It was time for Mr.Rocco to shut up the shop when I hurried into the flower shop. "Now,what is it you want？" Mr.Rocco turned to me. "I want the most beautiful flower you have." I replied. "And just how much do you have to pay for this most beautiful flower？" I held out a wet hand showing a quarter and dime.He nodded,and then showed me a plant on the counter. "I can give you this one for 35 cents, " he said. "Aw,gee, " I protested, "it looks like a weed （草）!" About 18 inches high,the plant was in a small pot covered with faded red paper. "Now trust me,boy --- I promise that tomorrow morning when you get up,you will find your most beautiful flower, " said Mr.Rocco.I knew him to be a good honest man,so I agreed to take it.
It was almost midnight when I arrived home.Mum was seriously sick and using the front bedroom.I looked in to see if she was asleep,and then quietly tiptoed in and set the plant on the table beside her bed.I wanted her to be surprised when she woke on Mother's Day.
The next morning,I dressed and hurried downstairs.The sun was shining through the kitchen window as I looked into Mum's room and glanced over at the table where the plant was.My goodness!There were three big yellow trumpet shaped blooms.It was just like Mr.Rocco said --- the most beautiful flower I ever saw!When I looked at Mum,she was smiling as tears streamed down her cheeks.She held out her hand for me to come near,then pulled me close and hugged me till it hurt.Then,remembering her contagious condition and that she wasn't supposed to touch me,she quickly let me go.
My dear mum died the next night.The moment she hugged me turned out to be the most wonderful moment of my life.Not only had that beautiful plant helped show just how much I loved her,but I'd always know how much she loved me.

Like many people，in terms of socializing，I prioritize making time for my closest friends and family.When it comes to reaching out to people I don't know as well I often find myself reluctant to engage.This could be a big mistake，though，according to a new study.Having different types of social interactions seems to be central to our happiness — something many of us may think little of.
In a series of surveys，researchers looked at how having a socially diverse network related to people's well-being.In one survey，578 Americans reported on what activities they had been engaged in，with whom and for how long over the past 24 hours，while also saying how happy with life they were.The researchers found that people with more diverse social networks were happier and more satisfied with life than those with less diverse networks — regardless of how much time they had spent socializing overall.
"The more you can broaden your social circle and reach out to people you talk to less frequently — like an acquaintance，a friend，a coworker，or even a stranger — the more it could have positive benefits for your well-being，" said the lead researcher Hanne Collins of Harvard Business School.
To further test this idea，she and her colleagues looked at large data sets from the American Time Use Survey and the World Health Organization's Study on Global Aging and Adult Health.In both cases，they found that when people had a broader range of social interactions，they experienced greater happiness and well-being.
Then Collins and her colleagues did another analysis，using data from a mobile app that 21，644 French-speaking people used to report on their daily social activities and happiness.There，they found that when someone experienced greater-than-average social diversity one week，they were happier that week and the week after.
Why is that？It could be that being with different people contributes to different kinds of emotions，which may be a driving force in our happiness，says Collins.Alternatively，it could be that having a more diverse network allows you to get various social supports when you need it.Whatever the case，Collins hopes her research will inspire people to expand their social networks when they can.
26. What does the author use as an introduction to the passage？
A. A personal communication skill.
B. A social trend against one's will.
C. A common social phenomenon.
D. A culture many people neglect.
27. What do we know about the study？
A. Its results were different from culture to culture.
B. Different results were obtained from the researchers' three surveys.
C. The researchers collected large amounts of data from different platforms.
D. It focused on the impact of a more diverse social network on life satisfaction.
28. What can we learn from the 3rd and 4th paragraph？
A. Any stranger or co-worker can bring you happiness.
B. Broad social circle contributes to more happiness.
C. Happiness depends only on social interactions.
D. Close relationship influences happiness badly.
29. How may social diversity improve one's well-being according to Collins？
A. By providing motivation for life.
B. By leading to one's balanced life.
C. By arousing one's positive emotions.
D. By making him / her sensitive to happiness.
30. What will be most probably talked about after the last paragraph？
A. Collins's social life. B. Collins's conclusions.
C. Collins's new research. D. Collins's specific suggestions.
D
Many years ago, I bumped into an old friend of mine. He had devoted his life to acting but had never been quite successful. In his middle age, he seemed defeated and sad.
