents and their children. But happiness might be decided when you were born. Names can apparently predict how happy we are as individuals, with researchers at Manchester Metropolitan University claiming that people called Judy and Joshua enjoy life the most. Ben, Andrew and Edward are seen as miserable names on the other hand. Married couples are most likely to be happy with their relationships, according to the study. Research has also suggested that happiness begins at 50. A study from Stony Brook University, New York, found that stress, anger and worry fade after your 50th. Women were also reported to suffer greater stress, worry and sadness at all ages. Money makes the world go round, but it is not the key to happiness, according to other studies. In 2008, a survey found that British families were healthier and twice as well-off as they were 20 years ago, but were not happier. However, other studies have found money can buy you happiness after all, but only if you spend it wisely. Indeed, that might be why a good holiday can boost your happiness levels “for up to two months“ after—although the break has to be “very relaxing“ to have such an effect.

W: Guess what, Mike? My husband bought me a digital camera as a birthday present! M: (18)It’s about time you got a new one. You’ve been using the old one for years. Let me see. Wow, it’s the newest model and has all the latest functions. W: Yeah, but I’m not sure about how to operate it. Can you please help me, Mike? M: Sure. I don’t mind helping you figure out how it works. (19)How about you take a picture of me first? I want to see how good your camera is. Here, I’ll adjust the flash for you so that it’s not too bright. W: Are you ready? I’m going to zoom in for a close-up. Say cheese, Mike! M: OK, cheese! W: Here, have a look and tell me what you think of the new camera. I’ve already taken a few snapshots of my parents and friends with it. M: Well, with this model, you won’t have to charge the batteries for too long. Another advantage is that it’s slim, so it won’t take up too much space in your bag. I’m impressed. I mean the quality of the images is amazing. (20)I can’t say the same about your photography skills, though! 18. What do we know about the woman? 19. What does the man suggest first to check the camera? 20. What does the man imply about the woman at last? She is not satisfied with her birthday present. She has got two digital cameras for her birthday. She has been using an old digital camera for ages. She will teach the man how to operate the camera.

Now, young people are grabbing their passports and travel around the world on their own, not because they have no one to travel with, but because they prefer to go solo. Kristina Wegscheider, from San Jose in California, US, first traveled unaccompanied when she was at college and believes that it is something everyone should do at least once in their life. “In high school I wouldn’t have felt comfortable doing much of anything on my own, but as I have got older I’ve found that I love traveling on my own, especially in a country where I don’t know the language. “ Wegscheider has visited 46 countries spanning all seven continents. Foreign lands can be tricky to navigate at the best of times. But with no one to help you read a map, look after you if you get ill, or lend you money if your wallet is stolen, they are challenging. This is what drives young people to go solo It is seen as character building, since going solo is a chance to prove that they can make it on their own. Chris Richardson decided to leave his sales job in Australia to go backpacking last year. He set up a website, The Aussie Nomad, to document his adventures. He says he wished he had gone solo earlier. “Be it the people you meet, the places you visit, or the things you do, everything is off your own back and it forces you to grow as a person,“ said the 30-year-old. “To tackle university or a job with that kind of experience would have been a major bonus to me,“ he said. Richardson describes traveling alone as like “a shot in the arm,“ which “unleashed(释放)a better more confident person that was ready to tackle anything.“

I hate driving. I hate the traffic, the confusing design of highways in my city and the long periods of sitting with nothing tc do but listen to the radio. Besides, I am a nervous, slow driver, fearful of other cars and distracted drivers. But I live in a spacious Southwestern city with limited public transportation and intense heat that makes long-distance walking or biking tough for much of the year. So driving is a fact of life for me. My fears, though, have only been further confirmed by a sad series in The New York Times called “Driven to Distraction“ about the dangers of using cellphones and of texting while driving. One article cited a new study, by the Virginia Tech Transportation Institute, which found that when truck drivers texted, their collision risk was 23 times greater than when not texting. Another article cited research that drivers using phones are four times as likely to cause a crash as other drivers—and that driving while talking on a cell is akin(类似的)to being legally drunk. Hands-free devices, meanwhile, don’t eliminate these risks, according to studies. In fact, they may worsen them by giving drivers a false sense of security. Because I’m such a weak driver, I try not to talk or answer my phone on the road unless it’s urgent or traffic is at a standstill(停止). But for many people, especially those with long commutes and important business to take care of, talking or texting while driving is common, and perhaps necessary. I am amazed by how man)interviews I’ve conducted for articles with subjects talking to me while driving: I can sometimes hear the sound of horns and the music of NPR(美国国家公共广播电台)turned down in the background.

