It has been said that “Happiness is like a butterfly which, when run after, is always beyond our grasp, but which, if you sit down quietly, may dance beside you.”
Social scientists have caught the butterfly. After 40 years of research, they find happiness results from three major origins: genes, events and values. Armed with this knowledge and a few simple rules, we can improve our lives and the lives of those around us. We can even construct a system that carries out our founders’ promises and gives Americans the power to seek happiness.
Scientists have studied happiness for decades. They begin simply enough---by asking people how happy they are.
The data available to social scientists is the University of Chicago’s General Social Survey, a survey of Americans conducted since 1972. The numbers on happiness from the survey are surprisingly similar. Every other year for four decades, about a third of Americans have said they’re “very happy” and about half report being “pretty happy.” Only about 10 to 15 percent typically say they’re “not too happy.” Scientists have used advanced techniques to check these responses, and such survey results have proved accurate.
Beneath these averages are some differences. For many years, researchers found that women were happier than men, although recent studies show that the gap has narrowed or may even have changed to the opposite. Politicians might be interested to learn that traditional women feel particularly happy, about 40 percent say they are very happy which makes them
slightly happier than traditional men and obviously happier than open-minded women. The unhappiest of all are open-minded men; only about a fifth consider themselves very happy.
But even the people of the same age, sex, and so on vary in their happiness. What explains this?
The first answer involves our genes. Researchers at the University of Minnesota have tracked twins who were separated as babies and raised by separate families. These researchers found that we receive a surprising part of our happiness---around 48 percent from parents. (Since I discovered this, I’ve been blaming my parents for my bad moods.)
If about half of our happiness is determined by our genes, what about the other half? It’s attractive to suppose that one-time events---like getting a dream job or receive an unexpected gift---will permanently bring the happiness we seek. And studies suggest that such events do control a big part of our happiness---up to 40 percent.
But while one-time events do govern a fair amount of our happiness, each event’s influence proves rather short-lived. People suppose that major changes like moving to California or getting a big raise will make them permanently better off. They won’t. Huge goals may take years of hard work to meet, and the struggle itself may be worthwhile, but the happiness they create dissipates after just a few months.
To review: About half of happiness is genetically determined. Up to an additional 40 percent comes from the things that have occurred in our recent past---but that won’t last very long.
That leaves just about 12 percent. That might not sound like much, but the good news is that we can bring that 12 percent under our control. It turns out that choosing to seek four basic values of faith, family, community and work is the surest path to happiness, given that a certain percentage is genetic and not under our control in any way. To go after the happiness within our reach, we do best to devote ourselves to faith, family, community and meaningful work.
59. It can be inferred from Paragraph 4 and Paragraph 5 that______.
A. most Americans feel unhappy
B. women are always happier than men
C. about 40 % of American women are very happy
D. traditional men are happier than open-minded women
60. The underlined word “dissipates” (Paragraph 9) probably means _______.
A. occur B. return C. disappear D. last
61. Among the origins of happiness, _______.
A. age and sex contribute the most B. values are under control
C. events hardly perform a function D. genes play a tiny part
62. The main purpose of this passage is to _____.
A. advocate the ways of seeking happiness B. clarify the causes of lasting happiness
C. stress the importance of happiness D. show the results of the study on happiness
C
On the occasional clear-frost autumn night, I was hiking through the dark forest with my GMO wolf. Yes, my best friend is a genetically modified organism(转基因生物); deliberate selection has produced the blunt-toothed, small-pawed wonder that walks by my side.
Our world is changing rapidly. In the last five decades, global population has fully doubled, with 3.7 billion hungry mouths added to our planet. During this same time span, the amount of land suitable for agriculture has increased by only 5%. Miraculously, this did not result in the great global famine(饥荒)one might have predicted.
How do scientists modify a plant so that it makes more food than its parents did? We could treat each harvest like a litter of wolf pups and select only plants bearing the fattest, richest seeds for the next season. This was the method our ancestors used to engineer rice, corn and wheat from the wild grasses they encountered.
During my childhood, advances in genetic technologies allowed scientists to identify and clone the genes responsible for repressing stem growth, leading to shorter, stronger stalks that could bear more seed—the high-yield crops that feed us today. The 21st century has brought with it a marvelous new set of high-tech tools with which to further quicken the process of artificial selection. Plant geneticists can now directly edit out or edit in sections of DNA using molecular scissors. We can minimize a plant’s weaknesses while adding to its strengths, and we don’t have to wait for seasons to pass to test the result.
It is the transformative potential of these techniques to quickly supply the next-generation crops required for upcoming climate change that has led me to believe in the safety and function of GMO plants in agricultural products. We need more GMO research to feed the world that we are creating.
I love the quiet forest that stands between my lab and my home. But I know that as a scientist, I am responsible first to humanity. We must feed, shelter and nurture one another as our first priority, and to do so, we must take advantage of our best technologies, which have always included some type of genetic modification. We must continue as before, nourishing the future as we feed ourselves, and each year plant only the very best of what we have collectively engineered. I keep the faith of my ancestors each night when I walk through the forest to my lab, and my GMO wolf does the same when she guards my way home.
63. Why does the author mention the wolf in the 1st paragraph?
A. To advise people to keep wolves as pets.
B. To persuade readers to welcome the new technology.
C. To change people’s attitude towards wolves.
D. To introduce a technology used to humans’ advantage.
64. Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE according to the passage?
A. GMO technology will help weatherproof future crops.
B. With GMO technology, famine has been eliminated.
C. Artificial selections make high-yield plants possible.
D. The author believes technology should contribute to future generations.
65. What can be learned about modifying a plant?
A. It takes scientists seasons to know whether their selection is correct.
B. One way for ancestors to change a plant was to clone some genes.
C. Modern techniques help speed up the artificial selection by altering DNA.
D. The general public show strong faith in GMO plants.
66. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?
A. GMO Technology—Turning Wolves into the Best Pets
B. Engineered Food—Feeding Future Generations
C. Engineered Food—To Be or Not To Be
D. GMO Technology—A Driving Force in World Peace
D
My husband and I had been married nearly twenty-two years when I acquired Stevens-Johnson syndrome,a disorder where my immune system responded to a virus by producing
painful blisters(水疱). Although my long-term evaluation was good,I,who had been so fiercely independent,rapidly became absolutely helpless.
My husband,Scott,stepped up to the plate,taking care of kids and cooking dinners.He also became my personal caretaker,applying the medicine to all of my blisters because my hands couldn't do the job.Needless to say,I had negative emotions,bouncing from embarrassment to shame caused by total reliance on someone other than myself.
At one point when I had mentally and physically hit bottoms I remember thinking that Scott must somehow love me more than I could ever love him.With my illness he had become the stronger one,and I the weaker one.And this disturbed me.
I recovered from my illness,but I couldn't seem to recover from the thought that I loved my husband less than he loved me.This seeming distinction in our love continued to annoy me for the year following my illness.
Then recently Scott and I went on a long bike ride.He's an experienced cyclist;I'm quite the green hand.At one point with a strong headwind and sharp pain building in my tired legs,I really thought I couldn't go any further. Seeing me struggle,Scott pulled in front of me and yelled over his shoulder,"Stay close behind me."As I fell into the draft of his six-foot-three-inch frame and followed his steps,I discovered that my legs quit burning and I was able to catch my breath.My husband was pulling me along again.At this very moment I woke up to what I now believe: during these and other tough times,love has the opportunity to become stronger when one partner learns to lean on the other.
I pray my husband will always be strong and healthy.But if he should ever become the struggling one,whether on a bike ride or with an illness,I trust I'll be ready to call out to him: Stay close behind me—my turn to pull you along.
67. What made the author feel helpless?
A. Her treatment failure.
B. Her husband caring for her too much.
C. Her losing the previous independence.
D. Her suffer ring from illness and mental disorder.
68. Which of the following can best describe the author's husband?
A. Family-centered.
B. Not good at taking action.
C. Career-centered.
D. Independent but tired of negative emotions.
69. What did the author's husband do when going on the long bike ride?
A. Followed her closely. B. Gave in to her depression.
C. Backed her up all the way. D. Stopped to take care of her.
70. Which of the following can replace the underlined phrase “stepped up to the plate” in paragraph 2?
A. Moved into batting position. B. Began to take the responsibility.
C. Walked to the kitchen. D. Began to wash the plates.