I thought of his dogged (顽强的) perseverance. Was it smart or foolish? What could he have achieved? Had he quit his dream of acting and moved on? Our culture does not look kindly upon quitting. Failure is perfectly acceptable as long as it eventually results in success.
We chant (反复喊着) "Winners never quit" and "If at first you don't succeed, try again." We lap up (欣然接受) stories of persistence, of the author who submitted stories for years before her novels were published or of the athlete who trained since childhood to win gold at the Olympics.
Persistence pays off when it is rewarded with success, but it does not reward every person. For every JK Rowling, there are thousands of aspiring writers who will never get published. For every Olympic athlete, there are innumerable (无数的) others who trained every day of their lives and never made the cut.
We all agree that doing the same things and expecting a different result is unwise. So why do we believe that persevering through failure after failure is a good idea? We consider quitting in the face of failure to be weak. We believe that perseverance is the key to success. Perseverance is only one part of success. You need talent or skill, as well as passion and drive. Luck and timing are also key to any great success.
Our society believes that anything is possible, as long as you "believe". But not everyone can make it. Quitting when you're not ahead is sometimes the smartest thing to do. Obviously, if you enjoy a pursuit, regardless of its outcome, you should continue. If you knew your novel would never be published, would you want to write? If you could never be a champion swimmer, would you still train? Sometimes, it is wise to put your energy into something else.
Failure is not always the path to success. Sometimes, failure is the door to something new.
31. What do we know about the author's old friend?
A. He was dissatisfied with his acting performance.
B. He switched his dream of acting to something else.
C. He failed in acting because of a lack of persistence.
D. He failed in all attempts to become a successful actor.
32. The author mentioned JK Rowling mainly to ______.
A. explain how she achieved success in writing
B. show that success doesn't happen to everyone
C. prove that success favors those who are perseverant
D. encourage readers to hold onto their dream until they succeed
33. What is the meaning of the underlined phrase in paragraph 4?
A. Made out of their dreams. B. Met the required standard.
C. Improved their performances. D. Promised to be good players.
34. What does the author advise us to do if we've failed many times?
A. Make an effort to try new things.
B. Stick to your goal until we succeed.
C. Wait for the right time and good luck.
D. Ask friends or family members for help.
35. What is the author's attitude toward perseverance?
A. It makes anything possible.
B. It is not necessary for success.
C. It is not the only part of success.
D. It works well regards of outcome.

56. Learning outside of a classroom may still be a new thing for many people but not for Kamer •Meli•Veseli，who's completing his final year of high school that way.His family moved from Kosovo to Switzerland，so he's doing his coursework remotely and will take a big test with all of his teachers at the end of the year.It's the ideal arrangement for Meli since it allows him to manage his own schedule and pursue other interests in his free time.That's where Spark and online learning come in.
Meli has always been a serious gamer，but he's not just looking to have fun.He likes examining the technology behind his favorite games and is curious to understand how developers create the graphics，textures，and special effects.He really wanted to make his own games and actually did develop a couple on Android but wasn't satisfied with the results.
Searching for online courses that could take his game to the next level，he found Spark，and it was "one of the happiest days of my life."
But gaming isn't the extent of Meli's interests.He's also a hopeful singer who'd always lacked the confidence to sing in public.Then he took courses on Spark and discovered exercises that could help him loosen and relax his throat and release his voice "10 times better in 10 minutes." Now he plans for Switzerland's version of the TV show "The Voice" in 2016!With Spark courses，Meli's also brushing up on his drawing skills，which he picked up in his childhood.He finally created a perfect portrait of his older brother.
Wherever Meli's dreams take him，he knows he'll be able to find relevant courses on Spark： "The variety is unlimited — so many languages，all kinds of software，even things like meditation and cultural lessons.Whatever you want to learn，you'll find it on Spark."

