2．piness is not always the final result．So how does one decide which goals will end in personal happiness and which will not？How do the things in life affect personal happiness？
The most important thing is people's attitude toward life，which can greatly affect their personal levels of happiness and satisfaction with life．
Psychologists have known for some time that optimism is a good way to fight against unhappiness．It's probably no secret that optimistic people are considered to be much happier people than pessimists．There are specific characteristic features optimists have （pleasant ways of thinking），that bring them more success，greater health，increased life satisfaction，and other good things．If you became an optimist，it can mean that you became a very happy person，despite your circumstances，and it can actually bring more things into your life to be happy about．‘If you are optimistic and you think life is going to get better，it will become a self-fulfillment prediction．'says one of the scientists．‘Happy people manage to look on the bright side，even if they meet big problems on their way．'
 Positive psychologists believe that people can learn how to become happy，that everyone can teach themselves to see a half empty glass as half full．All they have to do is to spend time thinking about all the things that have gone right for them，rather than complaining what has gone badly．But people who are depressed usually think and worry about something that went wrong in the past．
81．What can affect people's personal levels of happiness according to the passage？

11．You arrive on time at the Smith's house to babysit three-year-old Max．When Mrs．Smith invites you into the house，you find Max sitting on the floor with an iPad．You look around for a book，and then you realize the iPad is teaching him how to read through a series of songs and games．Mrs．Smith looks as though she couldn't be prouder of her son for playing such educational games．
Technology is becoming more important in our everyday life．From playing a game to asking Sir for directions to a restaurant，we are depending heavily on our handheld device．Companies such as Fisher-Price and Open Solutions are making apps such as"Laugh and Learn"，"Baby Hear and Read"and"Baby's First Puzzle"These apps are marketed to parents and their babies．Some companies say that their apps will help the baby learn to read while others promise skills such as identifying shapes and sounds．Many parents say that these games have helped their children a lot．
Recently the campaign for a Commercial-Free Childhood，a Boston-based group，has been accusing companies，who make these supposedly educational games，of false advertising．The campaign believes that these games are doing very little to improve the education of young children．
"What babies need for healthy brain development is active play，hand-on creative play and face-to-face interaction．"says Susan Linn，the group's director．This means that when you are babysitting little Max，you should play board games with him or games that require him to use his own imagination．This will help him to learn not only skills that the games teach him，but he will learn social skills．The American Academy of Pediatrics agrees with Linn，discouraging any electronic time for babies under 2，while older children should be limited to one to two hours a day．

21．We can learn that many parents think the apps such as"Laugh and Learn"areD．

17．[1]The word advertising refers to any kind of public announcement that brings products and services to the attention of people．Throughout history，advertising has been a good way to promote （促进） the trading and selling of goods．In the Middle Ages，businessmen employed"town criers"to read public messages aloud to promote their goods．When printing was invented in the 15th century，pages of advertisements could be printed easily and were either hung in public places or put in books．
[2]By the end of the 17th century，when newspapers were beginning to be read by more people，printed materials became an important way to promote products and services．The London Gazette was the first newspaper to set aside a place just_____________________．This was so successful that by the end of the century several companies started businesses for the purpose of making newspaper ads．
[3]Advertising spread quickly throughout the 18th century．Ad writers were starting to pay more attention to the design of the ad text．Everything，from clothes to drinks，was promoted with clever methods such as words organized in eye-catching patterns，the use of pretty pictures and expressions easy to remember．They were successful in helping advertising develop quickly．
[4]Near the end of the 19th century，companies that were devoted to the production of ads came to be known as"advertising agencies （广告商）"．The agencies developed new ways to get people to think of themselves as members of a group．Throughout the 20th century，advertising agencies spread the belief that people could be happy only if they bought the"right"products．

