问答题According to Professor Cappuccio, what makes modern people sacrifice their sleeping time?

The traffic lights were red when the driver reached them．To the surprise of his passenger,the ear did not slow down．Unexpectedly the passenger was thrown forward in the vehicle as the driver put on his brakes at the last moment．The car stopped just in time.
"Sorry,I didn't notice the light．I thought it was green until I saw that it was the top light which was shining."
This strange story is quite true．About ten men in every hundred are color blind in some way;women are luckier--only about one in two hundred suffers from color blindness.
In some cases,a man may not be able to see deep red．He may think that red,orange and yellow are all the same as green.
People often like one color more than others．Blue is the color of the sky and sea．Green makes us think of fields and trees．Red is the color of blood and makes some people think of danger．Black is the color of night．In the dark we cannot see what is around us so we are sometimes afraid of the unknown and do not like black as a color.

According to the passage,which of the following statements is true?

A.Black stands for unhappines
B.Black makes people think of nigh
C.Black makes people think of sorro
D.Black is the color of the mournin

1 Ask most people anywhere in the world what they want out of life and the reply will
probably be:"to be happy."Ed Deiner,an American psychology professor,has spent his
whole professional life studying what makes people happy,comparing levels of happiness
between cultures and trying to find out exactly why we enjoy ourselves.
2 Many people would say that this question does not need an answer.But Professor Deiner
has one anyway."If you're a cheerful,happy person,your marriage is more likely to last,and
you're more likely to make money and be successful at your job.On average,happy people
have stronger immune（免疫的）systems, and there is some evidence that they live longer."
3 So who are the world's happiest people?It depends on how the word is defined.There
is individual happiness,the sense of joy we get when we do something we like.But there is
also the feeling of satisfaction we get when we know that others respect us and approve of
how we behave.According to Professor Deiner,the Western world pursues individual
happiness while Asia prefers mutual satisfaction.
4 "In the West, the individualistic（个人主义的）culture means that your mood matters
much more than it does in the East.People ask themselves,what can I do that's fun or
interesting?They become unhappy when they can't do any of these things.If you ask
people from Japan or China if they are happy,they tend to look at what has gone wrong in
their lives.If not much has gone wrong,then they are satisfied."
5 People from Spain and other Spanish-speaking countries had the happiest culture,Professor
Deiner found."The biggest cultural difference is to do with pride and shame.Hispanic（西班牙
语言的）cultures report much more pride and much less shame than others."
6 Income also made a big difference to people's happiness,but only at the lowest levels.
Average income earners in the US were much happier than people in poverty.But
millionaires were only a little bit happier than people on average incomes.It seems that
money makes us happy when we have enough to feel secure.
7 But can we be too happy? "You get people who are actually happy,but they think
happiness is so important that they try to be even happier.This desire to be always happy is
a product of individualism,where the emphasis is on you individually,your emotions and
feeling good.People can end up feeling unhappy because ordinary happiness is not good
enough for them."

Knowing Your Real Personality from Sleeping Positions
Everyone has got two personalities—the one that is shown to the world and the other that is secret and real.You don't show your secret personality when you're awake because you can control yourself,but when you're asleep,your sleeping position shows the real you.In a normal night,of course,you often change your sleeping positions.The important position that best shows your se-cret personality is the one that you go to sleep.
If you go to sleep on your back,you're a very open person.You nbrmally trust people and you are easily influenced by new ideas.You don't like to make people unhappy,so you never ex-press your real feelings.You're quite shy and you aren't very confident.
If you sleep on your stomach,you are a person who likes to keep secrets.You worry a lot and you're always easily becoming sad.You never want to change your ideas,but you are satisfied with your life the way it is.You usually live for today not for tomorrow.
If you sleep on curled up,you are probably a very nervous person.You have a low opinion of yourself and often protect yourself from being hurt,so you are very defensive.You're shy and you don't usually like meeting people.You like to be on your own.
If you sleep on your side,you have usually got a well-balanced personality.You know your strengths and weaknesses.You're usually careful.You have a confident personality.You sometimes feel worried,but you don't often get unhappy .You always say what you think,even if it makes people angry.
