阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳答案。
The pursuit of happiness can be a lifelong search for some — but researchers believe they may have found a key factor in feeling a greater overall sense of well-being.
Nottingham Trent University researchers found that the more an individual identified with (产生共鸣) a particular group, such as family, in their local community or through a hobby, the happier they were with their life.
＂Our findings suggest that thinking more about one’s group life could have significant benefits for an overall sense of well-being,＂ said Dr Juliet Wakefield, a psychologist at Nottingham Trent University.
＂We tend to identify with groups that share our values, interests and life priorities, as well as those that support us in times of crisis, and we can see how this would be linked to happiness. Our work taps into (发掘) knowledge that is deep within all of us, but which we often forget due to the fast-paced and achievement-focused nature of modern life — to be your best self, you are likely to require the support of others.＂
They studied how 4,000 participants felt connected to certain groups, and then measured the influence this had upon their levels of happiness. It’s important to note that identifying with a group isn’t the same as membership, though. You can be a member of a group with which you feel no connection at all. It’s that subjective sense of belonging that’s crucial for happiness.
Health care professionals should encourage people to join groups that they are interested in, or which promote their values and ideals, as well as advising people to maintain association with groups they already belong to. Simple social interventions (干预) such as this could in turn help to reduce health care expenses and prevent future ill health.
1.According to the text, who are much happier?
A. Individuals who have happy families.
B. Individuals who have a good many hobbies.
C. People who gain membership of many social groups.
D. People who feel a strong sense of belonging to a group.
2.What do people tend to forget in Juliet’s view?
A. They live a busy and stressful life.
B. They need others’ help for self-improvement.
C. Happiness is of the same importance as work.
D. They should connect with like-minded people.
3.What does the underlined word ＂this＂ in the last paragraph refer to?
A. Reduction of health care expenses.
B. Social involvement with certain groups.
C. Promotion of people’s values and interests.
D. Health care experts’ encouragement and advice.
4.What is the text mainly about?
A. The nature of happiness.
B. The search for happiness.
C. The secret to happiness.
D. The attitude to happiness.
【文章大意】这是一篇研究类文章。研究人员发现，幸福感的关键因素在于一个人对社会团体的主观归属感。
1.D 【解析】考查推理判断。根据第二段中的＂the more an individual identified with (产生共鸣) a particular group, such as family, in their local community or through a hobby, the happier they were with their life＂以及倒数第二段中的＂It’s that subjective sense of belonging that’s crucial for happiness＂可知，对某一团体有强烈归属感的人更幸福。
B

It is important to introduce yourself in a creative, memorable way to distinguish yourself from the crowd.?　 1 　Since being witty(言辞诙谐的)doesn’t always come easily, try one of these creative introductions and separate yourself from the rest.
Write your first or last name on a piece of paper.?　 2　 So if your name is Tom, you might say you are tireless, optimistic and mild.

Introduce yourself silently, by drawing a picture of yourself on a large sheet of paper.　 4 　In fact, in some groups, it may be better if you don’t. Put a title at the top of your drawing, if you like, such as, ＂Hello! This is me.＂
Turn the traditional introduction upside down by describing yourself in exactly opposite terms of who you are. Have fun with this ＂back door approach＂, and keep people guessing just how much you are exaggerating (夸张).?　 5 　Don’t bother calling me tomorrow, because I will be hiding in a closet. Send text messages to my girlfriend while I drink a Bud Light on the job.
A. This introduction requires you to be gifted in art.
B. Freely admit that you don’t like talking about yourself.
