In the past two weeks we have looked at the happiness formula defined by positive psychologist Martin Seligman, where H (happiness) = S (your biological set point for feeling happy) + C (the conditions of your life) + V (the voluntary choices you make). This week we look at the conditions in life that can increase our happiness level.Step 1: Peace and quietJoin Jon Haydt in his excellent book, "The Happiness Hypothesis (假说)", notes that research shows that we can never completely adapt to new or long-lasting noise pollution. Loud noises cause one of our most primitive fear responses and we can never fully relax if we are surrounded by intrusive (扰人的) noise. Noisy neighbors are one of the most emotional causes of domestic upset for a very good reason. It is essential to have some peace and quiet every day. If you are unfortunate enough to live somewhere noisy, persist with complaining to your landlord. Additionally, try1/5What will happen to a person if he is surrounded by intrusive noise?A. He can never fully relax.B. He will have a poor health.C. He will have a bad relationship.D. He can adapt to it very soon.
If you get seasick easily, you may prepare for boat rides with some medicine and other helpful stuff. Now there's one more remedy: Timing your breathing to control the nauseating (作呕的)motion. The technique presumably works because it helps control gravity sensors (传感器)in the abdomen (腹部)—a lesser-known input to our fine-tuned balance system. The brain is traditionally thought to sense body position in three ways. The inner ears sense motions of the head; the eyes see where the head is; and tiny sensory organs in muscles and tendons (筋)sense where the rest of the body is. More recently, researchers have realized that sensors in many other parts of the body also play a role: in the abdomen, the lower organs, and even blood vessels. As long as all of these sensors send matching signals to the brain, we feel directed. But if one or two don't match up, the brain gets confused and we become nauseated. According to the passage, which of the following helps control gravity sensors in the abdomen? A. Timing one's breathing.B. The nauseating motion.C. Some medicine.D. Our fine-tuned balance system.
The brain is traditionally thought to sense body position in three ways.

As long as all of these sensors send matching signals to the brain, we feel directed. But if one or two don't match up, the brain gets confused and we become nauseated.Scientists knew the most sickening motions closely match the rate of natural breathing; they also knew that people naturally tend to breathe in time with a motion. In fact, Navy seamen in World War II discovered that they could use certain breathing tricks to combat motion sickness. But no one had ever tested whether breathing out of time with a motion could prevent nausea.35. When do people get nauseated?A. When one or two sensors don't match up.B. When the brain senses body position in three ways.C. When sensors send matching signals to the brain.D. When we feel directed.

Imagine working at a school where you rarely have to use your disciplinary skills, the students are motivated to succeed and lead well-rounded lives by participating various activities. Even better, imagine a parent-teacher conference where the parents respect you and your profession, and your professional development is of concern to the school administration. These are the kind of benefits I have reaped from my move into an international teaching career.Prior to securing my position as an international teacher in Thailand, I worked for more than three years in England. While I enjoyed my time there and learned a lot from my colleagues, there were parts of the job I didn't like, and at times found a little soul-destroying. That's one of the reasons why I now teach at an international school.When I was teaching in England, I often found I spent a considerable portion of my time on discipline. This was time that was taken away from my role as an educator and affected the chances of my students excelling. In my role as an international educator, I don't have half or even a quarter of the discipline issues I had when I was teaching in England. It's not because I teach fewer students, I still teach classes of 23 to 25 students. The reason why I spend less time on discipline is that teaching is a respected profession in Thailand and therefore teachers are treated very well by the whole community.Here in Thailand the majority of students are motivated to succeed academically. The whole school has a culture of rewarding success. In England I was constantly giving of myself to keep my students motivated and believing that they could achieve well if they put in the effort. After a while this enthusiasm became draining. Now I can concentrate on delivering content and opening my students' eyes to the wider world around them because they are so motivated to learn.If you aren't feeling the passion for education that originally inspired you to become a teacher, perhaps you should be looking at moving overseas. You can experience many benefits from teaching overseas. The additional benefit for me is that the salary is higher than I got in England.1、 In what aspect did the job in England benefit the author?A.Knowing the ways to discipline students well.B.Knowing how to motivate students to learn.C.Learning much from his or her workmates.D.Learning how to enjoy his or her time.2、 Why does the author seldom use disciplinary skills when teaching in Thailand?E.Students there are self-disciplined and teachers are respected.F.He does not know how to discipline the foreign students.G.He has fewer students to deal with in his classes in Thailand.H.The school administration doesn't allow teachers to use these skills.3、 What happened to the author when he taught in England?I.He often encountered disrespectful behavior from parents.J.He seldom found hard-working students.K.He lost enthusiasm to keep the students motivated at last.L.He had no patience to teach bad students.4、 For those who are losing passion for education, what is the author's attitude towards their teaching overseas?M.Neutral.N.Indifferent.O.Disapproving.P.Supportive.5、 What can be inferred from the passage?Q.The author dislikes the students in England.R.The author got tired of teaching in England.S.Teachers receive much respect in England.T.Teachers are very low-paid in England.
GOOD DEEDS NEVER GO UNREWARDEDI!!His name was Fleming, and he was a poor Scottish farmer. One day, while trying to make a living for his family, he heard a cry for help coming from a nearby bog (沼泽地). He dropped his tools and ran to the bog. There, mired (陷于泥坑) to his waist in black muck was a terrified boy, screaming and struggling to free himself. Farmer Fleming saved the lad from what could have been a slow and terrifying death. The next day, a fancy carriage pulled up to the Scotsman’s sparse (稀疏的) surroundings. An elegantly dressed nobleman stepped out and introduced himself as the father of the boy Farmer Fleming had saved."I want to repay you," said the nobleman. "You saved my son’s life." "No," the Scottish farmer replied, waving off the offer. At that moment, the farmer’s own son came to the door of the family hovel (茅舍)."Is that your son?" "the nobleman asked. “Yes, ”the farmer replied proudly. "I’ll make you a deal. Let me take him and give him a good education. If the lad is anything like his father, he’ll grow to a man you can be proud of."And that he did. In time, Farmer Fleming’s son graduated from St. Mary’s Hospital Medical School in London, and went on to become known throughout the world as the famous Sir Alexander Fleming, the discoverer of Penicillin.

The Harry Potter series, written by J.K. Rowling, is perhaps the most popular set of novels of the modern era. With seven books and many successful films to its name, the series has gathered about 15 billion dollars in sales. How did the series become so popular? The reason can be broken down into several areas.The first book in the series was rejected 12 times before it was picked up by Bloomsbury—a small publisher in England. So receiving this contract was Rowling's first step to success. However, getting a book contract does not ensure the success of a book. The story was soon loved by children and adults alike. In light of this, Bloomsbury Publishing published a second version of the books with “adult” (less colorful and more boring) book covers. This made it easier for a full range of ages to enjoy the series.Another factor that worked like a charm was that the publisher and Rowling herself, through the books, conducted midnight releases, promotions, and pre-ordering more readers. Customers who feared that their local bookstore would run out of copies responded by pre-ordering over 700,000 copies before the July 8, 2000 release.What does the underlined word “releases” (Para. 3) mean?A. The activity that frees or expresses energy or emotion.B. The announcement about the book’s publishing information.C. The sales of books that is available only at midnight.

question or statement.Hot pot is a traditional dish in China. It is believed to date back more than 1,000 years to the time of the Jin Dynasty. Hot pot's origins can be found in the dining practices of Mongolian horsemen who rode across the steppe and into northern China. Legend has it that the Mongols used their helmets as pots to simmer (炖) broth (汤底) over open fires, and cooked chunks of meat in the broth.Hot pot cooking seems to have spread to northern China during the Tang Dynasty. In the regional variations developed with different ingredients such as seafood. In the centuries that witnessed the growth of the Song Dynasty, hot pot moved — and changed — further south, with each successive region adapting it to their local ingredients and tastes.The ingredients in a hot pot vary a lot from region to region. Perhaps the most famous hot pot is the Chongqing or Sichuan hot pot. It features a dark red broth chock-full (塞满了的) of spices, chili peppers, and the uniquely mouth-numbing Sichuan peppers. In Beijing and elsewhere in the north, hot pot broth tends to be mild and, compared to its racy southern "cousins", a little light. In the northeast of China, a kind of local sauerkraut (酸菜) is used to add some tang (强烈的味道), making the broth a bit sour. People can choose a version of hot pot according to their taste.1 Hot pot is believed to date back more than 1,000 years to the time of _______.A. the Jin Dynasty B. the Tang DynastyC. the Song Dynasty D. the Yuan Dynasty

The increase in international business and in foreign investment has created a need for executives with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. Americans, however, have not been well trained in either area and, consequently, have not enjoyed the same level of success in negotiation in an international arena as have their foreign counterparts. Negotiating is the process of communicating back and forth for the purpose of reaching an agreement. It involves persuasion and compromise, but in order to participate in either one, the negotiators must understand the ways in which people are persuaded and how compromise is reached within the culture of the negotiation. In many international business negotiations abroad, Americans are perceived as wealthy and impersonal. It often appears to the foreign negotiator that the American represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation that can afford to pay the price without bargaining further. The American negotiator’s role becomes that of an impersonal supplier of information and cash. In studies of American negotiators abroad, several traits have been identified that may serve to confirm this stereotypical perception, while undermining the negotiator’s position. Two traits in particular that cause cross-cultural misunderstanding are directness and impatience on the part of the American negotiator. Furthermore, American negotiators often insist on realizing short-term goals. Foreign negotiators, on the other hand, may value the relationship established between negotiators and may be willing to invest time in it for long-term benefits. In order to solidify the relationship, they may opt for indirect interactions without regard for the time involved in getting to know the other negotiator. Clearly, perceptions and differences in values affect the outcomes of negotiations and the success of negotiators. For Americans to play a more effective role in international business negotiations, they must put forth more effort to improve cross-cultural understanding. [共5题](1)What kind of manager is needed in present international business and foreign investment? [本题2分]A. The man who represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation. B. The man with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. C. The man who is wealthy and impersonal. D. The man who can negotiate with his foreign counterparts.
