7、 How often do you change your hairstyle or ask for new dresses? You may be  1  to follow trends（潮流）in Western countries, but young people in the United States don’t care as much about   2  as you do.

A recent survey(調(diào)查) among high school   3  in China, Japan, South Korea and the US found that   4   teenagers care more about their appearance than young people in the US.

What’s   11 , US students showed more individuality（個(gè)性）, with 88 per cent   12   that “people should follow their own interests rather than   13  of others”. This is much   14  than South Korea’s 69 per cent, China’s 49 and Japan’s 48.

Japanese students, at 52 per cent, are most dissatisfied with modern society. Chinese and Koreans follow at second and   15  most dissatisfied.

“  16  to the survey, Chinese students are happy and disciplined (有紀(jì)律的). They have a strong wish to make a difference.   17  Chinese students need to be more independent and learn how to relax,” said Sun.

The students have different   18   backgrounds. But home and places where friends gather are the favorite places all teens seek happiness.

6、Some time ago, I discovered that one of my chairs had a broken leg. I didn’t think there would be any difficulty in getting it mended, as there are a whole lot of antique (古董) shops near my home. So I left home one morning carrying the chair with me. I went into the first shop expecting a friendly reception (接待). I was quite wrong. Then man wouldn’t even look at my chair.

The second shop, though slightly more polite, was just the same, and the third and, the fourth-so I decided that my approach（手段） must be wrong.

I went into the fifth shop with a plan in my mind. I placed the chair on the floor and said to the shopkeeper, “Would you like to buy a chair?” He looked it over carefully and said, “Yes, not a bad chair. How much do you want for it, sir?” “Twenty pounds,” I said. “OK,” he said, “I’ll give you twenty pounds.” “It’s got a slightly broken leg,” I said. “Yes I saw that, it’s nothing.”

Everything was going according to plan and I was getting excited. “What will you do with it?” I asked. “Oh, it will be easy to sell once the repair is done.” “I’ll buy it,” I said. “What do you mean? You’ve just sold it to me,” he said. “Yes, I know but I’ve changed my mind. I’m sorry, I’ll give you twenty-seven pounds for it.” “You must be crazy,” he said. Then, suddenly the penny dropped. “I know what you want。You want me to repair your chair.” “You’re right,” I said. “And what would you have done if I had walked in and said, ‘Would you mend this chair for me’?” “I wouldn’t have agreed to do it,” he said. “We don’t do repairs, not enough money in it and too much trouble. But I’ll mend this for you, shall we say for a fiver（5英鎊）?” He was a very nice man and was greatly amused (感到有趣) by the whole thing.

4、What is it that makes people happy? Youth, health, a good job, good looks, a flash car? None of these things, Spanish experts say.

     The concept（概念） of happiness is thought to be determined by genetics, while the rest depends on childhood environment and the process（過(guò)程） of growing up. Perhaps the most surprising thing about happiness is coming under increasingly close examination in Spain.

As the nation rises to the club of the world's wealthiest countries, people are discovering that material（物質(zhì)的） things do not bring happiness.

     "Most people use money as a measure of human value," says Jesus Ynfante, author of a book on Spain's 300 biggest fortunes.  "Expensive products are regarded as the best. The rich are admired simply for being rich," Ynfante said.

     Yet psychologists（心理學(xué)家） warn that happiness as a moment of ecstatic pleasure(狂喜)--something that, by definition（定義） ,cannot last--while others speak of it as peace and acceptance of oneself. Polls(問(wèn)卷調(diào)查) in different countries indicate that between 65 and 85 percent of the world's population regard themselves as reasonably happy.

     Around 40 percent of a person's happiness is that it has little to do with age, health, wealth, or other values thought to be important in Western society. For most Spaniards, happiness is linked with feeling close to other people. Happy people accept their limitations and set themselves reachable goals, experts say.

     There are life-style choices that favor happiness, such as exercise, eating carbohydrates and exposing oneself to sunlight. But the main secret of happiness is to take pleasure in small things.

     “If you are given a choice between eternal（永久的)happiness and a cheese sandwich, take the sandwich,” advises musician Julian Hernandez.

3、Jupiter is the largest planet in our solar system. It is also one of the most interesting. It was named after Jupiter, the most important of the Roman gods, and nicknamed the “King of Planets.” It is the fifth planet from the sun and the fourth brightest object in the sky. Before the invention of the telescope, Jupiter was thought to be a bright star.

In 1610, the famous astronomer Galileo realised that Jupiter was actually a planet. He also noticed that it had four large moons. These are known as the Galilean moons. The biggest is Ganymede, and it is larger than the planets Pluto and Mercury. Next in size is Callisto, which is the farthest away from Jupiter. It is the closest to the planet, and has a lot of active volcanoes. The smallest of the Galilean moons is Europa. Europa is covered in ice, and scientists believe there may be an ocean underneath.

Galileo's discovery that Jupiter was not a star but a planet was very important. Before this time, people believed the Earth to be the centre of the universe. They thought that the sun, stars, and other planets all revolved around the Earth. However, Galileo proved that the sun was at the centre of the universe!

(A) Jupiter is farther out in the solar system than Earth, so it takes longer to revolve around the sun. (B) However, a day on Jupiter is much shorter, only 9.8 Earth hours. (C) This is because it spins(旋轉(zhuǎn)) a lot faster than the Earth does. (D)

Another of Jupiter's interesting features（特性） is its “Great Red Spot.” On the surface of the planet is a large red spot. The spot is actually a huge storm like a hurricane, but bigger. It covers an area twice as big as the Earth and has been going on for at least 400 years!

1. What is the passage mainly about?

A. Features of the planet Jupiter.

B. Differences between Jupiter and other planets.

C. Galileo's accomplishments in astronomy（天文）.

D. How Jupiter moves in the solar system.

2. According to Paragraph 3, why is Galileo's discovery important?

A. Because Jupiter was thought to be smaller than Earth.

B. Because people knew that Earth is not the only planet.

C. Because it meant that the planet goes around the Earth.

D. Because it proved that Earth is not the centre of the universe.

3. The underlined word “revolved” in the third paragraph is closest in meaning to       .

A. approached    B. stopped     C. sped up    D. circled

4. Where would the following sentence best fit into Paragraph 4, (A), (B), (C) or (D)?

  This means that one year on Jupiter is as long as 11.6 Earth years.
