Ⅱ.阅读理解
A
London has become a cycle friendly zone after the launch of a new bike hire scheme. It has been designed to encourage more people to cycle in and around central London.
So how does it work？First you have to sign up to the scheme to be sent a key. The key will unlock one of the bikes，which are kept at docking stations in and around central London. You have to pay an access fee for the key and then you pay as you go, for the length of time you use the bike.
Transport for London，which runs the scheme，are hoping to have 6,000 bikes and 400 docking stations in place by the end of the year. The new hire system is hoping to ease congestion(拥挤)in London and is expected to create up to 40,000 extra cycle trips a day into the city centre. London Mayor Boris Johnston launched the scheme and said London had been “filled with thousands of gleaming machines that will transform the look and feel of our streets and become as commonplace on our roads as black cabs and red buses”．
However，there have been a few problems since the scheme was launched last Friday. On the first day some people found they couldn't dock their bikes properly and their usage of the bikes had not registered. Transport for London did admit they had been expecting a few “teething problems” and have said they wouldn't charge for the first day as a “gesture of goodwill”. Some other people have criticized the lack of docking stations and locks for the bikes as well as the price it costs to hire the bicycles.
Despite the comments，the greenthinking London Mayor still seems very positive about things，saying，“My campaign for the capital to become the greatest big cycling city in the world has taken a big pedalpowered push forwards.”
11．London Mayor Boris Johnston launched the new bike scheme in order to ________.

d. sign up as a member to get a key
A．bdca

D．dbca
13．All the following are the problems of the scheme EXCEPT________.
A．the high cost to hire a bike

When we offer our best wishes to others, more often than not, we say: “May you be happy every day”. But it's easier said than done to stay happy all the time. There are always things that stand in its way.
The first, perhaps the biggest is genetics. Some scientists say that some people are naturally happier than others. Besides, major life events as well as social and economic factors can also stand in the way of happiness, such as losing your job or a family member. Then, there is health affecting your happiness. So, is it possible that people can find lasting happiness with so many factors preventing them?
Positive psychologists(心理学家)believe it's possible for people to stay happy for long periods, although it cannot be lasting. Martin Seligman at University of Pennsylvania argues that daytoday happiness comes from two things: pleasures and satisfactions. Pleasures are rich experiences that simply make us feel good things like eating cake or drinking wine. While pleasures can be quite satisfying, the enjoyment we get from them is shortlived.
Satisfactions are activities that we like to do and we give all we have to them. They are often challenging, and we have to draw_on personal skills and strengths to perform them. For some people, satisfactions come with work. Doctors, for example, often become so concentrated in an operation that hours pass without them noticing the time. For others, it may be hobbies like gardening, playing tennis or stamp collecting. These satisfactory activities affect the mood in a way that appears to be lasting.
Too often, people choose pleasures over satisfactions because they are easier and the effects are more immediate. Though pleasures may work for a while, there are bad effects. Pleasurable activities become less enjoyable if overused. Always choosing pleasures over satisfactions can also prevent people from developing their personal strengths, which, if they're not put to work, will die.
15．How many aspects are mentioned that affect one's staying happy?
A．Two.
B．Three.
C．Four.
D．Five.
16．Compared with pleasures, satisfactions ________.
A．have immediate effect and work quickly
B．are more meaningful and last longer
C．are more easily ignored by people
D．depend mostly on one's genetics
17．The underlined phrase “draw on” means ________.
A．learn
B．find
C．improve
D．use
18．What is the best title for the passage?
A．How to Be a Happier Person?
B．It's Impossible to Stay Happy Long.
C．Pleasures Are Different From Satisfactions.
D．The Factors That Affect Our Happiness.
