本篇文章是关于快乐影响公司运作的讨论。

文章开篇引出人们发现拥有较多乐观开朗员工的公司，更倾向于多投资在研发上这一现象。

于是，相关人员针对这一现象从各种因素出发进行了研究。

这些因素包括：公司规模、公司所在行业、公司营业额、公司总部所在地等等。

最后得出结论：从长远来看，公司投资多少、公司投资方向与乐观并不直接相关，而主要取决于公司决策者的决定。

同时，乐观的人可能比普通人更倾向于前瞻性思考和进行创意型工作。

Happy people work differently. They’re more productive, more creative, and willing to take greater risks. And new research suggests that happiness might influence how firms work, too.Companies located in places with happier people invest more, according to a recent paper by Tuugi Chuluun of Loyola University Maryland and Carol Graham of Brookings. In particular, firms in happy places spend more on R&D. That’s because happiness, they argue, is linked to the kind of longer term thinking necessary for making investments for the future.Chuluun and Graham wanted to know if the optimism and proclivity for risk-taking that come with happiness would change the way companies invested. So they compared U.S. cities’ average happiness, as measured by Gallup polling, with the investment activity of publicly traded firms in those areas. (Gallup asks respondents to evaluate their lives from zero to 10, with 10 representing the “best possible life.”) Sure enough, firms’ investment and R&D intensity were correlated with the happiness of the area in which they were headquartered (view maps of average happiness, investment, and R&D here). But is it really happiness that’s linked to investment, or could something else about happier cities explain why firms there spend more on R&D? To find out, the researchers controlled for various factors that might make firms more likely to invest — like size, industry, and sales — and for indicators that a place was desirable to live in, like growth in wages or population. The link between happiness and investment generally held even after accounting forthese things (though more so for R&D than for other investments).The correlation between happiness and investment was particularly strong for younger firms, which the authors attribute to “less codified decision making process” and the possible presence of “younger and less experienced managers who are more likely to be influenced by sentiment.’” The relationship was also stronger in places where happiness was spread more equally. Firms seem to invest more in places where most people are relatively happy, rather than in places with happiness “inequality, or large gaps in the distribution of well-being.”While this doesn’t prove that happiness causes firms to invest more or to take a longer-term view, the authors believe it at least hints at that possibility. It’s not hard to imagine that local culture and sentiment would help shape how executives think about the future. Just ask anyone who’s spent time in Silicon Valley. “It surely seems plausible that [happy people] would be more forward-thinking [and] creative and lean towards R&D more than the average,” said Graham.参考答案：C 1.

总评：2016年全国卷II稳中有变，难度适中，全面科学地考查了考生对基础知识的掌握和运用语言的能力。

阅读理解从文体上来看，与前几年的出题思路一致：一篇广告，一篇说明文，两篇记叙文；考查内容全面，其中以细节理解题为主，但是推理判断题的比重有所增加，主旨大意题、词义猜测题均有涉及。

七选五重在考查上下文衔接识别。

话题常围绕生活知识、给建议等，这样的话题考生比较熟悉。

只要正确理解文意、合理分配时间定能攻克此题。

完形填空全文逻辑清晰，上下文线索明了，做题过程比较符合考生所谓“顺”的预期。

偏向词汇辨析考查的明显减少。

今年该题重点考查语篇理解能力，并没有在故事情感线索处及近义词辨析方面过多挖空增加区分度。

完形填空不在情节上、词汇考查上大做文章的趋势还是愈发明显的。

语法填空与短文改错与去年的试题难度基本一致。

突出了高考的考查重点，应该说大部分同学在这两道题上都能取得不错的分数。

动词的时态语态、非谓语动词、名词的单复数以及不同词性之间的转换仍然是这两种题型考查的重点。

最后，书面表达部分是一篇书信体裁中的邀请类作文，应该说也是未来出题的一种趋势，那就是回归到高考题的经典考法上来。

第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节(共15题：每小题2分，满分30分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

Children of every age benefit from patient parenting. Still, _5_ every parent would like to be patient, this is no easy _6_. Sometimes parents get exhausted and frustrated and are unable to maintain a _7_ and composed style with their kids. I understand this.You’re only human, and sometimes your kids can _8_ you just a little too far. And then the _9_ happens: You lose your patience and either scream at your kids or say something that was a bit too _10_ and does nobody any good.

Well, I went to the conference, but I was a little 40. None of them were there. But the conference was well 41, and every half hour we would move on to hear a new writer speak. Soon the42period of the day came. A man introduced himself and gave the same little speech we had heard since that morning. 43, he threw in a twist(转折). "44 are more than just words thrown together," he said. "Words are more than just 45 thrown together. You must also 46 the mood or the tone (语⽓) of your ideas. " He let that idea sink in and then 47 us about the difference between a house and a home. We all thought that was a 48 question, and made some wild guesses at it." “Class,”he49, "the difference between a. house and a home is in the mood or the tone.

