Maybe it is true that we don't know what we have got until we lose it, but it is also true that we don' t know what we have been missing until it arrives. Giving someone all your love is never an assurance that they will love you back. Don’t expect love in return; but be content that love has grown in your own heart.It takes an hour to like someone, a day to love someone, but it takes a lifetime to forget someone. Don’t rely on one's appearance; it can deceive. Don’t rely on wealth; even that fades away. Rely on someone who makes you smile, because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright. There are moments in life when you miss someone so much that you just want to pick them from your dreams and hug them. Dream what you want to dream; go where you want to go; be what you want to be, because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want to do. May you have enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trials to make you strong, enough sorrow to keep you human, enough hope to make you happy.Always put yourself in others' shoes. If you feel that it hurts you, it probably hurts others, too. The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the most of everything that comes along their way. Happiness waits for those who cry, those who have been hurt, those who have searched, and those who have tried, for only they can appreciate the importance of people who have touched their lives.The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past. You can't go on well in life until you let your past failures and heartaches go off. When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling. Live your life so that when you die, you are the one who is smiling and everyone around you is crying.(1)You should rely on someone who makes you smile_______________.A、because a smile can make your dark time easier.B、because a smile is bright.C、because you have nothing.D、because you can believe someone(2)What does the word “assurance” mean in the first paragraph?A、returnB、promiseC、maintainD、storage(3)In the third paragraph, “Always put yourself in other's shoes” means_______________.A、you should try other's shoes before you buy it.B、you should make yourself small enough.C、you should consider from another person's aspect.D、None of the above.(4) If you are the one who is smiling and everyone around you is crying when you die, you areA、SatisfiedB、UpsetC、SadD、Indifferent(冷漠的)(5)What has been mentioned in the passage?A、to tell us not to demand too muchB、to warn us not to believe in appearanceC、to consider other people and learn to forgiveD、all of the above

Many people, including some policemen, believe eye contact is a good test of honesty. If someone can't look at you directly in the eye, then he or she is not playing honestly, they insist. After many experiments, however, a number of experts have found out that good liars can make false eye contact.Eye contact, though not a sure sign of dishonesty, is a clear way to show interest in another person. When a person looks at you and continues to do so, you know his attention is placed on you. When he turns his head away, his mind is probably elsewhere. But there are exceptions. A shy person may have trouble making and keeping eye contact, no matter how interested he is in the other person. And certain nationalities, such as the British and Germans, are much less oriented to eye-to-eye contact than, say, the French and the Arabs.Eye contact should be natural, not forced or overdone.Have short periods of eye contact while you watch other parts of the person's face — especially the mouth. When the person smiles, be sure to smile back. But always make an effort to return your gaze to the person's eyes as she speaks. It is common to look up, down, and all around when speaking to others, and not have eye contact at all times.Too much eye contact, especially if it is forced, can work against you. If you stare at a person, or leer in a suspicious way, the other person may feel uncomfortable and even suspicious about your intent. A fixed stare can seem like aggressive behavior. if it is a challenge as to who will look away first.(1)Many people believe that eye contact is a sign of ___________.A、honestyB、dishonestyC、attentionD、A and C(2)According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true?A、Eye contact is a way to show interest in another person.B、When a person looks at you, his attention is placed on you.C、When a person fails to make eye contact, he is definitely not interested in you.D、It is common to look up, down, and all around when speaking to others.(3)While we watch other person's face, we should have short periods of eye contact with, especially, other people's _____________.A、eyesB、noseC、mouthD、ears(4)Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A、Eye contact is not a good test of honesty.B、Some people may have trouble making and keeping eye contact, no matter how interested he is in the other person.C、If someone can look at you directly in the eye, he or she is playing honestly.D、A number of experts have found out that no one can make false eye contact.(5)This passage mainly discusses ________________.A、how to test one is honest or not by the way of eye contactB、how to make eye contactC、how to avoid too much eye contactD、the function of correct eye contact

