13．A little girl whose parents had died lived with her grandmother and slept in an upstairs bedroom．
One night there was a fire in the house and the grandmother died while trying to rescue the child．The fire spread quickly，and the situation was terrible．
Neighbors called the fire department，then stood helplessly by，unable to enter the house because flames blocked all the entrances．The little girl appeared at an upstairs window，crying for help，just as word spread among the crowd that the firefighters would be delayed a few minutes because they were all at another fire．
Suddenly，a man appeared with a ladder，put it up against the side of the house and disappeared inside．When he reappeared，he had the little girl in his arms．He delivered the child to the waiting arms below，then disappeared into the night．
An investigation revealed that the child had no living relatives，and weeks later a meeting was held in the town hall to determine who would take the child into their home and bring her up．
A teacher said she would like to raise the child．She pointed out that she could ensure her a good education．A farmer offered her an upbringing（教养） on his farm．He pointed out that living on a farm was healthy and satisfying．Others spoke，giving their reasons why it was to the child's advantage to live with them．
Finally，the town's richest resident rose and said，"I can give this child all the advantages that you have mentioned here，plus money and everything that money can buy．"
Throughout all this，the child remained silent，her eyes on the floor．
"Does anyone else want to speak？"asked the meeting chairman．A man came forward from the back of the hall．He walked slowly and appeared to be in pain．

Paragraph 1：
When he got to the front of the room，he stood directly in front of the little girl and held out his arms．His hands and arms were terribly scarred．The little girl cried out，"This is the man who rescued me!"With a leap，she threw her arms around the man's neck．She buried her face in his shoulder and sobbed for a few moments．Then she looked up and smiled，stating happily she would live with him．
Paragraph 2：
When asked about her choice，the girl gave people the reasons firmly．She said in a low but determined voice，"I really desire to get a good education that will give me chances to live my dreams．Besides，I know that money means a lot to me since I have no relatives to rely on．But it's the man who saved my life when I was desperately facing a fire like that．Without him，I wouldn't be here，waiting for a new choice．I hope that I can do whatever I can to pay back his kindness．

10．Rainy days don't have to get you down，a happiness expert has claimed．
Paul Dolan，Professor of Behavioral Science at the London School of Economics，said that people only feel miserable in bad weather because they think about it too much．Studies have shown that people who live in warm，sunny climates are no happier than those in chilly，wet climates，he says．
So the British talking about the weather may be making us gloomier（沮丧的） than the weather itself．
He said："A study was done that measured the happiness levels of people in California compared to the North West．
"They expected that people in California would be happier because it is more sunny，but they found that levels of happiness were exactly the same．
"If it is sunny every day you get used to it and the sunshine doesn't make you any happier．
"Most of the time the weather doesn't affect our well-being at all．But when we think about it，and think that it does，that's when we get miserable．"
In his new book，Happiness By Design，Dolan argues that we can think ourselves happy by taking our attention away from what makes us sad．
"Most of our anxieties come from what might be，"he argues．"If you want to be happier，pay attention to the things that make you feel good．"
He also claimed that a problem shared was not always a problem halved．He claimed that humans are actually very good at being able to get over tragedy and loss．
Professor Dolan also admitted for the first time that he had a stammer（口吃），which had made his early life miserable．He claimed it only got better when he learned not to pay attention to his speech problem．
"Things are never as bad as you imagine them being，"he said．
29．What does the underlined word"miserable"in the second paragraph mean？B
A．Good．
B．Unhappy．
C．Cheerful．
D．Confident．
30．People in CaliforniaC compared to people in the North West．
A．are much happier              
B．can't enjoy sunny days
C．are more used to sunny days     
D．have lower levels of happiness
31．What is Dolan's suggestion for being happy？B
A．Don't think too much about yourself．
B．Don't focus on what makes you sad．
C．Avoid comparing yourself to others．
D．Avoid doing many miserable things．
32．Where could this passage have been taken from？A
A．A report．
B．A notice．
C．A poster．
D．A questionnaire．
4．Learning to Accept
I learned how to accept life as it is from my father．However，he did not teach me acceptance when he was strong and （46）C，but rather when he became older and had illness．
My father was once a strong man who loved being active，but a terrible disease took all that away．Now he can no longer walk，and he must sit quietly in a chair all day．Even talking is（47）B．One night，I went to visit him．with my sisters．We started talking about life，and I told them about one of my（48）A．I said that we must very often give things up as we grow-our youth，our beauty，and our friends-but it always seems that after we give something up，we （49）D something new in its place．Then suddenly my father spoke up．He said，"But，Peter，I gave up everything!What did I get？"I thought and thought，but I couldn't think of anything to say．（50）B，he answered his own question："I won the love of my family，"I looked at my sisters and saw tears in their eyes，along with hope and thankfulness．
I was also （51）Aby his words．After that，when I began to feel irritated （愤怒的）at someone，I would remember his words and become （52）B．If he could replace his great pain with a feeling of love for others，then I should be able to give up my small irritations．（53）D，I learned the power of acceptance from my father．
Sometimes I （54）Awhat other things I could have learned from him if I had listened more carefully when I was a boy．For now，though，I am grateful for this one（55）C．

