【解析】

試題分析:這是一篇對人們的幸福感的調(diào)查結(jié)果分析的文章,調(diào)查結(jié)果顯示人在少年時(shí)期或十八歲初最為開心,五十歲以后壓力最;在22至25歲壓力最大;同時(shí)表明女人比男人更易多愁。

【1】exciting。動(dòng)詞sound為感官動(dòng)詞,系動(dòng)詞的一種,譯為聽起來;后加形容詞構(gòu)成系表結(jié)構(gòu);由于事物做主語故用-ing形式。故填exciting

【2】worried。Worry修飾人們,做人們的后置定語,譯為擔(dān)心自己正在變老的人們,由詞組 be worried about 的固定搭配可知,用它的-ed形式。故填worried

【3】a。a survy of ,關(guān)于某某的調(diào)查。故填a

【4】them。Question此處用作動(dòng)詞,question sb質(zhì)問某人;詢問某人,由上文可知,調(diào)查了340,000多人,故用復(fù)數(shù)的賓格代詞。故填them

【5】sadness。由此句可知,他們詢問關(guān)于情感例如,幸福happiness,的問題,故相應(yīng)的該用sad的名詞形式,。故填sadness

【6】highest。由句子翻譯可知,調(diào)查發(fā)現(xiàn)在22至25歲間的年輕人壓力大,看到后面的among知道是壓力最大,該用最高級(jí)。故填highest

【7】sharply。Drop為實(shí)意動(dòng)詞,動(dòng)詞后面該接副詞進(jìn)行修飾,故該用sharp的副詞形式,譯為壓力水平在人們到達(dá)五十歲后驟降。故填sharply

【8】was。由句意可知,在少年時(shí)期幸福感是最強(qiáng)烈的,缺少實(shí)意動(dòng)詞是,故選擇be動(dòng)詞,由于happiness是不可數(shù)名詞,且整篇為過去時(shí)態(tài)。故填was

【9】in。本空考察短語搭配,in sb’s +基數(shù)詞復(fù)數(shù),表示在某人多少歲時(shí)。故填介詞in

【10】How。由句意可知,研究表明女人跟男人長大后有一樣的情感模式,但是,女人在任何時(shí)期都比男人更加容易憂愁,應(yīng)為轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系。故填How

Gurdjieff used to say,“【1】 you are in good communion with your parents, you have missed your life." If some anger persists between you and your parents, you will never feel 2 ease. Wherever you are, you will feel a little guilty. You will never be able to forgive 3 forget…Parents are not just a social relationship. It is out of them 4 you have come. You are part of them, _ 5 branch of their tree. You are still rooted in them. When parents die, something very deep-rooted dies within you. When parents die, for the first time you feel alone, uprooted. 6 while they are alive, do everything that you can so that an understanding can arise and you can communicate with them and they can communicate with you. Then, 7 they leave the world-and they will leave someday,you will not feel guilty; you will not repent; you will know that things have settled. 8 have been happy with you and you have been happy with them.

【題目】Like most people, I was brought up to look upon life as a process of getting. It was not until in my late thirties that I made this important discovery: giving-away makes life so much more exciting. You need not worry if you lack money.

This is how I experimented with giving-away. If an idea for improving the window display of a neighborhood store flashes to me, I step in and make the suggestion to the storekeeper. One discovery I made about giving-away is that it is almost impossible to give away anything in this world without getting something back, though the return often comes in all unexpected form.

One Sunday morning, the local post office delivered an important special delivery letter to my home, though it was addressed to me at my office. I wrote the postmaster a note of appreciation. More than a year later I needed a post-office box for a new business I was starting. I was told at the window that there were no boxes left, and that my name would have to go on a long waiting list. As I was about to leave, the postmaster appeared in the doorway. He had overheard(無意中聽到)our conversation. "Wasn’t it you that wrote us that letter a year ago about delivering a special delivery to your home?" I said yes. "Well, you certainly are going to have a box in this post office if we have to make one for you. You don’t know what a letter like that means to us. We usually get nothing but complaints."
