The advisor followed the king everywhere and his favorite piece of advice to the king was “Everything happens for the good.”One day the king went hunting (狩猎) and had a small accident. His foot was injured. Fortunately he was not badly injured but as always he was forced to ask his advisor what he thought about the accident, to which the advisor replied, “Everything happens for the good.”This time the king was really angry and put his advisor in prison (监狱). The king then asked his advisor, “Now, what do you think?” The advisor again answered, “Everything happens for the good.”About a week later the king went on another hunting trip. As it turned out the king was caught by some cannibals (食人者) and taken to their camp where he would be prepared to be their evening meal. Before putting him into the cooking pot, he was examined and the cannibals realized that the kings foot was injured. They decided to throw him back into the forests. It is the tradition for the cannibals not to eat anything that was in any way injured.It is true that everything in our lives happens for a purpose, and most often for our own good. If you think about it, all our past experiences actually happened to bring us to where we are today and make us a better person. So whatever challenges that we may face today, consider it happening to bring us to the next level.2 1. When the advisor was put in prison, he remained_.A. nervous B. calm C. angry D. upset22. The second paragraph(段) tells us that_.A. the advisor didnt have much useful adviceB. the king was always careless about everythingC.the king always asked for advice from the advisorD. the advisor was worried about the king23.By telling the story, the writer_.A. tells us the danger of huntingB. asks us not to hunt any moreC. wishes us to follow others adviceD. wants us to think positively24. It can be inferred（推断）from the last paragraph that_.A. everything happens for their own reasonsB. it is good for us to think about experiencesC. our life experiences are our best teacherD. challenges will make you do anythingBHappiness is for everyone.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 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 feel 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 yourself.So you cannot always say you are poor and poor and you have bad luck.As the saying goes，life is like a revolving(旋转的) door.When it does，it also opens.If you take every chance you get，you will be a happy and lucky person.25When you fall down in a PE class，both your teacher and your classmates will _.Alaugh at you Bplay jokes on youCquarrel with you Dhelp you up26Those who have big houses may often feel _.Ahappy Blonely Cfree Dexcited27What will your friends say to you when you make great progress?ACongratulations BOh，so do I.CGood luck. DIts just soso.28Which of the following is this passage about?ABad luck. BGood luck.CLife. DHappinessCWhat makes one person more intelligent than another? What makes one person a genius, like the brilliant Albert Einstein, and another person a fool? Are people born intelligent or stupid, or is intelligence the result of where and how you live? These are very old questions and the answers to them are still not clear.We know, however, that just being born with a good mind is not enough. In some ways, the mind is like a leg or an arm muscle. It needs exercise. Mental (done with the mind) exercise is particularly important for young children. Many child psychologists (心理学家) think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about. The children are then more likely to grow up bright and intelligent. If, on the other hand, children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do, they are more likely to become dull and unintelligent.Parents should also be careful with what they say to young children. According to some psychologists, if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a fool or an idiot, then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things. So it is probably better for parents to say very positive things to their children, such as “That was a very clever thing you did.” or “You are such a smart child.”29. According to the context we can guess that a genius is_ while an idiot is _.A. a normal person; a funny personB. a strong person; a weak personC. a famous person; an ordinary personD . a highly intelligent person; a foolish or weak-minded person30. A person _ is more likely to become a genius.A. whose parents are cleverB. born with a good brain and putting it into active useC. often helped by his parents and teachersD. often thinking about difficult problems31. It is better for parents _.A. to praise and encourage their children more oftenB. to be hard on their childrenC. to leave their children alone with nothing to doD. to give their children as much help as possible32. What probably will be talked about following the last paragraph?A. The importance of good intelligence.B. Some examples of the failures when the intelligence is trained.C . What other factors we should pay attention to intelligence development?D. None of the above.DGET YOUR DEGREE AT HOME!Have you ever wondered what a degree(学位) might be worth to you in your job or career?
