    Superfast double?decker (双层) trains will be taking passengers from London to six big cities in the UK by 2033. The first phase (阶段) linking London to the West Midlands with a connection to HS1 is expected to open in 2026, and the second phase to Manchester and Leeds in 2032.

    The government set out a plan for the high?speed rail network in 2012. When the project is finished, it will take less time to get to London from major cities like Birmingham, Manchester and Leeds. Traveling at a speed of up to 250 mph, passengers will be able to come and go from Birmingham to London in 49 minutes, reducing the journey time by almost half from one hour and 24 minutes.

    A journey from Birmingham to Leeds will be reduced from two hours to 57 minutes and a journey from Manchester to London will be reduced from two hours and 8 minutes to one hour and 8 minutes.

    “HS2 is an important part of transport's low?carbon future,” Transport Secretary Justine Greening said. Some people aren't happy about the plan, though. HS2 will cost around ￡33 billion. It will also be built near some towns and villages, disturbing the people that live there.

    But the Chancellor of the Exchequer (财政大臣) George Osborne thinks it will help build the future for Britain. “It's a long?term decision，” he said.

    HS2 is designed for everything around the needs of the passengers. It will provide a new and exciting travel experience. There will be plenty of room, intelligent ticketing, a good service and high quality comfort and access to trains. This is a transport network for the new century and beyond.

    1.What's the UK's plan according to the passage?

    A. To buy some double?decker trains.

    B. To take passengers to Manchester from London.

    C. To build a high?speed train network.

    D. To collect ￡33 billion for the high?speed train network.

    2.How long does it usually take you to travel from Birmingham to London by the ordinary train?

    A. 49 minutes.B. One hour and 24 minutes.

    C. 57 minutes.D. Two hours and eight minutes.

    3.What can NOT be inferred from what Justine Greening and George Osborne said?

    A. HS2 is more important than HS1.

    B. Not all British people are happy about the plan.

    C. The British will benefit from the project in the future.

    D. The ￡33 billion will not be enough for the plan.

    4.The passage is most probably taken from ________.

    A. a novel B. a geography book

    C. a personal diary D. a newspaper

    When asked about happiness, we usually think of something extraordinary, an absolute delight, which seems to get rarer the older we get.

    For kids, happiness has a magical quality. Their delight at winning a race or getting a new bike is unreserved (毫无掩饰的).

    In the teenage years the concept of happiness changes. Suddenly it’s conditional on such things as excitement, love and popularity. I can still recall the excitement of being invited to dance with the most attractive boy at the school party.

    In adulthood the things that bring deep joy—love, marriage, birth—also bring responsibility and the risk of loss. For adults, happiness is complicated.

    My definition of happiness is “the capacity for enjoyment”. The more we can enjoy what we have, the happier we are. It’s easy to overlook the pleasure we get from the company of friends, the freedom to live where we please, and even good health.

    I experienced my little moments of pleasure yesterday. First I was overjoyed when I shut the last lunch-box and had the house to myself. Then I spent an uninterrupted morning writing, which I love. When the kids and my husband came home, I enjoyed their noise after the quiet of the day.

    Psychologists tell us that to be happy we need a mix of enjoyable leisure time and satisfying work. I don’t think that my grandmother, who raised 14 children, had much of either. She did have a network of close friends and family, and maybe this is what satisfied her.

    We, however, with so many choices and such pressure to succeed in every area, have turned happiness into one more thing we’ve got to have. We’re so self-conscious about our “right” to it that it’s making us miserable. So we chase it and equal it with wealth and success, without noticing that the people who have those things aren’t necessarily happier.

    Happiness isn’t about what happens to us—it’s about how we see what happens to us. It’s the skillful way of finding a positive for every negative. It’s not wishing for what we don’t have, but enjoying what we do possess.

    1.As people grow older, they ________.

    A. feel it harder to experience happiness

    B. associate their happiness less with others

    C. will take fewer risks in pursuing happiness

    D. tend to believe responsibility means happiness

    2.What can we learn about the author from Paragraphs 5 and 6?

    A. She cares little about her own health.

    B. She enjoys the freedom of traveling.

    C. She is easily pleased by things in daily life.

    D. She prefers getting pleasure from housework.

    3.What can be inferred from Paragraph 7?

    A. Psychologists think satisfying work is key to happiness.

    B. Psychologists’ opinion is well proved by Grandma’s case.

    C. Grandma often found time for social gatherings.

    D. Grandma’s happiness came from modest expectations of life.

    4.People who equal happiness with wealth and success ________.

    A. consider pressure something blocking their way

    B. stress their right to happiness too much

    C. are at a loss to make correct choices

    D. are more likely to be happy

    5.What can be concluded from the passage?

    A. Happiness lies between the positive and the negative.

    B. Each man is the master of his own fate.

    C. Success leads to happiness.

    D. Happy is he who is satisfied.

    Cars are everywhere. In big city and small towns, the preferred method of transportation is the automobile. People can get to where they need to go quickly and easy, and it has given a new kind of freedom to many people who may not have experienced it ago. But was driving really the best thing for our society? I argue that it is not. First, pollution was a serious problem, and more cars only make them worse. There is just not way to reduce pollution without decrease the number of cars on the road. Second, cars are very dangerous. Traffic accidents are responsible tens of thousands of deaths every year. Finally, cars are so expensive for most people to afford. However, that doesn’t stop low-income families from spending the most of their money to pay for the family car.
