26、ssion and loneliness. One day she felt so lonely that she wanted to reach out to someone. So she put pen to paper and started writing lettersletters to complete strangers.But these werent sad letters about how she w as feeling. They were happy letters, all about the other person, not her. She would
27、write messages for people to have a “bright day” and tell strangers how outstanding they were, even if they thought no one else had noticed. Brencher began dropping the notes all over New York, in cafes, in library books, in parks and on the subway. It made her feel better, knowing that she might be
28、 making somebodys day through just a few short, sweet words. It gave her something to focus on. And so, the website The World Needs More Love Letters was born.The World Needs More Love Letters is all about writing lettersnot emails, but proper, handwritten letters. Not traditional love letters, writ
29、ten to a real beloved, but surprise letters for strangers. They dont necessarily say “I love you”, but they are full of kindnesstelling people they are remarkable and special and all-around amazing. Brenchers initiative (初衷) has now exploded. She has personally written hundreds of letters. Last year
30、, she did a TED talk, in which she talks about a woman whose husband, a soldier, comes back home from Afghanistan and they struggle to reconnect: “So she leaves love letters all over the house as a way to say: Come back to me. Find me when you can.” And then comes another story of a man threatening
31、to kill himself on his Facebook page, only to now be in the land of the living, with many love letters under his pillow.

36、ake the doctors out of work D. love letters can keep you sway from loneliness C The life-long benefits of teaching children good money habits make it well worth the effort. Children who are not taught these lessons pay the consequences for a life time. Some parents dont teach children about money be
37、cause they think they shouldnt talk about money with children, dont have the time, or think they dont have enough money. Parents should take the time to teach children about money regardless of their income and should start when children are young. Most people have strong feelings and opinions about
38、 money, based on childhood experiences and the values and beliefs of their families. Most often, these experiences, values, and beliefs are different for each parent. It is important for the healthy development of children that parents talk about these feelings and opinions and establish a consisten
39、t(始终如一的)approach to teaching children about money. Here are some guidelines parents can keep in mind as they begin the financial socialization of their children: Advise rather than order how the childs money should be used. Allow children to learn by mistakes and by successes. Be consistent while ta
40、king childrens differences into account. Include all family members in money management discussions, decision making, and activities suitable for their age. Explan to children what they can and cannot do and the consequences of going above the limits. As children get older increasingly include them
41、in discussions of limits and consequences. Expect all family members to perform unpaid, routine household work based on their abilities. Express your desire to have things you cant afford.

45、To make children do housework for the family and pay them. C. To help children learn to say “no” to their own unrealistic desires. D. To encourage children to set limits for themselves.D Social change is more likely to occur in societies where there is a mixture of different kinds of people than in
46、societies where people are similar in many ways. The simple reason for this is that there are more different ways of looking at things present in the first kind of society. There are more ideas, more disagreements in interest, and more groups and organizations with different beliefs. In addition, th
47、ere is usually a greater worldly interest and greater tolerance(容忍) in mixed societies. All these factors tend to promote social change by opening more areas of life to decision. In a society where people are quite similar in many ways, there are fewer occasions for people to see the need or the opp
48、ortunity for change because everything seems to be the same. And although conditions may not be satisfactory, they are at least socially accepted customs. Within a society, social change is also likely to occur more frequently and more readily in the material aspects of the culture than in the non-m
49、aterial, for example, in technology rather than in values; in what has been learned later in life rather than what was learned early; in the less basic and less emotional aspects of society than in their opposites; in the simple elements rather than in the complex ones; in form rather than in substa
50、nce(物质); and in elements that are acceptable to the culture rather than in strange elements. Furthermore, social change is easier if it is gradual. For example, it comes more readily in human relations on a continuous scale rather than on a sharp one. This is one reason why change has not come more
51、quickly to Black Americans as compared to other American minorities, because of the sharp difference in appearance between them and white counterparts.43. Which of the following factors tends to promote social change? A. Different points of view B. Less emotional people C. Advanced technology D. Sim
52、ilar interests 44. Why is social change less likely to occur where people are quite similar in many ways?A. Because the social tolerance in such a society is greater. B. Because the social interests are fairly shared.C. Because the conditions are generally satisfactory.D. Because the present situati
53、on is commonly accepted.45. What does the underlined word “one” refer to in the passage?A. Change B. Relation C. Scale D. Reason 46. The passage mainly talks about social change in terms of . A. why and how B. where and what C. what and why D. how and whenEPerhaps you think you could easily add to y
54、our happiness with more moneyStrange as it may seem, if youre unsatisfied, the issue is not a lack of means to meet your desires but a lack of desiresnot that you cannot satisfy your tastes but that you dont have enough tastes.Real riches consist of well-developed and hearty capacities (能力) to enjoy
55、 life. Most people are already swamped(淹没) with things. They eat, wear, go and talk too much. They live in too big a house with too many rooms, yet their house of life is a hut.Your house of life ought to be a mansion (豪宅) , a royal palace. Every new taste, every additional interest, every fresh ent
56、husiasm adds a room. Here are several rooms your house of life should have.Art should be a desire for you to develop simply because the world is full of beautiful things. If you only understood how to enjoy them and feed your spirit on them, they would make you as happy as to find plenty of ham and
57、eggs when youre hungry.Literature, classic literature, is a beautiful, richly furnished room where you might find many an hour of rest and refreshment. To gain that love would go toward making you a rich person, for a rich person is not someone who has a library but who likes a library.Music like Mo
58、zarts and Bachs shouldnt be absent. Real riches are of the spirit. And when youve brought that spirit up to where classical music feeds it and makes you a little drunk, you have increased your thrills and bettered them. And life is a matter of thrills.Sports, without which you remain poor, mean a lo
59、t in life. No matter who you are, you would be more human, and your house of life would be better supported against the had days, if you could, and did, play a bit.Whatever rooms you might add to your house of life, the secret of enjoying life is to keep adding.47. The author intends to tell us that
60、_.Atrue happiness lies in achieving wealth by fair means Bbig houses are peoples most valued possessions Cbig houses can in a sense bring richness of life Dtrue happiness comes from spiritual riches 48. The underlined sentence in the second paragraph probably implies that_.Ahowever materially rich,
61、they never seem to be satisfied Bhowever materially rich, they remain spiritually poor Cthough their house is big, they prefer a simple life Dthough their house is big, it seems to be a cage 49. It can be learned from the passage that _.Amore money brings more happiness Bart is needed to make your h
62、ouse beautiful Cliterature can enrich your spiritual life Dsports contribute mainly to your physical fitness 50.
