17、e morning I had grabbed my favorite spot at a local Starbucks and was going through the newspaper when I noticed a man in ragged clothing looking really untidy. I felt led to speak to this man and so I did.I learned that he was homeless and just wandered from place to place. Starbucks was nice enoug

18、h to allow him to come in from the cold or the heat depending on the day. I also learned that he used to be an architect, but as we spoke I saw more and more that he wasnt at the fullest of mental capabilities, which made me even more upset that he didnt have a place to go.I sat with this man for a

19、very long time in Starbucks calling different clinics, hospitals, shelters, police departments. He even gave me a beat up business card of a gentleman saying that was his sons phone number. It was an out-of-state number, but I called anyway but was not able to reach him. Unfortunately, all the place

20、s I called were unable to take him.I asked him if he was hungry and he said yes, so I went down the street to a deli (熟食店) and ordered a sandwich and drink. When I got back, my new-found friend became angry for a reason I was not aware of or maybe it was some sort of mental disturbance. All I could

21、do was set the sandwich down and told him that Ill leave it there for him if he wanted it and I left. I walked around town for a couple of minutes and then headed back to see if he was still there.A man who was sitting in Starbucks most of the time when I was there came out and told me that the man

22、ate the sandwich and that he was touched that I had sat with him like I did. It seems to me that no matter whether something goes awry (非正常的) on the surface, there is always something beautiful at a deeper level.I still remember my friend. I looked for him every time I was in town, but that was the

23、last time I saw him. I hope that I had provided some glimmer of hope that he was not forgotten.56. How did the author feel when she noticed the poor man? A. She felt lonely as a single mother. B.

27、tion with others BEveryone agrees that all the creatures want happiness and are afraid of pain and grief. The question, however, is “What is real happiness?” The desire for happiness has no meaning without understanding the real nature of happiness.Generally, ordinary beings consider sensual pleasur

28、es as happiness, and their actions are directed toward gaining these. According to them, searching for happiness means searching for pleasures of the senses. The question, “What is happiness?”, does not arise（出现） in their hearts, because in their hearts they think of a life full of sensual joys as a

29、 happy life.Some thinkers say, “Happiness does not lie in the objects of enjoyment; happiness or unhappiness lies in the imagination.” To prove their belief they give examples like the following one. A man has a two-storey house. When he thinks of those who have a house with three storeys or more, h

30、e feels unhappy. When he thinks of those who have just a cottage, he feels happy. Such happiness does not lie in possessions（占有物）, but in the imagination. They advise people to take inspiration from those who have few possessions but are quite happy. If you only consider people wealthier than yourse

31、lf, you will always be unhappy.If you want to be happy, they say, look at the poor. But it is unreasonable to hold that happiness lies in the imagination. And it is inappropriate to think that someone is happy if he only imagines himself better than the poor and the unhappy. This attitude also satis

32、fies the sense of pride of possession. This can never be called happiness. Unless we find out where happiness lies, we cannot really become happy.Some ask people to do this or that, and say, “This way your desires will be satisfied. That way you will get what you want and become happy.” People holdi

33、ng these views regard happiness as satisfaction of desires and unhappiness as denial(否定) of such satisfaction.60. The underlined word “cottage” in Paragraph 3 probably refers to _.A. a house in ones imagination B. a modern buildingC. a desired objectD. a small house 61. The author may agree that _.A

34、. by comparing themselves with the poor, people will feel happyB. people wont feel happy without a desire for happinessC. possessing wealth may lead to a sense of prideD. people have to experience pain and grief before finding happiness62. The best title for this passage would be “_”.A. What Is Happ

35、iness? B. How to Get Happiness C. Happiness and Desire D. Happiness and Imagination CA speech is a wonderful opportunity to inform, persuade or entertain. The best speeches often take on a combination of all three of these components（组成部分）. However, before you can go about the writing of a great spe

36、ech, it is important to set goals. Goals keep you，your speech and your audience focused.What a goal isIn the context of a speech, a goal is the purpose of the speech, and what it hopes to accomplish. For example, the goal of a eulogy(颂歌) might be to celebrate the life of a loved one. The goal of a s

37、peech at a political gathering would be to inform the crowd about the political position of a candidate and persuade them to vote and campaign for the candidate in question.Why a goal is importantWithout a goal, a speech is without direction. The goal informs the structure and content of the speech.

