Unit 1 单元话题
Everyone wants to be happy, but what is the real secret of happiness Scientists and psychologists have
studied this question for many years. Here are some of their findings.
Help Others
One of the easiest ways to feel happy is to help others. When you do something nice for someone, your
brain produces a chemical called dopamine, which makes you feel good. Even small acts of kindness, like helping
a classmate with homework or smiling at a stranger, can bring you happiness.
Be Grateful
Another way to be happy is to appreciate what you have. You can write down three things you are thankful
for every day, such as a sunny day, a good meal, or time with friends. Studies show that grateful people are
usually happier.
Spend Time with Friends and Family
People who have strong relationships with family and friends are often happier than those who don’t.
Talking, laughing, and sharing your feelings with them can make you feel loved and supported.
Enjoy the Little Things
Happiness doesn’t always come from big achievements. Sometimes, it’s the small things that matter most.
Listening to your favorite song, playing with a pet, or enjoying a warm cup of tea can all bring joy to your life.
Stay Active
Exercise is not just good for your body—it’s also great for your mood. When you play sports or take a walk,
your body releases endorphins, which help reduce stress and make you feel happier.
1．What does dopamine do when you help others
A．It makes you feel tired. B．It makes you feel good.
C．It makes you feel sad. D．It makes you feel angry.
2．What does the passage say about happiness and small things
A．Only big achievements can bring happiness. B．Small things don’t matter for happiness.
C．Enjoying small moments can bring joy. D．People should only focus on important things.
3．Which of the following activities can release endorphins to make you feel happier
A．Listening to music. B．Helping a classmate with homework.
C．Taking a walk. D．Writing down thankful things.
【答案】1．B 2．C 3．C
【导语】本文主要讲了一些让人快乐的方法。
1．细节理解题。根据“When you do something nice for someone, your brain produces a chemical called
dopamine, which makes you feel good.”可知，多巴胺会让人感觉良好。故选 B。
2．细节理解题。根据“Sometimes, it’s the small things that matter most. Listening to your favorite song, playing
with a pet, or enjoying a warm cup of tea can all bring joy to your life.”可知，小事情也能带来快乐。故选 C。
3．细节理解题。根据“When you play sports or take a walk, your body releases endorphins”可知，散步会释放
内啡肽。故选 C。
Does happiness matter People have different opinions. Some think there are more important things to
worry about, while others believe happiness is what everyone wants in life. To understand this, we first need to
understand what happiness really means.
Happiness is about our feelings, but it’s more than just a short moment of smiles or laughter. Instead,
happiness is how we feel about our lives overall. Every day, we feel many different emotions. For example,
feelings like fear and anger help protect us from danger, while happy feelings like joy and hope help us make
friends and solve problems. Being happy doesn’t mean we should never feel sad or angry. Everyone has difficult
times, and it’s normal (正常的) to have these feelings. True happiness means enjoying good times while also
learning to deal with hard times.
Research shows happiness plays an important role in success. Some might think happy people are less
hardworking, but research shows the opposite is true. They actually perform (表现) better in their jobs, maintain
better health, and build stronger relationships. In one study at Warwick University, scientists put participants (参
与者) into two groups. The first group watched a happy, funny video while the second group watched a normal
video. After watching, both groups did the same office task. The results showed that the first group did their tasks
11% better than the second one.
Other researchers have found similar results. For example, business researchers studied companies for
many years and found that companies with happier workers always did better in the market. Also, when scientists
followed young people for many years, they saw that those who were happier in childhood usually were more
successful when they grew up than those who were less happy. One of the reasons is that happiness can wake up
the control center in children’s brains, to help weigh options more clearly, like choosing “study first, play later”
instead of wasting time. In other words, happiness may lead to success, not just come from it.
Of course, happiness doesn’t solve all problems. Happy people still have difficulties, and not all happy
people are successful. But happiness does make life better in many ways. In the end, happiness is more than just a
feeling. It helps us succeed, makes society stronger, and gives life its real meaning.
1．What is the main idea of Paragraph 2
A．Happiness is not only a moment of joy. B．What the true meaning of happiness is.
C．It is natural to have different feelings. D．Happiness is about people’s feelings.
2．What does the expression “the opposite is true” in Paragraph 3 mean
A．Happiness is good for relationships. B．Hard work makes people successful.
C．Happy people could do better work. D．Success leads to better health.
3．Which of the following would the writer most probably agree with
A．Happy workers did 11% more work than less happy ones.
B．A happy childhood can ensure a happier life in adulthood.
C．Happiness makes people overcome the bad feelings.
D．Happiness can help people make better decisions.

