As we grow older and gain more wisdom through the
years,we may find that things at work or in life make us tired and sad.In fact,everything that happens in our lives is just a series of events.It's how we treat these events that shapes our lives. Happiness depends on ourselves.
Give without taking
This can be one of the most powerful things.You can try to give a homeless man $10because he needs it more than you do.Let a person cut in front of you in line at the supermarket because they are clearly having a tiring day.These are examples of giving without taking.
Exercise
If you aren’t exercising right now,you need to start.Exercise can be in the form of walking,jogging,cross training or playing tennis.The key is to start moving your body.You will feel better and look better.What's more,you will feel more confident, active and happier.
Reduce negativity
This is much easier said than done because it is everywhere,such as endless news or angry drivers.So,how do we reduce these things and be happy?Take a break from them.Turn off the TV early and stop talking to your friend who only wants to complain.
Smile
This sounds very useless,but it's so true.Most of us find it hard to form a kind smile.Maybe we give a quick nod or“hello”when we meet a stranger,but there is a great deal of power and warmth in offering smile.
Smile can make all of us feel happy.

“Don't speak of it,please,replied the Woodman."I have no heart,you know,so I am careful to help all those who may need a
friend,even if it happens to be only a mouse.”
“Only a mouse!”cried the little animal angrily.Why,I am a Queen——the Queen of all the Field Mice!
“Oh，indeed，“said the Woodman，making a bow(鞠躬).
"So you have done a great thing,as well as a brave one,in saving my life," added the Queen.
At that moment several mice were running up as fast as their little legs could carry them,and when they saw their Queen,they shouted:
Oh,Your Majesty,we thought you would be killed!How did you manage to run away from the great Wildcat?
"and they all bowed so low to the little Queen that they almost stood upon their heads.

Fifteen years ago,United Nations Educational Scientific and Cultural Organization(UNESCO)passed a convention(公约)for protecting intangible cultural heritage(ICH，非物质文化遗产).Since then，508items from122countries have been added to UNESCO＇S ICH list,including39items that were added last month.
After an item is added,its home country is required to take
action to protect it. UNESCO will offer money to those countries too.ICH,as the name suggests,isn’t always something we can touch or see.But what kinds of things can be described as ICH?Here are some examples.
Social practices
Social practices are activities that are shared by a group of people.They can include festivals and sports.But they don’t have to be ancient.They can be modern activities that people still practice these days as well.Hurling(曲棍球)is an example of this Irish people play it in schools and clubs.They even have national hurling championships.
Acting arts
Acting arts might have been one of the first ways for people to express their moods creatively.This is because people don't have to use tools to act.They can only use their bodies.They can sing,dance and wear costumes.Reggae music was created in the1960s in Jamaica.The words of the music are often deep.Reggae artists hold up a mirror to society and make its problems known to the public.
Knowledge and practices about nature
ICH includes not only literature(文学)and arts but also science.Many cultures have developed their own knowledge of the universe and medical practices.Such knowledge and practices have helped people for hundreds of years.In Tibet,people put herbs(草药)in hot water and take baths in it.They use this medicinal bathing"to treat illnesses.Even now,many modern medical colleges in China teach this practice to their students.
Spoken traditions
Spoken traditions include tales,riddles and poems.Over
hundreds of years,they prevent knowledge,social values and memories from dying.The tales of Dede Qorqud are an example a spoken tradition.In these tales,Dede Qorqud is a wise man. He teaches people how to face life and death and solve problems in their lives.

Part1重难点解析
单项填空
16.D
解析：原文提到all rubbish must be properly separated...。

选项中相同一下的就是D选项。

34.A
解析：考察宾语从句，由于从句应该用陈述语序，所以排出B和D，由于后文的回答是不知道去博物馆的路，所以前面应该问路，从句意判断选A。

完形填空
39.B动词词义辨析，文中句意想表达睡眠有利于减肥，所以会降低人们的胃口。

所以选reduce，减少。

40.A考察词组搭配，根据句意：如果你想要减肥，充足的睡眠会对此有一定的影响，产生影响用词组make a difference。

阅读理解
54.D细节题，从文章句意表示这个老鼠生气是因为这个主人公直呼他是一只老鼠，由于它是女皇，所以听到这个它很不开心。

55.D主旨题，文章多次提到woodman has no heart，所以对应了就是woodman is cold，而文中woodman说自己careful，其实他的行为恰恰相反，所以用carele ss，所以选D。

56.C主旨题，根据原文第一段第一句话阐述的是现在很多年轻人喜欢汉服，对应了就是C选项的意思。

填空
65.leaders，one of+名词复数
66.speeches，speech是可数名词，前面没有冠词，因此用复数。

动名词短语做主语，因此整个句子谓语动词用单数is。

68.to deal，have no choice but to do sth.别无选择只能做某事。