38、 For example, if a speech's goal is to convince people that smoking is bad for them, the speech will be structured with persuasive arguments to back up the goal. A speech with a goal of informing the audience will keep the information fair and factual.A goal is incredibly important to the speech

39、's ability to connect with an audience. If the speaker is unaware of the goal of the speech, the audience will likely be unaware as well. This severely reduces the effectiveness of the message.Aside from informing the audience of the content and structure, a speech's goal drives the speaker

40、to greater heights. If a speaker is asked to speak on a specific subject, but never establishes the goal, they won't know where to start in the research, organizing and writing of the speech._If you have been charged with delivering a speech, establishing a goal can seem difficult at first. Ther

41、e are several things to take into consideration. First, think about who you will be speaking to. The demographic(人口统计) of your audience will likely determine whether you will be able to persuade them, or whether they will be able to sit through（一直坐到结束）. Second, think about the topic itself. If the t

42、opic is something controversial（有争议的）, it may worth your while to consider an informative approach to present both sides of the issue. Finally, consider your resources. A speech with an informative or persuasive goal usually requires a great deal of research, and sometimes takes more time to write.6

43、3. According to the passage, what three components does the best speech combine?A. Informing, delivering and entertaining.B. Informing, persuading and entertaining.C. Informing, writing and delivering.D. Informing, writing and persuading.64. The goal of a speech at a political gathering might be _.A

44、. to persuade the audience to vote for a candidateB. to celebrate the life of a person you admireC. to entertain the audience with humor and magicD. to persuade the audience to buy new products65. All the following indicate the importance of a speech goal EXCEPT that _.A. a speech will lose its dire

45、ction without a goalB. a speech goal can help keep the audience aware of the speechC. a speech goal can help the speaker know about the research, organizing and writingD. a speech goal makes it possible for the speaker to achieve whatever he wants in life66. Which of the following can be filled into

46、 the blank as the subtitle for the last paragraph?A. How to achieve a speech goal B. How to deliver a difficult speechC. What to consider to establish a goal D. What to consider to deliver a speechDHans was an honest fellow with a funny round good-humored face. Living alone, every day he worked in h

47、is garden. In all the countryside there was no garden so lovely as his. All sorts of flowers grew there, blooming in their proper order as the months went by, one flower taking another flowers place, so that there were always beautiful things to see, and pleasant odors to smell. Hans had many friend

48、s, the most devoted being the Miller. So devoted was the rich Miller to Hans that hed never go by his garden without plucking a large bunch of flowers or a handful of sweet herbs, or filling his pockets with fruits. The Miller used to talk about noble ideas, and Hans nodded and smiled, feeling proud

49、 of having such a friend. The neighbors thought it strange that the rich Miller never gave Hans anything in return, though he had hundreds of sacks of flour, many cows and sheep, but Hans never troubled his head about these, and nothing gave him greater pleasure than to listen to all the wonderful t

50、hings about the unselfishness of true friendship. In spring, summer, and autumn Hans was very happy, but when winter came, and he had no fruit or flowers to sell, he suffered from cold and hunger. Though extremely lonely, the Miller never came to see him then. “Theres no good in going to see Hans wh

51、ile the snow lasts.” The Miller said to his wife, “When people are in trouble they shouldnt be bothered. So Ill wait till the spring comes when hes happy to give me flowers.” “Youre certainly very thoughtful,” answered his wife, “Its quite a treat to hear you talk about friendship.” “Couldnt we ask

52、Hans up here?” said their son. “Ill give him half my meal, and show him my white rabbits.” “How silly you are!” cried the Miller. “I really dont know whats the use of sending you to school. If Hans came up here, and saw our warm fire, our good supper, and our red wine, he might get envious, and envy

53、 is a most terrible thing, and would spoil anybodys nature. I am his best friend, and Ill always watch over him, and see that hes not led into any temptation. Besides, if Hans came here, he might ask me for some flour. Flour is one thing, and friendship is another, and they shouldnt be confused. The

54、 words are spelt differently, and mean quite different things. Everybody can see that.” He looked seriously at his son, who felt so ashamed that he hung his head down, and grew quite scared, and began to cry into his tea. Spring coming, the Miller went down to see Hans. Again he talked about friends

55、hip. “Hans, friendship never forgets. Im afraid you dont understand the poetry of life. See, how lovely your roses are!” Hans said he wanted to sell them in the market to buy back his things which were sold during the hard time of the winter. “Ill give you many good things. I think being generous is the base of friendship.” said the Miller. “And now, as Ill give you many good things, Im sure youd like to give me some flowers in return. Heres the basket, and fill it quite full.” Poor Hans was afraid to say anything. He ran and plucked all his pretty roses, and fille