Travelling is fun! But did you know it can also harm our Earth Every year, over1 billion people travel to other
countries. This brings money to cities and helps local economies, but it also causes big problems for our planet.
Why Travel Can Be Harmful
Most pollution from tourism comes from planes, cars, and buses. These vehicles burn fuel and make harmful
gases like CO2. For example, a round-trip flight (a flight going and coming back) from New York to London
makes 1 ton of CO2 for each person. That’s a lot! In some countries, one person might only make that much CO2
in a whole year. Even walking tours can be a problem. If too many people walk on the same paths, they can break
or kill small plants.
Green Travel Solutions
Some places are trying to make travel safer for the Earth. For example, Bhutan, a small country in Asia, limits (限

Unit 1 单元话题
Everyone wants to be happy, but what is the real secret of happiness Scientists and psychologists have
studied this question for many years. Here are some of their findings.
Help Others
One of the easiest ways to feel happy is to help others. When you do something nice for someone, your
brain produces a chemical called dopamine, which makes you feel good. Even small acts of kindness, like helping
a classmate with homework or smiling at a stranger, can bring you happiness.
Be Grateful
Another way to be happy is to appreciate what you have. You can write down three things you are thankful
for every day, such as a sunny day, a good meal, or time with friends. Studies show that grateful people are
usually happier.
Spend Time with Friends and Family
People who have strong relationships with family and friends are often happier than those who don’t.
Talking, laughing, and sharing your feelings with them can make you feel loved and supported.
Enjoy the Little Things
Happiness doesn’t always come from big achievements. Sometimes, it’s the small things that matter most.
Listening to your favorite song, playing with a pet, or enjoying a warm cup of tea can all bring joy to your life.
Stay Active
Exercise is not just good for your body—it’s also great for your mood. When you play sports or take a walk,
your body releases endorphins, which help reduce stress and make you feel happier.
1．What does dopamine do when you help others
A．It makes you feel tired. B．It makes you feel good.
C．It makes you feel sad. D．It makes you feel angry.
2．What does the passage say about happiness and small things
A．Only big achievements can bring happiness. B．Small things don’t matter for happiness.
C．Enjoying small moments can bring joy. D．People should only focus on important things.
3．Which of the following activities can release endorphins to make you feel happier
A．Listening to music. B．Helping a classmate with homework.
C．Taking a walk. D．Writing down thankful things.
Does happiness matter People have different opinions. Some think there are more important things to
worry about, while others believe happiness is what everyone wants in life. To understand this, we first need to
understand what happiness really means.
Happiness is about our feelings, but it’s more than just a short moment of smiles or laughter. Instead,
happiness is how we feel about our lives overall. Every day, we feel many different emotions. For example,
feelings like fear and anger help protect us from danger, while happy feelings like joy and hope help us make
friends and solve problems. Being happy doesn’t mean we should never feel sad or angry. Everyone has difficult
times, and it’s normal (正常的) to have these feelings. True happiness means enjoying good times while also
learning to deal with hard times.
Research shows happiness plays an important role in success. Some might think happy people are less
hardworking, but research shows the opposite is true. They actually perform (表现) better in their jobs, maintain
better health, and build stronger relationships. In one study at Warwick University, scientists put participants (参
与者) into two groups. The first group watched a happy, funny video while the second group watched a normal
video. After watching, both groups did the same office task. The results showed that the first group did their tasks
11% better than the second one.
Other researchers have found similar results. For example, business researchers studied companies for
many years and found that companies with happier workers always did better in the market. Also, when scientists
followed young people for many years, they saw that those who were happier in childhood usually were more
successful when they grew up than those who were less happy. One of the reasons is that happiness can wake up
the control center in children’s brains, to help weigh options more clearly, like choosing “study first, play later”
instead of wasting time. In other words, happiness may lead to success, not just come from it.
Of course, happiness doesn’t solve all problems. Happy people still have difficulties, and not all happy
people are successful. But happiness does make life better in many ways. In the end, happiness is more than just a
feeling. It helps us succeed, makes society stronger, and gives life its real meaning.
1．What is the main idea of Paragraph 2
A．Happiness is not only a moment of joy. B．What the true meaning of happiness is.
C．It is natural to have different feelings. D．Happiness is about people’s feelings.
2．What does the expression “the opposite is true” in Paragraph 3 mean
A．Happiness is good for relationships. B．Hard work makes people successful.
C．Happy people could do better work. D．Success leads to better health.
3．Which of the following would the writer most probably agree with
A．Happy workers did 11% more work than less happy ones.
B．A happy childhood can ensure a happier life in adulthood.
C．Happiness makes people overcome the bad feelings.
D．Happiness can help people make better decisions.
4．What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage
A．To discuss different people’s ideas about happiness.
B．To compare happy people with others in research.
C．To tell us that success is the key to happiness.
D．To show that happiness is important for success.

