    Do you want to live with a strong sense of peacefulness, happiness, goodness, and self-respect? The collection of happiness actions broadly categorized(把…归类) as "honor" help you create this life of good feelings.
    Here's an example to show how honorable actions create happiness.
    Say a store clerk fails to charge us for an item. If we keep silent, and profit from the clerk's mistake, we would drive home with a sense of sneaky(卑鄙的) excitement. Later we might tell our family or friends about our good fortune. On the other hand, if we tell the clerk about the uncharged item, the clerk would be grateful and thank us for our honesty. We would leave the store with a quiet sense of honor that we might never share with another soul.
    Then, what is it to do with our sense of happiness?
    In the first case, where we don't tell the clerk, a couple of things would happen. Deep down inside we would know ourselves as a type of thief. In the process, we would lose some peace of mind and self-respect. We would also demonstrate(演示) that we cannot be trusted, since we advertise our dishonor by telling our family and friends. We damage our own reputations by telling others. In contrast, bringing the error to the clerk's attention causes different things to happen. Immediately the clerk knows us to be honorable. Upon leaving the store, we feel honorable and our self-respect is increased.  Whenever we take honorable action we gain the deep internal rewards of goodness and a sense of nobility(高尚).
    There is a beautiful positive cycle that is created by living a life of honorable actions. Honorable thoughts lead to honorable actions. Honorable actions lead us to a happier existence. And it's easy to think and act honorably again when we're happy. While the positive cycle can be difficult to start, once it's started, it's easy to continue. Keeping on doing good deeds brings us peace of mind, which is important for our happiness.
    小题1:According to the passage, the positive action in the example contributes to our_______.
    A．self-respect B．financial rewardsC．advertising abilityD．friendly relationship
    小题2:The author thinks that keeping silent about the uncharged item is equal to_______.
    A．lyingB．stealingC．cheatingD．advertising
    小题3:The underlined phrase "bringing the error to the clerk's attention" means_______.
    A．telling the truth to the clerkB．offering advice to the clerk
    C．asking the clerk to be more attentiveD．reminding the clerk of the charged item
    小题4:How will we feel if we let the clerk know her mistake?
    A．We'll be very excited.B．We'll feel unfortunate.
    C．We'll have a sense of honor.D．We'll feel sorry for the clerk.
    小题5:Which of the following can be the best title of this passage?
    A．How to Live TruthfullyB．Importance of Peacefulness
    C．Ways of Gaining Self-respectD．Happiness through Honorable Actions

    I have recently completed my college degree. The last project was called “Smile”. The class was asked to go out to smile at three people and document their reactions（反应）. I am a very friendly person and always smile at everyone and say hello anyway. So, I thought this would be a piece of cake.
    My husband, the youngest son and I went out to McDonald. We were standing in line when all of a sudden everyone around us began to back away. As I turned around I smelled a horrible body odour（气味） and saw two poor homeless men standing behind me. As I looked at the short blue-eyed gentleman closest to me, he was “smiling”. The second man fumbled（摸索）with his hands as he stood behind his friend.
    The young lady at the counter asked him what they wanted. He said, “Coffee is all, Miss,” because that was all they could afford.
    Then I really felt it — I embraced（拥抱）the little man with the blue eyes. That is when I noticed   all eyes in the restaurant were set on me, judging my every action. I smiled and asked two more breakfast meals on and gave them to the men.
    The blue-eyed gentleman looked up at me, with tears in his eyes, and said, “Thank you.”
    I turned in my project. My teacher said, “Can I share this?” I slowly nodded as she got the attention of the class. She began to read and that is when I knew that we as human beings share this need to heal people and to be healed.
    In my own way I had touched the people at McDonald’s and every soul that heard the story in the classroom. But, I graduated with one of the biggest lessons I would ever learn.
    小题1: The underlined part “a piece of cake” in Paragraph 1 means _______.
    A．easyB．embarrassingC．movingD．comfortable
    小题2:Why did people around the author in the McDonald step back?
    A．Because they were very polite to the two men.
    B．Because they were moved by the two men.
