20、, when my sickness was more manageable, I enjoyed ten years as a professional (专业的) singer in restaurants, playing and singing folk songs. Unfortunately that was years ago and times have changed. Now I live with my mother on a country farm.Two years ago, I decided that I would need to have some kind
21、 of extra work to make up for my disability pension (残疾抚恤金). As I needed to sleep in the afternoons, I was limited in my choices. I decided that I would consider going back to singing in restaurants. My family are all musicians, so I was recognized when I went into our local music store. I explained
22、 that I wanted to sing again but using recorded karaoke music. I knew that discs were very expensive and I really didnt have a lot of money to get started.

He placed his large hand lovingly on his treasure and said, “I have 800 karaoke songs in here. You can take you
24、r pick and Ill record them for you. That should get you started.”I could have cried. Thanking him, I made a time with him to listen to all the songs and choose the ones that I could sing.

29、l on your thought process, which often has negative results disturbing the mental peace. Basically, your mind starts wandering here and there.

38、y the older they get? If you answered more happy, then you were right. Based on a study in 2008, it found that people generally become happier and experience less worry after age fifty. In fact, it found that by the age of eighty-five, people are happier with their life than they were at eighteen.Th
39、e findings came from a Callup survey of more than three hundred forty thousand adults in the United States in 2008. At that time, the people were between the ages of eighteen and eighty-five. Arthur Stone in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Science at Stony Brook University in New York le
40、d the study. His team found that levels of stress were highest among adults between the ages of twenty-two and twenty-five. Stress levels dropped sharply after people reached their fifties. Happiness was highest among the youngest adults and those in their early seventies. But the people least likel
41、y to report feeling negative emotions were those in their seventies and eighties.The survey also found that men and women have similar emotional patterns as they grow older. However, women at all ages reported more sadness, stress and worry than men did.The researchers also considered possible influ
42、ences like having young children, being unemployed or being single. But they found that influences like these did not affect the levels of happiness and well-being related to age.So why would happiness increase with age? One theory is that, as people get older, they become more thankful for what the
43、y have and have better control of their emotions. They also spend less time thinking about bad experiences.The findings appeared in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. 63. What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To compare the levels of happiness among different group of adults.B

47、otional. D. The older, the happier. DHow long are you willing to wait for a webpage to open before you start to lose your patience? Half a minute? A few seconds?Google engineers have discovered that even 400 millisecondsas short as the blink of an eyeis too long for most Internet users.A millisecond
48、 is one thousandth of a second. People hardly notice such a small time difference, but it does cause them to stop searching, reported The New York Times.“Subconsciously, you dont like to wait,” said Arvind Jain, a Google engineer. “Every millisecond matters.”Nowadays, millions of smart-phones and co
49、mputers are constantly gathering and sending out information. With so many people downloading maps, sports videos, news and restaurant recommendations, you can get digital “traffic jams”. Meanwhile, users are expecting faster and faster service.Google found that if one website is 250 milliseconds sl
50、ower than another website, then people will visit it less often. This is why technology companies are now competing to be the fastest.Google said people do expect different things from different websites because they realize not all loading times are the same. For example, a person will be more pati
51、ent waiting for a video clip to load than for a search result.Even so, four out of five online users will click away if a video takes too long to load. This makes it difficult for video websites to choose between the quality of pictures and fast loading times.Pursuing a higher speed has always been
52、part of the history of the Internet.In the 1990s, when the World Wide Web first started to become popular, it was very crowded and slow; people called it the “World Wide Wait”.
