15.The malls were filled with people seeking gifts for their loved ones.Some of the malls remained open around the clock,partly to satisfy our needs to buy gifts.
Behind the materialistic aspect of shopping for gifts lies the idea of caring,being attentive to the desires of special people in our lives.However,to use a well-worn play on words:it is our presence,not our presents,that truly counts.Many of us,unfortunately,can be so inattentive,even in the presence of our loved ones,that we might as well not be there at all.
Attention is one of the greatest gifts we can give each other.Companies around the globe spend billions every year on advertising to catch our attention for just a short moment at a time.Whole industries-media,entertainment,education-rely on the precious gift of our attention for their continued existence.A baby lacking attention for a long time is likely to he psychologically unhealthy.
In earlier times,both diet and attention could be left unregulated(没人管的)without major cause for concern.There were natural checks and balances:limited availability of food meant few got fat,for example.Similarly,in bygone times we might have spent a few hours communicating with the village storyteller,today,watching an entire TV series,while speaking to nobody,is common.In traditional societies,with smaller population,everyone would get a fair deal of attention.On many issues we might go to see Grandma or Grandpa; now we have Google and Wikipedia.
"She just wants attention."people tend to think little of those doing things simply for attention.But the truth is that human beings need attention,and giving attention to each other is,to a large extent,what human civilization is based upon.This perhaps explains the runaway success(一举成功)of social networking sites such as Twitter and Facebook.While we use such sites for"micro blogging","idea voicing"and"status updates"-the reality is that we are often doing no more or less than fulfilling our basic human drive for attention exchange.
I friend you,you friend me,I retweet you,you retweet me.The charming case with which we can now get and give attention is why many people appear overly attached to their smartphones.It is also a vicious(恶性)circle.As ever more people are busy exchanging attention online,there is increasingly less attention to be paid in the real world,which forces more people to seek their attention exchange online,or else risk attentuion-starvation.
The very nature of attention exchange is being rapidly transformed,and there is a danger that some of us will develop unhealthy practices.Just as eating red meat every day is a bad idea,so it is with too much attention exchange.The biological consequences of our technological advancement in food production are highly visible; heart disease,diabetes and obesity.The consequences of our transformed attention exchanges will be psychological and social,and so may take longer to identify,but they will be equally damaging.
Face-to-face attention is becoming rarer,and therefore more valuable.In a sense it is priceless.And it is a gift that can be given all-year-round.

20.Happy people work differently.They're more productive,more creative,and willing to take greater risks.And new research suggests that(51)Cmight influence how firms work,too.
Companies located in places with happier people invest more,according to a recent research paper.(52)B,firms in happy places spend more on R&D,which stands for research and development.That's because happiness is linked to the kind of longer-term thinking(53)Dfor making investments for the future.
The researchers wanted to know if the optimism (乐观) and hobbies for risk-taking that come with happiness would(54)Dthe way companies invested.So they compared U.S.cities'average happiness(55)Bby Gallup polling (民意调查) with the investment activity of publicly traded firms in those areas.
(56)Aenough,firms'investment and R&D intensity were related with the happiness of the area in which they were headquartered.But is it really happiness that's linked to investment,or could something else about happier cities(57)Awhy firms there spend more on R&D?To find out,the researchers controlled for various (58)Bthat might make firms more likely to invest-like size,industry,and sales-and for indicators that a place was desirable to live in,like(59)Cin wages or population.The link between happiness and investment generally held even after accounting for these things.
The(60)Abetween happiness and investment was particularly strong for younger firms,which the authors regard as"less codified (法典化的) decision-making process"and the possible presence of"younger and less(61)Dmanagers who are more likely to be influenced by emotions."The relationship was also stronger in places where happiness was spread more(62)D.Firms seem to invest more in places where most people are relatively happy,rather than in places with happiness inequality,or large(63)Cin the distribution of well-being.
While this doesn't prove that happiness causes firms to invest more or to take a longer-term view,the authors believe it at least hints at that possibility.It's not hard to imagine that local culture and emotions would help(64)Ahow executives think about the future.Just ask anyone who's spent time in Silicon Valley."It surely seems reasonable that happy people would be more forward-thinking and creative and(65)BR&D more than the average,"said one researcher.

