【題目】根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容的理解，選擇正確答案。 For many people. Leisure time is an opportunity to get outdoors, have some fun and meet interesting people. Add two pieces of advanced 21st century technology—global positioning system (GPS) devices and the Internet—to get "geocaching".
The word geocaching comes from "geo" (earth) and "cache" (hidden storage). Geocachers log onto a website to find information about the location of a cache—usually a waterproof plastic box containing small items such as toys and CDs—along with a notebook where "finders" can enter comments and learn about the cache "owner", the person who created and hid the cache. Finders may take any of the items in the cache but are expected to replace them with something of similar value. They then visit the website again and write a message to the owner.
Geocaching became possible on May 1,2000, when a satellite system developed by the U.S. Department of Defense was made public. Using an inexpensive GPS device, anyone on earth can send a signal to the satellites and receive information about their position. This is basically a high-tech version of orienteering, the traditional pastime which uses maps and compasses instead of GPS to determine one's location.
Geocachers are a very considerate group. Owners carefully choose a cache's location to give finders an enjoyable experience, such as a beautiful view or a good campsite. They also consider the environmental impact of their cache since it could result in an increased number of visitors to an area. As for the content of the caches, owners and finders must only use items that are suitable for the whole family, as caches are found by geocachers of all ages.
（1）According to the passage, geocaching is _______.
A.an outdoor leisure activity
B.a new type of technology
C.a game used to teach geography
D.a program to protect environment
（2）How can finders learn about the cache owners?
A.By meeting them.
B.By going to a website.
C.From the notebook.
D.From the satellite.
（3）Which of the following is NOT used in geocaching?
A.A GPS device.
B.A compass.
C.A plastic container.
D.The Internet.
（4）Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A.Most geocachers are adults.
B.Any item can be placed in the caches.
C.The caches should be put in a remote place.
D.Geocachers try to avoid damaging the environment.

【答案】
（1）A
（2）C
（3）B
（4）D
【解析】文章主要介紹了一種新型的geocaching，是增添了互聯(lián)網(wǎng)和GPS定位系統(tǒng)，是一種戶外的休閑活動。
（1）A推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段, leisure time is an opportunity to get outdoors, have some fun and meet interesting people.可知下文提到的 geocaching 是一種戶外的休閑活動，故選A。
（2）C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段along with a notebook where "finders" can enter comments and learn about the cache "owner"可知尋寶者可以通過"筆記本"來了解寶藏的主人，故選C。
（3）B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段Add two pieces of advanced 21st century technology — global positioning system (GPS) devices and the Internet — to get "geocaching". 和第二段usually a waterproof plastic box containing small items such as toys and CDs 可知它使用了"GPS定位系統(tǒng)，互聯(lián)網(wǎng)，塑料制的盒子"，所以A，C，D選項(xiàng)都符合，而B選項(xiàng)"指南針"并沒有提到，故選B。
（4）D推理判斷題。根據(jù).最后一段They also consider the environmental impact of their cache since it could result in an increased number of visitors to an area.可知他們還考慮了對環(huán)境的影響，因此D選項(xiàng)說Geocachers 盡量避免對環(huán)境的破壞符合，故選D。

A new article in The Wall Street Journal has given us a deeper understanding of the relationship between what we earn and how we feel.Well,not true.People with higher incomes are happier than those who struggle to get by.To put a smile on your face with your money,you need to spend it strategically.Here are some ways to better spend your bank notes.
Buy experiences,not material things.
People think that experiences are only going to provide temporary happiness,but they actually provide both more happiness and more lasting value that help you better manage your life.

Anything you buy,including a product you think is special will become just another object.Buying small things can give us frequent small pleasures that are different each time they occur,as they forestall（搶先）adaptation.

It's also important to consider how what you're buying will affect how you spend your time.For example,you may have to spend a very long time on the road if you get a big house in the suburb,which will totally lower overall life satisfaction.
Try giving it away.
Elizabeth Dunn,associate professor of psychology at the University of British Columbia in Canada,found that in countries as diverse as Canada,South Africa and Uganda,giving away money consistently made people happier. A.Buy what you like.
B.Be sure to buy time,too.
C.More money,more smiles?
D.Money can't buy happiness,right?
E.Buy lots of little things,rather than one big thing.
F.With no much money to spare,people tend to stick to material goods.
G.This was even true for people who were ly poor themselves.

【題目】根據(jù)短文理解，選擇正確答案。
People who have lost the ability to understand or use words due to brain damage are called aphasics（失語癥患者）.Such patients can be extremely good at something else.From the changing expressions on speakers' faces and the tones of their voices,they can tell lies from truths.
Doctors studying the human brain have given a number of examples of this amazing power of aphasics.Some have even compared this power to that of a dog with an ability to find out the drugs hidden in the baggage.
Recently,scientists carried out tests to see if all that was said about aphasics was true.They studied a mixed group of people.Some were normal;others were aphasics.It was proved that the aphasics were far ahead of the normal people in recognizing false speeches—in most cases,the normal people were fooled by words,but the aphasics were not.
Some years ago,Dr.Oliver Sacks wrote in his book about his experiences with aphasics.He mentioned a particular case in a hospital.Some aphasics were watching the president giving a speech on TV.Since the president had been an actor earlier,making a good speech was no problem for him.He was trying to put his feelings into every word of his speech.
But his way of speaking had the opposite effect on the patients.They didn't seem to believe him.Instead,they burst into laughter.The aphasics knew that the president did not mean a word of what he was saying.He was lying!
Many doctors see aphasics as people who are not completely normal because they lack the ability to understand words.However,according to Dr.Sacks,they are more gifted than normal people.Normal people may get carried away by words.Aphasics seem to understand human expressions better,though they cannot understand words.
（1）What is so surprising about aphasics?
A.They can fool other people.
B.They can tell whether people are lying.
C.They can understand language better.
D.They can find out the hidden drugs.
（2）How did the scientists study aphasics?
A.By asking them to watch TV together.
B.By organizing them into acting groups.
C.By comparing them with normal people.
D.By giving them chances to speak on TV.
（3）What do we learn from this text?
A.What ones says reflects how one feels.
B.Aphasics have richer feelings than others.
C.Normal people often tell lies in their speeches.
D.People poor at one thing can be good at another.
