Ⅲ.阅读理解(共8小题；每小题2分，满分16分)
A
You don't need millions to be happy.In fact，at the Happiness Institute in Australia，a couple of hundred dollars may be enough.
The institute opened its door last year，and，since then，men and women of all ages have been paying $200 an hour for lessons on how to feel great.
“You can actually increase your happiness levels.That's what we teach，”said Timothy Sharp，founder of the institute.
Experts say that only about 15 percent of happiness comes from income，assets and other financial factors.As much as 85 percent comes from things such as attitude，life control and relationships.
Most of us are significantly better off financially than our parents and grandparents，but happiness levels haven't changed to reflect that.
Studies show that once the basic needs of shelter and food are met，additional wealth adds very little to happiness.
Many decades ago，the “sage of Baltimore，Maryland”，editor H L Mencken，defined(下定义)wealth as earning $100 more than your “wife's sister's husband”．Behavioral economists now say part of the reason we are richer but not happier is that we compare ourselves to people better off materially.
“The argument is that if you want to be happy there's a very simple thing you can do：
Compare yourself to people who are less well_off than you—poorer，smaller house and car，” said Sharp.
The Happiness Institute aims to show you how to overcome these unhappiness factors by focusing on “more than just your bank account”．
“If I compare myself to Bill Gates then I'm always going to be down，” said Sharp.
A better thing to compare with，he said，might be Kerry Packer，Australia's richest person who has had a kidney transplant(肾脏移植)and heart surgery in recent years.
31．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A．You can increase your happiness levels by attending the classes at The Happiness Institute.
B．Most of us are happier than our parents or grandparents since we earn more.
C．Earning $100 more than your wife's sister's husband if you want to be happy.
D．Both Bill Gates and Kerry Packer are examples of those who are extremely rich but obviously unhappy.
答案A[推理判断题。

文中第二段讲每小时花费200美元就可在The Happiness Institute上如何提高幸福水平的课。

]
32．The underlined phrase has the same meaning as the word ________.
A．healthy B．unhealthy C．free D．wealthy
答案D[词义理解题。

从倒数后四段Sharp所说的话可知，把自己与比你穷的人相比，你就会有幸福感。

]
33．The author wrote the passage to tell us ________.
A．happiness is everything
B．wealth is the foundation of happiness
C．we can have fun at The Happiness Institute
D．money doesn't always mean happiness
答案D[主旨大意题。

文中讲我们大多数人的经济状况比我们的父母和祖父母好，但幸福水平并没有随之改变；基本的衣食住行得到满足后，额外的财富并不能增添快乐；文中末尾讲澳大利亚首富需要做肾脏移植以及心脏手术，他并不快乐。

作者在文中是想告诉我们金钱并不总使我们幸福。

] 34．According to the passage，happiness mainly depends on ________.
A．income，assets and other financial factors
B．additional wealth apart from the satisfaction of the basic needs of shelter and food
C．things like attitude，life control and relationships
D．society development
答案C[细节理解题。

文中第四段中专家说大约只有15%的快乐来自于收入、财产和其他经济因素；而高达85%的快乐来源于状态、生活的控制与人际关系。

]
B
Few people would question the value of taking part in sports for young people.With proper training，supervision，protective equipment and techniques，and a proper emphasis on winning，sports can develop a healthy body and spirit and a life-long interest in being active and fit.Without such measures，childhood sports can lead to injuries and even paralysis or death.
Even in the best conditions，no activity can be risk-free.But most serious hazards are preventable.Cyclists and football players can reduce their risks by wearing helmets；hockey players by wearing masks；basketball and tennis players by wearing eye guards；baseball players by wearing batting helmets.
Besides，risks to individual players can often be found，and thus prevented，through a properly performed medical exam before a child plays.For accidents that may not be preventable，having an emergency plan and first-aid equipment，and someone trained to use the equipment，can be lifesaving.
Still，each year，according to the American College of Sports Medicine，more than 775,000 children under 14 are treated in emergency rooms for sports injuries，nearly half of them preventable.An estimated 300,000 athletes experience exercise-related head illnesses each year，and almost all of them should have been avoided.
Further，from half to three-fourths of sports-related concussions(脑震荡) are never even diagnosed；the injured are often sent back to play too soon and put at risk of another more serious brain-damaging concussion.To help reduce these risks，the National Center for Sports Safety，with the National Athletic Trainers'Association，offers a three-hour online safety course for coaches for $28 at . 【解题导语】本文谈的是人们在体育锻炼时存在的一些安全隐患及相关的保护措施。

35．Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A．All the accidents can be prevented.
B．All the accidents cannot be prevented.
C．Lives can be saved so long as there is proper equipment.
D．Lives cannot be saved even if there is proper equipment.
答案B[正误判断题。

根据文章第二段前两句可排除A而得出B正确；根据文章第三段内容可知C、D两项说法太绝对。

]
36．What does the underlined word “hazards”(in Paragraph 2) mean?
A．Mistakes. B．Diseases.C．Dangers. D．Situations.
答案C[词义猜测题。

根据画线词所在句的前一句及后面的preventable可推知答案为C。

]
37．It is implied in the passage that ________.
A．prevention of injuries is not paid enough attention to
B．children under 14 are more easily hurt in sports
C．most head illnesses are related with exercise
D．none of the head illnesses should have happened
答案A[推理判断题。

由第四段所说的“有超过775 000名孩子因运动受伤，而近一半是可以避免的”“有约300 000名运动员头部受伤，而本来基本上可以全部避免的”可知，人们没有对预防受伤给予足够的重视。

]
38．What can coaches mainly learn from the online safety course?
A．How to cure brain-damaging concussion.
B．How to diagnose brain-damaging concussion.
C．How to predict the possibility of brain damage.
D．How to deal with the injured properly.
答案D[细节理解题。

根据最后一段所谈内容可知此课程的目的是告诉教练们怎样正确救助(处理)受伤者。
