People on the bus; People in a crowd；
People passing， passing， People saying nothing,
In back and front of us. People talking loud。

People on the subway 25 People laughing, smiling，
10 Underneath the ground. Grumpy people too；
People riding taxis People who just hurry
Round and round and round. And never look at you！

Many people might think that if they had more money， then they would be happier in life. For
example， people might look at what others have, like expensive clothes or nice cars， and wish they could have the same. But the things that money can buy can not bring happiness to a person for long.
（1)But is that really true？ Studies have found that money can， in fact, make people happier.
（ 2） Instead， it's giving money to others that makes people happy。 （3） It could be buying a present for a friend or a family member. (4) It could be buying a homeless person food to eat. It could be giving money to a person in need。 Just think about the last time you used your own money to do something for someone else. How did you feel？ Whether it is a small or large amount of money, people feel happier when they give。 This is because making someone else happy makes the giver happy, too。
This idea of connecting your happiness to the happiness of others is described as ubuntu in an African language。 There is even a story about a man visiting Africa who asked some kids to race to a nearby tree. The first child to touch the tree would get a sweet treat. Surprisingly， all the children held hands and ran together。 They all touched the tree, at the same time。 The man asked why they had done this。 The children simply said they could only enjoy eating the treat if everyone had one.

19。 The writer says that buying things-
A。 can make people worried B. can make people nervous
C may lead to sadness for long D。 may lead to happiness for a short time
20. Where can we best put “But it's not having money that brings happiness。” in Paragraph 2？
A. (1） B。 （2） C。 (3） D。 (4）
21。Why does the writer quote(引用)a story in Paragraph 3？
A。 To explain Africans like sweets。 B。 To show examples are not enough.
C。 To make the writer's opinion clearer. D. To express happiness is from children.
22. What does the writer try to tell us?
A. Buying new things can make people happy。
B。 The key to happiness is making others happy.
C. If you want to be happy， you can visit Africa。
D. People who have a lot of money might not be happy。

The year was 1859。 America and England had already fought two wars。 Now, they were at peace。
But one day a pig got hungry 。And it nearly caused another war between the two countries。

The pig was owned by a British man who lived on a small island。 The island was just off the western part of North America。 Both England and the US said the island was theirs. Across the island from the British man lived some American farmers. Everyone on the island got along peacefully。 But the peace ended the day the British man’s pig decided to eat some of an American farmer’s potatoes.
One of the American farmers shot and killed the pig。 Then the pig's owner wanted$100 from the
man who shot the animal。 That was a lot of money， so the farmer refused to pay it。 The British and
Americans began to argue, and the situation got worse。 The farmers asked the governor over the island at that time for help. He sent a group of soldiers to protect the farmers. The British answered by sending 2，000 soldiers. The British were on one side of the island， and the Americans were on the other。 The problem that began with the pig was about to become a shooting war.
When news of the problem reached Washington and London， both leaders were surprised. Neither country wanted another war. They sent some men to try to fix the problem. After a discussion， it was decided that each country would keep a small group of soldiers on the island。 They would stay there until the two countries could decide who owned the island. Then the others would have to leave.
Twelve years went by. Neither side wanted to give up the island, but they knew they had to do
something. They asked the leader of Germany to help decide。 After nearly a year of discussion, a
decision was made。 America would get the island。 Finally， the Pig War was over and only one shot was fired. That was the shot that killed the pig！

23。What caused the problem on the island according to the passage?
A. An American shot a British man.
B.A group of soldiers came to the island.
C。 British men destroyed an American’s farmland。
D.A British man's pig ate some potatoes of an American farmer's.
24.The underlined word “they" in Paragraph 4 refers to_
A。 the farmers B。 the leaders C。 the soldiers D. the Germans
25。According to the passage， the real purpose of the two countries was
A. to own an island B. to kill a pig C。 to get more money D. to start a war
26.Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?

Big data（数据)is a lot of sets of information that are put together so they can be used by a computer program。 The computer program looks for different kinds of answers or patterns in the data. Big data can have different kinds of information from many sources, such as information that comes from schools， social media sites， companies, and governments。 One set of data can have people’s names and addresses。 Another set can have what they like， where they go to school， and how much time they spend on the computer.
Big data can be used in many ways。 The government uses it to understand how many people travel on buses or trains。 This information is then used to make bus or train systems better。 Some schools use big data to understand which children may need extra help in class。 The teacher can then give certain students more help or support so those students can succeed in school。 Companies use big data， too。 It helps them understand who buys their products。 For example， one company uses weather data to see when people eat the most ice cream。
Big data can be used for good reasons。 Some hospitals use big data to predict if a baby who is born too early will get sick. The hospital can then take extra steps to take care of that baby so he or she does not get sick。 Big data can also be used for bad reasons。 It can be used to predict which kinds of people are likely to break the law or hurt others， even if they have not done anything wrong。
How can big data be used for good and bad things？ It is because the computer programs used to look at big data and understand it are written by people。 People think a certain way. Because they think a certain way， they build a model of those ideas. These ideas are then used to look at the data。 Sometimes， these ideas are helpful for people or businesses。 Other times， bad ideas can cause problems for certain groups of people.

A。 what big data is and how it is used
B。 what schools and hospitals people like

D. how big data is controlled by governments and companies

A. help children in need
B 。know when people will visit the hospital
C. find out who rides the bus or train

A. big data can be used for good reasons
B。 we can use big data in a number of ways
C。 big data can be used for both good and bad reasons
D。 we can use big data to prevent babies from getting sick
30。The overall tone（总基调)of this reading is_
A.sad and personal B。 personal and scientific