（2）D.细节理解题。根据倒数第二段的"Then,remembering her contagious condition and that she wasn't supposed to touch me,she quickly let me go.（然后，她想起了她的传染性状况，她不应该碰我，她很快就让我走了。）"可知，因为妈妈传染的情况，病毒可能会从她传染给其他人，因此她立刻让作者离开自己。故选D。
（3）C.推理判断题。根据倒数第二段的"When I looked at Mum,she was smiling as tears streamed down her cheeks.（当我看着妈妈的时候，她在微笑，眼泪顺着脸颊流下来。） "可以推知，作者妈妈看到礼物时非常感动。故选C。
（4）B.推理判断题。根据第三段的"I wanted her to be surprised when she woke on Mother's Day.（我想让她在母亲节那天醒来时感到惊讶。）"和倒数第二段的"She held out her hand for me to come near,then pulled me close and hugged me till it hurt.（她伸出手让我靠近，然后把我紧紧地抱在怀里，直到我疼。） "可以推知，妈妈紧紧抱着作者是因为她非常感激作者为她所做的。故选B。
（5）A.标题归纳题。通读全文可知，文章主要讲述作者买了一株花为生病的妈妈庆祝母亲节，妈妈看到盛开的鲜花很感动，然而第二天晚上妈妈去世了。再结合最后一段的"Not only had that beautiful plant helped show just how much I loved her,but I'd always know how much she loved me.（那株美丽的植物不仅表达了我有多爱她，而且我也知道她有多爱我。）"可知，A项"爱之花"可以作为本文的最佳标题。故选A。

26~30.【答案】C、D、B、C、D
【解析】（1）推理判断题。根据第一段Like many people，in terms of socializing，I prioritize making time for my closest friends and family.When it comes to reaching out to people I don't know as well I often find myself reluctant to engage.This could be a big mistake，though，according to a new study.Having different types of social interactions seems to be central to our happiness — something many of us may think little of.（像许多人一样，在社交方面，我优先考虑为我最亲密的朋友和家人腾出时间。当涉及到接触我不太了解的人时，我经常发现自己不愿意参与。然而，根据一项新的研究，这可能是一个很大的错误。拥有不同类型的社会互动似乎是我们幸福的核心---这是我们许多人可能很少想到的。）可知，作者用"人们优先考虑为最亲密的朋友和家人腾出时间"这一个普遍的社会现象来作为文章的引言，引出"不同类型的社会互动似乎是我们幸福的核心"这一观点。故选C项。
（2）推理判断题。根据第二段In a series of surveys，researchers looked at how having a socially diverse network related to people's well-being.（在一系列的调查中，研究人员观察了拥有一个社会多样化的社交网络是如何与人们的幸福感产生关系的。）可知，这个研究关注的是多样化的社交网络对幸福感的影响，幸福感与生活满意相关。故选D项。
（3）推理判断题。根据第三段"The more you can broaden your social circle and reach out to people you talk to less frequently — like an acquaintance，a friend，a coworker，or even a stranger — the more it could have positive benefits for your well-being，"said the lead researcher Hanne Collins of Harvard Business School.（哈佛大学的首席研究员汉娜•柯林斯说："你越能拓宽自己的社交圈就越能接触到那些你不太经常交谈的人---比如熟人、朋友、同事、甚至是陌生人---它对你的幸福就越有积极的好处，"）和第四段In both cases，they found that when people had a broader range of social interactions，they experienced greater happiness and well-being.（在这两种情况下，他们发现当人们有更广泛的社会互动他们会体验到更大的幸福感和幸福。）可知，这两段都是为了说明拥有更广泛社交圈子有助于拥有更多幸福。故选B项。
（4）推理判断题。根据第六段It could be that being with different people contributes to different kinds of emotions，which may be a driving force in our happiness，says Collins.（可能和不同的人在一起会导致不同的情绪，这可能是我们幸福的驱动力，柯林斯说。）可知，社交多样性会使人产生不同的情绪，而不同的情绪会成为幸福的驱动力。C项中"积极的情绪"也是社交多样性产生的情绪之一，也可以说社交多样性是通过引起人们的积极情绪来提高人的幸福感。A．By providing motivation for life.为生活提供动力；B．By leading to one's balanced life.通过引导一个人平衡的生活；C．By arousing one's positive emotions.通过唤起一个人的积极情绪；D．By making him / her sensitive to happiness.通过让他/她对快乐敏感。故选C项。
（5）推理判断题。根据第六段"Whatever the case，Collins hopes her research will inspire people to expand their social networks when they can."（无论在怎样的事例中，柯林斯希望她的研究能激励人们尽可能扩大自己的社交网络。）可知，柯林斯希望人们扩大自己的社交网络，由此推断接下来作者可能会就如何扩大社交网络给出一些特别的建议。故选D项。
