14、出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。AI had worried myself sick over Simons mother coming to see me. I was a new teacher, and I gave an honest account of the students work. In Simons case，the grades were awfully low. He couldnt read his own handwriting. But he was a bright student. He discussed adult subjects with nea

15、rly adult comprehension. His work in no way reflected his abilities.So when Simons mother entered the room, my palms (手掌心) were sweating. I was completely unprepared for her kisses on both my cheeks. “I came to thank you,” she said, surprising me beyond speech. Because of me, Simon had become a diff

16、erent person. He talked of how he loved me, he had begun to make friends, and for the first time in his twelve years, he had recently spent an afternoon at a friends house. She wanted to tell me how grateful she was for the self-respect I had developed in her son. She kissed me again and left.I sat,

17、 stunned, for about half an hour，wondering what had just happened. How did I make such a lifechanging difference to that boy without even knowing it？What I finally came to remember was one day, several months before，when some students were giving reports in the front of the class, Jeanne spoke quiet

18、ly，and to encourage her to raise her voice, I had said, “Speak up. Simons the expert on this. He is the only one you have to convince, and he cant hear you in the back of the room.” That was it. From that day on, Simon had sat up straighter, paid more attention, smiled more，and became happy. And it

19、was all because he happened to be the last kid in the last row. The boy who most needed praise was the one who took the last seat that day.It taught me the most valuable lesson over the years of my teaching career, and Im thankful that it came early and positively. A small kindness can indeed make a

20、 difference.26. We can infer that when Simons mother entered the room, the writer felt _.A. satisfied B. nervous C. happy D. surprised27. Why did Simons mother come to visit her sons teacher?A. Because she worried about her sons poor work.B. Because she wanted to show her gratitude to the teacher.C.

23、re a valuable lesson with readers. BRecently I have discovered its often easier for me to do something every day than to do it just some days. I post to my blog six days a week. I take notes every day. I write in my one-sentence journal every day. Many people have told me that they find it easier to

24、 exercise when they exercise every day. If I try to do something just four days a week, I spend a lot of time arguing with myself: Is today the day, or is it tomorrow, or the next day? Does the week start on Sunday or Monday?If you do something every day, you tend to fall into a routine. Routine has

25、 a bad reputation for lacking excitement. Its true that novelty and challenge bring happiness and that people who break their routines, try new things, and go to new places are happier, but I think that some routine activities also bring happiness. The pleasure of doing the same thing, in the same w

26、ay, every day, shouldnt be overlooked. By repeating, you can find happiness in activities like doing dishes or sweeping the floor as well as in your beloved morning coffee-and-news routines.Two geniuses whom I know of also wrote about the power of doing something every day. Andy Warhol wrote, “Eithe

27、r once only, or every day. If you do something once its exciting, and if you do it every day its exciting. But if you do it, say, twice or just almost every day, its not good any more. ” Gertrude Stein made a similar point, “Anything one does every day is important and anywhere one lives is interest

28、ing and beautiful.”So if theres something that you wish you did more regularly, try doing it every day; if you do something every day, take great pleasure in it.31. In the first paragraph, what does the author try to tell us?A. Its easier to do the same thing every day.B. Its important to do the sam

Doing something every day, not only once. D. Doing something every day or only once.34. The writer develops the passage mainly in t

31、he following ways EXCEPT _.A. giving examples B. offering instructionsC. giving explanations D. using quotations (引用)35. Which can be the best title of the passage?A. A Way To Form A Habit B. Do Anything Every DayC. Repeat Regularly D. Power Of Everyday RepetitionCPlaying the piano may seem like not

32、hing special to you, but what about playing it on fruits instead of piano keys? Lin Hai, a 24-year-old graduate, did exactly that, as he made an electronic board by himself. Wearing thick glasses and a simple T-shirt, Lin looks no different to other engineering students. But under his plain appearan

33、ce lies a true geek（极客）heart.When Lin was little, he loved disassembling things to look at how they work. Even though he often failed at putting them back together, his curiosity was never satisfied and he laid hands on everything, except computers. “My parents told me not to disassemble computers b

34、ecause theyre expensive, so I researched the software instead,” says Lin. When he went to university, Lin chose a subject that was related to engineering and programming. Lin is a typical geek who often spends days in the laboratory inventing new things. His most successful invention is an electroni

35、c board he calls “Crazyer”, the one that turns bananas into piano keys. Lins Crazyer electronic board was inspired by a similar device built by two PhD students at MIT. Their device is called Makey Makey, which turns everyday objects into touchpads.Having seen a video, Lin was so impressed by the de

