They use all of their senses to learn about the sights, sounds, tastes, and smells in their environments. They learn how to communicate with their parents, grandparents, siblings, friends, and other people important to their world. When they enter school, children learn subjects like reading, writing, and maths. They also continue to learn a lot outside the classroom. They learn which behaviors are likely to be rewarded and which are likely to be punished. They learn social skills for communicating with other children. After they finish school, people must learn to deal with many changes that affect their lives, such as getting married, raising children, and finding and keeping a job.Because learning continues throughout our lives and influences almost everything we do, the study of learning is important in many different fields. Teachers need to understand the best ways to educate children. Scientists, social workers and other human service workers need to understand how certain experiences change peoples behaviors.Learning is closely related (相關(guān)的) to memory, which is the storage(儲存) of information in the brain (大腦). Scientists who study memory are interested in how the brain stores knowledge, where this storage takes place, and how the brain later offers knowledge when we need it. However, scientists who study learning are more interested in behavior and how behavior changes as a result of a persons experiences. （1）The underlined word “siblings” in Paragraph 2 probably means _.A . teachersB . classmatesC . doctorsD . brothers or sisters（2）When do children begin to know to behave well according to the passage?A . After they go into societyB . Before they enter school.C . When they are at school.D . Before they are born.（3）Which of the following is WRONG according to the passage?A . As a matter of fact, learning begins at a persons birth and last the whole life.B . Teachers need to understand the best ways to educate their students.C . People need to understand how certain experiences change their behaviorsD . Social workers need to study how experiences affect peoples thoughts.13. （8分） Most people want to be happy, but few know how to find happiness. Money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness. Aristotle, a Greek thinker, said, Happiness depends upon (取決于)ourselves. In other words, we make our own happiness. Here are a few suggestions（建議） to help you be happier.The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Too often, we spend so much time thinking about the future. For example, getting into college or getting a good job that we fail to enjoy the present. You should enjoy lifes simple pleasures, such as reading a good book, listening to your favorite music, or spending time with close friends. People who have several close friends often live happier and healthier lives.Another secret to living a happy life is to be active, and have hobbies where you forget your problems and time. Many people experience this dancing, or playing a sport, such as swimming. You can forget about your problems, and only think about the activity.Finally, many people find happiness in helping others. Studies show that people feel good when they spend their time helping others. If you want to feel happier, do good things for someone. You can help a friend with his or her studies, go shopping to buy food for an elderly person, or simply help out around the house by washing the dishes.（1）The best title of the passage is_.A .
