They asked their 600 volunteers first to rate their general happiness，report their annual income and detail their monthly spending including bills, gifts for themselves, gifts for others and donations to charity.“No matter how much income each person made，those who spent money on others reported

26、斷另一半的志愿者可以根據(jù)自己的喜好來花這筆錢。答案：DBSocieties all over the world name places in similar ways.

27、as two names：one is named by the people and the other by the government. As in many areas, old habits die_hard,_and the place continues to be called by its unofficial name long after the meaning is lost.Many roads and places in Singapore (新加坡) are named in order that the pioneers will be remembered

28、by future generations. Thus we have names such as Stamford Road and Raffles Place. This is in keeping with traditions in many countriesin both the West and the East.Another way of naming places is naming them after other places. Perhaps they were named to promote friendships between the two places o

29、r it could be that the people who used to live there were originally from the places that the roads were named after.

30、oyal Air Force personnel.Some places were named after the activities that used to go on at those places. Bras Basah Road is an interesting example. “Bras Basah” means “wet rice” in Malay (馬來語). Now why would anyone want to name a road “Wet Rice Road”？ The reason is simple. During the pioneering days

31、，wet rice was laid out to dry along this road.A few roads in Singapore are named by their shapes. There is “Circular Road” for one.

32、es a crescent and comes back to join the main road again.語篇解讀：世界各地地名的命名方式都很相似。本文介紹了地名的四種命名方法。31We learn from Paragraph 1 that _.Athe government is usually the first to name a placeBmany places tend to have more than one nameCa ceremony will be held when a place is namedDpeople prefer the place names

43、dds，Id always come out a winner if I wanted something badly enough to work for it.語篇解讀：世間無難事，只怕有心人。十三歲，對作者來說，是富有挑戰(zhàn)的一年，作者通過自己的努力用自己相貌丑陋的賽馬Cowboy最終打敗對手，同時也戰(zhàn)勝了自己。36The underlined expression “shown the gate” in Paragraph 4 most probably means“_”Atold how to enter the arenaBshown how to make the horse be
