The online survey of 28,153 people in more than 51 countries by global marketing and information firm Nielsen found that as the world grapples(努力解决) with a recession and financial markets remain volatile(反复无常), many people are reminding themselves that money cant buy happiness. The Nielsen Happiness Study found that globally, women are happier than men in 48 of the 51 countries surveyed in April 2008, and only in Brazil, South Africa and Vietnam were men found to be happier than women. "Because they are happier with non-economic factors, womens happiness is more recession-proof which might explain why women around the world are happier in general than men are," Nielsen Vice President of Consumer Research Bruce Paul said in a statement. Japanese women reported the greatest difference and are 15 percent happier than Japanese men. Women are also more optimistic about the future, scoring higher than men on predictions of their happiness in the next six months. Men are generally happier with their physical health than women, and this is especially pronounced in South Africa. Egypt bucks(相反，相对立)the trend, with women rating their happiness with their health considerably higher than men. Globally, men rated their happiness with their mental health higher than women. This was echoed in Belgium, South Korea, Mexico, Norway, Spain, Sweden, Egypt, and Israel. As well as measuring levels of happiness, the Nielsen survey examined what specific factors contributed to happiness around the world. "Happiness is a local and personal matter and Nielsen sought to uncover what specific factors contribute to making people happy in different parts of the world," Paul said. "Many of the worlds poorer and emerging markets outranked developed countries for happiness and satisfaction levels in nearly ail aspects of their lives." Nielsen also looked closely at survey results to find out if a nations happiness level was influenced by low income inequality, low corruption or peace. Surprisingly, markets which performed poorly on these factors were in many cases the happiest nations, Paul said. "For consumers in rapidly developing markets, there could be a greater sense of appreciation for things that bring a better life than they had a few years ago.It can be concluded from the first paragraph that _.Ahappiness has no connection with moneyBmen are happier than women in most countriesCwomens happiness mainly comes from economic factorsDsocial relationship means more than money to womens happiness 3.Some people describe American society as a salad bowl while others see it as a melting pot. In a sense, both are correct depending upon ones point of view. In a bowl of freshly tossed salad, all the ingredients are mixed together. Yet they never lose their shape, form or identity. Together, however, the ingredients make up a unity. In a sense, all the ingredients of a salad contribute to the finished product. They may be covered with the same dressing, but the green vegetables, tomatoes, lettuce and eggs can all be seen for what they are. From this point of view, America is very much like a salad bowl where individual ethnic groups blend together, yet maintain their cultural uniqueness. They may work together during the day at similar jobs and in identical companies, but at night they may return to their ethnic communities where the flavor of their individual culture dominates their way of life. This is why perhaps there is so much diversity within America. Each ethnic group has its own special interests, language, food, customs and traditions to protect and defend. This idea of the salad bowl is referred to by sociologists as cultural pluralism. It simply means that American society is a collection of many cultures living side by side within one country. The other concept which is also used to describe American society is that of the melting pot. In this usage, society is like a pot of stew (炖菜) or a cauldron (大锅) of porridge. All of the ingredients mix and blend together losing their identity and yield a bit of what they were to become a new reality. A pot of stew is very different from a bowl of salad. Within the stew, the meat and vegetables in the cooking process give to each other a bit of their own flavor. The longer the stew is allowed to simmer (炖), the better the taste and the more likely it will be for the mixture to dissolve. In this sense, America can surely be seen as a melting pot where people from all over the world come to live and work together forming one nation. Whether a salad bowl or a melting pot, America can best be described as a mixture of both; that is to say, a nation where there is unity in diversity.Why does someone see America as a salad bowlAThe Americans work together during the day and night.BEach ethnic group has its unique culture.CThere is no culture diversity in America.DAmerica society is a unity with one culture. 4.Questions 19 to 22 are based on the conversation you have just heard.AThe man will be hired as the worker of the company.BThey appreciate the man for his experience in computer games.CThey will not hire the man for he is just a game player.DThe man is more competent for .playing computer games. 5.Questions 11 to 18 are based on the conversation you have just heard.AIn the telephone booth.BAt the post office.CIn a music bar.DIn a department store. 6.Advanced technology has already pushed human being to edges, such as the production of weapons of mass destruction, the destruction of Ozone by Freon, and the application of clone.
