You dont need to care about those people who have beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools or those who have nice cars and a lot of money and so on. Why? Because those who have big houses may often feel lonely and those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads in their free time. In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. When you are in trouble at school, your friends will help you; 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; when you do something wrong, people around you will help you to correct it. And when you do something good to others, you will feel happy, too. All these are your happiness. If you notice a bit of them, you can see that happiness is always around you. Happiness is not the same as money. It is a feeling of your heart. When you are poor, you can also say you are very happy, because you have something else that cant be bought with money. When you meet with difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy, because you have more chances to challenge (向挑战) yourself. So you can not always say you are poor and you have bad luck. As the saying goes, life is like a revolving (旋转) door. When it closes, it also opens. If you take every chance you get, you can be a happy and lucky person.( ) 1. Those who have big houses may often feel _. A. happy B. lonely C .free D. excited( ) 2. When you fall down in a PE class, both your teacher and your classmates will _.A. laugh at you B. play jokes on you C. quarrel with you D. help you up( ) 3. What will your friends say to you when you make great progress? A. Oh, so do I. B. Congratulations. C. Good luck. D. Its just so-so.( ) 4. Which idea is NOT right according to the passage? A. People who have cars would never like to walk in the open airB. You can get help from others when you make mistakesC. You can still be a happy person even if you have little moneyD. Happiness is always around you though difficulties come towards you( ) 5. Which of the following is this passage about? _. A. Bad luck B. Good luck C. Happiness D. LifeBThe customs (习惯) in different countries are rather different. If I have dinner with a Chinese host, he always puts more food onto my plate as soon as I have emptied it. That often discomforts (使不安) me greatly. I have to eat the food even if I do not want to. Because it is considered bad manners in the West to leave ones food on the plate. I have also noticed that when a Chinese sits at an Americans dinner party, he often refuses the offer of food or drink though hes in fact still hungry or thirsty. This might be good manners in China but is not in the West at all. In the United States, it is impolite to keep asking someone again and again or insist on his accepting something. Americans have a direct way of speaking. If they want something, they will ask for it. If not, they will say, “No, thanks.” When an American is served with beer by the host, for example, he might say, “No, thanks. Ill take some orange juice if you have it.” That is what an American will do. So when you go to the United States, youd better remember the famous saying: “When in Rome, do as the Romans do.”( ) 6. From this passage we can see that the writer is _.A. a Chinese B. RomanC. an American D. a European( ) 7. When a Chinese host kept putting more food onto his plate, the writer felt _. A. very happy B. sadC. angry D. uncomfortable( ) 8. In the West, people consider it bad manners _. A. to refuse an offer B. to keep asking someone to accept something C. to eat much at a dinner partyD. to ask for something directly( ) 9. A guest at an Americans dinner party should show his politeness by _. A. not eating up all the food offered B. putting more food onto his plate as soon as he emptied it C. asking for things directly if he wants them D. refusing the offer of food or drink though he is still hungry or thirsty( ) 10. “When in Rome, do as the Romans do” means _. A. the Romans are people of good manners B. Americans always do the same things as the Romans do C. the Romans are polite. D. you should get used to the local customs wherever you goCThe world itself is becoming much smaller by using modern traffic and TV, telephone and so on. Life today is much easier than it was hundreds of years ago, but it has also brought new problems. One of the biggest is pollution. Pollution comes in many ways. We see it, smell it, drink it and even hear it. The more people, the more pollution. Many years ago, the problem was not so serious because there were not so many people. Man is now slowly polluting the whole world. Air pollution is still the most serious. Its bad to all living things in the world. Water pollution kills our fish and pollutes our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us become angry more easily.Many countries are making rules to fight pollution. They stop people from burning coal in houses and factories in the city.The pollution of SO2 is now the most dangerous problem of air pollution. It is caused by heavy traffic. It is sure that if there are fewer people driving, there will be less air pollution.( ) 11. Our world is becoming much smaller _.A. because the earth is being polluted day and night B. because of science developmentC. because of the rise in population D. because the earth is blown away by the wind every year( ) 12. Hundreds of years ago, life was _ it is today.A. much easier thanB. as easy as C. as hard as D. much harder than( ) 13. Pollution comes in many ways. We can even hear it.
