4 Key Ingredients in the Search for Happiness
Do you want to be happy? Of course you do. These four ingredients may help you along your quest. At first l thought this would be an easy topic. But then I started to actually think about it, What makes me happy might not make you happy(and vice versa).
So I asked around the Matador team for what they thought brings them happiness, hoping for at least a couple of agreements. The responses were as random and varied as lottery results. The more common replies were related to friends, family and health.
Is it impossible for the loners and the sick to be happy? I don’t think so. Borrowing a page from Buddhist philosophy, Buddhists recognize that happiness-unfailing happiness-can only be found internally. The goal is to stop trying to change the world around us to bring happiness, but to change our minds. If we can't face ourselves and recognize that we are the source of our own happiness, what chance do we have? Anything external that we chase cannot bring everlasting happiness, only temporary and fleeting happiness ; at some point it will let us down.
Many things that we think will bring us happiness-a new car, new house, more friends-usually just cause us more pain and suffering. We’re constantly worried someone’s going to rob our home or break our hearts and hurt our feelings. A source of true happiness would not be able to cause us any suffering. To find happiness is a high goal and takes a devotion that most of us aren’t willing to give, even though it's in our own best interests. Instead, we continue to try to shape the world outside us, rather than trying to fix the inside. Here are four points to consider as you search for your own happiness;
1.Introspection(自省)
If we can't face ourselves and recognize that we are the source of our own happiness, what chance do we have? Happiness, is not “out there”.It’s in here. It’s easy to say, hard to put into practice. But the first step towards solving a problem is to recognize the source of it. Once we admit to ourselves that we--and only we--are responsible for our own happiness, then we, move forward in trying to attain it.
2.Freedom
Freedom as we know in the Westernized world is not true freedom. And this “freedom” will not bring us happiness.The wanting and the attachment to things we've managed to accumulate are the banes(祸害)to our happiness. We must free ourselves from our own desires to find true happiness.
3.Compassion
“Why are we compassionate (怜悯的) towards friends and family, but rarely towards strangers?” It’s because we share a connection with our family ,and friends ,either through blood or through similar interests. What if we could find a connection with complete strangers? With the rest of humanity? Might it make us more compassionate towards everybody? Because we do share something common: everybody-no exception-wants to be happy.
This desire to be happy is the motivating force behind every single thing that we do, from the moment we wake up to the time we fall asleep. So recognizing that the people we see on TV, the people we pass on the street, the people we never seen and never will see-want to be happy, just like us. Compassion gained through accepting this will make us better humans, will help us help each other, and will help to make ourselves happy.
4. Contentment
If you substitute “content” for “happy”, you'll probably find that you’re happy, Because we’ve associated happiness with laughing and smiling and I've never been that guy. So I’ve thought maybe I'm not happy. If you switch it for content…the practice of contentment…Oh god I’m happy. I’m a happy man. Oh, look at me!—Billy Connolly
In general, we may say we're happy. We might even have those moments where we sit back and realize how privileged we are, count our lucky stars, and feel like we have the world in our palms. But how long does this last? How long until the next person annoys us, until we see the next thing we “need”, until the next feelings of anxiousness steal away our happiness? If we can make the wanting stop and be content with what we have, we would find we can be more consistently happy.
问题 1~7,填写 Y(符合文章内容)；N(不符合文章内容)；NG(文章未提及)。
问题 8~10,根据文章内容补全句子。
1. The Matador team provided varied points about the factor leading to their happiness.
2. 2. According to Buddhist philosophy, we rely on our eternal word to be happy.
3. Pursuing external things can only bring short--tine happiness and sometimes may even disappoint us.
4. Shaping the world outside us rather than our inner world will help to make us happy.
5. The most important step for us towards attaining happiness in the real world is introspection.
6. To find happiness, we should get ourselves far away from wanting and addiction to things we have already gathered.
7. We usually show sympathy to those who are our family members or our friends.
8. What motivated us to do everything is .
9. Replacing the word “laughing” with the word “contentment” makes me .

三、阅读理解（共 30 分，每小题 2 分）
Passage 1
We've read how babies stare longer and cry less when led by pretty people, and heard tales of handsome children doing better in school, given special attention by their teachers. In life as in love, beautiful people seem to have it awfully easy. But what if we told you that when it comes to online dating, good looks could actually hurt you?
According to a recent survey of 43,000 users by OK Cupid, an online dating site, the more men disagree about a woman’s looks, the more they end up liking her. What does that mean for ladies looking for a match? “We now have evidence that weakening your ‘weaknesses’ is the opposite of what you should do,” says the site’s co-founder, Christian Rudder. “If you’re a little fat, show it up. If you have a big nose, show it up. Statistically, the guys who don't like it can only help you, and the ones who do like it will be all the more excited.”
The results of this study end up highlighting an idea that recent scientific research does indeed support. Which is this: the beautiful may have it good, but online, as in work and life, women who are too attractive don't always have an advantage. Beauty creates more competition-among women, taught they must out-look each other for men and jobs and everyday satisfaction; and-among men, who are competing for the most attractive prize. All of that might help explain why 47 percent of corporate recruiters believe it's possible for a woman to suffer for being “too good-looking”; why attractive women tend to face heightened examination from their female peers, or, finally, why men on OK Cupid end up contacting women who may ultimately be less attractive-because it removes the opposition.
