There was a man playing the piano in a bar. He was a good piano player and always performed in this bar. People came in just to hear him play. But one night, a customer told him that he didn't want to hear him just play the piano any more. He wanted him to sing a song. The man said, "I don't sing." But the customer was persistent(执着的). He told the bar manager, "I'm tired of listening to the piano. I want that man to sing!" The manager shouted across the room, "If you want to get paid, sing a song. Our customers are asking you to sing!" So he did. He sang a song. A piano player who had never sung in public did so for the first time. And everyone was surprised by his song Mona Lisa. He got lots of applause that night. He had such a talent for singing, but he just had been sitting on his talent for the past years!

Old age may not sound exciting. But recent findings offer good news for older people and for people worried about getting older. Researchers found that people become happier and experience less worry after they reach the age of 50. In fact, they say by the age of 85, people are happier with their life than they were when they were 18 years old. The findings came from a survey of more than 340,000 adults in the United States. The Gallup Organization questioned them by telephone in 2008. At that time, the people were between the ages of 18 and 85. The researchers asked questions about emotions like happiness, sadness and worry. They also asked about mental or emotional stress. Arthur Stone in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Science at Stony Brook University in New York led the study. His team found that levels of stress were highest among adults between the ages of 24 and 25. The findings showed that stress levels dropped sharply（突然地） after people reached their fifties. The study also showed that men and women have similar feeling patterns as they grow older. However, women at all ages reported more sadness, stress and worry than men. Researchers say they do not know why happiness increases as people get older. One theory is that, as people grow older, they grow more thankful for what they have and have better control of their feelings. They so spend less time thinking about bad experiences. Professor Stone says the emotional patterns could be connected to changes in how people see the world, or maybe even changes in brain chemistry. The researchers also considered possible influences like having young children, being unemployed or being single. But they found that influences like these did not affect the levels of happiness and well-being（幸福） related to age. 【1】According to the survey of the Gallup Organization people are most likely to become happier. A.when they are between the ages of 18 and 85 B.when they come to their old age C.when they are in their twenties D.when they are 18 years old 【2】You may have the highest level of stress when you are at the age of ______. A.20 B.25 C.35 D.40 【3】According to Arthur Stone, old people may . A.have a positive attitude towards their life B.know how to spend money wisely C.dream about good things every day D.control their behaviors better 【4】Who would probably show the greatest interest in the passage? A.Those who are worried about getting old B.Those who are single and unemployed C.Those who feel unhappy all the time D.Those who suffer from mental stress 【5】What would be the best title for the passage? A.Women Are Easier to Be Happy in Life B.The Young Are Happier Than the Old C.Getting Older Means Getting Happier D.The Younger, the Happier |

阅读下面短文，根据文章的情节续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。 During lunchtime, Emma suggested going to the zoo to feed the animals and her mom agreed. “We’ll stop by the bakery and pick some bread up. Now hurry and eat and then we’ll go. It’s going to be a lovely day. Grandma is coming with us. She’ll be here any minute,’ mom said. Emma ate her lunch and then ran into her room to get her shoes. The problem was that she could only find one of them. She looked under her bed, but all she could see were dirty towels and pants. She moved some of her toys out of the way, but still couldn’t find her shoe. After she’d checked everywhere in her room, she ran into the kitchen. “Mom, I can’t find my shoe. Will you wait while I look for it?”she asked. Her mom thought about how many times she’d told Emma to clean her room up. She whispered something to Emma’s grandma and then said to Emma, “You will have to stay home. Your dad and I will take Ryan to the zoo. Grandma will stay here with you.” “No! Please wait for me. I want to go to the zoo,”Emma cried. “I’m sorry, Emma. I’ve told you a dozen times to clean your room and you ignored me. You can’t find your shoe now. It’s your own fault for not doing as I asked. You will stay home.” Emma ran into her bedroom, crying. Her mom came to the door and said, “Emma, clean that room of yours before I get home. I’ve told grandma not to give you any sweets until you finish the work.” She went out to the car with Ryan and Emma’s dad and then they drove away. 注意：(1)所续写短文的词数应为150左右； (2)应使用5个以上短文中标有下划线的关键词语； (3)续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好； (4)续写完成后，请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。 Paragraph 1： Emma sat on her bed and cried for a long time.______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2： Emma and her grandma were sitting at the table, eating when her mom, dad, and Ryan came home._______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ |
