A beautiful woman entered the plane and looked around in search of her seat. She found her seat next to a man who had no hands. She called an air hostess (女乘务员) and said unhappily, “I won’t be able to travel comfortably in this seat. I want to change my seat.”
The air hostess was shocked to hear this from a woman who appeared to be beautiful. She looked around for vacant seats but didn’t find any. She told the woman, “There’s no vacant seat in this economy class (经济舱), but it’s our responsibility (责任) to take care of our passengers. I’ll go to discuss this with our leader. Please wait for a while.”
After some time, the air hostess came back to the woman and said, “I’m very sorry for the trouble caused for you. On this plane, only one seat is vacant and it’s in the business class. I discussed it with the leader and we have made a great decision—a person from this economy class will be allowed to travel in the business class.”
The woman was very excited. But before she could say something, the air hostess moved towards the man and asked him, “Sir, will you please go to the business class? We don’t want you to feel uncomfortable traveling with an impolite passenger.” Hearing this, some passengers welcomed this decision by clapping (鼓掌).
The man stood up and said, “I was once a policeman and I lost my hands when fighting against some bad people. Thank you for your kindness.”

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了一位蛮横的女士在坐飞机时遇到一位残疾人,因为歧视残疾人想要换座位的故事。
4题详解】
细节理解题。根据“She found her seat next to a man who had no hands.”和“I won’t be able to travel comfortably in this seat.”可知,那位女士不愿意和残疾人坐一起。故选D。
【5题详解】
词义猜测题。根据“but didn’t find any. She told the woman, ‘There’s no vacant seat in this economy class ...’”可推测,乘务员在给女士找空座位但没找到,说明vacant意为“空的/空闲的”,与empty同义,均可修饰seat。故选B。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。第一段描述了女士面对残疾人的不舒服和不高兴,后来乘务员说要换到商务座,女士以为是给自己换,根据“The woman was very excited.”可知她很兴奋,最后原来是把残疾人调换到商务座,女士因此感到羞愧。故选B。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。本文讲述了一位蛮不讲理没有礼貌女士歧视残疾人,想换座位,结果暖心的乘务员把好的座位换给了残疾人,知道了残疾人的经历后,这位女士感到羞愧,这也证明了乘务员在这件事中做了一个正确的决定。故选C。

Many of us have learned that chatting with a friend, relative or classmate can improve our mood (情绪). And failing to communicate with others can also affect the health of our minds and bodies.
Now experts in the US have found that a good conversation just once a day could be enough to boost people’s happiness and lower their stress levels.
The researchers looked at five types of conversation that past research has found to make people feel closer. These included things like sharing jokes, listening to others’ opinions, discussing recent experiences, offering real praise and showing care for others. The researchers asked over 900 people at five US universities to have one of these five types of conversation each day. Then these people reported how their chats affected their stress, well-being and other feelings that day.
The researchers also looked at how the number of daily chats affected the people’s well-being. And they found that while one good chat was enough to improve someone’s mood, those who chose to have more of these conversations had better days. “This means the more you listened to your friends, the more you showed care, the more you took time to value others’ opinions, the better you felt at the end of the day,” one of the researchers said.
The researchers also said that meeting for a chat was better for people’s well-being than using a phone or social medias.
8. What does the underlined word “boost” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. Increase B. Discover C. Create D. Influence
9. How can we lower our stress according to Paragraph 3?
A. By surfing the Internet. B. By pointing out others’ mistakes.
C. By talking about our school trip yesterday. D. By offering advice to others.
10. What can we infer from the researcher’s words in Paragraph 4?
A. Exchanging ideas with others is useful.
B. Different conversations have different influences.
C. The number of daily chats can influence our mood.
D. Too much chats might be harmful.
11. What is the text mainly about?
A. Good chats improve our mood.
B. The change of mood is very important.
C. Five types of conversation affect our mood.
D. Using a phone is better than meeting for a chat.
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. C 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文主要谈论的是好的聊天会改善我们的心情。
【8题详解】
词句猜测题。根据“Now experts in the US have found that a good conversation just once a day could be enough to boost people’s happiness and lower their stress levels.”可知,现在,美国专家发现,每天一次愉快的交谈应是足以提高人们的幸福感,降低压力水平。因此,boost意为“提高”。故选A。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据“These included things like sharing jokes, listening to others’ opinions, discussing recent experiences, offering real praise and showing care for others.”可知,分享笑话、倾听别人的意见、讨论最近的经历、给予真正的赞美和关心别人可以降低压力。选项C“通过谈论我们昨天的学校旅行。”可以降低压力。故选C。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据“The researchers also looked at how the number of daily chats affected the people’s well-being. And they found that while one good chat was enough to improve someone’s mood, those who chose to have more of these conversations had better days.”可知,研究人员还研究了每天聊天的次数如何影响人们的幸福感。他们发现虽然一次愉快的聊天足以改善一个人的情绪,但那些选择进行更多此类交谈的人日子过得更好。选项C“每日聊天的数量可以影响我们的情绪。”可从第四段得出。故选C。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据全文和“Now experts in the US have found that a good conversation just once a day could be enough to boost people’s happiness and lower their stress levels.”可知,文章主要谈论的是好的聊天会改善我们的心情。故选A。

