After that, we’re discouraged that we have teenagers to 38 We will certainly be happy when they are out of that young stage. We tell ourselves that our 39 will be complete when we get a nicer car, when we have our 40 house, when we are able to go on a nice vacation, when we retire(退休), when we win the lottery.
The 41 is, there’s no better time to be happy than right now. If not now, 42 ? Your life will always be filled with challenges. It’s best to admit this to yourself and decide to be 43 right now.

Happiness is a(n) 54 , not a purpose. So, work like you don’t need 55 , love like you’ve never been hurt, and dance like no one’s watching.

Are the British people Europeans? This may seem a strange question to Africans and Asians, who tend to think of all white men as Europeans. But the British, when they are in Britain, do not regard themselves as Europeans. The Europeans, to them, are those rather excitable foreigners from the other side of the English Channel, who have never learnt how to speak English. Europe is “the Continent”: a place full of interest for English tourists, but also the source of almost all the wars in which Britain has ever been involved. Thus, although geographically speaking Britain is a part of Europe, yet the fact that it is a separate island has made its people feel very, very insular(具岛国性的). They feel, and in many ways are, different from the rest of Europe, and they sometimes annoy continental nations by failing to support them, or even to understand them, in time of need.
Where did the British people come from? This is an extraordinary interesting question, since they are a mixture of many different races, and all these races invaded Britain at various times from Europe. Nobody knows very much about Britain before the Romans came during the first century B.C, but there had been at least three invasions before that. The first of these was by a dark-haired Mediterranean race called Iberians. The other two were by Celtic tribes: first the Gaels, whose descendants(后裔) are the modern Scots and Irish, some of whom still speak the Gaelic language; and secondly the Britons, who gave their name to the whole island of Britain. These were the people whom the Romans conquered. The Romans gave the Britons a good deal of civilization, but they never settled in Britain in very large numbers, so the British race survived until the overthrow of the Roman Empire by the “barbarians”, i.e. the numerous Germanic tribes which overran the whole of Western Europe.
64. The purpose of the passage is to _______.
A. talk about Europeans
B. discus the origin of British people
C. argue for the superiority of British people
D. compare the Europeans with Africans and Asians
65. It can be known from the passage that ______.
A. most people think white people are Europeans
B. there are many Africans and Asians living in Europe
C. white men are Europeans in the eyes of Africans and Asians
D. the British people think of themselves as Europeans
66. It can be inferred from the passage that ______.
A. Europeans are those who are unable to speak English
B. those who invaded Britain came from the other side of the English Channel
C. Britain is a place full of interest for those excitable foreigners
D. Britain is the source of almost all the wars in Europe
67. Why do the British people feel insular?
A. They are different from those people in the Continent.
B. They sometimes fail to support the continent countries in time of need.
C. They are separated geographically from the Continent.
D. They are considered difficult to understand.
68. Which of the following is most likely to be discussed after this passage?
A. The Germanic tribes which invaded Britain.
B. The civilization the Romans gave Britain.
C. The Romans who did not settle in Britain.
D. The survival of the British people in the first century B.C.
D
Please be advised that Nairobi like any other city has a security and crime problem. However, if you observe the following simple guidelines you will stay safe and have a trouble-free traveling:
1. Do not wear a money belt. This makes you an instant target.
2. Camera of all kinds are a favorite with snatchers. Feel free to use them within the Starehe Campus and the hotel grounds but not in the streets.
3. Ladies handbags are also a regular snatch. Avoid carrying one, and if you must, be alert and hold on to it tightly.
4. Jewelry and even glasses with valuable frames are also often targeted. Bear this in mind.
5. When in a vehicle keep the doors always locked, and the windows slightly open----especially at traffic lights, junctions and in slow moving traffic.
6. Beware of street children, their begging often quickly transforms into something more unpleasant.
7. Stay with the main party all the time and avoid wandering off on you own.

E
When I asked my daughter which item she would keep: the phone, the car, the cooker, the computer, the TV, or her boyfriend; she said “the phone”. Personally, I could do without the phone entirely, which makes me unusual, because the telephone is changing our lives more than any other piece of technology.
Point1 The telephone creates the need to communicate, in the same way that more roads create more traffic. My daughter comes home from school at 4:00 p.m. and then spends an hour on the phone talking to the very people she has been at school with all day. If the phone did not exist, would she have anything to talk about?
Point 2 The mobile phone means that we are never alone. “The mobile saved my life,” says Crystal Johnstone. She had an accident in her Volvo on the A45 between Otley and Skipton. Trapped inside, she managed to make a call that brought the ambulance to her rescue.
Point 3 The mobile removes our secret. It allows marketing manager of Haba Deutsch, Carl Nicolaisen, to ring his sales staff all round the world at any time of day to ask where they are, where they are going, and how their last meeting went.
Point 4 The telephone separates us. Antonella Bramante in Rome says, “We worked in separate offices but I could see him through the window. It was easy to get his number. We were so near---but we didn’t meet for the first two weeks!”
Point 5 The telephone allows us to reach out beyond our own lives. Today we can talk to several complete strangers at the same time on chat lines (at least my daughter does. I wouldn’t know what to talk about). We can talk across the world. We can even talk to astronauts (if you know any) while they are spacewalking. And, with the phone line hooked up to the computer, we can connect the Internet, the biggest library on Earth.
72. How do you understand “Point1 The telephone creates the need to communicate,…”?
A. People don’t communicate if there is no telephone.
B. People communicate because of the creating of the telephone.
C. People communicate more since telephone has been created.
D. People communicate more because of more traffic.
73. Which of the following best shows people’s attitude towards mobile phones?
A. Mobile phones help people deal with the emergency.
B. Mobile phones bring convenience as well as little secret to people.
C. Mobile phones are so important that they should be encouraged.
D. Mobile phones are part of people’s life.
74. It is possible to talk to complete strangers if you want through ______.
A. the TV screen B. a fax machine
C. the phone line hooked up to the computer D. a microphone
75. The best title for this passage is ______.
A. Phone Power B. Kinds of phone
C. How to Use Phones D. Advantage of Phones
