任务三 阅读理解B(10分)
In October，someone in South Carolina won $1.5 billion.The nearly impossible odds (概率) of winning were 1 in 302.5 million!
Would this money actually make someone happy The experiences of several lottery (抽奖) winners show that it probably wouldn’t.For example，William Post had only $2.46 in the bank when he won $16.2 million in a New York lottery in 1998.Within 3 months，he was poor again because of careless spending.He wasn’t as happy as he felt before winning the prize.
Here is another example.Callie Rogers，a British teenager from a common family，won $3 million in 2003.She bought her family and friends lavish gifts and bought herself expensive clothes.After six years，Callie lost all her money and realized that money didn’t make her happy.In fact，she became worried that people were friendly with her only to get her money.
Lottery winners are not the only ones who can end up unhappy.People who get big money for some other reasons，e.g.receiving money from others，are also at risk.They may not know how to deal with money.They waste money on things they don’t need.
Researchers found that people are happy when they are able to pay for their basic needs，such as food，clothes，a safe place to live，and health care.People are also happy when they give reasonable (合理的) amounts of money to charities.
People can hope and wish to suddenly come into lots of money to improve their lives，but perhaps there are better ways to find happiness.
(　　)16.How does the writer support his opinion in Paragraph 2
A.By giving an example. B.By asking a question.
C.By telling the differences. D.By doing research.
(　　)17.What did William and Callie have in common according to the passage
A.They came from the same country.
B.They won the lotteries in the same year.
C.They were poor before winning the lotteries.
D.They spent their money quickly and carelessly.
(　　)18.What does the underlined word “lavish” in Paragraph 3 mean
A.Expensive. B.Funny. C.Surprising. D.Lucky.
(　　)19.Which of the following can be inferred from the passage
A.Big money brings lasting happiness.
B.People’s lives depend on lottery prizes.
C.Reasonable spending makes people happy.
D.The basic needs of people are easily satisfied.
(　　)20.What’s the writer’s purpose of writing the text

C.To encourage readers to make big money.
D.To share some success stories about finding happiness.
