4.Teenagers at one German school are learning how to achieve happiness alongside subjects like maths and languages.
The class sit in a circle with their eyes shut and count from one to ten:one begins,the next voice comes from the far right,a third from the other side.The aim is to listen for an opportunity to shout the number without clashing(沖突) with another voice or leaving a pause.On the first try,most of the young Germans try to be first,while a few are too shy to join in.But by the fifth round,they develop a rhythm.
The message:giving other people space but also confidently claiming your own space is a requirement for social well-being.
While the game suggests a soft course for the less bright,the school says it is trying to make it affect even clever pupils.The Willy Hellpach School is the first in the nation to develop a happiness course,intended for 17-19-year-olds preparing for university-entrance exams."The course isn't there to make you happy,"Ernst Fritz-Schubert,the school principal,warned the pupils who were taking the course,"but rather to help you discover the ways to become happy."Cooking a meal together will be one of the class exercises,along with improving body language under the guidance of two professional actresses.
"In the first period,we had to each say something positive about another member of the class and about ourselves.No laughing at people or teasing,"said Fanny,17.
The message:self-esteem(自尊) improves happiness too.
The course is taught for three periods a week and will be graded as a part of overall assessment.Despite the happy subject,the pupils themselves insist it is no laughing matter.Max,18,says he is happy when he finds people who share his interests.Janina,18,says she needs to be fit to feel happy.
"We want to show how proper food or exercise can help in becoming happy,"the principal said.He hopes other schools in Germany will copy the idea.The school has attracted national interest since it announced its new course.

44.What would be the best title of this passageC?
A.Basic Things for Happiness. B.Tips to Be Happy.
C.Learning How to Be Happy.  D.Laughing a Lot at School.
45.Why is the happiness course compared with maths and languagesA?
A.It has been developed as a school subject. 
B.It is more important than traditional courses.
C.It is part of the research. 
D.It arouses the students'interest.
46.Who are expected to take the course at the schoolD?
A.First year students. 
B.All the students.
C.Students with mental problems. 
D.Students who are going to graduate.
47.Which of the following is NOT true about the happiness classesC?
A.Students learn through playing games. 
B.Cooking a meal together is a class activity.
C.Students are only made to be happy.
D.Students say positive things about each other.

12.Things Your Pilot Won't Tell You
You may not be getting the airline you paid for.
You may go to an airline website and buy a ticket,and get onto an airplane that has a similar name painted on it,but half the time,you're really on a regional (地方的) airline.The regionals aren't held to the same safety standards as the majors:their pilots aren't required to have as much training and experience,and the public doesn't know that.
-Captain at a major airline
If you're a nervous flier,book a morning flight.
The heating of the ground later causes bumpier (顛簸的) air,and it's much more likely to thunderstorm in the afternoon.
-Jerry Johnson,pilot,Los Angeles
The smoothest place to sit is often over or near the wing.
The bumpiest place to sit is in the back.If you're in the middle,you don't move as much.
-Patrick Smith,pilot,and author of Cockpit Confidential
Sit in the front if you want fresher air.
The general flow of air in any airplane is from front to back.So if you're really concerned about breathing the freshest possible air or not getting too hot,sit as close to the front as you can.Planes are generally warmest in the back.
-Tech pilot at a regional airline,Texas
You never know where the safest seat is.
There is no safest place to sit.In one accident,the people in the back are dead; in the next,it's the people up front.
-John Nance,aviation safety analyst and retired airline captain,Seattle
I've been struck by lightning twice.
Most pilots have.Airplanes are built to take it.You hear a big boom and see a big flash and that's it.You're not going to fall out of the sky.
-Charlotte,pilot for a regional earner,.North Carolina
People don't understand why they can't use their cell phones.
Well,what can happen is 12 people will decide to call someone just before landing,and I can get a false reading on my instruments saying that we are higher than we ideally are.
-Jim Tilmon,retired American Airlines pilot,Phoenix
56.Jerry Johnson advises nervous fliers toB.
A.sit in the back                          
B.fly in the morning
C.fly with major airlines                   
D.a(chǎn)void flying in bad weather
57.The best seats for those who need fresh air areA.
A.in the front     B.in the middle      C.in the back  D.near the wing
