I was 18 when I first went t sea as a turist. As a teenager wh always lked fr nvelty and a real adventure, I jined the Merchant Navy immediately after schl. I gt a rund-the-wrld jurney as my first trip we went t Suth Africa, Australia and New Zealand and sailed dwn the Panama Canal. Over the next 15 years, I enjyed a jyful life as a steward, wrking lng hurs but playing hard during my time f. Then n the evening f my 33rd birthday in Nvember 1983, we stpped in Trinidad and a grup f us went t the land t celebrate. But when I pened my eyes at nn the next day, I knew I was suffering frm mre than just the typical effects f being drunk and staying up all night-I fund I culd see nthing.
As I was helped ff the ship, I tried t calm dwn, assuming the situatin was temprary. Later, I flew back t the UK and was examined by a specialist. He tld me I had a rare serius medical cnditin,which culd make me blind fr the rest f my life. I culdn’t prcess what I’d heard at first; it just didn’t seem t make sense.
In the fllwing mnths, I felt my life was ver. I had lst nt nly my sight but als my independence-I was trapped in my huse with n incme. At first, I fund it difficult t make my way frm ne rm t anther, and the thught f ging utside filled me with anxiety.
The turning pint came when I went n a camping hliday wit ther visually impaired peple-it made such a difference t be able t talk t peple wh understd my situatin. Later, I started a tw-year curse at the Ryal Natinal Institute fr the Blind, learning new skills. Halfway thrugh the curse, I gt my first guide dg, Otis, which changed everything. I had a friend wh always stayed with me-it was as if all the difficulties had disappeared and the sense f regained freedm was exciting.
Shrtly after that, I started wrking again, and have since enjyed a rewarding career with rganizatins that help visually impaired peple.

We have t make certain ur limited mney is well spent. But what shuld we spend ur mney n? A 20-year study cnducted by Dr. Gilvich, a prfessr at Crmell University, reached a pwerful and straightfrward cnclusin: dn’t spend yur mney n things.
The truble with things is that the happiness they prvide peters ut. We get used t new pssessins, and what nce seemed exciting quickly becmes the cmmn. We keep raising the bar and always lk fr an even better ne. Pssessins, by their nature, cause cmparisns. We buy a new car and are thrilled with it until a friend buys a better ne -and there’s always smene with a better ne. Mst f us usually assume that the happiness we get frm buying smething will last as lng as the thing itself. It seems intuitive (直觉的) that investing in smething we can see, hear, and tuch n a permanent basis delivers the best value. But it’s nt the case at all.
Gilvich has fund that experiences deliver mre-lasting happiness than things. Experiences becme a part f ur identity. Everyne’s experience is unique. We are nt ur pssessins, but we are the accumulatin f everything we’ve seen, the things we’ve dne, and the places we’ve been t. “Our experiences are a bigger part f urselves than ur material gds,” said Gilvich. “Yu can really like yur material stuff. Yu can even think that part f yur identity is cnnected t thse things, but they remain separate frm yu. In cntrast, yur experiences really are part f yu. We are the sum ttal f ur experiences.”
Besides, we dn’t cmpare experiences in the same way that we cmpare things. It’s hard t quantify the relative value f any tw experiences, which makes them that much mre enjyable. And expectatin f an experience causes excitement and enjyment, while expectatin f btaining a pssessin causes impatience. Experiences are enjyable frm the very first mments f planning, all the way thrugh t the memries yu keep frever. The temprary happiness achieved by buying things can be regarded as “puddles (水坑) f pleasure.” In ther wrds, that kind f happiness evaprates (蒸发) quickly and leaves us wanting mre. Things may last lnger than experiences, but the memries that remain are what matter mst.
8. The underlined phrase “peters ut” can be replaced by ______.
A. takes awayB. dies awayC. is nt realD. csts t much
9. What des Gilvich think f experiences?
A. Experiences can exist in ur memry frever.
B. Our experiences take up all parts f urselves.
C. Our experiences are what set us apart frm thers.
D. Experiences deliver less-lasting happiness than things.
10. What can be inferred frm the passage?
A. Spiritual wealth is the mst valuable fr us.
B. Experiences can be cmpared with each ther.
C. Expecting an experience increases ur feeling f anxiety.
D. Peple are mre likely t be impatient when buying things.
11. Which is the main idea f the passage?
A. Hw can we make happiness last lng?
B. Hw can we gain happiness with mney?
C. Why d experiences achieve permanent happiness than things?
D. Why shuld we spend mney n experiences instead f things?
D
Persnality has been described in all srts f animal species. Sme are shy while thers are active. Nw a new study suggests experts can reliably measure animal persnality simply frm the way animals mve, and that the methd culd be used t help scientists and mathematicians frm Swansea University and the University f Essex filmed the mvements f 15 three-spined stickleback fish (三刺鱼) swimming in a tank which cntained tw ,three r five plastic plants in fixed psitins. Using the high-reslutin tracking data frm vide recrdings, the team measured hw lng and hw ften the fish turned, and hw lng they stpped and started mving.
The data shwed that each fish’s mvements were very different, and that these differences were highly repeatable—s mush s that the researchers culd identify a fish just frm its mvement data.
Dr Ines Furthbauerm, a c-authr f the study frm Swansea University, said, “These persnalities in fish are like signatures—different and unique t an individual. We fund the fish’s signatures were the same when we made simple changes t the fish tanks, such as adding additinal plants. Hwever, it is pssible that these signatures change gradually ver an animal’s lifetime, r suddenly if an animal meets smething new r unexpected in its envirnment. Tracking animals’ mvements ver lnger perids and in the wild will give us this srt f insight and help us better understand nt nly persnality but als hw flexible an animal’s behavir is.”
Dr Andrew King, lead authr frm Swansea University, said, “The research is significant because it suggest we might be able t quantify persnality differences in wild animals.
12. What did the research team d t the fish?
A. They kept measuring their sizes.B. They fed them with real plants.
C. They recrded their mvements.D. They put them in different tanks.
13. What did Dr Ines Furtbauer find abut the fish’s persnalities in the study?
A. They remained relatively stable.B. They changed easily accrdingly.
C. They prved difficult t detect.D. They were the same as thers’.
14. What is Dr Andrew King’s attitude t the new study?
A. Psitive.B. Disapprving.
C. Cnservative.D. Unclear.
15. What can be a suitable title fr the text?
A. Persnality Determines Mvements.B. Hw Animals Mve Seems Similar.
C. Persnality Is Nt a Secret.D. Animals’ Mvements Tell Persnality.
