When the baby bird learns to fly， the whole family flies off to a different place leaving behind the beautiful nest for other birds to grow their family in it. It made me confused(困惑的)： How could they so easily give up their house built with so much effort?One night， I got this dream. I was walking on the endless road with beautiful trees on the either side. Attracted by the greenery， I went on， then I saw a wonderful house. I explored the house. There was a sloping(斜的) roof which matched with the greenery around； the large central open yard reminded me of the activities that might have taken place there which felt lively even now. The small water body that kept the house cool added to the beauty of the house of course， it was all dried up now. Such liveliness turns the house into a home. People say “THE HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS”， and now I felt it and was attracted deeply. When I woke up from the dream， I was clear about everything. I realized what message my dream wanted to convey(传递) me. And years later， when I chose my career， I thought of the story of the bird and my dream， then I was sure what to do. I decided to choose architectureas my career. I wanted to do the same thing that the male bird in the story did， to take pain in building a beautiful house and let others stay in it. My dream comes true and the happiness that I gain now from this career is great.41 . When the writer read the story of the bird， he felt _.AboredBconfusedCamazedDworried42 .

The passage is mainly about _.Ahow the bird could give up their house easilyBhow the writer finally becomes an honest citizenCwhat we need to do when we choose our careerDwhy the writer chooses architecture as his careerInternational Day of HappinessYou might think the International Day of Happiness is a day to practice positive (积极的) thinking or to give thanks for the things in your life that make you happy. But in fact, its a United Nations (UN) project which has a more serious purpose. The UN thinks happiness will only be for everyone when the people of the world are equal (平等的).The idea goes back to 1972, when the King of Bhutan, Jigme Singye Wangchuck, said that we should measure (测量) a countrys progress (进步) by its happiness and not just how much it produces or how much money it makes. He called it Gross (总的) National Happiness (GNH). Again, it is more than just a nice idea. And the results are compared every year to measure progress. The government (政府) uses the results and the ideas behind GNH to make plans for the country. Other places also use this kind of shorter report, such as in the cities of Victoria in Canada and Seattle in the USA, as well as the state of Vermont, USA.In 2011, a UN adviser called Jayme Illien suggested the idea of an international day to increase (增加) happiness. His plan was accepted by Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon in 2012. Jayme was born in Calcutta, India, and he became an orphan (孤儿) when he was a child. An American nurse, Anna Belle Illien adopted him and she travelled the world to help orphans and she took Jayme with her. He saw children like him, but who were not as lucky as him because they were often escaping wars or they were very poor. He wanted to do something about it, so he worked in the areas of childrens and human rights (人权).The UN measures and compares the happiness of different countries in the World Happiness Report. The Report includes three parts: society, economy (经济) and environment. The UN also sets goals for countries to achieve to increase happiness because it says happiness is a basic (基本的)human right. Happiness should not be something people have because they are lucky to live in a place where they have basic things like peace, education and so on. If we agree that these basic things are human rights, then it is not a very big step to agree that happiness is a basic human right, too.45 .

Can you tell me where there is a phone box?”“Oh,” he said, “there is a phone downstairs.”When at last we met, Danny explained the misunderstanding to me.“Dont worry,” he said to me, “I had so many difficulties at first.
