BHere are two interesting questions. Are you very happy with your life now? Are people happier as they get older? A study found that people generally become happier and experience less worry after age 50. In fact, it found that by the age of 85, people are happier with their life than they were at 18.The finding came from a Gallup survey of more than 340,000 adults between the age of 18 and 85 in the United States.Arthur Stone in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Science at Stony Brook University in New York led the study. His team found that levels of stress were highest among adults between the ages of 22 and 25. Stress levels dropped sharply after people reached their fifties.Happiness was highest among the youngest adults and those in their early seventies. But the people least likely to report feeling negative emotions were those in their seventies and eighties. The survey also found that men and women had similar emotional patterns as they grow older. However, women at all ages reported more sadness, stress and worry than men did. The researchers also considered possible influences like having young children, being unemployed or being single. But they found that influences like these did not affect the levels of happiness and well-being related to age.So why would happiness increase with age? One theory is that, as people get older, they become more thankful for what they have and have better control of their emotions. They also spend less time thinking about bad experiences.The original goal of the study was to confirm the popular belief that aging is connected with increased sleep problems. The survey did find an increase during middle age, especially in women. But except for that, people reported that they felt their sleep quality improved as they got older.4When will adults feel most stressful according to the study?AIn their seventies.BIn their fifties.CIn their twenties.DIn their eighties.5What may make Arthur Stone feel a bit surprised?AWomen usually live longer than men.BMost of old people cant sleep well at night.CMiddle-age men mostly are very rich.DOld people usually have a better sleep.6Old people may be happier probably because .Athey spend more time considering bad experiencesBthey are most likely satisfied with life.Cthey dont have to work hard every day.Dthey can do whatever they like best.7Which of the following may be the topic of this passage?AThe young people and the old people.BThe connection of sleep and happiness.COld peoples feeling of happiness.DWomen are not as happy as men with their life. CAccording to a survey, in Washington, DC, only 69 percent of public school students graduate from high school on time. Many factors influence that low rate. One of the most important ones is whether the people around the students expect them to succeed.So, for the past 40 years, a DC organization has stepped in to give around 10,000 students the support and positive environment they need to thrive. This organization, called Higher Achievement, provides students with a welcoming space, help with class work, and caring teachers. More than 95 percent of students who complete Higher Achievement graduate from high school on time. Katherine Roboff is the groups executive director in the DC area. She gives several reasons for the groups success. One is timing. Higher Achievement does not work with students who are already in high school. It works with students in middle school. They start High Achievement at fifth or sixth grade-in the US, that is usually age 11 or 12. Robolf says research shows that if students are doing well academically in eighth grade-around age 13-they will have a greater chance of graduating from high school and going to college. In other words, what happens in middle school has a huge effect. The years between ages 10 and 13 may affect a students future more than anything that happens academically in high school.Roboff explains that students participate in Higher Achievement after school and during the summer，when public schools take a break of about two months. High Achievement students do homework, have community meetings, and work one-on-one with a mentor（导师）.The purpose of the programme is to help them use those after school and summer hours to become better prepared academically and to develop their leadership skills and confidence so that by the time they get into eighth grade they are ready to get into some of the top high school.”8What can we infer from the second paragraph?AHigher Achievement works with college students.BMany students have doubts about the organization.CHigher Achievement has spread throughout the US.DHigher Achievement has helped many high school students.9If students are doing well academically in eighth grade, .Athey are certain to go to collegeBthey are to succeed when they grow upCthey are more likely to finish high school on timeDthey dont need any help in their studies10What does the underlined word in the second paragraph probably mean?Abecome naughtyBimprove themselvesCearn more moneyDhelp others11The last two paragraphs tell us .Apublic schools never offer positive environmentBHigher Achievement only helps the students in the eighth gradeChow Higher Achievement helps those studentsDHigher Achievement only helps those who have good skills. DChina dropped its decades-long, one-child policy several years ago to allow each family to have two children. This change has put 270 million married women of childbearing age in the position of choosing between family and work. The employers also face big challenges as more female workers will have two maternity leaves（产假）for a total of seven to eight months.In a survey published by classified advertising website G，career women who might be considering having a second child were asked what kinds of pressure they might expect. More than 76 percent of the women who were questioned mentioned concerns about the financial burden of raising two children, while more than 71 percent said it would be difficult to balance career and family. In addition, nearly 56 percent said that having a second child would definitely have a negative effect on their career.Another survey conducted by Chongging-based human resources website job. cg. qq. com found that over 70 percent of job seekers believe that having a second child would make females less popular in the job market, although two-thirds of the employers said the policy will make no difference in their employment of staff.Feng Lijuan,a senior expert on human resources at 51 job. com, a leading Chinese job finding platform, said she would not say “there is prejudice against career women.” Feng said Chinese women shoulder more family responsibility. “It is not only about maternity leave; a female employee might only fully get back to work after three to five years after having her first child.”Wang Yixin, a senior employment adviser, said the positive side is that more companies are trying to attract more talents by providing support to career women. “Different from before, it is not only employers choosing employees. Many talents, including professional career women, also chose employers.” said Wang. “According to our survey, many large companies are very open to their employees choice of having a second child.”12According to the second survey, having a second child would .Ahave no effect on career womenBhave a negative effect on career womenChave a positive effect on career womenDhave both positive and negative effects on career women13According the first survey，what are women concerned about when having two children?Financial burden of raising two childrenFewer opportunities to get a pay riseNegative effects on their careerDifficulty in balancing career and familyABCD14Women employees take longer time to concentrate on work after childbirth because .Athere is more prejudice against career womenBthey shoulder more family responsibilityCthey have longer maternity leaves to enjoyDhaving a second child makes them less popular15Which is the best title for the passage?AEffects of Two-child Policy on WomenBDisadvantages of Raising Two ChildrenCResponsibilities of Career WomenDDifferent attitudes of Employers to Women二、完形填空One day, I saw a small poster across the room, which read, “In order to help others，I must help myself first.” I cant 16 where I got it, but the poster has always been there.
