Are you seeking happiness today? Many have 41 a variety of sources for their feelings of happiness. Some have put their heart and effort into their work. Too many have turned to drugs and alcohol. Untold numbers have looked for it in the possession of expensive cars, exotic vacation homes, and other popular “toys”. Most of their efforts have a 42 in one common fact: people are looking for a(n) 43 source of happiness. Unfortunately, I believe that happiness escapes many people because they 44 the process and journey of finding it. I have heard many people say that, “I’ll be happy when I get my new promotion.” Or “I’ll be happy when I lose that 45 20 pounds.” The list goes on and on. You probably have a few of your own you could 46 if you wanted. This thinking is 47 because it presupposes (预先设定) that happiness is a “response” to having, being or doing something. In life, we all 48 stimulus (刺激) and response. Stimulus is when a dog barks at you and bares his teeth. Response is when your heart beats faster, your palms get sweaty and you 49 to run. Today, some people think that an expensive car is a stimulus. Happiness is a response. A great paying job is a stimulus. Happiness is a response. A loving relationship is a stimulus. Happiness is a response. This belief 50 us thinking and feeling: “I’ll be happy when...” It has been my finding that actually the 51 is true. I believe that happiness is a stimulus and response is what life brings to those who are truly 52 . When we are happy, we 53 to have more success in our work. When we are happy, people want to be around us and enjoy loving relationships. When we are happy, we more 54 take better care of our bodies and enjoy good health. Happiness is NOT a response -- 55 , it is a stimulus. Happiness is a conscious 56 we make every day of our lives. For unknown reasons to me, many choose to be painful, unsuccessful and angry most of the time. Happiness is 57 something that happens to us after we get something we want -- we usually get things we want 58 we choose to be happy. I have made only one 59 rule for my own happiness: Every day above ground is a GOOD day. 60 , I tend to have a lot of good and happy days continually.
第三部分 阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分） 阅读下列短文，从每题过给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项。 A Chicken feathers are useful, and not just to chickens. Some go into pillows, coats and other products. But countless chicken features go to waste. In the United States, billions of chickens are produced yearly. Most of their features are thrown away. But instead of ending up in landfills (填埋地), some features could find a future in plastics. Scientists in the Washington area have been working with keratin, the main substance (物质) in chicken features. One of the products they have developed is a flowerpot which may look like other flowerpots, but the container breaks down in the earth within one or five years. And as it breaks down, it releases nitrogen (氮) into the soil. The environmentally friendly flowerpot is the work of two researchers Walter Schmidt and Masud Huda. Walter Schmidt has been working to find uses for chicken features since the 1990s. Progress in 2002 showed that plastic made from feathers could be formed like other plastics. He says feathers are much stronger and last longer than another plant material, cellulose (纤维素). “Feathers are about eight times as strong as cellulose. By design, feathers are strong and durable (耐用的).” Walter Schmidt also points out that traditional flowerpots can last much longer. But he wonders if there is really a need. He says most flowerpots are never re-used. “Why would you want a plastic that you use for a year to last for two hundred years? It makes no sense. You want to match the product with the use,” he says. Walter Schmidt and Masud Huda are now adding another chicken product to their flowerpots chicken waste. The waste will add more nutrients to the soil as the pot breaks down. The scientists say they hope their flowerpot will be on the market in a year or two. 61. What is this passage mainly about? A. A new kind if flowerpot will be on the market. B. Billions of chickens are produced yearly in the US. C. Chicken feathers are not only useful to chickens. D. Scientists find new uses for chicken feathers. 62. From Paragraph 2 we know that ______. A. the US produces the most chickens around the world B. most chicken feathers are not made use of in the US at present C. chicken feathers will no longer be taken to landfills quite soon D. all chicken feathers will be made into plastics in the future 63. Which of the following is the main feature of the new flowerpot? A. It is environmentally friendly. B. It can be used for years. C. It looks quite different. D. It is made from waste. 