You can choose happiness regardless of your circumstances. You can choose to be happy no matter what challenges life brings you. Let the following simple strategies guide you back to your natural happy state.
Make lemonade when life gives you lemons.
Besides happiness, trouble will also be part of life. It's how you choose to react to your situations that make the difference. If you look at something hard enough, you 'll see the positive side of it.
Do what you love doing.
Do you have a lifelong dream or desire? If so, start working towards it. Taking baby steps towards a goal will help you feel like you're accomplishing something. You'll find drive and determination to reach that goal when it's something you love doing.
Use one of your talents.
One reason why so many people are unhappy is that they 're not doing what they're called to do with their God-given talents. Each of us has a purpose in life. You have natural talents to help you achieve your purpose, so use your talents effectively.
Call a friend who you know is positive and cheerful.
Talk about your feelings and listen to their advice. Usually, people allow themselves to go deeper and deeper into self-depression. The truth is that you don 't have to be sad. You can decide to be happy. You just have to make up your mind to do so.
Gratitude is the quickest cure for sadness.
When you focus on what's wrong with your life, you forget to look at what's right and good. Take a step back and reflect on your life. Do you have children or family to be thankful for? Yes, they may not be the person we 'd like them to be, but imagine life without them. Now, be thankful that you have them in your life.
Let your feelings out on paper.

I stole your dog today. No, I didn 't set a foot on your house, but from the condition of your dog, I can imagine what it looks like ⋯the word “rubbish ” comes to mind.
I found her along a road, with a heavy chain wrapped around her neck, still attached to rotten boards from her doghouse. Not only did I know that most of the town people had already ignored her, judging by where I found her, but I knew that if she had gotten into the Woods, the "cross" that she dragged behind her would have wrapped around a tree until starvation or thirst killed her. She has a beautiful name now. Already in the first week she has come to look more like she should. Her eyes sparkle and she has learned to wag her tail in greeting. She has stopped flinching （ 畏缩 ） when I make a sudden movement, because she knows now that I won ' t beat her, in fact, she rarely leaves my side. She e 've s n become brave enough to bark at a cat and today I watched from the window as she attempted to play with the other dogs. No, it ' cl s ear she does not miss you or her former life on a chain.
It ' n s ot clear yet whether she'll remain here or whether I ' flilnd her a loving home where she can count on more individual attention than I can give her, but one thing is certain, this is one bit of stolen “property ” who is never returning to you. So sue me, accuse me, plead with the courts that she is rightfully yours ... I'm convinced this is the best “crime ” I 've ever committed. Hardly anything has pleased me more than the day I stole your dog. I need only look into her beautiful brown eyes to know that she 'd defend my decision with her life. If we have one prayer, it is that you will not replace her, and if we have one special day to celebrate together, it is the day I stole your dog and the day she stole my heart.

People from East Asia tend to have more difficulty than those from Europe in distinguishing facial expressions---and a new report published online in Current Biology explains why.
Rachael Jack, University of Glasgow researcher, said that rather than scanning evenly （均匀的） across a face as Westerners do, Easterners fix their attention on the eyes.
“ Weshow that Easterners and Westerners look at different face features to read facial expressions,”Jack said. “Westerners look at the eyes and the mouth in equal measure, whereas Easterners favor the eyes and neglect （忽略） the mouth. ”
According to Jack and her colleagues, the discovery shows that human communication of emotion is more complex than previously believed. As a result, facial expressions that had been considered universally recognizable cannot be used to reliably convey emotion in cross-cultural situations.
The researchers studied cultural differences in the recognition of facial expressions by recording the eye movements of 13 Western Caucasian and 13 East Asian people while they observed pictures of expressive faces and put them into categories: happy, sad, surprised, fearful, disgusted, angry, or neutral. They compared how accurately participants read those facial expressions using their particular eye movement strategies.
It turned out that Easterners focused much greater attention on the eyes and made significantly more errors than did Westerners. T“he cultural difference in eye movements that they show is probably a reflection of cultural difference in facial expressions, ” Jack said. “Our data suggest that whereas Westerners use the whole face to convey emotion, Easterners use the eyes more and mouth less. ”
In short, the data show that facial expressions are not universal signals of human emotion. From here on, examining how cultural factors have diversified these basic social skills will help our understanding of human emotion. Otherwise, when it comes to communicating emotions across cultures, Easterners and Westerners will find themselves lost in translation.
45. The discovery shows that Westerners ___ .
A. consider facial expressions universally reliable
B. pay equal attention to the eyes and the mouth
C. observe the eyes and the mouth in different ways
D. have more difficulty in recognizing facial expressions
46. What were the people asked to do in the study?
48. In comparison with Westerners, Easterners are likely to ___ .
A. do translation more successfully
B. study the mouth more frequently
C. examine the eyes more attentively
D. read facial expressions more correctly
49. According to the passage, we can infer that the researcher, Rachael Jack, .
A. is a student in University of Glasgow
B. studies the fields related to biology or cultures
C. has published a new report on human rights
D. shows that facial expressions are universal signals of human emotion
50. What can be the best title for the passage?
A. The Eye as the Window to the Soul
B. Effective Methods to Develop Social Skills
C. How to Increase Cross-cultural Understanding
D. Cultural Differences in Reading Emotions

