They work much longer than in Europe. This difference is quite surprising because productivity per hour worked is the same in the United States as it is in France, Spain and Germany, and it is growing at a similar speed. In most countries and at most times in history, as people have become richer they have chosen to work less. In other words, they have decided to “spend” a part of their extra income on a fuller personal life. Over the last fifty years Europeans have continued this pattern, and hours of work have fallen sharply. But not in the United States. We do not fully know why this is. One reason may be greatly lower taxes in America, which increase the rewards（回报）to work. Another may be more satisfying work, or less satisfying personal lives. Longer hours do of course increase the GDP(国内产生产总值). So the United States has produced more per worker than, say, France. The United States also has more of its people at work, while in France many more mothers and older workers have decided to stay at home. The overall result is that American GDP per head is 40% higher than in France, even though productivity per hour worked is the same. It is not clear which of the two situations is better. As we have seen, work has to be compared with other values like family life, which often get lost in its interest. It is too early to explain the different trends(趋势) in happiness over time in different countries. But it is a disappointing idea that in the United States happiness has made no progress since 1975, while it has risen in Europe. Could this have anything to do with trends in the work-life balance (平衡)？46. From the text we know that the author_. A. believes that longer working hours is better B. prefers shorter working hours to longer ones C. says nothing certain about which pattern is better D. thinks neither of the patterns is good47. Which of the following countries has more of its people at work? A. Spain. B. France. C. Germany. D. America. 48. In the last paragraph, the underlined word “which” refers to _. A. family lifeB. situations C. other values D. trends49. What message can we get from the text? A. The GDP of Europe is higher than that of America. B. Two possible reasons are given for working longer hours in the US. C. People all over the world choose to work less when they are richer. D. Americans are happier than Europeans. 50. Which of the following would be the best title for the text？ A. Americans and EuropeansB. Staying at Home C. Work and ProductivityD. Work and HappinessBSo much to do, so little timeSo much information, so little time to readIn this age there is more information than ever beforeThere is not enough time to read everything we want to readHowever, you can take in and understand more information in shorter time through speed-readingThis article will not make you read 3 000 words per minute, but it will show you how to increase your speed greatlyYou will also learn the basic techniques of speed reading, along with the dos and donts of speed-readingWhen you first learned to read, you would say the word out loud and sound it outThen you might whisper the word because people can become annoyed when you read aloudThe stage you are now at is saying the word in your headMost people tend to read this waySaying the word in your head will cut your reading speed tremendously (极大的)How do you calculate your reading speed? The speed is measured by how many words per minute you can readGet some reading material, preferably a bookFind out how many words are on the pageTime yourself one minuteStart your timer and start readingWhen the timer sounds, stop at onceIf you counted 500 words on the page and you read half of the page, then you are probably reading at 250 words per minuteThe first thing about speed-reading is looking at the word and recognizing itDont say the word in your mind, just look at it and recognize its appearanceLater you will recognize groups of four words or more to increase your speedThis is the first and most important step in speed-readingThe next step is techniqueAs with any other skill, speed-reading requires techniqueYou should first be sitting up straight with your book on a horizontal (水平的) surface, such as a table or deskNext, should be able to see the entire pageThis is necessary if you want to recognize clumps of wordsLastly, you should be focusedIts hard to read a lot of noiseFind a quiet place to readThis will help your understand of the textYou need something to guide your eyes while readingThen right, you should use your hand, Remember when you were little, you would read using your fingerThat is a great technique, only now youre using your hand to underline each lineMove your finger smoothly across pageNo need to go rush , start our slowKeep your eyes focused on words as you recognize them while using your hand as a guideThis will increase you speedThe third step is practicePractice makes perfectSet time intervals(间歇)Read using different techniques, but make sure you understand what youre reading51Which of the following statements is true according to the text?

Together they eat in the finest restaurants, traveling everywhere around the world by luxurious planes and pleasure ships. They are models. Do you envy them? What sort of life are models leading? Is it a wonderful life for a young lady or a young man?A few models are well-known actors or actresses who can make a lot of money only by showing themselves off in commercials. But the majority of them are just curious to see what it is like. Theyd like to be models just because they are attracted by what they imaginemodels earn a lot of money and lead a glorious life. This is true for those who are very successful. However, most models find it difficult to get work. Very few can earn enough to live on, and for all models their expenses are high. Their agents claim about 20% of the earnings, and no model will get very far without a clever agent. Besides, they have to buy good clothing. They also have to pay to travel to interviews and reach the places where the work is to be done. Interviews for a model job are known as cattle-markets in the modeling world, and not without a good reason. A top model can choose his or her work, demand and receive high fees and has his or her expenses paid. But for most models, the situation is quite different. And agent or employer inspects each model much as a farmer inspects cattle at a market. Intelligence, qualifications and personal characteristics count for little against good looks and tight figures. For all except the very few lucky ones, the life of a model is a continual search for work, trying to sell himself or herself in the face of fierce competition and, sometimes, not particularly moral standards on the part of some employers. Immigration officials at airport look suspiciously at a girl whose passport shows her occupation as “Model”, and these are men and women of considerable experience of the world. It comes no surprise to find that some models prefer to put “Secretary” or “Businessman” as their jobs in their passports. Modeling is a changeable world with great rewards for a tiny minority but not for the majority.56. For models, their good looks and tight figures are _, compared with their intelligence and qualifications. A. more important B. less needed C. less essential D. more looked down upon57. Which of the following can lead you to believe according to the passage? A. A models traveling expenses are usually paid by his employer. B. To be a model, good looks are the most important qualification. C. Most models have a fairly easy way of life with high pay. D. A model can hardly be successful without a good agent.58. Models often put “Secretary” or “Businessman” instead of “Model” in their passports because _. A. they want to avoid being stopped to sign their names by fans B. a person with the occupation of a model is easily attacked by black societies C. models are sometimes looked down upon D. secretaries and businessmen are free of custom duty59. What may be the authors attitude towards modeling? A. It is a worthwhile life for a young lady or a young man. B. He is in favour of young people to try modeling. C. Before being crazy about a model job, young people should be aware of the difficulties. D. It is a field in which everyone has a great chance to succeed.60. The underlined word “suspiciously” can most probably be replaced by _. A. doubtfully B. excitedly C. proudly D. sadly第二节：在第61至65题中，Susan, Mike, Jane, George 和Tom正计划参加一个夏令营。阅读下面六个夏令营的介绍选项（A、B、C、D、E和F），选出符合各人需求的最佳选项,并在答
