You don t 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 at 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 can t be bought with money. When you meet with difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy, because you have more chances to challenge yourself. So you cannot always say you are poor and you have bad luck. As the saying goes, life is like a revolving(旋转的)door. When it closes, it also opens. If you take every chance you get, you can be a happy and lucky person.36.Those who have big houses may often feel _. A. happy B. lonely C. free D. excited37. 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 up38. What will your friends say to you when you make great progress?A. Oh, so do I. B. Congratulations. C. Good luck. D. It s just so-so.39. Which idea is NOT RIGHT according to the passage?A. People who have cars would never like to walk in the open air.B. You can get help from others when you make mistakes.C. You can still be a happy person even if you have little money.D. Happiness is always around you though difficulties come towards you. 40. Which of the following is this passage about?A. Bad luck. B. Good luck. C. Happiness. D. Life. (B)Stephen Hawking was born in Oxford, England on 8th January, 1942. He went to school in St Albans-a small city near London. Although he did well, he was never top of his class. After leaving school, Hawking went first to Oxford University where he studied physics, then he went to Cambridge University where he studied cosmology. As he himself admits(承认), he didnt work hard. He was a very lazy student, and did very little work. However, he still got good marks. It was at the age of 20 that Hawking first noticed something was wrong with him. He started to bump (撞上 )into things. When he visited his family at Christmas time, his mother was so worried that she made him see a doctor. Hawking was sent to hospital for tests. Finally, the result came back. Hawking had motor neurone disease, an incurable illness which would make him unable to speak, breathe or move without the help of a machine. Doctors said they had no way to help him. He would die before he was 23. At first, Hawking became very sad. After a while, though, he began to see his life in a different way. As he later write, Before my illness was diagnosed(诊断), I had been very bored with life. There bad not seemed to be anything worth doing. But shortly after I came out of hospital, I suddenly realized that there were a lot of worthwhile things I could do. Hawking married, found a job at Cambridge University, and had three children. He also went on to do some of the most important scientific research. Today, Hawking still works at Cambridge University as a professor. He strongly believes that his story shows that nobody, however bad their situation(处境) is, should lose hope. Life is not fair, he once said. You just have to do the best you can in your own situation.41. As a university student, Stephen Hawking _. A. worked very hard B. studied maths and physics C. was the best student in his class D. was lazy and did very little work42. Hawking first noticed something was wrong with him when _. A. he was sent to hospital for tests B. his mother made him, see a doctor C. he was twenty years old D. he visited his family at Christmas time one year43.

A. made up his mind to get married B. began to ,see his life in a different way C. thought that nothing in life was worth doing D. became very unhappily45. What would be the best title for this passage? A. Motor Neurone Disease B. Life is Fair C. Professor Stephen Hawking D. A Lazy Boy (C)It is sometimes said that the English are polite people. This can make life difficult for foreigners. Suppose a foreign boy asks an English girl to go out with him and she says, If I finish my work, Ill meet you in the cafe at 7 oclock. Is she saying yes or no to his invitation? In grammatical terms, she is using the conditional structure(表示条件的句式). By using the conditional, speakers of English can avoid (避免) giving a yes or no answer to a question. It enables people to be diplomatic(婉转的). If the girl doesnt want to go out with the boy, she wont appear at the cafe. She will let him understand she is still working. If she wants to go out with him, but doesnt want to appear too easy to catch, she has achieved (达到) that with her reply. Here she uses the first conditional which shows probability, it seems that she will go to the cafe. Being polite can make life very difficult! The conditional is often used by people like politicians(政客), for example-who wish to avoid speaking out their ideas. This is very important if they are on their way to discuss an agreement. No one wants to give away his or her points before he or she starts. A government spokesman might say to a group of workers, If we could pay you more, we would. The use of the conditional here makes room for argument although the speaker is using the second conditional form, which shows improbability. So it is unlikely the workers will get their rise. If is a small word, which often appears in the English language. It can show politeness, reported speech and conditionals such as the First-probability-if I can come to your party, I will; the Second-improbability-if I saw you tomorrow, Id give you the book; and the Third-impossibility (meaning it is too late to change something that has happened)-if you have told me, I would have helped you.46. The using of the conditional can make a speech _.A. clearer B. quicker C. more polite D. more exciting47. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. Language used in the news should make room to argue. B. Usually English girls are not easy to catch. C. English people never speak out their ideas in public.D. The word if can show different meanings.48.According to the passage, “If it doesnt rain tomorrow, I will go with you” means _. A. I will go with you tomorrow.B. I wont go with you until it rains tomorrow.C. I may go with you tomorrow. D. I wont go with you tomorrow.49. In the passage, If we could pay you more, we would. probably means _. A. the workers will make more moneyB. the spokesman doesnt give any promise (答应) C. the spokesman keeps his word （食言） D. the workers problems arent difficult50. This passage is mainly talking about _. A. the conditional in communication B. how to invite a girl in Britain C. British people and their life D. some language points in daily English四单词拼写（10分，一空一词）51.This is my _( 八 ) birthday.52. Thomas Edison was a great American _ (发明).53.
