19、 In the third week, the couples must find an apartment they can afford.In the fifth week, the couples “have a baby” and then struggle to cover the costs of baby clothes and furniture.

25、A newspaper report. D. A project handbook.C The spread of Western eating habits around the world is bad for human health and for the environment. Those findings come from a new report in the journal Nature. David Tilman is a professor at the University of Minnesota. In the study, he examined informa

26、tion from 100 nations to show what people ate and how diet affected health. Mr. Tilman noted a movement beginning in the 1960s. He found that as nations industrialized(工业化), population increased and earnings rose. More people began to adopt what has been called the Western diet. The Western diet is

27、high in sugar, fat, oil and meat. By eating these foods, people began to get fatter and sicker. “The food, let us say, in the 15 richest nations of the world, right now contains about 400 or 500 extra calories(热量) a day that are eaten beyond what people need, and that leads people to gain weight.” D

Heart disease is a major cause of death in the Western nations. Unfortunately when people become industr

30、se areas will be needed to meet the increasing demand for food. Mr. Tilman calls the link between diet, the environment and human health, “a dilemma”, a situation where it is very difficult to decide what to do.

32、cers D. heart disease31. What can we infer from Paragraph 5?A. There will be fewer and fewer forests.B. People wont care about the environment.C. The worlds population will grow faster than ever.D. Raising cattle will be the most moneymaking business.32. What is the purpose of the author in writing

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 hap

35、pier 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. 33 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

36、dont have much money to spare, they tend to stick to material goods. 34 But they actually provide both more happiness and more lasting value. 2. 35 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

37、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. 36 For example, that big house in the suburbs may seem like a good idea, but a 2014 study by researchers from University of Zurich in Swi

38、tzerland found that people with longer time on the way reported lower life satisfaction, all other things being equal.4. Try giving it away.
