Gross National Happiness
In the last century, newtechnology improved the lives of many people in many countries. Howev-er, onecountry resisted these changes. High in the Himalayan mountains of Asia, the kingdom of Bhutan remained separate. Its people andBuddhist (佛教) culture had not been affected for almost a thousand years.Bhutan,however, was a poor country. People died at a young age. Most of its peoplecould not read, and they did not know much about the outside world. Then, in1972, a new ruler named King Jigme Singye Wangchuck decided to helpBhutantobecome modern, but without losing its traditions.
King Wangchuck looked atother countries for ideas. He saw that most countries measured their progressby their Gross National Product (GNP). The GNP measures products and money.When the number of products sold increases people say the country is makingprogress. King Wangchuck had a different idea forBhutan. He wanted to measure hiscountry's progress by people's happiness. If the people's happiness increased,the king could say thatBhutanwas making progress. To decide if people
were happier, he created a measure called Gross National Happiness(GNH).
GNH is based on certainprinciples that create happiness. People are happier if they have healthcare,education, and jobs. They are happier when they live in a healthy, protectedenvironment. They are happier when they can keep their traditional culture andcustoms.-Finally, people are happier when they have a good, stable government.
Now this is some evidence ofincreased GNH inBhutan.People are healthier and are living longer.More people are educated andemployed. Twenty-five percent of the land has become national parks,and thecountry has almost no pollution. The Bhutanese continue to wear ttheirtraditional clothing and follow their ancient Buddhist customs.Bhutanhas alsobecome a democracy. In 2008, King Wangchuck gave hispower to his son. Althoughthe country still had a king, it held its first democratic elections that year.Bhutanhad political parties and political candidates for the first time. Finally,Bhutanhasconnected to the rest of the world through television and internet.
Bhutanis a symbol for socialprogress. Many countries are now interested inBhutan's GNH.These countries areinvestigating their own ways to measure happiness. They want to create newpoli-cies that take care of their people, cultures, and land.
Brazilmay be the next country touse the principles of GNH. Brazilian leaders see the principles of GNH as asource of inspiration.Brazilis a large country with a diverse population. If' happiness works as a measureof progress inBrazil,perhaps the rest of the world will follow.
Who was Jigme Singye Wangchuck？
A.president
B.Buddhist priest
C.general
D.king
听力原文： When you take a walk in any of the cities in the West, you often see a lot of people walking dogs. It is still true that dog is the most use fill and faithful animal in the world, but the reasons why people keep a dog have changed. In the old days people used to train dogs to protect themselves against attacks by other beasts. And later they came to realize that a dog was not only useful for protection but willing to obey his master. For example, when people used dogs for hunting, the dogs would not eat what was caught without permission. But now people in the city need not protect themselves against attacks of animals. Why do they keep dogs, then？ Some people keep dogs to protect themselves from robbery. But the most important reason is for companionship. For a child, a dog is his best friend when he was no friends to play with. For young couples, a dog is their child when they have no children. For old couples, a dog is also their child when their real children have grown up. So the main reason why people keep dogs has changed from protection to friendship.

C．Just for fun.
D．For the purpose of guarding the house.

听力原文： Different countries and different people have different manners. Before entering a house in some Asian countries, it is good manners to take off your shoes. In some European countries, even though shoes are very muddy, this is not done. A guest in a Chinese house sometimes does not finish a drink to show that enough has been had. In a Malay house, too, a guest always leaves a little food. In Eng land, a guest always finishes a drink to show that he or she enjoys it.
We should learn about the customs of other people, so that they will not think us ill-mannered. But people all over the world agree that being well-mannered really means being kind and helpful to others, especially to those older or weaker. If you remember this, you will not go wrong.
Here are some examples of the things that well-mannered people do and do not do. They never laugh at people when they are in trouble. They are always kind either to people or animals. When peo ple are waiting for a bus, or in a post office they line up to wait for their turn. On the bus, they give their seats to older people who are standing. If they accidentally bump into someone, or get in their way, they say "Excuse me" or "I'm sorry".
They say "Please" when making a request, and "Thank you" when they receive something. They do not sit down until other persons are seated. They do not talk too much about themselves. When they're eating, they do not speak with their mouths full of food.
