Probably when 26 first painted their faces many thousand years ago, it was for the purpose of 27 their enemies in war. But there are records of women in Egypt 28 cosmetics more than four thousand years ago. These women not only painted their eyebrows, they also added a thick dark line under 29 eye, and had 30 kinds of paint for different seasons of the 31 .Women in ancient Rome used cosmetics. 32 used Egyptian KOHL for darkening the eyelids, powdered chalk for whitening the skin, and a red coloring matter for the cheeks. A rich Roman lady spent many hours over her dressing, arranging the hair and putting on make-up, 33 by a crowd of young 34 of many nationalities. The Roman writer Oind 35 a book on cosmetics, which gives a description of what we now call a face-pack, made 36 flour, eggs and other materials. The use of this, he says, will make the face smoother and brighter than a mirror.In 37 , it was the custom, during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, for all ladies of all ladies of fashion to paint 38 faces and to blacken their eyebrows. In the nineteenth century there was a change of taste, however, and until about the end of the century, ladies who used make up were 39 accepted in high society. Girls were advised, just before 40 the ballroom, to bite and lick(舔) their lips and slap their cheek 41 so as to brink some 42 to the face.Today the use of cosmetics is accepted everywhere, and it is 43 to see women and girls making up in public.

Some value it highly, believing that it is responsible for social progress and prosperity, others say that competition is bad, that it sets one person against another and that it leads to unfriendly relationship between people.I have taught many children who held the belief that their self-worth relied on how well they performed at tennis and other skills. For them, playing well and winning are often life-and-death affairs. In their single-minded pursuit(追求) of success, the development of many other human qualities is sadly forgotten.However, while some seem to be lost in the desire to succeed, others take an opposite attitude. In a culture which values only the winners and pays no attention to the ordinary players, they strongly blame competition. Among the most vocal are youngsters who have suffered under competitive pressures from their parents or society. Teaching these young people I often observe in them a desire to fail. They seem to seek failure by not trying to win or achieve success. By not trying, they always have an excuse: “I may have lost, but it doesnt matter because I really didnt try.” What is not usually admitted by themselves is the belief that if they had really tried and lost , that would mean a lot. Such a loss would be a measure of their worth. Clearly, this belief is the same as that of the true competitors who try to prove themselves. Both are based on the mistaken belief that ones self-respect relies on how well one performs in comparison with others. Both are afraid of not being valued. Only as this basic and often troublesome fear begins to dissolve(缓解) can we discover a new meaning in competition. 46. What does this passage mainly talk about?A. Competition helps to set up self-respect.B. Opinions about competition are different among people.C. Competition is harmful to personal quality development.D. Failures are necessary experiences in competition.47. Why do some people favor competition according to the passage?A. It pushes society forward. B. It builds up a sense of duty.C. It improves personal abilities. D. It encourages individual efforts.48. The underlined phrase “ the most vocal” in Paragraph 3 means _.A. those who try their best to winB. those who value competition most highlyC. those who are against competition most stronglyD. those who rely on others most for success49. What is the similar belief of the true competitors and those with a desire to fail?A. Ones worth lies in his performance compared with others.B. Ones success in competition needs great efforts.C. Ones achievement is determined by his particular skills.D. Ones success is based on how hard he has tried.50. Which point of view may the author agree to?A. Every effort should be paid back.B. Competition should be encouraged.C. Winning should be a life-and-death matter.D. Fear of failure should be removed in competition.BDo you want to live with a strong sense of peacefulness, happiness, goodness, and self-respect? The collection of happiness actions broadly categorized as “honor” help you create this life of good feelings.Heres an example to show how honorable actions create happiness.Say a store clerk fails to charge us for an item. If we keep silent, and profit from the clerks mistake, we would drive home with a sense of sneaky excitement. Later we might tell our family or friends about our good fortune. On the other hand, if we tell the clerk about the uncharged item, the clerk would be grateful and thank us for our honesty. We would leave the store with a quiet sense of honor that we might never share with another soul.Then, what is it to do with our sense of happiness?In the first case, where we dont tell the clerk, a couple of things would happen. Deep down inside we would know ourselves as a type of thief. In the process, we would lose some peace of mind and self-respect. We would also demonstrate that we cannot be trusted, since we advertise our dishonor by telling our family and friends. We damage our own reputations by telling others. In contrast, bringing the error to the clerks attention causes different things to happen. Immediately the clerk knows us to be honorable. Upon leaving the store, we feel honorable and our self-respect is increased. Whenever we take honorable action we gain the deep internal rewards of goodness and a sense of nobility.There is a beautiful positive cycle that is created by living a life of honorable thoughts that lead to honorable actions. Honorable actions lead us to a happier existence. And its easy to think and act honorably again when were happy. While the positive cycle can be difficult to start, once its started, its easy to continue. Keeping on doing good deeds brings us peace of mind, which is important for our happiness.51. According to the passage, the positive action in the example contributes to our _.A. self-respect B. financial rewardsC. advertising ability D. friendly relationship52. The author thinks that keeping silent about the uncharged item is equal to _.A. lying B. stealing C. cheating D. advertising5
