    When we offer our best wishes to others, more often than not, we say: "May you be happy every
    day". But it's easier said than done to stay happy all the time. There are always things that stand in its
    way.
    The first, perhaps the biggest is genetics. Some scientists say that some people are naturally happier
    than others. Besides, major life events as well as social and economic factors can also stand in the way
    of happiness, such as losing your job or a family member. Then, there is health affecting your happiness
    . So, is it possible that people can find lasting happiness with so many factors preventing them?
    Positive psychologists(心理学家)believe it's possible for people to stay happy for long periods,
    although it cannot be lasting. Martin Seligman at University of Pennsylvania argues that daytoday
    happiness comes from two things: pleasures and satisfactions. Pleasures are rich experiences that simply
    make us feel good things like eating cake or drinking wine. While pleasures can be quite satisfying, the
    enjoyment we get from them is shortlived.
    Satisfactions are activities that we like to do and we give all we have to them. They are often
    challenging, and we have todraw_onpersonal skills and strengths to perform them. For some people,
    satisfactions come with work. Doctors, for example, often become so concentrated in an operation that
    hours pass without them noticing the time. For others, it may be hobbies like gardening, playing tennis or
    stamp collecting. These satisfactory activities affect the mood in a way that appears to be lasting.
    Too often, people choose pleasures over satisfactions because they are easier and the effects are
    more immediate. Though pleasures may work for a while, there are bad effects. Pleasurable activities
    become less enjoyable if overused. Always choosing pleasures over satisfactions can also prevent people
    from developing their personal strengths, which, if they're not put to work, will die.
    1.How many aspects are mentioned that affect one's staying happy?
    A.Two.
    B.Three.
    C.Four.
    D.Five.
    2.Compared with pleasures, satisfactions ________.
    A.have immediate effect and work quickly
    B.are more meaningful and last longer
    C.are more easily ignored by people
    D.depend mostly on one's genetics
    3.The underlined phrase "draw on" means ________.
    A.learn
    B.find
    C.improve
    D.use
    4.What is the best title for the passage?
    A.How to Be a Happier Person?
    B.It's Impossible to Stay Happy Long.
    C.Pleasures Are Different From Satisfactions.

等考点的理解。关于这些考点您可以点击下面的选项卡查看详细档案。
  • 日常生活类阅读

日常生活类阅读的概念:

日常生活这一话题主要涉及人们衣食住行等方面的活动。这一话题的选材主要针对人们日常的工作,生活以及学习情况。做这一类题时,最主要的是要把握好人物的活动内容,时间和地点。


日常生活类阅读题答题技巧:

【题型说明】
该类文章内容涉及到人们的言谈举止、生活习惯、饮食起居、服饰仪表、恋爱婚姻、消遣娱乐、节日起源、家庭生活等。文章篇幅短小,追根溯源,探索各项风俗的历史渊源,内容有趣。命题也以送分题为主,如事实细节题、语义转换题、词义猜测题和简单推理判断题等。虽然这类文章读起来感觉轻松,试题做起来比较顺手,但绝不能掉以轻心。因为稍不留神,就会丢分。   
【备考提醒】
为了保证较高准确率,建议同学们做好以下几点:   
1、保持正常的考试心态。笔者在教学中发现,越是容易的试题,同学们越是容易失分。为什么呢?因为在这种情况下,同学们极易产生麻痹思想,认为题目好做,就不引起高度重视,于是思维不发散、不周密。而命题人就是利用同学们的这一弱点,设计陷阱题。所以,无论试题难易与否,我们都要保持正常的考试心态。试题容易,不欣喜;试题难,不悲观。   
2、根据前面讲到的方法,认认真真、细细心心做好事实细节题。   
3、做好语义转换题。这类题是根据英语中一词多义和某些词语在文中能表达一定的修辞意义的原则而设计的。要求同学们解释某生词的含义,确定多义词或短语在文中的意思,确认文中的某个代词所指代的对象,或者对英语中特有的表达、格言、谚语进行解释。这种题要求同学们一定要根据上下文猜测词义或理解句子,切不可望文生义。   
4、做好简单推理判断题。简单推理判断题要以表面文字为前提,以具体事实为依据进行推理,做出判断。这种推理方式比较直接,只要弄清事实,即可结合常识推断出合理的结论。
