阅读理解。     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 the 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 (标题) of the passage is _____. [     ]
A. Money Makes You Happy
B. The Secrets of Happiness
C. Ideas for Helping Other People to Be Happy
D. Good Friends Make You Happy 2. The second paragraph tells us that _____. [     ]
A. the more friends you have, the happier you will be
B. we shouldn"t think about our future
C. happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life
D. some people fail to live a happy life 3. The passage gives us _____ pieces of advice on happiness.[     ]
A. one
B. two
C. three
D. four 4. 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 5. 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.

完形填空。     Life is not easy, so I"d like to say "When anything happens, believe in yourself." When
I was a young boy, I was    1   shy to talk to anyone. My classmates often    2 me. I was
sad but could do nothing. Later,    3   happened, and it changed my life. It was an English
speech contest. My mother asked me to    4   it. What a terrible idea! It meant I had to
speak before all the teachers and students of my school.
     "Come on, boy. Believe in yourself. You are sure to    5   the contest." Then mother and
I talked about many different topics. At last I chose the topic "Believe in yourself." I tried
my best to remember all the speech and practiced it over 100    6   . With my mother"s great
love, I did    7   in the contest. I could hardly believe my ears when the news came that I
had won the first place, I heard the cheers    8   the teachers and the students. Those
classmates    9   once looked down on (看不起) me, now all said "Congratulations!" to me.
My mother hugged me and cried excitedly.
     Since then, everything has changed for me. When I do anything, I try to tell   10    to
be sure and I will find myself. This is not only for a person but also for a country.

if the eye was taken out, my face would become out of    2    , so my scarred (有疤痕的),
blind and grey eye lived on with me.
