"Spending as little as $5 a day on someone else can make you happier," the researchers from a team at the University（大学）of British Columbia and Harvard Business School reported.
Their experiments on 600 volunteers in the US showed people were feeling happier when they spent money on others.
The team asked their 600 volunteers about their income（收入），their daily costs, gifts for others and donations to charity. "No matter how much money each person made, those who spent money on others could get greater happiness than those who spent money only on themselves," Dunn said.
Dunn’s team also surveyed 16 workers at a company in Boston after they received an award of between $3,000 and $8,000. "Of course they felt happy after receiving the awards," they wrote in their report. "But when they gave the people in need $5, they were happier."
"The findings showed that as little as $5 could be enough to produce happiness on a whole day," Dunn said.
【小题1】 There were ______ people in all who took part in the experiments.

【小题2】The underlined word "experiments" means ______ in Chinese.

Last Saturday, our school organized a talent show to raise money for charity. It was a great success. Students took an active part in it and we raised 20,000 yuan in all.
After the show I interviewed three students. First, I talked with Liu Li. In the talent show, she danced the ballet（芭蕾舞）. “How long have you been dancing the ballet?” I asked. “For about six years.” she answered. “Why do you learn it?” “I think it’s beautiful and I want to be a professional dancer when I grow up.”
Next I had a talk with Zhao Qiang. He played a piece of Mozart’s music. He played wonderfully. I asked, “When did you start playing the piano?” “Um, I’m twelve now and I have been doing it since I was five.” he said. “Are you going to play the piano after you finish high school?” “Sure. My dream is to be a pianist.”
Finally, I asked Chen Yun, an 11-year-old girl. She sang us some folk songs（民歌）. Her voice is very sweet. “Why are you interested in folk music?” I asked. “I admire Song Zuying and I want to be a singer like her. I have been singing folk songs since five years ago. I hope I can hold a singing concert in the future.” she said.

Pablo Picasso was born in Spain in 1881. His father was an artist and also an art teacher. He gave little Picasso the first lesson in drawing. The boy showed great interest in it and learned it very quickly. Picasso drew so well that he won a prize — “Science and Charity” for his first important painting at the age of 15. Later he studied in several cities in Spain. But no one could teach him because he had known so much.
