So it was a great honour to be invited backstage at the not-for-profit Panda Base, where ticket money helps pay for research, I（allow）to get up close to these cute animals at the 600-acre centre. From tomorrow, I will be their UK ambassador. The title will be (official) given to me at a ceremony in London. But my connection with pandas goes back my days on a TV show in the mid-1980s, I was the first Western TV reporter(permit) to film a special unit caring for pandas rescued from starvation in the wild. My ambassadorial duties will include (introduce) British visitors to the 120-plus pandas at Chengdu and others at a research in the misty mountains of Bifengxia.
On my recent visit, I help a lively three-month-old twin that had been rejected by
(it) mother. The nursery team switches him every few( day) with his sister so that while one is being bottle-fed, other is with mum---she never suspects.

Almost everyone wants to be happy, but not all know how to find happiness. Money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness. Aristotle, a Greek thinker, said, “Happiness depends upon ourselves.” In other words, we make our own happiness. Here are a few suggestions to help you be happier.
The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Too often, we spend so much time thinking about the future that we fail to enjoy the present, for example, getting into college or getting a good job. You should enjoy life's simple pleasures, such as reading a good book, listening to your favorite music, or spending time with close friends. People who have several close friends often live happier and healthier lives.
Another secret to living a happy life is to be active, and have hobbies where you forget your problems and time. Many people experience dancing, or playing a sport, such as swimming. You can forget about your problems and only think about the activity.
Finally, many people find happiness in helping others. Studies show that people feel good when they spend their time helping others. If you want to feel happier, do good things for someone. You can help a friend with his or her studies, go shopping to buy food for an elderly person, or simply help out around the house by washing the dishes.
（1）The best title of this passage is ___________.
A.Good Friends Make You Happy
B.Ideas for Helping Other People to Be Happy
C.Money Makes You Happy
D.The Secret of Happiness
（2）The passage gives us ___________ pieces of advice on happiness.

In the depths of theFrench Guianese rainforest, there still remain unusual groups of indigenous(土著的) people.Surprisingly, these people live largely by their own laws and their own socialcustoms. And yet, people in this area are in fact French citizens because ithas been a colony(殖民地) of the French Republic since 1946.

These localcitizens now have to balance their traditional self-supporting huntinglifestyle with the lifestyle offered by the modern French Republic, whichbrings with it not only necessary state welfare, but also alcoholism,betrayal and even suicide.

Most people know that chocolate is made from cocoa and that the origins of chocolate can be traced back to Central and South America. But how did chocolate go from being the food of the gods to being the food of love?
They established the first cocoa plantation and used the cocoa beans as the main ingredient in a dark，bitter drink that we would call “chocolate”. The Mayas believed that chocolate had mystical properties. In fact，cocoa beans were used as a form of currency that was worth its weight in gold.
Spanish conquistador Hernando Cortez was the first European explorer to realize cocoa's commercial possibilities. In 1529，Cortez returned Spain and introduced chocolate—as a drink mixed with sugar，vanilla，and cinnamon—to European society.
It caught on，especially with the nobility. As its popularity spread，people found new ways to make and use chocolate. Whether it is in delectable desserts or crunchy candy，people all over the world are still in love with chocolate.
A. But cocoa also had commercial value.
B. But not all the people all over the world love cocoa.
C. For centuries，the native there regarded cocoa as a gift from the gods.
D. When he arrived in the New World in 1519，he soon established his own cocoa plantation.
E. Around A.D.600，the Mayas were the main aboriginal group in Central America.
F. These days，chocolate is enjoyed as both a tasty treat and a romantic indulgence.