Imagine that you have woken up on the first day of your vacation. You enjoy a delicious breakfast, take a walk on the beach, and read the morning newspaper as you drink coffee. You are feeling happy and relaxed. But you may start to feel bored by the time the late afternoon comes around!
If you have ever felt like this, you’re not alone. It turns out that having unlimited (无限的) free time is not always as great as we expected. What is the best amount (数量) of free time for our happiness?
Researchers tried to answer this question by surveying tens of thousands of people, collecting data (数据) on how they spent their time and how happy they were. After looking at the data, the research team found that having less than two hours of free time a day was not enough to be happy. People with under two hours of free time a day usually had more stress. It means that they were simply too busy with work to get their happiness.
The fact that being too busy cuts happiness is true. It might lead to the answer that more free time is simply better. Surprisingly, having a lot of free time is not a panacea (灵丹妙药) for happiness. People surely get a certain sense of joy from finishing tasks. Having more than five hours of free time a day makes us lose the sense of joy. It is in fact cutting our happiness. But I think it is how we spend our free time that matters. When free time is used in more active ways, like playing a team sport, then five or more hours a day can keep or even produce happiness. However, spending five or more hours of free time alone can stop happiness.
12. What may make people feel bored during the vacation?
A. The morning newspaper. B. The delicious breakfast.
C. The unlimited free time. D. The walk on the beach.
13. What does the data of the survey show?
A. Working can make people happy.
B. Being too busy makes people stressed.
C. People without jobs are the happiest.
D. Two hours of free time brings people pleasure.
14. Which does the writer think is important for happiness?
A. A longest vacation. B. An unexpected surprise.
C. A certain sense of joy. D. Ways of enjoying free time.
15. What is the best title for the text?
A. What Should Our Vacation Be Like?
B. Why Do We Need More Free Time?
C. Where Can We Spend Our Daily Free Time?
D. How Much Free Time Do We Need to Be Happy?
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. D 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,作者通过介绍研究过程说明了更多的空闲时间不一定会让人快乐,重要的是如何度过空闲时间。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“But you may start to feel bored by the time the late afternoon comes around!”以及第二段“It turns out that having unlimited (无限的) free time is not always as great as we expected.”可知,无限的自由时间会让人在假期中感到无聊。故选C。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“After looking at the data, the research team found that having less than two hours of free time a day was not enough to be happy...too busy with work to get their happiness.”可知,在查看数据后,研究小组发现,每天少于两个小时的空闲时间,并不足以让人感到快乐。每天空闲时间少于两个小时的人通常压力更大。由此可知,忙于工作会让人感到压力。故选B。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“But I think it is how we spend our free time that matters.”可知,作者认为重要的是如何度过空闲时间。故选D。
【15题详解】
最佳标题题。通读全文可知,作者通过介绍研究过程说明了更多的空闲时间不一定会让人快乐,重要的是如何度过空闲时间。故选项D“我们需要多少空闲时间才能快乐”适合作为本文的标题,故选D。

