One effective way of destroying happiness is to look at something and focus on even the smallest fault. It's like looking at the tiled(鋪瓦的) ceiling and concentrating on the space where one tile is 小題1: .
Once I heard a bald(禿頭的) man said. “Whenever I enter a room,  小題2:  I see is hair." Once you've   小題3: what your missing tile is, explore whether getting it will   小題4:  make you happy. Then do one of the three things: get it, replace it with a different  小題5:  , or forget about it and  小題6:  the tiles in your life that are not missing.
We all know people who have had a relatively  小題7:  life, yet are often unhappy while people who have suffered a great deal but  小題8:  remain happy.
The first  小題9:  is gratitude. All happy people are  小題10: . Ungrateful people cannot be happy. We tend to think that being unhappy leads people to  小題11:  , but it's truer to say that complaining leads to people becoming unhappy.
The second secret, is 小題12: that happiness is a byproduct(副產品) of something else. The most obvious 小題13: are those pursuits(追求) that give our lives purpose—anything 小題14: studying insects to playing baseball. The more passions we have, the more happiness we are  小題15: to experience.
Finally, the belief that something permanent goes beyond us and that our  小題16:  has some larger meaning can help us to feel happier. We   小題17: a spiritual faith, or a philosophy of life. Whatever your philosophy, it should 小題18:  this truth: if you choose to find the 小題19: in every situation, you will be blessed, and if you choose to find the awful, you will be cursed. As with happiness itself, this is  小題20:   your decision to make.

I was sitting in the room reading when I heard a loud noise. To defend my home from break-in, I picked up my defense weapon--- a broom and went out. There on the roof of my porch(門廊), I saw a grey fluffy squirrel. I drove her away with the broom, but the next day I heard her again.
I searched squirrels on the net and found because their teeth keep growing, they have to constantly chew on things to shorten their teeth. This was disturbing so I asked my husband to call in some wildlife control people.
On Monday morning two men showed up, with guns in their hands. I pointed uneasily to the hole in my porch roof. They held up their guns. Suddenly I saw in my mind the baby nursery inside. I stopped them and confirmed that they wouldn’t harm her. They hesitated, but finally put down their guns. Then they brought out a bottle of deodorizer(除臭劑)and sprayed it into the squirrel’s home. They told me she would not like the smell and would leave.
There was no sign of Mrs. Squirrel, so they blocked the hole, took my cheque for $250 and left. Shortly after they left, Mrs. Squirrel returned from her shopping trip. She was mad at being driven out and began feverishly clawing at the porch roof. In order to stop the destruction of my home, I drove her away with the broom again.
Each day thereafter, Mrs. Squirrel continued her attack on my possession. I then called the company to report that “SHE’S BAAAAAACK…” The receptionist said that if Mrs. Squirrel had managed to find another way into my porch roof, it would be a new charge. I replied I couldn’t continue contributing my husband’s hard-earned income to their silly wildlife experts and hang up.
I went to the porch and banged on the roof. Mrs. Squirrel came out and glared at me. We negotiated some terms, came to an agreeable arrangement and went back into our respective homes.
All is quiet these days, although large quantities of materials have been removed from my garage wall and my daughter claims that some of her doll-house furniture has disappeared. I still hope that Mrs. Squirrel would leave, but I will wait until it is warmer and hopefully until after the birth of the little ones.
小題1:What did the author think of the squirrel at first?
A.Troublesome.B.Dangerous.C.Interesting.D.Clever.
小題2:Why didn’t the author ask the wildlife control people to come again?
A.She worried about the safety of the squirrel.
B.She thought the company charged too much.
C.She decided to drive away the squirrel herself.
D.She doubted the ability of the wildlife control people.
小題3:What can we learn from the passage?
A.Getting rid of the squirrel needs patience.
B.The squirrel has destroyed the author’s house.
C.The author has developed affection for the squirrel.
D.The author singed an agreement with Mrs. Squirrel.
小題4:The author has written the passage in a (an) ________ way.
A.persuasiveB.seriousC.informativeD.amusing

