How often one hears children wishing they were grown-ups, and old people wishing

题型：不详难度：来源：
How often one hears children wishing they were grown-ups, and old people wishing they were young again. Each age has its pleasures and its pains(痛苦), and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without wasting his time in useless regrets(后悔).
Childhood is a time when there are few responsibilities(责任) to make life difficult. If a child has good parents, he is fed, looked after and loved, whatever he may do. It is impossible that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return. What’s more, life is always giving new things to the child--- things that have lost their interest for older people because they are too well-known. But a child has his pains: he is not so free to do what he wishes to do; he is repeatedly being told not do something or being punished for what he has wrongly done.
When a young man starts to earn his own living, he can no longer expect others to pay for his food, his clothes, and his room, but has to work if he wants to live comfortably. If he spends most of his time playing about in the way he used to as a child, he will go hungry. And if he breaks the laws of society(社会) as he used to break the laws of his parents, he may go to prison. If, however, he worked hard, keeps out of trouble and has good health, he can have the greatest happiness of building up for himself his own position(地位) in society.
小题1:What is the happiest person according to the passage?
A．A child who can do whatever he likes.
B．An old person who lives in a comfortable life.
C．A grown-up who no longer expects other to pay for him.
D．A person who never wastes his time in his whole life.
小题2:Which of the following is true, according to the second paragraph?
A．Life for a child is fairly easy.
B．A child is always loved whatever he does.
C．If much is given to a child, he must do something in return.
D．Only children are interested in life.
小题3:What is the main idea of the passage?
A．Life is not enjoyable since each age had some pains.
B．Young men can have the greatest happiness if they work hard.
C．Childhood is the most enjoyable time in one’s life.
D．One is the happiest if he can make good use of each age in his life.
小题4:What will the fourth paragraph most probably discuss following this passage?
A．Examples of successful young men.
B．How to build up one’s position in society.
C．Joys and pains of old people.
D．What to do when one has problems in life.

It is impossible without travelling in modern life. The fastest way of travelling is by plane. With a modern plane you can travel in one day to place which it took a month or more time to get a hundred years ago.
Travelling by train is slower than plane, but it has its advantages. You can see the country you are travelling through. Modern trains have comfortable seats and dining-cars. They make even the longest journey enjoyable.
Some people prefer to travel by sea when possible. There are large ships and river boats. You can visit many other countries and different places. Travelling by sea is a very pleasant way to spend a holiday.
Many people like to travel by car. You can make your own timetable. You can travel three or four hundred miles or only fifty or one hundred miles a day. You can stop wherever you wish, where there is something interesting to see, at a good restaurant where you can enjoy a good meal, or at a hotel to spend the night. That is why travelling by car is popular for trips, while people usually take a train or plane when they are travelling on business.
根据文章内容，判断正（A）误（B）。
小题1:The fastest way of travelling is by plane.
小题2:The seats are uncomfortable on trains.
小题3:It’s better to take a plane if you are on business.

That warm day was the only day of the week without rain. I opened the door, took a seat and began to enjoy the wonderful sunshine. Suddenly, I noticed that the house near mine had been sold. An elderly lady was in front of the door, with some beautiful flowers beside her. I walked to her. She looked to be in her early eighties and had the prettiest white hair.
“Hi! My name is Karmen,” I said smiling brightly at the old lady. She smiled back and said, “Hello, Karmen. I’m Henrietta.” Her voice was very strong for someone at her age. Later, I learned she was alone and had no family or relatives to help her. From that day on, I often visited her and helped her with her housework and sometimes she gave me some delicious food. A year passed, and I considered Henrietta to be one of my best friends.
One day, I walked over for my morning visit and knocked on the door, but there was no answer. I knocked again, and she still didn’ t turn up. So I let myself in, using the key she had given me. I checked her living room and then her kitchen. I finally went into her bedroom, and she was lying peacefully on her bed. Beside her there were two notes. One was her will, which said all that she had would be given to me. The other was a thank-you note. I went to her bedside and cried sadly.
Though several years have gone by, I still miss her deeply. Whenever I look at the beautiful flowers in front of her house, I remember the wonderful friendship we had.
