A shop keeper sent his son to learn about the secret of happiness from the wisest

to a beautiful castle, high on a mountain．It was there that the wise man lived．On entering the main room of the castle, the boy saw lots of busy people．The
wise man was talking with everyone else, and the boy had to wait for two hours before
it was his turn to be given the man's attention．
The wise man listened carefully to the boy' explanation of why he had come, but
told him he did't have time to explain the secret of happiness．He suggested that
the boy look around the palace and return in two hours．
"Meanwhile I want you to do something," said the roan, handing the boy a teaspoon
that held two drops of oil．As you wander around, carry the spoon with you without
the oil to spill（溢出）．
The boy began walking around the palace, keeping his eyes fixed on the spoon．After two hours, he returned.
"Well, asked the wise man," did you see the pictures hanging in my dining hall?
Did you see the garden that took the gardeners ten years to create?
The boy felt embarrassed, and admitted he had observed nothing．His only concern
had been not to spill the oil．
"Then go back and observe the marvels of my world," said the wise man．You cannot trust a man if you don't know his house．
The boy picked up the spoon -and returned to his exploration of the palace, this time observing all of the works of art on the ceilings and the walls．He saw the garden, the mountains all around him and the beauty of the flowers．Upon returning to the wise man, he described in detail everything he had seen．

Ahhhh, the great outdoors—and where better to enjoy nature at its best than at Glacier National Park．You don't have to wait for summer months to travel to this wonderful, beautiful place since there are activities and sports available each an every month of the year．And don't forget your camera because the scenery is breathtaking in any season!
Glacier Park covers 1．2 million acres of mountain ranges, deep valleys, and lakes formed by sixty glaciers that remain in the area．It also contains alpine meadows（高山草甸）, forests, waterfalls, and two hundred lakes．The great Northern Railroad reached Glacier National Park in 1892 and brought miners, settlers, and tourists．In 1895 the federal government purchased the park
from the Blacktect Indians in order to freely mine for minerals．When none were found, the government then turned Glacier into one of our most cherished national parks．Glacier National joins Waterton Lakes National Park in Alberta Canada and is the third largest national park in the lower forty-eight states．The park is home to 936 miles of rivers and streams, and 700 miles of hiking trails．There are very few road-miles in order to maintain the primitive（原始的） beauty of this very special area．The only exception is a 52 mile stretch called, “Going-to-the-Sun” road．It cuts through the very center of the park, crosses the Continental Divide at Logan Pass, and traverses the towering Garden Wall．A ‘Red Jammer' bus happily takes many visitors along this highway so they may enjoy the view in summer and early autumn months．

The Association of Teachers and Lecturers said children were under "huge pressure" to buy brands．The teachers' survey claims children are strongly aware of brands, but pay little attention to the green or ethical （道德） values of products．Brands are more influential to children than their own friends, the study says．The study from the ATL teachers' union warns that children are under extreme commercial pressure to be seen buying and wearing fashionable brands．The union's general secretary, Mary Bousted．says that "children are suffering the results" from advertising that targets youngsters．
"It is unbelievably sad to hear how many youngsters are bullied or isolated （孤立） for not having the same clothes or accessories as their classmates," said Dr．Bousted．
"A lot of advertising companies obviously target children without any consideration for the parents of those children," said Ann Seddon from Manor Field Infant School in Hampshire．
"They need to be up-to-date, otherwise they get left out and have low self-esteem," said Ann Seddon．"It is often the children wh6 you would expect to
have least, such as a family on benefits （救济金）, who have all the branded stuff and laugh at others．" Teachers felt that advertising was on purpose targeting young people and that brands were of paramount（首要） importance．
Brands were identified by teachers as the biggest single influence on what children wanted to Buy—followed, by the choices made by friends．Green issues and ethical values were considered unlikely to have much influence．
"Schools should be places where all children feel equal, but it is nearly impossible for schools to protect their pupils from the harsher （更残酷的） aspects of these commercial influences," said Dr．Bousted．"We are worried these pressures will further intensify （增强） as schools look for more help from commercial sponsors to provide IT, sports and science equipment, teaching materials and food．" 57．According to Para．1, children buy things mainly depending on _____．A．what brands they are
B．what their friends buy
C．whether they are accepted by society
D．whether they are- environmentally friendly
58．If a child doesn't buy fashionable brands, he will _____．
A．be more confident
B．pay more attention to study
C．not make friends with others
D．be laughed at by his classmates
59．Who should be responsible for children buying fashionable brands?
A．Their friends．B．Advertisers．
C．Teachers． D．Parents．
60．From what Dr．Bousted said, we can infer that _____．
A．all children are enjoying equality at school
B．schools are taking measures to protect the children
C．children in poor families are more likely to buy brands
D．schools themselves are being greatly influenced by commercialization
第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）
根据短文内容，从下框的A—F选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项，选项中有一项为多余选项。

A．Growth of adult education
B．Institutions of adult education
C．Functions of adult education
D．Early days of adult education
E．Ways of receiving adult education
F．Necessity for developing adult education
61
Voluntary learning in organized courses by mature men and women is called adult education．Such education is offered to make people able to enlarge and interpret their experience as adults．Adults may want to study something which they missed in earlier schooling, get new skills or job training , find out about new technological developments, seek better self-understanding, or develop new talents
and skills．
62．
This kind of education may be in the form of self-study with proper guidance
through the use of libraries, correspondence courses, or broadcasting．It may also
be acquired collectively in schools and colleges study groups, workshops, clubs,
and professional associations．
63．
Modern adult education for large numbers of people started in the 18th and 19th
centuries with the rise of the Industrial Revolution．Great economic and social
changes were taking place; people were moving from rural areas to cities; new types
of work were being created in an expanding factory system．These and other factors
produced a need for further education and re-education of adults．
64．
The earliest programs of organized adult education arose in Great Britain in
the 1790s, with the founding of an adult school in Nottingham and a mechanics'
institute in Glasgow．The earliest adult education institution in the United States
was founded by Benjamin Franklin and some friends in Philadelphia in 1727．
65．
People recognize that continued learning is necessary for most forms of employment today．For example, parts of the adult population in many countries find
it necessary to take part in retraining programs at work or even to learn completely
new jobs．Adult education programs are springing up constantly to meet these and
other needs．
