48、likely to produce lasting happiness and satisfaction? Recent research has confirmed that experiential purchases tend to produce greater hedonic (享乐的）gains than material purchases.The reason why experiences improve with time may be because it is possible to think about experiences in a more abstract
49、manner than possessions. For example, if you think back to a fantastic summer from your youth, you might easily remember an abstract sense of warm sunshine and youthful exuberant (生气勃勃), but youre less likely to remember exactly what you did day-by-day.Material possessions are harder to think about
50、in an abstract sense. The car you bought is still a car, that great new jacket you picked up cheap is still just a jacket. Its more likely the experience of that summer has taken on a symbolic meaning that can live longer in your memory than a possession.Purchasing may have a negative impact on happ
51、iness because consumers often buy “joyless” material possessions, resulting in comfort but not pleasure. In general, people adapt to experiences more slowly than to material purchase. This can be seen in both negative and positive purchases: hedonic adaptation would result in a positive experience c
52、ausing more happiness but a negative experience causing less happiness than the comparable material purchase with the same initial happiness level.Experience, however, seems to be more resistant to these sorts of unfavourable comparisons. It is because of the unique nature of experience. Its more di
53、fficult to make an unfavourable comparison when there is nothing directly comparable. After all, each of our youthful summers is different.Its well established that social comparisons can have a huge effect on how we view what might seem like positive events. One striking example is the finding that
54、 people prefer to earn $50,000 a year while everyone else earns $25,000, instead of earning $100,000 themselves and having other people earn $200,000.A similar effect is seen for possessions. When there are so many flat-screen HD TVs to choose from, its easy to make unfavourable comparisons between
55、our choice and the others available.【文章解读】本文是一篇说明文。该文章主要介绍了现在流行的实验购物的优点和可行性。58.

60、nsumers often buy “joyless” material possessions, resulting in comfort but not pleasure可知购买实物后人们总是后悔自己的决定。故选C。CIn a unique research cooperation between Stratasys, Education, R&D departments and MITs Self-Assembly Lab, a new process is being developed, known as 4D Printing.The 4D printing concept, wh
61、ich allows materials to “self-assemble (自行组装)” into 3D structures, was initially proposed by Massachusetts Institute of Technology faculty member Skylar Tibbits. Tibbits and his team combined a strand (缕) of plastic with a layer made out of “smart” material that could self-assemble in water. They ad
62、vanced this concept by creating materials that can change into several different complicated shapes, though this kind of material remains the bottleneck of 4D technology.To many people that are just starting to get used to the idea of 3D printers, the name 4D is causing confusion because they cannot
63、 understand where this fourth “dimension” coming from. 4D technology shares many of the same principles of 3D printing and is essentially still about creating a new, 3D structure out of certain component; however, Tibbits states the fourth dimension at work here comes from concept of the fourth dime
64、nsion of time. The difference between these 3D and 4D creations is that these new forms have the ability to transform and adapt over time.4D printing works through self-assembly a system where “disordered elements form an “ordered” structure via an interaction. With these 4D printed materials, these
65、 disordered materials are strands or sheets of specially designed materials. Environmental changes then stimulate (刺激）a response from them so that they form a preprogrammed shape.The idea of having adaptable technology that only relies on energy and non-human interactions raises some interesting que
66、stions about where 4D printing can be used and the practical applications in dangerous environments. This could mean improved infrastructures in extreme conditions, leading to a reduced need for workers to put themselves at risk, but the potential goes even further than that. The technology promises
67、 exciting new possibilities for a variety of applications. A solar panel or similar product could be produced in a flat shape onto which functional devices can be easily installed. It could then be changed to a compact shape for packing and shipping. After arriving at its destination, the product co
68、uld be stimulated to form a different shape that serves its function. Also it could be used to build furniture, bikes, cars and even buildings. As with many of the ideas being put forward, it is easy to go a step too far into the extreme, but this just shows the potential of 4D in comparison to 3D.T
69、he next stage for the research is to move from printing single strands to sheets and eventually whole structures. And water need not be the process s only energy source.【文章解读】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍4D印刷术的优于3D印刷术。62. Which of the following displays the fourth dimension of 4D printing?A. 4D printing creates a n
