A)閱讀下面短文，根據(jù)所讀內(nèi)容，完成表格，每空一詞。（每空1分）
Are people less happy or happier when they get older? If your answer is “happier”, then you are right, based on a study published five years ago. It found that people generally become happier and experience less worry after age fifty. In fact, it found that by the age of eighty-five, people are happier with their life than they were at eighteen.
The findings came from a Gallup survey of more than three hundred and forty thousand adults in the United States in 2008. At that time, the people were between the ages of eighteen and eighty-five.
Arthur Stone in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Science at Stony Brook University in New York led the study. His team found that levels of stress were the highest among adults between the ages of twenty-two and twenty-five. Stress levels dropped sharply after people reached their fifties.
Levels of happiness were the highest among the kids and those in their early seventies.
The survey also found that men and women have similar emotional patterns as they grow older. However, women at all ages reported more sadness, stress and worry than men did.
So why would happiness increase with age? One theory is that, as people get older, they become more thankful for what they have and have better control of their emotions. They also spend less time thinking about bad experiences.

試題分析：本文講述了美國(guó)紐約的一名大學(xué)教授Arthur Stone和他的研究小隊(duì)進(jìn)行的一項(xiàng)關(guān)于年齡和幸福指數(shù)的一份調(diào)查報(bào)告，并針對(duì)調(diào)查報(bào)告結(jié)果提供了一些理論解讀。
小題1:開(kāi)頭一句Are people less happy or happier when they get older?和最后一段的So why would happiness increase with age?點(diǎn)明了本文的主旨，故答案為Happiness。
小題2:第三段第一句介紹了這次調(diào)查的負(fù)責(zé)人是Arthur Stone，后面的一句是說(shuō)他的團(tuán)隊(duì)發(fā)現(xiàn)的調(diào)查結(jié)果，所以調(diào)查是由Arthur Stone和他的團(tuán)隊(duì)共同完成的；故答案為team
小題3:根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容可知表格右面的四項(xiàng)都是調(diào)查結(jié)果；故答案為findings/results
小題4:根據(jù)第一段第三句It found that people generally become happier and experience less worry after age fifty.可知故答案為less
小題5:根據(jù)第三段His team found that levels of stress were the highest among adults between the ages of twenty-two and twenty-five.可知故答案為most
小題6:第四段Levels of happiness were the highest among the kids and those in their early seventies.說(shuō)明最幸福的人群是孩子和七十歲早期的人群；故答案為seventies
小題7:根據(jù)第五段However, women at all ages reported more sadness, stress and worry than men did.可知，各個(gè)年齡段的女性要比男性具有更大的傷感、壓力和焦慮；故答案為stressed
小題8:最后一段第一句So why would happiness increase with age?表明幸福是隨著年齡的增加而增長(zhǎng)的，故答案為increases
小題9:根據(jù)最后一段中as people get older, they become more thankful for what they have and have better control of their emotions.可知，年長(zhǎng)的人更容易控制自己的情緒；故答案為better
小題10:最后一句They also spend less time thinking about bad experiences.點(diǎn)明年長(zhǎng)的人不愿花費(fèi)時(shí)間去想那些糟糕的經(jīng)歷；故答案為takes