Canada is a land with abundant fresh water. In the past it may have seemed that the fresh water resources were limitless. Over time, however, water pollution has damaged this resource.
There are three main types of water pollution: physical, biological, and chemical. Perhaps the least harmful but most obvious form of pollution is the physical variety. Floating garbage, old tires, pieces of paper, pop cans and bottles are not pleasant to look at. But this pollution is easily seen and its cleanup and prevention are relatively simple.
Biological contamination (n. 污染) refers to bacteria and algae(n. 藻类; 海藻) that enter lakes and rivers from a variety of sources. Waste water from cities and towns is the largest source of biological contamination. While most waste water is treated, not all treatment is adequate. Some enters water bodies without any treatment at all.
Some bacteria that occur naturally in rivers and lakes are able to cleanse biological pollution from the water over time. Human beings are, however, overloading many water bodies to the point where there is too much waste for the natural purification process to be effective.
The most dangerous form of water pollution results from the dumping of poisonous chemical wastes into the lakes and rivers. These wastes are often colourless, odourless, and tasteless in the water but they can be deadly! What makes things worse is that the water bodies where these chemicals are dumped are often the source of drinking water for millions
of people.
Some industries have been dumping toxic chemicals into the water supplies for years. The Great Lakes in North America have been referred to as a “chemical soup” because of the number of chemicals dumped into them. In fact, 42 “toxic hot spots” have been identified in the Great Lakes where there are particular problems with the accumulation of toxic chemicals. Thirty two percent of Canadians and thirteen percent of Americans live in the Great Lakes basin. These 40 million people are exposed to hundreds of potentially dangerous chemicals produced by industries. Many of these chemicals have been found in the bodies of fish and gulls that live in and around the Great Lakes. This proves that the chemicals are in the food chain.
The quality of the water is also threatened by pesticides(杀虫剂) used on farms. These chemicals, which protect the food supply from animal pests, disease, and weeds, are washed from farmers' fields into rivers and lakes.
There is, however, some good news. Government studies indicate that the levels of many contaminants in the Great Lakes have been declining since the 1970s. Restrictions on the manufacture and use of mercury, many pesticides, and PCBs have resulted in reduced contaminant levels in fish.
It is a long way to fight against water pollution. Much has to be done to protect our living space.

