1．How to Become Cleverer
Once a boy came to ask a fisherman how to become cleverer，because his mother always called him"foolish boy"．
"That's easy，"answered the fisherman．"I know one way to make you become cleverer．"
"Really？"
"Of course．It is said a fish head is good for brain．If you eat one，you'll become cleverer indeed．Pay only three pounds for one fish head．"The boy paid him three pounds and the fisherman cut off a fish head and handed it to him．
A raw fish head is not good-not even for a hungry boy to eat but the boy ate it up in two gulps．
"Do you feel anything？"asked the fisherman．
"Not in my head，"said the boy．
The boy lay on the ground and thought．"One whole fish costs only two pounds．I had paid him three pounds for the fish head．Why couldn't I have the whole fish for soup，a head for brain and one pound left over？"He jumped up and shouted at the fisherman．"You thief!You are fooling me!"The fisherman laughed，saying，"The fish head works now，you see．"

9．Happy birthday!Do birthday really make people happy？Of course they do．Birthdays celebrate the day when we were born．Besides，that extra candle on the cake suggests another year of growth and maturity（成熟）-or so we hope．We all like to imagine that we are getting wiser and not just older．Most of us enjoy seeing the wonder of growth in others，as well．For instance，seeing our children develop and learn new things makes us feel proud．For Americans，like people in most cultures，growing up is a wonderful process．But growing old？That is a different story．
Growing old is not exactly for people in youth-oriented （以年轻人为中心）American culture．Most Americans like to look young，act young and feel young．As the old saying goes，"You're young as you feel．"Older people joke about how many years young they are，rather than how many years old．People in some countries value the aged as a source of experience and wisdom．But Americans seem to favor those who are young，or at least"young at heart"．
Many older Americans find the"golden years"to be anything but golden．Economically，"senior citizens"often try just to get by．Retirement at the age of 65 brings a sharp decrease in personal income．Social security benefits usually cannot make up the difference．Older people may suffer from poor nutrition （营养），medical care，and housing．Some even have the experience of age discrimination（歧视）．American sociologist（社会学家） Pat Moore once dressed up like an older person and wandered city streets．She was often treated rudely--even cheated and robbed．However，dressed as a young person，she received much more respect．
Unfortunately，the elderly population in America is increasing fast．Why？People are living longer．Fewer babies are being born．And middle-aged"baby boom ers"（婴儿潮） are rapidly entering the group of the elderly．America may soon be a place where wrinkles（皱纹）are"in"．Marketing experts are already noticing this growing group of consumers．
37．Growing up is a wonderful thing becauseB．
A．people can celebrate their birthdays．
B．people can become more and mature and wiser．
C．people can receive many presents．
D．people will feel younger at heart．
38．We can infer from the second paragraph thatD．
A．young people lack experience and wisdom．
B．American older people often joke about their old age．
C．American culture is very young．
D．different countries have different opinions on the old age．
39．The underlined sentence （i n Paragraph 3）means"B．"
A．the golden years can make the old earn lots of money and receive good medical care
B．the old people in America are probably leading a hard life without good nutrition，medical care or housing．
C．the old in America have to retire at the age of 65．
D．American social security benefits are not good．
40．From the last paragraph we know that the underlined word"in"can be replaced byD．
A．serious    B．bad     C．disappearing slowly      D．growing fast．
6．The famous band has promised toreunite（重聚） for one last concert．
13．He is a veryinfluential（有影响的） man in the company，so everybody would like to follow his advice．
3．Children receive their earlyeducation（教育） from their parents at home．
10．Everybody has to eat，but do you eat a healthydiet（日常饮食）？
7．Last year，CCTV journalists approached pedestrians with their cameras，held a microphone to their mouth and asked a simple question，"Are you happy？"
The question has caught many interviewees off guard．Even Mo Yan，who just won a Nobel Prize，responded by saying，"I don't know．"
While the question has become a buzz phrase and the Internet plays host to heated discussions，we ask：What exactly is happiness？And how do you measure it？
In the 1776US Declaration of Independence，Thomas Jefferson set in writing the people's unalienable right to"Life，Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness".235years on，Wen Jiabao told the nation，"Everything we do is aimed at letting people live more happily．"At National People's Congress，officials agreed that increasing happiness would be a top target for the 12thfive-year plan．
US psychologist Ed Diener，author of Happiness：Unlocking the Mysteries of Psychological Wealth，describes happiness as"a combination of life satisfaction and having more positive than negative emotions"according to US broadcasting network PBS．This may sound straightforward enough，but it still doesn't explain what determines people's happiness．
Many argue that happiness is elusive and that there is no single source．It also means different things to different people．For some，happiness can be as simple as having enough cash．
Researchers believe happiness can be separated into two types：daily experiences of hedonic （享乐的） well-being； and evaluative well-being，the way people think about their lives as a whole．The former refers to the quality of living，whereas the latter is about overall happiness，including life goals and achievements．Happiness can cross both dimensions （范围）．
Li Jun，a psychologist and mental therapy practitioner at a Beijing clinic，says，"Happiness can mean both the most basic human satisfaction or the highest level of spiritual pursuit．It's a simple yet profound topic．"
Chen Shangyuan，21，a junior English major at Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics，said his idea of happiness always evolves．"At present it relates to how productive I am in a day，"he said．"It might be linked to job security or leisure time after I graduate．"
Then there is the question of measuring happiness．Does it depend on how many friends we have，or whether we own the latest smart phone？Is it even quantifiable？
Economists are trying to measure happiness in people's lives．Since 1972，Bhutan's GDP measurement has been replaced by a Gross National Happiness index．It is calculated according to the peoples'sense of being well-governed，their relationship with the environment，their satisfaction with economic development，and their sense of national belonging．
In 2009，US economist Joseph Stiglitz proposed"to shift emphasis from measuring economic production to measuring people's well-being"．But is well-being more easily measured？
63．From what Thomas Jefferson and Wen Jiabao mentioned in the passage，we knowB．
A．people's happiness is determined by great people
B．people's happiness is an important target for the development of a country
C．people in all countries have the right to ask the government for a happy life
D．people both in China and America are living a happy life
64．According to the passage，the writer may most likely agree thatD．
A．CCTV journalists are concerned about people's happiness out of sympathy
B．the question has led to heated discussions about who are the happiest people in China
C．Bhutan's new index shows that people there are the happiest in the world
D．it is not easy for us to decide what determines people's happiness

D．unimaginable
66．The best title of the passage isA．
A．Are you happy？

The child replied："I had （44）C   with God．"Before his mother could respond，he added："You know what？He's got the  （45）D   smile I've ever seen!"
（46）B，the old man，also radiant （容光焕发的）with  （47）A，returned to his home．His son was astonished by the look of （48）A   on his face and asked："Dad，what did you do today that made you so happy？"He replied："I （49）B  cakes in the park with God．"Before his son responded，he added："You know，he's much  （50）C   than I expected．"
