24、 Most people want to be happy, but few 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—for example, getting into college or getting a good job—that we fail to enjoy the present. You should enjoy life's simple pleasures, such as reading a good book, listening to your favourite music, or spending time with close friends. People who have several close friends often live happier and healthier lives.
Another secret of living a happy life is to be active, and have hobbies where you forget your problems and time. Many people experience this 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】According to the writer, which isn't a simple thing in life?
A.Enjoying the present.
B.Reading a book.
C.Spending time with close friends.
D.Spending too much time getting a good job.
【2】The best title(标题) of the passage is ________.
A.Money Makes You Happy
B.The Secrets of Happiness
C.Ideas for Helping Other People to Be Happy
D.Good Friends Make You Happy
【3】The second paragraph tells us that ________.
A.the more friends you have, the happier you will be
B.we shouldn't think about our future
C.happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life
D.some people fail to live a happy life
【4】The passage gives us ________ pieces of advice on happiness.
A.one B.two C.three D.four
【5】The writer thinks that ________.
A.everyone knows how to live a happy life
B.it's wrong to spend time on work
C.hobbies take up too much time
D.doing good things for someone can make you happier
25、“Volunteering makes you look at the world differently. You see how little things can change a person’s life for the better, which makes everyone a better person,” Mason, a volunteer said.
National Volunteer Week started in 1974 and is held every April. It is a time to thank volunteers for their achievements. It is also a perfect opportunity to encourage others to take their first step toward becoming a volunteer. Making the decision to take the first step can be the biggest problem, because they often wonder if they will be able to meet the organization’s expectations. Some people fear not knowing anyone else in the group. Not having enough time also prevents some from sharing their abilities.
The following tips can help if you have some of these worries:
★Start out slowly, don’t add too much pressure. Even a few hours a month can make a big difference in someone’s life.
★Choose an organization with the same interests and common values.
★Take part in a training meeting for new volunteers, even if it is not asked.
★Work with a veteran(经验丰富的) volunteer. He volunteered a lot; he can help you increase the confidence and completely understand the organization’s expectations.
★Invite a friend or family member to serve. It is a good experience to volunteer with them.
★Finally, it is most important to enjoy the volunteer experience and to remember that not all volunteer experiences are perfect. If the experience doesn’t work, don’t give up and you’ll surely find the right opportunity.
Spend some time on volunteer work and you will see great changes in people’s lives. As Mason discovered during his volunteer experience, “﹍little things can change a person’s life.”
【1】Volunteering can help _____.
A. make a decision B. see the world clearly

C. They fear that their abilities are shared. D. They don’t expect to become volunteers.
【3】Which of the following can help people take the first step?

D. How to keep on volunteering whatever happened.
26、Many years ago, I had my first chance to visit Russia. “Russians are a very polite people,” I had been told before my arrival. One of my friends explained that a gentleman will pour the lemonade(柠檬水) for the ladies and show other good manners.
Toward the end of my three-week trip, I was invited by my Russian friend Nicolai Vasilevich and his wife Yulya out to dinner. At the end of a wonderful meal, Yulya asked if I would like a banana. I politely declined (婉谢) and thanked her, and explained I was most satisfied(满意的) with the meal. But my mind was racing: “What should I do? Should I offer her a banana though they are as close to her as they are to me? What is the polite thing to do?”
“Would you like a banana?” I asked Yulya.
“Yes,” she smiled, but didn’t try to take any of the three bananas in the fruit basket.
“Which one would you like?” I asked again.
“That one,” she pointed at one of the bananas. So thinking about Russian politeness, I picked the banana Yulya had pointed at. Then I peeled it half way and handed it to her. Smiles on Yulya’s and Nicolai’s faces told me I had done the right thing. After this experience, I spent much time letting the world know that in Russia, the polite thing was to peel bananas for ladies.
However, sometime during my third trip I learned I was wrong.
“Oh no, David,” a Russian politely corrected me. “In Russia, when a man peels a banana for a lady, it means he has a romantic(浪漫的)interest in her. ” How embarrassed (尴尬) I felt.
So to communicate properly with people of different cultures, we should watch carefully how people of the same culture communicate with each other. Besides, don’t be afraid to ask questions about their culture.
【1】Before his first visit to Russia, the writer learned Russian gentlemen are polite to ___.
A. foreigners B. strangers
C. friends D. women
【2】The underlined word “peeled” in paragraph 6 means “_______”.
A. took the skin off something
B. put something back
C. made something clean
D. cut something in two
【3】Which of the following seems to be true according to the passage?
