    Impossible cases are not forever. While it is impossible for one person, it is possible for another. In a word, everything is possible.
    Someone says, “Success belongs to those who can look at the complex challenges offered by the world as inspiration.” So your challenges are golden opportunities for success. How can there be miracles if there are no obstacles? How will you chase the storm if there is no storm? You need challenges to reveal your ability. Success doesn’t come out of nothing; success comes from the problems you face. Those who refuse to give in come out smiling.
    Robert X. Perez says, “The seeds of success spring from failure’s ashes.” Failure is not defeat; it is the pointer to do better than what you just did. You have to know that you are in a constant study of life. What you face is for your training. Samuel Aidoo says, “Each failure is simply another chapter in the story of our lives. To fail is to understand what not to do. Remember it and don’t give up until your goal is achieved.”
    What do you do when you face difficulty? Yeah, life is difficult, but you do not give up. Have a positive and calm outlook on your circumstances(状况) and make the best of them. You may learn something new. You can develop mental toughness. Mental toughness means to be able to see the long-term gains rather than be put off by short-term pains. Once you have this toughness, you have the winning edge(优势).
    The only things in life you ever really regret are the chances you didn’t take. You will regret when you see the consequences of not seizing the opportunities when they arose. Take chances every day!

    Every person has some unforgettable experiences in his life .Some will remain in his heart as instructive stories to his life. I believe that we often tell ourselves the stories in order to keep our sanity(通情达理). These stories stay inside ourselves.
    Many of the stories that I have kept inside myself are in the   36  of lessons that have taught me something about life. These lessons are 37 to carry with me. They require no outside   38  to store them in. No one can   39  me of them. They 40   their freshness without having to be renewed. And I can offer them to others without 41 them myself.
    I remember there is a lesson which is about a little girl who was   42   from a serious disease. Her only chance of  43  was to have a blood transfusion(输血)  44  her five-year-old brother. The doctor asked the little boy 45   he would be willing to give his 46   to his sister. He took a 47  breath and said he would do it if it would save her life.
    As the transfusion took place, he lay in bed next to his sister and smiled as he watched the color 48 to her cheeks. Then his   49  disappeared. He looked up at the doctor and asked in a trembling   50  . “Will I start to  51  right away?”
    Being so  52 , the lovely little boy had  53  the doctor. He thought he was going to die after he gave blood to his sister.
    This was my lesson in “ 54  ”. I learned that a candle loses  55 by lighting another candle.

    After 21 years of marriage, my wife wanted me to take another woman out to dinner.   36  woman was my mother, who has been a widow for 19 years, but my work had made   37  impossible to visit her very often. That night I called to   38  her to go out for dinner.“What’s wrong? Are you   39 ?”she asked. “I thought that it would be   40  to spend some time with you. Just the two of us,”I answered. She thought about it   41  moment, and agreed.
    That Friday after work,   42  I drove to pick her up, I was a bit nervous. When I arrived at her house, I   43  that, she, too, seemed to be   44  about our date. She had curled her hair and was wearing the dress that she had worn to   45  her last wedding anniversary.
    We went to a restaurant that,   46  not elegant, was very nice and cozy. When I read the menu, Mom sat there   47  at me. A nostalgic(怀旧的)smile was   48  her lips. During the dinner, we had a(an)   49  conversation—nothing special but catching up on(了解)recent events of each other’s life.
    A few days   50 , my mother died of a heart attack. It happened so suddenly that I didn’t have a chance to do   51  for her. Sometime later, I received an envelope with a note   52 “You will never know what that night meant to me. I’m looking forward to the   53  dinner. I love you, Son.”
    At that moment, I understood the importance of saying in time“I LOVE YOU”. Nothing in life is more important than your   54 . Give them the time they deserve, because these things cannot be   55  till“some other time”.

    Unfortunately, I believe that happiness escapes mostly because they misunderstand 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 earn that extra 20 pounds.” The list goes on and on. You probably have a few of your own you could add if you want.
    This thinking is dangerous because it presupposes that happiness is a “response” to having, being or doing something. In life, we all experience stimulus 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 prepare 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 leaves us thinking and feeling: “I’ll be happy when…”
    It has been my finding that actually the opposite is true. I believe that happiness is a stimulus and response is what life brings to those who are truly happy. When we are happy, we tend 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 naturally take better care of our bodies and enjoy good health. Happiness is NOT a response — rather, it is a stimulus.
    Happiness is a conscious choice we make every day of our lives. For unknown reason to me, many choose to be painful, unsuccessful and angry most of the time. Happiness is not something that happens to us after we get something we want — we usually get things we want AFTER we choose to be happy.
    I have made only one simple rule for my own happiness: Every day above ground is a GOOD day. Therefore, I tend to have a lot of good (and happy) days continually.
    小题1:The second paragraph mainly tells us that people seek happiness_______.
    A．in the same wayB．in different waysC．by working hardD．by taking drugs
    小题2: What does the underlined phrase “This thinking” refer to?
    A．The thinking of being promoted.
    B．The giving up of happiness.
    C．The process and journey of finding happiness.
    D．The misunderstanding of happiness.
    小题3:The underlined word “stimulus” in para.4 probably means_______.
    A．something causes an actionB．something helps to expand
    C．attentionD．improvement
    小题4: The purpose of the author in writing this passage is to________.
    A．tell people how to enjoy happiness
    B．encourage people to seek happiness
    C．express his attitude towards happiness
    D．criticize the wrong ideas about happiness
