11．My grandfather Andy Anderson is 99．His life story is one for the big screen--he met my grandmother on a Saturday，and they married on the following Saturday．They stayed together until my grandma died 67years later．
Without going to college，Andy worked his way to the top．He became the manager of the dairy department of Safeway．He earned the nickname Mr．Cheese，which eventually turned into Grandpa Cheese among the family．He has taught me a lot and here's what he has learned in his 99years．
Always maintain a good sense of humor．Find something humorous in every single situation．Never be too good to start at the bottom．Exercise every day，even when you don't feel like it．Don't spend more money than you make．Save your money now and spend it later．
You must be able to forgive，even if it's difficult to do．Love is not always easy； sometimes you have to work at it．Your family is the most precious thing you will ever have in life．
If you are faced with a problem，don't delay trying to figure it out．But if there's no way to figure it out，you have to forget about it．Make sure you're doing what you love； don't be afraid to follow those dreams you have for yourself．
School education is important，but not necessary．Life can be an education in itself．Explore your world and stay curious； Having a bad job is better than having no job at all； Try not to take yourself so seriously．Don't ever be afraid to be your true self．Your life is delicate，and if you fail to take care of yourself properly，you'11spoil．
Life is a gift that you must unwrap．It's up to you to determine if what's inside will lead you to happiness or frustration．You have the power to make that decision for yourself．
All of above come from Grandpa Cheese．If you're wondering what Grandpa Cheese is up to these days，he's riding his motorized scooter （踏板车） around Benicia，CA，and"planning on what I'm going to do when I start to get old，"he says．
29．Which of the following agrees with Grandpa's philosophy？D
A．Exercise if you like it．
B．A good job secures a happy life．
C．Happiness makes longer life．
D．Love needs efforts．

8．I believe children have a very pure sense of humor．Well，I would like to share my experiences with you．
The other day when I was out with a friend and her daughter Jane at a restaurant，Jane ordered an apple dessert，which was the most attractive dish in that restaurant．However，when she had a bite of the pie，she shouted loudly，"Mom，why does it look good but tastes like rubber？"My friend was uneasy．Then the waiter gave us another dish．
A child can say funny things．I was at a friend's home for tea and her son，Mark，wanted her to get up．His mom replied，"I can't，because my foot has fallen asleep now．"Little Mark then sang a song and asked，"Mom，will it wake up now？"We laughed together．
The other day we were having an interesting conversation over lunch and my friend，an animal activist （积极分子），was arguing with another group member．Her son Tommy suddenly stood up，"Mom，people should never be allowed to shoot extinct animals!"That was funny and the child did manage to turn the argument into a pleasant conversation．
Well，children sometimes really surprise us．I think we can have a lot to learn from them．They can help us understand the simple world through their eyes．

2．Scientists have linked the"fat gene"with the"happy gene"．They believed there could be genetic evidence which explains why fat people are often happier than their skinny friends．The breakthrough could be an explanation for why fat characters，such as The Laughing Policeman and Father Christmas are often portrayed as joyful and kindly．
FTO is the major genetic contributor to obesity．But it is also associated with an eight percent reduction in the risk of depression．Researchers at McMaster University in Canada had been investigating whether there was a link between obesity and depression．They found the opposite was true．
The study analyzed 17，200DNA samples from participants in 21countries．Results showed people with FTO gene-the fat gene-showed significantly less signs of depression．This finding was confirmed by analyzing in three additional international studies．
Professor David Meyre said，"We set out to follow a different path，starting from the assumption that both depression and obesity deal with brain activity．We thought that obesity genes may be linked to depression．The difference of eight percent is not very obvious．But，we have discovered a molecular（分子的）basis for depression．It is the first evidence that an FTO obesity gene is associated with protection against major depression．
In a recent interview，actress Lisa Riley said she was more than comfortable with her size．She said she is a"big，really happy"girl who is lucky enough to be confident in her own skin，and added，"Many people want to be thinner．Not me．""I genuinely love being different and it drives me mad that people don't believe I'm happy with what I am．"

19．We like to think our intelligence is self-made； it happens inside our heads，the product of our inner thoughts alone．But the rise of Google，Wikipedia and other online tools has made many people question the impact of these technologies on our brains．Is typing in"Who has played James Bond in the movies？"the same as our knowledge about the names like Roger Moore，Timothy Dalton，Pierce Brosnan and Daniel Craig？Can we say we know the answer as long as we know how to rapidly get the information on Google？
Here the question is about how we define intelligence itself．The answer appears to be interesting，because the evidence from psychological studies suggests that much of our intelligence comes from how we coordinate ourselves with other people and our environment．
An influential theory among psychologists is that we're cognitive misers（认知吝啬者）．This is the idea that we are unwilling to do mental work unless we have to．We try to avoid thinking things fully when a short cut is available．If you've ever voted for the presidential candidate（总统候选人） with the most honest smile，or chosen a restaurant based on how many people are already sitting in there，then you are a cognitive miser．The theory explains why we'd much rather type a zip code into Google Maps than memorize and recall the location of a place-it's so much easier to do so．
Research shows that people don't tend to rely on their memories for things they can easily access．Buildings can somehow disappear from pictures we're looking at，or the people we're talking to can be changed with someone else，and often we won't notice-a phenomenon called"change blindness"．This isn't an example of human stupidity-far from it，in fact-this is an example of mental efficiency．The mind relies on the world as a better record than memory．
Philosophers have suggested that thinking is really happening in the environment as much as it is happening in our brains．The philosopher Andy Clark called humans"natural born cyborgs（电子人）"，those naturally capable of absorbing and combining new tools，ideas and abilities．In Clark's view，the route to a solution is not the issue-having the right tools really does mean you know the answers，just as much as already knowing the answer．
Rather than being forced to rely on our own resources for everything，we can share our knowledge．Technology keeps track of things for us so we don't have to，while large systems of knowledge serve the needs of society as a whole．I don't know how a computer works，or how to grow vegetables，but that knowledge is out there and I can get to benefit．The internet provides even more potential to share this knowledge．Wikipedia is one of the best examples-an increasingly large database of knowledge from which everyone can benefit．
So as well as having a physical environment-like the rooms or buildings we live or work in-we also have a mental environment，which means that when I ask you where your mind is，you shouldn't point toward the centre of your forehead．As research shows，our minds are made up just as much by the people and tools around us as they are by the brain cells inside our skull．
