12、say. But touching things can help you to see them better.Your eyes can tell you that glass ball is round. But by holding it in your hands, you can feel how smooth and cool the ball is. You can feel how heavy the glass is.When you feel all these about the ball, you really see it.With your skin , you

13、can feel better. For example, your fingers can tell the difference between two coins in your pocket. You can feel a little drop of water on the back of your hand, too.You can even feel sounds against your skin. Have you ever wanted to know why some people like very loud music? They must like to feel

14、 the sounds of music.All children soon learn what “Dont touch!” means. They hear it often. Yet most of us keep on touchings as we grow up. In shops, we touch things we might buy, such as food, clothes and so on. To see something well, we have to touch it.The bottoms of our feet can feet things too.

15、You know this when you walk on warm sand, cool grass or a bad floor. All feel different under your feet.There are ways of learning to see well by feeling.One way is to close your eyes and try to feel everything that is touching your skin. Feel the shoes on your feet, the clothes on your body, the ai

16、r on your skin. At first, it is not easy to feel these things. Yor are too used to them!Most museums are just for looking. But today some museums have some things to touch. Their signs say, “Do touch! There you can feel everything on show. If you want to see better, reach out and touch. Then youll r

17、eally see!”.41By touching things_.Ayou will have a strange feeling Byou will learn how to reach outCyou can tell the difference between them Dyou can tell what colors they are42Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?ATouching by FeelingBTo See or to FeelCTo See BetterFeelDWays o

20、 good to be alone the greater part of the time. To be in company, even with the best, is soon boring, and I never found a companion so companionable as solitude (独处,孤独) . We are for the most part more lonely when we go abroad than we stay in our rooms, for solitude is not measured by the space that

21、comes between a man and his fellows. The farmer, who can work alone all day without feeling lonesome, but must recreate(消遣) with others at night, wonders how the students can sit alone at night; he does not realize the student, though in the house, is actually at work in his field and cutting his wo

22、od as the farmer was in his. Society is commonly too cheap:we meet at very short intervals(间隔), not having had time to acquire any new value for each other;we meet at meals three times a day and try to give each other a new taste of that musty old cheese that we are; we live thick and are in each ot

23、hers way, and I think that we thus lose some respect for one another. We have now agreed on a certain set of rules, called manners and politeness, to make this frequent meeting tolerable ; certainly less frequency would suffice(足够) for all important and hearty communications between men. It would be

24、 better if there were but one inhabitant to a square mile, as where I live, for as the value of a man is not in his skin, we need not touch him.46.It can be inferred from the passage that solitude is_.A.boring B. lonely C.sound D.understandable47.According to the author, a person can be more lonely

25、among men than by himself at home because _.A. loneliness is a state of mindB. solitude is measured in milesC.loneliness is the same as being aloneD. being alone is a private habit48.

26、eeds recreation after workingC. work satisfies a mans need for solitudeD. men are not lonely when they are working49. By “living thick” the author thinks we will_.A. acquire respect for societyB. lose respect for one another C. find new values in ourselvesD. increase the value of our friendships50.

27、According to the passage, the value of a man can be_.A. found in external appearance B.discovered through skin contactsC.felt through frequent meetings D. discovered without physical contact(C) The way people hold to the belief that a fun-filled, pain free life equals happiness actually reduces thei

28、r chances of ever attaining real happiness. If fun and pleasure are equal to happiness then pain must be equal to unhappiness. But in fact, the opposite is true: more often things that lead to happiness involve some pain. As a result, many people avoid the very attempts that are the source of true h

29、appiness. They fear the pain inevitably brought by such things as marriage, raising children, professional achievement, religious commitment(承担的义务)，self-improvement. Ask a bachelor(单身汉)why he resists marriage even though he finds dating to be less and less satisfying. If he is honest he will tell yo

30、u that he is afraid of making a commitment. For commitment is in fact quite painful. The single life is filled with fun, adventure, excitement. Marriage has such moments, but they are not its most distinguishing features. Couples with infant children are lucky to get a whole nights sleep or a three-

31、day vacation. I dont know any parent who would choose the word “fun” to describe raising children. But couples who decide not to have children never know the joys of watching a child grow up or of playing with a grandchild. Understanding and accepting that true happiness has nothing to do with fun i

32、s one of the most liberating realizations. It liberates time: now we can devote more hours to activities that can genuinely increase our happiness. It liberates money: buying that new car or those fancy clothes that will do nothing to increase our happiness now seems pointless. And it liberates us f

33、rom envy: we now understand that all those who are always having so much fun actully may not be happy at all.51. According to the author, a bachelor resists marriage chiefly because_.A. he is reluctant to take on family responsibilitiesB. he believes that life will be more cheerful if he remains sin

36、ish happiness from fun55. What is the author trying to tell us?A. Happiness often goes hand in hand with pain.B. One must know how to attain happiness.C. It is important to make commitments.D.
