Did you ever cross your fingers when making a wish? Most people who do these things never think about why th

16、ey do them. They just do them. But there is a reason. Both acts are meant to insure good luck. They are little superstitions that have come down to us from an earlier time, when everybody believed in good and evil spirits. And even in our modern world, when men are traveling to the moon, we are stil

17、l practicing some of these ancient habits in our daily lives. In ancient times, men believed that the soul lived in the head. Every time someone sneezed, he was risking the danger of dislodging that soul and blowing it out the nose into the outside world. So, as insurance against a lost soul, people

18、 would say “God bless you“ to be sure that God would catch the soul and return it to its rightful owner. Some people today toss a bit of salt over their left shoulder if they happen to spill any at the dinner table. This practice once had a serious purpose. In an earlier time, men believed that evil

19、 spirits always stood on their left side and good spirits on the right. So any time they spilled some of the precious stuff, they would throw a bit of it over their left shoulder to keep away the evil spirits. Since the evil spirits stood on the left, and the good spirits on the right, the right sid

20、e was considered the lucky side of the body. Putting your best foot forward meant starting out on the lucky side, with your right foot first.

24、hours a day. They are found in larger cities and usually run between the suburbs and the downtown areas. Maps and schedules are available from the ticket office. If you take the subway often, you can save money by purchasing a monthly pass (月票). City-operated buses run on various routes(线路) and are

25、designed to he at certain places at certain time. Maps and schedules may be posted at certain stops, or they may be available at local banks, libraries, the student union, or from the bus drivers. Buses run mainly during the day. Fare is paid by exact change in coins, or by monthly passes. Taxis are

31、bidden. With cloning, infertile couples could have children. Current treatments for infertility, in terms of percentages (百分比), are not very successful. Couples go through physically and emotionally painful procedures for a small chance of having children. Many couples run out of time and money with

32、out successfully having children. Human cloning could make it possible for many more infertile couples to have children than ever before.

39、d. According to recent polls (民意测试), sixty to seventy percent of Americans consider themselves to be moderately happy and one in twenty persons feel very unhappy. Psychologists have been studying the factors that contribute to happiness. It is not predictable nor is a person in an apparently ideal s

40、ituation necessarily happy. The ideal situation may have little to do with his actual feelings. A good education and income are usually considered necessary for happiness. Though both may contribute, they are only chief factors if the person is seriously undereducated or actually suffering from lack

41、 of physical needs. The rich are not likely to be happier than the middle-income group or even those with very low incomes.

Love has a higher correlation with happiness than any other factor. It should be noted that people quickly get used to what they have,

44、and they are happiest when they feel they are increasing their level no matter where it stands at a given time. Children whose parents were happily married have happier childhoods yet they are not necessarily happier adults when they grow up. The best formula for happiness is to be able to develop t

45、he ability to tolerate frustration, to have a personal involvement and commitment, and to develop self-confidence and self-esteem.（分数：15.00）(1).It can be inferred from the passage that _.（分数：3.00）A.happiness is predictableB.a person in an apparently ideal situation must be happyC.happiness is not ne
