Most young people enjoy some form of physical activity. It may be walking, cycling or swimming, winter skating or skiing in winter. It may be a game of some kind, football, hockey, golf or tennis. It may be mountaineering(爬山).
Those who have a passion(热情)for climbing high and difficult mountains are often looked upon with astonishment. Why are men and women willing to suffer cold and hardship, and to take risks on high mountains? This astonishment is caused probably by the difference between mountaineering and other forms of activity to which men give their leisure.
Mountaineering is a sport and not a game. There are no man-made rules, as there are for such games as golf and football. There are, of course, rules of a different thing that it would be dangerous to ignore(忽视),but it is this freedom from man-made rules that makes mountaineering attractive to many people. Those who climb mountains are free to use their own methods.
If we compare mountaineering and other more familiar sports, we might think that one big difference is that mountaineering is not a “team game”. We should be mistaken in this. There are, it is true, no“matches”between“teams”of climbers, but when climbers are on a rock face linked by a rope on which their lives may depend, there is obviously teamwork.
The mountain climber knows that he may have to fight forces that are stronger and more powerful than men. He has to fight the forces of nature. His sport requires high mental and physical qualities
A mountain climber continues to improve in skill year after year. A skier is probably past his best by the age of thirty, and most international tennis champions are in their early twenties. But it is not unusual for a man of fifty or sixty to climb the highest mountains in the Alps. They may take more time than younger men, but they probably climb with more skill and less waste of efforts and they certainly experience equal enjoyment.
Mountaineering involves .
A.cold B.hardship C.physical risk D.all of the above
The difference between a sport and a game has something to do with the kind of .
A. activity B. rules C. uniform D. participants
Mountaineering can be called a team sport because .
A.it is an Olympic event
B.teams compete against each other
C.mountaineers depend on each other while climbing
D.there are 5 climbers on each team.
Which is the best title for the passage?
A.Mountaineering Is Different from Golf and Football k
B.Mountaineering Is More Attractive than Other Sports
C.Mountaineering
D.Mountain Climbers

Happiness is contagious (有感染力的), as researchers reported on Thursday.
People with the most social connections — spouses, friends, neighbors and relatives — were also the happiest, the data showed. “Each additional happy person makes you happier,” Christakis said.
“Imagine that I am connected to you and you are connected to others and others are connected to still others. It is this fabric of humanity, like an American patch quilt.”
Each person sits on a different colored patch. “Imagine that these patches are happy and unhappy patches. Your happiness depends on what is going on in the patch around you,” Christakis said.
“It is not just happy people connecting with happy people, which they do. Above and beyond, there is this contagious process going on.”
And happiness is more contagious than unhappiness, they discovered.
“If a social contact is happy, it increases the likelihood that you are happy by 15 percent, ” Fowler said. “A friend of a friend, or the friend of a spouse or a sibling (兄弟姐妹), if they are happy, increases your chances by 10 percent,” he added.
A happy third degree friend — the friend of a friend of a friend — increases a person’s chances of being happy by 6 percent.
“But every extra unhappy friend increases the likelihood that you’ll be unhappy by 7 percent,” Fowler said.
The finding is interesting and it is useful, too, Fowler said.
“Among other benefits, happiness has been shown to have an important effect on reduced mortality (死亡率), pain reduction, and improved cardiac (心脏的) function. So better understanding of how happiness spreads can help us learn how to develop a healthier society,” he said.
The study also fits in with other data suggested in 1984 that having $ 5,000 extra increased a person’s chances of becoming happier by about 2 percent.
“A happy friend is worth about $ 20,000,” Christakis said.
1.It can be inferred that________.
A.happiness spreads as fast and widely as unhappiness
B.unhappiness spreads faster and more widely than happiness
C.happiness spreads faster and more widely than unhappiness
D.the spread of unhappiness has not been studied by researchers
2.Which of the following will increase your chances of becoming happier most?
A.Being in a party with a happy atmosphere.
B.A happy experience of your brother or your parents.
C.A happy trip to a foreign country of your friends.
D.Happiness of your friend’s friend.
3.What does Christakis mean by saying “A happy friend is worth about $ 20,000”?
A.A happy friend can help you bring in a wealth of $ 20,000.
B.A happy friend is a wealth which is worth about $ 20,000.
C.A happy friend increases your chances of being happy by 2%.
D.A happy friend increases your chances of being happy by 8 %.