这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了研究者发现拥有多样化社交网络的人拥有更强的幸福感。
一、速读全文，了解大意知主题。阅读能力一般指阅读速度和理解能力两个方面。阅读速度是阅读最基本的能力，考生必须在十分有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读，搜寻关键词、主题句，捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点，并且理清文章脉络，把握语篇实质。二、看题干，带着问题读文章。首先要掌握问题的类型，客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案；而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调等，这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等。其次，了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息，然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读，对有关信息进行快速定位。此法加强了阅读的针对性，提高了做题的准确率。三、逻辑推理，做好深层理解题。在实际阅读中，有时作者并未把意图说出来，阅读者要根据字面意思，通过语篇逻辑关系，研究细节的暗示，推敲作者的态度，理解文章的寓义。要求读者对文字的表面信息进行分析、挖掘和逻辑推理，不能就事论事，以偏概全。推理题在提问中常用的词有：infer，imply，suggest，indicate等。四、猜词悟义，扫除阅读拦路虎。猜词是应用英语的重要能力。它不但需要准确无误地理解上下文，而且要有较大的泛读量，掌握或认识较多的课外词汇。我们要学会"顺藤摸瓜"，通过构词，语法，定义，同位，对比，因果，常识，上下文等线索确定词义。
31~35.【答案】D、B、B、A、C
【解析】【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文，主要论述的是当屡试屡败的时候放弃，转向其他事物也是明智的。
1. 根据第一段的He had devoted his life to acting but had never been quite successful.（他把一生都献给了表演，但从未获得过成功。在他的中年，他似乎失败和悲伤。）可知，作者的老朋友想成为一名成功的演员的一切努力都失败了。故选D。
2. 推理判断题。根据第四段的Persistence pays off when it is rewarded with success, but it does not reward every person. For every JK Rowling, there are thousands of aspiring writers who will never get published.（坚持会得到成功的回报，但这并不会回报每一个人。对于每一个JK罗琳来说，都有成千上万的有抱负的作家永远无法出版自己的作品。）可知，作者提到JK罗琳主要是表明成功是不会发生在每个人身上的，故选B。
3. 词句猜测题。根据第四段的Persistence pays off when it is rewarded with success, but it does not reward every person.（坚持会得到成功的回报，但这并不会回报每一个人。）和For every Olympic athlete, there are innumerable (无数的) others who trained every day of their lives and never made the cut.（对于每一个奥林匹克运动员来说，都有无数的人每天训练，却从没有……）可知，本段主要讲的是不是每个人都会成功，因此划线短语所在句子的意思是“虽然无数的奥林匹克运动员每天训练，但是却不成功”，也就是不一定会达到标准，划线短语的意思是“符合要求的标准”，故选B。
4. 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段的Quitting when you're not ahead is sometimes the smartest thing to do.（当你没有领先的时候放弃有时候是最聪明的做法。）和Sometimes, it is wise to put your energy into something else.（有时候，把你的精力放在其他事情上是明智的。）可知，如果我们失败了很多次，作者建议我们努力尝试新事物。故选A。
5. 观点态度题。根据倒数第三段的Perseverance is only one part of success. You need talent or skill, as well as passion and drive. Luck and timing are also key to any great success.（坚持不懈只是成功的一部分。你需要天赋或技能，以及激情和动力。运气和时机也是任何伟大成功的关键。）可知，作者认为是坚持不懈不是成功的唯一的一部分，还需要天赋或技能，激情和动力以及运气和时机，故选C。

It was time for Mr.Rocco to shut up the shop when I hurried into the flower shop. "Now,what is it you want？" Mr.Rocco turned to me. "I want the most beautiful flower you have." I replied. "And just how much do you have to pay for this most beautiful flower？" I held out a wet hand showing a quarter and dime.He nodded,and then showed me a plant on the counter. "I can give you this one for 35 cents, " he said. "Aw,gee, " I protested, "it looks like a weed （草）!" About 18 inches high,the plant was in a small pot covered with faded red paper. "Now trust me,boy --- I promise that tomorrow morning when you get up,you will find your most beautiful flower, " said Mr.Rocco.I knew him to be a good honest man,so I agreed to take it.
