    I moved to this area seven years ago. For years I have had noisy neighbours. Ever since I moved into this flat, I’ve had to put up with noise during the night. I decided I’d had enough and I’ve been looking for a new flat since the beginning of the year. I haven’t found anything till now. Every week I go to the estate agent’s（当地房地产代理人的）office, but it’s the same story. “I might have something by the end of the week” he says, or, “Wait till next week. I think I might have a few flats by then.” I’ve seen a few flats during my search, but I don’t like any of them. One flat I saw has been empty for two years. “It’s got a busy road on one side and a railway on the other!” I said loudly, “I want peace and quiet.” Last week I visited the agent again. “I won’t leave till you show me something,” I said. “I’ve got just the flat for you.” I went to see it and I was frightened. “But it’s next to a cemetery!” I cried. “But you won’t have noisy neighbours,” my agent said. “It’s exactly right for peace and quiet!”

    There is probably no field of human activity in which our values and lifestyles are shown more clearly and strongly than they are in theclothes that we choose to wear．The dress of an individual is a kind of “sign language” that communicates a set of information and is usually the basis on which immediate impressions are formed．Traditionally, a concern for clothes was considered to be an affair of females，while men took pride in the fact that they were completely lacking clothes consciousness．
    This type of American culture is gradually changing as man’s dress takes on greater variety  and color．Even as early as 1955，a research in Michigan said that men considered that the value of clothing in daily life was very important．White—collar workers in particular viewed dress as a symbol of ability，which could be used to impress or influence others，especially in the work situation．The white-collar worker was described as extremely concerned about the impression his clothing made on his boss．Although blue-collar workers were less aware that they might be judged on the basis of their clothing，they recognized that any difference from the accepted pattern of  dress would be made fun of by fellow workers．
    Since that time，of course，the patterns have changed，the typical white-collar worker may now be wearing the blue shirt，while the blue-collar may be wearing a white shirt，but the importance of dress has not become less. Other researchers in recent years have helped to prove its importance in the lives of individuals at various age levels and in different social and economic status groups.
    小题1:The passage tells us that       .
    A．our values and lifestyles are in no field of human activity
    B．the clothes that we choose to wear have something to do with our values and lifestyles
    C．our values and lifestyles are from the sign language
    D．the clothes we choose to wear depend on a set of information and immediate impression
    小题2:Traditionally，people usually thought that       .
    A．men cared very much for clothes
    B．neither men nor women showed interest in clothes
    C．both men and women paid great attention to their clothes
    D．women concerned greatly about what they wore while men didn’t
    小题3:White-collar workers pay great attention to their clothes because       ．
    A．they extremely concern about the impression their clothes make on their bosses
    B．they know that people might judge them on the basisof their clothes
    C．they want to impress and influence others
    D．they don’t want to be laughed at
    小题4:What does the underlined word“status”in the last paragraph mean？
    A．雕塑B．身份C．状况D．资格