A beautiful woman entered the plane and looked around in search of her seat. She found her seat next to a man who had no hands. She called an air hostess (女乘务员) and said unhappily, “I won’t be able to travel comfortably in this seat. I want to change my seat.”
The air hostess was shocked to hear this from a woman who appeared to be beautiful. She looked around for vacant seats but didn’t find any. She told the woman, “There’s no vacant seat in this economy class (经济舱), but it’s our responsibility (责任) to take care of our passengers. I’ll go to discuss this with our leader. Please wait for a while.”
After some time, the air hostess came back to the woman and said, “I’m very sorry for the trouble caused for you. On this plane, only one seat is vacant and it’s in the business class. I discussed it with the leader and we have made a great decision—a person from this economy class will be allowed to travel in the business class.”
The woman was very excited. But before she could say something, the air hostess moved towards the man and asked him, “Sir, will you please go to the business class? We don’t want you to feel uncomfortable traveling with an impolite passenger.” Hearing this, some passengers welcomed this decision by clapping (鼓掌).

Many of us have learned that chatting with a friend, relative or classmate can improve our mood (情绪). And failing to communicate with others can also affect the health of our minds and bodies.
Now experts in the US have found that a good conversation just once a day could be enough to boost people’s happiness and lower their stress levels.
The researchers looked at five types of conversation that past research has found to make people feel closer. These included things like sharing jokes, listening to others’ opinions, discussing recent experiences, offering real praise and showing care for others. The researchers asked over 900 people at five US universities to have one of these five types of conversation each day. Then these people reported how their chats affected their stress, well-being and other feelings that day.
The researchers also looked at how the number of daily chats affected the people’s well-being. And they found that while one good chat was enough to improve someone’s mood, those who chose to have more of these conversations had better days. “This means the more you listened to your friends, the more you showed care, the more you took time to value others’ opinions, the better you felt at the end of the day,” one of the researchers said.
The researchers also said that meeting for a chat was better for people’s well-being than using a phone or social medias.
8. What does the underlined word “boost” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. Increase B. Discover C. Create D. Influence
9. How can we lower our stress according to Paragraph 3?
A. By surfing the Internet. B. By pointing out others’ mistakes.
C. By talking about our school trip yesterday. D. By offering advice to others.
10. What can we infer from the researcher’s words in Paragraph 4?
A. Exchanging ideas with others is useful.
B. Different conversations have different influences.
C. The number of daily chats can influence our mood.
D Too much chats might be harmful.
11. What is the text mainly about?
A. Good chats improve our mood.
B. The change of mood is very important.
C. Five types of conversation affect our mood.
D. Using a phone is better than meeting for a chat.
D
Imagine that you have woken up on the first day of your vacation. You enjoy a delicious breakfast, take a walk on the beach, and read the morning newspaper as you drink coffee. You are feeling happy and relaxed. But you may start to feel bored by the time the late afternoon comes around!
If you have ever felt like this, you’re not alone. It turns out that having unlimited (无限的) free time is not always as great as we expected. What is the best amount (数量) of free time for our happiness?
Researchers tried to answer this question by surveying tens of thousands of people, collecting data (数据) on how they spent their time and how happy they were. After looking at the data, the research team found that having less than two hours of free time a day was not enough to be happy. People with under two hours of free time a day usually had more stress. It means that they were simply too busy with work to get their happiness.
The fact that being too busy cuts happiness is true. It might lead to the answer that more free time is simply better. Surprisingly, having a lot of free time is not a panacea (灵丹妙药) for happiness. People surely get a certain sense of joy from finishing tasks. Having more than five hours of free time a day makes us lose the sense of joy. It is in fact cutting our happiness. But I think it is how we spend our free time that matters. When free time is used in more active ways, like playing a team sport, then five or more hours a day can keep or even produce happiness. However, spending five or more hours of free time alone can stop happiness.
12. What may make people feel bored during the vacation?
A. The morning newspaper. B. The delicious breakfast.
C. The unlimited free time. D. The walk on the beach.
13. What does the data of the survey show?
A. Working can make people happy.
B. Being too busy makes people stressed.
C. People without jobs are the happiest.
D. Two hours of free time brings people pleasure.
14. Which does the writer think is important for happiness?
A. A longest vacation. B. An unexpected surprise.
C. A certain sense of joy. D. Ways of enjoying free time.
15. What is the best title for the text?
A. What Should Our Vacation Be Like?
B. Why Do We Need More Free Time?
C. Where Can We Spend Our Daily Free Time?
D. How Much Free Time Do We Need to Be Happy?
