The secret to happiness is keeping busy, research has found.
Keeping the mind occupied with tasks—no matter how meaningless—keeps off negative emotions, the study found.
However, the bad news is that humans are seemingly born to be lazy in order to save energy, according to Professor Christoper Hsee, a behavioral scientist at Chicago University.
In a study, 98 students were asked to complete two surveys. After they had completed the first, they were made to wait 15 minutes to receive the next one. They were given a choice of either banding in the first survey nearby or at a more distant location they had to walk to. No matter which choice they made, they received a chocolate bar. It turned out that about two-thirds (68 students) chose the lazy option. Those who had taken the walk reported feeling happier than those who had stayed put (呆在原处).
Prof. Hsee concluded that keeping busy helped keep people happy. He said the findings, reported in the journal Psychological Science, might have an effect on policies.
"Governments may increase the happiness of idle citizens by having them build bridges that are actually useless," he suggested.
As for ordinary people, he advised, "Get up and do something. Anything. Even if there really is no point to what you are doing, you will feel better for it." He added, "Thinking deeply or engaging in self-reflection can be regarded as keeping busy, too."
"You do not need to be running around, You just need to be engaged, either physically or mentally."
(1)、Keeping busy can make people happy because ________.A、it can help people get rid of laziness B、it can make people sleep better C、it can help get rid of negative emotions D、it can give people a sense of achievement(2)、Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A、Policies may be influenced by the findings. B、The officials have taken Prof. Hsee's advice. C、In the study half students handed in the first survey nearby. D、Governments can increase citizens' happiness by building bridges.(3)、What can we infer from the passage?A、Everybody is born to be happy. B、Only by keeping working all the time can you gaid happiness. C、Prof. Hsee's finding was published in Psychological Science. D、Keeping busy goes against human nature.(4)、What is the best title for the passage?A、What is Happiness B、The Secret of Happiness: Keeping Busy C、The Finding of Research: Do What You Like D、Take Life correctly28. 阅读理解①NO BOATING IN ANY PART OF THE LAKE

It is happening all around us, and you can use daily things to arouse (激发) your children's interest. Most parents believe it is difficult to help their children with science. But you don't need a high scientific degree to teach your children science. All you need is that you're willing to try, to see the world, and to take the time to encourage their natural curiosity. When they strongly want to know about something, they get the ticket to the unknown world.
You can help by having an active attitude (态度) towards science yourself. Then start simply by asking your children questions about the things you see every day. Next listen to their answers without judging (评判) them, which will improve their confidence (自信), and help you decide just what your children know or do not know.
Different kids have different interest, so they need different kinds of science projects. Collecting rocks may interest your young daughter, but your older son may need something more to deal with it. Knowing your children is the best way to find enjoyable learning activities. Here are some more pieces of advice: Choose activities that are the right level of difficulty. If you are not sure, pick something easier. Read the suggested ages on any projects, books, and then make sure that the activity is proper for your children. Let your children choose the project or activity themselves. It's easy enough to ask rather than force them. Suggest choosing 2 or 3 things your children can do. When a child picks something he or she is interested in, he or she will enjoy it and learn more from it.
(1)、What do most parents believe?A、Science should be learnt early. B、Science teaching needs time. C、Helping children with science is hard. D、Many children have no interest in science.(2)、What does the underlined word "curiosity" mean in English?A、The spirit of changing. B、The ability of understanding. C、The method of thinking. D、The feeling of wondering.(3)、How can we start to help children?A、By judging them. B、By asking them questions. C、By collecting their answers. D、By deciding what interests them.(4)、Which is the best way to find enjoyable learning activities for children?A、To know the children. B、To improve their confidence. C、To have an active attitude. D、To offer different kinds of projects.(5)、What can we mainly learn from the passage?A、How to choose activities for children. B、Why to let children learn science earlier. C、Why not force children to learn science. D、How to arouse children's interest in science.30. 阅读理解Bara Finch began to write to Elizabeth Martin 70 years ago. And they have been pen friends ever since then.
"70 years is a long time and such a lot has happened," says Barbara. "I have lost my husband and my son, and she has lost her husband and her daughter. With things like that, her friendship means a lot to me."
The two started writing letters to each other in November 70 years ago. At that time, Barbara was a 14-year-old pupil. In her school, there were some students from New Zealand. Among many pen friends, Barbara and Elizabeth were the only pair to form a long friendship.
Technology has made a big difference to how the pair communicates now. Instead of writing, they continue to send e-mails to tell each other about their daily lives every week. "We e-mail to each other instead if writing letters now mainly because it's quicker and there is no cost," says Barbara.
Barbara and Elizabeth not only write to each other, but they also meet face to face. Barbara goes from England to visit Elizabeth when she has time. They have visited each other 15 times. "Her family has become a second family to me. She says I'm the sister she never bad," Barbara says.

B、Because their friendship breaks. C、Because they often meet face to face. D、Because they are too old to write letters.31. 阅读理解You might have seen the news about the first robot ever to get a citizenship of a country. Her name is Sophia. She has become a citizen of Saudi Arabia.

The creator and founder of Hanson Robotics, Dr David Hanson, wanted to incorporate three human features to his robots, with the three, being creativity, empathy (同理心) and compassion.
