in表示在一个时间范围，或者接一段时间，表示多久之后；of大约……的，表示所有关系。本句中星期六下午是具体某一天，故介词用on，故选A项。

13.B

14.A

15.A【分析】这是一篇说明文。介绍了古希腊人的生活目标，Eudaimonia与happiness的区别，鼓励人们尽一切努力寻找满足感。【12题详解】推理判断题。由第二段“TheAncientGreeksdidnotbelievethatthepurposeoflifewastobehappy;theyproposedthatitwastoachieveEudaimonia,awordwhichhasbeenbesttranslatedas“fulfilment”.古希腊人不相信生活的目的是快乐；他们提出，生活的目的是为了实现Eudaimonia，这个词最好翻译理解为“满足”可知，在古希腊，Eudaimonia被认为是生活的目的。故D选项正确。【13题详解】推理判断题。由第三段“Whatdistinguisheshappinessfromfulfilmentispain.Itisverypossibletobefulfilledand—atthesametime—underpressure,sufferingphysicallyormentally,overburdenedand,quitefrequently,inanirritablemood.Thisisaslightpsychologicaldifferencethatishardfortheword“happiness”toca
