Ⅱ.阅读理解(满分27分)

A

Although the countless differences lie between people’s characters and careers, or their likes and dislikes, it seems that we are all connected (连接) in this wonderful life by one thing—the pursuit (追求) of happiness.

For me, happiness is horse riding and spending with my friends. Some people are at their happiest at home, while others find their happiness through traveling in foreign lands. Happiness can be as simple as a surprise bunch of fresh flowers or really strong coffee, just when you need it most. Sometimes, happiness comes from spending time with loved ones; at other times, it’s having a quiet night at home, with nothing but a movie and a comfortable bed.

Since it comes in so many shapes and sizes, it’s sometimes easy to take happiness for granted. Maybe you overslept, missed the bus and had to walk to school in the rain, only to be told off for being late. Or perhaps, because of work, you had to cancel plans with friends, despite (尽管) looking forward to seeing them for ages. Forgotten keys, delayed flights, an argument with your parents, untimely illness or injury…All of these make you feel unhappy.

Luckily, there are a few simple ways to make the glass seem half-full again. To start with, things like trying out cycling or walking instead of driving to work and listening to music are great mood-boosters. Volunteering and getting involved with a charity (慈善) are two ways in which you can become happier through helping others. Last but certainly not least, trying hugging（拥抱）your way to happiness; it’s been suggested that we humans need at least five hugs a day. If you’ve been having a bad day, there’s nothing better than a good bear hug. 1．What is the main idea of Paragraph 2?

A．Happiness means different things to different people.

B．Flowers can easily surprise someone

C．One man’s meat is another man’s poison.

D．Happiness is getting what you need.

2. To tell us that people are easy to take happiness for granted, the author ______.

A．does an experiment B．tell an interesting story

C．gives some examples D．show some difficulties

3．By “ make the glass seem half-full again”, the author means “______”.

A．make up for your loss B．refill the glass half full

C．help you seem like a positive man D．make you feel happy again 4．What is the best title for the text?

A．Wealth and happiness B．The pursuit of happiness

C．How to find pure happiness D．Don’t ignore simple happiness

B(七选五)

Bedrooms are very important. In fact, you spend one third of your life in yours. This means that you probably don’t want a boring bedroom. You will not want a bedroom full of so many things that you can’t get to your bed, or that is painted in your least favorite color. 5
