    As you move through life, you meet problems of all shapes and sizes. Some are hardly __21__ mentioning; while others are life-threatening or earth-shattering.

    No matter what the problem is, the gift it __28__ has a peculiar quality. It cannot be delivered __29__ into your consciousness or your awareness. You must actively choose to __30__ it and to accept it as your own. Only you can remove the wrapping, and only you can remove the gift from the box.

    Dogs are social animals and without proper training, they will behave like wild animals. They will soil your house, destroy your belongings, bark excessively, fight other dogs and even bite you. Nearly all behavior problems are perfectly normal dog activities that occur at the wrong time or place or are directed at the wrong thing. The key to preventing or treating behavior problems is learning to teach the dog to redirect its normal behavior to outlets that are acceptable in the domestic setting.
    　　One of the best things you can do for your dog and yourself is to train its obedience. Obedience training doesn’t solve all behavior problems, but it is the foundation for solving just about any problem. Training opens up a line of communication between you and your dog. Effective communication is necessary to instruct your dog about what you want it to do.
    Training is also an easy way to establish the social rank order. When your dog obeys a simple request of “come here, sit,” it is showing obedience and respect for you. It is not necessary to establish yourself as top dog or leader of the pack（群）by using extreme measure. You can teach your dog its subordinate（从属的）role by teaching it to show submission to you. Most dogs love performing tricks for you to
    pleasantly accept that you are in charge.
    　　Training should be fun and rewarding for you and your dog. It can enrich your relationship and make living together more enjoyable. A well-trained dog is more confident and can more safely be allowed a greater amount of freedom than an untrained animal.
    51. Behavior problems of dogs are believed to _______.
    A. be just part of their nature
    　 B. worsen in modern society
    　 C. occur when they go wild
    　 D. present a threat to the community
    52. The primary purpose of obedience training is to _______.
    　 A. teach the dog to perform clever tricks
    　 B. make the dog aware of its owner’s authority
    　 C. provide the dog with outlets for its wild behavior
    　 D. enable the dog to regain its normal behavior
    53. Effective communication between a dog and its owner is _______.
    　 A. essential to solving the dog’s behavior problems
    　 B. the foundation for dogs to perform tasks
    　 C. a good way to teach the dog new tricks
    　 D. an extreme measure in obedience training
    54. Why do pet dogs love performing tricks for their masters?
    　 A. To avoid being punished.
    　 B. To show their affection for their masters.
    　 C. To win leadership of the dog pack.
    　 D. To show their willingness to obey.
    55. When a dog has received effective obedience training, its owner _______.
    　 A. can give the dog more rewards
    　 B. will enjoy a better family life
    　 C. can give the dog more freedom
    　 D. will have more confidence in himself

    One dark and stormy night, an elderly man and his wife entered the hall of a small hotel in Philadelphia, hoping to get shelter for the night.
    The clerk, a friendly man with a beautiful smile, explained that there were three conferences in town. “All of our rooms are taken,” the clerk said, “but I can't send a nice couple like you into the rain at one o’clock in the morning. Would you perhaps be willing to sleep in my room? It’s not a suite, but it will be good enough to make you comfortable for the night.” The couple agreed.

    阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
    Everybody has had at least one experience from which he knows the meaning of life. This time, which took place several years ago, but seems as if it just happened.
    On an afternoon several years ago, my brother-in-law opened the bottom drawer of my sister’s dress and picked out a beautiful skirt. “ Jan bought this the first time we went to New York, at least 8 or 9 years ago. She never wore it. She was saving it for a special occasion.” he said．I guess this was the occasion: it was the funeral of my sister, after her unexpected death.
    He took the shirt and put it on bed, with the other clothes we were taking to the funeral. Then he closed the drawer and turned to me, “Don’t ever save anything for a special occasion. Every day you’re alive is a special occasion.”
    I’m thinking about his words, and they’ve changed the way I live my life. I’m spending more time with my family and friends and less time in committee meetings. Whenever possible, life should be a kind of experience to enjoy, not to suffer. “Someday ”and “one of these days ”are losing their importance  on my vocabulary. If it’s worth seeing or hearing or doing, I want to see and hear and do it now.
    Ever since that day, I have been trying very hard not to put off, hold back or save anything that would add laughter and color to our lives. Every morning when I open my eyes, I tell myself that every day, every minute, every breath, truly is a gift. So cherish every day and find the true meaning of your life.
    56．Why did Jan buy the beautiful skirt but didn’t wear it?
    A．She waited for a special occasion to wear it on.

    C．She saved it till she grew up.
    D．She would give it to herself as a gift some day.
    57．What does the underlined word “cherish” mean?

    B．every day in our lives is worth cherishing
    C．enjoying ourselves is the most important thing in our lives
    D．everybody will have some things left to do after his death

    C．To tell people to cherish every day and find the meaning of life.

    The secret of happiness is to spend around ￡2.50 every day on somebody else.
    To give a couple of pounds each day rather than to spend it on treats and fashion for yourself is the key to happiness, according to a new study.
    Dr Elizabeth Dunn and her colleagues who did a national survey of 630 people in the United States found that people report greater happiness if they spend money more socially. That means spending on gifts for others or on charitable(慈善的) donations rather than spending on themselves.
    "We wanted to test our theory that how people spend their money is at least as important as how much money they earn," says Dunn, who reports the work in Science.
    The results from all three lines of research are quite the same.
    "Regardless of how much income each person made," says Dunn, "those who spent money on others reported greater happiness, while those who spent more on themselves did not."
    "Making a modest donation is enough to increase people's happiness" the researchers conclude.
    "These findings suggest that a very small change in spending, as little as ￡2.50, may be enough to produce real gains in happiness on a given day," says Dr Dunn.
    The researchers call on governments to encourage people to spend more on others to help translate increased national wealth into increased national happiness.
    Surveys have also shown that happiness levels have remained almost flat within developed countries even as incomes have increased in recent decades.
    65.According to the survey, what kind of people have greater happiness?
    A.People who can make enough money.
    B.People who can buy whatever they want.
    C.People who spend money on treats and fashion for themselves.
    D.People who spend a modest amount of money every day on others.
    66.The underlined word "flat" probably means______.
    A.smooth       B.dull     C.same    D.interesting
    67.Which of the following statements is true?
    A.Researchers pay no attention to spending on others.
    B.The government did much in helping others.
    C."Science" in Paragraph 4 is probably a magazine.
    D.The survey is very successful.
    68.The purpose of the writer is to tell us______.
    A.the secret of happiness.      B.money spent on friends.
    C.link between money and happiness.   D.difference between national wealth and happiness.
