15．Smart people may be far happier with their own company than meeting friends．A new study has found that for intelligent people，the more frequently they socialize with friends，the less satisfied they are with life．
The findings come from two evolutionary psychologists who challenge the modern view that the more social contact we have the happier we will likely be．Satoshi Kanazawa of the London School of Economics and Norman Li of Singapore Management University propose that the core social skills developed in our ancient past still have a great influence on our happiness today．They propose that the"savannah theory"is at the root of modern happiness．This theory dictates that the factors which made early humans satisfied are still true with modern life．
Using data from a long-term study，which surveyed adults from 18to 28，they applied the theory to explain the findings of self-reported levels of life satisfaction．The pair focused on just two of many factors，which they say characterize basic differences between modern life and the way our ancestors lived-population density and how frequently we interact with friends．As might be expected，they found people living in more densely populated areas reported lower levels of life satisfaction．
"For anyone who deals bravely with the boring routine of the rush hour commute in a city，this is no surprise．Also as we might expect，more frequent socialization with friends had a more positive association with levels of life satisfaction．But these two factors interact strongly with intelligence．"
The pair explained that among the extremely intelligent more frequent social interaction is actually linked with reduced satisfaction．
They believe there may be a mismatch between the way we have evolved and the rapid lives we lead today-where society has left our minds and bodies struggling to keep up．They also believe smarter individuals may be able to better adapt to the challenges of modern life，and may find it easier to leave ancestral social roots behind in order to move ahead．For the most intelligent among us，it may be that there is conflict between pursuing greater goals and being tied to our evolutionary past．

B．the more frequently people socialize with their friends，the more satisfied they are with life．

19．It is not a good idea to interrupt the actor Richard Griffiths in the middle of a play．During the past year he has stopped performances at the National Theatre when mobile phones have gone off，and he threw one member of the audience out of a West End play for failing to switch off his phone．
So when a mobile rang out for the third time during his performance as Hector，a teacher，in Alan Bennett's The History Boys at the Broadhurst Theatre in New York，he spoke angrily："I am not going to compete with these electronic devices"．
Griffiths'actions led a debate in the UK theatre world over whether phones should be forbidden by law from British theatres，too．Actors are already asking the government to legalise （使合法化） the use of electronic screening （屏蔽） devices to block mobile phone signals from theatres．
Technology companies market"blocking"devices that send out a high-powered signal on the same frequency （频率） as a mobile phone，occupying all the available spectrums （频谱）．
But these are forbidden in many countries because they might prevent emergency calls from being made．
Rosemary Squire，president of the Society of West End Theatre and co-founder of the Ambassador Theatre Group，which operates 12West End theatres，said，"Phones are one of the biggest operational problems theatres face．We should look for equipment that could block phones or make a London-wide theatre rule．"
Nick Allott，the managing director of Sir Cameron Mackintosh's theatre group，said，"We would all welcome some ways of preventing ringing phones，but doctors and emergency workers need to be  paged in a theatre and we mustn't prevent that．"

14．What do you want to be when you grow up？A teacher？A doctor？How about an ice-cream taster？
Yes，there really is a job where you can get paid to taste ice-cream．Just ask John Harrion，an"Official Taste Tester"for the past 21years．Testing helps manufacturers to be sure of a product's quality．During his career Harrison has been responsible for approving large quantities of the sweet ice cream-as well as for developing over 75flavors （味道）．
Some people think that it would be easy to do this job，after all，you just have to like ice cream，right？No-there's more to the job than that，says Harrison，who has a degree in chemistry．He points out that a dairy or food-science degree would be very useful to someone wanting a career in this"cool"field．
In a typical morning on the job，Harrison tastes and assesses 60ice-cream samples．He lets the ice cream warm up to about 12℉．Harrison explains，"You get more flavor from warmer ice cream，which is why some kids like to stir it，creating ice-cream soup．"
While the ice cream warms up，Harrison looks over the samples and grades each one on its appearance．"Tasting begins with the eyes，"he explains．He checks to see if the ice cream is attractive and asks himself，"Does the product have the color expected from that flavor？"Next it's time to taste!
Continuing to think up new ideas，try out new flavors，and test samples from so many kinds of ice cream each day keeps Harrison busy but happy-working at one cool job．
28．What is John Harrison's job？B
A．An official．
B．An ice-cream taster．
C．A chemist．