It was almost midnight when I arrived home.Mum was seriously sick and using the front bedroom.I looked in to see if she was asleep,and then quietly tiptoed in and set the plant on the table beside her bed.I wanted her to be surprised when she woke on Mother's Day.
The next morning,I dressed and hurried downstairs.The sun was shining through the kitchen window as I looked into Mum's room and glanced over at the table where the plant was.My goodness!There were three big yellow trumpet shaped blooms.It was just like Mr.Rocco said --- the most beautiful flower I ever saw!When I looked at Mum,she was smiling as tears streamed down her cheeks.She held out her hand for me to come near,then pulled me close and hugged me till it hurt.Then,remembering her contagious condition and that she wasn't supposed to touch me,she quickly let me go.
My dear mum died the next night.The moment she hugged me turned out to be the most wonderful moment of my life.Not only had that beautiful plant helped show just how much I loved her,but I'd always know how much she loved me.

Like many people，in terms of socializing，I prioritize making time for my closest friends and family.When it comes to reaching out to people I don't know as well I often find myself reluctant to engage.This could be a big mistake，though，according to a new study.Having different types of social interactions seems to be central to our happiness — something many of us may think little of.
In a series of surveys，researchers looked at how having a socially diverse network related to people's well-being.In one survey，578 Americans reported on what activities they had been engaged in，with whom and for how long over the past 24 hours，while also saying how happy with life they were.The researchers found that people with more diverse social networks were happier and more satisfied with life than those with less diverse networks — regardless of how much time they had spent socializing overall.
"The more you can broaden your social circle and reach out to people you talk to less frequently — like an acquaintance，a friend，a coworker，or even a stranger — the more it could have positive benefits for your well-being，" said the lead researcher Hanne Collins of Harvard Business School.
To further test this idea，she and her colleagues looked at large data sets from the American Time Use Survey and the World Health Organization's Study on Global Aging and Adult Health.In both cases，they found that when people had a broader range of social interactions，they experienced greater happiness and well-being.
Then Collins and her colleagues did another analysis，using data from a mobile app that 21，644 French-speaking people used to report on their daily social activities and happiness.There，they found that when someone experienced greater-than-average social diversity one week，they were happier that week and the week after.
Why is that？It could be that being with different people contributes to different kinds of emotions，which may be a driving force in our happiness，says Collins.Alternatively，it could be that having a more diverse network allows you to get various social supports when you need it.Whatever the case，Collins hopes her research will inspire people to expand their social networks when they can.
