【題目】I have even wondered if money buys happiness. It seems that money will allow me to buy the things1make me happy. But one day I sat down and made a list of the things I wanted2(do) in my life. I realized I’d never put much thought into it. I’d written down these things —like taking a photo on the mountain and staying at a hotel in Dubai, but I didn’t really plan to do it, 3 (simple) because I didn't have the time.

My life consisted 4 heading to the office, running on the road, working some more …It didn’t matter if my salary doubled; the life would stay 5same. Sure I’d probably drive a 6 (nice) car, move into a bigger place, and have a bigger TV than my friends, but that wasn't helping me realize any of my goals.. Six months after7 (create) that list, my belief has changed. I’d keep working on my list, for 8 (experience) were much more important than any of the material items. It’s not hard to create opportunity for 9 (you). All it 10 (take) is a little creative thinking.

【題目】I'm sure we've all done something a little dishonest in our lives—maybe copying someone's work, or being given too much change in a shop and keeping quiet about it. Or maybe I'm wrong—maybe you’re a good, upstanding citizen who believes that honesty is the best policy.

We may agree that admitting our mistakes and behaving in a genuine and decent way is the right way to lead our lives but is there something in our human nature that makes us unscrupulous? For example, in some shops and car parks you can find an honesty box—a box where you pay for something by putting money in it. But it does provide a temptation(誘惑) to get away with not paying the full amount.

Philip Graves, a psychologist, suggests that this temptation is part of our evolution. He says: we have evolved with the ability to be dishonest. It's part of our evolutionary psychological make up—because if we can gain an advantage over the people around us, we have a greater chance of surviving.

So why do we place such importance on being honest if we benefit from being dishonest? It's because it is selfish behavior. If everybody acted selfishly and dishonestly all the time, the world would be a very unpleasant place. So, for societies to work together we need to trust each other and therefore we need to be honest.

Being trustworthy with money is of course extremely important for an economy to survive and there are laws to protect us from dishonest practices. But being honest with words is another matter; saying what we think to someone can be embarrassing. Is honest always the best policy?

1Which of the underlined words is similar to "dishonest" in meaning?

A. upstanding

B. decent

C. unscrupulous

D. trustworthy

2If there is an honesty box in a shop, what should a customer do?

A. Take some money out if in need.

B. Donate some money to the charities.

C. Get away without paying the right amount.

D. Put in the amount of money one should pay for his buying.

3What can we learn according to Philip Graves?

A. Men are born to be dishonest.

B. One will be criticized if he is dishonest.

C. Dishonesty is of some benefit to survival.

D. Breaking the balance is kind of dishonesty.

4The author may NOT agree that ________.

A. honesty is based on working together

B. not all social members accept dishonesty

C. dishonest economic behaviors will be punished

D. being dishonest with words sometimes is acceptable

【題目】閱讀理解
A new study has discovered that meditation(冥想)and oxygen sport together reduce depression. The Rutgers University study found that this mind and body combination, done twice a week for only two months, reduced the symptoms for a group of students by 40 percent.
“We are excited by the findings because we saw such a meaningful improvement in both clinically depressed and non-depressed students,” said lead author Dr. Brandon Alderman. “It is the first time that both of these two behavioral ways have been looked at together for dealing with depression.”
Researchers believe the two activities have an interactive effect in combating depression. Alderman and Dr. Tracey Shors discovered that a combination of mental and physical training (MAP) enabled students with major depressive disorder not to let problems or negative thoughts defeat them.
Rutgers researchers say those who participated in the study began with 30 minutes of focused attention meditation followed by 30 minutes of oxygen sport. They were told that if their thoughts drifted to the past or the future they should refocus on their breathing, enabling those with depression to accept moment-to-moment changes in attention.
Shors, who studies the production of new brain cells in the hippocampus—part of the brain involved in memory and learning—says scientists have shown in animal models that oxygen sport exercise keeps a large number of certain cells alive.
The idea for the human intervention(干預(yù))came from her laboratory studies, she says, with the main goal of helping individuals acquire new skills so that they can learn to recover from stressful life events.
By learning to focus their attention and exercise, people who are fighting depression can acquire new learning skills that can help them process information and reduce the overwhelming recollection of memories from the past, Shors says.
“We know these treatments can be practiced over a lifetime and that they will be effective in improving mental health.” said Alderman. “The good news is that this intervention can be practiced by anyone at any time and at no cost.”
(1)What made the research so different?
A.Adopting a way of meaningful talk.
B.Combining the two behavioral ways to treat depression.
C.Treating depression with special medicine.
D.Comparing the depressed with the non-depressed.
(2)The underlined word “combating” in Paragraph 3 can be replaced by ______.
A.fighting
B.identifying
C.distinguishing
D.examining
(3)What did the participants do in the research?
A.They did oxygen sport half an hour before thinking.
B.They thought quietly and then took exercise.
C.They took exercise longer than they thought.
D.They took exercise while thinking quietly.
(4)What is Shors' main purpose of her studies?
A.To find out certain brain cells of humans.
B.To study the production of new brain cells.
C.To offer people a new method to treat stress.
D.To decide the links between stress and exercise.
