The paper, published this March in Psychology and Aging, examined health an
36、d welfare surveys from roughly 40,000 Germans between ages 18 and 96. The surveys were conducted every year from 1993 to 2003. Survey respondents (受访者 ) were asked to estimate their present and future life satisfaction on a scale of 0 to 10, among other questions. The researchers found that young ad
37、ults (age 18 to 39) routinely overestimated their future life satisfaction, while middle-aged adults (age 40 to 64) more accurately predicted how they would feel in the future. Adults of 65 and older, however, were far more likely to underestimate their future life satisfaction. Not only did they fe
38、el more satisfied than they thought they would, the older pessimists seemed to suffer a lower ratio (比率 ) of disability and death for the study period. “We observed that being too optimistic in predicting a better future than actually observed was associated with a greater risk of disability and a g
39、reater risk of death within the following decade,” wrote Frieder R. Lang, a professor at the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg. Lang and his colleagues believed that people who were pessimistic about their future may be more careful about their actions than people who expected a rosy future. “Seeing
40、a dark future may encourage positive evaluations of the actual self and may contribute to taking improved precautions (预防措施 ),” the authors wrote. Surprisingly, compared with those in poor health or who had low incomes, respondents who enjoyed good health or income were associated with expecting a g
41、reater decline. Also, the researchers said that higher income was related to a greater risk of disability. The authors of the study noted that there were limitations to their conclusions. Illness, medical treatment and personal loss could also have driven health outcomes. However, the researchers sa
42、id a pattern was clear. “We found that from early to late adulthood, individuals adapt their expectations of future life satisfaction from optimistic, to accurate, to pessimistic,” the authors concluded. 【小题 1】 According to the study, who made the most accurate prediction of their future life satisf
43、action A Optimistic adults. B Adults of lower income. C Adults in poor health. D Middle-aged adults 【小题 2】 Pessimism may be positive in some way because it causes people _. A to fully enjoy their present life B to take measures against potential risks C to estimate their contribution accurately D to
44、 value health more highly than wealth 【小题 3】 How do people of higher income see their future A They will suffer mental illness B They will become pessimistic. C They will earn less money. D They will have less time to enjoy life. 【小题 4】 What is the clear conclusion of the study A Pessimism guarantee
45、s chances of survival. B Good financial condition leads to good health. C Expectations of future life satisfaction decline with age. D Medical treatment determines health outcomes. 答案：【小题 1】 D 【小题 2】 B 【小题 3】 C 【小题 4】 C 试题分析 : 通过调查发现：随着年龄的增长，对生活的期望也就下降。 【小题 1】 D细节理解题。第四段说， 18 39岁的年轻人组高估自己对未来生活的满意度，
46、65岁及以上年龄组往往低估，而 40 64岁的中年人组对自己未来生活的满意度估计更准确一些。 【小题 2】 B根据文章第七段： Seeing a dark future may encourage positive evaluations of the actual self and may contribute to taking improved precautions。第六段说， Lang和他的同事认为，对自己未来悲观的人比乐天派对自己的日常行为更小心，第七段说，这样的人可能会采取预防措施 (应对潜在的危险 )，因此选 B项 【小题 3】 C根据文章第八段： respondents wh
47、o enjoyed good health or income were associated with expecting a greater decline. Also, the researchers said that higher income was related to a greater risk of disability.享有良好的健康和收入的人对他们的生活的预期大大的下降 ,，故选 C项。 【小题 4】 C根据文章的意思。特别是文章最后一段： We found that from early to late adulthood, individuals adapt their expectations of future life satisfaction from optimistic, to accurate, to pessimistic,我们发现，从早期到成年后期，个人适应其预期的未来生活满意度从乐观，准确的说，到悲观。可知，随着年龄的增长，对生活的期望也就下降，故选 C项。 考点：日常生活类阅读。 The technology is great.