26. What does the author use as an introduction to the passage？
A. A personal communication skill.
B. A social trend against one's will.
C. A common social phenomenon.
D. A culture many people neglect.
27. What do we know about the study？
A. Its results were different from culture to culture.
B. Different results were obtained from the researchers' three surveys.
C. The researchers collected large amounts of data from different platforms.
D. It focused on the impact of a more diverse social network on life satisfaction.
28. What can we learn from the 3rd and 4th paragraph？
A. Any stranger or co-worker can bring you happiness.
B. Broad social circle contributes to more happiness.
C. Happiness depends only on social interactions.
D. Close relationship influences happiness badly.
29. How may social diversity improve one's well-being according to Collins？
A. By providing motivation for life.
B. By leading to one's balanced life.
C. By arousing one's positive emotions.
D. By making him / her sensitive to happiness.
30. What will be most probably talked about after the last paragraph？
A. Collins's social life. B. Collins's conclusions.
C. Collins's new research. D. Collins's specific suggestions.
D
Many years ago, I bumped into an old friend of mine. He had devoted his life to acting but had never been quite successful. In his middle age, he seemed defeated and sad.
I thought of his dogged (顽强的) perseverance. Was it smart or foolish? What could he have achieved? Had he quit his dream of acting and moved on? Our culture does not look kindly upon quitting. Failure is perfectly acceptable as long as it eventually results in success.
We chant (反复喊着) "Winners never quit" and "If at first you don't succeed, try again." We lap up (欣然接受) stories of persistence, of the author who submitted stories for years before her novels were published or of the athlete who trained since childhood to win gold at the Olympics.
Persistence pays off when it is rewarded with success, but it does not reward every person. For every JK Rowling, there are thousands of aspiring writers who will never get published. For every Olympic athlete, there are innumerable (无数的) others who trained every day of their lives and never made the cut.
We all agree that doing the same things and expecting a different result is unwise. So why do we believe that persevering through failure after failure is a good idea? We consider quitting in the face of failure to be weak. We believe that perseverance is the key to success. Perseverance is only one part of success. You need talent or skill, as well as passion and drive. Luck and timing are also key to any great success.
Our society believes that anything is possible, as long as you "believe". But not everyone can make it. Quitting when you're not ahead is sometimes the smartest thing to do. Obviously, if you enjoy a pursuit, regardless of its outcome, you should continue. If you knew your novel would never be published, would you want to write? If you could never be a champion swimmer, would you still train? Sometimes, it is wise to put your energy into something else.
Failure is not always the path to success. Sometimes, failure is the door to something new.
31. What do we know about the author's old friend?
A. He was dissatisfied with his acting performance.
B. He switched his dream of acting to something else.
C. He failed in acting because of a lack of persistence.
D. He failed in all attempts to become a successful actor.
32. The author mentioned JK Rowling mainly to ______.
A. explain how she achieved success in writing
B. show that success doesn't happen to everyone
C. prove that success favors those who are perseverant
D. encourage readers to hold onto their dream until they succeed
33. What is the meaning of the underlined phrase in paragraph 4?
A. Made out of their dreams. B. Met the required standard.
C. Improved their performances. D. Promised to be good players.
34. What does the author advise us to do if we've failed many times?
A. Make an effort to try new things.
B. Stick to your goal until we succeed.
C. Wait for the right time and good luck.
D. Ask friends or family members for help.
35. What is the author's attitude toward perseverance?
A. It makes anything possible.
B. It is not necessary for success.
C. It is not the only part of success.
D. It works well regards of outcome.

56. Learning outside of a classroom may still be a new thing for many people but not for Kamer •Meli•Veseli，who's completing his final year of high school that way.His family moved from Kosovo to Switzerland，so he's doing his coursework remotely and will take a big test with all of his teachers at the end of the year.It's the ideal arrangement for Meli since it allows him to manage his own schedule and pursue other interests in his free time.That's where Spark and online learning come in.
Meli has always been a serious gamer，but he's not just looking to have fun.He likes examining the technology behind his favorite games and is curious to understand how developers create the graphics，textures，and special effects.He really wanted to make his own games and actually did develop a couple on Android but wasn't satisfied with the results.
Searching for online courses that could take his game to the next level，he found Spark，and it was "one of the happiest days of my life."
But gaming isn't the extent of Meli's interests.He's also a hopeful singer who'd always lacked the confidence to sing in public.Then he took courses on Spark and discovered exercises that could help him loosen and relax his throat and release his voice "10 times better in 10 minutes." Now he plans for Switzerland's version of the TV show "The Voice" in 2016!With Spark courses，Meli's also brushing up on his drawing skills，which he picked up in his childhood.He finally created a perfect portrait of his older brother.
