43、as wings that unfold for flyinga process the company says takes one minuteand fold back up for driving. A runway is still required to take off and land. The Transition is being marketed more as a plane that drives than a car that flies, although it is both. The company has been working with FAA to m

44、eet aircraft regulations, and with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to meet vehicle safety regulations. The company is aiming to sell the Transition to private pilots as a more convenient and cheaper way to fly. They say it saves you the trouble of trying to find another mode of tr

45、ansportation to get to and from airports: You drive the car to the airport and then youre good to go. When you land, you fold up the wings and hit the road.

46、to fly primarily under 10,000 feet. It has a maximum takeoff weight of 1,430 pounds, including fuel and passengers. Terrafugia says the Transition reduces the potential for an accident by allowing pilots to drive under bad weather instead of flying into marginal(临界)conditions. The Transitions price

47、tag: $194,000. But there may be additional charges for options like a radio, transponder or GPS. Another option is a fullplane parachute. “If you get into a very awful situation, it is the necessary safety option，” Gersh said.So far, the company has more than 70 orders with deposits. “Were working v

52、 make you happier?Researchers from the Netherlands set out to measure the effect that vacations have on overall happiness and how long it lasts. They studied happiness levels among 1,530 Dutch adults, 974 of whom took a vacation during the 32-week study period. The study showed that the largest lift

53、 in happiness comes from the simple act of planning a vacation. In the study, the effect of vacation anticipation lifted happiness for eight weeks.After the vacation, happiness quickly dropped back to baseline levels for most people. How much stress or relaxation a traveler experienced on the trip a

54、ppeared to influence post-vacation happiness. There was no post-trip happiness benefit for travelers who said the vacation was “neutral” or stressful.”Surprisingly, even those travelers who described the trip as “relaxing” showed no additional jump in happiness after the trip. “They were no happier

55、than people who had not been on holiday,” said the lead author, Jeroen Nawijn, tourism research lecturer at Breda University. The only vacationers who experienced an increase in happiness after the trip were those who reported feeling “very relaxed” on their vacation. Among those people, the vacatio

56、n happiness effect lasted for just two weeks after the trip before returning to baseline levels.One reason vacations dont increase happiness after the trip may have to do with the stress of returning to work. And for some travelers, the holiday itself was stressful. “In comments from people, the thi

57、ng they mentioned most referred to disagreements with a travel partner or being ill,” Mr. Nawijn said.The study didnt find any relationship between the length of the vacation and overall happiness. Since most of the happiness boost comes from planning and expecting a vacation, the study suggests tha

58、t people may get more out of several small trips a year than one big vacation, Mr. Nawijn said.71. Whats the best title for this passage? A. Post-vacation happiness B. Pre-vacation planning C.

59、 is, the happier the travelers will be. B. The better you get your vacation planned, the more happiness you will get. C. It will make you happier if you divide a big vacation into small ones. D. None of the travelers were happier than those who had not been on holiday,73. Which of the statements is

60、not mentioned in the passage? A. People never have additional jump in happiness after the trip. B. For most people, happiness quickly dropped back to baseline levels after the vacation. C. The largest lift in happiness comes from the simple act of planning a vacation. D. Vacations are a chance to ge

A. about one seconds B. about two thirds C. more than one third D. less than three fifth 第四部分：写作(共两节；满分35分) 第一节：阅读表达(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读下面短文，并根据短文后的要求答题，然后将答案填入相应的位置上。(请注意答题后的词数要求)。1Losing weight is hard enough.

63、Keeping it off is even harder. Now a new study by researchers at Penn State suggests that the techniques that work for losing weight arent necessarily the same as those that help keep you slim.2First the researchers surveyed over 1,100 people who had achieved significant weight loss and maintained(维

64、持) it. The researchers identified 36 weight-loss and weight-maintenance practices that at least10% of the group used.3Then the researchers conducted a national telephone survey of overweight people who had tried to lose weight and keep it off with different success: about 11% reported successfully l

65、osing weight, and 21% were able to maintain that loss for at least a year.4The survey found people who did so by participating in weight loss programs, cutting back on sugar, eating healthy snacks, not skipping meals and participating in different types of exercise.5Still, say many nutrition and obe

66、sity experts. The basic principles of weight loss and maintenance are the same; you have to eat a healthy diet and increase your exercise. People who lose weight and keep it off tend to eat significantly healthier foods and do a lot more exercise than the average American.6But what may maintain betw

67、een weight-loss and maintenance is a persons attitude; rather than focusing on actively losing weight in the short term. People have to start focusing on long-term, permanent lifestyle changes and behaviors, if they want to maintain the weight thats been lost. The key to success, experts agree, is m

68、otivation, not necessarily the particulars of your weight-loss program.76. What is the main idea of the text? (no more than 8 words) 77.If people want to keep the weight lost, what should they do?. (no more than 14 words) 78. Fill in the blank in Paragraph 4 with proper words. (no more than 5 words)
