21、   Most people want to be happy, but few know how to find happiness. Money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness. Aristotle, a Greek thinker, said “Happiness depends on ourselves.” In other words, we make our own happiness. Here are a few suggestions to help you to be happier.

The first secret of happiness is to enjoy simple things in life. Too often, we spend so much time thinking about the future-for example, getting into college or getting a good job-that we fail to enjoy the present. You should enjoy life’s simple pleasures, such as reading a good book, listening to your favorite music, or spending time with close friends. People who have several close friends often live a happier and healthier life.

Another secret to live a happy life is to be active, and to have hobbies where you forget your problems and time. Many people experience this through dancing, or playing a sport, such as swimming. You can forget about your problems, and only think about the activity.

Finally, many people find happiness in helping others. Studies show that people feel good when they spend their time helping others. If you want to feel happier, do good things for someone. You can help a friend with his or her studies. You can go shopping to buy food for an elderly person, or just help out around the house by washing the dishes.

【1】What’s the best title of the passage?

A．Money Makes You Happy

B．The Secrets of Happiness

C．Ideas for Helping Other People to Be Happy

D．Good Friends Make You Happy

【2】The second paragraph tells us that ________.

A．the more friends you have, the happier you will be

B．we shouldn’t think about our future

C．happiness is to enjoy simple things in life

D．some people fail to live a happy life

【3】The writer thinks that ________.

A．everyone knows how to live a happier life

B．it’s wrong to spend time on work

C．hobbies take up too much time

D．doing good things for someone can make you happier

【4】Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?

A．Travelling to a foreign country.

B．Reading a good book.

C．Playing a sport.

D．Spending time with close friends.

22、   A wise man was visiting a village with his students. He found a group of family members shouting in anger at each other. He turned to his students and asked: “Why do people shout at each other?”

His students thought for a while, and one of them said: “Because when we lose our calm, we shout.”

“But, why should you shout when the other person is just next to you? You can just as well tell him what you have to say in a soft voice,” said the wise man.

Students gave some other answers but none were any good.

“When two people are angry at each other, their hearts become distanced（疏远的）, ” the wise man explained. “To cover that distance they must shout to be able to hear each other. The angrier they are, the louder they will have to shout to hear each other and cover that great distance. ”

The wise man then gave an example: “What happens when two people fall in love?” They don’t shout at each other, but talk softly because their hearts are very close. When they love each other even more, what happens? They don’t need to talk. They only look at each other and that’s enough.

He looked at his students and said: “So when you argue, do not let your hearts get distant. Do not say words that distance you from others. Otherwise, there will come a day when the distance is so great that you will not find the path to return.”

【1】What does the word They refer to?

A．the two angry men

B．the group of family members

C．the two people who fall in love

D．the students

【2】One of the students thinks people shout at each other because ________.

A．they are not friends

B．they don’t like each other

C．they lose their calm

D．they are far from each other

【3】What’s the main idea of the passage?

A．We shout to make us heard.

B．We shout because we lose our calm.

C．When two people fall in love, they talk softly.

D．When we argue, don’t let hearts became distant.

I do not know who 【1】(write)those words, but I like them as a reminder that the future can be anything we want to make it. We are all like the farmers. It is our 【2】(one) duty to plant crops. If we plant 【3】 good seed, we will get a good harvest(收获). If our seed is poor and the field is full of weeds, we will get a【4】(use)crop. If we plant nothing a【5】 all, we will harvest nothing.

I want the future to be 【6】(good)than the past. I don't want it polluted by the 【7】(mistake) with which history is filled. We should all be concerned (关心) about the future because that is where we will spend the r【8】 of our lives.