64. Walter Schmidt most probably thinks ______. A. people should re-use the same flowerpot B. people prefer to buy flowerpots which last long C. nowadays most products don’t match their uses D. it is unnecessary for a flowerpot to last long B Just as your kids’ clothes need to be put away and looked after, they should also learn about looking after not only their own things, but the world around them. Now more than ever we are all needing to take steps to make sure we look after our planet. By teaching children at a young age to look after the environment, by doing simple things like putting their rubbish in the box, sorting the rubbish at home into recyclable and non-recyclable, children learn the importance of picking up after themselves and keeping the earth clean. By giving your child a job to do with the recycling such as putting the recycling in the correct box or carrying the green bags when you go shopping, you are giving them something they are responsible for and a job they can be proud to do. Not only are they helping the planet but they are helping you with chores (家庭杂物) around the house. As children get older, recycling is something they will need to be aware of. Like most things, if possible, it is good to get into the habit as early as possible. That way as they get older, recycling will be second nature and not considered extra work or a hassle. When teaching your child about recycling, you can make it a fun activity for you to do together. Recycling also includes things like making good use of unwanted items instead of simply putting that old plastic bottle in the recycle box. Why not make a bird feeder (鸟食罐) or fill it with seeds and create an instrument? You can also use old boxes as canvas to paint on or make dioramas (实景模拟) with. The creative activities are endless and your child will enjoy them. By letting your child know the benefits of recycling for the planet and wildlife, your child can feel like he / she is really doing something good. This is a great thing for kids to experience. 65. What does the passage mainly talk about? A. It’s important to protect the earth. B. There are many benefits of recycling. C. kids can look after themselves. D. Kids should learn to recycle. 66. According to the passage, by learning to recycle, children ______. A. can become environmentally friendly and helpful at home B. will do all the shopping in place of their parents C. can totally prevent our planet from being polluted D. will never throw away rubbish in their daily life 67. The underlined word “hassle” in Paragraph 4 can be best replaced by ______. A. item B. trouble C. job D. prize 68. In the writer’s opinion, recycling ______. A. will be the key to the protection of the planet B. has become popular with parents and teens C. is fun for parents and their children to do together D. is ignored by most parents and children C Eddie’s father used to say he’d spent so many years by the ocean, breathing seawater. Now, away from the ocean, in the hospital bed, his body began to look like a beached fish. His condition went from fair to stable and from stable to serious. Friends went from saying, “He’ll be home in a day.” to “He’ll be home in a week.” In his father’s absence, Eddie helped out at the pier (码头), working evenings after his taxi job. When Eddie was a teenager, if he ever complained or seemed bored with the pier, his father would shout, “What? This isn’t good enough for you?” And later, when he’d suggested Eddie take a job there after high school, Eddie almost laughed, and his father again said, “What? This isn’t good enough for you?” And before Eddie went to war, when he’d talked of marrying Marguerite and becoming an engineer, his father said, “What? This isn’t good enough for you?” And now, regardless of all that, here he was, at the pier, doing his father’s labor. Parents rarely let go of their children, so children let go of them. They move on. They move away. It is not until much later, as the heart weakens, that children understand: their stories, and all their accomplishments, sit on top of the stories of their mothers and fathers, stones upon stones, beneath the waters of their lives. Finally one night, at his mother’s urging, Eddie visited the hospital. He entered the room slowly. His father, who for years refused to speak to Eddie, now lacked the strength to even try. “Don’t sweat it, kid,” the other workers told him. “Your old man will pull through. He’s the toughest man we’ve ever seen.” When the news came that his father had died, Eddie felt the emptiest kind of anger, the kind that circles in its cage. In the weeks that followed, Eddie’s mother lived in a confused state. She spoke to her husband as if he were still there. She yelled at him to turn down the radio. She cooked enough food for two. One night, when Eddie offered to help with the dishes, she said, “Your father will put them away.” Eddie put a hand on her shoulder. “Ma,” he said, softly, “Dad’s gone.” “Gone where?” 69. In Paragraph 4, the writer indicates that ______. A. children wouldn’t have achieved so much without their parents’ support B. children can never understand how much their parents have devoted to them C. children like moving away from their parents D. children often feel regretful because they leave their parents 70. The underlined sentence probably means “______”. A. Don’t let him down B. Don’t touch it C. Don’t give it up D. Don’t worry about it 71. Which of the following shows the right order of the story? a. Eddie’s father died. b. Eddie worked as a taxi driver c. Eddie married Marguerite d. Eddie was bored with his father’s job A. b, c, d, a B. d, c, b, a C. b, a, c, d D. d, c a b 72. From the last part of the passage, we learn that ______. A. Eddie and his wife lived in his mother’s apartment B. Eddie’s mother missed her husband so much that she was at a loss C. Eddie’s mother liked to listen to the radio D. Eddie often helped his mother wash the dishes D John H. Johnson was born in a family in Arkansas City in 1918. His father died in an accident when John was six. He was reaching high school age, but his hometown