I have a friend who had a stammer (口吃) in his childhood, but he dreamed of becoming a missionary(傳教士). When he told his own desire to his friends and relatives, some of whom laughed at him, and some even held down his enthusiasm .

"I must change it." said the boy angrily, “I believe I can speak very , I will do!"

When it was possible, he would spend an hour to chickens. He viewed the chickens as living persons, himself to be the person in the speech.

"In the beginning, the chickens looked so , then they watched me curiously, putting down the food in the mouths and listening to my words. It seemed as if they had been by my powerful and effective language. Sometimes they seemed to be listening to me . Gradually, the effect of this practice became more and more and I had a better understanding of the exact of my stammer, so I found the ability to speak more."

"You may not know that my father was always tyrannical(專橫的). He believed in the old saying: 'Young man should be more knowledgeable, but should not much.' During the whole childhood, I spoke or commented, he criticized me seriously, which my shy personality. I used to worry about being at, so I became a stammer. From then on, I kept in front of everyone because they didn't want to see my embarrassment. But later I found myself talking in front of chickens, stammers disappeared , therefore I regained my ."

Many people run after goals that they hope will make them happy,but happiness is not always the final result.So how does one decide which goals will end in personal happiness and which will not?How do the things in life affect personal happiness?

 The most important thing is people’s attitude toward life,which can greatly affect their personal levels of happiness and satisfaction with life.

 Psychologists have known for some time that optimism is a good way to fight against unhappiness.It’s probably no secret that optimistic people are considered to be much happier people than pessimists.There are specific characteristic features optimists have (pleasant ways of thinking),that bring them more success,greater health,increased life satisfaction, and other good things.If you became an optimist,it can mean that you became a very happy person,despite your circumstances,and it can actually bring more things into your life to be happy about.“If you are optimistic and you think life is going to get better,it will become a self?fulfillment prediction.” says one of the scientists.“Happy people manage to look on the bright side,even if they meet big problems on their way.”

 Positive psychologists believe that people can learn how to become happy and that everyone can teach themselves to see a half empty glass as half full.All they have to do is to spend time thinking about all the things that have gone right for them,rather than complaining what has gone badly.But people who are depressed usually think and worry about something that went wrong in the past.

1.What can affect people’s personal levels of happiness according to the passage? (No more than 5 words)

________________________________________________________________________

2.Why are some people depressed according to the study? (No more than 14 words)

________________________________________________________________________

There are many reasons that goals go unfulfilled. For many, goal setting is a never ending circle that starts, stops, and begins again. To help us succeed in reaching our goals, let’s examine the reasons why many people fail at reaching them. Here are 7 Reasons That You Won’t Reach Your Goals:

1. You Don’t Have Any Goals

Too many people are afraid to “set” their goals. Afraid of failing. Afraid of disappointment. Well, you definitely won’t complete them if you don’t try. Make a choice and set your goals. Otherwise you will end up wherever life takes you.

2. You Don’t Start

OK, so you have a goal. What have you done about it? Have you started it yet? What are you waiting for? Procrastination is responsible for the failure of many goals.

3. You Aren’t Willing to “Buy” Your Goals

Yes, you have to buy your goals. Why? Because every goal has a price. It has a cost. Time. Money. Sweat. Sacrifice. You will have to “pay” for your goals in some manner.

4. Your Goals Are Unrealistic.

Make sure that your goals are possible and that you set an adequate time frame for success.

5. You Won’t Stick With It

Over half of goals will be given up within 30 days. You set your goals .You started them. And then...you gave up. Are you using life’s daily happenings as excuses? Goals are not reached through one effort. Rather, they are made in small steps over time.

6. You Will Fail...And You Won’t Get Back Up!

No one succeeds immediately. Those who appear to have effortlessly succeeded have usually put in years of preparation and practice. You have to fall down many times before you will succeed. Skill is learned by doing.

7. You Quit Before The Finish Line

Too many people stop...right before the finish line. It’s almost like they are afraid of succeeding. Often a life event is used as the reason for not finishing. Something always comes up before you finish.

Are you reaching your goals? Which of these is keeping you from succeeding? Set your goals. Stay the course. Always get back up when you fail. And make sure you cross the finish line.

1.What’s the author’s purpose of writing this passage?

A. To remind people of the importance of setting life goals.

B. To convince people of keeping to their life goals.

C. To clarify the reasons leading to the failure of achieving goals.

D. To persuade people to have big life goals.

2.What’s the probable meaning of the underlined word “procrastination” in the second tip?

A. hesitation B. delay C. importance D. contradiction

3.According to the passage, you will not reach you goals, if you _______.

A. are not willing to spend money seeking helping hands.

B. do not take time to make plans for them.

C. do not let life take you where it goes.

D. are not afraid of succeeding.

4.What can be learned from the sixth tip?

A. He who has hope has everything.

B. Two heads are better than one.

C. Practice makes perfect.

D. Keeping up contributes to success.

HANGZHOU, April 4 (Xinhua) —Another H7N9 bird flu case has been confirmed in east China's Zhejiang Province, the provincial health department said Thursday, bringing the country's total number of cases to 10.

The patient is a 64-year-old man from Huzhou City. He became ill on March 29 and was admitted to a hospital in Huzhou on March 31.

On Thursday, medical experts confirmed that he was infected with the H7N9 bird flu strain after the provincial center for disease control and prevention said late Wednesday that he tested positive for the virus.

An investigation has found that all 55 people who had close contact with the man have not showed any abnormal clinical symptoms, the department said.

So far, China has confirmed 10 H7N9 cases — four in Jiangsu Province, two in Shanghai Municipality, one in Anhui Province and three in Zhejiang. The two patients in Shanghai and one in Zhejiang have died.

Health authorities and hospitals in many Chinese provinces have been on high alert for H7N9 cases.

In Nanchang, capital of Jiangxi Province, which neighbors Zhejiang, five hospitals have been selected and ordered to be ready to treat H7N9 patients, though no cases have been reported there.

China's health authorities have promised transparency(透明) and cooperation to the World Health Organization (WHO) in regards to human infections of the new strain of bird flu.

On Wednesday afternoon, the National Health and Family Planning Commission distributed prevention and control plans and technique directives(指示)to health institutions nationwide. "So far, the sources of infection have not been clear, but based on past experiences and recent epidemiological (病理學的) studies, the sources could be poultry or the secretion and excrement from poultry," according to the plan.

The Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention said Wednesday that no human-to-human transmission of H7N9 has been discovered and no epidemiological connection between these cases has been found.
