    One fine day recently, he went    a walk in the countryside, but as      he has a book in his hand. When he went out , he began to read his book . He hadn’t gone far    he run into a big cow and fell down. In the fall, he had lost his glasses, without which he couldn’t see anything. He thought he had hit his head    a fat lady. “I’m sorry, Madam.” He said politely      searching for his glasses. As soon as he had     , he realized his mistake.

Soon he was fixing his mind on his book       and paid no attention to anything else. He had scarcely been walking for five minutes when he fell over again,        both his book and his glasses. This time he got very angry, seizing his umbrella, he gave the “cow” a wild blow. Then, after finding his glasses, he realized with horror that he made a second mistake. A large fat woman was fleeing from him in a horror.

NOT all memories are sweet. Some people -- all their lives trying to forget bad experiences. Violence and traffic accidents can leave people with terrible physical and emotional scars (伤痕).
Now American researchers think they are close to developing a pill, which will help people forget bad memories. The pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening experience. They hope it might reduce, or possibly erase, the effect of painful memories.
In November, experts tested a drug on people in the US and France. The drug stops the body producing chemicals that fix memories in the brain (大脑). So far the research has suggested that only the emotional effects of memories may be reduced, not that the memories are erased.
The research has caused a great deal of discussion. Some think it is a bad idea, while others support it.
Supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers' troubling memories after war. They say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories.
"Some memories can destroy people's lives. They come back to you when you don't want to have them in a daydream or nightmare (噩梦). They usually come with very painful emotions," said Roger Pitman, a professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. "This could relieve a lot of that suffering."
But those who are against the research say that changing memories is very dangerous because memories give us our identity (特质). They also help us all avoid the mistakes of the past.
"All of us can think of bad events in our lives that were horrible at the time but make us who we are. I'm not sure we want to wipe those memories out, "said Rebecca Dresser, a medical ethicist.
【小题1】The passage is mainly about          

A.a new medical invention
B.a new research on the pill
C.a way of erasing painful memories
D.a discussion about the research on the pill
【小题2】The drug tested on people can           
A.cause the brain to fix memories
B.stop people remembering bad experiences
C.prevent body producing certain chemicals
D.erase the emotional effects of memories
【小题3】We can infer from the passage that            
A.people doubt the effects of the pills
B.the pill will stop people's bad experiences
C.taking the pill will do harm to people's health
D.the pill has probably been produced in America
【小题4】Which of the following does Rebecca Dresser agree with?
A.Some memories can destroy people's lives.
B.People want to remove bad memories.
C.Experiencing bad events makes us different from others.
D.The pill will reduce people's sufferings from bad memories.

Old age may not sound exciting. But recent findings offer good news for older people and for people worried about getting older. Researchers found that people become happier and experience less worry after they reach the age of 50. In fact, they say by the age of 85, people are happier with their life than they were when they were 18 years old.
The findings came from a survey of more than 340,000 adults in the United States. The Gallup Organization questioned them by telephone in 2008. At that time, the people were between the ages of 18 and 85. The researchers asked questions about emotions like happiness, sadness and worry. They also asked about mental or emotional stress.
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 24 and 25. The findings showed that stress levels dropped sharply after people reached their fifties.
The study also showed that men and women have similar feeling patterns as they grow older. However, women at all ages reported more sadness, stress and worry than men.
Researchers say they do not know why happiness increases as people get older. One theory is that, as people grow older, they grow more thankful for what they have and have better control of their feelings. They so spend less time thinking about bad experiences.
Professor Stone says the emotional patterns could be linked to changes in how people see the world, or maybe even changes in brain chemistry.
The researchers also considered possible influences 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.
【小题1】According to the survey of the Gallup Organization people are most likely to become happier      .

A.when they are between the ages of 18 and 85B.when they come to their old age
C.when they are in their twentiesD.when they are 18 years old
【小题2】You may have the highest level of stress when you are at the age of      .
A.20B.25C.35D.40
【小题3】According to Arthur Stone, old people may      .
A.have a positive attitude towards their lifeB.know how to spend money wisely
C.dream about good things every dayD.control their behaviors better
【小题4】Who would probably show the greatest interest in the passage?
A.Those who are worried about getting oldB.Those who are single and unemployed
C.Those who feel unhappy all the timeD.Those who suffer from mental stress
【小题5】What would be the best title for the passage?
A.Getting Older Means Getting HappierB.The Young Are Happier Than the Old
C.Women Are Easier to Be Happy in LifeD.The Younger, the Happier
