题目内容

One effective way of destroying happiness is to look at something and focus on even the smallest fault. It's like looking at the tiled(铺瓦的) ceiling and concentrating on the space where one tile is 【小题1】 .
Once I heard a bald(秃头的) man said. “Whenever I enter a room,  【小题2】  I see is hair." Once you've   【小题3】 what your missing tile is, explore whether getting it will   【小题4】  make you happy. Then do one of the three things: get it, replace it with a different  【小题5】  , or forget about it and  【小题6】  the tiles in your life that are not missing.
We all know people who have had a relatively  【小题7】  life, yet are often unhappy while people who have suffered a great deal but  【小题8】  remain happy.
The first  【小题9】  is gratitude. All happy people are  【小题10】 . Ungrateful people cannot be happy. We tend to think that being unhappy leads people to  【小题11】  , but it's truer to say that complaining leads to people becoming unhappy.
The second secret, is 【小题12】 that happiness is a byproduct(副产品) of something else. The most obvious 【小题13】 are those pursuits(追求) that give our lives purpose—anything 【小题14】 studying insects to playing baseball. The more passions we have, the more happiness we are  【小题15】 to experience.
Finally, the belief that something permanent goes beyond us and that our  【小题16】  has some larger meaning can help us to feel happier. We   【小题17】 a spiritual faith, or a philosophy of life. Whatever your philosophy, it should 【小题18】  this truth: if you choose to find the 【小题19】 in every situation, you will be blessed, and if you choose to find the awful, you will be cursed. As with happiness itself, this is  【小题20】   your decision to make.

The Law to Keep the Oil Industry under Control

       The Norwegian Government is doing its best to keep the oil industry under control. A new law limits exploration to an area south of the southern end of the long coastline; production limits have been laid down (though these have already been raised); and oil companies have not been allowed to employ more than a limited number of foreign workers. But the oil industry has a way of getting over such problems, and few people believe that the Government will be able to hold things back for long. As on Norwegian politician said last week: “We will soon be changed beyond all recognition.”

       Ever since the war, the Government has been carrying out a programme of development in the area north of the Arctic Circle. During the past few years this programme has had a great deal of success: Tromso（特罗姆瑟[挪威北部港市]）has been built up into a local capital with a university, a large hospital and a healthy industry. But the oil industry has already started to draw people south, and within a few years the whole northern policy could be in ruins.

       The effects of the oil industry would not be limited to the north, however. With nearly 100 percent employment, everyone can see a situation developing in which the service industries and the tourist industry will lose more of their workers to the oil industry. Some smaller industries might even disappear altogether when it becomes cheaper to buy goods from abroad.

       The real argument over oil is its threat to the Norwegian way of life. Farmers and fishermen do not make up most of the population, but they are an important part of it, because Norwegians see in them many of the qualities that they regard with pride as essentially Norwegian. And it is the farmers and the fishermen who are most critical of the oil industry because of the damage that it might cause to the countryside and to the sea.

The Norwegian Government would prefer the oil industry to

A provide more jobs for foreign workers.

B slow down the rate of its development.

C sell the oil it is producing abroad.

D develop more quickly than at present.

The Norwegian Government has tried to

A encourage the oil companies to discover new oil sources.

B prevent oil companies employing people from northern Norway.

C help the oil companies solve many of their problems.

D keep the oil industry to something near its present size.

According to the passage, the oil industry might lead northern Norway to

A the development of industry.

B a growth in population.

C the failure of the development programme.

D the development of new towns.

In the south, one effect to the development of the oil industry might be

A a large reduction on unemployment.

B a growth in the tourist industry.

C a reduction in the number of existing industries.

D the development of a number of service industries.

Norwegian farmers and fishermen have an important influence because

A they form such a large part of Norwegian ideal.

B their lives and values represent the Norwegian ideal.

C their work is so useful to the rest of Norwegian society.

D they regard oil as a threat to the Norwegian way of life.

