B A global survey of charitable giving conducted on 135 nations might give us a renewed sense of faith in humanity. The World Giving Index 201
40、4 examined whether people donated money to a charity, volunteered their time to an organization or offered assistance to someone they didnt know who needed help. About 2.3 billion people worldwide reported helping a stranger over the course of one month last year, and over 1.4 billion donated money
41、to charitable causes in 2013. It may not be surprising that the United States, one of the wealthiest countries in the world, came on top as the most generous nation. What is astonishing is that the accolade （荣誉）was shared with Myanmar, a nation ranking 151 spots lower than the U.s. on the GDP per ca
42、pita scale. In fact, the report found that a nations economic prosperity doesnt automatically translate to generosity. Only five of the countries in this years World Giving Index Top 20 are members of the G20, a forum of the worlds largest economies. Less wealthy places like Sri Lanka and Trinidad a
43、nd Tobago featured in the top 10. Other factors, like following a religious philosophy or responding to a natural disaster, were found to be major drivers of donations. Myanmar earned its top place mainly due to the fact that nearly all of the respondents, 91%, donated money to charity, a practice w
44、hich is rooted in the countrys Theravada Buddhist community. Another high-ranking country with a large population of the followers of that religion is Sri Lanka, which ranked ninth in the Index. Malaysias high jump in the ranking, from 71st place to 7th, was attributed to the outpouring of the human
45、itarian aid after the destructive Typhoon Haiyan hit the neighboring Philippines. In Africa, Kenya has moved 18 places up this year, ranking 15th in the global index. Its the most charitable country in the continent, ahead of larger economies like Nigeria, which is in the 21st place, and South Afric
46、a with rank 34th. Africans are also three times more likely to extend a helping hand to strangers than donate money or volunteer, which seems to show that are more likely to show their generosity through community support than formalized channels. From a global perspective, the report concludes that
47、 the diverse nature of the top giving countries signals that regardless of geography or culture, people universally appear to respond to those in need.58. Which of the following is NOT the factor contributing to peoples generosity? A. A nations economic prosperity. B. A religious philosophy. C. The
48、response to a natural disaster. D. The requirement of the government.59. The author may agree with the following versions EXCEPT that_. A. Kenya is the most charitable country in the continent of Africa. B. Africans tend to show their generosity through formalized channels. C. Malaysia ranks higher
49、this year due to its abunsant aid to Philippines. D. many people in Myanmar and Sri Lanka share the same religious philosophy.60. Which of the following shows the correct order of the countries in the World Giving Index? A. Kenya-Tobago-Nigeria-Myanmar. B. America-Tobago-Nigeria-Trinidad. C. Myanmar
50、-Malaysia-Kenya-Nigeria. D. Sri Lanka-Kenya-South Africa-Trinidad.61. The passage mainly tells us that_. A. America took the lead in charitable giving. B. People have more faith in humanity nowadays. C. most people are willing to lend a hard when necessary. D. Some poor countries are more likely to
51、show their generosity.CBiologists believe that love is fundamentally a biological rather than a cultural construct, because the capacity for love is found in all human cultures and similar behavior is found in some other animals. In humans the purpose of all the desire is to focus attention on the r
52、aising of offspring. Children demand an unusual amount of parenting, and two parents are better than one. Love is a signal that both partners are committed, and makes it more likely that this commitment will continue as long as necessary for children to reach independence. But what does science have
53、 to say about the notion of love at first sight?In recent years the ability to watch the brain in action has offered a wealth of insight into the mechanics of love. Researchers have shown that when a person falls in love, a dozen different part of brain work together to release chemicals that trigge
54、r feelings of euphoria, bonding and excitement. It has also been shown that the unconditional love between a mother and a child is associated with activity in different regions of the brain from those associated with pair-bonding love.Passionate love is rooted in the reward circuitry of the brainthe
55、 same area that is active when humans feel a rush from cocaine. In fact, the desire, motivations and withdrawals involved in love have a great deal in common with addiction. Its most intense forms tend to be associated with the early stages of a relationship, which then give way to a calmer attachme
