We let ourselves believe that life will be better once we are married, have a baby, then another. Then we get frustrated because our children are not old enough and that all will be well when they are older. Then we are frustrated because they reach teenage years and we must deal with them. Surely we'll be happier when they grow out of the teen years.

We tell ourselves our life will be better when our spouse (配偶) gets his/her act together, when we have a nicer car, when we can take a vacation, when we finally retire. The truth is that there is no better time to be happy than right now. If not, then when? Your life will always be full of challenges. It is better to admit as much and to decide to be happy in spite of it all.

For the longest time, it seemed that life was about to start—real life.

But there were always some obstacles along the way, an ordeal (苦難) to get through, some work to be finished, some time to be given, a bill to be paid. Then life would start. I finally realized that those obstacles were part of life. Little by little, that point of view also helped me see that there isn't any road to happiness.

Happiness is the road. So, enjoy every moment. And keep in mind that __________. So stop waiting for school to end, for a return to school, to lose ten pounds, to gain ten pounds, for work to begin, to get married, for Friday evening, for Sunday morning, waiting for a new car, for your mortgage(借款) to be paid off, for spring, for summer, for fall, for winter, for the first or the fifteenth of the month, for your song to be played on the radio, to die, to be reborn… before deciding to be happy.

Happiness is a voyage, not a destination. There is no better time to be happy than… NOW! Live and enjoy the moment.

The most proper title for the passage should be______.

A. Happiness Is a Frustration      B. Happiness Is a Destination 

C. Happiness Is a Dream         D. Happiness is a Process

The first two paragraphs mainly tell us_______.

A. life is a worthwhile but challenging voyage       

B. so long as you believe you can, you can

C. people tend to think the future will be brighter than now 

D. people feel confused about their life

The writer thinks _______is a real happiness

A. setting our imagination free     B. enjoying our present life

C. finding our own shortcut to success  D. facing obstacles and challenges bravely

Imagine that the genome (基因組) is a book. The book consists of 23 chapters with thousands of stories made up of paragraphs, words and letters on different levels. There are one billion words in the book, which makes it longer than 5,000 volumes the size of this book, or as long as 800 Bibles. If I read the genome out to you at the rate of one word per second for eight hours a day, it would take me a century. If I wrote out the human genome, one letter per millimeter, my text would be as long as the River Danube. This is an enormous document. A huge volume, a cook book of great length, and it all fits inside the extremely small nucleus (核) of a tiny cell that fits easily upon the head of a pin.

The idea of the genome as a book is not, strictly speaking, even a metaphor (比喻), It is true to a great extent. A book is a piece of digital information, written in one-directional form and defined by a code that translates a small alphabet of letters into a large dictionary of meanings through the order of their groupings. So is a genome. The only complication is that all English books read from left to right, while some parts of the genome read from left to right, and some from right to left, though never both at the same time.

While English books are written in words of different lengths using twenty-six letters. Genomes are written entirely in three-letter words, using only four letters, And instead of being written on flat pages, they are written on long chains of DNA molecules (分子), The genome is a very clever book, because in the right conditions it can both photocopy itself and read itself.

How do human genomes read according to the passage?

       A. Only from left to right.    B. Only from right to left.

       C. From both directions at the same time   D. From one direction at a time

We can learn from the passage that the human genome ______.

       A. is as long as the River Danube

       B. can be easily placed on the head of a pin

       C. is coded with and alphabet of four letters

       D. is smart enough to read and take photos of itself

It can be concluded that the passage is mainly written for ______.

       A. specialists in the field      B. general readers

       C. natural scientists        D. readers with academic background

The real purpose of the author’s comparison of the genome to a book is ______.

       A. to focus on the differences between the two

       B. to lay emphasis on the similarities between the two

       C. to simplify the concept of the human genome

       D. to give an exact description of the human genome

Even facts “forgotten” by people during a busy day may be retrieved if this is followed by a good night’s sleep.

Researchers from the University of Chicago asked volunteers to remember simple words．Many found their memories letting them down towards the end of the day, but the following morning, those who had slept well could recall much more.

Researchers, writing in the journal Nature, said the brain could “rescue” lost memories during the night.

When the brain is first asked to remember something that memory is laid down in an “unstable” state, meaning that it is possible that it could be lost．At some point, the brain consolidates those it deems important into a “stable”, more permanent state．However, the Chicago researchers suggested that it was possible for a “stable” memory to be made “unstable” again．This would mean that memories could be modified then filed away again in the face of new experiences.

The 12 volunteers tested in the experiment were played words created through a speech synthesizer which were purposely difficult to understand．Initially, the written version of the word  from the audio version only．Tests revealed that the ability to recall the right word tended to tail off as the day ended.

However, when the volunteers were retested after a good night’s sleep, they were able to recall some words that they had “ forgotten” the previous evening.

Dr Daniel, one of the study authors, said: “Sleep consolidates memories, protecting them against subsequent interference or decay．Sleep also appears to “recover” or restore memories.” He said: “If performance is reduced by decay, sleep might actively recover what has been lost.”

Dr Karim Nader, from the Department of Psychology in McGill University in Montreal, said: “Memory research is undergoing a transformation---no longer is memory thought to be a hard-writing of the brain, instead it seems to be a process of storage and restorage.”

Sleep helps some memories “mature” and also prunes out unimportant memories.

What does the first paragraph implies?

       A．A busy day makes people forget things easily.

       B．People need a good night’s sleep after a busy day.

       C．A good night’s sleep helps memories.

       D．A good night’s sleep helps people forget a busy day.

The words the 12 volunteers played in the experiment were not ____

       A．created through a speech synthesizer

       B．hard to understand

       C．a(chǎn)vailable at the beginning

       D．designed to test people’s ability of understanding

According to the passage, memory_____

       A．is a hard-writing of the brain

       B．is not a process of storage

       C．is not a process of restorage

       D．will be mature with the help of sleep

Which of the following is NOT true?

       A．When people first remember something, the memory is in an “unstable state”.

       B．The brain will change those important unstable memories into stable.

       C．Once the memory become stable, it will never become unstable again.

       D．Sleep can protect memories from being harmed.
