Whillans, a professor at HBS said, “Buying time helps to protect us from the stress in our lives caused by time pressure, and the feeling that we don t have enough minutes in the day to plete our tasks. The effect was clearest in the Canadian experiment, in which 60 working adults were given $40 to spend in two different ways. One weekend, they were told to spend the money on a material purchasea gift for themselves. The next weekend, they were instructed to spend the $40 on anything that saved them time, from paying the neighbors kid to run errands (跑腿) to taking a Uber instead of a bus. “On the day they made the time-saving purchase, they felt happier, in a better mood, and lower feelings of time stress than on the day they bought a material purchase” said Whillans. The biggest surprise to the researchers was how few people would spend money on time-saving services. When they asked 98 working adults how they would spend a “windfall” of $40, only two percent named a purchase that would save them time. “One reason, said Whillans, “is that were very bad at remembering how much we hate doing certain tasks once the suffering has passed. That makes us less likely to take active steps to avoid that over burdened feeling in the future.” But another possible cause is good old-fashioned guilt. “If you feel guilty about getting someone to clean your house for you, then you might get less happiness from outsourcing that task,” said Whillans, or you might just be less likely to spend your money in that way. 1.In the Canadian experiment, the participants_.A.were divided into two groupsB.were given $ 40 every two weeksC.were asked to give money to a neighbors kidD.were asked to spend the money in different ways2.According to the author, what can make people less time-stressed?A.Paying much for a concert ticket.B.Taking a regular bus to get to work.C.Employing someone to clean the garden.D.Buying themselves an expensive present.3.When it es to spending money on buying time”, _.A.no people would like to do itB.a small percentage of people choose to do itC.more people will do it if extra money is givenD.most people like the idea but dont practice it in life4.What do the underlined words “that overburdened feeling” in Paragraph 6 refer to?A.The good old-fashioned guilt.B.The feeling of spending money on goods.C.The stress of having someone clean your house.D.The disfort when pleting tasks we hate doing.7、 Stonehenge, the world-famous circle of stone columns may 12. have had a brother. A much bigger, older brother. University of Bradford researchers announced they had discovered about 100 stones covering several acres thought to have been built around 4,500 years ago. The Stonehenge Hidden Landscapes Project discovered the monument, which is near Durrington Walls, also known as “ superhenge”. Stonehenge, which is believed to have been pleted 3,500 years ago, is about 2 miles away. "What we are starting to see is the largest surviving stone monument, preserved underneath a bank, that has ever been discovered in Britain and possibly in Europe,” said Vince Gaffney. The evidence was found under 3 feet of earth. Some of the stones are thought to have stood 15 feet tall before they were toppled. "Our radar data have shown an amazing row of up to 90 standing stones, a number of which have survived after being pushed over, and a large bank placed over the stones," said professor Wolfgang Neubauer, director of the Ludwig Boltzmann Institute for Archaeological Prospection and Virtual Archaeology. “ In the east,up to 30 stones . have survived below,” he said. “The extraordinary scale and details of the evidence produced by the Stonehenge Hidden Landscapes Project, which the new discoveries at Durrington Walls, is changing fundamentally(根本上) our understanding of Stonehenge and the world around it," Neubauer added. "Everything written before about the Stonehenge landscape and the ancient monuments within it will need to be rewritten,” said Paul Garwood, a scientist and lead historian on the project at the University of Birmingham. The findings were announced on the first day of the British Science Festival being held at the University of Bradford.1.It is believed that the superhenge is _earlier than the Stonehenge.A.1,000 yearsB.2,500 yearsC.3,500 yearsD.4,500 years2.What do researchers think of the superhenge?A.It is the biggest monument discovered in the world.B.It was built much later than the Stonehenge.C.It is the largest surviving stone monument found in England.D.It is better protected than the Stonehenge.3.What do the underlined word “toppled” most probably mean?A.Set up.B.Pushed down.C.Moved away.D.Brought up.4.What is the best title of the passage?A.The southern England has many historic sitesB.The British Science Festival will be held againC.Bigger Brother to Stonehenge has been discoveredD.The Project at the University of Birmingham完形填空8、閱讀下面短文,從短文后各題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)(A、B、C和D)中,選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。 Born in America,I spoke English,not Chinese,the language of my ancestors.When I was three,my parents flashed cards with Chinese 1 at my face,but I pushed them 2 .My mom believed I would learn 3 I was ready.But the 4 never came.

While it is also rich in water resources, its fresh water per person accounts of only a quarter of the worlds per capita(人均). Better still,water resources are unevenly distributed in China, for most fresh water concentrate in its south whereas there is only 1/4 as much in the north. Beside water scarcity in China, there is another serious problem: water pollution. Over the past decades, more than 80% of surface and ground water has polluted as a result of uncontrol discharge of industrial wastes. The consequence is that over half of the six hundred cities throughout the county are short of water supply, of that one hundred and eight are already very thirsty. For this reason, we must heighten our aware of water protection and make greater efforts to protect the environment, or else the last drop of the water on earth would be our teardrop. 答案以及解析1答案及解析：答案：that 2答案及解析：答案：did解析：句意:直到莉莉走進(jìn)辦公室她才意識(shí)到她把合同落在家里了。 “only+狀語(yǔ)從句”置于句首時(shí).主句需用部分倒裝形式。根據(jù)題干中的had left可以推斷出設(shè)空處應(yīng)該用一般過(guò)去時(shí),故填did。 3答案及解析：答案：is waiting 4答案及解析：答案：held 5答案及解析：答案：of 6答案及解析：答案：1.D; 2.C; 3.B; 4.D解析：1.細(xì)節(jié)理解題:根據(jù)The effect was clearest in the Canadian experiment,in which 60 working adults were given $40 to spend in two different ways.可知,在加拿大的這個(gè)實(shí)驗(yàn)中,參加實(shí)驗(yàn)的人被要求用不同的方式花錢.故選D.2.細(xì)節(jié)理解題. 根據(jù) On the day they made the time-saving purchase, they felt happier, in a better mood, and lower feelings of time stress than on the day they bought a material purchase可知,花錢雇用別人打掃花園的人時(shí)間壓力更少些。故選C。3.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù) The biggest surpriseto the researchers was how few people would spend money on time-saving services.可知選B。4.詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)“One reason,” said Whillans,“ is that were very bad at remembering how much we hate doing certain tasks once the suffering has passed.
