任务二 阅读理解A(10分)
[2026广西南宁期中]Money can make you happy for a long time, only if you spend it in a clever way. Buying a new car may make you happy. However, you will forget the feeling when the car gets old. If you spend a week travelling, it's more possible that you'll remember the great experiences, and you'll remember the feeling for a long time. A new study has found that spending money on experiences makes people happier than on material things.
For material things, it's possible that you'll care about every little thing. If you buy a nice pen, and someone else buys one with less money, it's possible that you will be unhappy because you spend more money. When it comes to experiences like trips, you won't think like that. If the experience is generally good, you will be happy with the price.
Material things can be compared more easily. If you buy an MP5 and then see a more suitable one, you may regret buying the first one. However, if you have a nice dinner at one restaurant, and then learn about another restaurant which someone says is better, you'll not regret the first meal.
Material things can cause jealousy (嫉妒). For example, if you buy a new toy and find that your friend has a better toy, you'll feel unhappy. Instead, if you travel to a beautiful place, then no matter where your friends have gone, it won't make the memory of your trip worse.
()11. When will money make you happy for a long time?
A. When you buy a car.
B. When you spend it in a clever way.
C. When you care about everything.
()12. What does the underlined word "material" in Paragraph 1 mean in Chinese?
A. 物质的 B. 精神的 C. 便宜的
()13. What may you do if you buy a watch and then see a better one in a magazine?
A. Buy a better one.
B. Ask for your money back.
C. Regret buying the first one.
()14. What does the passage tell us?
A. Material things may not cause jealousy.
B. People always regret buying things.
C. People will have happy memories of wonderful travelling.
()15. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Material things can cause jealousy
B. Buying material things is generally good
C. Spending money on experiences makes people happier

11. B 细节理解题。根据“Money can make you happy for a long time, only if you spend it in a clever way.”可知,只有当你用明智的方式花钱时,金钱才能让你长时间感到快乐。故选B项。
12. A 词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句可知,此处与体验消费相对,指花钱买物质的东西,因此material 意为“物质的”。故选 A 项。
13. C 推理判断题。根据“If you buy an MP5 and then see a more suitable one, you may regret buying the first one.”可推知,买完手表后看到了更好的手表,可能会后悔买第一只手表。故选 C 项。
14. C 细节理解题。根据“Instead, if you travel to a beautiful place, then no matter where your friends have gone, it won't make the memory of your trip worse.”可知,人们会对美好的旅行留下快乐的回忆。故选 C 项。
15. C 主旨大意题。本文通过对比物质消费和体验消费,说明了体验消费更能带来持久的幸福感,因此 C 项(把钱花在体验上让人更快乐)为最佳标题。故选 C 项。
