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.
Who is more likely to be unhappy according to the study?

A.The man who is ambitious regardless of his actual situation.
B.The one who has self-esteem and has confidence in himself.
C.The one who can take pleasure in communicating with others.
D.The one who always helps others and also accepts help from others.

答案:A
解析:
细节题。根据文章最后一段内容,幸福的人是既能够树立高远的目标,又不会忘记实际情况的人;幸福的人是自尊、自信的人,他认可自己。并且热爱自由。幸福的人善于社交,并且能够从与其他人进行的广泛交流中得到乐趣;幸福的人热心助人,并且愿意接受别人的帮助。只有A项与文意不符,故选A。

I was waiting for a phone call from my agent. He had left at message the night before, telling me that my show was to be cancelled. I called him several times, but each time his secretary told me that he was in a meeting and that he would call me later. So I waited and waited, but there was still no call. Three hours passing by, I became more and more and impatient. I was certain that my agent didn’t care about my work, and he didn’t care about me. I was overcome with that thought. I started to shout at the phone, “Let me wait, will you? Who do you think you are?”

At that time I didn’t realize my wife was looking on. Without showing her surprise, she rushed in, seized the phone, tore off the wires, and shouted at the phone, “Yeah! Who do you think you are? Bad telephone! Bad telephone!” And she swept it into the wastebasket.

I stood watching her, speechless. What on earth...?

She stepped to the doorway and shouted at the test of the house, “Now hear this! All objects in this room----if you do anything to upset my husband, out you go!”

Then she turned to me. Kissed me and said calmly, “Honey, you just have to learn how to take control.” With that, she left the room.

After watching a crazy woman rushing in and out, shouting at everything in sight , I noticed that something in my mood (情绪) had changed. I was laughing. How could I have trouble with that phone? Her anties helped me realize I had been driven crazy by small things. Twenty minutes later my agent did call. I was able to listen to him and talk to him and talk to him calmly.

56. Why did the author shout at the telephone?

A. He was mad at the telephone.

B. He was angry with his agent.

C. He was anxious about his wife.

D. He was impatient with the secretary?

第4题:

Some young soldiers who had recently joined the army were being trained in modern ways of fighting,and one of the things they were shown was how an unarmed man could trick an armed enemy and take his weapon away from him.First one of their two instructors took a knife away from the other,using only his bare hands;and then he took a rifle away from him in the same way.After the lesson,and before they went on to train the young soldiers to do these things themselves,the two instructors asked them a number of questions to see how well they had understood what they had been shown.One of the questions was this:“Well,you now know what an unarmed man can do against a man with a rifle.Imagine that you are guarding a bridge at night,and that you have a rifle.Suddenly you see an unarmed enemy soldier coming towards you.What will you do?”
The young soldier who had to answer this question thought carefully for a few seconds before he answered,and then said,“Well,after what I have just seen,I think that the first thing I would do would be to get rid of my rifle as quickly as I could,so that the unarmed enemy couldn't take it from me and kill me with it!”

第6题:

根据内容,回答 下面问题:It’s not easy being a teenager-nor is it easy being the parent of a teenager. You can make your child feel angry, hurt, or misunderstood by what you say without realizing it yourself. It is important to give your child the space he needs to grow while making him realize that you’ll still be there for him when he needs you. Expect a lot from your child, just not everything. Except for health and safety problems, such as drug use or careless driving, consider everything else open to discussion. If your child is unwilling to discuss something, don’t insist he tell you what’s on his mind. The more you insist, the more likely that he’ll clam up. Instead, let him attempt to solve (解决) things by himself. Show respect for your teenager’s privacy (隐私). Never read his mail or listen in on personal conversations. Teach your teenager that the family phone is for the whole family. If your child talks on the family’s telephone for too long, tell him he can talk for 15 minutes, but then he must stay off the phone for at least an equal period of time. This not only frees up the line so that other family members can make and receive calls, but teaches your teenager moderation (节制). Or if you are open to the idea, allow your teenager his own phone that he pays for with his own pocket money or a part-time job.

