5.(6分)Here are some of the smartest animals in the world.
Pigs
Pigs are actually very smart animals.Pigs are one of the smartest animals if they are given a choice.If you provide them with enough space,they will make sure they separate their dining area from their living space.Studies have also shown that they can actually be good at video games.To get food,they will follow other pigs and then steal it from right under their noses.The victimized(受害的)pigs will then come out wiser from this.They will change their behavior next time to prevent other pigs from stealing from them.
Crows
They are smart and creative,with the highest IQ among all birds.Crows have been known to throw nuts and shells on a road so that cars will drive over and open them.They also have the ability to make knives to cut leaves and grass.
Elephants
They have extremely large brains,even bigger than humans'.They bury(埋葬)their dead families and friends properly,the only other animal to do this besides humans.They also know which leaves are medicinal and will eat specific plants depending on the sickness they are feeling.They also have the ability to recognize themselves in the mirror.
Bottlenose Dolphins

6.(8分)Rainy days don't have to get you down,a happiness expert has claimed.
Paul Dolan,Professor of Behavioral Science at the London School of Economics,said that people only feel miserable in bad weather because they think about it too much.Studies have shown that people who live in warm,sunny climates are no happier than those in chilly,wet climates,he said.
So the British talking about the weather may be making us gloomier(沮丧的)than the weather itself.
He said: "A study was done that measured the happiness levels of people in California compared to the North West."
"They expected that people in California would be happier because it is sunnier,but they found that levels of happiness were exactly the same."
"If it is sunny every day you get used to it and the sunshine doesn't make you any happier."
"Most of the time the weather doesn't affect our well﹣being at all.But when we think about it,and think that it does,that's when we get miserable."
In his new book,Happiness By Design,Dolan argues that we can think ourselves happy by taking our attention away from what makes us sad.
"Most of our anxieties come from what might be," he argues. "If you want to be happier,pay attention to the things that make you feel good."
He also claimed that a problem shared was not always a problem halved(减半).He claimed that humans are actually very good at being able to get over tragedy and loss.
Professor Dolan also admitted for the first time that he had a stammer(口吃),which had made his early life miserable.He claimed it only got better when he learned not to pay attention to his speech problem.
"Things are never as bad as you imagine them being," he said.
(1)What has the research found?
A.British people don't like to chat about the weather.
B.Rainy days have no effect on people's mood.
C.People tend to be happy when the sun is shining.
D.Cold days make people feel less happy.
(2)What does the underlined word "miserable" in the second paragraph mean?
A.Good.
B.Unhappy.
C.Cheerful.
D.Confident.
(3)What is Dolan's suggestion for being happy?
A.Don't think too much about yourself.
B.Don't focus on what makes you sad.
C.Avoid comparing yourself with others.
D.Avoid doing many miserable things.
(4)What do we know about professor Dolan?
A.Once,he couldn't speak fluently.
B.Once,he didn't want to share his problems with others.
C.He has a great ability to get over bad things.
D.He has written many books about happiness.
第二节阅读填空 阅读短文及文后选项,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
7.(5分)A young prince had just recently become King. (1) So he called all the wise men from his country and ordered them to look for books for him to read and learn from.
Five years passed quickly.The wise men returned with5,000 books full of wisdom(智慧). (2) So he ordered the wise men to condense(简缩)the books and bring them back to him.Another five years passed.(3) Five more years passed.The wise men brought back 50 books but the king still felt there were too many books.

Waiting for wisdom to come to you is just a way of being lazy.Only if we set out to find wisdom can we make a difference.

6.(8分)Rainy days don't have to get you down,a happiness expert has claimed.
Paul Dolan,Professor of Behavioral Science at the London School of Economics,said that people only feel miserable in bad weather because they think about it too much.Studies have shown that people who live in warm,sunny climates are no happier than those in chilly,wet climates,he said.
So the British talking about the weather may be making us gloomier(沮丧的)than the weather itself.
He said: "A study was done that measured the happiness levels of people in California compared to the North West."
"They expected that people in California would be happier because it is sunnier,but they found that levels of happiness were exactly the same."
"If it is sunny every day you get used to it and the sunshine doesn't make you any happier."
"Most of the time the weather doesn't affect our well﹣being at all.But when we think about it,and think that it does,that's when we get miserable."
In his new book,Happiness By Design,Dolan argues that we can think ourselves happy by taking our attention away from what makes us sad.
"Most of our anxieties come from what might be," he argues. "If you want to be happier,pay attention to the things that make you feel good."
He also claimed that a problem shared was not always a problem halved(减半).He claimed that humans are actually very good at being able to get over tragedy and loss.
Professor Dolan also admitted for the first time that he had a stammer(口吃),which had made his early life miserable.He claimed it only got better when he learned not to pay attention to his speech problem.
"Things are never as bad as you imagine them being," he said.
(1)What has the research found? B
A.British people don't like to chat about the weather.
B.Rainy days have no effect on people's mood.
C.People tend to be happy when the sun is shining.
D.Cold days make people feel less happy.
(2)What does the underlined word "miserable" in the second paragraph mean? B
A.Good.
B.Unhappy.
C.Cheerful.
D.Confident.
(3)What is Dolan's suggestion for being happy? B
A.Don't think too much about yourself.
B.Don't focus on what makes you sad.
C.Avoid comparing yourself with others.
D.Avoid doing many miserable things.
(4)What do we know about professor Dolan? A
A.Once,he couldn't speak fluently.
B.Once,he didn't want to share his problems with others.
C.He has a great ability to get over bad things.
D.He has written many books about happiness.
【分析】本文主要告诉我们,要想快乐,应该专注那些让你感觉良好的事情。
【解答】(1)细节推理题。根据Rainy days don't have to get you down,a happiness expert has claimed.(一位幸福专家声称,雨天不一定会让你沮丧。)可知,雨天对人们的心情应该没有什么影响。故选B。
(2)词义猜测题。根据Paul Dolan,Professor of Behavioral Science at the London School of Economics,said that people only feel miserable in bad weather because they think about it too much.(伦敦经济学院行为科学教授Paul Dolan表示,人们只有在恶劣天气下才会感到﹣﹣,因为他们想得太多了。)可知,在恶劣天气下人们想得太多应该会不开心。故推测"miserable"应该是"痛苦的,不开心的"意思,故选B。
(3)细节理解题。根据Dolan argues that we can think ourselves happy by taking our attention away from what makes us sad.(Dolan认为,我们可以把注意力从让我们悲伤的事情上移开,从而认为自己是幸福的。)可知,Dolan建议不要把注意力放在让你悲伤的事情上。故选B。
(4)推理判断题。根据Professor Dolan also admitted for the first time that he had a stammer(口吃),which had made his early life miserable.(Dolan教授也第一次承认自己口吃,这让他早年的生活很悲惨。)可知,Dolan教授从前说话不流利。故选A。