A. The writer’s third trip lasted about three weeks.
B. Russian gentlemen never peel bananas for ladies.
C. The writer tried to follow Russians’ behavior in Russia.
D. Yulya was pleased with the writer’s behavior but Nicolai wasn’t.
【4】The writer wrote the passage mainly to ______.
A. show us how polite Russian people are
B. tell us his funny experience in Russia
C. ask us to care about cultural differences
D. remind us what we should do in Russia
27、In a class discussion not long ago, I asked my students the following question, “How long could you feel comfortable and right without food?” One student quickly answered, “About two hours.” The answer is true. For most of us, we begin to feel hungry in a few hours after each meal. We can’t imagine starting our day by waking up hungry, going all day without food and going to bed with even greater hunger.
The statistics (数据) on hunger in the United States are much surprising to all of us. According to Feeding America, “50,000,000 Americans don’t know where their next meal is coming from. That’s the number in one of the wealthiest nations on the planet. And one in four of these 50,000,000 people are children.”
No Kid Hungry surveyed more than 1,000 teachers and principals around the country and found that 73 percent of teachers said they regularly teach hungry students who don’t have enough food to eat at home, and 87 percent of principals said they often see hungry students in school. As a result of so many hungry students, teachers spend nearly $40 a month buying food for kids with their own money.
This is the time of the year when children do not have the benefit (好处) of school lunch programs. Here are some ways we can do to help change this situation: First, we can give money to the local food bank. Next, we can donate food in our local area. Third, we can volunteer our time at a local food bank. So, on our next visit to the grocery store, add an extra food idem that can be donated to a food bank. Don’t wait to make a difference in a child’s life.
【1】Which of the following is true?
A. Many Americans don’t have enough food to eat.
B. Most children in the US don’t want to eat breakfast.
C. American children are in hunger right now.
D. American schools don’t provide free breakfast.
【2】The writer’s purpose of writing this text is to ______.
A. show the importance of school lunch programs
B. ask us to make some changes for children’s food
C. ask us to buy some more food when shopping next time
D. ask us to do something for students’ lunch programs
28、 I remember a psychiatrist(精神病医生)once said that if you ever feel sad, the best thing to do is do something for someone else because it gets you focused. It’s hard to be unhappy while serving someone else. A byproduct(副产品)of h【1】 others is feeling wonderful yourself.
I remember sitting in an airport one day, waiting for my flight. I was e【2】 because I had been upgraded(升级)to a first-class ticket. I had the best seat on the plane, seat 1A.
B【3】 boarding, I noticed a young lady who had several carry-on bags and was holding a crying baby. Having just finished reading a book on doing acts of kindness, I heard my conscience(良心)speak to me, “You guy, let her h【4】 your ticket.” I fought these words for a while but finally gave in.
“Excuse me, but it seems that you could use this first-class ticket more than me. I know how hard it can be flying with a k【5】. Why don’t we trade(交换)our tickets.”
“Are you sure?”
“Oh yeah. I really don’t mind. I’m just going to be working the whole time, anyway.”
“Well, thank you. That’s very kind of you,” she said as we e【6】 our tickets.
As we boarded the plane, I was surprised at how good it made me feel to watch her sit down in seat 1A. In fact, at that time, seat 24B or wherever I was sitting didn’t seem that bad at all. During the flight I was so curious to see how she was doing that I could h【7】 stand(忍受)it. So I got up out of my seat, walked to the first-class section. There she was with her baby, both in big and comfortable seat 1A. And I felt like getting a million dollars. I’ve got to keep doing this kind of thing.
29、 It was last June. I entered a supermarket when a young man asked me, “Can you tell me where the milk counter (柜台) is?” “Well, it's in the right corner,” I replied. Picking up my things, I came to the milk counter and saw the same man_______almost 10 bottles of milk. I asked, “Do you need a trolley (手推车)?” “Sure, thank you." he answered. I was_______he was still picking and after a while his trolley had 24 bottles of milk. “Why so many bottles?”I asked. “Oh, these are for my street dogs. Today, I want to be a Santa for them.” He smiled. “Well, it's too_______for you to be a Santa. It is still June.” I said. He_______at me and walked a few steps. It seemed he wanted to say something but he left without a word._______, we met again at the bread counter. “So these bread and cakes are also for the street dogs, Mr. Santa.” He smiled, “Yes. These are also for them and I love to be Mr. Santa in June. Santa is a symbol of surprises and_______.He comes in December as we_______him around Christmas. But in real life there is a Santa in each one of us that shines through our personality at some point of time. Maybe when you offered me a trolley, there was a_______Santa in you. When we offer food to a hungry man or a(n)_______to someone caught in the rain, we are being Santa there.”
He left and I was happy that I had met him. Santa can come before Christmas. We just need to realize that he is around us by________happiness and unconditional love.
