An Epidemic (流行病) f Depressin? Seligman is leading the charge in what might be called Happiness Revlutin in psychlgy. Since Wrld War II, psychlgists have fcused n fixing what is brken — repairing psychsis (精神病), and neursis(神经衰弱). Research has piles up steadily when it cmes t lking at patients wh are neurtic, while the happy r jyful peple amng us have received little scientific examinatin.
When Seligman did a search t find academic articles abut such “psitive psychlgy” he fund nly 800 ut f 70,000. “Psychlgists tend t be cncerned with taking a negative 8 persn, and helping him get t negative 2,” said Seligman, a University f Pennsylvania psychlgy prfessr. “My aim is t take a plus 2 persn and bst him t a plus 6.”
In the last 50 years, statistics have shwn that we are less happy as a peple. “While ur quality f life has increased dramatically ver that time, and we’ve becme richer, we’re in an epidemic f depressin,” Seligman said. “Depressin is 10 times mre cmmn nw, and life satisfactin rates are dwn as well.” Seligman argues that the new science he writes abut is shifting psychlgy’s mdel away frm its narrw-minded fcus n pathlgy, victimlgy, and mental illness twards psitive emtin, virtue and strength, and psitive institutins that increase peple’s happiness. If yu want t be happy, frget abut winning the lttery, getting a nse jb, r securing a raise. In his new bk, Authentic Happiness, psychlgist Martin Seligman argues that verall lifetime happiness is nt the result f gd genes, mney, r even luck. Instead, he says we can bst ur wn happiness by making use f the strengths and traits that we already have, including kindness, riginality, humr, ptimism, and genersity. He has named the discipline “Psitive Psychlgy,” arguing that we wuld be better ff building n ur wn strengths rather than bemaning, and hence, trying t repair, ur weakness. By frequently calling upn their strengths, peple can build up natural barriers against misfrtune and negative emtins, he said.
T cultivate happiness, we must first find ut ur individual strengths and virtues. Next, apply the qualities in such a way as t enhance ur happiness-generating system.
51. Why culd Seligman’s wrk be called Happiness Revlutin?
A. Because happy r jyful peple amng us als suffer frm illness.
B. Because psychlgy is the emtinal characteristic f an individual.
C. Because psychlgy is the science that deals with mental prcesses and behavir.
D. Because traditinal research n psychlgy rarely cncerns happy r jyful peple.
52. What des Seligman mean by saying “take a plus 2 persn and bst him t a plus 6”?
A. We shuld fcus n happy r jyful peple.
B. The number f happy r jyful peple will increase by 4.
C. “Psitive psychlgy” articles need t be published mre.
D. Happy peple amng us als need imprve their mentality.

A. gd genes, mney r luckB. psitive mental status
C. cntented life.D. a gd jb.

These days, it's nt unusual t see middle-aged men cllecting Star Wars actin figures, ffice wrkers wearing Hell Kitty accessries, r celebrities like David Beckham playing with Leg bricks. It's becming mre and mre cmmn t see adults taking an interest in tys, cmic bks and the activities that are traditinally assciated with children. This phenmenn has given rise t a new wrd: kidult.
What lies behind the phenmenn? One is abut adults' nstalgia (怀旧之情)fr the carefree days f childhd, and this is especially true with tday's fast-paced, stressful lifestyles. Anther is abut a scietal change in recent decades where peple are starting families later. As a result, they have mre time and mney t spend n themselves. Sme adults culd nly windw-shp fr their dream tys when they were kids, but nw they can affrd that radi cntrlled car r high-priced dll they have always wanted.

