【正文】 　　Groundwater is the word used to describe water that saturates the ground, filling all the available spaces. By far the most abundant type of groundwater is meteoric water。這就是典型的另有深意。但是如果是在考試中遇到不能理解的句子時(shí)，考生就偏向于一遍一遍地去讀句子，新托福閱讀到底在考察什么?我們來(lái)看看托福閱讀到底有什么深意。性格甚至能夠改變?nèi)藗儗?duì)于你外表的印象?！　±杖f(wàn)多維斯基說(shuō)：“總的來(lái)說(shuō)，如果人們認(rèn)為一個(gè)人的性格較好，那么他們會(huì)覺得無(wú)論與這個(gè)人做朋友還是做戀人都更合適?！　≡擁?xiàng)由蓋里 W 勒萬(wàn)多維斯基負(fù)責(zé)的研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，人們認(rèn)為，表現(xiàn)出不誠(chéng)實(shí)和粗魯?shù)葠毫悠焚|(zhì)的人外表也不夠吸引人。s physical attractiveness if she exhibited bad personal traits?　　This research provides a more positive alternative by reminding people that personality goes a long way toward determining your attractiveness?！　」怩r亮麗的外表并非人人都能擁有，但“相由心生”，性格好的人往往能看起來(lái)更有魅力，為什么呢?來(lái)看看今天的閱讀材料?！薄　ther findings were more predictable.　　以上就是今天的托福閱讀材料，每天做幾篇閱讀，堅(jiān)持下來(lái)，一定會(huì)有不小的進(jìn)步，閱讀的同時(shí)不要忘記，積累陌生詞匯與優(yōu)秀的句子，以便考試的時(shí)候能派上用場(chǎng)，英語(yǔ)不是一朝一夕的事，所以大家一定要勤加練習(xí)。　　When they were in their teens, teachers rated them for happiness, friendliness and energy.

Names can apparently predict how happy we are as individuals, with researchers at Manchester Metropolitan University claiming in 2009 that people called Judy and Joshua enjoy life the most. Ben, Andrew and Edward were seen as miserable names on the other hand.　　Married couples are most likely to be happy with their relationships, according to the study, which also found that the happiest relationships are those less than five years old between two university graduates who have no children.　　Research has also suggested that happiness begins at 50. A study from Stony Brook University, New York, found that stress, anger and worry fade after your 50th. Women were also reported to suffer greater stress, worry and sadness at all ages.　　Money makes the world go round, but it is not the key to happiness, according to other studies. In 2008, a survey from the Office for National Statistics found that British families were healthier and twice as well off as they were 20 years ago, but are no happier. However, other studies have found money can buy you happiness after all, but only if you spend it wisely. Indeed, that might be why a good holiday can boost your happiness levels for up to two months after although the break has to be very relaxing to have such an effect.　　以上就是今天的托福閱讀材料，每天做幾篇閱讀，堅(jiān)持下來(lái)，一定會(huì)有不小的進(jìn)步，閱讀的同時(shí)不要忘記，積累陌生詞匯與優(yōu)秀的句子，以便考試的時(shí)候能派上用場(chǎng)，英語(yǔ)不是一朝一夕的事，所以大家一定要勤加練習(xí)?！　⌒峦懈？荚嚱?jīng)典閱讀練習(xí)做題時(shí)可千萬(wàn)別一邊做題一邊看譯文，這樣會(huì)起不到練習(xí)的效果?！　∪蚍秶鷥?nèi)風(fēng)力發(fā)電的最主要的擴(kuò)張?jiān)从诩夹g(shù)到位。研究人員還在對(duì)這個(gè)問(wèn)題的嚴(yán)重程度進(jìn)行評(píng)估，他們希望能想辦法來(lái)消除或著大幅弱化這個(gè)問(wèn)題。據(jù)記載，美國(guó)風(fēng)力發(fā)電廠傷害的猛禽和其他禽鳥的死亡數(shù)量每年不超過(guò)300只?！　∧承﹨^(qū)域的大型風(fēng)力發(fā)電場(chǎng)很可能會(huì)影響候鳥的飛行方式，他們殺害了大型猛禽(尤其是老鷹，獵鷹和鷹)，這些猛禽喜歡沿那些風(fēng)力渦輪機(jī)所處的理想嵴線捕食。氫氣可以存儲(chǔ)起來(lái)，在需要額外或后備電源時(shí)用來(lái)發(fā)電。風(fēng)力渦輪機(jī)的所在地還可用于放牛等其他用途，農(nóng)民們和農(nóng)場(chǎng)主可以通過(guò)土地出租供風(fēng)力發(fā)電來(lái)增加額外收入。全美的電力需求基本上都可以通過(guò)挖掘北達(dá)科他州、南達(dá)科他州和得克薩斯州的風(fēng)力發(fā)電潛力來(lái)滿足。(原文回顧)　　參考譯文　　風(fēng)力發(fā)電的運(yùn)用從1980年起一直迅猛增長(zhǎng)。 manufacturing them produces little water pollution. The land under wind turbines can be used for grazing cattle and other purposes, and leasing land for wind turbines can provide extra ine for farmers and ranchers.　　2. The word emit in the passage is closest in meaning to　　○Use　　○Require　　○Release　　○Destroy　　Paragraph 3: Wind power has a significant cost advantage over nuclear power and has bee petitive with coalfired power plants in many places. With new technological advances and mass production, projected cost declines should make wind power one of the world’s cheapest ways to produce electricity. In the long run, electricity from large wind farms in remote areas might be used to make hydrogen gas from water during periods when there is less than peak demand for electricity. The hydrogen gas could then be fed into a storage system and used to generate electricity when additional or backup power is needed.　　Paragraph 4: Wind power is most economical in areas with steady winds. In areas where the wind dies down, backup electricity from a utility pany or from an energy storage system bees necessary. Backup power could also be provided by linking wind farms with a solar cell, with conventional or pumpedstorage hydropower, or with efficient naturalgasburning turbines. Some drawbacks to wind farms include visual pollution and noise, although these can be overe by improving their design and locating them in isolated areas.　　3. Based on the information in paragraph 3 and paragraph 4, what can be inferred about the states of North Dakota, South Dakota, and Texas mentioned at the end of paragraph 1?　　○They rely largely on coalfired power plants.　　○They contain remote areas where the winds rarely die down.　　○Over 1 percent of the electricity in these states is produced by wind farms.　　○Wind farms in these states are being expanded to meet the power needs of the United States.　　4. According to paragraph 3, which of the following is true about periods when the demand for electricity is relatively low?　　○These periods are times when wind turbines are powered by hydrogen gas.　　○These periods provide the opportunity to produce and store energy