56、nt form of love one feels with a long term partner.What all this means is that one special person can become chemically rewarding to the brain of another. Love at first sight, then, is only possible if the mechanism for generating long-term attachment can be triggered quickly. There are signs that i
57、t can be. One line of evidence is that people are able to decide within a second how attractive they find another person. This decision appears to be related to facial attractiveness, although men may favor women with waist-to-hip ratio of 0.7, no matter what their overall weight is. (This ratio may
58、 indicate a womans reproductive health.)Another piece of evidence comes from work by a psychologist at Ben-Gurion University, who found in a survey that a small percentage (11%) of people in long-term relationships said that they began with love at first sight. In other words, in some couples the in
59、itial favorable impressions of attractiveness triggered love which sustained a lengthy bond. It is also clear that some couples need to form their bonds over a longer period, and popular culture tells many tales of friends who become lovers.One might also assume that if a person is looking for a par
60、tner with traits that cannot be quantified instantly, such as compassion, intellect or a good sense of humor, then it would be hard to form a relationship on the basis of love at first sight. Those more concerned with visual appearances, though, might find this easier. So it appears that love at fir
61、st sight exists, but is not a very common basis for long-term relationships.62. When a person falls in love,_.A. he feels as if he were addicted to cocaine.B. he will be committed to the beloved as long as necessary.C. he will experience complex feelings brought on by different regions of his brain.
62、D. he will experience a calmer attachment form of love before he feels the extreme love.63.We can infer from the passage that _.A. pair-bonding love comes from a long stable friendship.B. the mechanism for creating long-term attachment ensures love at first sightC. it is impossible for those ordinar
63、y-looking people to fall in love at first sight.D. men may be attracted by a girl whose figure suggests her admirable reproductive capacity.64. The underlined word “traits” in the last paragraph probably means _.A. characteristics B. something typical in your temperC. particular quantities in your p
64、ersonalityD. attitudes that show your moral standards65. Which of the following may be the best title of the passage?A. The stages of passionate loveB. The science of love at first sightC. The biological construct of pair-bondingD. The mechanism for generating long-term loveDErnest Hemingway was not
65、 only a commanding figure in 20th-century literature, but was also a pack rat. He saved even his old passports and used bullfight tickets, leaving behind one of the longest paper trails of any author.“Ernest Hemingway: Between Two Wars,” which opens on Friday at the Morgan Library & Museum, is the f
66、irst major museum exhibition devoted to Hemingway and his work. The largest and most interesting section focuses on the 20s, Hemingways Paris years, and reveals a writer we might have been in danger of forgetting: Hemingway before he became Hemingway.The exhibition does not fail to include pictures
67、of the bearded, manly, Hem. Hes shown posing with some kudu he has just shot in Africa and on the bridge of his beloved fishing boat,the Pilar, with Carlos Gutirrez, the fisherman who became the model for “The Old Man and the Sea.” But the first photo the viewer sees is a big blowup of a handsome, c
68、lean-shaven, 19-year-old standing on crutches. This is from the summer of 1918, when Hemingway was recovering from wounds at the Red Cross hospital in Milan and trying to turn his wartime experiences into fiction.The evidence at this exhibition suggests that, in the early days, he often wrote in pen
69、cil, mostly in cheap notebooks but sometimes on whatever paper came to hand. The first draft of the short story “Soldiers Home” was written on sheets he appeared to have snatched from a telegraph office. The impression you get is of a young writer seized by inspiration and sometimes barreling ahead
70、without an entirely clear sense of where he is going.F. Scott Fitzgerald (some of whose letters with Hemingway is also on view) famously urged him to cut the first two chapters of “The Sun Also Rises,” complaining about the “elephantine facetiousness” of the beginning, and Hemingway obliged, getting
71、 rid of a clunky opening that now seems almost “meta”. In 1929, in a nine-page penciled critique, Fitzgerald also suggested numerous revisions for “A Farewell to Arms.” Hemingway took some of these, but less graciously, and soon afterward his friendship with Fitzgerald came to an end.The papers at t