Wherever Meli's dreams take him，he knows he'll be able to find relevant courses on Spark： "The variety is unlimited — so many languages，all kinds of software，even things like meditation and cultural lessons.Whatever you want to learn，you'll find it on Spark."
(1) According to the first paragraph，how does Spark influence Meli's life？ （no more than 10 words）

【解析】（1）推理判断题。根据第一段Like many people，in terms of socializing，I prioritize making time for my closest friends and family.When it comes to reaching out to people I don't know as well I often find myself reluctant to engage.This could be a big mistake，though，according to a new study.Having different types of social interactions seems to be central to our happiness — something many of us may think little of.（像许多人一样，在社交方面，我优先考虑为我最亲密的朋友和家人腾出时间。当涉及到接触我不太了解的人时，我经常发现自己不愿意参与。然而，根据一项新的研究，这可能是一个很大的错误。拥有不同类型的社会互动似乎是我们幸福的核心---这是我们许多人可能很少想到的。）可知，作者用"人们优先考虑为最亲密的朋友和家人腾出时间"这一个普遍的社会现象来作为文章的引言，引出"不同类型的社会互动似乎是我们幸福的核心"这一观点。故选C项。
（2）推理判断题。根据第二段In a series of surveys，researchers looked at how having a socially diverse network related to people's well-being.（在一系列的调查中，研究人员观察了拥有一个社会多样化的社交网络是如何与人们的幸福感产生关系的。）可知，这个研究关注的是多样化的社交网络对幸福感的影响，幸福感与生活满意相关。故选D项。
（3）推理判断题。根据第三段"The more you can broaden your social circle and reach out to people you talk to less frequently — like an acquaintance，a friend，a coworker，or even a stranger — the more it could have positive benefits for your well-being，"said the lead researcher Hanne Collins of Harvard Business School.（哈佛大学的首席研究员汉娜•柯林斯说："你越能拓宽自己的社交圈就越能接触到那些你不太经常交谈的人---比如熟人、朋友、同事、甚至是陌生人---它对你的幸福就越有积极的好处，"）和第四段In both cases，they found that when people had a broader range of social interactions，they experienced greater happiness and well-being.（在这两种情况下，他们发现当人们有更广泛的社会互动他们会体验到更大的幸福感和幸福。）可知，这两段都是为了说明拥有更广泛社交圈子有助于拥有更多幸福。故选B项。
（4）推理判断题。根据第六段It could be that being with different people contributes to different kinds of emotions，which may be a driving force in our happiness，says Collins.（可能和不同的人在一起会导致不同的情绪，这可能是我们幸福的驱动力，柯林斯说。）可知，社交多样性会使人产生不同的情绪，而不同的情绪会成为幸福的驱动力。C项中"积极的情绪"也是社交多样性产生的情绪之一，也可以说社交多样性是通过引起人们的积极情绪来提高人的幸福感。A．By providing motivation for life.为生活提供动力；B．By leading to one's balanced life.通过引导一个人平衡的生活；C．By arousing one's positive emotions.通过唤起一个人的积极情绪；D．By making him / her sensitive to happiness.通过让他/她对快乐敏感。故选C项。
（5）推理判断题。根据第六段"Whatever the case，Collins hopes her research will inspire people to expand their social networks when they can."（无论在怎样的事例中，柯林斯希望她的研究能激励人们尽可能扩大自己的社交网络。）可知，柯林斯希望人们扩大自己的社交网络，由此推断接下来作者可能会就如何扩大社交网络给出一些特别的建议。故选D项。
这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了研究者发现拥有多样化社交网络的人拥有更强的幸福感。
