閱讀理解

　　A friend of mine, in response to a conversation we were having about the injustices of life, asked me the question, “Who said life was going to be fair, or that it was even meant to be fair?” Her question was a good one．It reminded me of something I was taught as a youngster：Life isn’t fair．It’s disappointing, but it’s absolutely true．One of the mistakes many of us make is that we feel sorry for ourselves, or for others, thinking that life should be fair, or that someday it will be．It’s not and it won’t．

　　One of the nice things about surrendering(屈從)to the fact that life isn’t fair is that it keeps us from feeling sorry for ourselves by encouraging us to do the very best we can with what we have．We know it’s not “l(fā)ife’s job” to make everything perfect, it’s our own challenge．Surrendering to this fact also keeps us from feeling sorry for others because we are reminded that everyone is dealt a different hand; everyone has unique strengths and problems in the process of growing up, facing the reality and making decisions; and everyone has those times that they feel victimized or unfairly treated．

　　The fact that life isn’t fair doesn’t mean we shouldn’t do everything in our power to improve our own lives or the world as a whole．To the contrary, it suggests that we should．When we don’t recognize or admit that life isn’t fair, we tend to feel pity for others and for ourselves．Pity, of course, is a self-defeating emotion that does nothing for anyone, except to make everyone feel worse than they already do．When we do recognize that life isn’t fair, however, we feel compassion(熱情)for others and for ourselves．And compassion is a heartfelt emotion that delivers loving-kindness to everyone it touches．The next time you find yourself thinking about the injustices of the world, try reminding yourself of this very basic fact．You may be surprised that it can persuade you out of self-pity and into helpful action．

(1)

The writer thought of his friend’s question as a good one because ________．

[　　]

A．

he also wanted to know who held such an opinion

B．

it made him recall something during his childhood

C．

like his friend, he also thought life was unfair

D．

he learned something from the question as a youngster

(2)

Surrendering to the fact that life isn’t fair will ________．

[　　]

A．

keep us from making everything perfect

B．

keep us from doing everything in our power

C．

make us face unfair treatment bravely

D．

make us know it’s our duty to perfect things

(3)

The second paragraph of the passage mainly tells us that ________．

[　　]

A．

it’s nice to accept the injustice of life

B．

it’s nice to surrender to the life

C．

we should not surrender to the life

D．

we should not feel sorry for everything

(4)

In the last paragraph, “this very basic fact” refers to the fact that ________．

[　　]

A．

you should not pity for others

B．

life isn’t and won’t be fair

C．

compassion is heartfelt emotion

D．

pity is a self-defeating emotion

Being a good neighbor matters – not only because it makes life more pleasant, but also because being a good neighbor is part of being a good person.

Being a good neighbor has a lot to do with respecting privacy. It's often best to mind your own business, give neighbors a lot of space and try to sense when it' s appropriate to back off. But it' s just as important to know when the time is right to give a hand. Helping with physical work is one good way to establish trust. If your neighbor is going to be moving some heavy furniture, or needs help fixing something you know your way around, offer to help out. Once you' re getting familiar, this assistance can also extend to things like house -sitting or collecting the mail while your neighbor is away. If you have a close relationship with your neighbors, the day may come when you' re asked to take care of their kids. Should you accept, you'll probably end up playing with and entertaining these children.

It should go without saying that pet owners need to care for their animals properly. This includes cleaning up after them. There are few things more annoying for neighbors than a dog that uses their lawns（草坪）as a toilet，or that barks endlessly while chained up in a backyard. Don’t mess around – be a kind and responsible pet owner·

There are times when a certain level of noise is fine and there are times when it isn’t – and it’s good to know the difference. Turn the music down a bit after sundown，and further reduce the volume as it gets toward 10 p.m. It’s usually fine to throw an occasional loud party as long as the neighbors are invited or have been informed.

                                               The State of Marriage Today
    Is there something seriously wrong with marriage today? During the past 50 years, the rate of divorce
in the United States has exploded: almost 50％of marriages end in divorce now, and the evidence
suggests it is going to get worse, if this trend continues. It will lead to the breakup of the family, according
to a spokesperson for the National Family Association. Some futurists predict that in 100 years, the
average American will marry at least four times and extramarital affairs (婚外戀) will be even more
common than they are now.
    But what are the reasons for this, and is the picture really so depressing? The answer to the first
question is really quite simple: marriage is no longer the necessity it once was. The practice of marriage
has been based for years partly on economic need. Women used to be economically dependent on their
husbands as they usually didn't have jobs outside the home. But with the rising number of women in
well-paying jobs, this is no longer the case, so they don't feel that they need to stay in a failing marriage.
    In answer to the second question, the prospects may not be as pessimistic as they seem. While the
rate of divorce has risen, the rate of couples marrying has never actually fallen very much, so marriage is
still quite popular. In addition to this, many couples now cohabit(同居) and don't bother to marry. These
couples are effectively married, but they do not appear in either the marriage or divorce statistics. In fact, more than 50％of first marriages survive. The statistics are unreliable because there is a higher number of
divorces in second and third marriages than in first marriages.
So is marriage really an outdated practice? The fact that most people still get married indicates that it isn't. And it is also true that married couples have a healthier life than single people: they suffer less from stress
and its consequences, such as heart problems, and married men generally consider themselves more
satisfied than their single counterparts. Perhaps the key is to find out what makes a successful marriage
and apply it to all of our relationships!
1. What does "this is no longer the case" in paragraph two mean? 
A. It is not necessary to get married any more. 
B. Women do not need a husband any longer. 
C. Women are not economically dependent any more. 
D. Many wives do well-paying jobs outside home now.
2. Why may the prospects of marriage not be as depressing as it appears? 
A. Many people still like to get married.

The State of Marriage Today

    Is there something seriously wrong with marriage today? During the past 50 years, the rate of divorce in the United States has exploded: almost 50％of marriages end in divorce now, and the evidence suggests it is going to get worse, if this trend continues. It will lead to the breakup of the family, according to a spokesperson for the National Family Association. Some futurists predict that in 100 years, the average American will marry at least four times and extramarital affairs(婚外戀) will be even more common than they are now.

    But what are the reasons for this, and is the picture really so depressing? The answer to the first question is really quite simple: marriage is no longer the necessity it once was. The practice of marriage has been based for years partly on economic need. Women used to be economically dependent on their husbands as they usually didn’t have jobs outside the home. But with the rising number of women in well-paying jobs, this is no longer the case, so they don’t feel that they need to stay in a failing marriage.
