分析 在大雨瓢泼的时候,全班同学都在寻找这个失踪的孩子.

8.I live in the land of Disney,Hollywood and year-round sun.You may think People in such an attractive,fun-filled place are happier than others.If so you have some mistaken ideas about the nature of happiness.
Many intelligent people still think fun equals happiness.The truth is that fun and happiness have little or nothing in common.Fun is what we experience during an act.Happiness is what we experience after an act.It is a deep,long-lasting emotion.
Going to an amusement park or a ball game,watching a movie or television are fun activities that help us relax,temporally forget our problems and maybe even laugh.But they do not bring happiness,because their positive effects end when the fun ends.
I have often thought that if Hollywood stars have a role to play,it is to teach us that happiness has nothing to do with fun.They have constant access to exciting parties,fancy cars,expensive homes,everything that spells"happiness"But in memoir(回忆录) after memoir,they expose the unhappiness hidden beneath all their fun:depression,alcoholism,drug addiction,broken marriages and loneliness.
Ask a bachelor why he resists marriage even though he finds dating to be less and less satisfying.If he is honest,he will tell you that he is afraid of making a commitment(承诺).For commitment is in fact quite painful.The single life is filled with fun,adventure and excitement.Marriage has such moments,but they are not its most distinguishing features.
Similarly,couples that choose not to have children are deciding in favor of painless fun over painful happiness.They can dine out whenever they want and sleep as late as they want.Couples with babies are lucky to get a whole night's sleep.I don't know any parent who would choose the word fun to describe raising children.
Understanding and accepting that true happiness has nothing to do with fun is one of the most liberating realizations we can ever come to.It liberates time:now we can devote more hours to activities that can truly increase our happiness.It liberates money:buying that new car or those fancy clothes that will do nothing to increase our happiness now seems pointless.And it frees us from envy:we now understand that all those rich and famous people we were so sure are happy because they are always having so much fun actually may not be happy at all.
63.What is the passage mainly about?C
A.Marriage and commitment.       
B.Success and satisfaction.
C.Fun and happiness.             
D.Entertainment and responsibility.
64.The author probably agrees thatD.
A.fun creates long-lasting satisfaction
B.long-standing fun may lead to happiness
C.fun provides enjoyment while pain leads to happiness
D.fun is short-lived while happiness is long-lasting
65.What does the author think of marriage?B
A.It ends in pain.               
B.It means commitment.
C.It affords greater fun.                          
D.It leads to raising children.
66.If one gets the real meaning of happiness,heA.
A.won't place too much value on money 
B.will start a business
C.will seek for freedom              
D.won't devote himself to his family.

18.The most detailed breakdown(分析) of ethnic and gender performance in national curriculum tests for 7,11 and 14-year-olds shows that Chinese pupils do best in every subject at every age.Chinese and Indian pupils outperformed white British children in English tests for 11-year-olds.In all,83% of Chinese students reached the required standard compared with 78% of Indian pupils and 75% of white UK pupils and only 65% of Bangladeshi children reaching level four,the standard that an 11-year-old should achieve.

The years kept their secret,but the day did come.He stood with his father over his mother's casket(棺材).Slowly,tenderly,the father reached out and raised the thick,reddish brown hair to show the mother had no outer ears.

2.When I first saw the book Alice in Lace,I thought I was going to like it.And as it turned out,I love it!I love books about life and being a kid.And Alice in Lace is just that kind.It's a humorous book about being thirteen and the problems kids might face.Alice and her friends get a strange assignment from their totally cool teacher,Mr.Everett.It was like playing the game of"Life,"but you had to act it out.
So Pamela is pregnant,Elizabeth buys a car and Alice gets married.Well,of course,Pamela wasn't really pregnant,but she walked around with a pillow under her shirt to get people's reactions.Elizabeth didn't really buy a car,but she went to the car lot and made the sales guy think she was.The whole class got assignments like these!I would love to do something like that for school.
In the book Alice has a lot to think about."Getting married is hard!"Alice says.She has to plan the ceremony,the honeymoon,find a place to live,pay for furniture and two months'rent and food.Maybe she and her"husband"could work it out-if they were getting on fine!
Although this book was funny,it really made me think about how problems like these could really mess up your life.Take teenage pregnancy for example.How could you have a baby and stay in school?You couldn't find a babysitter every day to stay with your kid.A child really consumes your life.I understand what the teacher was trying to do.He was trying to discourage the class from getting into these problems by giving them a glimpse of life.As someone about to become a teenager myself,I can say sometimes a story makes you think about what's up ahead.
Overall,I would say this book is wonderful.My favorite part of the book is discovering that if I like it,there are seven other Alice books I can check out at my local library.I love this book,and I hope you will too.
59.We can infer from the passage that Pamela,Elizabeth and AliceB.
A.turn out to be the author's classmates