72、he Morgan show a Hemingway who is not always sure of himself. There are running lists of stories he kept fiddling with, and there are lists and lists of possible titles, including the 45 he considered for “Farewell” and 47 different endings for the novel.In display case after display case, you see H
73、emingway during his Paris years inventing and reinventing himself, discovering as he goes along just what kind of writer he wants to be. In a moving 1925 letter to his parents, who refused to read “In Our Time,” his second story collection, he writes: “You see Im trying in all my stories to get the
74、feeling of the actual life across not just to describe life or criticize it but to actually make it alive. So that when you have read something by me you actually experience the thing. You cant do this without putting in the bad and the ugly as well as what is beautiful.”By the time the Second World
75、 War broke out, Hemingway had solidified into the iconic figure we now remember: Papa. Even J. D. Salinger calls him this. And a blustery, cranky Hemingway appears in 1949 when aboard the Pilar he grabs an old fishing diary and begins scrawling an angry letter to Harold Ross, the editor of The New Y
76、orker, complaining about Alfred Kazins review of “Across the River and Into the Trees,” not, in truth, a very good book. But, Hemingway, often drinking and depressed, didnt know it, his best work was behind him by then.66. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined words “a pack
77、rat” (para. 1)?A. a person who doesnt waste anything B. a person who cannot be relied onC. a person who likes to collect rubbish D. a person who enjoys collecting things67. How many of Hemingways works are mentioned in this passage? A. 4 B. 5 C.6 D.768. We can conclude from the Morgan show that some
78、times Hemingway was a person . A. unconfident but full of inspirations B. stubborn but full of enthusiasm about love C. casual but full of heroism D. bad-tempered but full of strange habits69. What does the writer truly mean by saying “Hemingway before he became Hemingway”? A. Hemingway wrote many m
79、asterpieces before he killed himself. B. Hemingway was once a war correspondent before he became a famous writer. C. Hemingway devoted all his strengths to writing before he won the Nobel Prize. D. Hemingway kept exploring the world and adjusting himself before he became a commanding figure in liter
80、ature.70. According to the Morgan show, readers are likely to see in Hemingways works. tough men who cant be defeated anti-war fighters the dark side of the world as well as its beauty love affairs between a man and a woman the story of a family business A.

82、dy, which took on women aged 50 to 69 from 1996 to 2001, and tracked them with questionnaires and official records of death and hospital admissions. The questionnaires asked how often the women felt happy, in control, relaxed and stressed, and also instructed them to rate their health and list ailme
83、nts like high blood pressure, diabetes, depression or anxiety.When the answers were analyzed statistically, unhappiness and stress were not associated with an increased risk of death. It is not clear whether the findings apply to men.Professor Peto said particularly important data came from 500,000
84、women who reported that they were in good health, with no history of heart disease, cancer, or stroke. A minority of these healthy women said they were stressed or unhappy, he said, but over the next decade they were no more likely to die than were the women who were generally happy.“This finding re
85、futes（驳斥）the large effects of unhappiness and stress on deathrate that others have claimed,” Dr. Peto said. Unhappiness itself may not affect health directly, but it can do harm in other ways, by driving people to suicide, alcoholism or other dangerous behaviors, he warned.This type of study, in whi
86、ch people involved depends on their self-assessments, is not considered as reliable as a designed experiment where people involved are picked at random and assigned to a treatment or control group. But the huge number of people in this study gives it power. Still, some observers noted that measuring
87、 emotions is more nuanced（细微的）and complex than simply declaring happiness or unhappiness.“I would have liked to see more discussion of how people translate these complicated feelings into a self-report of happiness,” said Baruch Fischhoff, a psychologist at Carnegie Mellon University.The results of
88、earlier studies have been mixed, with some finding that unhappiness causes illness and others showing no link, Dr. Fischhoff said. “It looks to me like people have collected a lot of data without finding a clear signal,” he said. However, an editorial accompanying the study in The Lancet noted that
89、it had the largest population so far in happiness studies and praised its statistical methods. Professor Peto said he doubted whether the new study would change many minds because beliefs about the risks of unhappiness are so rooted. “People are still going to believe that stress causes heart attack
