B A global survey of charitable giving conducted on 135 nations might give us a renewed sense of faith in humanity. The World Giving Index 2014 examined whether people donated money to a charity, volunteered their time to an organization or offered assistance to someone they didnt know who needed help. About 2.3 billion people worldwide reported helping a stranger over the course of one month last year, and over 1.4 billion donated money to charitable causes in 2013. It may not be surprising that the United States, one of the wealthiest countries in the world, came on top as the most generous nation. What is astonishing is that the accolade （荣誉）was shared with Myanmar, a nation ranking 151 spots lower than the U.s. on the GDP per capita scale. In fact, the report found that a nations economic prosperity doesnt automatically translate to generosity. Only five of the countries in this years World Giving Index Top 20 are members of the G20, a forum of the worlds largest economies. Less wealthy places like Sri Lanka and Trinidad and Tobago featured in the top 10. Other factors, like following a religious philosophy or responding to a natural disaster, were found to be major drivers of donations. Myanmar earned its top place mainly due to the fact that nearly all of the respondents, 91%, donated money to charity, a practice which is rooted in the countrys Theravada Buddhist community. Another high-ranking country with a large population of the followers of that religion is Sri Lanka, which ranked ninth in the Index. Malaysias high jump in the ranking, from 71st place to 7th, was attributed to the outpouring of the humanitarian aid after the destructive Typhoon Haiyan hit the neighboring Philippines. In Africa, Kenya has moved 18 places up this year, ranking 15th in the global index. Its the most charitable country in the continent, ahead of larger economies like Nigeria, which is in the 21st place, and South Africa with rank 34th. Africans are also three times more likely to extend a helping hand to strangers than donate money or volunteer, which seems to show that are more likely to show their generosity through community support than formalized channels. From a global perspective, the report concludes that the diverse nature of the top giving countries signals that regardless of geography or culture, people universally appear to respond to those in need.58. Which of the following is NOT the factor contributing to peoples generosity? A. A nations economic prosperity. B. A religious philosophy. C. The response to a natural disaster. D. The requirement of the government.59. The author may agree with the following versions EXCEPT that_. A. Kenya is the most charitable country in the continent of Africa. B. Africans tend to show their generosity through formalized channels. C. Malaysia ranks higher this year due to its abunsant aid to Philippines. D. many people in Myanmar and Sri Lanka share the same religious philosophy.60. Which of the following shows the correct order of the countries in the World Giving Index? A. Kenya-Tobago-Nigeria-Myanmar. B. America-Tobago-Nigeria-Trinidad. C. Myanmar-Malaysia-Kenya-Nigeria. D. Sri Lanka-Kenya-South Africa-Trinidad.61. The passage mainly tells us that_. A. America took the lead in charitable giving. B. People have more faith in humanity nowadays. C. most people are willing to lend a hard when necessary. D. Some poor countries are more likely to show their generosity.CBiologists believe that love is fundamentally a biological rather than a cultural construct, because the capacity for love is found in all human cultures and similar behavior is found in some other animals. In humans the purpose of all the desire is to focus attention on the raising of offspring. Children demand an unusual amount of parenting, and two parents are better than one. Love is a signal that both partners are committed, and makes it more likely that this commitment will continue as long as necessary for children to reach independence. But what does science have to say about the notion of love at first sight?In recent years the ability to watch the brain in action has offered a wealth of insight into the mechanics of love. Researchers have shown that when a person falls in love, a dozen different part of brain work together to release chemicals that trigger feelings of euphoria, bonding and excitement. It has also been shown that the unconditional love between a mother and a child is associated with activity in different regions of the brain from those associated with pair-bonding love.Passionate love is rooted in the reward circuitry of the brainthe same area that is active when humans feel a rush from cocaine. In fact, the desire, motivations and withdrawals involved in love have a great deal in common with addiction. Its most intense forms tend to be associated w
