Now even the insides of taxis are noisy. When you get into a taxi, you hear the voice of a well-known opera singer, sports announcer or Broadway actress giving instructions. The voice of a famous person tells you what to do. One popular singer gives this message: “Cats have nine lives, but you have only one, so fasten your seat belt.” Other voices say things such as “Don’t forget to collect all your belongings.” People often leave handbags, umbrellas in taxis. There is a good reason for the messages. There are more than 12,000 taxis in New York, and every year taxis get into more than 15,000 accidents. In an accident, people who don’t wear seat belts may easily get hurt. Every year about 11,000 people are injured in this way. Many people are annoyed by the voices. Taxi drivers in particular dislike the message. “I play the messages 12 hours a day. I hear the same voices 60 times a day. It makes me crazy,” says Tom, “I am a 45-year-old taxi driver. But if I don’t play the messages, I get fined $100.” A lot of passengers complain too. They think it is too noisy. Questions: 11. Why are the insides of New York’s taxis noisy? 12.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. （A） People say money doesn’t buy happiness, but how much money you make can affect the way you experience it? While it’s true that money can’t buy happiness, having money has certain benefits. For example, money can buy you time to do things that make you happier, and giving away some of your money can make you happier as well. Now scientists from the University of California at Irvine have found that how much money you make may affect how you experience happiness; higher earners are more likely to experience positive emotions focused on themselves, while lower earners are more likely to experience positive emotions focused on connecting with other people. Scientists used data from an existing survey of 1,519 U.S. adults between the ages of 24 to 93, to be representative of the entire U.S. population. From the survey, scientists collected the household income of each person and analyzed how each person experienced the seven emotions that are believed to cause happiness: amusement, admiration, compassion, satisfaction, enthusiasm, love, and pride. What they found was that higher earners were associated with the happiness-related emotions of satisfaction, pride, and amusement, all of which are self-focused in nature. Lower earners were associated with more other-oriented (他人指向) happiness-related emotions: compassion, love, and admiration. There were no differences observed with enthusiasm. As to reasons for the difference, the researchers suppose that while pride and satisfaction may reflect upper class individuals’ desire for independence, increased love and compassion may help lower class individuals form more harmonious, interdependent relationships to help deal with their more threatening environments. In other words, the researchers are not saying that one way of getting happiness is better than another, but rather that the way one obtains happiness may be a product of existing and coping within one’s particular circumstances. 47. What do higher earners prefer to do? A. Long to connect with others. B. Spend more money on the poor. C. Buy things to make them happier. D. Pay more attention to themselves. 48. Why did the scientists study the seven emotions? A. They can make people happy. B. They can be bought with money. C. They are the most common feelings. D.

Summary Writing （8分） 57. Directions:  Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.  The power of journalling For many of us, a work diary is a practical thing. We use them for work to make a note of appointments or meetings. But journalling is more about feelings. A personal journal is private, often detailing secrets and desires. What are the benefits to writing things down? Sometimes it can be difficult to say exactly what we’re feeling because of anxiety or frustration. For some of us, putting pen to paper and jotting down our thoughts is a much easier process than saying them. What’s more, writing things down can actually help us to formulate ideas and make sense of something that is stressing us, annoying us, or getting us down. Writing a narrative of events or a series of words about what is on your mind can help you to focus and feel just as good as meditation. That is also good for your mental health. Another thing to consider is that our memories fade over time. What is clear in our minds today may just be forgotten a few years down the line. Logging what’s happening in our lives could bring forgotten moments back to life and also shows us how we have developed. The person who was annoying us years ago may now be a close friend, or something that you were once scared of may now seem funny. So, if you have something on your mind, it might be good to get things written down. And if something exciting happens, writing about it may help you to remember that wonderful time! _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Journalling keeping a record of private life, benefits us in many ways. First it provides an easier way to express difficult feelings and helps process stress by focusing on the mind like meditation. Moreover, it preserves fading memories, allowing us to see our personal growth and relive positive experiences. So write down what’s on your mind. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了写日记的好处，包括更容易表达情感、帮助处理压力、保存记忆、见证个人成长以及重温积极经历等。 【详解】1. 要点摘录 ①But journalling is more about feelings.

While it’s true that money can’t buy happiness, having money has certain benefits. For example, money can buy you time to do things that make you happier, and giving away some of your money can make you happier as well. Now scientists from the University of California at Irvine have found that how much money you make may affect how you experience happiness; higher earners are more likely to experience positive emotions focused on themselves, while lower earners are more likely to experience positive emotions focused on connecting with other people. Scientists used data from an existing survey of 1,519 U.S. adults between the ages of 24 to 93, to be representative of the entire U.S. population. From the survey, scientists collected the household income of each person and analyzed how each person experienced the seven emotions that are believed to cause happiness: amusement, admiration, compassion, satisfaction, enthusiasm, love, and pride. What they found was that higher earners were associated with the happiness-related emotions of satisfaction, pride, and amusement, all of which are self-focused in nature. Lower earners were associated with more other-oriented (他人指向) happiness-related emotions: compassion, love, and admiration. There were no differences observed with enthusiasm. As to reasons for the difference, the researchers suppose that while pride and satisfaction may reflect upper class individuals’ desire for independence, increased love and compassion may help lower class individuals form more harmonious, interdependent relationships to help deal with their more threatening environments. In other words, the researchers are not saying that one way of getting happiness is better than another, but rather that the way one obtains happiness may be a product of existing and coping within one’s particular circumstances. 47. What do higher earners prefer to do? A. Long to connect with others. B. Spend more money on the poor. C. Buy things to make them happier. D. Pay more attention to themselves. 48. Why did the scientists study the seven emotions? A. They can make people happy. B. They can be bought with money. C. They are the most common feelings. D. They are the results of an existing survey. 49. What can be inferred from people with different incomes according to this passage? A. They all live a hard life. B. They have different ways to get happiness. C. They are all satisfied with their lives. D. Their happiness has nothing to do with money.

But journalling is more about feelings. A personal journal is private, often detailing secrets and desires. What are the benefits to writing things down? Sometimes it can be difficult to say exactly what we’re feeling because of anxiety or frustration. For some of us, putting pen to paper and jotting down our thoughts is a much easier process than saying them. What’s more, writing things down can actually help us to formulate ideas and make sense of something that is stressing us, annoying us, or getting us down. Writing a narrative of events or a series of words about what is on your mind can help you to focus and feel just as good as meditation. That is also good for your mental health. Another thing to consider is that our memories fade over time. What is clear in our minds today may just be forgotten a few years down the line. Logging what’s happening in our lives could bring forgotten moments back to life and also shows us how we have developed. The person who was annoying us years ago may now be a close friend, or something that you were once scared of may now seem funny. So, if you have something on your mind, it might be good to get things written down. And if something exciting happens, writing about it may help you to remember that wonderful time! _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ V.
