25、 At 16, I felt unloved, shy and lonely, the kind of girl nicknamed the Brain, more interested in reading books than joking with other classmates. The few young single teachers were leaving to serve in World War . My physics teacher, Mr Bossing, a middle-aged, married World War I veteran（ 老兵 ） of my

26、fathers age, took on increasing responsibilities. Monitoring the lunch line, he nodded pleasingly when he saw carrots on my tray, telling me that they would make my eyes bright. When he observed me holding my pen at an awkward angle as I wrote my homework, he warned me that if I continued to hold my

27、 pen in that way, no man would want to marry me. Overnight, I corrected a habit I held since learning to write. Though without a special ability of physics, I was one of Mr Bossings better students. When my lab partner, who had copied my third-quarter exam, complained that my grade was higher than h

28、ers, I brought both papers up to Mr Bossing for redress. With silent anger, he lowered my grade rather than raising hers. That hurt me. Still, we remained friends. On one occasion, he gave me a small, indestructible（ 难以破坏的 ） horseshoe magnet, which I still treasure. Was he the father of daughters? I

29、 dont know, but he really knew how to make a young girl feel good about herself. Only now, much later, do I realize what this teacher did for me. 51 The writer was nicknamed the Brain because .

33、her. D A father figure. B It feels good to be happy. Laughing is fun. And most people like to have a good time. If you ask people what they want for their children, most say, I want them to be happy, says happiness researcher Sonja Lyubomirsky. Not that long ago, however, joy wasnt considered seriou

34、s enough for psycho1ogists to study. These scientists traditionally helped people with depression or other menta1 illnesses. When I started doing research on this 18 years ago, Lyubomirsky says, happiness was not considered a scientific topic. But today, happiness is a hot subject of research. As pa

35、rt of a growing field called positive psychology, more and more researchers are looking for ways to help people become happier, even if they dont feel depressed to begin with. There are plenty of reasons why happiness is a worthy goal. Recent studies suggest that, among other benefits, happy people

36、are healthier, have more friends, and make more money than their sadder peers. Research also suggests that there are easy things people can do to make themselves happier. The field of positive psychology has had to overcome significant obstacles（ 障碍 ） . For one thing, its difficult to scientifically

37、 measure happiness. Its also hard to compare one persons sense of well-being with anothers No one can tell you how happy you are, Lyubomirsky says. Whos to say whos right? In recent years, however, researchers have developed what they consider to be one possible measurement of happiness. One techniq

38、ue involves looking at how often people genuinely smile in their daily lives. Its easy to tell real smiles from the fake smiles. Genuine smiles engage the corners of the eyes and involve muscles around the mouth that fake smi1ers cant control. Scientists also sometimes look at images of the brain fo

39、r clues: an area of ones brain tends to work harder in the people who are happier. 56 The underlined word this in Paragraph 2 refers to .

41、B By looking into the corners of the eyes. C By noticing whether muscles around the mouth move. D By taking a picture of a persons head. C A clean air supply is essential to our own health and the environment. But since the industria1 revolution, the quality of the air we breathe has deteriorated co

42、nsiderably mainly as a result of human activities. Rising industrial and energy production, the burning of fossil fuels and the dramatic rise in traffic on our roads all contribute to air pollution in our towns and cities which, in turn, can lead to serious health problems. For example, air pollutio

43、n is increasingly being cited as the main cause of lung conditions such as asthma（ 哮喘 ） . Air quality is now a major concern for many European citizens. It is also one of the areas in which the European Union has been most active. Since the early 1970s, the EU has been working to improve air quality

44、 by controlling emissions of harmful substances into the atmosphere, improving fuel quality, and by integrating environmental protection requirements into the transport and energy sectors. As the result of EU legislation（ 立法 ） , much progress has been made in tackling air pollutants such as sulfur d

45、ioxide, nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide and benzene. However, despite a reduction in some harmfu1 emissions, air pollution continues to cause problems. Summer smogoriginating in potentially harmful ground-level ozone（ 臭氧 ） regularly goes beyond safe limits. Fine particulates （ 微粒 ） also present a h

46、ealth risk which is of increasing concern. Clearly, more needs to be done at local, national, European and international level. The EUs Sixth Environment Action Programme （ EAP） , Environment 2010: Our future, Our choice, includes Environment and Health as one of the four main target areas requiring

47、 greater effort and air pollution is one of the issues highlighted in this area. The Sixth EAP aims to achieve the level of air quality that does not result in unacceptable impacts on, and risks to, human health and the environment. The EU is acting at many levels to reduce exposure to air pollution

48、: through EU legislation, through work at international level to reduce cross-border pollution, through co-operation with sectors responsible for air pollution, through national, regional authorities, and through research. The Clean Air For Europe（ CAFE） initiative has led to a thematic strategy setting out the objectives and measures for the next phase of European air quality policy. 59 Which of the following human activities is attributed to lung disease?