11．My wife and I had just opened up a pet sitting business earlier that year．Our customers had slowly risen from three to thirty a month．We were busy through those hot summer months，driving between visits．Our services were strictly held at the pet owner's home．It was almost too busy for the two of us，but we were making good money!
We asked pet owners new to our services to phone two weeks ahead so we had enough time to meet the owners and pets at their homes and make any following meetings before the owner leaves．
One day，we decided to take on a new customer just two days before they would leave．We met the family，filled in a form，and spent some time with their dog，Hercules．He playfully jumped on us and touched our hands and arms using his tongue．The family laughed as he did this，showing us that he was very loving．
Two days later I appeared at the house，alone．I came up to Hercules and said hello happily．I filled up his water bowl and cleaned any messes he made．Meanwhile，he was so lovely sitting beside．I thought this would be the good picture to send to the owners，a usual service．After the light and"click"sound went off，Hercules rushed at me．I didn't know what had just happened until I noticed the drops of blood．I ran out and did the only thing-calling my wife．
Then I went to neighbors for help．My wife arrived after ten minutes．The helpful neighbor and my wife led Hercules back into his pen （圈）．Then my husband and I took off to the hospital．
I must have looked like I was shot when I walked into the hospital．The nurses quickly moved me to a room．I asked the doctor in a weak but playful manner，"Am I going to die？"He replied，"Finally．"

8．My friend BJ Gallagher told me a great story recently，about her own experience with resentment （愤恨）．She once worked as the training manager for a large newspaper，where she found the corporate culture extremely frustrating．The company was a hundred years old and their past success had blinded them to the need for change．Finally，after butting heads with several senior executives （主管） many times，she left the company．But she found that she hadn't left her resentment，frustration，and anger behind when she resigned．
"I finally decided to write about my experiences and my feelings at the newspaper．I wanted to be rid of that company and those people，once and for all．So I wrote and I wrote．It wasn't just a story that poured out； it was a whole book!We called it A peacock in the Land of Penguins．I was the peacock and those newspaper executives were the penguins．"
"It took me several more years to finally get over my negative emotions．Through a lot of soul-searching and reflection，I finally was able to let go of my resentment．I came to see that there was nothing personal in the way they treated me，and they were good people doing what they thought best for the company．I was the one who had made it personal．I thought they were making my life miserable on purpose．"
"Finally，the time came when I decided to make amends （弥补） for the sharp，angry things I had said about the company．I invited my former boss to dinner and made my apology．It was a great healing process for me．I finally felt free of the resentment that had been eating me up．"
"What was the final outcome？"I asked her．
"Gratitude，"she replied．"Not only wasn't I resentful any more，I was grateful to the company．If I hadn't had those painful experiences，I would never have written a book．And the book became hugely successful-now published in 21languages； it transformed my business．"

I remember a time when a bunch of us were playing baseball behind Mrs．Ferguson's house．I hit one pitch just right and …slam!It ended up breaking Mrs．Ferguson's kitchen window!We all （37）A!
After I got home，I told Grandpa about it．He knew we had been（38）Cmany times about the dangers of playing where we shouldn't．（39）Dhe just listened．