7.Bongos was a happy,artistic girl. She had one big ambition to play the drums in a band.But one big obstacle lay in her way.To be good enough to play in a band,Brenda had to practice a lot,but she lived next-door to a lot of old people.Many of them are sick.She knew that the sound of beating drums would really get on their nerves.So,she had tried playing in the strangest places:a basement,a kitchen,and even in a shower. But there was always someone it would annoy.
One day,while watching a science documentary on TV,she heard that sound cannot travel in space,because there's no air.At that moment,Brenda Bongos decided to become a sort of musical astronaut.
With the help of a lot of time,books and work,Brenda built a space bubble.This was a big glass ball connected to a machine which sucked out all the air inside. All that would be left inside was a drum kit(成套设备) and a chair. Brenda got into the space suit she had made,entered the bubble,turned on the machine,and played those drums like a wild child.
It wasn't long before Brenda Bongos came very famous.Many people came to see her play in her space bubble.Shortly afterwards she came out of the bubble and stated giving concerts.Her fame spread so much that the government suggested that she be part of a unique space journey.Finally,Brenda was a real musical astronaut,and had gone far beyond her first ambition of playing drums in a band.
Years later,when asked how she had achieved all this,she thought for a moment,and said:"If those old people next-door hadn't mattered so much to me,I wouldn't have found a solution,and none of this would have ever happened."

56.Why did Brenda try to play in the strangest places?B
A.Because she didn't want others to hear her play.
B.Because she didn't mean to disturb others.
C.Because she didn't have her own room.
D.Because she didn't like her neighbors.
57.Brenda started to give concertsA.
A.after she practiced in her space bubble
B.when she became part of the unique space journey
C.after she became a real musical astronaut
D.when people came to see her in the space bubble

5.The most popular trend in self--help theories these days is about positive thinking.Many  successful authors tell us that the best way to succeed and be happy is to avoid thinking about  failure and to focus on good things.One of these theories comes from a small book called How  Full is  Your Bucket(水桶)?by Tom Rath and Donald O.Clifton.The idea behind their work  is fairly simple,positive thinking from yourself and others will make your life better.
The authors say that the idea for their work is based on a historical case.During the Korean War,a large number of American troops were being held prisoners,and many of them  died in prison.A psychologist found that the reason for their death was the feel of total lack of hope the prisoners had.In other words,the authors of How Full Is Your Bucket?say it was  because of negative thinking.The story shows us the terrible power of negative emotions.
The authors of the book also believe that every interaction (相互影响) we have with other people affects us deeply.Our lives are shaped by our relationships with others.The authors  believe that experiences with others are always either good or bad but never neutral.This  brings us to the bucket idea.Imagine that everyone has a bucket.Every positive interaction  adds to the bucket,and every negative interaction takes away from it.It works whether it's  another person's negativity or your own; they both take away from your own bucket.The  best way to live is with a full bucket,which is the result of positive thinking and interactions  with the people around us.Positivity is almost like a magic cure,according to the look.It gives us energy and makes us stronger,healthier,happier and more successful.Is the secret really that simple?It's up to you to decide.

28.According to the text,when someone asks you"how full is your bucket?",what does he mean?D
A.How hard do you work?
B.How unhappy are you?
C.How disappointed do you feel?
D.How much optimistic energy do you have?
29.The authors of the book believe the prisoned American soldiers in the Korean War were killed byC.
A.terrible diseases
B.lack of food and clean water
C.the idea that they're going to die
D.cruel mental and physical punishment
30.According to the bucket theory,when interacting with others,if you are holding negative  beliefs,you areA.
A.eptying both your and others'buckets
B.emptying just your own bucket
C.filling up your own bucket
D.filling up others'buckets
31.How can we live with a full bucket?C
A.Avoid communicating with discouraged people and focus on our own happiness.
B.Carry a bucket of water with us wherever we go.C.Raise our positive energy and bring hope to others all the time.
D.Blame others for being unhappy and force them to smile.