Passage 2It is natural for young people to be critical of their parents at times and to blame them for most of the misunderstandings between them. They have always complained, more or less justly, that their parents are out of touch with modern ways; that they are possessive and dominant; that they do not trust their children to deal with crises; that they talk too much about certain problems—and that they have no sense of humor, at least in parent-child relationships.I think it is true that parents often misunderstand their teenage children and also forget how they themselves felt when young.Young people often anger their parents with their choices in clothes and hairstyles, in entertainers and music. This is not their intention. They feel cut off from the adult world into which they have not yet been accepted. So they create a culture and society of their own. Then, if it turns out that their music or entertainers or vocabulary or clothes or hairstyles anger their parents, this gives them additional enjoyment. They feel they are superior, at least in a small way, and that they are leaders in style. and taste.Sometimes you are resistant and proud because you do not want your parents to approve of what you do. If they do approve, it looks as if you are betraying your own age group. But in that case, you are assuming that you are the underdog: you can’t win but at least you can keep your honor. This is a passive way of looking at things. It is natural enough after long years of childhood, when you were completely under your parents’ control. But this way of looking at things ignores the fact that you are now beginning to be responsible for yourself. If you plan to control your life, co-operation can be part of that plan. You can charm others, especially your parents, into doing things the way you want. You can impress others with your sense of responsibility and initiative, so that they will give you the authority to do what you want to do.26. The author is primarily addressing _______.A. teachersB. teenagersC. parentsD. authorities

Many people think that when they become rich and successful, happiness will naturally follow. Let me tell you that nothing is further from the truth. The world is full of very rich people who are as miserable as if they were living in hell. We have read stories about movie stars who committed suicide or died from drugs. Quite clearly, money is not the only answer to all problems. Wealth obtained through dishonest means does not bring happiness. Lottery winnings do not bring happiness. Gambling winnings do not bring happiness. To my mind, the secret to happiness lies in your successful work, in your contribution towards others’ happiness and in your wealth you have earned through your own honest effort. If you obtain wealth through luck or dishonest means, you will know that it is ill-earned money. If you get your money by taking advantage of others or by hurting others, you will not be happy with it. You will think you are a base person. Long-term happiness is based on honesty, productive work, contribution, and self-esteem. Happiness is not an end; it is a process. It is a continuous process of honest, productive work which makes a real contribution to others and makes you feel you are a useful, worthy person. As Dr. Wayne wrote, “There is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way.” There is no use saying “Someday when I achieve these goals, when I get a car, build a house and own my own business, then I will be really happy.” Life just does not work that way. If you wait for certain things to happen and depend on external circumstances of life to make you happy, you will always feel unfulfilled. There will always be something missing.1.What does “nothing is further from the truth” mean?A、 Something. is completely untrue.B、 Something is completely true.C、 We can find out the truth.D、 We cannot find out the truth.2.What are the secrets to happiness in the author’s mind?A、 successful workB、 contribution to other’happinessC、 honest effortD、 all of the above.3.Which of the following is not dishonest means for wealth?A、 lottery winningB、 gambling winningsC、 hard workD、 taking advantage of others4.What does the sentence “There is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way.” mean according to the passage?A、 Happiness is not an end; it is a process.B、 People do not know how to get happiness.C、 It is hard to get happiness.D、 Happiness is what you feel.5.What is the meaning of the word “unfulfilled”?A、 uncontrolableB、 impoliteC、 dissatisfiedD、 abnormal

(阅读理解题)Advertising is a form. of selling. It makes you want to buy a product or a service. In order to attract your interest it uses various approaches. One is the emotional approach. For example, consider an advertisement for a blanket. It is beautifully printed in full color. It shows a young woman looking dreamily at a pretty blanket. “To you a blanket is more than a source of warmth,” it says. “You need beauty as well as a good night’s sleep.” Looking at the advertisement, you may feel flattered. You may feel yourself different from those who buy blankets simply for warmth. And so you may want to have one yourself. In the same way, a man may buy a certain make of car just because he wants to impress his friends. This seems ridiculous, of course, since people buy a car as a means of transportation. But there are many people who secretly feel that a certain car will give them prestige. To realize this, you have only to look at TV commercials in which nice-looking cars are shown together with people everyone admires. On the contrary, when a man buys a delivery truck for his business that is not the case. Here he will not try to seem important as he may when he buys a luxury car. What he has in mind is a truck that will do its job efficiently. Similarly, a woman buying a refrigerator will not be led by her emotions so easily. She wants to know such facts as how much food it can hold and whether the food is easy to reach. In such cases, advertising is generally straightforward. It gives you the facts about a product rather than an idea. Generally, advertisements use either the emotional or the rational approach, or a combination of the two. Advertising reflects our way of living. This is one reason why an American university has recently set up a place storing historical records for TV commercials that have been used in the past. They will be useful in learning why people really behaved, thought, and acted as they did in the days when these commercials appeared on TV.(1).What does advertising sell?A、A product or a serviceB、Emotion or rationC、Facts or ideasD、Impression or prestige.(2).What will you feel when looking at the advertisement at which a beauty is looking dreamily?A、to be worriedB、to be relaxedC、to be praised and pleasedD、to be cheated(3).Which “make” in the following sentences is the same as the one (underlined) in Para. 2?A、My parents always make me do my homework before I go outB、With blood pouring from his leg, he made it to a nearby houseC、It’s one of the most popular makes of satellite phone on the marketD、None of the above(4).Which of the following commodities should use the emotional approach in advertising according to the passage?A、delivery truckB、carC、refrigeratorD、washing machine(5).According to the passage, which of the following statement is NOT true?A、Advertising can help us to know how people live in the pastB、The emotional approach focuses on the customers’ feelings while the rational approach concentrates on the products’ functionsC、What you buy should make others think highly of youD、To some degree, TV commercials can help people make decisions.