In the end, being beautiful will always have its blessings-but sometimes, there's more to an advantage than meets the eye.
31. It is generally believed that beautiful people____.
A. have less difficulty in life B. are less worded about love
C. pay less attention to others D. like to gaze at lovely babies
32.The OK Cupid survey found that men's arguments over a woman's looks____.
A. have little meaning B. benefit online dating
C. will actually hurt her D. add to her popularity
33.Christian Rudder advises women to____.
A. show up their physical advantages B. view their popularity scientifically
C. highlight their physical weaknesses D. accept guys who are willing to help
34.The attitude of women toward their attractive peers is____.
A. critical B. friendly C. conservative. D. straightforward
35.The main idea of the text is that a woman's good looks ____.
A. help to shape ideas of beauty B. can put her at a disadvantage
C. end up with blessings for her D. will always appeal to the eye
Passage 2
Given the choice, younger professionals are most interested in working at tech companies like Apple and government agencies like the State Department, but they are less interested in working in the financial industry, according to a survey conducted by Universum, a research firm.
What attracts college graduates to big tech companies like Apple is mainly the cool factor surrounding these companies and their products. As the survey found young professionals were most influenced by the strength of the corporation's brand when picking their most desired companies.
By contrast, financial institutions like Citigroup, whose brands have been spoiled in recent years by the collapse of the financial industry, ranked in the lower half of the list of 99 companies desired by young professionals.
Beyond the power of a company's brand, college graduates were also heavily influenced by the financial stability of each company, which may explain, why major corporations like Apple would rank at the top, since they are constantly expanding and hiring new employees. On the other hand, government agencies, which were slightly worse than the tech companies, may have been hurt by weaknesses in recent years, given that the public sector as a whole has been forced to freeze wages and lay off employees.
Universum, which surveyed more than 10,000 young professionals who graduated from college in the last eight years, also found that many of them are looking to switch jobs in the near future. In fact, half of those surveyed claimed to have applied to other jobs in the past year and a quarter plan to switch jobs within six months, suggesting that the organizations at the top of this list may be flooded with new applications in the coming months.
36. The Universum survey found that college graduates____.
A. are sponsored by government agencies
B. refuse to work in the financial industry
C. are given better choices in employment D. prefer to work at major tech companies
37. According to Kortney Kutsop, young professionals nowadays____.
A. are brand-conscious in job hunting
B. are brand-conscious in consumption
C. are eager to be innovative employees D. are eager to BH the key to success
38. Citigroup has become less appealing to young job seekers due to____.
A .its poor service B. its worse reputation
C. its lack of creativity D. its heavy workload
39.Compared with those at tech companies, jobs at government agencies in recent years____.
A. are better paid B. are better rated
C. are less secure D. are less demanding
40. In the survey, a majority or young professionals who graduated from college in the last eight years____.
A are influenced by financial instability B. are employed by big tech companies
C. have decided to change their careers D. have found jobs in the public sector
Passage 3
We have heard a lot about the health benefits of tea, especially green tea. It is high in polyphenols(茶多酚), compounds with strong antioxidant(抗氧化物)activity that in test-tube and animal models show anti-cancer and heart-protective effects. Good clinical studies are few, however, and although physicians tell their patients to drink green tea, there hasn't been any definite proof of the value of that advice.
A team of Japanese researchers was able to link green tea consumption with decreased death rates from many causes-including heart disease. The researchers tracked 40,530 healthy adults ages 40 to 79 in a region of northeastern Japan where most people drink green tea, following them for up to 11 years. Those who drank five or more cups of green tea a day had significantly lower death rates than those who drank less than one cup a day. There were also fewer deaths from heart-related disease.
But no such association was seen with deaths from cancer. Nor was consumption of oolong or black tea connected with any decrease in death rates. Those teas are easier to be combined with oxygen in processing, which not only darkens the color of the leaves and changes their flavor but also reduces their polyphenol content.
A group of investigators, from Finland, Italy and the Netherlands reports that coffee seems to protect against age-related decline in mental capacity. The scientists studied 676 healthy men born from 1900 to 1920 and followed them for 10 years, using standardized measures of brain function. Their conclusion: the men who consumed coffee had significantly less decline in mental capacity than those who didn't. Three cups a day seemed to provide the most protection.
Population studies like those help us form prediction about relationships between dietary habits and long-term health. We still have to test our prediction in controlled conditions, and measure the effects of coffee and tea on various systems of the body.
41. Physicians often tell their patients to drink green tea because____.
A. its medical value has been proved
B. it is believed to be good for one's health
C. it has long since been used clinically
D. its effectiveness has been shown in animals
42.The Japanese study seems to have confirmed the positive effect of green tea on____.
A. young adults B. Asian people
C. patients with cancer D. patients with heart disease
43.The text indicates that black tea differs from green tea in that____.
A. it can retain the color of its leaves B. it can reduce cancer-related deaths
C. it contains less antioxidant content D. it is stronger in flavor than the latter
44.Coffee is beneficial to one's health because____.
A. it has more antioxidants than green tea
B. it slows down the rate of brain aging.
C. it lowers the rate of natural death
D. it keeps systems of the body active
45.The text indicates that the relationships between dietary habits and long-term health____.
A. are a falsely perceived supposition B. are a conflicting issue among people
C. deserve further scientific research D. de serve to be tested on a larger population
