三、阅读理解
18.
I used to think the whole purpose of life was pursuing happiness. Everyone said the path to happiness was su ccess, so I searched for that ideal job, that perfect boyfriend, that beautiful apartment. But instead of ever fe eling fulfilled, I felt anxious and adrift. Eventually, I decided to go to graduate school for positive psychology t o learn what truly makes people happy.
And what?s the difference between being happy and having meaning in life? Many psychologists define happiness as a state of comfort and ease, feeling good in the moment. Meaning, though, is deeper. The renowned psychologist Martin Seligman says meaning comes from belonging to and serving something beyond yourself and from developing the best within you. Our culture is obsessed (痴迷于) with happiness, but I came to see that seeking meaning is the more fulfilling path.
There are four pillars (支柱) of a meaningful life. The first pillar is belonging. Belonging comes from being in relationships where you?re valued for who you are intrinsically and where you value others as well. For many people, belonging is the most essential source of meaning. For others, the key to meaning is the second pillar: purpose. Finding your purpose is not the same thing as finding that job that makes you happy.
A hospital custodian told me her purpose is healing sic k people. Many parents tell me, “My purpose is raising my children.” The key to purpose is using your strengths to serve others. Without something worthwhile to do, people flounder. The third pillar of meaning is also about stepping beyond yourself, but in a completely different way: transcendence (超然). Transcendent experiences can change you. Transcendent states are those rare moments when you?re lifted above the hustle and bustle of daily life, your sense of self fades away, and you feel connected to a higher reality. For me, I?m a writer, and it happens through writing. Sometimes I get so in the zone that I lose all sense of time and place. The fourth pillar is storytelling, the story you tell yourself about yourself. Creating a narrative from the events of your life brings clarity. It helps you understand how you became you. But we don?t always realize that we?re the authors of our stories and can change the way we?re telling them. Your life isn?t just a list of events. You can edit, interpret and retell your story, even as you?re constrained by the facts.
That’s the power of meaning. Happiness comes and goes. But when life is really good and when things are really bad, having meaning gives you something to hold on to.
58. What can we infer from the first two paragraphs?
A. Life can be fulfilled by landing ideal jobs.
B. Life dilemma is easy for us to get out of.
C. Happiness is the core values in our culture.
D. Happiness is what most people pursue.
59. From the four pillars of a meaningful life, we can know that ________.
A. nothing is as essential a source of meaning as belonging
B. purpose is less about what you want than what you give
C. transcendent fades easily and rarely makes us cheerful
D. the way of telling stories guarantees a meaningful life
60. The passage aims to tell us that ________.
A. meaning is more important than happiness
B. seeking meaning does more good than bad
C. chasing happiness can make people unhappy
D. meaning has deeper psychological significance

19. Q: On Facebook, my friends are a mix of real-life pals, former classmates, professional colleagues, extended-family members, and … my mom. Mom is the first to like and comment on everything I post, which is annoying. I tried talking to her about it, but her feelings quickly got hurt, so I backed off. I know I can’t block her, but now I don’t want to post anything. How do I handle this?
A: This is about Facebook, not your mom. The often-shrugged-off truth about social media is that nothing is private. It’s easy to forget this, so in a way, you’re lucky that your mom is reminding you. Everything you post—comments, likes, photos—is freely available to future friends, employers, lovers etc unless blocked. That said, you can ask Mom again nicely to tone it down. You can also customize(adapt) your controls so she can’t see everything you post.
Q: In which situations am I required to make a phone call versus send a text message?
A: A text is for information—time, date, news. It’s for the stuff you ca n keep short and sweet. A phone call is for analysis, discussion, opinion, and, if you must, gossip.
Q: I’m always on Facebook, so I just send messages to friends through the site. But when should I log off and send an e-mail?
A:When you’re serious about anything. Think of it as chatting with someone on a bus versus asking her to meet you for coffee. The former is good for casual conversation; the latter is personal and requires attention.
Q: For which occasions should I mail paper invitations versus send e-mail ones? (E-cards are free and easy—what’s not to love?!)
A:Anything important needs a paper invitation. That’s your baseline. So ask yourself: “Do I want people to dress up for this event?” If the answer is yes, dress up your invitation by making it printed instead of virtual. For more casual events and gatherings, e-card away.
Q: Is using emoticons ever inappropriate to express a feeling or make a point in texts or e-mails?
A:Emoticons are for fun. Is the message you’re writing fun? Use an emoticon. Are you asking for a big favor? Skip it. Is the message to your boss or a colleague? Skip it. Avoid them if you want to be taken seriously about anything.
Q: I have a big, happy announcement to share with a lot of people. Is it appropriate to share it on my blog?
A:Yes, so you don’t have to go cc-ing everyone in an e-mail. Post away. But send a private message to those who should know first. Q: I have a big, sad announcement. What should I do?
A: Respect your privacy—and yourself. Pick up the phone and call a trusted friend or family member to let her know, and then ask her to help spread the news offline.
44. What do we learn about social media from the first Q and A?
A. It is illegal to keep track of personal privacy on Facebook.
B. Personal privacy is inaccessible online with control customized.
C. People tend to ignore privacy provided it is blocked purposefully.
D. We need someone to remind us constantly of our privacy online.
45. Which of the following is appropriate about using social media?
A. Sending texts to consult a doctor for surgery
B. Carrying on casual conversations via emails.
C. Emailing your boss with emoticons for promotion.
D. Writing a formal invitation for a dress-up event.
46. According to the passage, how would you make it known that you have won a scholarship to Harvard?
A. Arranging for a social gathering to celebrate it.
B. Informing your teachers who may help you spread.
C. Telling your parents before posting it on your blog.
D. Sending everyone a message privately to share it.
