33、xes (话匣子) to take the term “handsfree” to a new levelby talking into them as they make a call. The gloves are known as “Talk to the Hand” and cost 1,000 a pair. They fixed a speaker unit into the thumb and a microphone into the little finger that can be connected to any mobile handset using Bluetoot

34、h.Artist Sean Miles designed the new gloves that double as a phone in part of his project that shows the possibilities of gadget (小玩意) recycling. He uses outdated gloves and bines them with parts from mobile handsets recycled through O2, which missioned (承担) the project. Mobile phone users will be a

35、ble to keep their hands warm while they chat without taking their phones out of their pockets or handbags.Mr. Miles designed two pairs of the new gloves one in pink and the other in brown and yellow. They will appear in an exhibition this July and visitors will be able to win the gloves. If demand i

36、s high, they will then be produced on a larger scale. O2 Recycle, which backed the project, estimates that there are already 70 million unused mobile handsets in the UK. The service pays up to 260 to those who recycle gadgets including phones, handheld consoles (操纵台), MP3 players and digital cameras

37、.Designer Sean Miles hopes his work will get people thinking about recycling. The 41-year-old said, “I hope that my Talk to the Hand project will get people to think again about the waste created by not recycling gadgets. If a few more people recycle their gadgets rather than send them to trash, I t

38、hink this project will have fulfilled its aim.”Bill Eyres, head of O2 Recycle, urges people to recycle their phone responsibly. He said, “Theres a pressing need for all of us to look at outdated handsets, and all the gadgets that we move on from or upgrade each year. Whether they are consoles or cam

39、eras, we should think of them as a resource that we need to recycle responsibly rather than throw them away.” 48. The underlined word “O2” in Paragraph 2 is probably the name of _.

42、e to their mouth and asked a simple question, “Are you happy?”The question has caught many interviewees off guard. Even Mo Yan, who just won a Nobel Prize, responded by saying, “I dont know”.While the question has bee a buzz phrase and the Internet plays host to heated discussions, we ask: What exac

43、tly is happiness? And how do you measure it?In the 1776 US Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson set in writing the peoples unalienable right to “Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness”. 235 years on, Wen Jiabao told the nation, “Everything we do is aimed at letting people live more happ

44、ily.” At National Peoples Congress, officials agreed that increasing happiness would be a top target for the 12th five-year plan.US psychologist Ed Diener, author of Happiness: Unlocking the Mysteries of Psychological Wealth, describes happiness as “a bination of life satisfaction and having more po

45、sitive than negative emotions” according to US broadcasting network PBS. This may sound straightforward enough, but it still doesnt explain what determines peoples happiness.Many argue that happiness is elusive and that there is no single source. It also means different things to different people. F

46、or some, happiness can be as simple as having enough cash.Researchers believe happiness can be separated into two types: daily experiences of hedonic (享乐的) well-being; and evaluative well-being, the way people think about their lives as a whole. The former refers to the quality of living, whereas th

47、e latter is about overall happiness, including life goals and achievements. Happiness can cross both dimensions (范围).Li Jun, a psychologist and mental therapy practitioner at a Beijing clinic, says, “Happiness can mean both the most basic human satisfaction or the highest level of spiritual pursuit.

48、 Its a simple yet profound topic.”Chen Shangyuan, 21, a junior English major at Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, said his idea of happiness always evolves. “At present it relates to how productive I am in a day,” he said. “It might be linked to job security or leisure time after I

49、 graduate.”Then there is the question of measuring happiness. Does it depend on how many friends we have, or whether we own the latest smart phone? Is it even quantifiable?Economists are trying to measure happiness in peoples lives. Since 1972, Bhutans GDP measurement has been replaced by a Gross Na

50、tional Happiness index. It is calculated according to the peoples sense of being well-governed, their relationship with the environment, their satisfaction with economic development, and their sense of national belonging.In xx, US economist Joseph Stiglitz proposed “to shift emphasis from measuring

51、economic production to measuring peoples well-being”. But is well-being more easily measured?52. From what Thomas Jefferson and Wen Jiabao mentioned in the passage, we know _.A. peoples happiness is determined by great peopleB. peoples happiness is an important target for the development of a countr

52、yC. people in all countries have the right to ask the government for a happy lifeD. people both in China and America are living a happy life53.

The Secret of HappinessD If humans were truly at home under the light of the moon and stars, we would go in darkness happily, the midnight wo

55、rld as visible to us as it is to the vast number of nocturnal(夜间活动的) species on this planet. Instead, we are diurnal creatures, with eyes adapted to living in the suns light. This is a basic evolutionary fact, even though most of us dont think of ourselves as diurnal beings. Yet its the only way to

56、explain what weve done to the night: Weve engineered it to receive us by filling it with light. The benefits of this kind of engineering e with consequences - called light pollution- whose effects scientists are only now beginning to study. Light pollution is largely the result of bad lighting desig

57、n, which allows artificial light to shine outward and upward into the sky. -designed lighting washes out the darkness of night and pletely changes the light levels-and light rhythms-to which many forms of life, including, ourselves, have adapted. Wherever human light spills into the natural world, s

58、ome aspect of life is affected . In most cities the sky looks as though it has been emptied of stars, leaving behind a vacant haze(霾) that mirrors our fear of the dark. Weve grown so used to this orange haze that the original glory of an unlit night, dark enough for the planet Venus to throw shadow

59、on Earth, is wholly beyond our experience, beyond memory almost. Weve lit up the night as if it were an unoccupied country, when nothing could be further from the truth. Among mammals alone, the number of nocturnal species is astonishing, Light is a powerful biological force, and on many species it

60、acts as a magnet(磁铁). The effect is so powerful that scientists speak of songbirds and seabirds being “captured” by searchlights on land or by the light from gas flares on marine oil platforms. Migrating at night, birds tend to collide with brightly lit tall buildings. Frogs living near brightly lit

61、 highways suffer nocturnal light levels that are as much as a million times brighter than normal, throwing nearly every aspect of their behavior out of joint including most other creatures, we do need darkness. Darkness is as essential to our biological welfare, to our internal clockwork, as light itself. Living in a glare of our own making, we have cut ourselves off from our evolutionary and cultural heritagethe light of the stars and the rhythms of day and night. In a very real sense, light pollutio
