Around me, I find people of my age doing drugs, going to parties ----- just to “fit in”, just to gain attention. We’re so 36 being selfish, comparing ourselves to others, 37 unrealistic goals for ourselves, wanting to look prettier or lose more 38 , making more money, and being more popular.
But then I think, is that 39 what life’s all about? There are 40 kids out there, being abused, murdered, orphaned, and hungry. And here we are all 41 about how tough our lives are.
Most of us self-harm and are always depressed. Why do we always try to 42 away from our problems, 43 just face them? I mean this is life! You cannot get away from it, and you can definitely not 44 it.
All we can do is 45 what life gives us, and face our problems, face our difficulties, and face our frustrations. And maybe they’ll 46 your best friends, your companions. They’ll make you stronger, they’ll help you face reality and they’ll teach you to 47 the little things in life.
48 we always fail to look at the brighter side of things, we always fail to find happiness in little things. There are so many beautiful things 49 us that we seldom notice. Maybe that is 50 people don’t find happiness; we keep looking for it in the 51 places------ money, fame.
When we really go to “look” for happiness, what we all fail to 52 is that happiness isn’t really something that we can “find”. It’s not a destination; it’s not something you find along the road of life; it’s a(n) 53 , a feeling------ you can be happy wherever and whenever, only if you CHOOSE to be. Happiness is something within you, waiting to be found, waiting to 54 you company, waiting to help you 55 from this harsh reality.

I have only once been in trouble with the law．The whole process of being arrested and taken to court was a rather unpleasant experience at the time, but it makes a good story now． What makes it rather disturbing was the arbitrary （随意的） circumstances both of my arrest and my subsequent （随后的） fate in court．
It happened in February about twelve years ago．I had left school a couple of months before that and was not due to go to university until the following October．I was still living at home at the time．
One morning I was in Richmond, a suburb of London near where I lived．I was looking for a temporary job so that I could save up some money to go traveling．As it was a fine day and I was in no hurry, I was taking my time, looking in shop windows, strolling in the park, and sometimes just stopping and looking around me．It must have been this obvious ainilessness that led to my downfall．
It was about half past eleven when it happened．I was just walking out of the local library, having unsuccessfully sought employment there, when I saw a man walking across the road with the obvious intention of talking to me．I thought he was going to ask me the time．Instead, he said he was a police officer and he was arresting me．At first I thought it was some kind of joke．
But then another policeman appeared, this time in uniform, and I was left in no doubt．
'But what for? " I asked．
‘Wandering with intent to commit an arrestable offence,' he said．
‘What offence?' I asked．
'Theft,' he said．
'Theft of what?' I asked．
'Milk bottles,' he said, and with a perfectly straight face too!
'Oh,' I said．
It turned out there had been a lot of petty thefts in the area, particularly that of stealing milk bottles from doorsteps．
Then I made my big mistake．At the time I was nineteen, had long untidy hair, and regarded myself as pan of the sixties' 'youth counterculture'．As a result, I wanted to appear cool and unconcerned with the incident, so I said, 'How long have you been following me? in the most casual and conversational tone I could manage．I thus appeared to them to be quite familiar with this sort of situation, and it confirmed them in their belief that I was a thoroughly disreputable （品行不端的） character．
A few minutes later a police car arrived．
'Get in the back,' they said．'Put your hands on the back of the front seat and don't move them．'
They got in on either side of me．It wasn't funny any more．
At the police station they questioned me for several hours．I continued to try to look worldly and familiar with the situation．When they asked me what I had been doing, I told them I'd been looking for a job．'Aha,' I could see them thinking, 'unemployed'．
Eventually, I was officially charged and told to report to Richmond Magistrates' Court the following Monday．Then they let me go．
I wanted to conduct my own defense in court, but as soon as my father found out what had happened, he hired a very good solicitor （律师） ．We went along that Monday armed with all kinds of witnesses, including my English teacher from school as a character witness．But he was never called on to give evidence．My 'trial' didn't get that far．The magistrate （法官） dismissed the case after fifteen minutes．1 was free．The poor police had never stood a chance．The solicitor even succeeded in getting costs awarded against the police．
And so I do not have a criminal record．But what was most shocking at the time was the things my release from the charge so clearly depended on．I had the 'right' accent, respectable middle-class parents in court, reliable witnesses, and I could obviously afford a very good solicitor．Given the obscure nature of the charge．I feel sure that if I had come from a different background, and had really been unemployed, there is every chance that I would have been found guilty．While asking for costs to be awarded, my solicitor's case quite obviously revolved （回转） around the fact that I had a 'brilliant academic record'．
Meanwhile, just outside the courtroom, one of the policemen who had arrested me was gloomily complaining to my mother that another youngster had been turned against the police． 'You could have been a bit more helpful when we arrested you,' he said to me reproachfully （责备地） ．
What did he mean? Probably that I should have looked outraged （暴怒）and said something like, 'Look here, do you know who you're talking to? I am a highly successful student with a brilliant academic record．How dare you arrest me!' Then they, probably, would have apologized perhaps even taken off their caps, and let me on my way．
1.Judging from the first paragraph, the writer's attitude towards his story is _______．
A．angry B．sad
C．amused D．more than just one of the above
2.The first man who came up to him was ______．
A．a uniformed policeman B．a policeman in plainclothes
C．not a policeman D．a good joker
3.The court never asked the author's English teacher to give evidence because _______．
A．the time for the trial was limited to fifteen minutes only
B． the author wanted to conduct his own defense in court
C．the case was dismissed before the trial reached that stage
D．he was found to be unqualified as a character witness
4.The author believes that he would most probably have been declared guilty if _______．
A．the magistrate had been less gentle
B．he had really been out of work
C．he had been born in a lower—class family
D．both B and C
5.In the opinion of one of the policeman who had arrested the author, the whole thing might not have occurred if ______．
A．he had protested strongly at the time
B．he had begged to be allowed to go home
C．he hadn't wandered aimlessly
D．he had tried to look cool
6.We can see from the passage that the author ______．
A．has broken the law only once
B．has never broken the law
C．has broken the law on more than one occasion
D．once broke the law without knowing it

