If you answer is happier, then you are right, based on a study published five years ago. It found that people generally become happier and experience less worry after age fifty. In fact, it found that by the age of eighty-five, people are happier with their life than they were at eighteen.The findings came from a Gallup survey of more than three hundred and forty thousand adults in the United States in 2008. At that time, the people were between the ages of eighteen and eighty-five.Arthur stone in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Science at Stony Brook University in New York led the study. His team found that levels of stress were the highest among adults between the ages of twenty-two and twenty-five. Stress levels dropped sharply after people reached their fifties.Levels of happiness were the highest among the kids and those in their early seventies.The survey also found that men and women have similar emotional patterns as they grow older. However, women at all ages reported more sadness, stress and worry than men did.So why would happiness increase with age? One theory is that, as people get older, they become more thankful for what they have and have better control of their emotions. They also spend less time thinking about bad experiences.（1）Which would be the best title for the passage? A . Relationship between man and woman.B . Happiness increase with age.C . Relationship between age and happiness.D . People become more thankful when they are older（2）When and where did the survey come from? A . In New York in 2008.B . In the UK in 2008.C .

People are happier with their life than they were at eightyfive.C . Street levels dropped sharply after people reached their fifties.D . Women at all ages reported more sadness, stress and worry than men did.（4）Why would happiness increase with age? A . Because old people have no emotion.B . Because when people get older, they become more beautiful.C . Because when people get older, they become more thankful and have better control of their emotions. They also spend less time thinking about bad experiences.D . Because when people get older, they have no time to think about bad experiences.（5）In which part of a newspaper would you most probably read the passage? A . Shopping.B . Teaching.C . Family.D .

Emma had added a path and some flowers. Emma had drawn a beautiful tree, and I had added a girl reading under the tree.This was a fun idea, I said.

This is an old English saying. It means that we should go to bed early at night and get up early in the morning. If we do, we shall be healthy. We shall also be rich and clever. Is this true? Perhaps it is. The body must have enough sleep. Children of your age need ten hours sleep every night. If you do not go to bed early, you can not have enough sleep. Then you can not think properly and you can not do your work properly. You will not be wise and you may not become wealthy！Some people go to bed late at night and get up late in the morning. This is not good for them. We should sleep at night when it is dark. The dark helps us to sleep well. When the daylight comes, we should get up. This is the time for exercise. If the body is not used, it will become weak. Exercise keeps it strong. Exercise helps the blood to move around inside the body. This is very important. Blood takes nutrition（营养）to all parts of our bodies. The brains in our heads also need blood. We think with our brains. If we keep our bodies healthy，and take exercise, we can think better！Our bodies also need air to breathe. Without air we will die. Get up early in the morning and we can have plenty of clean，fresh air. That will keep us healthy and happy. （1）The old English saying Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise. mainly shows.
