    Happiness is important for everyone. Most people want to be happy, but few know how to find happiness. Here is a story to help you.

    Once a bird lived unhappily. So it traveled far away to look for its happiness.

    It flew and flew. Suddenly it saw a spider climbing up a wall. The spider fell off the wall halfway. But it kept climbing again and fell off again. Even so, the spider didn’t give up. The little bird asked the spider in surprise. “Why don’t you have pain but happiness on your face though you fail again and again?”

    “Because I keep making my efforts. I’m happy.” said the spider.

    Then the little bird saw it: happiness is a will in the heart.

    The bird continued flying and saw a lame duck help a little duck who got lost to find the way back home. Although it was disabled, it had a smiling face.

    “I’m happy because I can help others.” said the lame duck.

    So the bird saw it: happiness is a love in the heart.

    The bird went on flying and suddenly saw a little dying flower, whose face was full of smile. The bird didn’t know the reason. So it asked the little flower, “You’re going to die. Why are you still so happy?

    “Because my dream will come true,” said the little flower.

    “What is your dream?”

    “To produce sweet fruit.”

    The little bird saw it: happiness is a hope in the heart.

    So the little bird no more looked for happiness because it had seen the truth: happiness is not in the faraway place but in your own heart. You are the maker of your own happiness.

    B.The bird found happiness in the faraway place.

    C.The bird found happiness in its own heart.

    I am so worried about my son’s health that I can’t help writing to you. Last night, a school night, my 11-year-old son’s baseball team played a game that lasted until 9:30. By the time we got home and he had a quick dinner and shower, it was 10:30 — an hour and a half later than a child who gets up at 6:30 should be going to bed. We love baseball. My son is having fun, getting exercise, and learning patience, teamwork and sports spirit. But the truth is that the game also influences his sleep.

    As parents, we want good things for our children. We want them to be healthy both in body and in mind. To this end, we look for ways to help our kids grow and develop. We help them with their homework. We send them to all kinds of classes — dance, soccer and baseball. We encourage our kids to take honors courses (培优课程) or to have after-school jobs. And we praise them for hard-earned success and achievements.

    However, the ironic thing is that all of these activities and responsibilities that we are giving our children to make their lives colorful could be badly influencing their health and taking happiness away. Activities, responsibilities, and goals are good. But if we want our kids to realize their full physical, learning and social ability, sleep is important. We have to start taking sleep seriously.

    Parents make bedtime routines and carry out strict rules about nighttime. But in fact, these measures (措施) aren’t enough because getting our kids enough sleep isn’t just about carrying out (实行) stricter bedtime. It actually requires more than that. In order to ensure our kids get the sleep they need, both parents and schools should make an effort.

    1.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the first paragraph?

    A.The writer’s son spent too much time taking a shower.

    B.The kid who gets up at 6:30 am should go to bed at 8:30 pm.

    C.The writer’s son learns a lot and has a good time in the baseball team.

    2.From Paragraph 2, we know that parents ________.

    A.want the best for their children

    B.are able to teach their children to dance at home

    C.pay more attention to children’s mind than body

    3.What’s the best meaning of the underlined word “ironic” in the third paragraph?

    A.讽刺的 B.公平的 C.奇特的

    4.From the passage, we can infer that ________.

    A.activities and responsibilities are sure to make children unhealthy and unhappy

    B.not only parents but also schools have made efforts to help kids get enough sleep

    C.some children may not have enough sleep because of too many after-school activities

    5.What might happen if the headmaster read this letter?

    A.More after-school classes might be given to students.

    B.The school might make some rules to make sure students go to bed early.

    C.Parents might be advised to make their children’s lives more colorful.
