22、Section BDirections: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A) About 4

23、0 years ago the famous British band The Beatles sang that “money cant buy me love”. Today British economists are saying that it perhaps cant buy you happiness either. This is showed by the happy planet index (HPI快乐指数) published recently by the New Economics Foundation NEF in London. The index is abo

24、ut how well countries are using their resources. It shows how well they provide people with better health and longer and happier lives and at what cost to their environment. It would seem to be a common sense that people in richer countries live happier lives while those in developing countries are

25、having a harder time. But the results are surprising even shocking. The numbers show that some of the so-called developed countries are performing very badly. The United States for example ranks number 150. On the other hand some little-known developing countries are doing a much better job. A tiny

26、island in the Pacific Vanuatu comes in first. There are 178 countries and areas in the index. China ranks number 31. Countries are graded on the basis of information supplied in response to the following questions. How do people feel about their lives How long does an average person live How much of

27、 its natural resources does a country need to use to keep its living standard This is what the index calls the “ecological footprint”. The NEF found that people from island nations enjoy the highest HPI rankings. The index points out that people in the US and Germany enjoy similar lives. However Ger

29、passage the most shocking thing is that _. A. Vanuatu comes in first in the index B. China ranks number 31 in the index C. America comes in number 150 D. there are 178 countries and areas in the index CBC(B)Are some people born clever, and others born stupid? Or is intelligence developed by our envi

30、ronment and our experiences? Strangely enough, the answer to both these questions is yes. To some extent our intelligence is given us at birth, and no amount of special education can make a genius out of a child born with low intelligence. On the other hand, a child who lives in a boring environment

31、 will develop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich and varied surroundings. Thus the limits of a persons intelligence are fixed at birth, but whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment. This view, now held by most experts, can be supported in a number of ways.It is easy to show that intelligence is to some extent something we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be in intelligence. Thus if we take two unrelated people at random(任意的) from the population, it is likely that their degrees of int