For example, a sign at the bus helps you to know which bus to take. A sign on the door helps you where to go in or out. Have you ever thought that there are a lot of signs around you and that you receive messages from them all the time? People can communicate in many other ways.

Passage TwoThe letter you write is your personal representative. It takes your place when circumstances make it impossible for you to be there in person. It goes to the hospital to cheer a sick friend. It goes to your hostess to thank her for entertaining you. It conveys your best wishes, congratulations, condolences--when you are not able to do so in person.A friendly letter is like a visit on paper. If you "hate to write letters", it's simply because you have not yet discovered the fun it can be to write and receive letters that are good talk on paper. Many people neglect to answer letters from relatives and friends. To a letter unanswered is like saying, "I don't think you are worth the time and effort it takes to write a letter."36. According to the passage, when you can't come to a certain place in person, you can ______.A. send somebody else insteadB. make a telephone callC. send a telegraphD. write a letter

A proverb from ancient China was widely spread in the West: "If you want to be happy for a few hours, go to get drunk; if you want the happiness to last three years, get married; if you want lifetime happiness, take up gardening." The reason for the last is this: Gardening is not only useful, but it helps you to identify yourself with nature, and thus brings you new joy each day besides improving your health.
A research of a US university that I′ve read gives a definition of happiness as what makes a person feel comfortably pleased. To put it simply, happiness is an active state of mind where one thinks one′ s life is meaningful, satisfactory and comfortable. This should be something lasting rather than transitory.
Lots of people regard it the happiest to be at leisure. But according to a study, it is not a person with plenty of leisure but one at work that feels happy, especially those busy with work having little time for leisure. Happiness does not mean gains one is after but a desire to harvest what one is seeking for. People often do not treasure what they already have but desire what they cannot get. That is somewhat like a man with fond dreams of numerous lovers while unwilling to settle down with the woman beside him.
Happiness is a game balancing between two ends--what one has and what one wishes for, i.e. one′s dream and the possibility to realize it. The study comes to this conclusion: A happy man is one who aims high but never forgets his actual situation; one who meets challenges that develop his ability and potentiality; one who′s proud of his achievements and the recognition given to him. He has self-respect and self-confidence; treasures his own identity and loves freedom. He is sociable and enjoys wide range communication with others; he′s helpful and ready to accept assistance. He knows he is able to bear sufferings and failures; he is sensible enough to get fun from daily work. He is a man capable of love and passion.
According to the passage, gardening can bring lifetime happiness because _____________.A.it is a profitable business
B.it can strengthen gardeners' ability to remark nature
C.a gardener can enjoy a very happy marriage
D.nature is a source of joy forever

Five ways to make conversation with anyone Conversations are links,which means when you have a conversation with a new person a link gets formed and every conversation you have after that moment will strengthen the link.You meet new people every day:the grocery worker,the cab driver,new people at work or the security guard at the door.Simply starting a conversation with them will form a link.Here are five simple ways that you can make the first move and start a conversation with strangers.41.____________Suppose you are in a room with someone you don’t know and something within you says“I want to talk with this person”—this is something the mostly happens with all of us.You wanted to say something—the first word—but it just won’t come out.It feels like it is stuck somewhere,I know the feeling and here is my advice just get it out.Just think:that is the worst that could happen?They won’t talk with you?Well,they are not talking with you now!I truly believe that once you get that first word out everything else will just flow.So keep it simple:“Hi”,“Hey”or“Hello”—do the best you can to gather all of the enthusiasm and energy you can,put on a big smile and say“Hi”。42.____________It’s a problem all of us face:you have limited time with the person that you want to talk with and you want to make this talk memorable.Honestly,if we got stuck in the rut of“hi”,“hello”,“how are you?”and“what’s going on?”you will fail to give the initial jolt to the conversation that’s can make it so memorable.So don’t be afraid to ask more personal questions.Trust me,you’ll be surprised to see how much people are willing to share if you just ask.43.____________When you meet a person for the first time,make an effort to find the things which you and that person have in common so that you can build the conversation from that point.When you start conversation from there and then move outwards,you’ll find all of a sudden that the conversation becomes a lot easier.44.____________Imagine you are pouring your heart out to someone and they are just busy on their phone,and if you ask for their attention you get the response“I can multitask”.So when someone tries to communicate with you,just be in that communication wholeheartedly.Make eye contact,you can feel the conversation.45.____________You all came into a conversation where you first met the person,but after some time you may have met again and have forgotten their name.Isn’t that awkward!So remember the little details of the people you met or you talked with;perhaps the places they have been to the place they want to go,the things they like,the thing the hate—whatever you talk about.When you remember such thing you can automatically become investor in their wellbeing.So the feel a responsibility to you to keep that relationship going.That’s it.Five amazing ways that you can make conversation with almost anyone.Every person is a really good book to read,or to have a conversation with!45选？A.Just say itB.Be presentC.Pay a unique complimentD.Name,places,thingsE.Find the“me too”s
F.Skip the small talk
G.Ask for an opinion