Working for Fun and Profit

1.It's a sunny weekend morning. You decide to take a walk.Everything is quite except for a.group of people and some colorful objects you see about three blocks away.As you get closer,you notice that there are many things lying on the ground:some National Geographic magazines,a collection of toy trucks,some weight lifting equipment,two bicycles,and a set of chairs.People are parking cars,getting out,and looking over the objects in the driveway.You consider taking a detour around the group of people,but you are curious.Was there an accident?Is this a party?No!Welcome to your first garage sale!
2.On the same morning,a friend of yours takes a drive.He makes a mistake at an intersection and takes a wrong turn.He passes a large parking lot full of people,not cars.He sees many multicolored objects.At first he thinks it's an art show. Then he decides it's a fair. He parks his car and gets out to explore.He's just arrived at his first flea market.
3.Garage sales and flea market are popular in the United States.Many Americans find that they can make a little extra money and have fun being"weekend entrepreneurs”.They take outgrown clothing,appliances,toys,and books and resell them at garage sales and flea markets.
4.Flea markets are generally open spaces in or out of town that become busy sales centers on weekends.People who want to sell new or used clothing,tools,furniture,or books rent a space for the day for a small amount of money and sell their merchandise.Shoppers from near and far come to get good buys on imported watches,house plants,magazines,microscopes,children's clothes,and handmade goods such as embroidered pillowcases or jewelry.Some shoppers even buy and sell antiques.They search flea markets for special treasures that they can resell in their own stores for lots of money.
5.Garage sales are smaller than flea markets,and the merchandise consists mainly of household items.Dishes,pots and pans,coat hangers,and children's clothing are inexpensive and common at garage sales. People frequently have garage sales before they move and on weekends when the weather is nice.Sometimes several families gather their unwanted household goods and sell them together. More merchandise attracts more customers.
6.Cleaning,organizing,pricing,and moving merchandise is hard work,but the popularity of flea market and garage sales proves that many Americans work for fun!

People usually have garage sales after they move.
A:Right
B:Wrong
C:Not mentioned

答案:B
解析:
本题给出的信息是正确的。根据题目中的提到的U.S.,使用专有名词定位法,定位到文章第三段:" Garage sales and flea market are popular in the United States.Many Americans find that they can make a little extra money and have fun being 'weekend entrepreneurs'."They take outgrown clothing,appliances,toys,and books and resell them at garage sales and flea markets.”宅前出售和跳蚤市场在美国十分流行。许多美国人发现当“周末企业家”既能赚点外快又能给他们带来乐趣。他们把穿不下的儿童服装、家用器具、玩具和书籍拿到宅前出售或跳蚤市场上重新出售。这与本题所描述的“美国人经常进行宅前出售,卖掉自己不需要的东西”相符,所以选A。
本题给出的信息是错误的。选择题目中关键词popular作信息定位,依旧定位到文章第三段,重点在第二句话:" Many Americans find that they can make a little extra money and have fun being ' weekend entrepreneurs'.”许多美国人发现当“周末企业家’,既能赚点外快又能给他们带来乐趣。这句话解释了上一句提到的跳蚤市场和宅前出售受美国人欢迎的原因。这与本题所描述的“跳蚤市场和宅前出售受美国人欢迎的原因是它们能清除一些不需要的东西”相悖,所以选B。
本题给出的信息是错误的。本题题干为:“跳蚤市场通常在繁忙的销售中,心开办”,而在第四段第一句作者提到:" Flea markets are generally open spaces in or out of town that become busy sales centers on weekends.”跳蚤市场通常设在城里或郊外的空地上,一到周末这就变成了忙碌的销售中心。题目和文章内容相悖,所以选B0
文章没有谈到这方面的信息。文章在第四段的确提到了很多物品被拿来买卖,但是并没有具体提到发卡。本题所描述的“各种东西,甚至是发卡,都被人们拿到跳蚤市场上来卖”超出了文章所述范围,所以选C。
本题给出的信息是正确的。第四段最后两句提到:" Some shoppers even buy and sell antiques .They search flea markets for special treasures that they can resell in their own stores for lots of money.”有的购物者还买卖古董。他们在跳蚤市场上搜罗一些特别的珍品,然后在自己的商店里用高价再次卖出。所以,题干所说的“有些时候,在跳蚤市场上可以买到物美价廉的东西”是正确的,所以选A。
本题给出的信息是错误的。题干的意思是:“人们通常在搬走以后进行宅前出售。”原文中与之相关的信息出现在第五段第三句“People frequently have garage sales before they move and on weekends when the weather is nice.”人们常常在搬家之前和天气晴朗的周末举办宅前出售。而这句恰恰证明了题干的说法是错误的,所以选B。
本题给出的信息是错误的。题干的意思是:“要移动货物很容易。”在原文最后一段的第一句话中,作者提到:" moving merchandise is hard work"搬运货物很累。这也印证了题干的说法是错误的,所以选B。

The young soldier told the instructor that__.

A.the important thing was to be brave
B.the important thing was to save your life
C.the important thing was to have a gun
D.the important thing was to know the trick

答案:B
解析:
