Nt all awards are as nble as the Nbel Prize，which is wrld-famus fr giving prizes t peple wh made prgress in literature，science，ecnmics and—perhaps mst imprtantly—peace，even thugh mst cuntries have a system fr recgnizing，hnring and rewarding peple wh have dne smething gd in their cuntries，there are nw hundreds f awards and awards ceremnies fr all kinds f things.
The Oscars are prbably the mst famus，a time fr the film industry t tell itself hw gd it is.The awards are nt nly fr films—nw there are als Grammies，Brits，the Mercury Prize and the MTV and Q awards fr music.In Britain，a writer wh wins the Bker prize，can expect t see their difficult，literary nvel hit the bestseller lists and cmpete with The Da Vinci Cde fr ppularity.The Turner Prize is an award fr a British cntemprary artist — each year it causes cntrversy by apparently giving lts f mney t artists wh d things like displaying their beds，putting animals in glass cases r—this year—building a garden shed.
Awards dn't nly exist fr the arts.There are nw awards fr Sprts Persnality f the Year，fr Eurpean Ftballer f the Year and Wrld Ftballer f the Year.This seems very strange — smetimes awards can be gd t give recgnitin t peple wh deserve it，r t help peple wh are n tight budget carry n their wrk withut wrrying abut finances，but prfessinal sccer players these days are nt shy f fund!
Why have all these awards and ceremnies appeared recently? Shakespeare never wn a prize，nr did Lenard Da Vinci.
Mst awards ceremnies are nw spnsred by big rganizatins r cmpanies.This means that nt nly the persn wh wins the award benefits frm it — but als the spnsrs.The MTV awards，fr example，are great fr publicizing nt nly music，but als MTV itself!
On the surface，it seems t be a “win-win” situatin，with everyne being happy，but let me ask yu a questin — hw far d yu think that publicity and marketing are winning here，and hw much genuine recgnitin f achievement is taking place?

A．Dn't need t carry n their wrk.
B．Aren't as famus as ther peple.
C．Aren't as imprtant as ther peple.

A．The win-win situatin satisfies all peple invlved.
B．Mst awards tday g t peple wh dn't really need them.
C．Awards shuld be given t peple with financial prblems.
D．Organizatins that give awards take advantage f awards ceremnies.
D [考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段“This means that nt nly the persn wh wins the award benefits frm it...”可知，那些頒發(fā)獎項(xiàng)的組織或贊助者也同時從中獲利。]
4．In the passage，the writer is mainly cncerned .
A．if awards g t peple wh really deserve them
B．if Nbel Prize and ther awards are still as nble as befre
C．that awards and ceremnies publicize the winners t much

B
(2018·河北省“五個一名校聯(lián)盟”模擬)Imagine this scene：it's blwing utside，and yu snuggle (蜷伏)up n the sfa under a warm quilt，chatting and recalling with yur clsest friends.
That cntent，csy feeling，has a name in Danish — hygge.And，as Denmark recently wn the title f “the happiest cuntry in the wrld”，the cncept f hygge is knwn t mre and mre peple interested in finding ways t understand this cncept.
Hygge — riginally frm a Nrwegian wrd meaning well-being — desn't have an exact equivalent (對應(yīng)物)in English.It's ften translated as cziness，r as blgger Anna West tld the BBC，“cziness f the sul”．But，prfessr Maren Spark explains，“Hygge was never meant t be translated.It was meant t be felt.”
Basically，hygge invlves creating a warm，csy atmsphere and enjying it with yur lved nes.Danish winters are lng and dark，s achieving hygge is particularly relevant during this seasn.A typical hygge activity during winter culd be enjying delicius hmemade fd and light-hearted cnversatin with friends — preferably in the warm glw f candlelight，r maybe sipping a glass f wine in the ht tub after a day spent skiing.
Hwever，hygge isn't nly limited t the cld winter mnths —it can als describe that warm，fuzzy feeling yu get after a walk thrugh a frest with friends n a summer's day r a family barbecue in the park.Hygge is meant t be shared.
【語篇解讀】 每年，丹麥人都會經(jīng)歷漫長而陰沉的冬日，可是丹麥卻被認(rèn)為是世界上最幸福的國家。文章向我們介紹了丹麥人是如何通過創(chuàng)造舒適的環(huán)境來提高幸福指數(shù)的。
5．The authr asks the readers t imagine the scene in the first paragraph t .

D．remind the readers f their past memries
B [考查推理判斷。由文章第一段和第二段可知，作者讓讀者想象這個情景是為了引出文章所要介紹的話題“hygge”。]
6．What d the underlined sentences by Maren Spark mean?
A．The translatin f the wrd “hygge” is nt gd enugh.
B．Only Danish speakers knw what “hygge” means.
C．“Hygge” is easy t translate but hard t feel.
D．We can get the true meaning f “hygge” by feeling it.
D [考查句意理解。根據(jù)第三段可知，“hygge”這個詞常被解釋為“cziness”，下文由“But”引出“prfessr Maren Spark”的觀點(diǎn)“‘hygge’不應(yīng)該被翻譯，而應(yīng)用來感受”。由此可知，我們只有通過感受才能理解“hygge”的真正內(nèi)涵。]
7．Which f the fllwing can be best described as a“ hygge” activity?
A．Skiing in the cld winter mnths.
B．Living thrugh lng dark winters.
C．Taking afternn tea with friends.
D．Walking alne in the frest.
C [考查推理判斷。由倒數(shù)第二段的第一句可知，“hygge”與創(chuàng)造一個溫暖舒適的氛圍并與你愛的人一起分享有關(guān)。C項(xiàng)中的“Taking afternn tea”符合“creating a warm，csy atmsphere”，“friends”對應(yīng)“yur lved nes”。故選C項(xiàng)。]
8．The authr writes this passage t .
A．explain B．persuade
C．cmment D．a(chǎn)dvertise
A [考查寫作目的。縱觀全文可以看出，文章采用情景介紹、概念介紹、舉例說明的方式向我們介紹了一種創(chuàng)造舒適的環(huán)境來提高幸福指數(shù)的生活方式：hygge。故選A項(xiàng)。]

Treat the blues with a sense f humr，which is clsely tied t laughter.Laughter is infectius.Have yu ever heard a big laugh f a yung child and been able t keep yurself frm smiling? When laughter is shared between peple，it makes them clser t each ther and increases their happiness.Smiling is the beginning f laughter and a smile is als just as infectius as laughter is.Yu can experience smething by smiling at everyne arund yu，and yu will feel happier just by sharing a smile，even with a stranger.
Play is an imprtant part f making sure that we stay healthy.We are ften encuraged t make sure ur children play，and are tld f the benefits f being ut playing.Hwever，what we ften frget is that it is just as imprtant fr ld peple t make play be part f their life as it's fr children.Physical play is imprtant fr the ld and it certainly helps prevent illness.While the studies are still in the early stages，the studies that have been dne have shwn that physical play certainly plays a part in preventing cgnitive(認(rèn)知的)falling.
