B

Are you happy? Do you remember a time when you were happy? Are you seeking happiness today?

Many have sought a variety of sources for their feelings of happiness.Some have put their heart and efforts into their work.Too many have turned to drugs and alcohol.Meanwhile, untold numbers have looked for it in the possession of expensive cars, exotic(異國的)vacation homes and other popular “toys”. Most of their efforts have a root in one common fact: people are looking for a lasting source of happiness.

Unfortunately, I believe that happiness escapes from many people because they misunderstand the 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 lose that extra 20 pounds.” It is dangerous because it accepts that happiness is a “response” to having, being or doing something.

       In life, we all experience stimulus(激勵(lì)) and response.Today, some people think that an expensive car is stimulus.Happiness is a response.A great paying job is stimulus.Happiness is a response.A loving relationship is 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 but 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.

61.From the second paragraph, we know too many people______.

       A.a(chǎn)re not happy when they work hard

       B.a(chǎn)re not happy when they drink or take drugs

       C.a(chǎn)re happy when they possess their own expensive cars

       D.a(chǎn)ll desire exotic vacation homes

       A.they think happiness is rooted in their deep heats

       B.they get what they want to have

       C.they get a great paying job

       D.they get an expensive car

63.Which f the following is right according to the author?

      A.If you want to get what you want, you first choose to be happy.

       B.We should try to get more and then we’ll be happy.

       C.Most people today are happy.

       D.Work is a necessary part in our daily life.

科目:高中英語 來源:2011年山東省高二上9月質(zhì)量檢測(英語) 題型:閱讀理解

Catherine Destivelle is a rock star. She loves rock, but she can’t sing or play the guitar! She is a rock climber and a big star in France and Italy. She is the most famous woman climber in the world because she often climbs without ropes. She climbs in many countries but most often in the French Alps near Chamonix, where she lives. She started climbing near her home in Paris when she was five. Then, at fourteen, she joined the French Alpine Club to learn more, but immediately she climbed better and more quickly than the older members of the club. She won her first competition in Italy in 1995.

Three years ago she found a new route up the Dru Mountain near Chamonix. The climb took eleven days and for four days the snow was so heavy that she could not move. Last year other climbers tried to follow the new Destivelle Route, but they failed. They are going to try again this year.

People always ask her about her climbing. She says, “I climb because I’m in love with mountains. I like touching the rock and reading the face of the rock. I like it a lot. I felt at home on the side of a mountain. I prepare well before I go, so I’m never worried.”

Catherine chooses new mountains from books—like buying from a shopping catalogue(目錄)! “I see a nice mountain and I go to climb it!” Her next mountain is in Pakistan. She is going there next month. “It’s much bigger than the Dru, so it’s going to take longer to climb. An American climber, Jeff Lowe, is coming with me to help.”

1.Catherine Destivelle is called ‘a(chǎn) star’ because ________.

A. she won a competition in 1995        B. she loves rocks

C. she’s a famous woman climber         D. she found a new route up to the Dru Mountain

2.She had great trouble finding a new route up the Dru Mountain because _______.

A. she lost her way                             B. the climb took 11 days

C. she needed help from an American climber    D. there was heavy snow

3.On the side of a mountain she feels _______.

A. independent    B. easy and happy     C. energetic and challenged   D. nervous

4.We can infer from the passage people often ask her “________”.

A. Why do you like climbing?                 B. Are you in love with an American climber?

C. Do you enjoy reading books on mountains?    D. What do you do before you go climbing?
