The collection of happiness actions broadly categorized as “honor” help you create thi
23、s life of good feelings.Heres an example to show how honorable actions create happiness.Say a store clerk fails to charge us for an item. If we keep silent, and profit from the clerks mistake, we would drive home with a sense of sneaky excitement. Later we might tell our family or friends about our
24、good fortune. On the other hand, if we tell the clerk about the uncharged item, the clerk would be grateful and thank us for our honesty. We would leave the store with a quiet sense of honor that we might never share with another soul.Then, what is it to do with our sense of happiness?In the first c
25、ase, where we dont tell the clerk, a couple of things would happen. Deep down inside we would know ourselves as a type of thief. In the progress, we would lose some peace of mind and self-respect. We would also demonstrate (证明) that we cannot be trusted, since we advertise our dishonor by telling ou
26、r family and friends. We damage our own reputations (名誉) by telling others. In contrast, bring the error to the clerks attention causes different things to happen. Immediately the clerk knows us to be honorable. Upon leaving the store, we feel honorable and our self-respect is increased. Whenever we
27、 take honorable action we gain the deep internal rewards of goodness and a sense of nobility.There is a beautiful positive cycle that is created by living a life of honorable actions. Honorable thoughts lead to honorable actions. Honorable actions lead us to a happier existence. And its easy to thin
28、k and act honorably again when were happy. While the positive cycle can be difficult to start, once its started, its easy to continue. Keeping on doing good deeds brings us peace of mind, which is important for our happiness.56. According to the passage, the positive action in the example contribute
29、s to our _. A financial rewards Bself-respect C. advertising abilityD. friendly relationship57. The author thinks that keeping silent about the uncharged item is equal to _. A. lyingB. advertisingC. cheatingD. stealing 58. The phrase “bringing the error to the clerks attention” (in para. 5) means _.
30、 A. asking the clerk to be more attentiveB. offering advice to the clerkC telling the truth to the clerkD. reminding the clerk of the charged item59. How will we feel if we let the clerk know her mistake? A. Well have a sense of honor B. Well feel unfortunateC Well feel sorry for the clerkD Well be
31、very excited60. Which of the following can be the best title of this passage? A. How to Live TruthfullyB. Importance of PeacefulnessC Happiness through Honorable actions D. Ways of Gaining Self-respectBSometimes youll hear people say that you cant love others until you love yourself. Sometimes youll
32、 hear people say that you cant expect someone else to love you until you love yourself. Either way, youve got to love yourself first and this can be tricky. Sure we all know that were the apple of our parents eyes, and that our Grandmas think were great talents and our Uncle Roberts think that we wi
33、ll go to the Olympics. But sometimes its a lot harder to think such nice thoughts about ourselves. If you find that believing in yourself is a challenge. It is time you build a positive self-image and learn to love yourself.Self-image is your own minds picture of yourself. This image includes the wa
34、y you look, the way you act, the way you talk and the way you think. Interestingly, our self-images are often quite different from the images others hold about us. Unfortunately, most of these images are more negative than they should be. Thus changing the way you think about yourself is the key to
35、changing your self-image and your whole world.The best way to defeat a passive self-image is to step back and decide to stress your successes. That is, make a list if you need to, but write down all of the great things you do every day. Dont allow doubts to occur in it.It very well might be that you
36、 are experiencing a negative self-image because you cant move past one flaw or weakness that you see about yourself. Well, roll up your sleeves and make a change of it as your primary task. If you think youre silly because you arent good at math, find a tutor. If you think youre weak because you can
37、t run a mile, get to the track and practice. If you think youre dull because you dont wear the latest trends, buy a few new clothes. But remember, just because you think it doesnt mean its true.The best way to get rid of a negative self-image is to realize that your image is far from objective, and
38、to actively convince yourself of your positive qualities. Changing the way you think and working on those you need to improve will go a long way towards promoting a positive self-image. When you can pat（拍）yourself on the back, youll know youre well on your way. Good luck!.61 You need to build a posi
39、tive self-image when you _.A. are unconfident about yourself B. feel it hard to change yourselfC. dare to challenge yourself D. have a high opinion of yourself62.According to the passage, our self-image_.A. are often changeable B. have positive effectsC. are probably unture D. have different functio