In today's world, we rely on computers as never before. They are used for everything from ordering a pizza to running hospitals and military defense systems. Banking and credit card information is stored and accessed by computers. So what happens when a computer gets infected with a virus? One effect is that people's access to their e-mail accounts is cut off. A more serious possible consequence is that billions of dollars could be lost.
A virus is a computer program that copies itself onto other programs and infects them. Similar to an easily spread disease, a computer virus goes from computer to computer, either adding to or changing the tasks a program is designed to do.
The first computer viruses were created in the mid '80s and had varying effects. Some caused files to be deleted, or made the letters on the screen appear to fall off. Others displayed a specific message once the computer was turned on.
Viruses today are much more widespread and dangerous than ever before. Perhaps the most damaging to date has been the "I Love You" virus. "I Love You" appeared in May 2000 and has possibly been the most destructive virus in terms of monetary loss.
The virus is released when an attachment to a fake e-mail message is opened. By changing the names of files on computers, "I Love You" makes them difficult to access. It also searches for important personal information, including passwords, which it sends to a web site for others to see.
It is estimated that more than 45 million people in 20 countries have had their computers infected by the "I Love You" virus. Some say the cost of repair and lost business has been more than US$10 billion.
If you own a computer, it is important to keep it in good health by installing an anti-virus program. If updated frequently, it will protect your e-mail access--not to mention your wallet.
68. What does "virus" mean in the article?
A. An easily spread disease.            
B. A contagious (传染的) computer program.
C. An extremely small organism (生物) which causes disease.
D. A parasite (寄生虫) in computer.

C. It is spread through e-mail.                 D. It spreads from web site to web site.

A. To load an up-to-date anti-virus program into our computer 
B. Not to use an e-mail account.
C. To upgrade our computer.

Travel is exciting and summer is a busy period for holiday travel. Many people will travel great distances in airplanes, cars or other vehicles. Experts say people should know about other health problems that can strike when traveling by air.

One of these is a condition called hypoxia (缺氧症). It results from a lack of oxygen to the brain. Experts say the body begins losing oxygen minutes after an airplane leaves the ground. The air pressure in a plane during flight is lower than at sea level. This makes it more difficult for the body to effectively use the same amount of oxygen as it would on the ground. Fewer oxygen molecules （分子） cross the tissues (组织) in the lungs and reach the bloodstream.

The result is a five to twenty percent drop in the amount of oxygen in the blood. This reduces the amount of oxygen that reaches the organs of the body.

One effect of this lack of oxygen to the brain is a headache. When this happens, the heart attempts to fix the situation by beating harder and faster. This can make the traveler feel tired.

These signs of hypoxia are not dangerous in a healthy person. But a drop in oxygen level can cause a health emergency in people with heart or lung problems. They might lose consciousness or even suffer a heart attack.

Experts say that smoking cigarettes and drinking alcoholic liquids also reduce the body’s ability to use oxygen. So they suggest that people not drink alcohol or smoke cigarettes either before or during a flight. They also say persons with heart or lung problems should seek advice from their doctors before flying.

1.The author writes the passage mainly to ___.

A．warn people in airplanes of possible dangers

B．offer some advice on avoiding health problems

C．explain the causes and effects of hypoxia

D．advise people not to smoke or drink alcohol

2.According to the passage, what leads to hypoxia?

A．The brain lacks enough oxygen.

B．The air pressure in a plane is too high

C．Our body needs less oxygen during takeoff.

D．The bloodstream contains no oxygen molecules.

3.The underlined part “fix the situation” means “___”.

A．use more oxygen it needs

B．increase the air pressure

C．reduce the amount of blood

D．bump more blood to the brain

4.Why should passengers not smoke or drink before flying?

A．They weaken the body’s ability to use oxygen.

B．Smoking may pollute the air inside the airplane.

C．Drinking alcohol may raise one’s blood pressure.

D．Drinking is forbidden at the airport.

5.Do you think which the following title is the best title for this passage?

A．Tralling

B．how to travel

C．some suggestions about on the plane while travelling

D．the causes and effects of hypoxia