    C．Because the two men smelt terrible.
    D．Because the two men seemed unfriendly.
    小题3: Why did the two men only buy coffee?
    A．Because they didn’t have enough money.
    B．Because they didn’t feel hungry.
    C．Because they knew others would help them.
    D．Because they were looked down upon.
    小题4:How did the teacher think of the author’s project?
    A．Hard to believe.B．Interesting to read.
    C．Very puzzling.D．Very satisfying.
    小题5: What did the author think she learn from the story?
    A．A friend in need is a friend indeed
    B．Helping others can bring pleasure to many people.
    C．Nothing is difficult to a willing heart.
    D．Don’t judge people according to their appearance.

    How often one hears children wishing they were grown up, and the old wishing they were young again! Each age has its pleasure and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each agc gives him without wasting any time in uselcss regrets.
    Children is a time when there are few duties to make life hard. If a child has good parents, he is fed, looked after, and loved whatever he may do. It’s impossible for him to be given so much again in his life without having to do anything in return. Besides, life is always giving new things to the child. A child finds pleasure in playing in the rain, or in the snow. His first visit to the seaside makes him wild. But a child has his pains; he is not so free to do as he wishes. He is continually being told not to do this, not to do that, or being punished for what he has done wrong. His life is therefore not perfectly happy.
    When the young man starts to make his own living, he becomes free from the rules of school and parents; but at the time he is forced to accept duties. He can no longer expect others to pay for his food, his clothes and his room, but has to work if he wants to live comfortably. If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry. And if he breaks the law of society as he used to break the laws of his parents, he may go to prison, lf, however, he works hard, keeps out of trouble, and has good health, he can have the great happiness of seeing himself make steady pro-gress in his job and of building up his own position in society.
    Old age has always been thought of as the worst age to be, but it is not necessary for the old to be unhappy. With old age should come wisdom and tile ability to help others with advice wisely given. They can have the joy of seeing their Children making progress in life; they can watch their grandchildren growing up around them and, perhaps, best of all, they can, if their life has been a useful one, feel the happiness of having come through the battle of life safely and of having reached a time when they can lie back and rest, leaving others to continue the fight.
    小题1:The main reason children wish they were grown up, and the old wish they were young again is that ______.
    A．both aren’t satisfied with the weak points at their ages
    B．both enjoy the strong points at the other age by looking back or looking forward
    C．the human beings should be like this
    D．they don’t think both ages are acceptable
    小题2:“Enjoy what each age gives him without wasting time in useless regrets” means ______. 
    A．Enjoy what is given to him by people at his age, feeling regrets
    B．Enjoy himself at his own age, feeling regrets for a waste of time
    C．Make full use of the time he is given at his age instead of regretting having no achievements
    D．Enjoy his own age and took down on the people at other ages
    小题3:“Children is a time when there are few duties to make life hard” means “______”. 
    A．Children shouldn’t be made to live a hard life
    B．All the children won’t have to work for their own living
    C．Children shouldn’t answer for the hard life they are leading
    D．A child bas few duties to try hard to make a living for himself or for his seniors
    小题4: According to the passage, what is a child’s greatest dissatisfaction? 
    A．He thinks he has not got the equal freedom as his seniors.
    B．He thinks he knows less about things than the older do.
    C．He thinks it easy for him to do something wrong.
    D．He thinks the society doesn’t believe in him.

    Attitude is an internal state that influences the choices of personal action made by the individual. Some researchers consider that attitudes come from differences between beliefs and ideas; others believe that attitudes come from emotional states. Here, we focus on the effects of attitudes upon behavior, that is, upon the choices of action made by the individual.
    The kinds of actions taken by human beings are obviously influenced greatly by attitudes. Whether one listens to classical music or rock, whether one obeys the speed limit while driving, whether one encourages one’s husband or wife to express his or her own ideas—all are influenced by attitudes. These internal states are acquired throughout life from situations one is faced with in the home, in the streets, and in the school.
