34、k the whole purpose of life was pursuing happiness. Everyone said the path to happiness was success, so I searched for that ideal job, that perfect boyfriend, that beautiful apartment. But instead of ever feeling fulfilled, I felt anxious and adrift. Eventually, I decided to go to graduate school fo

35、r positive psychology to learn what truly makes people happy.And what?s the difference between being happy and having meaning in life? Many psychologists define happiness as a state of comfort and ease, feeling good in the moment. Meaning, though, is deeper. The renowned psychologist Martin Seligman

36、 says meaning comes from belonging to and serving something beyond yourself and from developing the best within you. Our culture is obsessed （痴迷于 ） with happiness, but I came to see that seeking meaning is the more fulfilling path.There are four pillars （ 支柱） of a meaningful life.The first pillar is

37、 belonging. Belonging comes from being in relationships where you?re valued for who you are intrinsically and where you value others as well. For many people, belonging is the most essential source of meaning.For others, the key to meaning is the second pillar: purpose. Finding your purpose is not t

38、he same thing as finding that job that makes you happy. A hospital custodian told me her purpose is healing sick people. Many parents tell me, “ Mypurpose is raising my children. T”he key to purpose is using your strengths to serve others. Without something worthwhile to do, people flounder.The thir

39、d pillar of meaning is also about stepping beyond yourself, but in a completely different way: transcendence （超然）. Transcendent experiences can change you. Transcendent states are those rare moments when you?re lifted above the hustle and bustle of daily life, your sense of self fades away, and you

40、feel connected to a higher reality. For me, I?m a writer, and it happens through writing. Sometimes I get so in the zone that I lose all sense of time and place.The fourth pillar is storytelling, the story you tell yourself about yourself. Creating a narrative from the events of your life brings cla

41、rity. It helps you understand how you became you. But we don?t always realize that we?re the authors of our stories and can change the way we?re telling them. Your life isn?t just a list of events. You can edit, interpret and retell your story, even as you?re constrained by the facts.That?s the powe

42、r of meaning. Happiness comes and goes. But when life is really good and when things are really bad, having meaning gives you something to hold on to.57. What can we infer from the first two paragraphs?A. Life can be fulfilled by landing ideal jobs.B. Life dilemma is easy for us to get out of.C. Hap

43、p in ess is the core values in our culture.D. Happ in ess is what most people pursue.58. From the four pillars of a mea nin gful life, we can know that.A. nothing is as esse ntial a source of meaning as bel ongingB. purpose is less about what you want tha n what you giveC. transcendent fades easily

44、and rarely makes us cheerfulD. the way of telling stories guarantees a meaningful life59. The passage aims to tell us that.A. meaning is more importa nt tha n happ in essB. seek ing meaning does more good tha n badC. chas ing happ in ess can make people un happyD. meaning has deeper psychological si

45、g ni fica neeCIn 2015 a paper published in a scienee magazine reported on the pers on ality types of people livi ng in various London districts. Extroverts （夕卜向的人）,the researchers who wrote it had discovered, favored Richm ond. Those who were most ope n to experie nee gathered in Hack ney. People in

46、 Barnet scored lower tha n average on emoti onal stability.What this study did not address was whether some one home range reflects their pers on ality traits orimposes them .In other words, is what is going on nature or nurture” 培育）? However, i n a piece of research just published, Dr. Holtmann of

47、Otago University, in New Zealand, and his colleagues have filled that gap at least, they have filled it for dunno cks.The dunnock is a Europea n bird. It has, though, bee n in troduced to New Zeala nd and its population has boomed there. It is a well-studied species, and, in particular, some being m

48、easurably bolder （更大胆的）and more tolerant of potential threats, such as nearby human beings, than others. The team? research area was the Botanic Garden in Dunedin. This is open to the public, but some areas are more frequented by visitors than others. Dunnocks have small territories, so it was possi

49、ble to measure the amount of human disturbanee in a given territory with reas on able precisi on. And, by wrapp ing each of the dunno cks in the garde n with colour-coded bands it was possible to identify individuals by sight. Altogether, the researchers looked at 99 of them.They worked out a bird ?

50、s level of threat toleranee by the simple method of walking towards it, and the n measuri ng how close one could get before the bird flew away. They did this several times for each bird every breedi ng seas on, and repeated the process over the course of three seasons.A particular bird ?s flight dis

51、tanee （ie, how closely it could be approached before it departed） was, they found, con siste nt with in a breed ing seas on. From seas on to seas on most birds got alittle bolder probably as they lear nt more about the world and what they could safely get away with. But this in crease in bold ness w

52、ith age was small compared with the differe nt start ing points of bold and shy birds when they first arrived in a territory. It did not, therefore, much affect the fact that, on average, bird s?flight distances were inversely correlated （负相关）withthe level of human disturbanee in their territories.

53、This was a consequenee of disturbed territories being settled by bold birds, and un disturbed territories by shy on es.In the case of dunn ocks, the n, n ature wins over nurture. Dr. Holtma nn was able to show that pers on alities match circumsta nces, rather tha n being created by them. Dunno cks c

54、an recog nize which places suit them best, and choose to settle in them shortly after they are fully fledged （ 羽 翼丰满）.Most likely, that is happening in London districts, too.60. What does the un derl ined words that gap” n the sec ond paragraph refer to?A. What the paper published in 2015 failed to

55、han dle.B. Why extroverts favour certa in areas in London district.C. How Dr. Holtma nn in volved dunno cks in his study.D. What the former and latter study have in com mon.61.

It ? nurture rather than nature that matters in the case of dunnocks?behaviour.B. Bird s?flight distances were in proportion to human disturbanee in their territories.C. Dunno ck

57、s choose their habitats wisely in the first place rather tha n adapt to them.D. Bold birds and shy birds alike settle in un disturbed territories in the bota nic garde n.63. What is the author ? purpose in writing the passage?A. To argue that circumsta nces cultivate certa in pers on alities.B. To en terta in readers with some funny facts about dunn ocks.C. To prese nt the finding of a scie ntific research about dunn ocks.D. To con firm the assumpti on that pers on alitie