Searching for Smiles1 Ask most people anywhere in the world what they want out of life and the reply will probably be:"to be happy."Ed Deiner,an American psychology professor,has spent his whole professional life studying what makes people happy,comparing levels of happiness between cultures and trying to find out exactly why we enjoy ourselves.2 Many people would say that this question does not need an answer.But Professor Deinerhas one anyway."If you're a cheerful,happy person,your marriage is more likely to last,and you're more likely to make money and be successful at your job.On average,happy people have stronger immune（免疫的）systems, and there is some evidence that they live longer."3 So who are the world's happiest people?It depends on how the word is defined.There is individual happiness,the sense of joy we get when we do something we like.But there isalso the feeling of satisfaction we get when we know that others respect us and approve of how we behave.According to Professor Deiner,the Western world pursues individual happiness while Asia prefers mutual satisfaction.4 "In the West, the individualistic（个人主义的）culture means that your mood matters much more than it does in the East.People ask themselves,what can I do that's fun orinteresting?They become unhappy when they can't do any of these things.If you ask people from Japan or China if they are happy,they tend to look at what has gone wrong in their lives.If not much has gone wrong,then they are satisfied."5 People from Spain and other Spanish-speaking countries had the happiest culture,Professor Deiner found."The biggest cultural difference is to do with pride and shame.Hispanic（西班牙语言的）cultures report much more pride and much less shame than others."6 Income also made a big difference to people's happiness,but only at the lowest levels.Average income earners in the US were much happier than people in poverty.But millionaires were only a little bit happier than people on average incomes.It seems that money makes us happy when we have enough to feel secure.7 But can we be too happy?

"You get people who are actually happy,but they think happiness is so important that they try to be even happier.This desire to be always happy isa product of individualism,where the emphasis is on you individually,your emotions and feeling good.People can end up feeling unhappy because ordinary happiness is not good enough for them."According to Professor Deiner,some people feel unhappy because they cannot appreciateA:a questionB:ordinary happinessC:individualismD:cultural differencesE:muchF:illnesses

第三篇It is natural for young people to be critical of their parents at times and to blame them for most of the misunderstandings between them.They have always complained,more or less justly,that their parents are out of touch with modern ways;that they are possessive and dominant;that they do not trust their children to deal with crisis;that they talk too much about certain problems;and that they have no sense of humor,at least in parent-hild relationships.I think it is true that parents often underestimate their teenage children and also forget how they themselves felt when young.Young people often irritate their parents with their choices in clothes and hairstyles,in entertainments and music.This is not their motive.They feel cut off from the adult world into which they have not yet been accepted.So they create a culture and society of their own.Then,if it turns out that their music or entertainments or vocabulary or clothes or hairstyles irritate their parents,this gives them additional enjoyment. They feel they are superior,at least in a small way,and that they are leaders in style and taste.Sometimes you are resistant and proud because you do not want your parents to approve of what you do.If they did approve,it looks as if you are betraying your own age group.But in that case, you are assuming that you are the underdog:you can't win but at least you can keep your honor. This is a passive way of looking at things.It is natural enough after long years of childhood,when you were completely under your parents' control. But it ig而res the fact that you are now beginning to be responsible for yourself.If you plan to control your life,cooperation can be part of that plan.You can charm others,especially your parents,into doing things the way you want.You can impress others with your sense of responsibility and initiative,so that they will give you the authority to do what you want to do.Teenagers do not want their parents to approve of whatever they do because they_________.A:have been accepted into the adult worldB:feel that they are superior in a small way to the adultsC:are not likely to win over the adultsD:have a strong desire to be of independence