    Of course, the course of action chosen by an individual in any situation will be largely determined by the particulars of that situation. An individual who has a strong attitude of obeying laws may drive too fast when he is in a hurry and no police cars in sight. A child who has a strong attitude of honesty may steal a penny when she thinks no one will notice. But the internal state which remains unchanged over a period of time, and which makes the individual behave regularly in a variety of situations, is what is meant by an attitude.
    Attitudes are learned in a variety of ways. They can result from single incidents, as when an attitude toward snakes is acquired by an experience in childhood at the sudden movement of a snake. They can result from the individual’s experiences of success and pleasure, as when someone acquires a positive attitude toward doing crossword puzzles by being able to complete some of them. And frequently, they are learned by copying other people’s behavior, as when a child learns how to behave toward foreigners by observing the actions of his parents. Regardless of these differences, there is something in common in the learning and modification（修正）of attitudes.
    小题1: According to the passage, attitudes _________.
    A．come from different situations in one’s life
    B．are largely affected by one’s behavior
    C．remain unchanged in one’s daily life
    D．could be chosen according to one’s will
    小题2:The author uses the examples in Paragraph 3 to show _________.
    A．people often make mistakes when they are not noticed
    B．people with good attitudes may sometimes do bad deeds
    C．particulars of a situation may influence an individual’s action
    D．an individual may change his or her attitude fairly easily
    小题3:Which of the following is TRUE about the learning of attitudes?
    A．Attitudes are only learned through one’s success.
    B．Attitudes learned in danger will last longer.
    C．Copying others behavior is not a good idea.
    D．Attitudes can be learned from one’s parents.
    小题4:What would be the best title for the passage?
    A．Differences of Attitudes.
    B．Nature of Attitude.
    C．Choices of Attitudes.
    D．Modification of Attitude.

    My wife passed away a few years ago, and I went through the worst time in my life. I even wanted to kill myself. Just for my kids, I had to continue to live and work as a small town doctor at my medical clinic in Hawaii. My kids had gone to live on the mainland, and I was alone. Then they asked me to have a family trip.
    On our trip, we turned on the TV at the motel and saw the second plane crash into the World Trade Center. Seeing it falling down, I said to my kids：“ I'm going to Afghanistan.”And a few weeks later, International Medical Corps sent me to set up 20 clinics in provinces where people had no health care. In these field clinics surrounded by frightening shoots or deadly bombs ，we were eventually serving 27,000 patients a month in a very busy schedule.Tired and nervous, I gradually had a sense of achievement, a sense of purpose, and my depression went away.
    In the years to follow, I went to Indonesia after the tsunami (海啸), Pakistan after the earthquakes, Sudan after the civil war, and Iraq after more and more bombs. Each time after disasters one after another, hundreds of people were killed, wounded and many more had to flee. We once set up movable clinics in an area with 19,000 refugees,_and it was supposed to hold 13,000 originally. Flu broke out, one of the biggest killers of kids in refugee camps, and it spread like wildfire. Water and food were also serious problems. “Adventure or not？”I often asked myself.
    When my wife passed away, I thought my life was gone. But in reality, it was just getting started. At the end of her life, she went unconscious. I held her head in my hands and told her of all the places we would visit and the exciting adventures we would have.
    I thought about the moment many times during my“adventures”. I didn't know how predictive those words would be，but I knew that she was still with me.
    小题1:Where has the doctor been in the past few years?
    A．Some countries where he could set up clinics.
    B．Some African countries where flu broke out.
    C．The places where the earthquakes happened.
    D．The places that the horrible disasters struck.
    小题2:How would the doctor describe his life after he had worked in Afghanistan?
    A．Tired and troublesome.B．Busy and risky.
    C．Meaningful and helpful. D．Frightening and depressing.
    小题3:The underlined word“ refugees” means people________.
    A．who are robbed, killed, or woundedB．who suffer from flu in movable clinics
    C．who like to take adventuresD．who have lost homes because of disasters
    小题4:Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
    A．The doctor's wife encouraged him to work in foreign countries.
    B．What the doctor said to his wife before her death became reality.
    C．The doctor's adventures made him understand the love of his wife.
    D．With the true love of his wife, the doctor started to change his life.
