第三部分 阅读理解(共两节,满分40分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
As a professor of business and government policy, I’ve long been interested in the
pursuit of happiness as a national concept. According to surveys of thousands of
people across the land, happy people are keys to making our nation healthy and strong.Happiness, in other words, is important for America. So when I came across data a
couple of years ago saying that certain Americans were living in a manner that contri-buted to happiness-while others were not-I jumped on it.
I wanted to know which personal lifestyles and public policies would make us the happiest nation possible. I also wanted to know which of my own values, learned
during my childhood and practiced during my career as a university professor, were
the most concerned with happiness. First, just what is happiness?
Most researchers
agree that it involves an assessment of the good and bad in our lives. It’s the
emotional balance sheet we keep that allows us to say honestly whether we’re living a happy life, in spite of bad things now and then.
You might guess that Americans are getting happier all the time. After all, many are getting richer, and this should make them better able and equipped to follow their dreams. On the other hand, there’s a lot of talk about the good old days, when kids
could play outside without any worry about being kidnapped. And there’s a great
deal of stress in this country right now, due to financial concerns, negative workplace
environments, and health problems, among other pressing issues.
But average happiness levels in America have stayed largely constant for many
years. In 1972, 30 percent of the population said they were very happy with their lives. In 1982, 31 percent said so, and in 2006, 31 percent said so as well. The percentage
saying they were not too happy was generally stopping over at around 13 percent.
The factors that add up to a happy life for most people are not what we typically hear about. However, the key to happiness, and the difference between happy and
unhappy Americans, is a life that reflects values and practices like faith, hard work,
marriage, charity, and freedom.
56.According to the text what is happiness?
A.Our values being accepted by society.
B.The balance of our feelings in any situation.
C.The great material wealth we possess.
D.The contributions we have made for society.
57.From the text we can learn that .
A.the American people are far happier than before
B.all the American people can realize their dreams in life
C.American public security used to be better than now
D.people felt more stressed in the past
58.The underlined word in the fourth paragraph means .
A.growing B.declining C.unchanged D.terrible
59.What will be talked about in the next part of the passage?
A.Winning the lottery can make a person happier.
B.Being offered a good job is the reason for happiness.
C.All kinds of reasons for not being happy.
D.Detailing values and practices like faith, hard work.

I will tell you the truth about plastic bagsthe positive and the negative sides and
provide a solution to this problem. Whether it is a shopping bag, a food bag or a trash bag, they are all made of plastic bags. Grocery store owners are very generous in
using plastic bags. They place the fruit in one bag and drop the box of milk in another. Ever wonder why?
The positive side of plastic bags
Grocery stores, shopping centres, and restaurants are not thrifty in using and
givingout plastic bags because they cost no more than a cent each, while a paper bag
costsfour cents. Plastic bags are produced so cheaply and massively(大量地)that they are used by 80% of store owners. In addition, they are light and very easy to carry and store. The production of plastic bags has increased greatly over the last 20
years and producers of plastic bags are making large profits. However, the negative
side of plastic bags is becoming well-known. More people are now getting worried
that the earth is becoming a victim of the plastic bag success story.
The negative side of plastic bags
While production and consumption(消费)of plastic bags is good for business,it is
not so for our Mother Earth. They have resulted in an increase in the amount of litter found floating in water or in
