They work much longer than in Europe. This difference is quite surprising because productivity per hour worked is the same in the United States as it is in France, Spain and Germany, and it is growing at a similar speed.In most countries and at most times in history, as people have become richer they have chosen to work less. In other words they have decided to “spenda part of their extra income on a fuller personal life. Over the last fifty years Europeans have continued this pattern, and hours of work have fallen sharply. But not in the United States. We do not fully know why this is. One reason may be more satisfying work, or less satisfying personal lives.Longer hours do of course increase the GDP (国内生产总值). So the United States has produced more per worker than, say,France.The United States also has more of its people at work,while in France many more mothers and older workers have decided to stay at home.The overall result is that American GDP per head is 40% higher than in France,even though productivity per hour worked is the same.It is not clear which of the two situations is better. As we have seen, work has to be compared with other values like family life, which often get lost in interest. It is too early to explain the different trends(趋势)in happiness over time in different countries. But it is a disappointing idea that in the United States happiness has made no progress since 1975, while it has resent in Europe. Could this have anything to do with trends in the work-life balance (平衡) ?36. From the text we know that the author .A. believes that longer working hours is betterB. prefers shorter working hours to longer onesC. says nothing certain about which pattern is betterD. thinks neither of the patterns is good37. Which of the following countries has money of its people at work?A. Spain. B. France. C. Germany. D. America.38. In the last paragraph, the underlined word“whichrefers to_.A. family life B. situations C. other values D. trends39. What message can we get from the text?A. The GDP of Europe is higher than that of America.B. Two possible reasons are given for working longer hours in the US.C. People all over the world choose to work less when they are richer.D. Americans are happier than Europeans.40. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A. Americans and Europeans B. Staying at HomeC. Work and Productivity D. Work and HappinessBWith all the wars, fighting and sadness in the world today, it's not only necessary, but also essential to have a good sense of humor just to help us get through each and every day of our lives. Putting a smile on someone's face when you know they are feeling down in the dumps ( 处于沮丧中), as the saying goes, makes me feel good and warms my heart.How would you feel if you could not joke around with your wife, husband, child, co-worker neighbor, close friend, or even just someone that you are standing in line with at your comer store? I am always saying things that make others smile or laugh, even if I don't know the person I'm joking around with. My Grandma always found humor in everything she did, even if it was the hardest job anyone could imagine. This not only relieves stress in any situation, but also is common courtesy (礼貌) to speak to others that are around you.I know of a few people that dont have a funny bone in their bodies, as they say. Everyone around them could be rolling on the floor after hearing a great joke and they would sit there without the slightest smile on their face. They don't get the joke that makes others laugh. I am busting a gut while they just sit there, looking at me as if I were from outer space. How can people not get a really funny joke?Laughing is essential to keep your stress levels under control. Without humor we would find ourselves with a lot of psychological problems, or on a lot of medications to keep us from going crazy. There is too much sadness in this present world. It drives people crazy. We all need to find a way to bypass the sadness and bring a little light into our lives. So, I believe our best medicine is to get together and tell some jokes and have some fun laughing together.41. According to the author, humor is useful in the aspect that _.A. it makes people more confidentB. it can pick up people' s spiritsC. it. can help get rid of the cruelty in the worldD. it can help people get on well with others42. The author answers the question in the second paragraph with _.A. facts and descriptions B. evidence and argumentC. examples and conclusion D. stories and persuasion 43. The phrase “busting a gut" in the third paragraph can be replaced by _.A. explaining carefully B. speaking loudC. keeping silent D. laughing hard44. In writing the passage, the author mainly intends to _.A. talk about his own understanding of humorB. encourage people to be humorous in daily lifeC. introduce a practical way to get through daily lifeD. convince people of the power of being optimistic about life45. What is the author' s attitude towards the present world?A. Positive. B. Critical. C. Satisfied. D. Indifferent.C Sometimes youll hear people say that you cant love others until you love yourself. Sometimes youll hear people say that you cant expect someone else to love you until you love yourself. Either way, youve got to love yourself first and this can be tricky. Sure we all know that were the apple of our parents eyes, and that our Grandmas think were great talents and our Uncle Roberts think that we will go to the Olympics. But sometimes its a lot harder to think such nice thoughts about ourselves. If you find that believing in yourself is a challenge. it is time you build a positive self-image and learn to love yourself.Self-image is your own minds picture of yourself. This image includes the way you look, the way you act, the way you talk and the way you think. Interestingly, our self-images are often quite different from the images others hold about US. Unfortunately, most of these images are more negative than they should be. Thus changing the way you think about yourself is the key to changing your self-image and your whole world.The best way to defeat a passive self-image is to step back and decide to stress your successes. That is, make a list if you need to, but write down all of the great things you do every day. Dont allow doubts to occur in it.It very well might be that you are experiencing a negative self-image because you cant move past one flaw or weakness that you see about yourself. Well, roll up your sleeves and make a change of it as your primary task. If you think youre silly because you arent good at math, find a tutor. If you think youre weak because you cant run a mile, get to the track and practice. If you think youre dull because you dont wear the latest trends, buy a few new clothes. But remember, just because you think it doesnt mean its true.The best way to get rid of a negative serf-image is to realize that your image is far from objective, and to actively convince yourself of your positive qualities. Changing the way you think and working on those you need to improve will go a long way towards promoting a positive self-image. When you can pat(拍) yourself on the back, youll know youre well on your way. Good luck!46.You need to build a positive self-image when you _.A. dare to challenge yourself B. feel it hard to change yourselfC. are unconfident about yourself D. have a high opinion of yourself47.According to the passage, our serf-images _.A. have positive effects B. are probably untrueC. are often changeable D. have different functions48.How should you change your serf-image according to the passage?A. To keep a different image of others. B. To make your life successful.C. To understand your own world. D. To change the way you think.49.What is the passage mainly about?A. How to prepare for your success. B. How to face challenges in your life.C. How to build a positive self-image. D. How to develop your good qualities.50.Who are the intended readers of the passage?A. Parents. B. Adolescents. C. Educators. D. People in general. DParents should stop blaming themselves because theres not a lot they can do about it. I mean the teenager (十几岁的孩子) problem. Whatever you do or however you choose to deal with it, at certain times a wonderful, reasonable and helpful child will turn into a terrible animal.Ive seen friends deal with it in all kinds of different ways. One strict mother insisted that her son, right from a child, should stand up whenever anyone entered the room, open doors and shake hands like a gentleman. I saw him last week when I called round. Sprawling himself (懒散地躺) on the sofa in full length, he made no attempt to turn off the loud TV he was watching as I walked in,
