The monkey tried to eat them, but hurt his teeth. The apples were made of wood, but they were beautiful, and when the other monkeys 【3】 them, he held onto them even tighter.

The apples became 【7】 , and the poor little monkey thought about leaving them behind. He was tired and hungry; he couldn't climb trees or collect fruit with his hands 【8】 . What if he just let go? Letting go of such 【9】 things seemed crazy, but what else could he do? He was so tired. Seeing the next fruit tree and smelling its fruit, the monkey stopped. He 【10】 the wooden apples and reached up for his meal. He was happy again.

【解析】【1】 文章讲的是丛林中一只快乐的猴子,整天游荡,饿的时候就吃美味的水果,累的时候就休息( resting)。

【2】由下一段中The apples were made of wood可知。

【3】当其他猴子表示喜欢(enjoyed)它们时,小猴子拿得更紧了。C有一定的干扰性,但从下文的admire可知用enjoyed更好。

【4】木苹果在太阳(sun)下闪闪发亮。

【5】这只猴子是如此迷恋这两只木苹果以至于一开始甚至都忘记了饥饿(hunger)。

【6】 事实上,它也不能停下来(stop)。它怕其他猴子把它的木苹果抢走。

【7】因为饥饿,苹果变得更重(heavier)了。

【8】 两只手都拿着苹果(full),它不能爬树,也不能采果子。

【9】 由最后一段可知句意为:丟掉如此有价值的(valuable)东西似乎是疯狂的。

【10】猴子又饿又累,只有丢掉(dropped)木制的苹果,爬上树采果子吃,它又开心起来了。

【11】参照27题。

【12】 全文的主旨所在。像那只小猴,我们有时( sometimes)带着似乎很有价值的东西,丢掉它们似乎是疯狂的,但请记住( remember):只有手空着才能拿到其他的东西,所以要学会放弃。

While many of us go through life with the pursuit of money on our mind, we're often told that money can't buy happiness. But what truth is there in the saying? Is there a relation between money and happiness? 【1】

Humans are very sensitive to change. When we get a rise, we really enjoy it. But some studies have shown that in North America, additional income beyond 75,000 dollars a year stops impacting day-to-day happiness. 2 They often end up spending all the money, going into debt, and experience ruined social relationships.

So surely money can't really buy happiness. Well, recent studies suggest that the problem may actually be in the way that we spend money. 3 Studies show that people who spend their money on others feel happier. As for the people who spend money on themselves, their happiness is unchanged.

40ne experiment showed that instead of an organization writing a large check to a charity, dividing the amount up among employees, allowing them to contribute to a charity of their choice, increased their job satisfaction. Similarly, individuals that spend money on each other, as opposed to themselves, not only increase job satisfaction, but improve the team performance.

5 Interestingly, the specific way money is spent on others isn't important. Spending something on others is the important aspect of increasing your happiness.

A. The same principle has been tested on teams and organizations as well.

B. Money has more effect on the vast majority of people i the long run.

C. Instead of buying things for yourself, try giving some of it to other people and see how you feel.

D. And if so, how can we use it to our advantage?

E. Almost everywhere we look in the world, we see that giving money to others is positively related to happiness,

F. And while you're saving up for these greatest experiences, don't forget the daily joys in life.

G. In fact, people who win a lottery often report becoming extremely unhappy.