一、速读全文，了解大意知主题。阅读能力一般指阅读速度和理解能力两个方面。阅读速度是阅读最基本的能力，考生必须在十分有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读，搜寻关键词、主题句，捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点，并且理清文章脉络，把握语篇实质。二、看题干，带着问题读文章。首先要掌握问题的类型，客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案；而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调等，这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等。其次，了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息，然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读，对有关信息进行快速定位。此法加强了阅读的针对性，提高了做题的准确率。三、逻辑推理，做好深层理解题。在实际阅读中，有时作者并未把意图说出来，阅读者要根据字面意思，通过语篇逻辑关系，研究细节的暗示，推敲作者的态度，理解文章的寓义。要求读者对文字的表面信息进行分析、挖掘和逻辑推理，不能就事论事，以偏概全。推理题在提问中常用的词有：infer，imply，suggest，indicate等。四、猜词悟义，扫除阅读拦路虎。猜词是应用英语的重要能力。它不但需要准确无误地理解上下文，而且要有较大的泛读量，掌握或认识较多的课外词汇。我们要学会"顺藤摸瓜"，通过构词，语法，定义，同位，对比，因果，常识，上下文等线索确定词义。
31~35.【答案】D、B、B、A、C
【解析】【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文，主要论述的是当屡试屡败的时候放弃，转向其他事物也是明智的。
1. 根据第一段的He had devoted his life to acting but had never been quite successful.（他把一生都献给了表演，但从未获得过成功。在他的中年，他似乎失败和悲伤。）可知，作者的老朋友想成为一名成功的演员的一切努力都失败了。故选D。
2. 推理判断题。根据第四段的Persistence pays off when it is rewarded with success, but it does not reward every person. For every JK Rowling, there are thousands of aspiring writers who will never get published.（坚持会得到成功的回报，但这并不会回报每一个人。对于每一个JK罗琳来说，都有成千上万的有抱负的作家永远无法出版自己的作品。）可知，作者提到JK罗琳主要是表明成功是不会发生在每个人身上的，故选B。
3. 词句猜测题。根据第四段的Persistence pays off when it is rewarded with success, but it does not reward every person.（坚持会得到成功的回报，但这并不会回报每一个人。）和For every Olympic athlete, there are innumerable (无数的) others who trained every day of their lives and never made the cut.（对于每一个奥林匹克运动员来说，都有无数的人每天训练，却从没有……）可知，本段主要讲的是不是每个人都会成功，因此划线短语所在句子的意思是“虽然无数的奥林匹克运动员每天训练，但是却不成功”，也就是不一定会达到标准，划线短语的意思是“符合要求的标准”，故选B。
4. 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段的Quitting when you're not ahead is sometimes the smartest thing to do.（当你没有领先的时候放弃有时候是最聪明的做法。）和Sometimes, it is wise to put your energy into something else.（有时候，把你的精力放在其他事情上是明智的。）可知，如果我们失败了很多次，作者建议我们努力尝试新事物。故选A。
5. 观点态度题。根据倒数第三段的Perseverance is only one part of success. You need talent or skill, as well as passion and drive. Luck and timing are also key to any great success.（坚持不懈只是成功的一部分。你需要天赋或技能，以及激情和动力。运气和时机也是任何伟大成功的关键。）可知，作者认为是坚持不懈不是成功的唯一的一部分，还需要天赋或技能，激情和动力以及运气和时机，故选C。

Now he plans for Switzerland's version of the TV show "The Voice" in 2016!With Spark courses，Meli's also brushing up on his drawing skills，which he picked up in his childhood.He finally created a perfect portrait of his older brother. （但游戏并不是Meli的兴趣范围。他也是一位充满希望的歌手，一直缺乏在公众场合唱歌的信心。然后，他参加了Spark的课程，发现了可以帮助他放松和放松喉咙的练习，并"在10分钟内将声音提高10倍"。现在，他计划在2016年参加瑞士版的电视节目"the voice"！通过Spark课程，Meli也在学习自己的绘画技巧，这是他在童年时学到的。他终于为哥哥画了一幅完美的肖像）可知，这一段主要讲述梅利提高Spark的课程提升了自己的歌唱能力和绘画技巧。故答案为How Spark helped Meli with singing and painting.或Spark helped Meli become a good singer and painter.