Flowers only bloom(開花) when they are planted in the right soil. That is also true for me.
I first moved to Foxboro, Massachusetts, as a single mother with my baby daughter, Darcy. I was drawn to its New England beauty, friendly people and rich history. It happened that there were a lot of forsythia(連翹) bushes around the house in which I lived just like my childhood home. I joined St. Mark’s Episcopal Church where I taught the Sunday school. At church, I met my second husband, Dean. For more than 25 years, I bloomed in Foxboro, and I had another two children.
Then, when Darcy was a few years out of college, she moved to Alameda, California, to be near friends. I missed her badly. A year later my beloved husband Dean had deadly cancer. He only made it eight months. My heart was broken. Later I moved to Alameda with my children. It was a beautiful Victorian island, and I was grateful to spend more time with Darcy. I even attended a church and made a few friends there. Still, I couldn’t help but miss Foxboro. It had everything and everyone I loved.
One spring day, when I was walking by a school, something yellow caught my eyes. Forsythia bushes! They made me homesick and I kept back my tears. “I miss you, Foxboro,” I whispered. Then I went into a shop and looked at some ceramic(陶瓷的) pots lined up on a shelf. A large white one seemed to catch my attention. “That’ll be perfect in my living room,” I thought.
I turned it over to look at the price. Instead I found these words: “New England Pottery, Foxboro, Massachusetts.” A piece of artwork, from my second hometown, was right here. It was able to spread across the country and so were forsythia bushes. I took it as a sign that I can bloom, right where I am.
小題1:From the text we learn that the author ____.
A.gave birth to three children in Foxboro
B.planted forsythia bushes around her house
C.got to know her second husband at church
D.worked as a middle school teacher in Foxboro
小題2:The author moved to Alameda so that she could ____.
A.have more time together with Darcy
B.forget the sorrow at her husband’s death
C.visit her children at Alameda College frequently
D.enjoy the beautiful scenery on the Victorian island
小題3:When the author saw forsythia bushes at a school she _____.
A.wanted to buy a ceramic pot to put them in
B.thought of her life in Foxboro
C.felt they would look great in her living room
D.believed they were real art work
小題4:Why does the author compare herself to flowers?
A.Because she wanted to show she likes flowers.
B.Because she can live in any place that is right like flowers.
C.Because she moved across the country just like flowers.
D.Because girls are like flowers that are blooming.

I never thought I would have a life-changing experience at Wal-Mart.
Although my thoughts were only on speed, the checkout line I was standing in wasn’t moving as quickly as I wanted, and I glanced toward the cashier. There stood a man in his seventies, wearing glasses and a nice smile. I thought, well, he’s an old guy!
For the next few minutes I watched him. He greeted every customer before scanning the items. Sure, his words were the usual, “How’s it going?” But he did something different—he actually listened to people. Then he would respond to what they had said and engage them in brief conversation.
I thought it was odd (古怪的). I have grown accustomed to people asking me how I was doing simply out of robotic conversational habit. After a while, you don’t give any thought to the question and just say something back. I could say, “I just found out I have six months to live,” and someone would reply, “Have a great day!”
But that wasn’t the end. He gave them the change, walked around the counter, and extended his right hand in an act of friendship. He looked the customers in the eyes. “I sure want to thank you for shopping here today,” he told them. “You have a great day. Bye-bye.”
The looks on the faces of the customers were priceless. There were smiles and some sheepish grins (咧嘴一笑). All had been touched by his simple gesture—and in a place they never expected. They would gather their things and walk out, smiling.
Of course, he did the same to me and I got to know his name, Marty.
56. 小題1:The checkout line the writer was standing in moved slower than expected because ________.
A.the cashier couldn’t work as fast as others
B.there were some big purchases
C.the cashier did more than scanning the items
D.the writer was not patient enough
57.小題2:According to the writer, when common people ask you “How’s it going?”________.
A.they don’t really care what you may answer
B.they are just practicing their conversation ability
C.they are asking about your private information
D.they don’t expect to hear any negative answers
58.小題3:What was most customers reaction on Marty’s behaviors?
A.They thought it priceless.B.They were in some way moved.
C.They thought it awful and odd.D.They felt somewhat annoyed..
59.小題4:What does the writer intend to express through the text?
A.Our everyday life is always full of surprises.
B.Most customers enjoy being treated this way.
C.Being different is a good way of doing business.
D.A little positive action can make a big difference.

