17、 along New York Citys East River. Suddenly something caught his eye a large 60-year-old man balancing on the four-foot-high fence that guarded the path from the water. As Messina got closer to the scene, the man took a step forward and slipped into the dark river below.When Messina reached nearer, t

18、he man was struggling in the water, clearly unable to swim. Other joggers also heard the mans cry. David Blauzvern and John Green dropped their phones and keys on land and jumped in. “People had called the police, but it was unclear when theyd get there. says Green. “We just reacted. Messina joined

19、them in the river. Just as the jumper was losing strength, Blauzvern take hold of him. The pair were about 30 yards from the seawall when Messina and Green caught up to them. They seized the man, with Blauzvern supporting his back and Messina and Green holding him up from either side. As the men mad

20、e their toward the concrete seawall that stretched (延伸) for blocks in each direction, Blauzvern had an awful realization: there was no way out of the river.By now, a crowd had gathered on land. “A rescue boat is on its way, someone yelled to them. Swimming forward was getting tougher by the minute.

21、The jumper, who was six foot two and weighed around 260 pounds, was heavy in his rescuers arms. After ten minutes, they managed to get to the rivers edge. “Ive never been so out of breath, says Blauzvern.Fifteen minutes after the men had jumped into the river, the two-man rescue boat appeared. But b

22、ecause it couldnt risk getting too close to the seawall, the men had to swim out to it. “I was completely out of energy at this point, says Blauzvern. The men in the water pushed the jumper while the men in the boat pulled him up and, finally, to safety. The man they had saved was taken to the hospi

23、tal for evaluation(评估). Details on his condition have not been known.

27、e top of their sport and hopefully win a gold medal. Since every competitors goal is to win, we assume that the silver medalists would be less happy than gold-medal winners, but still happier than those in third place. Common sense says that our levels of happiness should have something to do with o

28、ur levels of achievement except that often this isnt the case.Researchers found that bronze medalists actually appeared on the whole to be happier than silver medalists. How could that be? The answer, in a word, is gratitude. Silver medallists, who compared themselves to the gold medalists, experien

29、ced disappointment at having been close to winning the gold, but falling short. The bronze medalists, on the other hand, were thankful to have won a medal at all, comparing themselves to all those who didnt even reach the Olympic platform. If happiness, then, is the aim of life, perhaps our achievem

30、ent-centered culture is getting it all backwards. We focus on what we want rather than on what we have. We forget to be grateful, and as a result we forget to be happy.Were from a culture that teaches us to envy others another person achievements and that is always looking forward to what comes next

31、. Yet in a better society, might we not look at what all of our earlier nexts have already earned us?I encourage any person who struggles with frustration 挫折in their life to take out a notebook and a pen each evening before bed, and to write down all the things that they have gratitude for.

35、appinessB. Medals and HappinessC. Gratitude and HappinessD. Happiness from AchievementsDOn a clear night, you can see a sky paced with stars. But you cant see planets orbiting any of these stars, even with the strongest Earthbased telescopes. Astronomers reported that they discovered seven Earthsize

36、d planets orbiting a nearby star called TRAPPIST 1 in February. They had to rely on indirect evidence to tell them that the planets are there. By doing some math, they figured out the number of planets and the distance of their orbits.TRAPPIST 1 is a red dwarf 红矮星, much smaller than our sun, but lar

37、ger than Jupiter (木星). If the sun were the size of a basketball, TRAPPIST 1would be the size of a gold ball. This star is one of our closest neighbors, just like the moon to the earth in space. When astronomers using Earth-based telescopes to study TRAPPIST 1,they noticed that every once in a while,

38、 it became slightly dim昏暗. They decided that a planet must be passing in front of the star, blocking part of the light. This dimming would come and go as the planet orbited the star, passing alternately (交替地) behind and in front of the star regularly.By making careful observations, astronomers expec

39、ted to get a rough idea of the planets size from the pattern of dimming light. But the light level changed often and not at evenly spaced (均匀间隔的) times. The astronomers had to conclude they were looking at more than one planet! To get additional data, NASAs spritzer Space Telescope measured TRAPPIST

40、 1s brightness nearly continuously for 20 days, catching 34 crossings of planets in front of the star. Sorting through the mess of data, the astronomers found that the innermost planet completes its orbit in 1.5 Earth days, while the outermost planet takes 20 days. Once you know how long it takes ea

41、ch planet to complete an orbit, you can work out how far it is from the star compared with the other planets.The TRAPPIST 1 planets are not alone. So far, astronomers have found more than 3,400 planets that orbit other stars.32. How did astronomers know the number of planets orbiting TRAPPIST 1?A. T

42、hey used their eyes.B. They used telescopes.C. They performed some calculation.D. They made some guess.33. How does the author introduce TRAPPIST 1 in paragraph 2?A. By giving examples.B. By making comparisons.C. By providing research results.D. By listing some numbers.34. What probably causes the s

43、tar TRAPPIST 1 to be slightly dim?A. The telescopes failure.B. The cloud floating around.C. The stars moving.D. The passing planets.35. Whats the main idea of Paragraph 4?A. The ways to get the information of the planets.B. The introduction of the planets.C. The distances of the planets to the star.

45、y making it less outstanding Perhaps, it may be said that if coloring is mainly protective, there ought to be fewer brightly colored animals. 36 . The kingfisher itself, though so brightly colored, is not easy to see. 37 . Thus, for instance, the lion, and the wild donkey are all sandcolored. “Indee

46、d, in the desert, neither trees, brushwood, nor even undulation (起伏) of the surface afford the slightest protection to its enemies. 38 . says an expert.The next point is the color of the mature caterpillars(毛虫), some of which are brown. This probably makes the caterpillar even more outstanding among

47、 the green leaves. What would you do if you were a big caterpillar? Why, like most other defenceless creatures, you would feed by night, and lie hidden by day. 39 . When the morning light comes, they go down the stem of the food plant, and hide among dry sticks and leaves around the ground, and it is obvious that under such circumstances the brown color really becomes a protection. While we may say as a general rule that the large caterpillars feed by night and hide by day, it is by no means always the case that they are brown: some of
