But getting older is not all bad for many people. Mounting evidence suggests aging may be a key to happiness. There is conflicting research on the subject, however, and experts say it may all boil down to this: Attitude is everything.Older adults tend to be more optimistic and have a more positive outlook on life than their younger opposites who are under stress. The big question is why seniors are the happier. A recent study suggests one reason: Older adults remember the past through happy memories. Aging can bring more cheer as people become more comfortable with themselves and their roles in society. The older adults said they were enjoying more time with their family，spending more time on hobbies and having greater financial security and did not have to work.But others are doubtful about the link between happiness and growing older.“The notion that those in old age are the happiest is misleading，” said Richard Easterlin, a professor of economics at the University of Southern California. “It is based on comparing people of different ages who are the same in terms of income, health, family life，” Easterlin added.“When you take account of the fact that older people have lower income than the younger, are less healthy, and are more likely to be living alone, then you will find it hard to accept that they are happier.”In fact, scientists have found that as people age，their health declines and social networks disappear as their friends die，which can make the elderly less happy.Even if one does give in to age's dark side，health and happiness don't always go hand-in-hand. It's all about attitude. Research by the University of Chicago suggests that attitude about life and happiness is partly shaped by the era in which a person was born.It turns out that individuals who adapt the best to changes also have the highest expected levels of happiness.Despite the conflicting findings about aging and happiness，the good news is that there doesn't appear to be a limit to how much happiness one can achieve in one's life.“Most people desire happiness，” Easterlin said.“To my knowledge, no one has identified a limit to attainable happiness.”【语篇解读】　本文主要讲述了幸福和变老以及态度之间的关系。12．What does the last paragraph mainly tell us?A．The key factor to older adults' happiness.B．There is a conflict between aging and happiness.C．No one can define the limit to happiness.D．The relationship between health and happiness.【解析】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段的第一句“Despite the conflicting findings about aging and happiness, the good news is that there doesn't appear to be a limit to how much happiness one can achieve in one's life”和本段的整体内容可推知，幸福并没有限度，故选C。【答案】 C13．Why are some seniors happier according to some experts?A．They focus on what makes them feel good.B．They have their own circle of friends.C．They can enjoy social welfare services.D．They have better income after retirement.【解析】 细节理解题。根据第二段的整体内容可推知，老年人更加幸福是因为他们可以关注自己喜欢的事情，故选A。【答案】 A14．What can we learn from the passage?A．People of the same age have the same sense of happiness.B．Attitude may play a very important role in happiness.C．People who adapt the best to changes are more likely to be unhappy.D．Older adults who have more valuable life experiences are more optimistic.【解析】 细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“There is conflicting research on the subject, however, and experts say it may all boil down to this: Attitude is everything”可知，幸福的关键还在于态度，故选B。【答案】 B15．What's the topic discussed in the passage?A．Whether aging or attitude brings happiness.B．Why seniors adapt the best to changes in society.C．What the limit to an elder person's happiness is.D．How older people feel compared with younger people.【解析】 主旨大意题。根据第一段开篇点题并结合最后一段的首尾呼应可推知，本文主要讨论的是变老和态度究竟哪一个能让人感觉幸福，故选A。【答案】 A第二节　阅读七选五(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)  (2018·昆明市高三复习教学质量检测)Failing an exam can make someone feel really bad about themselves.
