1、   Have you ever complained( 抱 怨 )why life is so tiring? Does the sky sometimes seem dark to you? Are your lessons sometimes not successful? Well, friends, cheer up and smile all the time. If you see the world with your warm heart, you will find the whole world smiling to you

一个晴朗的早上，你计划散散步来放松自己。Just before you go out, it suddenly starts to rain. Maybe you would feel very sad and start to complain about the weather. But dear friends, why not sit down and listen to the free concert that the nature brings you? And with the timely rain, crops (庄稼)in the field will grow better and farmers will have a good harvest(收获).

Although everyone wants to succeed in what he tries to do. Life isn’t a bed of roses, then, it's very common to meet difficulties on the way to success. In fact, difficulty isn't terrible. The real terrible thing is that we are afraid of it. Difficulty is like a spring (弹簧).If you are weak, it will be strong. So when you meet difficulties, don’t give up.相反，你应该微笑着面对困难。Attitude decides everything. With an optimistic(乐观的) attitude, life is easy and pleasant. If you want to be happy, try to remember these five easy rules. Free your heart from hate; Free your mind from worries:

Live an easy life; Give more; Expect less. The quickest way to receive happiness is to smile. The fastest way to lose it is to complain.

24、   You’re rushing to school and a man ahead of you suddenly falls down. Do you stop to help? In a study of bystanders, it was found that some people look away or keep on walking rather than stop and get involved.

“There is an inclination(倾向) to decide that no action is needed,” says Ervin Staub, a psychologist at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, who studies the role of bystanders. “ The first thoughts that come into your mind often keep you from offering help.”

Time and again, good and caring people fail to come to the aid of others. They know they should act and yet, for reasons they themselves don’t understand, people sometimes don’t respond. Longtime researchers of bystander behavior continue to struggle with the question, “Why?”

One thing we do know is that the more ambiguous a situation is, the less likely people are to help. Let’s say you see vapors(水汽) coming out of a building. You ask yourself, “Is it steam(蒸汽) or smoke?” If you are not sure, you look to other people for a clue about how to react. If you see other people doing nothing, you think, “Of course, that’s just steam.” You don’t want it to be smoke, because then you would have to do something about it.

Another one is known as “ the bystander effect”. This says that the more people there are observing an emergency, the less responsible each one of them personally feels. For example, if you are the only person in the world who can act to save someone in a dangerous situation, you are more likely to act. However, if you are one of 100,000 people who could save the situation, you would be happier if one of the other 99,999 people did it!

“If you notice trouble, force yourself to stop and judge the situation instead of walking on,” says Ervin Staub. Then try to involve other people; you don’t have to take on all the responsibility of being helpful. According to Staub, it is sometimes just a matter of turning to the person next to you and saying, “It looks like we should do something.” Once you take action, most people will follow you and also offer help.

【1】Ervin Staub probably agrees that _____.

A. the bystanders force them to solve the troubles

B. people’s first thoughts usually prevent them from helping

C. the researchers often lead to the embarrassment

D. the person next to you often asks you to deal with emergency

【2】The word “ambiguous” in Paragraph 4 probably means “_____”.

A. difficult B. dangerous C. unclear D. unpleasant

【3】The writer uses “ the bystander effect” to show that _____.

A. people usually think others a lot before the difficulties

B. people like to carry out the responsibility in emergency

C. people often share their ideas when they’re in dangerous situations

D. people are likely to behave in the same way as most other people do

【4】Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

A. Is it important to offer help?

B. Is it difficult to get involved?

C. To stand there or take actions?

D. To change the decision or stick it?

25、

A. B. C. D.

26、   Smart Phone, Poor Sight

Look around and you’ll see people busy on their smart phones. Smart phones do make our lives easier. But have you ever thought about what they mean to your eyes?

According to a study, half of British people own smart phones now and they spend an average of two hours a day using them. There has been a 35% increase in the number of people in the UK who suffer from short-sightedness since smart phones were introduced there in 1997.

Staring (盯) at smart phones screen for long time gives you dry eyes. When looking at something in the distance, your eyes automatically blink (自动眨眼) a certain number of times. However, when you look at things closer to your face, the blinking slows down. This reduces the amount of tears and causes discomfort in your eyes. Another bad habit is using smart phones in dark rooms before going to sleep. If you look at a bright screen while your pupils (瞳孔) become larger, too much light enters your eyes. This can do harm to the eyes and cause a disease called glaucoma (青光眼).

While you’re probably not going to stop using your smart phone, there are a few things you can do to protect your eyes. Hold your phone at least 30 centimeters away from your eyes when using it. Take a break every hour and try the following: look at something at least five meters away from you and then focus on the tip of your nose. Repeat this several times. It should reduce the discomfort in your eyes.

【1】The article is mainly about ________.

A. how to use smart phones

B. the harm that smart phones do to users’ eyes

C. the reason why teenagers get short-sightedness

D. advantages and disadvantages of smart phones

【2】From Paragraph 2，we learn that ________.

A. half of the British people began to use smart phones 22 years ago

B. each of the British people spends two hours a day on smart phones

C. more British people have suffered from short-sightedness since 1997

D. the number of British people who own smart phones increases by 35%

【3】Using smart phones improperly may cause ________.

A. too many blinks B. more tears in the eyes

C. smaller pupils D. dry eyes and glaucoma

【4】If you use your eyes for a long time, which of the following is not a good way to relax?

A. Holding your phone at least 30 centimeters away from your eyes.

B. Taking a break every hour.

C. Sleeping for an hour.
