Happiness is for everyone. You don't need to care about those who have beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools or 【1】  and so on.

Why? .Because those who have big house may often feel lonely and those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads at their free time.

In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it.  【2】  ; when you study hard at your lessons, your parents are always taking good care of your life and your health; when you get success, your friends will say congratulations to you; 【3】 .All these are your happiness. If you notice them, you can see that happiness is always around you.

Happiness is not the same as money.It is a feeling of your heart.

25、   Lin Hanxing is a 30-year-old who lives in Beijing. She owns just five shirts, two pairs of trousers, four pairs of shoes, three books and a few other things. It’s hard to believe that only five years ago, Lin was one of those people who couldn’t stop buying things. Back then, she had more than 400 pieces of clothes and handbags. But that was before she saw an online challenge in 2014, introduced by Joshua Becker, a writer in the US who was promoting (推动) a minimalist lifestyle. He encouraged people to reduce the number of their belongings (财物) to fewer than 100. Lin decided to give it a try. She threw away 90 percent of her belongings. She also cleared 120 people she never spoke to from her QQ and Wechat. After doing all that, Lin said she felt ‘lighter’.

We used to think owning more was the way to lead a rich life. But now many people believe that owning less is rich, perhaps richer.

According to US writer Joel Stillerman, people who are educated and wealthy are more likely to have a minimalist lifestyle. These people are saying, ‘I can afford to have less.’

But leading a minimalist lifestyle doesn’t only mean owning or spending less. Adam Lucacias from a UK research company Euromonitor found young people spend less on belongings, but more on short holidays and visits to the movies.

‘They are looking for a life that is all about culture.’ Alison Angus, the manager of Euromonitor, said.

So perhaps it all comes down to how we define (定义) ‘wealth’. Is wealth in life about buying more and owning more, or is it about learning more and experiencing more?

【1】Which of the following leads a minimalist lifestyle?

A. Alison Angus. B. Adam Lucacias.

C. Joe Stillerman. D. Joshua Becker.

【2】What does the underlined sentence mean？

A. I can live a good life with no more education and money.

B. I can live a good life by experiencing less and learning more.

C. I can live a good life with necessary belongings and friends.

D. I can live a good life with less money and fewer belongings.

【3】Lin Hanxing’s definition of ‘wealth’ may probably cover __________.

A. Owning fewer friends B. doing more learning

C. Having more holidays D. Chatting less often with people

26、   Amy is a biologist(生物学家)working at a marine(海洋的) park. These kinds of parks provide fun and education for tens of thousands of people each year.

Amy takes care of many animals in the park, but she also does important research. As she observes the animals that she looks after, she learns more about their needs and behavior. This information helps the animals in the park, but it can also be used to protect other members of the species in the wild.

It's hard work to look after these animals. Their needs often change according to different hours of the day. So Amy must depend on her science knowledge and good number sense to help her make the right decisions all day long.

Even though dolphins spend much of their time underwater, they are mammals(哺乳动物). This means that they must come to the surface to take in air. Dolphins give birth to their young. They're not hatched from eggs. Just like all other mammals, mother dolphins must nurse, or feed milk to their babies.

Amy and her team know this first-hand. One of their dolphins recently gave birth. A baby dolphin is not small, either. It was almost 1 meter long the day it was born. A big dolphin usually eats about 4% of its body weight in food every day. Amy knows that a mother dolphin that is nursing needs twice the food. So when the baby dolphin was born, Amy immediately doubled the mother's food every day.

【1】How much food does a 300 kg mother dolphin need every day?

A.600kg. B.12kg. C.24kg D.52 kg.

【2】What does Amy need to make the right decision according to this passage?

A.Good eyes and quick mind.

B.Swimming skills and spirit of competition.

C.Love and care for animals.

D.Science knowledge and good number sense.

【3】What does the underlined word "observes" in Paragraph 2 mean?

A.nurses the young animals B.watches something carefully

C.plays with something D.says something about

【4】Why is the information Amy learns very helpful?

A.It helps to protect the animals in the park as well s those in the wild.

B.It offers fun and education to tens of thousands of people.

C.It helps dolphins to feed milk to their babies.

D.It helps underwater animals to come to the surface.

【5】This passage is mainly about __________________________.

A.dolphins' life and food B.Amy's job at a marine park

C.education in a park D.protecting animals in the wild

27、

There is an old saying：one good turn deserves another. It means you do a helpful or kind act for someone who has done something good for you. Denson is a mechanic（机修工），but he lost his job a few months ago. He is kind and helpful, but always feared applying for a new job.

One day, he gathered up all his strength and decided to attend a job interview. His appointment was at 10 a.m. and it was already 8:30. While waiting for a bus to the office where he was supposed to be interviewed, he saw an elderly man wildly kicking the tyre（轮胎）of his car. Obviously（很显然）there was something wrong with the ear. Denson immediately went up to lend him a hand. When Denson finished working on the car, the old man asked him how much he should pay for the service. Denson said there was no need to pay him and he just helped someone in need, and he had to rush for an interview. Then the old man said,“Well, I could take you to the office for your interview. It’s the least I could do. Please, I insist.”Denson agreed.

On arrival, Denson found a long line of applicants（求职人）waiting to be interviewed. Denson still had some grease（油脂）on him after the car repair, but he did not have much time to wash it off or have a change of shirt. One by one, the applicants left the interviewer’s office with disappointed looks on their faces. Finally his name was called. The interviewer was sitting on a large chair facing the office window. Rocking the chair back and forth, he asked,“Do you really need to be interviewed?”Denson’s heart sank.“With the way I look now, how could I possibly pass this interview?”he thought to himself. Then the interviewer turned the chair and to Denson’s surprise, it was the old man he helped earlier in the morning. It turned out he was the General Manager of the company.“Sorry I had to keep you waiting, but I was pretty sure I made the right decision to have you as a member of the company before you even stepped into the office. I just know you’d be a trustworthy（值得信赖的）worker. Congratulations!”Denson sat down and they shared a cup of coffee as he landed himself a new job.

C.Good is rewarded with good. D.Two heads are better than one.

28、Learning a new language is always a challenge. There are new w  【1】  ， new grammar， and new pronunciation. Language is an important part of c 【2】. Becoming familiar with the culture as well as the language can make the learning experience much more i  【3】  .

  When I was a university student， I s  【4】  Chinese for three years. Before I went to university， I had very little k  【5】  of China. Therefore， when I started learning to speak Chinese， it was important for me to also learn about China’s history and culture. China’s culture is very different from my o 【6】  and I become interested in it soon.

It will be much more fun to learn about culture w  【7】  you study a new language. Culture can teach you so many things about a language. It can give you background information a  【8】  the language and tell you the history of the language. I also found out one fact， that is， if you know about the country and the culture， you will communicate with its people more e  【9】  .

Whenever I try to learn a new language， I enjoy k  【10】  information about the culture as well. It’s a challenge to learn more information， but it is very rewarding!

29、   As a child, I was shy. My parents thought that the way to _______ this problem was to shove(推)me into public situations. I was told to sing and _______ a speech in front of many people.

I did not do well. I would be nervous _______ I was placed in new situations. I would feel nervous to speak in front of a crowd. My parents were worried about that. Maybe it was because everyone in my _______ was outgoing except me.

When I grow up, I have known much about shyness. The shy people can't show their _______ perhaps because they're worried about saying the wrong thing or acting the wrong way. Often they feel _______ that strangers are judging their words or actions.
