    We convince ourselves that life will be better once we are married, have a baby, then another. Then we get frustrated because our children are not old enough, and that __1__ will be well when they are older. Then we are frustrated __2__ they reach adolescence and we must deal with them. Surely we’ll be __3__ when they grow out of the teen years.
    We tell ourselves our __4__ will be better when our spouse(配偶)gets his/her act together, when we have a nicer car, when we can take a __5__， when we finally retire. The truth is that there is no better time to be happy than __6__.If not, then when? Your life will always be full of challenges. It is better to admit as much and to decide to be happy __7__it all. For the longest time, it seemed that life was about to start—real life.
    But there were always some obstacles along the way, an ordeal(苦难) to __8__， some work to be finished, some time to be given, a bill to be __9__.Then life would start. It finally dawned on me that those __10__ were part of life. Little by little, that point of __11__ also helped me see that there isn’t any road to happiness.
    Happiness is the road. So, enjoy every moment. And bear in mind that __12__ waits for no one. So stop __13__ school to end, for a return to school, to lose ten pounds, to __14__ ten pounds, for work to begin, to get married，...before deciding to be happy.
    Happiness is a voyage, not a destination. There is no __15__ time to be happy than...NOW! Live and enjoy the moment.

    Mr. Hadley was my 6th grade teacher. I was a tall thin girl weighing barely a hundred pounds. I ended up taking a lot of  36 especially from the boys, because of my appearance. I became an extremely  37 young lady.

    When my turn came, I  41 to stand up in front of all those students and  42 to their tricks. Mr. Hadley came over to me and again  43 me to read my report. I gave it back to him. He walked to the front of the  44 and said, "Yvonne has a very good report here and I think everyone  45 to hear her read it. If I hear anyone making  46 noises or making fun of her in any way, I will let you fail right here and now. Understood?"
    Mr. Hadley walked back to me and  47 me the paper, asking me to go to the front of the class. I walked to the front of the class on legs  48 were shaking and I felt a(n)  49 in my chest. Everyone were all quiet, including those boys. I stood there trying to gain  50 .

    From that day on the kids never made fun of me again and some  54 made friends with me. I continued to be quite shy all through school  55 from that day on I knew if I had to stand up in front of class again. I could do it.

    The clothes you wear. The food you eat. The color of your bedroom walls. Where you go and how you get there. The people you hang around with. What time you go to bed. What do these things have in common, you’re asking? They’re just a few examples of the many hundreds of things that your parents controlled for you when you were a child.
    As a kid, you didn’t have a say in everything; your parents made decisions about everything from the cereal you ate in the morning to the pajamas you wore at night. And it’s a good thing, too—kids need this kind of protection on their own.
    But finally, kids grow up and become teens. And part of being a teen is developing your own identity—one that is separate from your parents’. But as you change and grow into this new person who makes his own decisions, your parents have a difficult time adjusting(调整).
    In many families, it is this adjustment that can cause a lot of fighting between teens and parents. And issues like the type of friends you have or your attitudes to partying can cause bigger arguments, because your parents still always want to protect you and keep you safe, no matter how old you are.
    The good news about fighting with your parents get more comfortable with the idea that their teen has a right to certain opinions. It can take several years for parents and teens to adjust to their new roles, though. In the meantime, focus on communicating with your parents.
    Sometimes this can feel impossible—like they just don’t see your point of view and never will. But talking and expressing your opinions can help you gain more respect from your parents.
    Keep in mind, too, that your parents were teens once and that in most cases, they can relate to what you’re going through.
    小题1:In the first two paragraphs, the writer________.
    A．complains that parents control kids too much.
    B．proves that kids have no right to give their opinions.
    C．describes how carefully parents look after kids
    D．explains that it is necessary for parents to control kids
    小题2:A lot of fighting breaks out between teens and parents because________.
    A．parents aren’t used to losing control of kids
    B．teens like to have everything decided
    C．parents blame teens for not respecting them
    D．teens are eager to develop their own identity
    小题3:In the opinions of the writer, parents control teens in order to ________.
    A．prevent them from having their own ideas
    B．protect them from being hurt
    C．make them respect parents in family
    D．make sure that children have a good future.
    小题4:The underlined word “this” in paragraph 6 may refer to “________”.
    A．arguing with friends
    B．fighting with your parents
    C．communicating with parents
    D．adjusting to new roles
    小题5:What might be the most suitable title for the passage?
    A．What do parents control their children for?
    B．How parents take are of children?
    C．How to get rid of your parents’ control?
    D．Why do I fight with parents so much?

