    题目列表(包括答案和解析)

    You have the ability to decide if you are happy or not. Happiness is a choice.

    You can't depend on someone else to make you happy. That is a lesson I learned early on in my marriage. I realized that I couldn't rely on my husband as my source of happiness. I learned that my happiness depended on me and not my husband's actions. I learned that you have to choose to be happy.

    You can choose your emotions. True happiness comes from within; it can't be forced by outside forces. So how do you choose happiness? The same way you choose to smile or choose to wear a certain outfit. You choose it because that's what you want to experience in your life.

    You want to buy a new pair of shoes so you choose a pair that you like and feel good. You wouldn't buy a pair of shoes that you don't like or that don't fit well, right? So why do we keep choosing emotions and feelings that don't make us feel good?

    Choosing to be happy after you realize your anger has shown up (or even choosing to be calm) can be beneficial. We choose our feelings; no one can do that for us. If we let others get to us, influence our emotions - we are giving them power over us. When others cause us anger or pain, we are giving them our power.

    We need to keep our feelings in check and not react automatically to what is thrown at us. We need to think our actions out instead of just reacting to what someone says or does.

    Remember that we can always choose happiness. At first it will be difficult to just switch your thoughts and feelings from anger, self-doubt, or fear to joy and happiness. But it is only a thought away. Don't dwell on what happens to you unnecessarily but realize what is causing you to feel that way. Realize that thoughts, feelings and emotions can change. Then move on and choose to be happy.

    56．What’s the best title of this passage?

    　　 A. Pretend to Be Happy　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 B. Choose Your Emotions

    　　 C. Choose to Be Happy　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 D. Find Happiness

    57．The lesson the writer learned in her marriage is ________.

    　　 A. one can’t rely on someone else to make himself or herself happy

    　　　 B. balancing the relationship between the husband and wife is an art

    　　　 C. she can depend on her husband to find happiness

    　　　 D. happiness can be influenced by outside forces

    58．Why did the writer mention buying shoes?

    　　　 A. To offer advice on how to choose comfortable shoes.

    　　　 B. To use it as an example to show the importance of choosing to be happy.

    　　　 C. To compare choosing shoes and choosing an outfit.

    　　　 D. To help to move to the next paragraph easily.

    59．The writer suggests that we should ________.

    　　　 A. let others control our feelings　　　　　　　　　　　

    　　　 B. respond immediately to others’ words

    　　　 C. hold back our feelings properly

    　　　 Most children now chat daily either online or through their mobile phones. They are connecting to a huge number of other children all over the world. Some are shy “in real life” but are confident to communicate with others online; others find support from people of their own age on relationship issues, or problems at home.

    　　　 Sometimes the online world, just like the real world, can introduce problems, such as bullying or arguments. Going online is great fun, but there are also a few people who use the Internet for offensive(冒犯性的)or illegal aims. Children must be made aware（意识到的） of both the good things and the dangers.

    　　　 To keep children safe your management must cover the family computer. Just as you decide which TV programs are suitable, you need to do the same for the websites and chat rooms your children visit. Remind your children that online friends are still strangers. Reminding them of the risks will keep them alert(警惕).

    　　　 Computer studies are part of schoolwork now, so it’s likely that your children may know more than you do. We get left behind when it comes to the latest gadgets（小玩意）and the interactive areas of websites, like chat rooms and message boards, which are especially strange. The language of chat is strange to many parents, too. Chatters love to use abbreviations(缩写)such as: atb-all the best, bbfn-bye bye for now, cul8er-see you later, gr8-great, Idk-I don’t know, imbl-it must be love, kit-keep in touch, paw-parents are watching, lol-laugh out loud, xlnt-excellent!

    　　　 It seems like another language, and it is!

    44．The passage is meant for 　　　 .

    A. children　　　　　　 B. parents　　　　　　 C. teachers　　　　　 D. net bar owners

    45．Which of the following will the author probably agree with?

    A. The Internet is no good for children.　　　 　

    B. The chat language is strange to adults.

    C. Children shouldn’t chat so much online.

    D. The Internet is a good place for children.

    46．In order to keep children safe online, you’d better 　　　 .

    A. choose suitable websites and chat rooms for them

    B. teach them to use correct net words

    C. surf the Internet together with them

    D. forbid them to use the Internet

    47．If you stand beside him when your son is chatting about something secret online, he may use 　　　 .

    A. bbfn　　　　　　　　 B. lol　　　　　　 C. paw　　　　　 D. cul8er

    We do some strange things when we don’t like the way our life is going．Too often we blame(责怪)someone else．‘‘I wish my parents were more understanding．”
    “I have such a bad Chemistry teacher!”
    “My friends are so boring and self-centered．They make my life worse and worse．’’
    Blame! Blame! Blame!
    It seems natural to sing this self-pitying song，but the truth is，if you don’t like your life，you should do something about it．No one else knows exactly how you feel or what you need．No one can read your mind correctly．You are the only one with the power to cheek your life，and if you want it to be different，you can change what you’re doing．
    When you’re in trouble，don’t give away your power to decide how you feel about yourself. Choose how you want to think and act．Other people can’t make you unhappy or angry．They only act in their own way and then it’s up to you to decide how you will respond(回应)．For example，your friends go out to lunch without you and you feel very angry．How are you going to act? You may blame your friends，“They are not kind．Who needs them anyway?” Or you may tell your friends how you feel，listen to their explanation，and let them know you’d like to be invited next time．
    When you decide everything in your own way，you’re getting hold of your own life and shaping(塑造)it according to your tastes and feelings．You can choose to be happy，to make friends and to build an interesting life．When you blame others for what is or isn’t happening in your life，you have stopped growing or learning．
    One of the most important rules is that you can never change another person by your direct action．The only person you have the right to change is yourself．Once you change，the other person has something different to respond to and change is possible．If you want change in your life，begin with yourself．
