What would you do with $590m? This is now a(n) 【B1】______for Gloria MacKenzie, an 84-year-old widow who recently【B2】______from her small, tin-roofed house in Florida to collect the biggest lottery in history. The blogosphere(the world of weblogs)is full of【B3】______for this lucky pensioner. But if she hopes her new-found money will【B4】______lasting feelings of fulfillment, she could do【B5】______than read "Happy Money" by Elizabeth Dunn and Michael Norton. These two【B6】______—she teaches psychology at the University of British Columbia; he【B7】______on marketing at Harvard Business School—use an array of behavioral research to show that the most【B8】______ways to spend money can be counterintuitive. Fantasies of great wealth often involve【B9】______of fancy cars and palatial homes on remote seashores.【B10】______satisfaction with these material purchases【B11】______fairly quickly. What was【B12】______exciting and new becomes old-hat; remorse【B13】______in. It is far better to spend money on experiences, say Ms. Dunn and Mr. Norton, like interesting trips,【B14】______meals or even going to the cinema. These purchases often become more valuable with time—【B15】______stories or memories—particularly if they involve feeling more【B16】______to others. Readers of "Happy Money" are clearly a【B17】______lot, anxious about fulfillment, not hunger. Money may not quite buy happiness, but people in wealthier countries are generally happier than those in poor ones. Yet the【B18】______between feeling good and spending money on others can be seen among rich and poor people around the world, and【B19】______enhances the pleasure of most things for most people. Not everyone will agree with the authors ideas, but most people will come【B20】______from this book believing it was money well spent.

听力原文:W: Mr. Atkins, Would you please tell the court what you were doing when the accident happened and what you saw?
M: Yes, I was driving home from work. It was about 5:15, and there was a blue car in front of me. We were both driving along Harbor Road when a small white Ford suddenly shot out of a side road. It shot right in front of the blue car. The driver tried to stop, but it was impossible. He ran into the white Ford.
W: I see. Now, how fast was the car in front of you going when the accident happened?
M: The blue car? 30 miles an hour. Certainly no more than that.
W: And the white Ford shot out without any warning?
M: Yes, that's right.
W: Then, how can you be sure the blue car was only doing 30?
M: Because I was only doing 30, and the blue car wasn't going any faster than I was.
W: Are you sure of that?
M: Yes, I am. I'm positive.
W: How can you be so positive, Mr. Atkins? Were you looking at your speedometer when the accident happened?
M: Of course not. I was looking at the road ahead. That's how I managed to see the accident!
W: Well, if you weren't looking at your speedometer, how can you possibly be sure how fast you were going?
M: Because I never go faster than 30 on that road.