After Mom died, l began visiting Dad every morning before I went to work. He was frail and moved slowly, but he always had a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice on the kitchen table for me, along with an unsigned note reading," Drink your juice." Such a gesture, l knew, was as far as Dad had ever been able to go in expressing his love. In fact, l remember, as a kid I had questioned Mom "Why doesn't Dad love me?" Mom frowned, "Who said he doesn’t love you?" "Well, he never tells me, "I complained." He never tells me either," she said, smiling. " But look how hard he works to take care of us, to buy us food and clothes, and to pay for this house. That's how your father tells us he loves us. "
I nodded slowly. I understood in my head, but not in my heart. l still wanted my father to put his arms around me and tell me he loved me. Dad owned and operated a small scrap (片) metal business, and after school I often hung around while he worked. Dad handled scrap steel into a device that chopped it as cleanly as a butcher chops a rack of ribs. The machine looked like a giant pair of scissors, with blades thicker than my father's body. If he didn’t feed those terrifying blades just right, he risked serious injury. "Why don' t you hire someone to do that for you?" Mom asked Dad one night as she bent over him and rubbed his aching shoulders with a strong smelling liniment. "Why don’t you hire a cook?" Dad asked, giving her one of his rare smiles.
Many years later, during my first daily visit, after drinking the juice my father had squeezed for me. l walked over, hugged him and said, "I love you, Dad." From then on I did this every morning. My father never told me how he felt about my hugs, and there was never any expression on his face when I gave them.
1.What would be the best title for the passage?
A．My father never loved me B．I just couldn't understand my father

A．that was the author's favorite

C．the author was always complaining

3.The author’s father didn’t hire a helper because________. .
A．he wanted to save money

C．his job was too dangerous
D．he was not good at communicating with others
4.We may infer from the passage that _______.
A．the author's father lacked a sense of humor
B．the author's-father didn't love him very much