7．Sleepless in Seattle？Hardly．West Virginia is where people are really staying awake，according to the first government study to monitor state-by-state differences in sleeplessness．West Virginians'lack of sleep was about double the national rate，perhaps a side effect of health problems such as obesity（肥胖），experts said．
Nearly 1 in 5 West Virginians said they did not get a single good night's sleep in the previous month．The national average was about 1 in 10，according to a federal health survey．Tennessee，Kentucky and Oklahoma also were notably above average with nearly 1 in 7 people reporting in a lack of sleep．In contrast，North Dakota was below average，with only 1 in 13 reporting that degree of sleeplessness．Health officials do not know the exact reasons for the differences．
In the survey，people weren't required to answer the question why they were not able to get enough rest or sleep．But experts noted several possible explanations：West Virginia ranks at or near the bottom of the nation in several important measurements of health，including obesity，smoking，heart disease and the proportion of adults with disabilities．
Studies have increasingly found that sleeping problems often occurred among people with certain health problems，including obesity．"You would expect to see poorer sleep within a chronically （慢性地） diseased population，"noted Dr Ronald Chervin，a sleep disorders expert in University of Michigan．
Financial stress and work shifts（倒班）can play roles in sleeplessness，too，Chervin added．He suggested those may be contributing factors in West Virginia，an economically depressed state with tens of thousands of people working in coal mining．
The report was based on results of an annual telephone survey of more than 400，000 Americans，including at least 3，900 in each state．The survey did not include people who use only cellphones．
1．What is the main idea of Paragraph 1？（No more than 15 words．）West Virginians suffer from lack of sleep the most perhaps due to health problems．
2．What does the underlined word"notably"in Paragraph 2 mean？（No more than 3 words．）Highly．
3．What was the possible reason for the high rate of sleeplessness in West Virginia according to Paragraph 3？（No more than 12 words．）West Virginia had a low level of several important measurements of health．
4．List three factors that contribute to sleeplessness based on the passage．
（No more than 8 words．）
①being too fat②financial stress③work shifts．
5．How was the research carried out？（No more than 10 words．）By interviewing over 400，000 Americans on the telephone．．
14．However important we may regard school life to be，there is no denying the fact that children spend more time at home than in the classroom．Therefore，the great influence of parents cannot be ignored or discounted by the teacher．They can become strong allies of the school personnel or they can consciously or unconsciously hinder and frustrate curricular objectives．
Administrators have been aware of the need to keep parents informed of the newer methods used in schools．Many principles have conducted workshops explaining such matters as the reading readiness program，manuscript writing and developmental mathematics．Moreover，the classroom teacher，with the permission of the supervisors，can also play an important role in enlightening parents．The informal tea and the many interviews carried on during the year，as well as new ways of reporting pupils'progress，can significantly aid in achieving a harmonious interplay between school and home．
To illustrate，suppose that a father has been drilling Junior in arithmetic processes night after night．In a friendly interview，the teacher can help the parent sublimate （升华） his natural paternal interest into productive channels．He might be persuaded to let Junior participate in discussing the family budget，buying the food，using a standard or measuring cup at home，setting the clock，calculating mileage on a trip and engaging in scores of other activities that have a mathematical basis．
If the father follows the advice，it is reasonable to assume that he will soon realize his son is making satisfactory progress in mathematics，and at the same time，enjoying the work．Too often，however，teachers'conferences with parents are devoted to petty （不重要的） accounts of children's misdeeds，complaints about laziness and poor work habits，and suggestion for penalties and rewards at home．
What is needed is a more creative approach in which the teacher，as a professional adviser，plants ideas in parents'minds for the best utilization of the many hours that the child spends out of the classroom．
In this way，the school and the home join forces in fostering the fullest development of youngsters'capacities．
（Note：Answer the questions or complete the statements with NO MORE THAN 14 WORDS）
81．Why do parents also have great influence on children？Because their children spend more time with them than with the teacher．
82．Through which ways can the teacher play an important role in enlightening parents？Through informal tea，interviews and reporting pupil's progress．
83．According to the teacher，that parents should let the boyengage in activities that have a mathematical basisif he wants to sublimate his natural paternal interest into productive channels in teaching his son arithmetic．
84．A more creative approach is needed forthe best utilization of the many hoursof children out of classroom．
11．They have _________us $150，000for the house．Shall we take it？（　　）
A．providedB．suppliedC．shownD．offered
12．Thank you for delivering my laundry it ________ me a trip．（　　）