A review from the International Programme on the State of the Ocean (IPSO) warns that the oceans are facing multiple threats. They are being heated by climate change, turning slowly less alkaline ( 碱性的 ) by absorbing CO2, and suffering from overfishing and pollution.
The report says, W “e have been taking the ocean for granted. It has been shielding us from the worst effects of accelerating climate change by absorbing excess CO2 from the atmosphere. ”
Although the temperature increases may be experiencing a pause, the ocean continues to warm regardless. For the most part, however, the public and policy makers are failing to recognize --- or choosing to ignore --- the severity of the situation. Coral reefs, for instance, are suffering from the higher temperatures.
IPSO, funded by charitable foundations, is publishing a set of five papers based on workshops in 2011 and 2012 in partnership with the International Union for Conservation of Nature. The reports call for governments all over the world to halt( 暂

They want the governments to negotiate a new agreement for the sustainable fishing in the high oceans to be monitored by a new global high seas enforcement agency.
The IUCN's Prof Dan Laffoley said, “ Whattheselatest reports make abso lutely clear is that delaying action will increase costs in the future and lead to even greater, perhaps permanent
losses ”.The UN climate report confirmed that the ocean is bearing the pressure of human-induced changes to our planet. These discoveries give us not only more cause for alarm, but also a roadmap for action. We must use it.

第Ⅱ卷（非选择题共35 分）
IV. 阅读表达（共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，满分10 分）阅读下面短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。

French poet Victor Hugo（1802-1885）once said: “To learn to read is to light a fire; every syllable that is spelt out is a spark. ”
Today, when we read books, road signs and posters, it 's probably hard to imagine that only half a century ago, about 40 percent of the world 's adults were still illiterate, according to data from UNESCO. This means that two out of every five adults could neither read nor write in the 1960s. In other words, the “sparks”that now light up our
world failed to do the same for theirs.
In response to this situation, UNESCO decided to name Sept. 8 as International Literacy Day, starting from 1967. Every year, the day is celebrated to highlight the importance of literacy and the progress that has been made, which itself is huge --- in 2016, the global adult literacy rate rose to 86 percent, while the youth literacy rate was as high as 91 percent, according to UNESCO.
This raises a question:If the mission to boost literacy has basically been accomplished, why do we still celebrate this day?
The truth is that the definition of “literacy ” keeps changing. For example, the theme for 2007 and 2008 International Literacy Day was “ Literacy and health ” ,which targeted people's ignorance of diseases like HIV and malaria（疟疾）. For 2017，the emphasis was placed on “Literacy in a digital world ，becaus”e not knowing anything about the internet in today 's world is just like lacking basic reading abilities in the 1960s --- it ' s the “ new illiteracy ”.
The focus for this year's International Literacy Day will be “ Literacyand skills development ”. But the skills in question are not job-specific skills, such as those required to be an electrician or carpenter. Instead,the focus will be on “ transferable skills ---”communication, critical thinking, multitasking, teamwork, and creativity, to name a few. These are the things that allow us to do our job well --- any job.
This echoes what Greek philosopher Socrates said almost 2,500 years ago: “ Education is the kindling of a flame, not the filling of a vessel. ”
And with more people become literate, it 's only a matter of time before their small flame turns into a big fire.

57. The theme of this year's International Literacy Day will be“Literacy and skills