As the holidays approach, many people are finishing their travel plans. And they have【C1】______themselves for the usual crowds, long security lines and inevitable delays. This period, planes will be even more tightly【C2】______as airlines continue to cut capacity(容量) 【C3】______the end of the year and into the next,【C4】______as more passengers take to the skies. But【C5】______crowds aren’t the only differences that holiday travelers can expect this year. Some changes,【C6】______improved security screenings for children, will be welcome,【C7】______won’t.

The policy change, which【C13】______as part of a test in August by the Tra asportation Security Administration and became【C14】______last month, also reduces pat-downs(搜身检查)of children, though doesn’t【C15】______eliminate. Now, children may be【C16】______through detectors or image machines multiple times to【C17】______for traces of explosives, instead of a pat-down.【C18】______must still go through the usual drill of removing shoes, jackets, belts and watches:【C19】______out laptops and cellphones: and making sure their 3.4-ounce rubes of toothpaste is【C20】______sealed in a plastic bag.

W: I hear the law on car in London is very interesting. So, John, could you tell me about that? M: Yes, first of all, you should know that each London driver takes an examination called “the knowledge.“ W: Is it easy to pass that examination? M: Not really. (11)I remember passing it took me two years and I hear now it’ll take people one year more. W: I get the impression that in London, rules are very strict about taxis. Besides “the knowledge,“ is there something called “the license“? Is it necessary to get a new license every year? M: No, (12) each driver needs to get a new license every three years. But the taxi has to be inspected thoroughly every year, no matter you rent it or own it. W: Do you feel proud to be a driver in London? Are you a native Londoner? M: Actually, I was born in Birmingham. W: What do you do in your spare time? M: (13)Well, I go to body-building gym center. That takes most of my spare time. W: (13)Seems that you live quite a leisure and healthy life. M: Yeah, you’re right. 11. How long will it take to learn “the knowledge“ now? 12. What does the man say about the license? 13. What does the man like to do in his spare time? Two months. One year. Two years. Three years.

I’ve always been concerned with performance. I’m a list person. I love the feeling of crossing things off. It makes me feel 【T1】______. Plus, consistent productivity has the wonderful byproduct of 【T2】______more. Jeff Haden’s recent article on LinkedIn offers a refreshing 【T3】______to the “how do I get them all done“ problem. His solution: limit your daily to-do list to at most 10 things, and don’t 【T4】______yourself up if you don’t get them all done. It’s the list of six things I try to do every workday. They are: read something 【T5】______to my industry and business development: send two emails to touch base with old 【T6】______: have a little chat with every employee: 【T7】______my top three goals for my company that are focused on its growth: identify and execute one task to support each of my top three goals: 【T8】______.

Because over the years, 【T10】______.

As for the jobs that pay well, it is well known that college-educated workers earn higher salaries because their jobs require more education and advanced skills. In addition, fewer workers have college degrees, so they are harder to find in【D1】______to workers without degrees. Indeed, according to the most recent US Census Bureau data, 19 percent of Americans hold a bachelor’s degree, while nearly 31 percent have a high school【D2】______ Census data also show that the mean income for a college graduate is $58 613, significantly【D3】______than the $31 283 average income for a high school graduate.

Experience is also an important factor because many employers【D7】______years of experience more than years of education. These jobs not requiring a degree aren’t easy to【D8】______nor are they easy to start. That’s not to say you shouldn’t earn a bachelor’s or graduate degree if you want. However, if college isn’t the【D9】______option for you or if it’s not a plausible option in the short term, consider those【D10】______that don’t require a college degree but pay well.

(14)Today, I’d like to say something about our memory. Memory ca,n be improved in many ways. In fact, I believe we all have the ability to remember up to six times more than we actually do. A lot of people find that forming a picture of information in the mind is very helpful. For example, if you are trying to remember a telephone number, write it down on a piece of paper. Remembering people’s names is very difficult for a lot of people.(15)I suggest that when you are introduced to someone, you should try to remember his or her first name. It probably won’t make anyone upset if you have to say, “What was your last name again, Sarah?“ But Sarah might be upset if you forget her first name. Of course, regular breaks are important and it’s better not to work for long periods of time without taking one.(16)Stopping to rest about every 20 minutes is the best. Finally, take care of your body. Don’t drink or take things like coffee, alcohol or drugs, because they make the mind dull.(17)And don’t forget your vitamins—they are particularly good for memory. 14. What is this passage mainly about? 15. How can we remember a name according to the speaker? 16. How often should we have a break according to the speaker? 17. Why does the speaker suggest we take vitamins? How to remember others’ names. How to take care of our body. How to improve our memory. How to take vitamins properly.
