    What makes people happier, money or having happy friends and neighbors? Scientists have found an
 answer as part of a study.
     The new study found that friends of happy people had a greater chance of being happy themselves.
 And the smaller the distance between friends, the larger the effect they had on each other's happiness (幸
 福).
     For example, a person was 20% more likely to feel happy if a friend living within one and a half
 kilometers was also happy. Having a happy neighbor who lived next door increased a chance of being
 happy by 34%. The effects (影响) of friends' happiness lasted for up to a year.
     The scientists found sadness (悲伤) also spread (传播) among friends, but not as much as happiness.
 People take three degrees out of separation (间隔) still had an effect on a person's happiness. Three
 degrees of separation means the friend of a friend of a friend  .
     The study showed that having an extra five thousand dollars increased a person's chances of becoming
  happier by about 2%. But the scientists found that the influence of a friend of a friend of a friend  can be
  greater than that.
     Another finding is that people who are married or work together do not have as much of an effect on
 happiness as friends do.

     What will the future be like? It's possible that we may often fly up into space! Out of all the coolest
inventions of the year, Time chose Spaceship One as the best.
      Spaceship One is a 6-meter-long white spaceship. On June 21,American pilot Mike Melville flew it to
space and back-about 100 kilometers up into the sky. (1) Some might say it's not a big deal. You know, people
went to the moon years ago.
     Well, Spaceship One is special because (2) it is the first spaceship that wasn't made by the government. It
was built and launched (发射) by a private US company. Lots of people want to travel in space. But it's too
expensive. American millionaire Dennis Tito paid almost US $ 20 million to become the first space tourist to
visit the International Station in 2001. So private companies began to think of making their own spaceship to
take other tourists up into space.
    (3)飞船一号的成功是一个好的开端. In the next 10 to 15 years, if you pay $20,000 to $100,000, you
could fly high above the earth.
    What about having your own spaceship in your garage and taking in to space at the weekend?

    What is a supermarket? In the dictionary, a supermarket is a large self-service department store. Some
supermarkets have two floors. When you enter such a supermarket,an elevator (电梯) will take you to the
second floor. Here you can buy things such as CDs, pens, clothes, TVs and refrigerator after you have
collected the things you want to buy on the second floor, you can go downstairs to the first floor where
food and drinks are sold (被卖到). You can also buy fresh fruit,vegetables and meat on this floor. 
     People like to go shopping in the supermarket. Here are some of the reasons (原因).
    *First, the prices are reasonable (合理的). The prices are lower than these in special shops and you can
choose whatever you want, without going place to place.
    ★Second the service is great. You can walk around freely and no one will ask you, "What can I do for
you?" If you can't find anything, just ask a service person and he or she will tell you where it is at once.
    ★Third, the quality is good. If you get home and find the food bad, you can return it and they will say
sorry and change it for you.
    ★Nowadays many people don't have much time to walk from one shop to another, so people choose to
go to the supermarket in order to save time and money.
    ★What's more, if you don't want to buy anything,you can just come and look around in the supermarket.
It's a good place to have a walk.

     What is it like being an actor? Many people think it must be wonderful because we travel to exciting
places, wear beautiful clothes and (A)挣钱多. This is only one aspect (方面) of our lives though. We also
work very hard.
     I played a country girl in my last (B) movie. I had to live in a small village with the other actors for part
of the winter. (C)It was really hard for me as I grew up in a city. To help me play a country girl better, I
cooked for myself and the others every day. I even walked a few miles sometimes to get water, as there was
none in the houses. I wanted to understand how a real village girl lived. I thought it was fun at first. I felt
different after a week or two, though.
     I did wear some beautiful traditional clothes, but they were not thick enough. I was very cold but I had to
keep smiling all the time! One day, I couldn't do it any longer and I suddenly (D) started crying, "Great!" said
the director. "I like it. She is crying with true feelings!" I called my mum to tell (E) Her about it but my mobile
phone (手机) wouldn't work in the village.
     I think it is worth doing all this, though. I like it when people tell me they enjoy my plays and ask me to
sign a picture. It is also fun to be someone else for a while. I'm very lucky to be an actor.
