Each passage is followed by five questions or incomplete statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A、B、C and D. You should decide on the best
22、choice and write the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1A happy life and a meaningful life are not the same. Leading a happy life is associated with being a “taker”, while leading a meaningful life corresponding with being a “giver”.Happiness is about feeling good and getting what we
23、want. People who are happy tend to think that life is easy. They are in good physical health and able to buy the things that they need often associated with selfish behavior. Animals have needs and desires and they can feel happy too. What sets human beings apart from animals is not the pursuit of h
24、appiness, but the pursuit of meaning, which is unique to humans.We can often find meaning in helping others or making a sacrifice(牺牲) for a “greater good”. Meaning often comes at the expense of happiness. When people have invested themselves in something bigger than themselves, they worry more and h
25、igher levels of stress and anxiety in their lives than happy people. Volunteering(做义工) in rural schools, for example, is meaningful but also involves hardship.Happiness, like any emotion, is felt in the here and now-it eventually fades away. However, meaning is enduring. It connects the past to the
26、future.46. What is the main idea of the passage? A. A happy life is basically different from a meaningful life. B. Leading a happy life is connected with being a “taker”. C. Happiness is about feeling good and getting what we want. D. Meaning connects the past to the present to the future.47. Paragr

29、r a “greater good” brings us happiness50. The passage is organized by_. A. giving examples B. making contrasts C. defining D. classifyingPassage 2Our traditional belief has it that morning larks are most likely to be healthy, wealthy and wise. But those who are early to bed and early to rise do not
30、always have the upper hand（占上风）.Researchers have revealed that night owls（夜猫子）are generally brighter and wealthier than those able to get up early in the morning.Experts examined the habits of 1,000 youngsters to determine whether they liked to stay up late and sleep in later in the morning, or pref
31、erred to go to bed early. School performance and inductive（归纳的）reasoning were measured and academic（学业的）grades in the major subjects were also taken into consideration.The results show that evening types score higher than morning types on inductive reasoning, which has been shown to be a good estima
32、te of general intelligence and academic performance. The night owls also have a greater capacity to think conceptually（概念性地）and analyze. Such abilities have been linked to creative thinking, better jobs and higher incomes.Morning larks, however, often get better exam results in school, possibly beca
33、use lessons are held at the wrong time of day for night owls.51. The underlined expression “morning larks” in Paragraph 1 refers to _.

36、ctive reasoning C. morning larks are more likely to get better jobs D. morning larks are more likely to get higher incomes55. Morning larks often score higher in exams, possibly because _.

37、alyze D. the arrangement of lessons fits their body clocksPassage 3While drunken driving may be decreasing, traffic safety experts remain troubled how to cope with another alcohol-related problem: drunken pedestrians（行人）. Studies have shown that pedestrians injured and killed by cars are often extre
38、mely drunk.Some types of pedestrian accidents have been decreasing in the U.S., especially those involving children, but the number of drunken adult pedestrians killed in traffic has remained relatively constant at 2,500 a year. The total number of pedestrians killed annually in traffic accidents is
39、 at least 7,000 or one of every seven highway deaths.Students have revealed some of the causes, including a lack of adult supervision（监督）for children, long delays in traffic signals that encourage jaywalking（无视交通规则任意行走），less attention paid to pedestrian accidents in the past, and few methods to regu
40、late walking habits. However, the most challenging problem, according to some experts, is alcohol-related.