2016高考英语全国卷2及答案详解DA few students hesitated to start. They waited to see the rest of the class would do. Several others checked the instructions and made something according to one of the model plans provided. Another group built something out of their own imaginations.Once I had a boy who worked experimentally with Tinkertoys in his free time. His constructions filled a shelf in the art classroom and a good part of his bedroom at home. I was delighted at the presence of such a student. Here was an exceptionally creative mind at work. His presence meant that I had an unexpected teaching assistant in class whose creativity would infect(感染) other students.Encouraging this kind of thinking has a downside. I ran the risk of losing those students who had a different style of thinking. Without fail one would declare, ” But I’m just not creative.”“Do you dream at night when you’re asleep?”“Oh, sure.”“So tell me one of your most interesting dreams.” The student would tell something wildl y imaginative. Flying in the sky or in a time machine or growing three heads. “That’s pretty creative. Who does that for you?”“Nobody. I do it.”“Really-at night, when you’re asleep?”“Sure.”“Try doing it in the daytime, in class, okay?”25. The teacher used Tinkertoys in class in order to ________?A. know more about the studentsB. make the lessons more excitingC. raise the students’ interest in artD. teach the students about toy design26. What do we know about the boy mentioned in Paragraph 3?A. He liked to help his teacher.B. He preferred to study alone.C. He was active in class.D. He was imaginative.27. What does the underlined word “downside” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A. Mistake.B. DrawbackC. Difficulty.D. Burden.28.Why did the teacher ask the students to talk about their dreams?A. To help them to see their creativity.B. To find out about their sleeping habits.C. To help them to improve their memory.D. To find out about their ways of thinking.CReading can be a social activity. Think of the people who belong to book groups. They choose books to read and then meet to discuss them. Now, the website turns the page on the traditional idea of a book group.Members go on the site and register the books they own and would like to share. BookCrossing provides an identification number to stick inside the book. Then the person leaves it in a public place, hoping that the book will have an adventure, traveling far and wide with each new reader who finds it.Bruce Pederson, the managing director of BookCrossing, says, “The two things that change your life are the people you meet and books you read. BookCrossing combines both.”Members leave books on park benches and buses, in train stations and coffee shops. Whoever finds their book will go to the site and record where they found it.People who find a book can also leave a journal entry describing what they thought of it. E-mails are then sent to the BookCrossing to keep them updated about where their books have been found.Bruce peterson says the idea is for people not to be selfish by keeping a book to gather dust on a shelf at home.BookCrossing is part of a trend among people who want to get back to the “real” and not the virtual(虚拟). The site now has more than one million members in more than one hundred thirty-five countries.29. Why does the author mention book groups in the first paragraph?A. To explain what they are.B. To introduce BookCrossing.C. To stress the importance of reading.D. To encourage readers to share their ideas.30. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. The bookB. An adventure.C.A public place.D. The identification number.31. What will a BookCrosser do with a book after reading it?A. Meet other readers to discuss it.B. Keep it safe in his bookcase.C. Pass it on to another reader.D. Mail it back to its owner.32. What is the best title for the text?A. Online Reading: A Virtual TourB. Electronic Books: A new TrendC. A Book Group Brings Tradition BackD. A Website Links People through BooksDA new collection of photos brings an unsuccessful Antarctic voyage back to life.Frank Hurley’s pictures would be outstanding----undoubtedly first-rate photo-journalism---if they had been made last week. In fact, they were shot from 1914 through 1916, most of them after a disastrous shipwreck(海滩), by a cameraman who had no reasonable expectation of survival. Many of the images were stored in an ice chest, under freezing water, in the damaged wooden ship.The ship was the Endurance, a small, tight, Norwegian-built three-master that was intended to take Sir Ernest Shackleton and a small crew of seamen and scientists, 27 men in all, to the southernmost shore of Antarc tica’s Weddell Sea. From that point Shackleton wanted to force a passage by dog sled(雪橇) across the continent. The journey was intended to achieve more than what Captain Robert Falcon Scott had done. Captain Scott had reached the South Pole early in 1912 but had died with his four companions on the march back.As writer Caroline Alexander makes clear in her forceful and well-researched story The Endurance, adventuring was even then a thoroughly commercial effort. Scott’s last journey, completed as he lay in a tent dying of cold and hunger, caught the world’s imagination, and a film made in his honor drew crowds. Shackleton, a onetime British merchant-navy officer who had got to within 100 miles of the South Pole in 1908, started a business before his 1914 voyage to make money from movie and still photography. Frank Hurley, a confident and gifted Australian photographer who knew the Antarctic, was hired to make the images, most of which have never before been published.33. What do we know about the photos taken by Hurley?A. They were made last weekB. They showed undersea sceneriesC. They were found by a cameramanD. They recorded a disastrous adventure34. Who reached the South Pole first according to the text?A. Frank HurleyB. Ernest ShackletonC. Robert Falcon ScottD. Caroline Alexander35. What does Alexander think was the purpose of the 1914 voyage?A. Artistic creationB. Scientific researchC. Money makingD. Treasure hunting第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
