  由第四段开头的my short hair可知,作者剪了一个很“短(short)”的发型。

  Ⅱ.阅读理解

  When asked about happiness, we usually think of something extraordinary, an absolute delight, which seems to get rarer the older we get.

  For kids, happiness has a magical quality. Their delight at winning a race or getting a new bike is unreserved (毫不掩饰的).

  In the teenage years the concept of happiness changes. Suddenly it’s conditional on such things as excitement, love and popularity. I can still recall the excitement of being invited to dance with the most attractive boy at the school party.

  In adulthood the things that bring deep joy — love, marriage, birth — also bring responsibility and the risk of loss. For adults, happiness is complicated (复杂的).

  My definition for happiness is “the capacity for enjoyment”. The more we can enjoy what we have, the happier we are. It’s easy to overlook the pleasure we get from the company of friends, the freedom to live where we please, and even good health.

  I experienced my little moments of pleasure yesterday. First I was overjoyed when I shut the last lunch-box and had the house to myself. Then I spent an uninterrupted morning writing, which I love. When the kids and my husband came home, I enjoyed their noise after the quiet of the day.

  Psychologists tell us that to be happy we need a mix of enjoyable leisure time and satisfying work. I don’t think that my grandmother, who raised 14 children, had much of either. She did have a network of close friends and family, and maybe this is what satisfied her.

  We, however, with so many choices and such pressure to succeed in every area, have turned happiness into one more thing we’ve got to have. We’re so self-conscious about our “right” to it that it’s making us miserable. So we chase it and equal it with wealth and success, without noticing that the people who have those things aren’t necessarily happier.

  Happiness isn’t about what happens to us — it’s about how we see what happens to us. It’s the skillful way of finding a positive for every negative. It’s not wishing for what we don’t have, but enjoying what we do possess.

  1. As people grow older, they________.

  A. feel it harder to experience happiness

  B. associate their happiness less with others

  C. will take fewer risks in pursuing happiness

  D. tend to believe responsibility means happiness

  2. What can we learn about the author from Paragraphs 5 and 6?

  A. She cares little about her own health.

  B. She enjoys the freedom of traveling.

  C. She is easily pleased by things in daily life.

  D. She prefers getting pleasure from housework.

  3. What can be informed from Paragraph 7?

  A. Psychologists think satisfying work is key to happiness.

  B. Psychologists’ opinion is well proved by Grandma’ case.

  C. Grandma often found time for social gatherings.

  D. Grandma’s happiness came from modest expectations of life.

  4. People who equal happiness with wealth and success ________.

  A. consider pressure something blocking their way

  B. stress their right to happiness too much

  C. are at a loss to make correct choices

  D. are more likely to be happy

  5. What can be concluded from the passage?

  A. Happiness lies between the positive and the negative.

  B. Each man is the master of his own fate.

  C. Success leads to happiness.

  D. Happy is he who is content.

  答案与解析

  【文章大意】

  本文为议论文。题材为个人情感与人际关系。文章介绍了随着我们年龄的增加和对成功追求压力的加大,我们逐渐忽略了身边快乐的存在。在生活中容易满足的人会更快乐。

  1. 答案

  A

  解析

  细节理解题。由第一段的..., which seems to get rarer the older we get.可知,我们年龄越大,快乐似乎就会越少。故选A项。

  2. 答案

  C

  解析

  推理判断题。第五段主要讲了作者对快乐的理解:我们越享受我们所拥有的,我们就会越快乐。第六段主要讲了作者的一次经历,孩子和丈夫的吵闹声也让作者感受到了快乐。所以从这两段我们可以得知,作者很容易从日常生活中感到快乐。故选C项。

  3. 答案

  D

  解析

  推理判断题。本段心理学家认为快乐的来源是有可以享受的休闲时间和令人满意的工作。而作者的奶奶对于心理学家认为的快乐来源都没有,但是有自己的朋友和亲人,这或许是让奶奶满意也是快乐的事情。故选D项(奶奶的快乐来自于对生活适度的期盼)。

  4. 答案

  B

  解析

  推理判断题。第八段告诉我们:在每个领域我们有太多的选择和追求成功的压力,我们已经把快乐变成了另外一种东西,甚至把它等同于财富和成功,但是我们没有注意到其实拥有财富和成功的人不一定更快乐。故选B项。

  5. 答案

  D

  解析

  推理判断题。本篇文章的中心段是最后一段。在最后一段作者指出,我们的快乐不是去期望我们没有得到的东西,而是要享受我们所拥有的东西。故选D项。

  For those who are tired of doing the laundry, Samsung has found an answer: a washing machine that can tell you when your laundry is done via a smart phone app (application).