    Some people argue that the pressures on international sportsmen and sportswomen kill the essence(本质) of sport-seeking for personal excellence. Children kick a football around for fun. When they get older and play for local school teams, they become competitive but they still enjoy playing. A single person’s representing his country cannot afford to think about enjoying himself; he has to think only about winning. He is responsible for an entire nation’s hopes, dreams and fame.
    A good example is the football World Cup. Football is the world’s most important sport. It is even more important now that the United States is seriously taking it up. Winning the World Cup is perhaps the greatest of international sporting success. Mention “Argentina” to someone and the chances are that he’ll think of football. In a sense, winning the World Cup “put Argentina on the map”.
    Sports fans and supporters get quite irrational(失去理性的) about the World Cup. People in England felt that their country was somehow important after they won in 1996. Last year thousands of Scots sold their cars, and even their houses and spent all their money traveling to Argentina where the finals were played.
    So am I arguing that international competition kills the idea of sports? Certainly not! Do the Argentineans really believe that because eleven of their men proved that most skillful at football, their nation is in every way better than all others? Not really. But it’s known that you won, and that in one way at least your country is best.
    小题1:What is the writer’s main purpose in the passage?
    A．To explain the role of sport
    B．To compare Scotland with Argentina
    C．To show that Argentina is better than all others.
    D．To prove that football is the world’s most important sport.
    小题2:According to the passage, Argentina is world famous because of its ____.
    A． clear position on the map
    B． successes in the football World Cup
    C． excellence at all important sports
    D．large number of sports fans and supporters
    小题3:According to the passage, if a sportsman thinks about winning, he will ____.
    A．be irrationalB．be successful
    C．fail to succeedD．lose enjoyment
    小题4:What is the writer’s attitude towards international games?
    A．Nations that meet on football are unlikely to meet on a battle field.
    B．Nations that win in international games prove best on the sports field at least.
    C．Nations that win the football World Cup are considered as best in all ways.
    D．Nations that give much attention to international competitions are world-famous in many ways.
    小题5: From this passage, we can infer that ____.
    A．We should learn from England
    B．We should play football only for fun, not for fame
    C．We should learn from Argentina
    D．We should give chances for other countries to win the World Cup

    It took courage to stand up at work. Now more and more people like to have a change and stand up when they are on something important. Standing up is popular. Medical researchers have found that people who stand at work tend to be much healthier than those who sit.
    In the last few years, many office supply companies have begun to sell the adjustable- height desk. These so- called “ sit/ stand” models are equipped with an electric motor that lets them shift from chair height to person height at the push of a button. Unfortunately, they’re regarded as specially furniture. Sit/ stand desks tend to be expensive, hard to find and not easy to test it in person.
    When you worked standing up, your mind was more excited and new ideas kept coming out. This is because when you’re standing, you feel a bit unchained from your desk. If you got stuck on a word or sentence as you wrote, you found yourself shaking your arms, bouncing on your feet or stepping away from the desk for a bit------ things you couldn’t do in a chair. Often, standing up seemed to relax your mind enough for you to get over creative barriers.
    There’s one other thing about standing for a long time;  you tended to get hungrier than you do when you sit on a chair. That felt like confirmation of the stand-up advocates’ belief that you burn more calories when you stand than when you sit. For this reason alone, I’m hoping that sit/ stand desks one day hit the mainstream, with mass- market furniture companies making many low- priced versions. We could all do with a bit more standing up.
    小题1:We can learn that the adjustable- height desk is_______.
    A．easy to findB．easy to test
    C．relatively cheapD．smart in operation
    小题2:According to para.3, standing up while working ______.
    A．tends to make us much healthier
    B．get us distracted from the work at hand
    C．can make us relaxed and be creative
    D．make us move about and unfocused
    小题3:The underlined word “ unchained” in para.3 means “_______”
    A．freeB．tiredC．uneasyD．Unbalanced
