A German study suggests that people who were too optimistic about their future actually faced greater risk of disability or death within 10 years than those pessimists who expected their future to be worse.
The paper, published this March in Psychology and Aging, examined health and welfare surveys from roughly 40,000 Germans between ages 18 and 96. The surveys were conducted every year from 1993 to 2003.
Survey respondents were asked to estimate their present and future life satisfaction on a scale of 0 to 10, among other questions.
The researchers found that young adults (age 18 to 39) routinely overestimated their future life satisfaction, while middle-aged adults (age 40 to 64) more accurately predicted how they would feel in the future. Adults of 65 and older, however, were far more likely to underestimate their future life satisfaction. Not only did they feel more satisfied than they thought they would, the older pessimists seemed to suffer a lower ratio of disability and death for the study period.
“We observed that being too optimistic in predicting a better future than actually observed was associated with a greater risk of disability and a greater risk of death within the following decade,” wrote Frieder R. Lang, a professor at the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg.
Lang and his colleagues believed that people who were pessimistic about their future may be more careful about their actions than people who expected a rosy future.
“Seeing a dark future may encourage positive evaluations of the actual self and may contribute to taking improved precautions (预防措施),” the authors wrote.
Surprisingly, compared with those in poor health or who had low incomes, respondents who enjoyed good health or income were associated with expecting a greater decline. Also, the researchers said that higher income was related to a greater risk of disability.
The authors of the study noted that there were limitations to their conclusions. Illness, medical treatment and personal loss could also have driven health outcomes.
However, the researchers said a pattern was clear. “We found that from early to late adulthood, individuals adapt their expectations of future life satisfaction from optimistic, to accurate, to pessimistic,” the authors concluded.
1.According to the study, who made the most accurate prediction of their future life satisfaction?
A. Optimistic adults.
B. Middle-aged adults.
C. Adults in poor health.
D. Adults of lower income.
2.Pessimism may be positive in some way because it causes people________.
A. to fully enjoy their present life
B. to estimate their contribution accurately
C. to take measures against potential risks
D. to value health more highly than wealth
3.How do people of higher income see their future?
A. They will earn less money.
B. They will become pessimistic.
C. They will suffer mental illness.
D. They will have less time to enjoy life.
4.What is the clear conclusion of the study?
A. Pessimism guarantees chances of survival.
B. Good financial condition leads to good health.
C. Medical treatment determines health outcomes.
D. Expectations of future life satisfaction decline with age.

Finding the Real You
Psychometric testing—personality testing—has been very popular nowadays as studies show their results to be three times more accurate in predicting your job performance. These tests are now included in almost all graduate recruitment (招聘) and are widely used in the selection of managers.
The most popular of these personality tests is the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI). It is based on the theory that we are born with a tendency to one personality type which stays more or less fixed throughout life. You answer 88 questions and are then given your “type”, such as Outgoing or Quiet, Feeling or Thinking.
Critics of personality testing raise doubts about “social engineering”. Psychologist Dr. Colin Gill warns that the “popular” personality traits (特性) have their disadvantages. “People who are extremely open to new experiences can be butterflies, going from one idea to the next without mastering any of them.” However, the psychometric test is here to stay, which may be why a whole sub-industry on cheating personality tests has sprung up. “It’s possible to cheat,” admits Gill, “but having to pretend to be the person you are at work will be tiring and unhappy and probably short-lived.”
So can we change our personality? “Your basic personality is fixed by the time you’re 21,”says Gill,“ but it can be affected by motivation and intelligence. If you didn’t have the personality type to be a doctor but desperately wanted to be one and were intelligent enough to master the skills, you could still go ahead. But trying to go too much against type for too long requires much energy and is actually to be suffered for long. I think it’s why we’re seeing this trend for downshifting—too many people trying to fit in to a type that they aren’t really suited for.”
Our interest in personality now exists in every part of our lives. If you ask an expert for advice on anything, you’ll probably be quizzed about your personality. But if personality tests have any value to us, perhaps it is to free us from the idea that all of us are full of potential, and remind us of what we are. As they say in one test when they ask for your age: pick the one you are, not the one you wish you were.
1.The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator is based on the belief that ______.
A. certain personality traits are common
B. personality is largely decided from birth
C. some personality types are better than others
D. personality traits are various from time to time
2.According to Dr. Gill, what is the problem with personality tests?
A. Employers often find the results unclear.
B. They may have a negative effect on takers.
C. People can easily lie about their true abilities.
D. The results could be opposite to what employers want.
3. In Dr. Gill’s view, how easy is it to change your personality?
A. It’s possible in your adult life.
B. It’s easy if you have great motivation.
C. It’s difficult before the age of 21.
D. It’s unlikely because it requires much energy.
4.What final conclusion does the author reach about the value of personality tests?
A. They are not really worth doing.
B. They may encourage greater realism.
C. They are of doubtful value to employers.
D. They can strengthen the idea we have of our abilities.

Child development
People live much longer than most other animals, so human childhood also lasts a long time. Unlike baby animals, human children need many years to learn how to live on their own as adults. As children’s bodies grow, so do their minds. 1.
There are several stages of child development. Infancy (婴儿期) is the most helpless stage. Over their first year infants gradually learn to roll over, sit up, crawl (爬), and take their first steps with someone helping them. As they grow out of infancy, babies begin to make sounds similar to words.
The toddler stage (学步期) begins when a baby starts to walk, usually at about the age of 1. Most children also start saying words at about this time. As toddlers grow they become stronger and have more control of their bodies. Their thinking skills also improve. 2. They like to copy what other people say and do.
Between the ages of 3 and 5, children are in the preschool stage. Children learn many important skills during this stage. They learn to share and to take turns. 3. Playing with others helps them learn how to get along with all kinds of people.
Starting school marks a new stage. Children’s minds develop quickly as they learn reading and writing. They also learn more about cooperating with others.
Between 9 and 12 years old, children are preteens. 4. They become better at controlling their behavior. Preteens also understand how to be helpful to others.
5. As preteens become teenagers, they move one step closer to becoming adults and living on their own.
A. This growth is called child development.
B. As their bodies grow stronger, they try sports.
C. They learn how to play simple games with rules.
D. During this stage they become much more independent.
E. The end of the preteen years marks the end of childhood.
F. They slowly start putting words together to make sentences.
G. Preteens also become more aware of the world beyond their home.

注意：1. 每处错误及其修改均仅限一词；

Though great progress has made in science these years, there are still many people living in poor conditions. They make their lives by collecting and selling used thing. Their children cannot go to school because they have not enough money to send their children to there. Why you think so many people still suffer from poverty now? The answer lies on the population explosion. A president of a developing country once said; "It is us who are to blame for the poverty because we used to 'produce' child without limit." Although this few words sound simple enough, they have clear pointed out one of the causes of the population explosion.
