19．Imagine you are standing on the 70^th floor of the Empire State Building，staring at the cityscape．Suddenly a man pushes past you，opens the window and announces his intention to jump．You yell out，"Stop!Don't do it!"the six-foot-five figure turns to you and menacingly （恐吓地） says，"Try to stop me and I'll take you with me!"
"Umm…No problem，sir．have a good trip．any last words？"
"Let me tell you my troubles，"he says，"my wife left me，my kids won't talk to me，I lost my job and my pet turtle died，so why should I go on living？"
Suddenly you have a flash of inspiration．"Sir，close your eyes for a minute and imagine that you are blind．No colors，no sights of children playing，no fields of flowers，no sunset．Now imagine that suddenly there's a miracle．You open your eyes and your vision is restored!Are you going to jump？Or will you stick around for a week to enjoy the sights？"
"I'll stay for a wee k．"
"But what happened to all the troubles？"
"I guess they're not so bad．I can see!"
"Well，your eyesight is worth at least five million dollars．You're a rich man!"
If you really appreciate your eyesight，the other pains are insignificant．But if you take it all for granted，then nothing in life will ever truly give you joy．Actually，there are misconceptions on the road to happiness．
misconception1："Once I know the tools for being happy，then it will work like magic．"
Don't expect the results to come automatically．It is possible to understand how to achieve happiness，yet not put it into practice．In fact，many people actually prefer to be comfortable and unhappy，rather than bear the discomfort of changing their habits．Just as learning any new skill requires effort，you have to be willing to invest serious effort to achieve real happiness．
Misconception 2："if I become content and satisfied with what I have，I'll lose my motivation to achieve more．"
Now ask someone who is depressed，"Let's go fishing!""I'm tired．Maybe tomorrow．And anyway，I might rain…"in reality，happy people are energetic and ambitious．There's never enough time to do everything they want to do．
Misconception 3：
A beautiful Sunday afternoon，you're in the park having a picnic with friends．Suddenly one person complains："who forgot the forks？It's too hot for volleyball．I want to go home already．"
When our mood negatively affects others，we recognize we have duty to be happy and not spoil the fun．But what about when we're at home with our family？Or when we go into the office on Monday morning？like an open pit in the middle of the road，a sourpuss（牢骚满腹的人） is a public danger．Being happy is part of being considerate to the people around us．
29．The story is placed at the beginning of the passage in order toD．
A．tell a skill of persuasion
B．warn the danger of standing on a tall building
C．emphasize the importance of eyesight
D．introduce the theme of the passage
30．What can be inferred from the underlined sentences？B
A．Everything has a price．
B．We should value what we have．
C．Every dog has its day．
D．Eyesight is more important．
31．What is right about happy？C
A．Happy is a gift．
B．Happy is limited．
C．Happy is contagious （会传染的）．
D．Happy is no more than a skill．
32．The best subtitle of Misconception 3 isD．
A．If unhappy occurs at home，I needn't pretend to be happy
B．If I can't make others unhappy，I won't be happy．
C．If someone is happy，then others around them are happy．
D．If I want to be depressed，that's my own prerogative．

11．It is generally believed that money can't buy happiness．However，that may not be always true．According to a recent article，in the last few years，new research has given us a far deeper understanding of the relationship between what we earn and how we feel．Broadly speaking，people with higher incomes are happier than those who struggle to get by．But it also shows you need to spend wisely if you expect those bank notes to put a smile on your face．（36）B
1．Buy experiences，not material goods．
In a recently published study，Professor Ryan at San Francisco State University in the US，found that when people don't have much money to spare，they tend to stick to material goods．（37）EBut they actually provide both more happiness and more lasting value．
2．（38）F
No matter how much money you spend on something and how special that product is，you will get used to having it over time and lose interest in it．With the same money you spend on one big object，you can buy many little things．Buying small things means you can get frequent small pleasures．
3．Be sure to buy time．
（39）GFor example，that big house in the suburbs may seem like a good idea，but a 2014 study by researchers from University of Zurich in Switzerland found that people with longer time on the way reported lower life satisfaction，all other things being equal．
4．Try giving it away．
Elizabeth Dunn，professor at the University of British Columbia in Canada，found that in nations as diverse as Canada，South Africa and Uganda，giving away money consistently made people happier．（40）C

A．Be sure to buy what you like．
B．Here are some ways to better spend your money．
C．This was even true when people giving away were relatively poor．
D．There are a lot of reasons someone might buy something．
E．People think experiences only provide temporary happiness．
F．Buy lots of little things，rather than one big thing．
G．Consider how the things you buy will affect how you spend your time．
