Happiness is for everyone. You don ’t need to care about those people who have beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools or those who have nice cars and a lot of money. Why? Because those who have big houses may often feel lonely and those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads in their free time.

In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. When you are in trouble at school, your friends will help you; when you study hard at your lessons, your parents are always taking good care of your life and your health; when you get success, your friends will say congratulations to you; when you do something wrong, people around you will help you to correct it. And when you do something good to others, you will feel happy, too. All those are your happiness. If you notice a bit of them, you can see that happiness is always around you.

Happiness is not the same as money. It is a feeling of your heart. When you are poor, you can also be very happy, because you have something else that can ’t be bought. When you meet with difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy, because you have more chances to challenge(挑戰(zhàn)) yourself. So you can ’t always say you are poor or you have bad luck. As the saying goes, life is like a revolving (旋轉(zhuǎn)的) door. When it closes, it also opens. If you take every chance you get, you can be a happy and lucky person .

1.Those who have big houses may often feel _____.

A. happy B. lonely C. free D. excited

2.What will your friends say to you when you make great progress?

A. Oh, so do I. B. Congratulations.

C. Good luck. D. It ’s just so-so.

3.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

A. People who have cars would never like to walk in the open air.

B. You can get help from others when you are in trouble.

C. You can still be a happy person even if you have little money.

D. Happiness is always around you though difficulties come towards you.

閱讀下面短文，根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，完成下列各題。

Welcome to Youth Radio, your radio. Here we’re proud to introduce three Amazing Kids.

Gina, who is thirteen years old, got the first prize in the “Young Cook of the Year” competition(競(jìng)賽) and she wants to write a recipe book for kids. “I want it to be fun to read and easy enough for children to use,” she says. Gina learned by watching her father, who’s also good at cooking, in the kitchen. She wants to encourage (鼓勵(lì)) other children to cook because everyone needs to eat so it’s a skill that will always be useful!

Seventeen-year-old Brain used to love running until he was hurt in a serious accident three years ago. He lost part of one leg and didn’t even expect to walk again. Now he’s an athlete who has recently taken part in a long race. “After my accident I wanted to give up,” he says. “But now I’m happy to be alive and able to continue running.”

Helen has always been good at science, but she thought it was too difficult to become an inventor. Then she heard about an accident that had happened when a car hit a train in her town. “That gave me an idea,” says the clever sixteen-year-old. It took her over a year to invent a small special machine that tells car drivers when a train is coming. One company is already interested in selling it, so it may be in the shops soon!
