    I found the imagination of becoming a grandmother somewhat discouraging. I was younger than I thought a grandmother should be when I got the news that I was going to become one myself. I admit, it was not a role that I was emotionally ready to accept. I had been a young mother, and had certainly hoped my daughter would not face that same challenge. I remarried when she was a teenager, and then had two more children. On getting the news that she was expecting, I remember thinking “What do I know about being a grandmother? —I haven’t even finished raising my own kids yet!” I don’t like to be unprepared, so I read a few books about grandparenting. That gave me a little help, but I was still uncertain. I thought about other grandmothers I knew, and got a few ideas I liked and a few more that I didn't. But I couldn't quite figure out what kind of grandmother I wanted to be. Then I thought about my own grandmother, Granny, as she’s known by most people, and I knew I had the answer.

    I didn’t realize it until that moment, but my own grandmother was the example for the kind of grandmother I wanted to be. I am fortunate that I got to spend a lot of time with my grandparents when I was a little kid. Here's what I learned from my Granny：

    Grandmothers always have a cookie jar. For my entire life, Granny always had a cookie jar full of cookies. When I was a little tiny girl, just at eye level with the counter, Granny would get the cookie jar down for me. When I was a little older I learned how to pull the chair over so I could reach. As I got taller, if I really stretched, I could reach the cookie jar with my finger tips and move it close enough to get it down off the counter to find out what kind of treat was inside. Always the first thing I did when I went to Granny 's house was check the cookie jar and there were always cookies in it. Many years later, I’ll drive my own children to Granny’s house and the first thing Pd do is get us all a cookie.

    So grandmothers must have a cookie jar and on my granddaughte’ s first Christmas, my daughter bought me my own cookie jar. She said when they came to see me, her daughter would find the treat the way she did and I did.

    The writer thought it was a little discouraging to be a grandmother because________.

    A.  she was not old enough to be one

    B.  she was not emotionally ready to be one

    C.  she thought her daughter was too young to be a mother

    D.  grandmother should be older than she was

    The underlined phrase “that same challenge ” in the first paragraph refers to” ________”

    A. taking care of a grandchild  B. taking care of a baby

    C. being a young grandmother    D. being a young mother

    It can be inferred from the last paragraph that________.

    A.  the writer has many happy memories of her grandmother’s cookie jar

    B.  the writer always wanted to know what was inside her grandmother’s cookie jar

    C.  the writer often drove her grandchildren to see her grandmother’s cookie jar

    D.  women   of the writer ‘s age all have a cookie jar for their grandchildren

    What kind of grandmother did the writer want to be?

    A.  One who has a jar filled with many kinds of cookies for children and herself.

    B.  One who grows up with her grandmother's cookie jar with all kinds of cookies.

    C.  One who is like her own grandmother with a cookie jar to treat her grandchildren.

    D.  One who always makes different kinds of cookies to treat her grandchildren.

    Which of the following can be the best title of this text?

    A.  Grandmother’s Cookie Jar                 B.Grandmother’s Treat for Children

    C.  Grandmothers and Grandchildren          D. Happy Memories of Cookies

    In Kansas City, Missouri, a computer helps fire fighters. The computer contains information about every one of the 35000 street addresses in the city.

    Writer Jean Stafford scoffed, “Happy  people don't need to have fun,” but studies show that the absence of feeling bad isn’t enough to make you feel good；you must try hard to find sources of feeling good. Research shows that regularly having fun is a key factor in having a happy life；people who have fun are 20 times more likely to feel happy.

        Recently, I noticed a pattern among activities that people find fun：Have a mission. There’s something about having a playful purpose，of trying to achieve something that makes an activity more fun.

        For example a friend told that she loved visiting flea markets（旧货市场）and antique stores to look for old globes-not fancy ones，but cheap ones. She has a rule that she'll never pay more than＄20. She’s the kind of person who loves wandering around in those kinds of shops in any case，but having a mission makes it more fun, less aimless.

       For that matter，having a collection of any sort is a very popular way to have a mission. You get satisfaction whenever you find another piece of blue sea glass on the beach or another out-of-print book by Charlotte Yonge in an old bookstore.

       Taking photos is a common way to incorporate(使并入) a mission into traveling. Not only does this help keep memories vivid, it also makes you more attuned（协调一致）to your environment while traveling. For example，during my most recent visit to New Haven，I had a lot more fun wandering around once I set myself the mission of taking tourist photos of my own romance.

        Why is this true? The First Splendid Truth holds that to be happier，you have to think about feeling good and feeling right，in an atmosphere of growth. The more I’ve thought about happiness，the more surprised I’ve been at the importance of the “atmosphere of growth.” I think this is a huge engine of happiness, and when you have a mission, you create an atmosphere of growth whenever you pursue that mission.

        Have you found a way to have a mission? What is it and does it boost your happiness?

    1.. According to the author, happy people____

    A. don't need to have fun

    B. don't have to be occupied with work

    C. can have 20 times more fun than others

    D. are always finding sources of feeling good

    2.. What does the underlined phrase “Having a mission" mean in paragraph 2？

    A. Have fun.                                          B. Join in an activity.

    C. Find something interesting to do.                D: Hunting for a job.

    3. The author explains the key factor in having a happy life by____.

    A. making a comparison                         B. presenting numbers

    C. stating common sense                      D. using examples

    4.. What will be probably the best title?

    A. How to live happily

    B. Where to look for fun

    C. The importance of feeling good

    D. Having a mission can make you happier
