【题目】Where is the world’s happiest place? The answer is Denmark, according to the 2016 World Happiness Report.
Denmark is neither the richest nor the biggest country. So, what makes its 5.7 million people so happy?
The country is famous for its welfare system(福利体系), that includes health care and education. But besides that, the main reason Danish people are so happy is because of their lifestyle.
Have you heard of the word “hygge”?In English, it can be translated into comfort. But hygge is more than that-having a tasty meal with family, talking with friends under the sunshine on weekends, enjoying music, or having a movie night. All these things can be called hygge, which is Danish people’s everyday life.
Danish people also have a healthy habit-riding bikes. In Denmark’s capital, Copenhagen, bikes are used about 50 percent of the time on the way to school or work. Biking is not only helpful to protect the environment. It is also good for people’s health. Just 30 minutes of biking every day adds about one to two years to person’s lifetime.
Trust is also important for Danish people. They trust others and people they don’t even know. In Aarhus, the second biggest city of Denmark, you can see people buy flowers even when the owner isn’t there. People just put money in the empty flowerpot. Trust helps make people happy.
“The Danish have no great expectations about what they will do or what will happen to them,” Kaire Christensen, a university teacher said, “They are happy with what they have.”

【题目】 When the great library of Alexandria (亚历山大图书馆) burned, the story goes, one book was saved. But it was not a valuable book, and so a poor man, who could read a little, bought it for very little money.
The book wasn't very interesting, but between its pages there was something very interesting indeed. Itwas a thin strip of animal skin on which was written the secret of the“Touchstone (试金石)”! The touchstone was asmall pebble (鹅卵石) that could turn any common metal into pure gold.
The writing explained that it was lying among thousands and thousands of other pebbles that looked exactly like it. But the secret was this: The real stone would feel warm, while common pebbles were cold.
So the man sold his few belongings, bought some simple supplies, camped on the seashore, and began testing pebbles. He knew that if he picked up common pebbles and threw them down again because they were cold, he might pick up the same pebble hundreds of times. So, when he felt one that was cold, he threw it into the sea. He spent a whole day doing this but none of them was the touchstone. Yet he went on and on this way. Pick up a pebble. Cold—throw it into the sea. Pick up another. Throw it into the sea. The days continued overa long period of time.
One day, however, about mid-afternoon, he picked up a pebble and it was warm. He threw it into the seabefore he realized what he had done. He had formed such a strong habit of throwing each pebble into the seathat when the one he wanted came along, he still threw it away.
So it is with opportunity (机会). Unless we are cautious (小心的,谨慎的), it's easy to fail to recognize(识别) an opportunity when it is in hand and it's just as easy to throw it away.
【1】According to the story, the touchstone_______.
A.is a big pebbleB.feels coldC.is magicD.is pure gold
【2】The man threw pebbles into the sea_______.
A.to test how far he could throwB.to practice throwing pebbles
C.to avoid picking up the same pebbleD.to express his disappointment
【3】What message does the story want to express?
A.Good habits can lead to success.
B.Habits can only hold you back.
C.Opportunity prefers slow but strong mind.
D.Opportunity only visits the ready and cautious mind.
