18、h.

Bounce paddled frantically (疯狂似地) toward the sho
19、re. Then the alligator turned around and sank its teeth into Gustafsons right hand. “I screamed at the top of my lungs,” he says. “I thought I was in trouble.” Gustafson was able to free his hand when the beast opened its jaws again. With his injured hand, Gustafson hit the animal and pulled its hea
20、d underwater. “I yelled at Bounce reminding her to get to the shore, but she was exhausted. If I didnt get to her quickly, she was going under,” he recalls (回忆). When Gustafson released the alligator, it swam away. He grabbed (抓住) Bounce, climbed out of the pond, and carried the dog up the hill to t
21、he house. Since the event, Bounce has been subdued (顺从的) and stayed close to home.

If you answered more happy, then you were right, based on a study in 2008. It found that people generall
24、y become happier and experience less worry after age 50. In fact, it found that by the age of 85, people are happier with their life than they were at 18.The findings came from a Gallup survey of more than 340,000 adults in the United States in 2008. At that time, the people were between the ages of
25、 18 and 85. Arthur Stone in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Science at Stony Brook University in New York led the study. His team found that levels of stress were highest among adults between the ages of 22 and 25. Stress levels dropped sharply after people reached their 50s.Happiness wa
26、s highest among the youngest adults and those in their early 70s. But the people least likely to report feeling negative emotions were those in their 70s and 80s.So why would happiness increase with age? One theory is that, as people get older, they become more thankful for what they have and have b
27、etter control of their emotions. They also spend less time thinking about bad experiences.Happiness is not the only thing that apparently improves with age. In another study this year, people in their 80s reported the fewest problems with the quality of their sleep.The original goal was to confirm t

40、o an end next year, which will suddenly give 29 million people the right to live and work unrestricted in Britain. Predictions of how many will actually emigrate (移民) from both countries range from 250,000 within five years to 425,000 within two years, reports the Guardian. One method of discourage
41、would-be immigrants may be to convince them that they dont want to come to Britain at all. Government ministers are reportedly considering a negative ad campaign that focuses on the downsides of British life, in order to “correct the impression that the streets here are covered with gold,” the Guard
42、ian reports one government official as saying.Theres been no indication yet of what such a campaign would look like whether it would focus on the benefits of staying in their countries or make Britain look as unpleasant as possible. The Guardian invited its readers to send in their own suggestions f
43、or poster designs, and the results are very unpleasant bad weather, racial violence, too much drinking, and unreliable public transport.But a negative ad campaign flies in the face of the billions of pounds Britain spent on last summers Olympics partly to build the countrys good reputation.
