Most people want to be happy, but few know how to find happiness. Money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness. Aristotle, a Greek thinker, said, "Happiness depends on ourselves." In other words, we make our own happiness. Here are a few suggestions to help you be happier.
The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Too often, we spend so much time thinking about the future—for example, getting into a college or getting a good job—that we fail to enjoy the present. You should enjoy life's simple pleasures, such as reading a good book, listening to your favourite music, or spending time with close friends. People who have several close friends often live happier and healthier lives.
Another secret to living a happy life is to be active, and have hobbies where you forget your problems and time. Many people experience this dancing, or playing a sport, such as swimming. You can forget about your problems, and only think about the activity.
Finally, many people find happiness in helping others. Studies show that people feel good when they spend their time helping others. If you want to feel happier, do good things for someone. You can help a friend with his or her studies, go shopping to buy food for an elderly person, or simply help out around the house by washing the dishes.
（1）The best title of the passage is ________.
A.Money Makes You Happy
B.The Secrets of Happiness
C.Ideas for Helping Other People to Be Happy
D.Good Friends Makes You Happy
（2）The passage gives us ________ pieces of advice on happiness.
A.one
B.two
C.three
D.four
（3）The writer thinks that ________.
A.everyone knows how to live a happier life
B.it's wrong to spend time on work
C.hobbies take up too much time
D.doing good things for someone can make you happier
（4）Which of the following is not mentioned（提及）in the passage?
A.Reading a good book.
B.Travelling to a foreign country.
C.Playing a sport.
D.Spending time with close friends.

可知，曹瑞14岁。

故选B。

（2）C 词义猜测题。

根据第二段She is interested in Geography, History and P.E., but she hates talking about Maths.中的but可知，前后句子为转折关系。

前一句句意为：她对地理，历史和体育感兴趣，说明后一句句意为：但是讨厌谈论数学。

因此“hates”是“讨厌，不喜欢”的意思。

故选C。

（3）C 细节理解题。

根据第三段中He lives in Seoul.他住在首尔。

可知Kim Hyun Joong是一个韩国人。

以及He would like a Chinese pen friend to discuss the differences between the two countries.可知Kim Hyun Joong想要一个中国笔友来讨论韩国和中国这两个国家之间的差异。

【解析】
此题暂无解析
【解答】
（1）stone; middle 根据全文earthquake“地震”及空后的fell from a nearby mountain及下文的many
people came to the road and saw the stone.可知，此处应是指因为地震，山上的石头滚落下来，故第一空填stone；根据下文It wasn't even near the road.它甚至不在路边。

可知，此处应是指石头滚到了路中间。

故第二空填middle。

in the middle of“在……的中间”。

（2）他们尽力用绳索拉，但不起作用。

try to do sth“试着做某事”为固定短语。

pull“拉”；
with“用”；but“但是”；nothing“没有什么”；worked（work的过去式）“起作用”。

故翻译为：他们尽力用绳索拉，但不起作用。

（3）More people ran out to see what had happened. 分析题干可知，本句可以翻译为含有宾语从句的复合句。

more people“更多的人”作主句主语，位于句首首字母大写；run out“跑出去”，固定短语，作主句谓语，此处讲述过去的事，时态为一般过去时，谓语动词用过去式，即ran out，其后接动词不定式作目的状语；see“看”，其后接what“什么”引导的宾语从句。

happen“发生”，此处happen这一动作发生在ran out这一动作之前，且已经完成，时态应用过去完成时。

故翻译为：More people ran out to see what had happened.
（4）There's nothing we can do about it. 题干中句子意为“我们对此无能为力。

”结合第三段中人们说的话there's nothing we can do about it.我们对此无能为力。

可知，第三段中句子即为其同义句。

此处为以单独的句子，句首首字母大写。

故填There's nothing we can do about it.
（5）This clever boy had a good idea. 通读全文可知，一场地震导致山上大石挡在路中间，人们想尽办法却最终没能将它移走。

结合第四段At this time a boy about 12 years old said, "I think I can help you to move the stone away."可知，一个男孩想出了一个好主意，使得事件峰回路转。

最后男孩成功将石头移走了。

由此可知，本文主要是突出这个聪明的男孩想出的好主意。

由此可知，本文的主题句应是最后一句This clever boy had a good idea.

（2）A 词义猜测题。

根据第二段划线句后句For example, three or four persons can ride together in one car instead of driving three or four cars to work.比如，三四个人可以一起坐一辆车，而不是开三四辆车上班。

【小题1】
考查被动语态。

句意：它最初是为了保护唐代的城市而建造的，现在已经完全修复了。

分析句子可知，空格处为谓语，动词 build和主语之间是被动关系，应用被动语态（be done），根据句意和时间状语the Tang dynasty可知，用一般过去时，谓语动词用过去式，主语it为第三人称单数，主谓一致，故填was built.
【小题2】
考查介词。

句意：它最初是为了保护唐代的城市而建造的，现在已经完全修复了。

根据句意可知，表示“在某个朝代”应用介词 in. 故填in.
【小题3】
考查动词不定式。

句意：在观察了城墙上所有的防御设备后，我们决定是时候采取行动了，还有什么比骑在历史上更好的呢。

分析句子可知，此处为句型“it +be+adj+to do sth. ", it为形式主语，动词walk的不定式短语作真正主语。

故填to walk.
【小题4】
考查动名词。

句意：在花了一些时间查看了城墙上所有的防御设备之后，我们决定是时候采取一些行动了，还有什么比骑在历史上更好的呢。

分析句子可知，此处After为介词，故spend应用其动名词形式作介词宾语。

故填spending.
【小题5】
考查形容词比较级。

句意：在花了一些时间查看了城墙上所有的防御设备之后，我们决定是时候采取一些行动了，还有什么比骑在历史上更好的呢。

故填better.
【小题6】
考查时态。

句意：我们从南门的租赁处租了自行车。

分析句子可知，此处为谓语动词，根据上下文可知，此处描述过去发生的事情，用一般过去时，谓语动词用过去式。

故填hired.
【小题7】
考查连词。

句意：我的自行车又旧又摇摇晃晃，但还可以骑。

后文did the job和前文My bike was old and shaky之间存在转折关系，故用表示转折的连词but连接。

故填but.
【小题8】
考查冠词。

句意：我们绕着西安城墙走了大约3个小时。

结合句意表示“一直；完全地“可知短语为all the way，故用定冠词the限定名词way. 故填the.
【小题9】
考查名词复数。

句意：据说你可以在两个小时内完成，但我们在不同的大门和了望台停下来拍照，或者只是看当地人进行他们的日常生活。

根据句意以及前文形容词different可知，此处可数名词watchtower是复数概念，应用其复数形式。

故填watchtowers.
