B Are people less happy or happier when they get older? If your answer is “happier”, then you are right. Study found that people generally become happier and experience less worry after age fifty. In fact, it found that by the age of eighty-five, people are happier with their life than they were at eighteen. The findings came from a Gallup Survey of more than three hundred and forty thousand adults in the United States in 2008. Arthur Stone in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Science at Stony Brook University in New York led the study. His team found that levels of stress were the highest among adults between the ages of twenty-two and twenty-five. Stress levels dropped greatly after people arrived at their fifties. Levels of happiness were the highest among the kids and those in their early seventies. The study also found that men and women have similar emotional patterns (情感模式) as they grow older. However, women at all ages were reported more sadness, stress and worry than men did. So why would happiness increase (增长) with age? One theory (推测) is that, as people get older, they become more thankful for what they have and have better control of their emotions. They also spend less time thinking about bad experiences. 30. What does the underlined word “stress” in Paragraph 2 mean in Chinese? A. 压力 B. 健康 C. 挑战 D. 成功 31. What can you learn from the findings of the study? A. People become happier and feel less worried before age 50. B. People are happier with their life at 13 than they are at 3. 5. C. Adults between the ages of 22 and 25 have the least stress. D. The kids and those in their early seventies feel the happiest. 32. Why does happiness increase with age? A. Because old people have no emotions. B. Because when people get older, they seldom have bad experiences. C. Because when people get older, they own more than before. D. Because old people are more thankful for what they have. 33. What would be the best title for the passage? A. Differences Between Men and Women B. Differences Between Young People and Older People C. Relationship Between Stress and Happiness D. Relationship Between Age and Happiness C Chinese spacemen are in outer space again! On June 17, 2021, the Shenzhou 12 manned spaceship was successfully launched(发射) from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center (酒泉卫星发射中心) in Gansu. The spaceship took three spacemen into space. It is the first manned task to take place as part of the building of China’s Tiangong space station. After entering orbit (轨道), the Shenzhou 12 completed a fast connection with the space station center module (舱) Tianhe, which is now traveling with the cargo (船或飞机装载的货物) ship Tianzhou 2 in low-Earth orbit hundreds of kilometers above the ground. It didn’t take long for the spacemen to reach the space station. “The trip used to take about two days, but this time, it took only 6.5 hours after leaving the earth.” said Gao Xu, deputy director designer of the Shenzhou 12. This is as long as a high-speed train trip from Beijing to Hunan. The Tianhe’s cabin will provide a comfortable environment for the spacemen’s long-term stay on the station. Their living space is about 110 cubic meters (立方米) in size. They can eat sleep, exercise, take showers and even contact their families through Wi-Fi in it. The spacemen are the first to enter the center module. They will work inside it for three months. During their stay, they will work on tasks to help build the space station. For example, they will test recycling and life support systems. Space walks have also been planned. 34. How many spacemen were taken into space by Shenzhou 12? A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five. 35. How long did it take the spacemen to reach the space station this time? A. 110 minutes. B. 12 hours. C. 6.5 hours. D. 2 days. 36. What does the underlined “it” in Paragraph 5 refer to? A. Tianhe’s cabin. B. The Shenzhou 12. C. The space. D. The cargo ship. 37. What will the spacemen do inside the center module? A. Widen their living space. B. Work on building the space station. C. Try to plant trees in the space. D. Travel with the cargo. D 阅读下面短文，并用英语回答问题(请注意每小题的词数要求)。 It was a Friday. I can still remember that day clearly. I got up early in the morning.

Keeping healthy is especially important because it helps us study better and face challenges bravely. Here are my suggestions. Firstly, eat a balanced diet with more vegetables and fruits. Avoid junk food like burgers and cola. Secondly, exercise for at least 30 minutes every day. You can run, play basketball or even dance. Thirdly, get 8 hours of sleep each night. Staying up late makes us tired. Finally, talk to friends or teachers when feeling stressed. Smiling can make your heart lighter. I hope all of us can follow these steps to stay healthy. Let’s enjoy our school life with strong bodies and happy minds! Thank you. 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
