Unit 10Money能力提升题组训练(A).阅读理解(2018英语学习辅导报 32期)Does being rich make you happy?U.S.Central Bank Chairman Ben Bernanke says that it does to some extent,but that theres more to life than going after money.When people say that money does not buy happiness,they generally mean “extra money”.People whose basic needs for shelter,clothing and food are not met will find it very difficult to feel happy.Even here there are exceptions,especially for people with certain religious beliefs.Happiness research shows that for ones level of happiness,how much one has compared with others is more important than how much one has in absolute terms.Again,this is assuming basic needs have been met.Although rich people generally feel happier than poor people in the same country,rich people in a rich country do not feel happier than rich people in a poor country,even though,in absolute terms,they have more.This means that while keeping up with the Joneses (与别人攀比)can be harmful if we let it go too far,it is also part of human nature to feel at least on a similar level,financially,to those surrounding us.What are our basic needs,then?For most people,the basic needs are not very basic anymore.We expect to be able to provide a family with adequate shelter,new clothing,plenty of food,health care and education,while also saving for our retirement.“Meeting basic needs requires effort and dedication,but if your basic needs are met,take a good look at your life and at your career choices.Work-life balance is important.It doesnt make sense to work 40 hours per week for 40 years in a job you hate,and live only for the weekend.For most of us,once our basic needs have been met,happiness is achieved when we engage in activities that are interesting to us,spend time with friends and family,and stay active.Making money for the sake of making money does not make people happy.1.People usually find out their level of happiness by .A.meeting their basic needs B.earning a lot of moneyC.comparing themselves with othersD.feeling happier than rich people2.We can learn from the passage that .A.if basic needs are met,one should look at ones career choicesB.it is impossible to feel happy if ones basic needs are not metC.it is good to compete with othersD.rich people in rich countries are happier than those in poor countries3.Once their basic needs are met,people achieve happiness when they .A.get a job that is well-paidB.get a balance between work and lifeC.go after more and more moneyD.save enough money for retirement4.What is the passage mainly about ?A.How to make full use of ones money.B.What affects ones feelings.C.How to satisfy ones basic needs.D.Whether money leads to happiness.语篇解读:本文是议论文,主要论述了金钱在我们生活中的意义。答案及剖析:1.C细节理解题。根据第三段第一句Happiness research shows that for ones level of happiness,how much one has compared with others is more important than how much one has in absolute terms.可知,人们通常通过和别人比较来判断自己的幸福水平,故选C。2.A细节理解题。根据第六段的Meeting basic needs requires effort and dedication,but if your basic needs are met,take a good look at your life and at your career choices.可知,如果基本的生活需求满足了,人们应该着眼于自身的生活及对职业的选择,故选A。3.B细节理解题。根据倒数第二段Work-life balance is important.It doesnt make sense to work 40 hours per week for 40 years in a job you hate,and live only for the weekend.以及最后一段可知,有钱并不能给人带来幸福,只有在满足基本生活需求的基础上,达到工作和生活的平衡,人们才能获得幸福感。故选B。4.D主旨大意题。通读全文可知,本文主要论述金钱在我们生活中的意义,金钱是否能给人们带来快乐的问题,故选D。.七选五(2018辽宁大连高三一模)Does your mood change with the seasons?Some people find that when the temperature goes down,so do their spirits.1.
