11、黑。 A I live in Hollywood. You may think people in such an attractive, fun-filled place are happier than others. If so, you have some mistaken ideas about the nature of happiness.Many intelligent people still equate happiness with fun. The truth is that fun and happiness have little or nothing in com
12、mon. Fun is what we experience during an act. Happiness is what we experience after an act. It is a deeper, more long-lasting emotion. Going to an amusement park or ball game, watching a movie or television, are fun activities that help us relax, temporarily forget our problems and maybe even laugh.
13、 But they do not bring happiness, because their positive effects end when the fun ends.I have often thought that if Hollywood stars have a role to play, it is to teach us that happiness has nothing to do with fun. These rich, beautiful individuals have constant access to exciting parties, fancy cars
14、, expensive homes, everything that spells “happiness”. But in memoir(回忆录) after memoir, celebrities reveal the unhappiness hidden beneath all their fun: depression, alcoholism, drug addiction, broken marriages, troubled children, and long-time loneliness.The way people hold on to the belief that a f
15、un-filled, pain-free life equates happiness actually decreases their chances of ever attaining real happiness. If fun and pleasure are equated with happiness, then pain must be equated with unhappiness. But, in fact, the opposite is true: More times than not, things that lead to happiness involve so
16、me pain.As a result, many people avoid the very efforts that are the source of true happiness. They fear the pain inevitably brought by such things as marriage, raising children, professional achievement, religious commitment, charitable work and self-improvement.21. According to the passage, “fun a
17、ctivities” _. A. are the things we do before we find happiness B. may help us relax and forget our problems sometimes C. will lead us to the true happiness D. could provide long-last positive effects22. In the authors opinion, those Hollywood stars _.A. possess happiness because they are rich and fa
18、mous B. experience almost all kinds of happy thingsC. tell us happiness isnt equal to fun using their own storiesD. have to suffer a lot before they become successful23. It is difficult for people to find real happiness because _. A. they believe happiness is the fun life without pain B. they find p
19、ain equals unhappiness C. they fear to lose what they already have in life D. They are afraid all their efforts were in vain24. The main purpose of the text is to _. A. describe the difference between happiness and fun B. show the true meaning of happiness C. encourage people to pursue fun activitie

29、irst aid.The very first thing that you should do when you see an accident is to evaluate the situation and prevent further dangerous incidents. First of all, you have to recognize what has happened and what the dangers to rescuers and victims are. Think about how to take care of the victims.Helping
30、usually takes place in very difficult conditions and injuries can be very bad. Therefore, you cannot be too afraid of making mistakes to help. Sometimes you have to face the fact that regardless of your actions and your efforts the victims condition might not improvehe or she could even die. In some
31、 cases even professional medical aid may not succeed. If you have done everything you think you should do, you shouldnt feel guilty.Do not expose yourself to danger. Giving first aid can be dangerous. While trying to help a victim, do not forget about your own safety. If something happens to you, yo
32、u wont be able to help anyone.Call for help after you find out the condition of a victim.

But when it comes to brains, is bigger always better? Traditionally, scientists have thought that human superior intelligence derived(源于)mostly fr
37、om the fact that our brains are three times bigger than those of our nearest living relatives, chimpanzees. People even used to believe that because men have slightly larger brains than women that men are smarter. This, however, is not the truth. Scientists at University College London in the UK hav
38、e found that brain organization, and not brain size, is the key to the superiority of human intelligence, reported Live Science. Through millions of years of evolution, our ancestors were constantly pushed to get smarter so that they could meet the demands of new environments. However, holding this
39、growing intelligence in increasingly large brains was not the best choice because bigger brains require more energy to power. “This is when reorganization may come into play, ”said Christophe Soligo, a member of the London research team. In the study, scientists looked at the brains of 17 species of
40、 primates(灵长目动物), including monkeys, apes and humans. They found that in the process of evolution, brains didnt keep growing as a whole. Certain regions of the brain grew prior to others in response to species needs, and in this way they could make the best use of their limited brain space. For exam
41、ple, when early humans were struggling to survive, the brain region in charge of using tools and finding food grew in size more than other regions. But in modern times, the prefrontal cortex(前额皮质)the region in charge of social cognition (认知), moral judgments and goal-directed planninggrew more than
42、the rest of the brain. Think of the brain as a room. If a big room is poorly organized, it doesnt necessarily store more stuff than a smaller one. Paul Manger, professor at the University of the Witwatersrand, South Africa, explains this principle using the example of whales. He told Scientific Amer
43、ican: “Whales have big brains, absolutely. But if you look at the actual structure of the brain, its not very complex. Brain size only matters if the rest of the brain is organized properly. ”32. It has recently been found that humans are smarter than the other animals mainly because_. A. they are a
44、 species of primates B. they have much larger brains C. their brain structure is more complex D. they were constantly pushed to get smarter33. According to the article, in recent human evolution, _ . A. the brain kept growing in size to adapt to new environments B. most regions of the brain didnt ch
45、ange C. the prefrontal cortex grew more than the rest of the brain D. humans brains became increasingly simple so that humans could survive34. What can we conclude from the article? A. Gender makes a difference in intelligence. B. The size of the brain has nothing to do with intelligence. C. Species
46、 whose brain is organized properly tend to be smarter. D. Larger brains are usually organized better than smaller ones. 35. The method the writer uses to develop the last paragraph is _ . A. by presenting research data B. by giving examples C. by making a comparison D. by analyzing cause and effect第

48、where that you use for another purpose. For example, you always study at the desk, but when you sit on a sofa to study, your brain will think it is time to relax. Before sitting down to study, bring together all the equipment you need. 38 If your study desk or table is needed when you are not studyi
