It was an old apartment building, in which many parts are made of wood. Regardless of the warning of firemen, the residents wouldn’t move out because they were poor and had nowhere to go.
One night, the building was on fire. The residents began to run for their lives. When half of the population had got themselves out, the wooden staircases broke down. The remaining residents rushed to the roof of the third floor, which had not been touched by the flames yet, waiting for the firemen to rescue them. Firemen did arrive in a short while.

Many of us recognize that familiar feeling of eagerly tearing open a carefully wrapped gift box, only to find a terrible woolen sweater. But what makes a good gift? The answer is very different, depending on whether you ask the gift giver or receiver.
A study published this month in Current Directions highlights the disconnection between the gifts we actually want and the ones we want to give, and offers some insights that may come in handy this holiday shopping season.
Psychologists have long known that we often struggle to predict other people’s preferences, and according to study co-author Elanor Williams, a marketing professor at Indiana University Bloomington, our ego(自我) may be to blame.
As gift givers, we tend to focus on the gift exchange itself, eagerly anticipating(期待)the warm feeling we get when we see the other person’s face light up with joy on opening our present. However, gift receivers focus more on the gift itself: Is it useful? Is it wanted?
Williams says the best strategy may be to simply ask people what they want. “There’s a misconception that the best-received gifts are the ones that are unexpected, but that’s just not true,” he explains. “The best-received gifts are the ones that best match what the receiver actually desires.”
Research on gift giving may feel a little dull, but as Williams points out, gift giving is something we do all the time. He adds that it plays an important social role—giving gifts can help us cater for (迎合) others and strength social bonds. There is also a more practical reason to up our gift-giving game—every holiday season, we shell out(支付) hundreds of billions of dollars on presents. “If we’re dong that,” he says, “We might as well get it right.”
1.What do we know about Current Directions?
A. It may be a magazine about psychological science.
B. It may be an advertisement about holiday shopping.
C. It may be a commercial report about people’s preferences.
D. It may be a wall newspaper in a shopping community.
2.In which case can the gift be regarded as the best-received one?
A. My friend gave me a ticket for a film but I was too busy to see it.
B. I bought a favorite book but a friend sent me another copy of it.
C. My aunt sent me a sweater in summer because it was cheap.
D. My uncle sent me a new mobile phone which I need badly.
3.What does the passage mainly intend to tell us?
A. Different feelings between gift gives and receivers.
B. How and why we should choose well-received gifts.
C. What makes a good gift in different holiday seasons.
D. Best-received gifts are the ones that are unexpected.

The next time your friends roll their eyes when you’re snapping a selfie (自拍照) or taking a photo of your dessert, tell them that photographing everyday things can actually make people happier.
In a study of more than 2,000 people, researchers found that people who took photos of their experiences, whether they were walking through a museum or going on a city bus tour, had a better time overall compared with those who didn’t.
During each of the study’s nine experiments, people were asked to either take photos or give up photography during an everyday activity, such as eating a meal. In nearly every experiment, the group that took photos showed higher levels of enjoyment.
The finding might not sound terribly surprising. After all, Facebook members upload about 2 billion photos daily, and Instagram users upload about 80 million photos every day. But some people argue that taking photographs can distract (分散注意力) themselves from enjoying an experience while it’s happening.
The new research shows that it isn’t the case and that photography does increase a person’s enjoyment, because it increases his or her engagement in the activity. For example, in one experiment, people toured a museum while wearing glasses that tracked their eye movements. The group that took photos spent more time looking at the artifacts than those who didn’t.
However, photos are sometimes a drag. For instance, if the camera is difficult to carry, it might not bring enjoyment to a person. And in some cases, photography can make situations unpleasant. For example, when people in the study took a virtual safari (游獵) and watched some lions attacking a water buffalo, the people who took photos of the bloody event were reported to have a lower enjoyment of the activity than those who didn’t, the researchers said.
1.Why does taking photos increase enjoyment?
A. People can share their photos on Facebook. B. People have more time to look at the objects to be photographed.
C. Some photos may end up as valuable artifacts. D. Photography gets people more involved in the activity.
2.What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. Photography sometimes can be dangerous.
B. Photography requires more courage to do.
C. Photography is an unpleasant process.
D. Photography isn’t fun all the time.
3.Which of the following is closest to the main idea of the text?
A. Photography helps you appreciate people around you.
B. Snapping a selfie is a symbol of self-confidence.
C. Taking photos doesn’t ruin your experience.
D. The photo-taking process is a mental choice.
