     Happiness is for everyone. You don"t need to care about those people who have beautiful houses
with large gardens and swimming pools or those who have nice cars and a lot of money and so on.
Why? Because those who have big houses may often feel lonely and those who have cars may want to
walk on the country roads in their free time.
     In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. When you are in trouble at
school, your friends will help you; when you study hard at your lessons, your parents are always taking
good care of your life and your health; when you get a success, your friends will say congratulations to
you; when you do something wrong, people around you will help you to correct it. And when you do
something good to others, you will feel happy, too. All these are your happiness. If you notice a bit of
them, you can see that happiness is always around you.
      Happiness doesn"t mean money. It is a feeling of your heart. When you are poor, you can also say
you are very happy, because you have something that can"t be bought with money. When you meet with
difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy, because you have more chances to challenge yourself. As the saying goes, life is like a revolving(旋转的)door. When it closes, it also opens. If you take every
chance you get, you can be a happy and lucky person.

1. When you do something wrong , people around you will     .

A. quarrel with you              
B. help you correct it
C. do something wrong like you    
D. laugh at you

2. What will your friends say when you make great progress?

A. Oh, so do I                  
B. Congratulations!
C. Good luck!                    
D. Just so-so

3. The passage mainly tells us      .

A. parents always care for our life and health
B. we"re not happy if we meet with difficulties
C. happiness is always around us
D. life is colorful

     I"m seventeen. I had worked as a box boy at a supermarket in Los Angeles. People came to the
counter (柜台) and you put things in their bags for them. And carried things to their cars. It was hard
work.
   While working, you wear a plate with your name on it. I once met someone I knew years ago. I
remembered his name and said, "Mr Castle, how are you?" We talked about this and that. As he left,
he said, "It was nice talking to you, Brett." I felt great, he remembered me. Then I looked down at my
name plate. Oh, no. He didn"t remember me at all, he just read the name plate. I wish I had put "Irving"
down on my name plate. If he"d have said, "Oh yes, Irving, how could I forget you?" I"d have been ready
for him. There"s nothing personal here.
    The manager and everyone else who were a step above the box boys often shouted orders. One of
these was: you couldn"t accept tips. Okay, I"m outside and I put the bags in the car. For a lot of people,
the natural reaction (反应) is to take a quarter and give it to me. I"d say, "I"m sorry, I can"t." They"d get
angry. When you give someone a tip, you"re sort of being polite. You take a quarter and you put it in
their hand and you expect them to say, "Oh, thanks a lot." When you say, "I"m sorry, I can"t." they feel
a little put down . They say, "No one will know." And they put it in your pocket. You say, "I really can"t."
It gets to a point where you almost have to hurt a person physically (身体上) to prevent him from tipping
you. It was not in agreement with the store"s belief in being friendly. Accepting tips was a friendly thing
and made the customer feel good. I just couldn"t understand the strangeness of some people"s ideas. One
lady actually put it in my pocket, got in the car, and drove away. I would have had to throw the quarter
at her or eaten it or something.
   I had decided that one year was enough. Some people needed the job to stay alive and fed. I guess I
had the means and could afford to hate it and give it up.

1. What can be the best title for this text? 

A. How Hard Life Is for Box Boys        
B. Getting along with Customers 
C. Why I Gave up My Job                  
D. The Art of Taking Tips

2. From the second paragraph, we can infer (推断) that ________. 

A. the writer didn"t like the impersonal part of his job 
B. with a name plate, people can easily start talking 
C. Mr Castle mistook Irving for Brett 
D. Irving was the writer"s real name

3. The box boy refused to accept tips because ________. 

A. customers only gave small tips 
B. some customers had strange ideas about tipping 
C. the store didn"t allow the box boys to take tips 
D. he didn"t want to fight with the customers

4. The underlined phrase "put down" in the third paragraph probably means ________. 

A. misunderstood    
B. defeated      
C. hateful        
D. hurt

     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.选项中的两项为多余选项

     No fight can end, and no friendship can move on, until everyone says these little words: I"m sorry.
Sometimes, though, they can be difficult to say,  1  .
     It"s not about winning.
    Friendships aren"t like the Super Bowl, and there should never be a winner and a loser. When you start
fighting with a friend, it may feel important that you "win" the fight by proving you"re right and he is wrong, or by making him be the first to apologize.
        2  
    You may have heard the expression "His pride stood in the way." It is usually used to describe a
person who is so determined to be"right"that he lets an opportunity for happiness pass him by forever.
   3   Remember: as time goes on, we usually forget who was right and who was wrong in a disagreement, and only remember the sadness of losing a friend.
   Take the first step.
    Are you sick of fighting? Do you think this fight is just not important enough to ruin your friendship?
  4   You don"t have to take full responsibility for starting the fight, or even say that your feelings were
wrong. But you should find something you did or said that"s worth apologizing for. Maybe you"re sorry
that you let the fight go for so long, of that you overreacted(反应过度的) to something your friend did.
If you say you are sorry, it"s like an invitation for your friend to do the same.      5  

A. Then try to be the first to apologize.
B. Stop thinking about your pride.
C .It"s about taking some resposibility for the argument.
D. Don"t let this happen to a friendship you care about.
E. Here are some things to keep in mind.
F. There are some special cases when you shouldn"t be the one to apologize first.
G. Once you"ve both said it, you"ll both feel a million times better.

      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 ourselves." In
other words, we make our own happiness. Here are a few suggestions 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 future - for example, getting into college or getting a good job - that we fail to enjoy the
present. You should enjoy life"s 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. Money Make You Happy                
B. The Secrets of Happiness
C. Ideas for Helping Other People to Be Happy  
D. Good Friends Make You Happy

2. The writer thinks that _____________

A. everyone knows how to live a happier life
B. it"s wrong to spend time on work
C. hobbies take up too much time
D. doing good things for someone can make you happier.

3. Which of the following is not mentioned in the passage?

A. Reading a good book                
B. Traveling to a foreign country
C. Playing a sport                      
D. Spending time with close friends

     The UK has a well-respected higher education system and some of the top universities in the world.
But to those who are new to it all, it can be something confusing.
     October is usually the busiest month in the academic calendar (学习日程表). Universities have
something called Freshers" Week for their newcomers. It"s a great opportunity to make new friends, join
lots of clubs and settle into university life.
     However, having just left the comfort of home and all your friends behind, meeting lots of strangers in
big halls can be uneasy. Where do you start? Who should you make friends with? Which clubs should

    Make sure you know something about the British social customs. Have a few wine glasses and snacks
handy for your housemates and friends.
     Sometimes cups of tea or even sweets can give you a head start in making friends.
     The more active you are, the more likely you"ll be to meet new people than if you"re someone who
never leaves his rooms.
     Keep your door open when you"re in and that sends positive messages to your neighbors that you"re
friendly.