36、vice that he searched for its website in the hope of buying one. But he found its not for sale. For most people, the story would have ended there. But for Lin, it was about to begin: “Why not make my own Makey Makey?” he thought. So he studied the video and website, trying to figure out how it worke

37、d. “I found that the mechanism Makey Makey is based on what was similar to that of the electronic lock I built before.” says Lin. From watching the video to building an electronic board and writing a program for it, Lin spent an entire month bringing Crazyer to life. His hard work paid off. With the

38、 money he earns from selling Crazyer, Lin can give back to society. Lin has helped many disabled people by building customized Crazyer boards for them. Another benefit is that the money he earns can support Lin in inventing new things. Lins geek spirit is always striving toward new goals.36. Which s

39、tatement is TRUE according to the passage?A. Lin has attractive appearance and wise head.B. Lin made his invention on his own.C. Lin is a little different from other engineering students.D. Lins good at playing the piano.37. Which of the following has the closest meaning to the underlined word “disa

40、ssemble”?A. look through B. search intoC. take apart D. focus on38. From the passage, we can know that_.A. “Crazyer” is the most successful invention in Lins school.B. Lin got inspiration for inventing “Crazyer” from others.C. “Crazyer” works in the same way as Makey Makey.D. Lin copied the idea of

41、two PhD students at MIT.39. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Lins invention did good to himself as well as others.B. Lin made a lot of money from selling his invention.C. Lin will stop inventing new things in the future.D. Lins invention “Crazyer” is designed for disabled people.40. Which ca

42、n be the best title of the passage?A. No pains, no gains. B. Once a geek, always a geek.C. Great minds think alike. D. Geek spirit brings great benefits.D Ask most people anywhere in the world what they want out of life and the reply will probably be: “to be happy.” Ed Deiner, an American psychology

43、 professor, has spent his whole professional life studying what makes people happy, comparing levels of happiness between cultures and trying to find out exactly why we enjoy ourselves. Many people would say that this question does not need an answer. But Professor Deiner has one anyway. “If youre a

44、 cheerful, happy person, your marriage is more likely to last, and youre more likely to make money and be successful at your job. On average, happy people have stronger immune systems, and there is some evidence that they live longer.” So who are the worlds happiest people? It depends on how the wor

45、d is defined. There is individual happiness, the sense of joy we get when we do something we like. But there is also the feeling of satisfaction we get when we know that others respect us and approve of how we behave. According to Professor Deiner, the Western world pursues individual happiness whil

46、e Asia prefers mutual satisfaction. “In the West, the individualistic culture means that your mood matters much more than it does in the East. People ask themselves if they are doing what is fun or interesting. They become unhappy when they cant do any of these things. If you ask people from Japan o

47、r China if they are happy, they tend to look at what has gone wrong in their lives. If not much has gone wrong, then they are satisfied.” People from Spain and other Spanish-speaking countries had the happiest culture, Professor Deiner found. “The biggest cultural difference is to do with pride and

48、shame. Hispanic (西班牙语言的) cultures report much more pride and much less shame than others.” Income also made a big difference to peoples happiness, but only at the lowest levels. Average income earners in the US were much happier than people in poverty. But millionaires were only a little bit happier

49、 than people on average incomes. It seems that money makes us happy when we have enough to feel secure.41. According to the passage, happy people enjoy the following benefits EXCEPT _.A. a long marriage B. better health C. profession success D. respect from others42. In Professor Deiners opinion, _.

50、A. Asians focus more on others respect and approval than westernersB. Westerners care more about mutual satisfaction than AsiansC. Asians have a culture to enjoy individual happiness D. Westerners value individual happiness as much as mutual satisfaction43. What can be inferred from the fifth paragr

51、aph?A. Hispanic cultures lay stress on pride and shame.B. Spanish people take too much pride in themselves.C. Attitude towards pride and shame results in Spanish happiness.D. If you are from Spain, you are the happiest.44. In the last paragraph, the author seems to tell us _.A. Poor people enjoy the

52、 same happiness as millionaires.B. the higher income one gets, the happier life he livesC. Enough money can make us feel safe and happyD. Average income earners live the happiest life45. The passage mainly discusses_.A. cultural differences in happiness B. reasons for happinessC. the happiest cultur

Though it has become a trend for Chinese young people to observe western festivals in various ways, we shouldnt go too far or do something crazy about them but come to understand their real origins or meanings.

Therefore, I advocate that we should know more about the significance of the traditional festivals and make it a law to celebrate them.
