根据以下材料，回答题

Middle Age: A Low Point for Most

People around the globe hit the height of their misery and depression in middle 51_________ .， a new international study suggests. The finding by British and American researchers was based on an analysis of well-being among approximately 52_________ million people in 80 nations. With few exceptions，the observation appears to apply across the board， regardless 2 gender （性别）， culture，geography， wealth， job history， education， and marriage or parental status.

"The scientific fact seems to be that happiness and positive mental health follow a giant "U" 53_________ through life，" said study author Andrew J. Oswald， a professor of economics at Warwick University in Warwickshire， England. "For the average person， it"s high when you"re 20， and then it slowly 54_________ and bottoms out in your 40s. But the good news is that your 55_________ health picks up again， and eventually gets back to the high levels of your youth."

The finding was 56_________ on the pooling of several different sources of happiness data，including: two multi-decade happiness/satisfaction surveys （first launched in the 1970s）， involving about 500，000 American and Western European men and women; four rounds of the 80-nation "World Values Survey" 57_________ between 1981 and 2004 in North America， Eastern and WesternEurope， Asia， Africa， Australia， and Central and South America; and a 2004-2007 survey 58_________ nearly 1 million Britons.

The bottom-line: For most people throughout the world， the highest probability for 59_________ striking is around 44 years of age.

In the United States， however， some as-yet unexplained 60_________ differences were observed， with happiness among men dipping the most in their early 50s， whereas women hit their nadir （最低点） around the age of 40.

The researchers cautioned that cheerful people tend to live longer than unhappy. 61_________ – a fact that might have skewed （使偏斜） the overall finding. But they also suggested that evidence of a happiness 62_________ might simply reflect a midlife choice to give up long-held but no longer tenable （守得住的） aspiration （志向）， followed by a senior"s sense of gratitude for having successfully endured 63_________ others did not.

"That said， some might find it helpful simply to understand the general 64_________ of mental health as they go through their own life，" said Oswald. "It might be useful for people to realize that if they are 65_________ in their 40s this is normal. It is not exceptional. And just knowing this might help".

听力原文：The second Monday of January is Coming-of-Age Day, a national holiday to encourag

听力原文： The second Monday of January is Coming-of-Age Day, a national holiday to encourage those who have newly entered adulthood to become self-reliant members of society. The holiday used to be on January 15, but in 2000 it was moved to the second Monday of the month.

The local governments host special coming-of-age ceremonies for 20-year-olds, since an "adult" in Japan is legally defined as one who is 20 or over. They gain the right to vote on their twentieth birthday, and they're also allowed to smoke and drink. But along with these rights come new responsibilities as well, and so age 20 is a big turning point for the Japanese.

In the past boys marked their transition to adulthood when they were around 15, and girls celebrated their coming of age when they turned 13 or so. It wasn't until 1876 that 20 became the legal age of adulthood.

These days, males generally wear suits to their coming-of-age ceremony, but a lot of females choose to wear traditional furisode (振袖，状似和服的长袖)—a special type of clothes for unmarried women with extra-long sleeves and elaborate designs. For unmarried women, furisode is about the most formal thing they can wear, and so many of them wear it to the event marking the start of their adult life.

(33)

A．On January 15.

B．The second Monday of January.

C．The second Sunday of January.

D．On January 5.

听力原文：Most people think that the older you get, the harder it is to learn, a new langua

听力原文： Most people think that the older you get, the harder it is to learn, a new language. That is, they believe that children can learn more easily and efficiently than adults. Thus, at some point in our lives, maybe around age 12 or 13, we lose the ability to learn languages well. Is this idea a fact or myth？

Is it true that children can learn a foreign language more efficiently than adults？ On the contrary, research studies suggest that the opposite may be true. One report, on 2,000 Danish children studying Swedish, concluded that the teenagers learned more in less time than the younger children. Another report on Americans learning Russian showed a direct improvement of ability over the age range tested; that is, the ability to learn increased as the age increased, from childhood to adulthood.

There are several possible explanations for these findings. First, adults know more about the world and therefore are able to understand meanings more easily than children. Moreover, adults can use logical thinking to help themselves see patterns in the language. Finally, adults have more self-control than children.

(30)

A．Teenagers are more efficient in learning.

B．Children learn languages more easily than adults.

C．Adults are more logical than children.

D．The ability to learn languages increases with age.

听力原文： One of the most famous travelers in all of history was Marco Polo. At the age of 17, he left Italy with his father and uncle. It took them more than 3 years to cross the mountains and deserts of Asia. In the year 1275, they reached China. They stayed in China for almost 20 years, as guests of the emperor. He sent them on many trips around his empire. They found China far more advanced than Italy or any other countries in Europe.

After he returned to Italy, Marco Polo dictated many of his stories to a friend. His book, Description of the World, became the most popular book in Europe. People found it difficult to believe his stories of people, animals, places, and things. These are a few of his descriptions:

In one area of China, there were black stones. People dug them out of the mountains. They lit the black stones and they burned very slowly, giving off heat. The people used these stones to cook and to heat their homes.

In China there was a great system of highways. These highways had two lanes paved with stones or bricks. Men planted trees every ten feet to keep the sun off travelers' heads.

Most people believed Marco Polo' s stories. But others told him that they did not believe his descriptions. He answered that he did not tell half of what he saw.

Marco Polo came to China

A．alone.

B．with two friends.

听力原文： There are wonderful sights to view all around Tower Bridge, too. It is one of the most interesting parts of London. On its south side are many tall and old buildings. They are warehouses which hold goods that is shipped to London and waiting to be sold. On its north side stands the Tower of London itself.

Although they look like the same age, the Tower is more than a thousand years old, and Tower Bridge is over one hundred. It was built in the 1890s. By 1850, everyone disagreed that a bridge across the Thames near the Tower was most necessary. Therefore the designers argued about the new bridge within another thirty years. They took so long because they had two big problems. The new bridge must look like the Tower--everybody said so. It must not look like a modem bridge. But because of the tall ships, it was necessary to have a modern bridge. At last two very clever designers had the idea of an opening bridge. They made it look like the old Tower. All the tall ships can easily come and go. Everyone was so happy.

32. What is the passage mainly about？

33.What can you see on the north side of Tower Bridge？

34.When did Tower Bridge come into being？

35.What kind of bridge is Tower Bridge？

(33)
