    3．Living near the beach may come with an extra perk （利益）：better health．A new study analyzed information from more than 48million people in England and found that the nearer they lived to the coast，the more likely people were to report good health within the past year．
    Living near the coast may be associated with better health because the seaside environment reduces stress，the researchers said．They pointed to another British study that found that people who took trips to the coast experienced more feelings of calmness and relaxation than those who visited urban parks or the countryside．
    The difference from living near the coast was relatively small．But a small effect，when applied to an entire population can have a substantial impact on public health，said study researcher Ben Wheeler of Peninsula College of Medicine and Dentistry in Exeter，England．
    However，it's too soon to advise people to hit the beach to improve health，Wheeler said．The study only found an association，not a cause-effect link，and it's possible that other factors could explain the results．For instance，it could be that people who are wealthier，and therefore healthier，are more able to move to desired locations such as the coast，Wheeler said，a phenomenon known as the migrant effect．But the study did find that the association between coastal living and better health was strongest for those living in the poorest areas，which perhaps indicates that wealth cannot explain the results，Wheeler said．
    Because the study looked at only England-an island country in which everyone lives within 72miles of the coast-it's not clear whether the findings would apply to other populations．Far from England，a health expert not involved in the study said that while the British research certainly doesn't prove that people's health and the place they live are linked，it's possible that proximity to the seas does something for our bodies．
    If future studies confirm the results，the next step would be to find out it is what coastal environments that can benefit health．Wheeler said it may then be possible to bring those benefits to people living in other areas，through virtual environments，for instance．

    28．We can conclude from the passage thatB．
    A．people are encouraged to move to the coast
    B．people living near the sea may be healthier
    C．people pay increasingly attention to health
    D．people are worried about residential environment
    29．According to the researchers，living near the seaC．
    A．doesn't nearly affect the British population
    B．can cure some difficult diseases in a way
    C．can help get over one's stress
    D．means freeing from sadness or troubles
    30．What Ben Wheeler said meansD．
    A．the British public health is decreasing
    B．concrete evidence favors life near the sea
    C．wealthier people are likely to be healthier
    D．exact reasons are proposed for further research

    19．According to researchers，money can buy happiness，but only if you spend it on someone else．
    Spending as little as 5 a day on someone else could significantly bring you happiness，the team at the University of British Columbia and Harvard Business School found．Their experiments  on more than 630 Americans showed they were measurably（适度地）happier when they  spent money on others---even if they thought spending the money on themselves would make them happier．"We wanted to test our theory that how peoplespend their money is at least asi mportant as how much money they earn，"said Elizabeth Dunn，a psychologist at the University of British Columbia．They asked their 600 volunteers first to rate their general happiness，report their annual income and detail their monthly spending including bills，gifts for themselves，giftsfor others and donations to charity（慈善机构）．"Regardless of  how much income each person made，those who spent money on others reported greater happiness，while those who spent more on themselves did not，"Dunn said in a statement．Dunn's team also surveyed（调查）16 employees at acompany in Boston before and after they received an annual profit-sharingbonus（奖金）of between3，000 and 8，000．"Employeeswho devoted more of their bonus to pro-social（有益社会的）spending experienced greater happiness after receiving the bonus，and the manner in which they spent that bonus was a more important predictor（预示）oftheir happiness than the size of the bonus itself，"they wrote in their report，published in the journal Science．They gave  their volunteers 5 or20 and half got clear instructions on how to spend it．Those who spentthe money on someone or something else reported feeling happier about it．"These findings suggest that veryminor alterations（改动）in spending allocations（分配）---as little as $5---may be enough to produce real gains in happiness on a given day，"Dunn said．

    17．In Singapore，most of us love window-shopping while some others enjoy having a picnic at East Coast Park or Changi Beach on sunny days．Singaporeans are never bothered by the occasional thunderstorm．However，we know that if it rains for long continuous periods，there will be more serious effects．Just recently the main shopping street of Orchard Road was flooded and some part of Bukit Timah was impassable to traffic．People reacted by writing in to the newspaper to complain about this!We forget that other countries suffer much worse effects．Elsewhere，heavy tropical（热带的）storms often result in floods that ruin erops especially in Thailand and Malaysia．This in turn usually means that the price of rice and vegetables here in Singapore will rise because we import these products from them．If there is a typhoon or tsunami，thousands of lives are lost too．This happened in Indonesia and Phuket in Thailand in 2004 and it serves to remind us of how Mother Nature can cause great damage．
    Weather patterns in general have changed dramatically in recent years．Scientists believe that global warming and the resulting melting of the polar ice-cap has caused the level of the ocean to rise．This in turn causes flooding of low-lying areas in countries where the land is rather flat and some parts of which is below water level．It is believed that human activities have caused Mother Nature to show her extreme anger，so it is now important that we really work together to cut down on harmful activities，for example，illegal logging（伐木）or irresponsible forest-burning to clear land for farming．
    56．From Paragraph 1，we can see that most Singaporeans loveC．
    A．making complaints       
    B．going out for picnics
    C．doing window-shopping   
    D．traveling along the coast
    57．What will happen in Singapore if there are floods in its neighboring countries？B
    A．Heavy tropical storms will follow shortly．
    B．The price of rice and vegetables will go up．
    C．Many people will write in to the newspaper．
    D．More rice and vegetables will be imported．
    58．The underlined word"it"in Paragraph 2 refers toD．
    A．the arrival of heavy tropical storms
    B．the import of rice and vegetables
    C．the rising price of rice and vegetables
    D．the loss of lives in natural disasters
    59．Which of the following shows how the low-lying areas are flooded？A
    a．global warming
    b．the rise in ocean level
    c．harmful human activities
    d．the flooding of low-lying areas
    e．the melting of the polar ice-cap
    A．c→a→e→b→d       
    B．a→c→e→b→d       
    C．c→a→b→e→d       
    D．d→a→c→b→e
    60．What should we do in order not to make Mother Nature angry？B
    A．Clear more land for farming
    B．Reduce harmful human activities．
    C．Bring down the price of food
    D．Improve the quality of weather．