The Man was very sad. He knew that the Cat's days were numbered. The doctor had said there wasn’t anything more that could be done, and that he should take the Cat home and make him as comfortable as possible.
A tear rolled down the Man’s cheek and landed on the Cat’s forehead, The Cat gave him a slightly annoyed look. “Why do you cry, Man?” the Cat asked. “Because you can’t bear the thought of losing me? Because you think you can never replace me?” The Man nodded “yes”.
“Pick up that piece of string from the floor. There, my ‘toy’. The Man reached over and picked up the string. It was about two feet long and the Cat had been able to entertain himself for hours with it. “Now take each end of the string in one hand,” the Cat ordered. The Man did so.
“The end in your left hand is my birth and the end in your right hand is my death. Now bring the two ends together,” the Cat said. The man did so. Then the Cat continued, “You have made a continuous circle. Does any point along the string appear to be different, worse or better than any other part of the string?” The Man inspected the string and then shook his head.
“Close your eyes.” the Cat said. “Now lick your hand.” The Man widened his eyes in surprise. “Just do it,” the Cat said. “Lick your hand, think of me in all my familiar places, and think about all the pieces of string.”
Licking his hand, he discovered what a cat must know, that licking a paw is very calming and allows one to think more clearly. He continued licking and the corners of his mouth turned upward into the first smile he had shown in days. He waited for the Cat to tell him to stop, and when he didn’t, he opened his eyes. The Cat’s eyes were closed. The Man stroked(輕撫) the warm, brown fur, but the Cat was gone.
One day, not long after, there was a new cat on his lap. She was a lovely white cat. It is very different from his earlier beloved Cat and very much the same.

When I was learning calligraphy (書法), my teacher told me a story.
A calligrapher taught handwriting. One of his students who often practiced handwriting with old sheets of newspaper complained that he made very little progress though he had learned it with the calligrapher for a long time. His teacher said to him, “Try to use the best paper. Maybe you'll write better.”
The student did as he was told. It really worked. He made headway not long afterwards and felt curious. He asked his teacher about the reason. The calligrapher answered,“When you used old newspaper to practice handwriting, you would think you were writing a draft. It didn't matter if you wrote badly as old newspaper was plenty in supply. In that case you wouldn't pay much attention to it. Now you use the best paper and you'll treasure it. Each time you write you feel strongly about the rarity of chances and you'll devote to it with all your heart and soul; you'll do the handwriting much more attentively than practicing. Of course you've made rapid progress.”
Indeed, we spend our ordinary days just as they are worthless “old newspaper”.We don't care if we scrawl and waste it, thinking that it will come endlessly—the “old newspaper” is inexhaustible. In such a mood we may each day pass by opportunities but fail to catch any of them.
Life is not a military exercise but an actual war in which real weapons are used. In everyday life there's no chance for us to draft. That's because what we call “draft” actually is the answer sheet we write that cannot be changed.
Every day of our life is something new. Let us take every day as a sheet of the best paper.
小題1:The calligrapher in the story told the student to write on the best paper because he thought ________.
A.the student would practice more carefully on the best paper
B.it was comfortable to write on the best paper
C.the student had enough money to buy the best paper
D.the student could write more on the best paper
小題2:The student didn't make much progress at first because ________.
A.he didn't follow his teacher's advice
B.he was too poor to buy better paper to write on
C.he regarded his writing on old newspaper just as a draft
D.he was not used to the calligrapher's teaching manner
小題3:We learn from the passage that ________.
A.the student finally gave up
B.the student made rapid progress by practicing more carefully
C.the calligrapher was strict with his students
D.old newspaper is not useful
小題4:Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A.What teachers say is always true.
B.Success calls for attentiveness.
C.Handwriting is easy to practice.
D.New things are always better than old ones.
小題5:The writer wants to tell us that ________.
A.there are some good ways to practice handwriting
B.life is like old newspaper
C.we should learn from the student in the story
D.life will not give us a chance to draw a draft

A fried of mine named Paul received an automobile from his brother as a Christmas present. On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office, a naughty street boy was walking around the shiny new car, admiring it. “Is this your car, Mister?” he asked..
Paul nodded, “My brother gave it to me for Christmas.” The boy was surprised. “You mean your brother gave it to you and it didn’t cost you anything? I wish…” He hesitated(猶豫).
Of course Paul knew what he was going to wish for. He was going to wish he had a brother like that. But what the boy said made Paul think all the way.
“I wish ,” the boy went on, “that I could be a brother like that.”
Paul looked at the boy in surprise, adding, “Would you like to take a ride in my automobile?”
“Yes, I’d love that.” After a short ride, the boy turned and said, “Mister, would you mind driving in front of my house?”
Paul smiled, He thought he knew what the boy wanted. But Paul was wrong again. “Will you stop where those two steps are?” the boy asked.
He ran up the steps. Then in a while Paul heard him coming back, but he didn’t come fast. He was carrying his little crippled(傷殘) brother.
