For example, people might look at what others have, like expensive clothes or nice cars, and wish they could have the same. But the things that money can buy can not bring happiness to a person for long. But is that really true? Studies have found that money can, in fact, make people happier. Instead, its giving money to others that makes people happy. It could be buying a present for a friend or a family member. It could be buying a homeless person food to eat. It could be giving money to a person in need. Just think about the last time you used your own money to do something for someone else. How did you feel? Whether it is a small or large amount of money, people feel happier when they give. This is because making someone else happy makes the giver happy, too.This idea of connecting your happiness to the happiness of others is described as ubuntu in an African language. There is even a story about a man visiting Africa who asked some kids to race to a nearby tree. The first child to touch the tree would get a sweet treat. Surprisingly, all the children held hands and ran together. They all touched the tree at the same time. The man asked why they had done this. The children simply said they could only enjoy eating the treat if everyone had one.（1）The writer says that buying things _. A . can make people worriedB . can make people nervousC . may lead to sadness for longD . may lead to happiness for a short time（2）Where can we best put But its not having money that brings happiness. in Paragraph 2?

To express happiness is from children.（4）What does the writer try to tell us? A . Buying new things can make people happy.B . The key to happiness is making others happy.C . If you want to be happy, you can visit Africa.D . People who have a lot of money might not be happy.4. （10分）阅读下面三篇短文，根据短文内容，从所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。BThere is a famous English saying “You are what you eat”, and it means what you put in your mouth will become part of you. Many experts use it to tell people its important to have a good eating habit. For example, too much sweet food makes a person overweight. To avoid being fat, kids are told to keep off sweet food. However, a team of American scientists have discovered something new about eating sweet food.“When we say some people sweet, we mean they are kind and friendly to us. Perhaps his word can help us learn more about peoples feelings and acts.” said Brain Meier, a scientist from the study team. “Taste is something we experience every day. What we have done is to find whether we can know someones character and behavior depending on their taste.”In one of their experiments, college students were asked questions about their character-whether, for example, they were soft-hearted or not. Then they were asked to make a list of their favorite food. According to their answers, the scientists found that the students who liked sweet food were nicer.In their another experiment, the scientists found that people who preferred sweet food such as cookies and chocolate were more willing to help other people in need, and those who ate nonsweet food such as chips werent. For example, people with a sweet tooth were more likely to volunteer to clean up their city, visit sick children in the hospital and so on.The result of experiments is that peoples helpfulness or being nice has something to do with their taste for sweet food. So eating sweet food is a useful way to make people nice and helpful. Next time, try some ice-cream.（1）The underlined word “it” refers to(指代) _.A . the sweet foodB . the eating habitC . the American teamD . the English saying（2）According to the result of the experiments, sweet food makes people _.A . overweightB . excitedC . relaxedD . friendly（3）The scientists found that the people who preferred _ were less helpful.A . ice-creamB . chocolateC . chipsD . cookies（4）It can be learnt from the passage that _.A . scientists asked college students questions about their futureB . scientists told college students not to eat sweet foodC . people with a sweet tooth are more willing to help othersD . peoples character has nothing to do with their taste.5. （10分）根据短文内容，选择正确答案。(A)Day and night across China, groups of middle-aged retirees, mostly women, gather together to dance in open space, like squares and parks. They are known as guang chang wu da ma. Their love for square dancing has made them a national phenomenon (现象).However, some people dont think highly of it. Their music is too loud, and they take up too much public space.

Li Dong, 46, is a pioneer in this field.In addition to keeling fit, square dancing has become so popular because older people who are free from work and from raising children want to be connected with one another. But I think that square dancing has a deeper meaning.By teaching herself different dances, such as Latin, Tango and Cha-cha, Li adds variety (花样) to square dancing. Although we are old, we are curious (好奇的) and want to try different dance style, she adds, because square dancing has attracted so much attention, I want to take it seriously. As for peoples objection (反对), Li says her team has taken the suggestion of turning down the volume (音量) and dancing at proper sites.
