10.There are two types of people in the world.Although they have equal degree of health and wealth and other comforts of life,one becomes happy,the other becomes unhappy.This results from the different ways in which they consider things,persons,events and the resulting effects upon their minds.People who are to be happy fix their attention on the convenience of things:the pleasant parts of conversation,the well prepared dishes,the goodness of the wine,the fine weather.They enjoy all the cheerful things.Those who are to be unhappy think and speak only of the opposite things.Therefore,they are continually dissatisfied.By their words,they sour the pleasure of society,offend (hurt) many people,and make themselves unwelcome everywhere.If this state of mind is founded in nature,such unhappy person would be the more to be shown sympathy.The intention(意图) of criticizing(批评) and being disliked is perhaps taken up by imitation(模仿).It grows into a habit,unknown to its owners.The habit may be strong,but it may be cured when those who have it realize its bad effects on their interests and tastes.I hope this little warning may be of service to them,and help them change this habit.
Although in fact it is chiefly an act of the imagination,it has serious results in life since it brings about deep sorrow and bad luck.Those people hurt many others.Nobody loves them,and no one treats them with more than the most common politeness and respect.This often puts them in a bad mood and draws them into arguments.If they want to get some advantages in social position or money,nobody wishes them success.Nor will anyone start a step of speaking a word to favor their hopes.If they bring on themselves public objections(反对),no one will defend or excuse them,and many will join to crticize their wrong doings.These should change this bad habit and be pleased with what is pleasing,without worrying needlessly about themselves and others.If they do not,it will be good for others to avoid any contact with them.

24.People who are unhappyA.
A.always see the unpleasant side of certain things
B.are usually born with the criticizing qualities.
C.usually misunderstand what others think or say
D.always dislike and quarrel with happy people
25.The phrase"sour the pleasure of society"most nearly means"C".
A.have a good taste with social life
B.tend to praise others openly
C.make others unhappy
D.enjoy the pleasure of life
26.We can conclude from the passage thatB.
A.we should pity all such unhappy people
B.people can get rid of the habit of unhappiness
C.such unhappy people are dngerous to social life
D.unhappy people can not understand happy person
27.If such unhappy person insists on keeping the habit,the author suggests people shouldD.
A.quarrel with them until they realize it
B.show no respect and politeness to them
C.help them to recognize the bad effects
D.prevent any communication with them.

18.When I was in my fourth year of teaching,I was also (and am still) a high school track and field coach(田径教练).One year,I had a student,John,who entered my class when he was a junior.John changed to our school from Greece,and seemed to be interested in sports,so I encouraged him to join our track team.I explained to him that even though he had never taken part in it before,I did believe that he could do well in any event,and I would be willing to coach him at whichever ones interested him.He accepted the offer,and began to work hard at every practice.
About a month later,I had found out from other sources that John was a first-class tennis player,winning vaious junior awards in his home country.I went to him asking,"John,I really appreciate that you came out for the track team,but why didn't you play tennis instead?It seems that would interest you a lot more,since you're so good at it."John answered,"Well,I like tennis,but you told me that you believed in me,and that you thought I could do well in track,so I wanted to try it for that reason."
From then on,I often remember my student's reply.I told it to a friend and she suggested I write it down to share somewhere with more teachers.No matter how critical (不满的) students can be of them-selves,I've found that a simple"I trust that you can do it!"can go a long way!

21.The passage is mainly written forA.
A.tachers B.parents C.students D.players
22.According to Paragraph 1,the author seems to think more about John'sC
A.PE marks    B.self-confidence   C.interest in sports   D.state of health
23.Why did John take part in the track team?B
A.He had been an excellent runner.
B.He was encouraged by his teacher.
C.He liked running more than tennis.
D.He had no tennis coach to train him.
24.The purpose of this passage is probablyD.
A.to build a close teacher-student relationship
B.to introduce a new way of sports training
C.to explain the value of sports and games
D.to show the importance of encouragement.

Then she turned to me,kissed me,and said calmly,"Honey,you just have to learn how to take control."With that,she left the room.