Sciety traditinally disapprves f adults wh refuse t put aside childhd interests, viewing the refusal as a sign f scial immaturity and irrespnsibility. Thse wh agree with this view smetimes claim that kidults are suffering frm the pp-psychlgy cncept knwn as Peter Pan Syndrme, an anmaly (异常)that peple remain emtinally at the level f teenagers. On a grander scale, these kidult ppnents (对手)argue that such delayed adulthd causes cuples t marry later and have fewer children. This in turn can lead t shrinking natinal ecnmies, fr there needs t be a generatinal replenishment (补充)f the wrkfrce.
Frm the standpint f kidults, thugh, this phenmenn is seen as nthing but harmless fun. Kidults insist that having yuthful interests keeps them yung, happy and creative, and their refusal t cnfrm t sciety's acceptable tastes shws independent thinking. Besides, they argue that being part f the scial trend f delayed adulthd is nt purely a persnal chice. The real causes include expensive husing, increased educatinal requirements fr emplyment and pr wrk pprtunities.
Whether the kidult phenmenn will cntinue t grw r prve t be a passing trend is anyne's guess. As the debate abut it cntinues, remember that there is nthing wrng with being yung at heart.

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了著名的体操运动员道格拉斯的成长经历以及取得的成就。
【61题详解】
考查推理判断。根据第三段中的“S ff she went abut 1,200 miles t West Des Mines, Iwa, t train with a cach frm China and live with a white family she had never been met.(于是,她去了大约1200英里外的爱荷华州西得梅因,跟随一位来自中国的教练训练,住在一个她从未见过的白人家庭里)”以及第四段中的“Liang Chw, wh had cached the Olympic gld medalist Shawn Jhnsn, transfrmed Duglas int ne f the best gymnasts in the wrld…(曾指导过奥运金牌得主肖恩·约翰逊的周亮,将道格拉斯培养成了世界上最好的体操运动员之一)”可知,Duglas跟随一位来自中国的教练训练,教练将道格拉斯培养成世界上最好的体操运动员之一。由此推知,道格拉斯因为需要训练成为一名体操运动员而离开家园。故答案为Because she needed training t be a gymnast.
【62题详解】
考查细节理解。根据第三段中的“When she arrived, Duglas thught that she must be the nly black persn in the state. When she wke up, she always said, “This isn’t my bed set. Where am I?”(当她到达时,道格拉斯认为她一定是这个州唯一的黑人。当她醒来时,她总是说:“这不是我的床具。我在哪儿?”)”可知, 可知,道格拉斯到达之后,觉得自己是这个州唯一的黑人,每次醒来的时候都不知道自己在哪里。由此可知,道格拉斯第一次到达新家后觉得不安。故答案为She felt uneasy.
【63题详解】
考查词句猜测。根据划线词下文“frm an average member f the natinal team t the tp f the sprt.”可知,帮她从一个普普通通的队员到这项运动中的拔尖人员,这应该是很大的提升,迅速的提升。由此可知,划线单词的意思应与“快速的提升”意义相近。故答案为 Sar. /Rise rapidly. /Increase suddenly/greatly.
【64题详解】
考查细节理解。根据第五段中的“That mve als was imprtant in Duglas’s making histry. By winning the Olympic all-rund title, she became the first black wman t d s.(这一搬迁对道格拉斯的历史创造也很重要。通过赢得奥运会全能冠军,她成为第一位获得这一殊荣的黑人女性)”可知,赢得奥运会全能冠军使得她成为第一位获此殊荣的黑人女性。由此可知,她是第一位获得奥运会全能冠军的黑人女性。故答案为She is the first black wman t win the Olympic all-rund title.
【65题详解】
开放性题目。言之有理,注意词数限制。如根据尾段中的“Duglas said she had felt cnfident all alng that she wuld win. “It was just an amazing feeling.” she said, giggling (咯咯笑). “I was just like, believe, dn’t fear, believe.” After sacrificing s much, she had n ther chice but t push frward, she said.(道格拉斯说,她一直对自己会获胜充满信心。“这是一种奇妙的感觉。她咯咯地笑着说。“我只是说,相信,不要害怕,相信。”她说,在牺牲了这么多之后,她别无选择,只能继续前进)”可知,道格拉斯一直对自己获胜充满信心,在牺牲了这么多后,她别无选择,只能继续前进。由此可知,道格拉斯是一个意志坚定的人。故答案为She is strng-minded because after she wn the game, she said “I was just like, believe, dn’t fear, believe.”
