In fact, at The Happiness Institute in Australia, a couple of hundred dollars may be enough. The institute opened its door last year, and, since then, men and women of all ages have been paying A$200 an hour (US$140) for lessons on how to feel great. “You can actually increase your happiness levels. That’s what we teach, ” said Timothy Sharp, founder of the institute. Experts say that only about 15 percent of happiness es from ine, assets and other financial factors. As much as 85 percent es from things such as attitude, life control and relationships. Most of us are significantly better off financially than our parents and grandparents, but happiness levels haven’t changed to reflect that. Studies show that once the basic needs of shelter and food are met, additional wealth adds very little to happiness. Many decades ago, the“sage of Baltimore, Maryland”, editor HL Mencken, defined wealth as earning US$100 more than your “wife’s sister’s husband. ”Behavioral economists now say part of the reason we are richer but not happier is because we pare ourselves to people better off materially. “The argument is that if you want to be happy there’s a very simple thing you can do: pare yourself to people who are less well off than you—poorer, smaller house and car, ” said Sharp. The Happiness Institute aims to show you how to overe these unhappiness factors by focusing on“more than just your bank account. ”“If I pare myself to Bill Gates then I’m always going to be down, ” said Sharp. A better thing to pare with, he said, might be Kerry Packer, Australia’s richest person who has had a kidney transplant and heart surgery in recent years. 1. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? A. You can increase your happiness levels by attending the classes at the Happiness Institute. B. Most of us are happier than our parents or grandparents since we earn more. C. Earning US$100 more than your wife’s sister’s husband if you want to be happy. D. Bill Gates and Kerry Packer are referred to as examples of those who are extremely rich but obviously unhappy. 2. The underlined phrase has the same meaning as the word_____. A. healthy B. unhealthyC. free D. wealthy3. The author wrote the passage to tell us______. A. happiness is everythingB. wealth is the foundation of happinessC. to have fun at the Happiness InstituteD. money doesn’t always mean happiness(B)One-hundred-and-seventh birthdays aren’t usually celebrated for authors who aren’t alive anymore. But Theodor Seuss Geisel—better known as the children’s books author Dr. Seuss—who came into the world on 2 March, 1904, was an unusual man. Like generations of children I was raised on his wonderful stories. But when I now read them to my children it’s not just the childhood memories I enjoy. His writing is brilliant and imaginative and flows with a self-confidence as sure as the words of a Shakespeare poem. Readers ride his characteristic rhythm with an effortless joy that cannot be matched by any other modern writer: You have brains in your headYou have feet in your shoesYou can steer yourself any direction you chooseAnd will you succeed? Yes indeed, yes indeed! Ninety-eight and three-quarters percent guaranteed. Seuss’s brilliant cartoons and clever words make his books a delight for adults but they appeal most to children of course. His stories teach kids moral lessons but in indirect and entertaining ways. The first Seuss book I was given was The Lorax, written just as the 60s were being the 70s. Seuss was ahead of his time, and in this book the dawn of concern for environmental problems are shown as the Lorax “who speaks for the trees” battles against an evil businessman who wants to destroy the forest and make goods “which everyone needs”. It’s not only a warning of the heavy price of environmental destruction, written well before most people had thought to worry, but it’s also a smart analysis of consumer societies: “Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It’s not. ” This is of course a moral message, but not of the kind designed to persuade the youngsters into behavior that adults want. I could go on, but hey, it’s a birthday, and I’m sure you folks have some good toasts to raise for the party. . . 4. What’s the purpose of this passage? A. To introduce Dr. Seuss’s life. B. To analyse Dr. Seuss’s books. C. To describe Dr. Seuss’s writing style. D. To celebrate Dr. Seuss’s achievements. 5. Why does the author include Dr. Seuss’s poem? A. To encourage readers to use their brains and choose their own way. B. To give readers a sample of Seuss’s story The Lorax. C. To provide readers with an example of Seuss’s writing style. D. To explain how relevant Seuss’s stories remain today. 6. Why do adults also enjoy Seuss’s books? A. His words and pictures are imaginative enough to be enjoyed by all. B. His books give children obvious moral messages to learn from. C. He writes about adult topics in a way that is understandable to children. D. He was the first person to write about the environment. 7. Which of the following is true about Seuss? A. Many of the issues he discussed attracted greater concern in later years. B. He is widely considered as the twentieth-century Shakespeare. C. His books are more popular now than when they were first published. D. Most readers thought his ideas were difficult to understand. 答案解析Ⅰ. 1. assistant 2. adapted 3. matured 4. severe 5. allocated 6. acplish 7. vivid 8. surrounded 9. adequate 10. admirableⅡ. 1.【解析】选D。