offered no high school for the blacks. Fortunately he has a strong-willed and caring mother. John remembers that his mother told him many times, “Son, you can be anything you really want to be if you just believe.” She told him not to be dependent on others, including his mother. “You have to earn success,” said she, “All the people who work hard don’t succeed, but the only people who do succeed are those who work hard.” These words came from a woman with less than a third grade education. She also knew that believing and working hard don’t mean everything. So she worked hard as a cook for two years to save enough to take her son to Chicago. Chicago in 1933 was not the Promised Land that black southerners were looking for. John’s mother could not find work. But here John could go to school, and here learned the power of words—as an editor of a newspaper. His wish was to publish a magazine for the blacks. While others discouraged him, John’s mother offered him more words to live by: “Nothing beats a failure but a try.” She also let him sell her furniture to get the 500 dollars he needed to start the Negro magazine. It’s natural that difficulties and failures followed John closely until he became very successful. He always keeps his mother’s words in mind. “Son, failure is not in your dictionary.” Now John H. Johnson is one of the 400 richest people in America—worth 150 million dollars. 73. The underlined sentence in the fifth paragraph means ______. A. only by trying can you get out of failure B. a failure is difficult to beat, even if you try C. if you try, you will surely succeed D. a try is always followed by a failure 74. We can learn from this passage that John’s mother ______. A. thought one could be whatever one wanted to be B. believed one would succeed without working hard C. didn’t depend on others or give up easily D. thought success only lied in a strong faith 75. What can be inferred from this passage? A. John’s father died in an accident during the war. B. John’s mother was caring for him. C. If someone wants to be successful, he should always stand firm. D. Chicago was not the Promised Land for the black southerners in 1933. 第II卷（请将答案填写在答卷上） 第四部分 任务型阅读（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分） 请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入最恰当的单词。 注意：请将答案写在答题卷上相应题号的横线上。每个空格只填1个单词。 The need for effective public speaking will almost certainly touch you sometime in your life. When it does, you want to be ready. But even if you never give another speech in your life, you still have much to gain from studying public speaking. Your speech class will give you training in researching topics, organizing your ideas, and presenting yourself skillfully. The training is invaluable for every type of communication. There are many similarities between public speaking and daily conversation. The three major goals of public speaking—to inform, to persuade, to entertain—are also the three major goals of everyday conversation. In conversation, almost without thinking about it, you employ a wide range of skills. You organize your ideas logically. You tailor your message to your audience. You tell a story for maximum impact. You adapt to feedback from your listener. These are among the most important skills you will need for public speaking. Of course, public speaking is also different from conversation. First, public speaking is more highly structured than conversation. It usually imposes strict time limitations on the speaker, and it requires more detailed preparation than does ordinary conversation. Second, speechmaking requires more formal language. Listeners react negatively to speeches loaded with slang, jargon, and bad grammar. Third, public speaking demands a different method of delivery. Effective speakers adjust their voices to the larger audience and work at avoiding distracting physical mannerism and verbal habits. One of the major concerns of students in any speech class is stage fright. Actually, most successful speakers are nervous before making a speech. Your speech class will give you an opportunity to gain confidence and make your nervousness work for you rather than against you. You will take a big step toward overcoming stage fright if you think positively, choose speech topics you really care about, prepare thoroughly, and concentrate on communicating with your audience. Like many students over the years, you too can develop confidence in your speechmaking abilities. The speech communication process as a whole includes seven elements—speaker, message, channel, listener, feedback, interference, and situation. The speaker is the person who initiates a speech transaction. Whatever the speaker communicates is the message, which is sent by means of a particular channel. The listener receives the communicated message and may provide feedback to the speaker. Interference is anything that impedes the communication of a message, and the situation is the time and place in which speech communication occurs. The interaction of these seven elements is what determines the outcome in any instance of speech communication. Because speechmaking is a form of power, it carries with it heavy ethical responsibilities. Ethical speakers use sound means to achieve sound goals. They do this by being well informed about their subjects, by being honest in what they say, by using sound evidence, and by employing valid reasoning. Title: The Art of Public Speaking
