3.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.(36)DWell,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.
(37)FPeople 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.
(38)EAnything 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.
(39)B
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 sychology at the University of British Columbia in Canada,found tht in countries as diverse as Canada,South Africa and Uganda,giving away money consistently made people happier.(40)G

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.

分析 本文講述了金錢和幸福的關系,錢不一定能買到幸福,但是錢對于窮人來說就是幸福的一部分.

解答 DFEBG
36.D 考查細節(jié)理解以及上下文聯(lián)系.根據后面的"Well,not true.People with higher incomes are happier than those who struggle to get by."可知,這里是對"金錢不能買到快樂"產生質疑.故選D.
37.F 考查細節(jié)理解以及上下文聯(lián)系.根據"but they actually provide both more happiness and more lasting value that help you better manage your life."可知,人們傾向于使用物質產品.故選F.
38.E 考查細節(jié)理解以及上下文聯(lián)系.根據"Buying small things can give us frequent small pleasures that are different each time they occur,as they forestall(搶先)adaptation."可知,人們通過買小物品來滿足自己的購買欲.故選E.
39.B 考查細節(jié)理解以及上下文聯(lián)系.根據"It's also important to consider how what you're buying will affect how you spend your time"可知,本段要講的是爭取時間的重要性.故選B.
40.G 考查細節(jié)理解以及上下文聯(lián)系.根據前面的"giving away money consistently made people happier"可知,花錢至少對于窮人來說是快樂的.故選G.

點評 七選五"這樣的題型,主要目的在于"考查考生對文章的整體內容和結構以及上下文邏輯意義的理解和掌握.解題時最主要的兩個步驟就是1.理清文章的邏輯和結構,2.在所給的原文中找出關鍵詞或者說是線索詞.文章的整體思路能幫助你在答案中篩選出符合邏輯的選項,關鍵詞則能幫助你確定更多的細節(jié),排除相近的選項.這些技巧多練練就能孰能生巧.

11.Why does gratitude matter?
Gratitude doesn't just feel good.(36)DLike other positive emotions,feeling grateful on a regular basis can have a big effect on our lives.Brain Research shows that positive emotions are good for our bodies,minds,and brains.
Positive emotions help us see more possibilities and take in more information.They increase our ability to develop skills.(37)E
Positive emotions balance negative emotions out.People who often feel grateful and appreciative are happier,less stressed,and less depressed.Gratitude is like a U-turn on complaining or thinking about what we don't have.(38)BWhen we feel grateful,we might also feel happy,calm,joyful,or glad.
Gratitude can lead to positive actions.When we feel grateful for someone's kindness towards us,we may be more likely to do a kindness in return.(39)GThanking people can make it more likely that they'll do a kindness again.
(40)CWhen we feel and express heartfelt gratitude and appreciation to people in our lives,it creates loving bonds,builds trust,and helps you feel closer.
When we make it a habit to feel grateful and appreciative,it increases our awareness of good things as they happen.That set of attitude of gratitude has positive effects on our mood.

A.It might make you suffer a lot.
B.One positive emotion often leads to another.
C.Gratitude helps us build better relationships.
D.Making a habit of gratitude can also be good for us.
