Unit 3 Computers李仕才一、阅读理解。Aging brings wrinkles, sagging bodies and frustrating forgetfulness. But getting older is not all bad for many people. Mounting evidence suggests aging may be a key to happiness. There is conflicting research on the subject, however, and experts say it may all boil down to this: Attitude is everything.Older adults tend to be more optimistic and have a more positive outlook on life than their younger and stressed opposites. The big question is why seniors are happier. A recent study suggests one reason: Older adults remember the past through happy memories. Aging can bring more cheer as people become more comfortable with themselves and their roles in society. The older adults said they were enjoying more time with their family, spending more time on hobbies and having greater financial security and did not have to work.But others are doubtful about the link between happiness and growing older.The notion that those in old age are happiest is misleading, said Richard Easterlin, a professor of economics at the University of Southern California. It is based on comparing people of different ages who are the same in terms of income, health, family life. Easterlin added, When you take account of the fact that older people have lower income than younger, are less healthy, and more likely to be living alone, then you will find it hard to accept that they are happier.In fact, scientists have found that as people age, their health declines and social networks disappear as their friends die, which can make the elderly less happy.Even if one does give in to ages dark side, health and happiness dont always go hand-in-hand. Its all about attitude. Research by the University of Chicagos Yang suggests that attitude about life and happiness, is partly shaped by the era in which a person was born. It turns out that individuals who adapt the best to changes also have the highest expected levels of happiness.Despite the conflicting findings about aging and happiness, the good news is that there doesnt appear to be a limit to how much happiness one can achieve in ones life. “Most people desire happiness,” Easterlin said. “To my knowledge, no one has identified a limit to attainable happiness.”1.What does the last paragraph mainly tell us?A. The key factor to older adults happinessB. There is a conflict between aging and happinessC. No one can define the limit to happiness.D. The relationship between health and happiness.2.Why are some seniors happier according to some experts?A. They focus on what makes them feel good.B. They have their own circle of friends.C. They have better income after retirement.3.What can we learn from the passage?A. People of the same age have the same sense of happiness.B. Attitude may play a very important role in happiness.C. People who adapt the best to changes are more likely to be unhappy.D. Older adults who have more valuable life experience are more optimistic.4.Whats the topic discussed in the passage?A. Whether aging or attitude brings happiness.B. Why seniors adapt the best to changes in society.C. What the limit to an elder persons happiness is.D. How older people feel compared with younger people.【文章大意】随着年龄的增加变老,人们的幸福感也是不一样的。一些人认为老年人会更幸福些,而另一部分分则持有相反的观点。无论如何,幸福的关键在于一个人对生活的态度。1.C 【解析】推理判断题。根据此段中“the good news is that there doesnt appear to be a limit to how much happiness one can achieve in ones life no one has identified a limit to attainable happiness.”可知,幸福是没有标准和限度的。故选C。3.B 【解析】推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段中“Its all about attitude. Research by the University of Chicagos Yang suggests that attitude about life and happiness, is partly shaped by the era in which a person was born. It turns out that individuals who adapt the best to changes also have the highest expected levels of happiness.”可知,人们对生活和幸福的感觉主要取决于一个人的态度。故选B。二、单句语法填空1Misunderstanding (arise) from lack of social communication, unless handled properly, may lead to serious problems.答案:arising2They (total)overlooked the study of this important subject.答案:totally3Though the problem given by the teacher was difficult,the boy said that he could find the (solve) to it.答案:solution4Her car broke down on her way to the park; as result, she had to ask someone to repair it.答案:a5 children get older, they become more and more interested in the things around them.答案:As6This question is too difficult for the children.