When was the last time you had fun with your parents? Your parents are all busy during working days; during the weekends,
you may want to hang out with them but they may have to work extra hours.
This is not uncommon. In China, both of the parents have their jobs. Most of the parents try their best to offer their children comfortable circumstances, but they seldom have time to stay with their children. A recent survey done in the US found that more than half of American parents spend less than three hours having fun with their children each week.
As the Daily Mail noted: Families are spending little quality time creating bonds and precious memories together during the week because of the demands of modern life.

Suggested version:
Nowadays, it is not uncommon that parents spend little time accompanying their children, which may result from the demands of modern life and some other reasons.
There are many factors accounting for this phenomenon. First, in contemporary society parents are facing more stress from living and work than before, so they have to spend most of their time making money. In addition, parents today are more easily distracted by various electronic products when keeping their children company.
Take my own experience for example. Once upon a time, I got into trouble in my studies. It was my parents’ company and comfort that had a great effect on my regaining self-confidence. Plain and peaceful as it was, this experience left an unforgettable impression on me, which is of great significance to my growth.
To conclude, it’s vital for parents to spend more time with their children. However busy parents are, they should afford their time to accompany their children.(158)

Many volunteers in the Manchester Social Services have taken a week’s leave for the Christmas holidays, so the Manchester City Rest Centers were short of staff. Christmas Day was therefore my first day of nursing.

W: And here I am at the city stadium and the sun is shining. And eventually the players are coming onto the play field. As I was saying earlier there were such terrible traffic jams in the city today that the match is starting late. Most of the football fans have been waiting patiently in their seats since two o’clock but now as the players come out they’re cheering happily. And the whistle goes. Rossi has the ball and is running steadily down the field but, oh, no, the game has hardly started ---- only two minutes have gone ---- and he’s fallen heavily on the ground. Luckily he was not injured, but Hank has the ball
instead. Now Parker is running quickly towards the goal to take the ball from Hank. He is playing well. It’s often Parker who shoots that important goal. And he has, he’s scored! And the crowd is shouting really loudly so it’s difficult to make myself heard. That was a wonderful goal by him.
