When I was small, my mum used to give the family something special for meals — she would make breakfast food for dinner.
I still remember one night my mum put some bread in front of my dad, something very burnt. I waited to see if anybody noticed. To my surprise, my dad just took his , smiled at my mum and then turned to ask me how my day at school had been. I’ve forgotten what I told him that night. I do remember watching him put some butter on that bread. He as usual, every single bit.
After dinner, my mum said sorry to my dad for burning the bread. And I never forget what he said, “I burnt bread, dear. It doesn’t matter at all. ”
, I went to kiss Dad good night.I asked him if he really liked his bread burnt. He held me in arms and , “Your mum worked very hard all day. She"s really tired. And you see—a bit of burnt food never hurt anyone!”
Now I know life is not perfect. is perfect, either. As for me, I often forget birthdays or some other special days. But I’ve learned something over these years. What we really need is the understanding of each other, whether between a husband and wife, a parent and child or just between two friends. This is the key to a happy .
So don’t get angry if the bread gets burnt. Remember, bread never hurt anyone. Be kind to those around you and a happier life will surely come closer to you.

He looked through the doorway h his lifted high and his tail wagging as fast as it could. To his great , he found himself staring at 1000 other happy little dogs with their tails wagging just as fast as his. He smiled a great smile, and was with 1000 great smiles. As he left the House, he thought to himself, “This is a very place. I will come back and visit it .”
In the same village, another little dog, who was not quite as as the first one, decided to visit the house. He slowly climbed the stairs and hung his head low as he into the door. When he saw the 1000 unfriendly-looking dogs staring back at him , he growled at them and was horrified to see 1000 little dogs growling back at him. As he left, he thought to himself, “That is a horrible place, and It will never go back again.”

Do you like chocolate? Most people do. A box of it can be a great gift. Buy one for a friend and give it to them as a surprise. See how happy that person becomes.
Say you just got a box of chocolate. Which piece do you pick first?
A man has studied people’s choices. He says that they tell us something about the person. Did you choose a round piece? You are a person who likes to go to the party.

When something goes wrong, it can be very satisfying to say, “Well, it’s so-and-so’s mistake.” or “I know I’m late, but it’s not my mistake; the bus was late.” It is probably not your mistake, but once you form the habit of blaming somebody or something else for a bad situation, you are a loser. You have no power and could do nothing that helps change the situation. However, you can have great power over what happens to you if you stop paying attention to whom to blame and start paying attention to how to improve the situation. This is the winner’s key to success.
Winners are great at overcoming(克服) problems. For example, if you were late because the bus was late, maybe you need to leave home early. Or, you might call a taxi or call friends for help when in need. For another example, if your workmate causes you problems on the job for short of responsibility(责任心) or ability, find ways of dealing with his irresponsibility or inability rather than simply blame the person. Ask to work with a different person, or leave this person with some simple jobs. You should accept that the person is not reliable(可靠的) and find creative ways to work successfully regardless of how your workmate fails to do his job well.
This is what being a winner is all about—creatively using your skills and talents so that you are successful no matter what happens. Winners don’t have fewer problems in their lives; they have just as many difficult situations to face as anybody else. They are just better at seeing those problems as challenges(挑战) and chances to develop their own talents. So, stop paying attention to “whose mistake it is.” Once you are confident about your power over bad situations, problems are just stepping stones for success.
小题1:According to the passage, winners .| A．have responsible and able workmates | | B．meet with fewer difficulties in their lives | | C．blame themselves rather than others | | D．deal with problems rather than blame others |
小题2:When your workmate brings about a problem, you should .| A．blame him for his lack of responsibility | | B．find a better way to overcome the problem | | C．tell him to find the cause of the problem | | D．ask a more able workmate for help |
小题3:When problems happen, winners take them as .| A．excuses for their mistakes | | B．difficulties to greater power | | C．chances for self-development | | D．challenges to their workmates |
小题4:Which of the following is the best title for the passage？| A．A Winner’s Secret | B．A Winner’s Problem | | C．A Winner’s Chance | D．A Winner’s Achievement |

Life comes in a package. This package includes happiness and sadness, failure and success, hope and despair. Life is a learning process. Experiences in life teach us new lessons and make us a better person. With each passing day we learn to deal with various situations.
Love plays a main role in our life. Love makes you feel wanted. Without love a person could become cruel. In the early stage of our life, our parents are the ones who show us with love and care. They teach us about what is right and wrong, good and bad. But we don’t always care about it. It is only after marriage and having kids that a person understands others’ feelings.
Happiness can bring people a peaceful mind. No mind is happy without peace. Sadness is the cause of the death of a loved one or the failure. But all of these things will pass away.
Failure is the path to success. It helps us to touch the sky, teaches us to survive and shows us a specific way. Success brings in money, pride and self-respect.
Hope is what keeps life going. Parents always hope their children will do well. Hope makes us dream. Hope builds in patience. Life teaches us not to despair even in the darkest hour, because after every night there is a day.
Life teaches us not to regret over yesterday, for it has passed and is out of our control. Tomorrow is unknown, for it could either be bright or dark. So the only choice is to work hard today, so that we will enjoy a better tomorrow.
小题1:We usually have to accept _______ if we want to be successful.| A．love | B．failure | C．sadness | D．hope |
小题2:In which section can readers probably read the passage?| A．Business. | B．Travel. | C．Lifestyles. | D．Education. |
小题3:What does the word “despair” mean in Chinese?小题4:What’s the meaning of the last sentence of the whole passage?| A．When choosing between “today” and “tomorrow”, you’d better enjoy tomorrow. | | B．If you work hard today, you’ll have a better life in the future. | | C．What you can only choose is to work hard today rather than tomorrow. | | D．The only choice you make is that you should enjoy a better tomorrow. |
小题5:What’s the purpose of the passage?| A．To encourage people to love each other. | | B．To tell people how to deal with happiness and sadness. | | C．To give readers some information about life. | | D．To remind people to keep having a beautiful dream. |

When my son, Mark, was in the third grade, he saved all his pocket money（零用钱） for over three months to buy holiday presents. The third Saturday in December Mark said he had made his list and had twenty dollars in his pocket.
I drove him to a nearby supermarket. Mark picked up a hand basket and went in while I waited and watched in the car. It took Mark over 45 minutes to choose his presents.

Then a surprising thing happened.
