The trees in the school yard would be in full leaf again and the old leaves would be lying around like a muddy sea

28、 of leaves.“Get that all swept up!” the headmaster would tell us. “I want the whole place cleaned up, at once!” There was enough work there, to last over a week. Especially since the only tools with which we were provided were our hands, our fingers, our nails. “Now see that its done properly, and b

29、e quick about it,” the headmaster would say to the elder pupils, “or youll have to answer for it!”So at an order from the elder boys we would all line up like peanuts about to cut and gather in crops. If the work was not going as quickly as the headmaster expected, the big boys, instead of giving us

30、 a helping hand, used to find it simpler to beat us with branches pulled from the trees. In order to avoid these blows, we used to bribe (贿赂) the elder boys with the juicy cakes we used to bring for our midday meal. And if we happened to have any money on us, the coins changed hands at once. If we d

31、id not do this, or if we were afraid of going home with an empty stomach or an empty purse, the blows were redoubled. They hit us so violently and with such evil enjoyment even a deaf and dumb person would have realized that we were being beaten not so much to make us work harder, hut rather to beat

32、 us into a state of obedience (服从) in which we would be only too glad to give up our food and money.Occasionally one of us, worn out by such calculated cruelty, would have the courage to complain to the headmaster. He would of course be very angry, but the punishment he gave the elder boys was alway

33、s very small nothing compared to what they had clone to us. And the fact is that however much we complained, our situation did not improve in the slightest. Perhaps we should have let our parents know what was going on, but somehow we never dreamed of doing so; I dont know whether it was loyalty or

34、pride that kept us silent, but I can see now that we were foolish to keep quiet about it, for such beating was completely foreign to our nature.1、The statement “my hands and my fingers still remember” (Para. 1) means that _.Athe author seldom did such hard work as the cleaning upBthe authors hands w

38、 life satisfaction of UK citizens, the ball is in the governments court. For some time, sensible people have been arguing that governments need to focus less on economic growth and more on the wellbeing（幸福）of citizens. Be careful what you wish for.In response to this demand, from 2011 David Cameron

39、instructed the Office for National Statistics to gather data on peoples self-reported happiness and life satisfaction. Little practical good has come from this so far, but a new report by George Bangham for the Resolution Foundation is one of the best attempts to make useful sense of the data. He co

40、ncludes: “The best prospects for policymakers targeting future increases in national wellbeing lie in raising job quality, raising incomes, particularly at the lower end, and policies to improve security in the housing market.”The age correlation（相关）turns out to be certainly linked to politics, desp

41、ite the fact that no political party can make a difference to your date of birth. The happiness of pensioners is not just a function of their age, but of policy. On average, 70-year-old boomers today are the most affluent retirees in history, often owning their own homes and in receipt of generous p

42、ensions. People of 70 are not going to be as content in 30 or 40 years time if they are unable to retire, dont own their homes and have small incomes.However, there is one respect in which teens and recent retirees are remarkably similar. Compared to other age groups, they tend to inhabit a sweet sp

43、ot of having high degrees of freedom. The typical 16-year-old has new freedoms without ever having had any serious responsibilities. The typical 70-year-old, having experienced a lifetime of work and family duties, has a very different kind of freedom, one born from relief.Besides，it should not surp

44、rise us to find that people tend to be happier when they have fewer worries. But this, too, has important political implications. If the government is really interested in raising overall national happiness, it has to make sure as many citizens as possible feel secure in their health, their housing

45、and their incomes. Different states records in achieving this is one important reason why Nordic countries repeatedly score highly in international life satisfaction surveys and North America underperforms relative to its GDP.Whichever way you look at it, there is no escaping the conclusion that inc

46、reasing wellbeing across society requires joined-up, long-term policy efforts. This is exactly what the Resolution Foundation recommends.1、What can be conveyed from the sentence “the ball is in the governments court” in Paragraph 1?AThe government officials are fond of playing ball games.BThe govern

47、ment determines national happiness.CThe government makes citizens feel happy.DThe government is in a ball game.2、What does the underlined word “affluent” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?AResponsible.BCareful.CHonest.DRich.3、According to the author, the secret to happiness is freedom and _.AincomeBhealt

We all have time-consuming or difficult chores were afraid of, and drag out until

49、 the last minute if we complete them at all.But what if we could drive ourselves into those boring tasks by pairing them with something we really enjoy? Research suggests that combining the things we want to do with the things we should do could be a nice trick to reaching our goals. The method is k

50、nown as “temptation bundling (捆绑)” and it allows you to combine two different, but complementary (补充的) activities at the same time.“I only let myself get a footbath when Im doing some work,” says Katherine Milkman, a professor of behavioral economics at the University of Pennsylvania. Another exampl

Go to your favorite restaurant with a difficult colleague or someone youre supposed to spend time with, such as a relative.In short, its pairing a thing you like with something you dont like that offers you motivation to do something you might be putting off.Exercise is one activity routinely bei

52、ng treated as a chore so Milkman used it in an experiment to know how temptation bundling works in reality.In her experiment, Milkman encouraged students to exercise while listening to addictive, turning audiobooks. One group, which could only access the audiobooks while at the gym, were 51% more li

53、kely to exercise than the control group, which were able to listen when they liked. Another group, whose access to the audiobooks was not restricted but who were merely encouraged to bundle the activities, were 29% more likely to exercise than the control group.The benefit of temptation bundling com

54、es from doing two things that go well together at one time, says Milkman. “The secret is to bundle tasks that require different effort. For example, if one task requires focus or concentration, you want the other not to be too distracting reading while listening to a podcast is very difficult, for e