People in general. CIn the US and Britain, the slogan around colleges was “Save water. Shower with a friend.” Now, Wuh
42、an University has come up with another system for the campus bathhouse. It charges students for the amount of time in a shower. Before entering the bathhouse, students pay for the amount of time they want in the shower with cash or their student ID card. The clock starts ticking the minute the tape
43、is turned on. It pauses when a button is pressed for soap. An integrated circuit (IC) card reader at each tap shows the time. No money, no water. The benefits of the new system can be seen with the old system, which charged 1 Yuan for each person regardless of time in the shower. The university used
44、 about 320 tons of water daily under the old system, but only 160 tons now.Many students use the new system but opinions on it are divided. Some students say it is bad because bathing had become a sort of race. Many people using it for the first time are not sure how long they need to shower. Some m
45、ight be embarrassed if their time is up and theyre still covered in soap. They have to ask the bathhouse worker to help them buy extra time.“Its a flaw in the system that you can not buy extra time on the ID card,” said Ren, a freshman in Wuhan University. The university is also considering some stu
46、dents suggestions that they be allowed to pay after theyve finished the shower. Not surprisingly, some are complaining about losing the hour shower. But many students say the move helps them develop a water-saving sense.Without the time limits, most students tended to shower for 30 to an hour in the
47、 bathhouse. Some even used the hot water to wash their clothes. “In my experience, 1020 minutes is enough,” said Dai Zhihua, a third-year student who usually takes 8 minutes.A similar system has been installed in other universities. Shanghai Normal University introduced it at its Fengxiang Campus in
48、 September. The bathing fee there is 0.2 Yuan per minute. One male student responded by setting a record with a two-minute shower.66. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?A. Students pay for the amount of time they want in the shower.B. The clock times all through while the s
49、tudent is bathing except when the bather paused for soap.C. If money runs out, there will be no water.D. Having finished bathing, the student has to pay for it.67. The underline word “flaw” (P aragraph 3) most probably means _.A. advantageB. pity C. fault D. perfection68. Since the new system has pe
50、rformed, _ of water can be saved.A. a quarterB. one halfC. one third D. two thirds69. It can be inferred from the passage that _.A. The new operation can raise students environmental awareness.B. the new operation can solve the water crisis.C. a similar operation has been set in other universities.D
51、. The university has saved a lot of water by using the new system.70. In which column can you find this passage? A. People.B. Society. C. Lifestyle. D. Campus LifeDIt may be one of Britains most successful exports Miss World（世界小姐）. This 53-year-old event took place in China last week and attracted o
52、ver 120 women worldwide with knockout looks in a mad struggle for the crown.Traditional values have long kept the Chinese, especially women, from displaying beauty. But Chinese people have now changed their attitude toward beauty contest, although some men will still be shouting that the winner is n
53、o more beautiful than his wife or his former girl friend or even his mother in a sour tone. But such men are not shouting for the right reason. The question to be: Why isnt there a Mr. World Beauty Contest?And a further question to be asked is: Does taking part in a beauty contest show a womans cour
54、age, wisdom and liberation or rather the opposite a forced choice and a revolting act made under conditions of long-term discrimination?Organizers of such beauty contests claim that the contestants are judged on qualities other than just their physical appearance. But still no answer is given to why
55、 there isnt a Mr. Beauty or a Mr. World Contest? Or at least, why isnt that kind of contest popular? Why is it that only womens “qualities” need to be recognized but not mens?Think about who is always standing beside a fancy car on show? Is it a boy or a girl? And this is how “qualities” are judged:
56、 if the girl looks good, there is little reason why the car beside her is not of high quality.The beauty contests go on year after year, with winners enjoying fame which quickly disappears. While such events go on and on, what never changes is the routine practice that in every fancy car show, a gir
57、l stands beside a fancy car. What never changes is the need to hold a womens conference every year to appeal for the promotion of respect for and improvement of women. What never changes is the fate of women as a class. So lets put more time and resources into trying to change all this rather than h