    Attitude is an internal state that influences the choices of personal action made by the individual. Some researchers consider that attitudes come from differences between beliefs and ideas; others believe that attitudes come from emotional states. Here, we focus on the effects of attitudes upon behavior, that is, upon the choices of action made by the individual.
    The kinds of actions taken by human beings are obviously influenced greatly by attitudes. Whether one listens to classical music or rock, whether one obeys the speed limit while driving, whether one encourages one’s husband or wife to express his or her own ideas—all are influenced by attitudes. These internal states are acquired throughout life from situations one is faced with in the home, in the streets, and in the school.
    Of course, the course of action chosen by an individual in any situation will be largely determined by the particulars of that situation. An individual who has a strong attitude of obeying laws may drive too fast when he is in a hurry and no police cars in sight. A child who has a strong attitude of honesty may steal a penny when she thinks no one will notice. But the internal state which remains unchanged over a period of time, and which makes the individual behave regularly in a variety of situations, is what is meant by an attitude.
    Attitudes are learned in a variety of ways. They can result from single incidents, as when an attitude toward snakes is acquired by an experience in childhood at the sudden movement of a snake. They can result from the individual’s experiences of success and pleasure, as when someone acquires a positive attitude toward doing crossword puzzles by being able to complete some of them. And frequently, they are learned by copying other people’s behavior, as when a child learns how to behave toward foreigners by observing the actions of his parents. Regardless of these differences, there is something in common in the learning and modification（修正）of attitudes.
    小题1: According to the passage, attitudes _________.
    A．come from different situations in one’s life
    B．are largely affected by one’s behavior
    C．remain unchanged in one’s daily life
    D．could be chosen according to one’s will
    小题2:The author uses the examples in Paragraph 3 to show _________.
    A．people often make mistakes when they are not noticed
    B．people with good attitudes may sometimes do bad deeds
    C．particulars of a situation may influence an individual’s action
    D．an individual may change his or her attitude fairly easily
    小题3:Which of the following is TRUE about the learning of attitudes?
    A．Attitudes are only learned through one’s success.
    B．Attitudes learned in danger will last longer.
    C．Copying others behavior is not a good idea.
    D．Attitudes can be learned from one’s parents.
    小题4:What would be the best title for the passage?
    A．Differences of Attitudes.
    B．Nature of Attitude.
    C．Choices of Attitudes.
    D．Modification of Attitude.

    Over the last 70 years．researchers have been studying happy and Unhappy people and finally found out ten factors that make a difference．Our feelings of well-being at any moment are determined to a certain degree by genes．However of all the factors，wealth and age are the top two．
    Money can buy a degree of happiness．But once you can afford to feed，clothe and house yourself, each extra dollar makes less and less difference．
    Researchers find that，on average，wealthier people are happier．But the link between money and happiness is complex．In the past half-century, average income has sharply increased in developed countries，yet happiness levels have remained almost the same．Once your basic needs are met，money only seems to increase happiness if you have more than your friends，neighbors and colleagues．
    “Dollars buy Status(社会地位)，and status makes people feel better,” conclude some experts，which helps explain why people who can seek status in other ways-scientists or actors，for example-may happily accept relatively poorly-paid jobs．
    In a research，Professor Alex Michalos found that the people whose desires-not just for money，but for friends，family, job，health-rose furthest beyond what they already had，tended to be less happy than those who felt a smaller gap(差距)．Indeed，the size of the gap predicted happiness about five times better than income alone．“The gap measures just blow away the only measures of income，”says Michalos．
    Another factor that has to do with happiness is age．Old age may not be so bad．“Given all the problems of aging，how could the elderly be more satisfied?” asks Professor Laura Carstensen．
    Why are old people happier? Some scientists suggest older people may expect life to be harder and learn to live with it，or they're more realistic about their goals，only setting ones that they know they can achieve．But Carstensen thinks that with time running out，older people have learned to focus on things that make them happy and let go of those that don't．
    “People realize not only what they have，but also that what they have cannot-last forever,” she says．“A goodbye kiss to a husband or wife at the age of 85，for example，may bring far more complex emotional responses than a similar kiss to a boy or girl friend at the age of 20.”
    小题1:According to the passage，the feeling of happiness _________.   
    A．has little to do with wealthB．increases gradually with age
    C．is measured by desiresD．is determined partly by genes
    小题2:Some actors would like to accept poorly-paid jobs because the jobs _________.
    A．make them feel much betterB．provide chances to make friends
    C．improve their social positionD．satisfy their professional interests
    小题3:Aged people are more likely to feel happy because they are more _________.   
    A．optimisticB．practicalC．successfulD．emotional
    小题4:Professor Alex Michalos found that people feel less happy if __________.
    A．the gap between reality and desire is bigger
    B．they have a stronger desire for friendship
    C．their income is below their expectation
    D．the hope for good health is greater
