why is this? of course, because people who cant read or write have to remember things: they cannot write them down in a little notebook. they have to remember dates, prices, names, songs and stories, so their memory is exercised all the time. so if you want a good memory, learn from those who cannot read or write: practise remembering.1according to the passage, few people know that _.a. arms or legs become weak if they are not used for some timeb. when they start using their arms or legs again, they slowly become strong againc. a persons memory becomes weak if he does not practise remembering thingsd. it is their own fault if their arms or legs are weak2the author thinks that if a person has a poor memory, _.a. it is his own fault b. his parents are to blamec. he is just unlucky d. his arms must be weak3 from paragraph 3, we can learn that _.a. people who cant read are cleverer than those who canb. people who cant write are cleverer than those who canc. a little notebook helps people who cannot read or write get a better memoryd. people who practise remembering regularly have a better memory4 the passage mainly tells us _.a. how to get our arms and legs stronger b. how to improve our memoryc. how to read and write d. how to remember dates and pricesbin my experience, one of the greatest reasons of unhappiness is the difficulty we have in accepting things as they arewhen we see something we dont like, we wish it could be differentwe cry out for something betterthat may be human nature, or perhaps its something that has been grown in our culturethe root of the unhappiness isnt that we want things to be different, however, its that we decided we didnt like it in the first placeweve judged it as bad, rather than saying, “its not bad or good, but it just is”here is an examplei have written a paper, a beautiful method to find peace of mindquite a few people think it bad after reading it because i think people should expect things to go differently than you planned, and that you should accept that, instead of encouraging people to change themselves or the environment as much as possibleyou could accept it as the way the world worksas the way things actually areand try to understand why that is, and follow it, as it isthis can be useful to whatever you do: whether it be how other people act at work, how politics works and how depressing the news media can beaccept these things as they are, and try to understand why theyre that wayitll save you a lot of sadness because youll no longer say, “oh, i wish things didnt go bad!”if you really understand what i mean, you can try a different way to live in this world:accept, and understandit might lead to some interesting results1what is the major reason why we feel unhappy in the writers opinion?awe are never satisfied with ourselves and the environment around usbwhen we see something that makes us unhappy, we dont know what to docwe feel hard to accept the way things happen themselvesdno matter how happy we are, we never want to be happy2what do you think the writer may say to himself when he meets something unhappy?ahow could i have made such a stupid mistake?bi should have done betterits all my faultcwhy is it all against my plan? it cant be so baddwell, i know all is what it is meant to betake it easy3why do some people think badly of the writers new paper after reading it?athe writer hasnt shown an encouraging attitude in his paperbthe writer asks people to try to make things bettercthe writer reminds the people that things will go exactly as youve planneddthe writer doesnt think it a good idea to accept the things go naturally4the statements below are based on the writers points of view, except_aunhappiness may be caused by human nature that we always want things to be betterbwhy we dont like the thing is that we have regard it as bad in the beginningcthe news media shouldnt be so depressing if the reporters worked harderdthe best way to avoid feeling unhappy is to accept the things as they arecwhen newspapers and radio describe the damage caused by a hurricane（飓风） named hazel, girls named hazel are probably teased（取笑） by their friends. to keep out of trouble, the weather bureau says,“any resemblance between hurricane names and the names of particular girls is purely accidental.” some women became angry because hurricanes are given their names, but many other women are proud to see their names make headlines. they dont even care that they are the names of destructive storms. because more women seem to like it than dislike it, the weather bureau has decided to continue using girls names for hurricanes.in some ways a hurricane is like a person. after it is born, it grows and develops, then becomes old and dies. each hurricane has a character of its own. each follows its own path through the world, and people remember it long after it gone. so it is natural to give hurricanes names, and to talk about them almost if they were alive.1what happens to girls named hazel according to the passage?a.they suffer from hurricanes.b.the weather bureau look for them.c.others often make fun of them.d.they cant find boyfriend.2the underlined word“resemblance”probably means _.a.troubleb.differencec.samenessd.success3public opinions make the weather bureau _.a.consider the disagreement of some womenb.go on naming hurricanes after womenc.name hurricanes after mend.look for a new method to name hurricanesdnickname: hawaiis island of adventuresize: 4,028 square milespopulation: 148,677the most heavily populated areas are hilo on the east side and kailua-kona on the west.temperature: averages between 71f and 77f year around .beaches: 47 ; golf courses: 20 ; highest peak: mauna kea, 13,796 feet.agriculture: the bulk (主体) of hawaiis farming products are grown and processed on the big island, including coffee, macadamia nuts and papaya.hotels: 9,655 rooms total; nightly rates range from $ 35$ 5,000.airports: hilo international airport on the east side and kona international airport on the west side.rental cars: all of the nationally known rental car companies have locations at hilo international and kona international airports as well as many resortsin addition, hilo, kona and the major resort areas are serviced by taxi.resources: call (800) 6482441 to order a video, poster, brochures and maps from the big island visitors bureausee for updated information.shopping: the large shopping centers are in hilo, kona, waimea and the kohala coast.1the passage is intended to be read by _.a. students b. businessmen c. tourists d. immigrants2the average population per square mile on the island is about _.a. 28 b. 32 c. 37 d. 443which of the following is not mentioned as a tr
