Happiness is important for everyone. Most people want to be happy, but few know how to find happiness. Money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness. Happiness depends on ourselves. In other words, we make our own happiness. Here are a few ways 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 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 favorite music, or spending time with close friends. People who have several close friends tend(有……打算) to live happier and healthier lives.
The second secret to leading a happy life is to be active. Many people experience this, dancing or playing a sport. You can forget about your problems, and only think about the activity.
Finally, many people find happiness in helping others. According to studies, people feel good when they volunteer their time to do many meaningful things for other people. If you want to feel happier, do something nice for someone.

阅读下面语篇,从每题所给的ABC三个选项中选出最佳选项。

There are two paths () in life: Should and Must. We arrive at these crossroads over and over again. And each time, we get to choose.

Should is how others want us to show up in the world—what we should or shouldn’t do. When we choose Should, the risk is small.

Must is who we are, what we believe, and what we do when we are alone with our truest self. Must is why Van Gogh painted his whole life without ever receiving public recognition (认可). Must is why Reyna Marder Gentin started to write for the first time after 23 years of being a lawyer.

Choosing Must sounds fantastic, right? But Must is scary, hard, and a lot like jumping off a high building where you can’t see anything down below. How can we actually choose Must?

Ask yourself, “What is my Must?” If you don’t know the answer, write down your biggest, most impossible dreams! Don’t worry! It’s just the first step.

Now, think about what’s actually in your way. Is it your parents? Maybe they’re just worried that you haven’t thought it through. Try to make a practical(切实可行的) plan for what you want to do. Your parents may find it a good one. Is it money? Well, the best way to make money is to do what you love because it’s very likely that you will pay great attention to it. Choosing Must doesn’t mean we need to give up everything we already have. It’s about changing one small thing at a time.

If you believe that you have something special inside of you, it’s about time you gave Must a try—today.

1What happens if we choose the path of “Should”?

A.

We don’t need to take great risks.

B.

We have to give up what we have.

C.

We’ll have a clear picture of ourselves.

2The writer develops his idea in Paragraph 3 by ________.

A.

listing numbers

B.

asking questions

C.

giving examples

3What should we do if we choose the path of “Must”?

A.

Try to make a practical plan.

B.

Turn to other people for help.

C.

Change many things at a time.

4The writer wrote this passage to ________.

A.

take others’ advice

B.

be our truest self

C.

communicate with parents

Paper cutting or tearing is a cultural tradition in China. For centuries, it has been passed down from one generation(一代人) to the next, especially from mothers to daughters. This beautiful art created by skillful artists is used to decorate(装饰) doors, ceilings, and beds in people’s homes, or at celebrations such as birthdays and weddings. At Chinese New Year, window flowers are glued to windows, creating beautiful patterns of light and shadow.

The two main techniques(技艺) used are cutting the paper using a knife or scissors, or tearing it by hand. If the paper is cut, the edges(边缘) are very smooth. Paper cutting can produce very fine and delicate work. This type of work is typical of southern China. If the paper is torn by hand, the edges are more simple and natural. Tearing is used more in northeast China. In addition, different parts of China have their own motifs or pictures. These motifs can express many stories, ideas and emotions.

It can be hard to hold on to traditions like these because young people don’t know much about traditional art. Often they prefer spending their time on newer pastimes. The experts are getting older. If young people don’t learn the traditions, they won’t be able to pass them down to their own children. But recently there is a change. There are more exhibitions of traditional art. Artists are going into schools to teach children how to do paper cutting. Children enjoy working together with artists and talking to them about the meaning of their art. In this way, they are becoming proud of their culture and traditions.

1The underlined word “motifs” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ________ .

A.

habits

B.

reasons

C.

subjects

2What is the writer’s opinion on paper cutting or tearing?

A.

It is easy to hold on to this form of art.

B.

It will continue in China for future generations.

C.

It is so expensive that only the rich can afford to learn it.

3From the passage we know that ________ .

A.

young people know traditional art very well

B.

the edges are very smooth when the paper is cut

C.

girls were not allowed to learn paper cutting in the past

4What could be the best title for the passage?

A.

Chinese Paper Art

B.

Great Changes in China

C.

Famous Chinese Artists