Travelling is fun! But did you know it can also harm our Earth Every year, over1 billion people travel to other
countries. This brings money to cities and helps local economies, but it also causes big problems for our planet.
Why Travel Can Be Harmful
Most pollution from tourism comes from planes, cars, and buses. These vehicles burn fuel and make harmful
gases like CO2. For example, a round-trip flight (a flight going and coming back) from New York to London
makes 1 ton of CO2 for each person. That’s a lot! In some countries, one person might only make that much CO2
in a whole year. Even walking tours can be a problem. If too many people walk on the same paths, they can break
or kill small plants.
Green Travel Solutions
Some places are trying to make travel safer for the Earth. For example, Bhutan, a small country in Asia, limits (限
制) how many tourists can visit each year. In this way, the environment doesn’t get too crowded or damaged.
Tourists there also pay a daily fee to help protect the forests. Some airlines let passengers pay extra fee to plant
trees. Experts say that for short trips, taking trains is better than planes. Trains use less energy and make less
pollution.
Tips for Smart Travelers
Visit during quiet times: Go to popular places when there are fewer tourists. This helps reduce crowding and the
stress on local environment.
Be kind to nature: Don’t pick flowers or leave trash. Always put your garbage in bins, even in the countryside.
Support local people: Buy gifts from small, local shops. Handmade products help them make a living and keep
their traditions alive.
1．If a person takes a flight from New York to London, how much CO2 does he/ she make

2．What may a smart traveler do
①Visit popular places during quiet times.
②Buy imported gifts from big shops.
③Put trash in bins even in the countryside.
④Support local people by making handmade products.

Holidays with friends can be great fun and a good way of getting to know each other better. Planning the
trip well will help you have a good time. Also, it will help you to save money if you start planning earlier. Here
are some suggestions.
Going abroad (到国外) will cost more but be a more exciting experience (经历). Don’t go abroad if this is
the first trip you help to plan the trip. Going to a different place in your own country can also be fun and will be
cheaper.
Work out how many people you will plan the trip for. Find out how much interest there is for people to go
on the trip, and then invite people who you think will enjoy themselves and who you get on well with.
Everyone will have his or her idea of what he or she wants the trip to be like, so you should have a meeting.
Keep a notebook and write down things to do. If you share ideas with others, you will take a happier trip.
After you decide on your hotel, you’ll know the dates of your stay and you can book transport, such as bus,
train and airplane. Booking transport earlier can save some money, so you’d better book as soon as possible.