  Strange though it may seem 棑my wife already does that?was a common response among attendees viewing the device when it was introduced at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) this week ?Samsung is just one of many appliance makers racing to install (六段主安装) a large number of Internet-connected features in machines in an effort to make them “smart”.

  Last year, it was a refrigerator that tweeted(鸣叫). This year, it’s Wi-Fi-enabled laundry machines and fridges that can tell you when your groceries are going bad.

  The washers and dryers, available starting in the spring, connect to any smart phone through a downloadable application. The phone can then be used as a remote control, so the machines can be turned on and off while their owner is at work or on the bus.

  Samsung says it’s not just something new — the app connection actually has some practical uses.

  ?If you started to dry clothes in the morning and forgot to take them out, you can go to your phone and restart your dryer for the time when you come home, so your clothes are refreshed and ready to go,” said spokesperson Amy Schmidt.

  The company also says that with electricity rate (电价) varying depending on the time of day, more control over when the machines are used can help save money.

  Perhaps, but what they will probably really accomplish is what all good technologies do — enable laziness. Rather than getting up to check on whether the laundry is done, users will instead monitor it on their phones while watching TV.

  1. What can be inferred from the common response of the attendees at the CES?

  A. The machine will be a big success.

  B. Their wives like doing the laundry.

  C. The machine is unrelated to their life.

  D. This kind of technology is familiar to them.

  2. What can we learn about the new laundry machines?

  A. They can tell you when your clothes need washing.

  B. They can be controlled with a smart phone.

  C. They are difficult to operate.

  D. They are sold at a low price.

  3. We can conclude form Samsung’s statements that ________.

  A. the app connection makes life easier

  B. it is better to dry clothes in the morning

  C. smart phones can shorten the drying time

  D. we should refresh clothes back at home

  4. What is the main idea of the last paragraph?

  A. The laundry should be frequently checked.

  B. Lazy people like using such machines.

  C. Good technologies also cause problems.

  D. Television may help do the laundry.

  答案与解析

  【文章大意】

  本文属于科普知识类。对于那些讨厌洗衣服的人来说,三星为他们找到了解决办法:一种智能洗衣机可以通过智能手机来控制,使得生活更加便利,但是好的技术同样会带来问题。

  1. 答案

  D

  解析

  推理判断题。第二段提到,出席产品展销会的人员说my wife already does that,这是他们对新型智能洗衣机的普遍反应。由此可知,他们的妻子都非常熟悉智能洗衣机的操作流程,进而可知他们对这种技术很熟悉,故选D项。

  2. 答案

  B

  解析

  细节理解题。根据第一段... when your laundry is done via a smart phone app(application).可得出答案为B项。

  3. 答案

  A

  解析

  推理判断题。文章第六段提到,如果你早晨甩干的衣服忘记拿出来了,你可以拿出手机重启烘干机,这样你的衣服就焕然一新了。由此可以推断出这种新型洗衣机给生活带来了便利。

  4. 答案

  C

  解析

  段落大意题。由文章最后一段... enable laziness. Rather than ... users will instead monitor it on their phones while watching TV.可知,先进的技术同样会带来问题,故选C项。

  第1处:want后加to。此处表示“我想在你们公司申请一个职位。”want to do sth. 结构中,不定式作宾语。

  第2处:graduate改为graduated。三年前毕业,应用一般过去时。

  第3处:a改为an。engineer的第一个音素为元音,冠词应用an。

  第4处:Germany改为German。Germany n. 德国;German adj. 德国的,德国人的,德语的; n. 德国人,德语。

  第5处:something改为everything/anything。此处为代词的误用。此处表示“我所做的一切或我所做的的任何事情”,应用everything I do或anything I do。

  第6处:easily改为easy。此处应用形容词作表语。

  第7处:but改为and。此处的逻辑关系为“顺承”,而非“转折”。

  第8处:去掉try后的out。try out“试用;试验;选拔;试行”;try one’s best“竭尽全力”,此处out多余。

  第9处:at改为for。be fit for为固定搭配,意为“适合于”。

  第10处:be改为being。look forward to中的to为介词,其后应该用V-ing形式作宾语。
