解析:选D 细节理解题。根据第四段“But materialists should at least be happy when they first buy something, shouldn’t they?”及第五段第一句“To figure it out, Howell did another study.”可知该题选D。
14.Why does the author use the ancient Greek philosophers words in the last paragraph?
A.To advise materialistic people not to try to impress others.
B.To persuade people to be satisfied with what they have.
C.To prove its unwise to be materialistic and desire too much.
D.To tell readers what they desire now might one day become theirs.
解析:选B 推理判断题。根据最后一段中那位哲学家的话“不要因期望你没有的东西而毁掉了你现在拥有的东西。记住:你现在拥有的东西就在你曾经渴望得到的东西之中”,再结合上文 Ryan Howell 研究得出的结论可知,作者引用这位哲学家的话旨在说服人们要对目前拥有的事物感到知足。因此,该题选B。
15.What can be the best title for the passage?
A.Are You a Materialist?
B.How To Acquire Happiness?
C.The Best Present for the Birthday
D.Which Can Make People Happier?
解析:选D 标题归纳题。通读全文可知,作者通过引用 Ryan Howell 的研究结果证实经历比有形物质更能给人带来快乐,故D项作文章标题最佳。
