Matthew Ames was at home on Monday morning, adjusting to national media attention and life with titanium rods (钛杆) in what remains of his arms and legs. If all goes to plan, later in the year he will have more surgery to fix bionic prosthetics (假肢)It all started 15 months ago, when the Origin Energy engineer who lived with his wife Diane and four children in Camp Hill in Brisbanes east began feeling like he was coming down with the “man flu”. A week later he was in hospital, senseless and on life support, which was caused by a deadly form of bacteria.“He had a 99% chance of dying，”Matthews son Luke, 9, said in a program, Sunday Night which drew more than 2.12 million viewers nationally.Matthews younger sons Ben, 8, and Will, 7, added：“And only 1% of living.”Proudly Will concluded：“And the 1% won against the 99%.”Matthews families were told Matthews only chance of survival was to have his four limbs removed. For Diane, the choice was easy. She could not allow their children to grow up without a father. Eventually, Matthew came to, only to find he had no arms and legs.On Monday, he is attending a Pride of Australia Medal ceremony for which he has been nominated (被提名) in the courage category. “The 40yearold is slowly getting used to a few more people knowing about his story，”his sister Kate told Fairfax Media. “We told his story so that he was known to the kids, and thus people wouldnt stop and stare，” Kate continued. “Were not sure what to expect now that his story has aired across Australia. The effect it would have in a positive way on people is beyond our expectation.”1From the first two paragraphs we can learn that Matthew Ames _.Ahas finished all of his operationsBis the first bionic man in the worldCis becoming the focus of the publicDhad his arms and legs cut completely2From what Matthew Ames sons say, we can conclude that _.Ait was a wonder for their father to escape from deathBmost doctors refused to operate on their fatherCthe sons love is the cure of their fathers diseaseDthe sons pray moved God and saved their father3What was the attitude of Matthews wife when he was advised to cut his legs and arms?ADoubtful.

But does that faster life translate into greater happiness? In faster places, people were more likely to smoke, less likely to take the time to help strangers in need, and more likely to die from heart diseases. Yet Levine and his colleagues found that people in faster places tended to report feeling somewhat happier with their lives than those who lived in slower places. A citys pace of life was indeed “significantly related” to the physical, social, and psychological wellbeing of its inhabitants.However, the relationship between income and reported happiness is far from obvious.According to the “Easterlin paradox (悖论，反论)” (named after economist Richard Easterlin), once people have enough money to meet their basic needs, having more money is not necessarily correlated with higher selfreported happiness. Easterlins claims are controversial and not universally accepted; even if his theory is correct, wealthier nations might be happier overall if they address the basic needs to more of their people. In any case, the ongoing debate indicates that we need to be careful when making connections between happiness and overall economic factors.Among individuals in a society, busyness or the feeling of busyness seems to be an important factor in wellbeing. That feeling of busyness of having a lot to do and too little time in which to do it is often associated with stress and anxiety. However in many contexts being “busy” is badge of honor Busy parents are seen as devoted to their childrens wellbeing and the busy lawyer can charge a premium hourly rate. In US studies, the happiest people reported that they were busy in the sense that they had little excess time, yet did not feel rushed.Levines work raises the possibility that an individuals feelings about their use of time contribute as much or more to their happiness as does economics. Now the big challenge is to find out which way the causal chain works: Does the feeling of being active, yet not rushed，contribute to happiness? Or does happiness allow people to perceive(觉察) their use of time in positive ways?5What can we learn about Levines study?AIt calculated a persons walking distance during a certain period.BIt was carried out for some commercial purposes.CIt researched life rhythm in various economies and areas.DIt was mainly conducted in the western world.6Which of the following does Easterlin paradox support?APeople in faster places may suffer from poorer health.BHappiness is possible only when ones basic needs are met.CPeople in underdeveloped countries are less happier.DHigh income does not necessarily ensure life satisfaction.7The underlined word “inhabitants” in Paragraph 2 probably means _.Apeople who have some unusual habitsBpeople who live in a particular placeCpeople who have stable and good jobsDpeople who are healthy and happy8We can infer from Paragraph 4 that _.Abusy people definitely have a higher degree of happinessBpeople will feel relaxed if they have nothing to doCbeing actively engaged contributes to life satisfactionDbusy people are supposed to make more money答 案.1.选D此处为动词的现在分词作状语。如选A项，则是动词不定式表目的，应去掉逗号；句中已有谓语部分，故排除B、C两项。2选B答句句意：我把所有的口袋都翻遍了，就是找不到我的钥匙。go after“追求”；go through“检查，经历”；go against“违背”；go ahead“开始，进行”。3选B句意：让我们愤怒的是，许多贫困县建造奢华的办公楼，而不是拨款去改善当地学校的恶劣条件。announce“宣布，宣告”；allocate“拨(给)”；advocate“提倡，拥护”；accumulate“积累，(数量)逐渐增加”。4选D句意：我们如此焦急匆忙地离开以至于忘了飞机票。in a rush“匆忙地”；such修饰名词，而so修饰形容词和副词，故D项正确。5选A句意：幸亏有了电子邮件，现在你只要按一下按钮就能在几秒内把一封信寄出半个世界了。根据句意可知应选A项。apart from“除以外”；regardless of“不管，不顾”；according to“依据，根据”。6选A句意：在希腊，令我印象深刻的是那些岛屿周围的海洋是深蓝色的。oceans与surround间为主动关系，故用surrounding作定语。7选A此处为条件状语从句中的省略，省略了主语及be动词，补全后为if it was adapted for television，故选A。8选D句意：因为受到警告夜里街上有危险，所以她不得不在一个朋友陪伴下回家。第一空强调“被警告”的动作发生于“回家”之前，故用现在分词完成时的被动语态；accompany和friend构成主动关系，故用现在分词形式作宾语补足语。9选B句意：为了完成研究论文，Reagan教授在为期半年的南极探险中经历了各种困难和孤独。本题考查不定式作状语，表示目的。10选D第一空用现在分词作定语；第二空考查assist sb. in doing sth.“帮助某人做某事”
