One reason vacations don’t increase happiness / after the trip may have to do with the stress of returning to work. /And for some travelers, the holiday itself was stressful. / The study didn’t find any relationship between the length of the vacation and overall happiness. / Since most of the happiness boost comes from planning and anticipating a vacation, / the study suggests that people may get more out of several small trips a year than one big vacation.

解析 本文讲述了旅行和陕乐的关系。旅行的烁主要来自于前期的盼望和准备。要注意短文中几个容易拼错的单词，“Netherlands”，“anticipation”，“rest-vacation”和“boost”。另外，考生可以根据评分方式，学会取舍。因为听写的评分不是根据写出的单词个数的多少而是以是否表达清楚原文的主要意思为依据的，然后以是否有小的错误，如单复数、大小写、定冠词等分层次扣分，也就是说，扣分有主要和次要信息之分，因此听的时候也要分清重点和非重点；另外，听写的全部内容根据意群分成15分，每个意群最多扣—分，如果在听的过程中有个别词或词组一下反应不出来，就不要苦苦纠缠某个单词，要跟着录音进行下一意群的听写，避免个别词或句的错漏影响其他内容的听写。
