Do you know that an Englishman has spent years protecting it? William Lindesay got interested in the Great Wall when he was a schoolboy. In order to realize his dream of visiting it, he majored in (主修) Geography at college. In April 1987, he arrived in China and spent 78 days walking along the Great Wall. During the journey, William found that the Great Wall was actually not the same as what he had seen in pictures. Some people scribble (乱涂) on it and some throw rubbish all around, he said. From then on, William made up his mind to stay in China, study and protect the Great Wall. In April 1998, William called together more than 120 volunteers all over the world to pick up rubbish. He also hired (雇用) local villagers to pick up rubbish. Later William realized that picking up rubbish was not enough to protect the Great Wall. To call on more people to make efforts, he founded the organization International Friends of the Great Wall in 2001. Together with the volunteers, William goes to the Great Wall to pick up rubbish every week.

Last Friday he came back from school with a letter. The letter was from his teacher. “I got a red flower today. Could you please sign this note?” he said to mum. The note showed that he had been talking in class.Ted hardly gets top scores in his school work. The best he gets is “OK”, but he often gets “You can do better than this.” Mum knows what it means. She tells me “You can do better than this” means “Extremely bad” in China.In the USA, teachers never say anything too bad about their students, even if the students are making trouble in class or not working hard enough. The worst they might say is “Please be nicer tomorrow”. Many parents are satisfied with a B-grade for each subject.But things in Chinese schools are quite different. Parents have high expectations for their children. I sometimes felt that my second-grade cousin spend more time on homework than I did when I was 6th grade in the US! Yet his parents and teachers didnt think he worked hard enough.Is it too strict in China? Or is it not strict enough in the USA? Maybe both are true.（1）Why did Ted come home with a letter last Friday?A . Because the teacher wanted to visit his mother.B . Because he did something wrong.C .

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 lifes simple pleasures, such as reading a good book, listening to your favorite music, or spending time with close friends. People who have several close friends often live happier and healthier lives.Another secret to 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）The best title（标题）of the passage is _.A . Money Makes You HappyB . The Secrets of HappinessC . Ideas for Helping Other People to Be HappyD . Good Friends Make You Happy（2）The second paragraph tells us that _.A . the more friends you have, the happier you will beB . we shouldnt think about our futureC . happiness is to enjoy the simple things in lifeD . some people fail to live a happy life（3）The passage gives us _ pieces of advice on happiness.A . oneB . twoC . threeD . four（4）The writer thinks that _.A . everyone knows how to live a happier lifeB . its wrong to spend time on workC . hobbies take up too much timeD . doing good things for someone can make you happier（5）Which of the following is not mentioned in the passage?A .

Kennedys quote(引语）Too often we enjoy the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought. shows an unpleasant truth.Much of what we know and believe has been taught to us by others, and we often accept this information without spending much time thinking it over for ourselves.In todays world, we are being presented with information, ideas and beliefs, but many of them are against each other. Psychology(心理学）tells us that if we hear an idea enough times, or it comes from someone we respect(尊敬), we will probably believe that idea. In these cases, we base our opinions on the opinions of others. If each of us does not think about this information for ourselves and come to our own conclusions , we will become nothing more than parrots（鹦鹉） quoting the opinions of others.Examples of spreading fake news without thought can be seen on the Internet. Some people believe whatever they read and then share the story without thinking about the facts. All it takes is one quick click(点击）of the share button, and the story travels on its way to influence even more unthinking readers. This can cause serious problems.If we just stop for a moment to think about what we read and hear, and form our own opinions, we will be more thoughtful, more independent, and more creative people, but few take that time. Yet we need not lose heart over this bad habit. In fact, simply becoming aware (意识到） of it is the first step towards correcting it. Once we become aware that we tend(趋向）to hold opinions and beliefs without thinking them through, we can change that pattern of behavior. Hopefully, we can learn to experience and enjoy the discomfort of thought and form our own opinions.（1）Whats the purpose of this passage? A . To describe how Internet news spreads.B . To explain why people dont have their own opinions.C . To tell people that they should have their own thoughts.D . To warn people not to believe other peoples ideas.（2）The underlined word fake in Paragraph 4 probably means A . untrueB . unhappyC . unfairD . unusual（3）How can we have our own opinions according to the passage? A . By spreading the information we receive.B . By learning more about psychology.C . By quoting others opinions like parrots.D . By thinking about what we read and hear.（4）We can probably find this passage in a book about A . historyB . educationC . sportsD . languages21. （10分）阅读下列短文，按要求完成各题。CWe often read the Air Quality Index （空气质量指标） or AQI reported in the newspaper.
